The first column indicates how you can use the field in an ABAP program:

	The system field is set by the runtime environment. You can both use and change its value in the ABAP program to affect the runtime behavior of the program.
	The system field must be set from the ABAP program. After that, it can be used by the runtime environment and within your program.
	The system field is for internal use only, and must not be used in ABAP programs.
	The system field is obsolete. No values are assigned to it, and it must not be used in ABAP programs.

"Name" stands for the component name. "Type" and "Length" are the ABAP Dictionary type and length of the field. The "Use" column indicates the contexts in which the system fields can be set, and the "Description" column contains a short description of the field's function.
