Copy fields from one structure/table into another structure/table

Introduction:
Today apparently, I found that we can copy fields from one structure/table into another structure/table while creating/changing it.
Here are the steps.
Steps:
1.     Go to transaction SE11, enter the table/structure name. Click on change.

2.     The table maintenance screen will appear.
3.     Go to Edit->Transfer Fields.
4.     Below pop up window will appear. Enter the table/structure name and click on “Selection” if you want to select specific fields or click “Copy All” if you want to copy all fields of the table/structure.
5.     Here I have clicked “Selection”. Below screen will appear.
6.     Select the fields and click copy.
7.     Below message will appear at eth status bar.
8.     Put a cursor where you want to copy the fields and click paste as below or right click and paste.
9.     The selected fields will appear.
Note: Here the Key and Initial Values also copied. So change it as per the requirement.
10.  Activate the table.
Output:
Summary: In this way we can copy fields from one table/ structure into another table/ structure
