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-applix2An R/2 ID indicating which SAP applications are installed.

Spool Parameters Spool parameters are passed from the runtime environment 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 system fields of the same name. This information is redundant and should not be used.
