Adhoc query----Selection

hi,
in the adhoc query, for a particular field in custom infotype which is used for selection, iam not able to get the text , but able to see only the value. (if i press F4)
what could be the reason?

Hello Novice,
Indeed text fields in query have never existed for all fields. In old releases if a
text field did not existed, customers had to create additional fields for that with their own coding.
As of release 46C a general method for identifying texts is available (not only for HR logical databases). It also evaluates the text based on DDIC information. Using this method it is possible to create
exceptions for text retrieval not only at field level (via customizing table TEXC_FLD), but also at data element level (TEXC_DE) and domain level (TEXC_DOM).
So with the new text identification in SAP query customers have the possibility of creating these missing text in an easy way, and also to define exceptions in case the text provided is not the desired one.
You can check the note 491403 'Identifying text in SAP Query' . This note describes where you can find documentation on indentifying text in the system and on how to proceed if text for a
field cannot be identified. If you ran the report RS_TEST_IDENTIFY_TEXT
you could see the result for field the fields. Please, choose "HR Class" upon executing for Text Recognition.
Hoping this information is helpful.
Kind regards,
Graziela

Text (T) symbol for field kostl not found in adhoc query selection

Dear Freinds,
We have developed a custom infotype , as per our requirement one of the field i have added is the Kostl field ( this i have created exactly the same way in infotype 0001).
I have to devlop a report using ADHOC Query based on this custom infotype , so i have developed a adhoc report ( selecting the logical database PNPCE option as it is not allowing for PNP), when i selecting the required feilds from the Custom infotype i can see for the field KOSTL field doesnt have the symbol(T) against the field . However for another ADHOC report when i am selecting from the infotype 0001 i can see the T symbol for the KOSTL . So i went and check in the custom type structur and transparent table as well , the search help etc is exactly same as that of the which are there for this field in the standard infotype 0001(Kostl). Because i have to display the description of the cost centre along with the kostl field , howeve iam able to get for Pernr descirption , for pernr iam able to see the T symbol against the field Pernr.
Please could any one guide why this field doesnt have the symbol T.
regards
divya.

Why don't you the same data element of the KOSTL.
Eventhough you created your own infotype you can still use the stanadard data element.
If you use the standard datatype you will get those feature avalable

Adhoc query selection issue

Hi,
When I use Adhoc query if "switch on object selection", found there's no selection option for IT2011(refer to screenshot), who do you know why, how to correct it?

Here is the standard documentation which explains the settings: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/pt/5e/ec9638b7df646ae10000009b38f8cf/content.htm

Problem in adhoc query

Hi All,
This is regarding a problem in the adhoc query.
For one adhoc query in the selection field only personnel number is there. The adhoc query selects from 0022-infotype.In this case if the reporting period is ALL, all infotype records belonging to 0022 infotype are selected. Even if the end date of the infotype record is less than the initial date of Org.assignment.
For the second adhoc query in the selction field only
personnel area is there. In this case the adhoc query doesnot select infotype record belonging to 0022 infotype
if the end date of the infotype record is less than the Org.assignment.
Can anyone explain me this strange behaviour.
Points will be rewarded.
Regards,
Aravind

Some more additional info about the problem.
Suppose in the selection screen there are 4 fields
Company code, Personnel area, Personnel sub area and Personnel number.
If you fill both Personnel subarea and personnel number,
data record belonging to education infotype but whose end date is greater than the start date of Org.assignment
infotype is not selected.
But if you fill only personnel number the same data record belonging to education infotype is shown with blank values for Org.assignment.
I tried debugging and found out that in the first case
since there is no Org. assignment record for the time period of the education infotype nothing is shown.
In the second case, it is allowed to be shown with blank values for Org.assignment.
Any explanation for this behaviour?

Adhoc Query : Error during selection; check the selection conditions

Hi
We have a report set-up and which we want to run using our adhoc query report tcode S_PH0_48000513
The report, has a few different selection criteria in it to look at all action IT screen data in the system for ee's in specific personnel areas. There is also a criteria to allow us to paste in specific employee numbers we are interested in. The issue I am facing is that over about 3000 ids, the system automatically returns me a message when I click on the Output button to run the report which states:
Error during selection; check the selection conditions
Message no. PAIS206
I am not sure why this is happening. The selection criteria are fine and the other day I ran the report and I experienced no issues. The report ran successfully. Now though, if I try and paste in all the ids I am interested in (about 8000) I get this message straightaway.
Can anything be done to overcome this issue?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Nicola

Hi
The message in full is:
Error during selection; check the selection conditions
Message no. PAIS206
Diagnosis
A runtime error occurred during dynamic selection.
System response
The runtime error will be caught; no short dump will be created. This error should not occur as a rule. However, very large select statements may trigger the runtime error SAPSQL_STMNT_TOO_LARGE or DBIF_RSQL_INVALID_RSQL. There is no way to prevent this happening. In this case, the error can only be caught.
Procedure
Check the selection conditions to see whether the error was caused because the option "Import from text file" included too many objects in the "Multiple selection" dialog. If this is so, you must limit the number of individual values.

Adhoc query custom field selection

Hi Experts,
In adhoc query, we have added a custom field and we find that it is giving correct output. However, we want to make the "selection" box appear and we don't know how to do it. Would you have instructions?
If we add standard/ready-made fields to a field group, both the selection and output boxes are already available but if we copy the standard to make a custom field, only the output box is available.

Hi,
Where do we find this customizing field we need to select? We have tried accessing sq01 and changed a query we have created. We clicked on the basic list button and checked the checkboxes for list field and selection field. When we got to infoset query, the selection checkbox is still missing. Are we checking the right path? The infoset is also missing that checkbox.
We also got a suggestion here that maybe the problem is on the "extras" tab in SQ02 - that our field should have an entry there.

Logical database in adhoc query

Hello All,
Can anyone tell me what is the logical database in adhoc query?

Hi
When you create a query , you have to select an infoset. Infoset can be considered as a source from which data is populated in the Query Fields.
Infosets are created from Transaction SQ02.
There can be four methods through which an Infoset can become a source of data:
1. Table join ( By joining two or more tables from Data dictionary)
example: Joining tables PA0001 and PA0006 on Pernr to get a one resultant dataset
2. Direct read of Basis Table ( Like PA0001 as a source for data in Infoset )
3. Logical Database ( A Pre-written Program by SAP that extract data from clusters, tables taking care of authorizations and validity periods)
Example : Logical database PNP, PNPCE (Concurrent Employement),PCH ( LDB for Personnel Development Data)
Custom Logical DBs can be created in T_Code SE-36.
4. Data Retrieval by a Program ( Custom code written by ABAP developers which will collect and process data) . This program has a corresponding Structure in data dictionary and the fields of this structure will be used in query)
Reward Points, if helpful.

Problem in Adhoc Query's set operation functionality.

Hi Experts,
I am facing problem executing Adhoc Query's set operation functionality.
In Selection Tab, following operations are performed :-
Execute a query and mark it as 'Set A'.(Say Hit list = X)
Execute another query and mark it as 'Set B'.(Say Hit list = Y)
In Set operation Tab, following operations are performed :-:-
Carry out an Operations 'Set A minus Set B'.
which results in Resulting Set = Z.
Transfer the resulting set 'in hit list' and press the copy resulting set button.
In Selection Tab, Hit list is populated with Z.
And when output button is pressed, I get to see 'Y' list and not 'Z' list.
Kindly help.
Thanks.

Problem with a Currency field in Adhoc Query - HR

Hi,
I have an Adhoc query that uses Custom infotype fields (Z infotype and z fields).
The currncy field also has a reference field in the infotype (of type waers).
Wehen we try to get the ouput of the Adhoc Query it gives following error:
The report cannot be generated because the internal description is invalid or incomplete, or because the selection screen is too large.
Regenerate the assigned InfoSet, and read the log. If the InfoSet is OK, make sure that at least one field is given as output.
If you used the 'Refresh' icon to start the query, use the 'Output' menu option to execute the query. This gives you a full screen display of the data.
If an output was generated, the query cannot work with actual data in the construction view. In this case, always use the 'Output' function to execute the query.
I have already tried a number of solutions:
1> Regenerate the infoset...
2> make the field as an additional field and write my own code for it (the error comes before the code as i kept a breakpoint but it stopped before that)
if i add other fields of this infoset instead of this field, then those appear in the output.
Any solutions ??
thanks in advance,
Anuj

Entry date not proper in adhoc query

Hi,
Entry date field in action infotype ( in the adhoc query) always returns 00.00.0000. Whereas the standard reports brings the entry date properly (This is from prelq.hiredate). How we can bring the values into this particular field.The feature 'ENTRY' returns DATYP but data is not maintained in IT41. System should bring the hiring action date (0000 start date) as the entry date. We want to use this entry date field in the adhoc query.
Thanks in advance.
Sreeja

Hi Sreeja
Please read the following paragraph of the consulting note 508026 :
"Exception:
If the query is started with a key date selection, the query calls
function module HR_LEAVING_DATE with the key date and not with the start
and end date of the personnel action in which the key date exists. You
can use modification note 562031 to change this system response."
Please also make sure, that the corrections of note 561514 are contained in your system.
I hope that this information be useful for you.

Can we show comments in adhoc query?

Hello All,
       Can we put comments in Adhoc query?
       I have a comment icon in infotype 9903.
       I need to fetch that particular comments and show in a query output. It is not a field.
       Can we do this? If yes, then please let me know how?
Cheers,
Darshna.

I did it sometime back. A bit complicated process.
Create an infoobject, manually enter the values "keyfig1" and "keyfig2".
Include this infoobject in the filters and restrict it using a "ready for input" variable.
Now create two formula variables.
Write a customer exit such that when you select "keyfig1", first formula variable's value should be set to 1 and other one's to 0.
Then in the query create two calculated key figures, multiply both with the formula variable. Also supress column (all active value == 0).
Then it will show the key figure which you have selected.

Some fields missing in Adhoc Query

In infotype PA0006 (Addresses) we have 4 telephone nr fields in view (PA0006-TELNR, NUM01, NUM02, NUM03).
I have a requirement to make them all available in adhoc query.
In SQ02 for the HR infoset, Infoset P0006 is already available in the database window, but only includes TELNR & NUM01. Num02/3 are not available for me to drag into the field group for the users to be able to use.
The table view clearly has these fields (+05 & 06), so I don't know why they arent available in mt database view in SQ02?
Is there anyway to get them in, so I can make them available to the users, or is there a field property somewhere that excludes these from being available in SQ02?
Thanks for any advice
Graham

You can add whole table PA0006 to your infoset by navigating to "Additional fields" section > right click > create > additional table PA0006.
Then enter:
SELECT SINGLE * FROM PA0006
WHERE PERNR                = P0006-PERNR
   AND SUBTY                = P0006-SUBTY
   AND OBJPS                = P0006-OBJPS
   AND SPRPS                = P0006-SPRPS
   AND ENDDA                = P0006-ENDDA
   AND BEGDA                = P0006-BEGDA
   AND SEQNR                = P0006-SEQNR
Then you will have all fields from IT0006 in your infoset.

Adhoc query-Problem with Personnel no output field

Hi Gurus,
We are trying to run an adhoc query using a customized Info set(PNPCE logical database).
While running the query,we had selected Personnel no(from Payroll status P0003 table) as output field and Company code(from Org assignment P0001) as input field in the selection.
Problem is in the output field we are seeing the Personnel name details in place of Personnel no.Could anyone please suggest what could be the reason behind this and how to fix it.
Your help will be highly appreciated.

Hi Sushil,
The default output for fields with a text and a value (Name = text, PERNR = value) is the text. You can change this by right clicking on the output box in Ad Hoc and selecting "Value". If you want both name and number, select "Value and Text".
You can also change this default to Value from Text if in Ad Hoc, you go to Edit --> Settings. On the last tab, change the radio buttion for output default to Value from Text. This will change it for all fields so you would see the eight digit number rather than the name of the position or org unit. Thus, you may want to keep it at Text and use the right click to change specific fields as needed.
By the way, it is usually best to utilize the personnel number field from IT0000-Actions, although it can be obtained from any infotype if you include that field in the field group when creating your infoset.

I am trying to take out a report on employee's education through Adhoc query. When I am taking the report for all employees it is coming out perfectly. But when I am giving some selection conditions it is showing me blank fields.
Suppose I want see educational details for only one employee having personnel number 1415.
In the selection field of personnel number I am giving 1415 but all the fields related to education is coming blank.

Please check the conditions you are giving in the selection screen is not matching with the data available
For example Start Date

Adhoc Query- problem with the output file format

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem in exporting the output of an adhoc query to Excel format.
The menu option I chose to export the report data into Excel is List>Export>Spreadsheet.
However,I think I've just pressed the wrong option to export my report and now I can't seem to change it from a HTML file option.
Can anybody help me correct this output setting.
Points assured for apt help...

Hi Sushil,
There are two ways to save the output in the excel format.
As you have mentioned, you can use
List -> Export-> Spreadsheet.
Then select table. Now the output will open in a spreadsheet.
The other way is
List -> Export-> Local File
Here you need to select the option spreadsheet. Then mention the path where you want the file to be stored. Also mention the format as .xls
Hope this helps

Brinda
