Welcome Back :

SAP Consultants, whether internal or external to an organization, rely on a wide variety of resources to get their job done.  When it comes to SAP ACS Warranty Management related work, it takes very special resources to get the SAP Programs and SAP Applications to work correctly. 

Find the Right SAP Table

Because the implementation of SAP ACS Warranty Management involves the creation of many SAP tables, it is often difficult for SAP Consultants to find the right SAP ECC (SAP ERP Central Component) tables they need.  That's why we created a list of all the tables in a SAP system you will typically need to know about.  Of course, SAP ECC (some but not all of these exist in the SAP ERP) has many more tables, but that's why this highly specialized list of tables is necessary.  To help you quickly find the relevant tables.  You will just to remember the T Codes (SE11 and SE80) to get to these and start working on them.
