    Overview:
    The SAP transaction code MC21 is used to create an information structure in the SAP system. An information structure is a collection of fields that are used to store and analyze data. It is used to store data in a structured way and can be used for reporting and analysis. 
    
    Functionality: 
    The MC21 transaction code allows users to create an information structure in the SAP system. This includes defining the fields that will be included in the structure, setting up the data sources, and assigning the structure to a specific application. The information structure can then be used for reporting and analysis purposes. 
    
    Step-by-step How to Use: 
    1. Enter the transaction code MC21 in the command field. 
    2. Enter a name for the information structure in the “Name” field. 
    3. Select the type of information structure you want to create from the drop-down menu. 
    4. Define the fields that will be included in the structure by entering their names and descriptions in the “Fields” tab. 
    5. Set up the data sources for the information structure by entering their names and descriptions in the “Data Sources” tab. 
    6. Assign the information structure to a specific application by selecting it from the drop-down menu in the “Application” tab. 
    7. Save your changes by clicking on “Save” button at the top of the screen. 
    
    Other Recommendations:

This can be done by running a test report or query using the information structure as a source of data. Additionally, users should ensure that they have sufficient authorization to use this transaction code before attempting to create an information structure.
