Obsolete System Fields ITOC
Former System Fields The following system fields are obsolete and should no longer be used. Many originate from the R/2 era. The transition from R/2 to R/3 retained some system fields which are no longer provided with data. NameTypeLengthContent sy-applix2In R/2, ID for which SAP applications are installed. No longer filled. sy-batzdc1In R/2, ID for daily background scheduling. No longer filled. sy-batzmc1In R/2, ID for monthly background scheduling. No longer filled. sy-batzoc1In R/2, ID for single background scheduling. No longer filled. sy-batzsc1In R/2, ID for immediate background scheduling. No longer filled. sy-batzwc1In R/2, ID for weekly background scheduling. No longer filled. sy-brep4c4In R/2, ID for immediate spool output for background processing. No longer filled. sy-bspldc1In R/2, ID for immediate spool output for background processing. No longer filled. sy-ccursp9In R/2, rate specification / result field from CURRENCY CONVERSION. No longer filled. sy-ccurtp9In R/2, table rate from CURRENCY CONVERSION. No longer filled. sy-cdated-In R/2, rate date from CURRENCY CONVERSION. No longer filled. sy-ctablc4In R/2, rate table from CURRENCY CONVERSION. No longer filled. sy-ctypec1In R/2, rate type from CURRENCY CONVERSION. No longer filled. sy-dcsysc4Dialog system of the R/2 system. No longer filled. sy-fmkeyc3Former function code menu. No longer filled. sy-locdbc1Local database, not implemented. sy-locopc1Local database operation, not implemented. sy-lstatc16Program-driven name for list levels. Can be filled with values when lists are created in the ABAP program. The value that applies when a list is completed is stored with the list. After an interactive list event, sy-lstat is set to the value assigned to it when the list where the event occurred was created. sy-lstat is no longer maintained and should therefore no longer be used. sy-macdbc4Previously, name of file for matchcode access. No longer filled. sy-markyc1Current line letter for the obsolete statement MARK from the R/2 system. sy-msglic60Not documented. No longer filled. sy-pagcti-In R/2, maximum number of pages per list. No longer filled. sy-prefxc3Prefix for background jobs. No longer filled. sy-sfnamc30Not documented. sy-sponrn10In R/2, spool files were processed using the statement TRANSFER, which also set sy-sponr. No longer filled. sy-tfdsnc8Former name of the external repository file for extracts. No longer filled. sy-tmaxli-Former maximum number of entries in an internal table. No longer filled. sy-tnamec12Former name of an internal table after a read/write.

No longer used. sy-winx2i-In R/2, window coordinates in details lists in a GUI window. No longer used. sy-winy1i-In R/2, window coordinates in details lists in a GUI window. No longer used. sy-winy2i-In R/2, window coordinates in details lists in a GUI window. No longer used.
Spool Parameters Spool parameters are passed from the runtime framework to the spool system in a structure of type PRI_PARAMS. Before this structure was introduced, system fields were used. When spooling is activated today, a subset of the structure PRI_PARAMS is still written to identically named system fields. This information is redundant and should not be used.
