It is a semantic characteristics of a table field Data elements appear as objects in the dictionary. Because they are objects
in their own right, you can
reuse data elements within the same table or among fields in several tables.

- Domain name
- Field label
- F1 documentation : TCODE – SE61.
Type name of document and select document class & language. Use this document name as a reference to
link with another document in which you have selected a text which is to be hyperlinked. Insert -> link -> document
class, name.
