Dynamic WHERE clause in SELECT statement

Hi,
I need to extract (SELECT) all the products in different salesorganizations. Since a product can be available in more than 1 salesorg I have created several properties in the PRODUCT dimension - 1 for each salesorganization (naming: Sxxxx where xxxx is the salesorganization number).
Since I need to prefix the salesorganization property with an "S" I have created a property on the SALESORG dimension called SALESORG.
Therefore I need to create a dynamic WHERE clause in the SELECT statement. Currently my script is:
*SELECT(%SORG%, "[SALESORG]",SALESORG, [ID]=%SALESORG_SET%)
*SELECT(%PROD%, "[ID]",PRODUCT, [%SORG%]="X")
My first SELECT find the Sxxx (equal to the property I need in the PRODUCT dimension). My second SELECT uses the variable in the first SELCT statement to use the correct property for the WHERE clause.
Unfortunately the code is not validated - any suggestions?
/Lars

Hi Lars,
If you run it from a DM package without validating it, does it still work? I would bet it does.
If this is the case I would open a message with SAP (it would be an enhancement request). Until they fix the validation code, you would just have to live with the script not validating.
Cheers,
Ethan

is it possible?
for examlpe..
IF EXIDV2 IS NOT INITIAL.

            INTO TABLE IG_SHIPLOAD
            WHERE EXIDV2 = EXIDV2 AND
                         VHILM = PC1 OR PC2 OR PC3.
ENDIF.
i want that VHILM should be one of those three.
how can i do this?
thanks..

Hi ,
its possible,
Select * from ysdt_shipload int table ig_shipload where exidv2 = exidv2
                                                                        AND vhilm = pc1

Dynamic where clause in select query

Hi
I'm trying for a dynamic query and in the dynamic where clause i'm checking a field for constant.....for instance if i wanna to use WERKS EQ '0478' how to declare it in dync where clause. i tried for the following:
SELECT (TAB_FIELD) INTO TABLE DITAB UP TO 10 ROWS FROM (TAB_NAME) WHERE (CONDI).
heree CONDI = 'werks eq 0287' . in this case the query fails as the werks shud be equal to '0287' and not just 0287. How to handle this? i tried for the following
CONDI = 'werks eq " '0287' " ' but no luck as it is not a valid stmt as i knew.

hi prabhu,
this is how u select dynamically...
DATA: COND(72) TYPE C,
ITAB LIKE TABLE OF COND.
PARAMETERS: CITY1(10) TYPE C, CITY2(10) TYPE C.
DATA WA TYPE SPFLI-CITYFROM.
CONCATENATE 'CITYFROM = ''' CITY1 '''' INTO COND.
APPEND COND TO ITAB.
CONCATENATE 'OR CITYFROM = ''' CITY2 '''' INTO COND.
APPEND COND TO ITAB.
CONCATENATE 'OR CITYFROM = ''' 'BERLIN' '''' INTO COND.
APPEND COND TO ITAB.
LOOP AT ITAB INTO COND.
WRITE COND.
ENDLOOP.
SKIP.
SELECT CITYFROM
INTO WA

How to create VO with multiple dynamic where clauses on select with UNION?

I am trying to implement the View Object for the UNION query that looks like this:
     select a,b,c...
          from t1,t2,...
          where dynamic_where_clause1
     union all
     select a,b,c,...
          from t11,t12, ...
          where dynamic_where_clause2
There are up to 60 input parameters that are used to generate dynamic where clauses. They are actually created by calling PL SQL function.
So far, I was not able to assign both where clauses to the view object. Is there a workable solution for this problem, besides resorting to programmatic View Object?
I understand that recommended way with UNIONs is to wrap both queries into a parent select:
select * from (
     select a,b,c...
          from t1,t2,...
          where ... -- table relationship joints
     union all
     select a,b,c,...
          from t11,t12, ...
          where ... -- table relationship joints
) QRSLT
     where dynamic_where_clause
Unfortunately this approach doesn't work here, since individual selects are producing unmanageable amount of data and resulting query takes forever to complete.

I afraid I would not have any real benefits from using VO if I replace the entire query with every request. Actually, the performance may suffer.
I solved the problem by creating a POJO Data Control and invoking the custom select query from java. Not sure if it is the best approach to the problem, but implementation time is limited and it works.
Actually, this is not the first time I see the need to implement VO with complicated SQL like select with unions and dynamic pieces. It would be nice to find a solution and not resort to workarounds.

Use of LIKE in where clause of select statement for multiple records

Hi Experts,
I have a account number field which is uploaded from a file. Now this account numbers uploaded does not match fully with sap table account numbers but it contains all of the numbers provided in the file mostly in the upright positions.
For example in file we have account number as 2ARS1 while in sap table the value is 002ARS1.
And i want to fetch data from sap table based on account number uploaded. So, i am trying to use LIKE with for all entries but its not working as mentioned below but LIKE is not working with FOR ALL ENTRIES.
data : begin of t_dda occurs 0,
        dda(19) type c,
       end of t_dda.
data : begin of t_bukrs occurs 0,
        bukrs type t012k-bukrs,
       end of t_bukrs.
data : dda type t012k-bankn,
       w_dda type t012k-bankn.
CONCATENATE '%'
                         '2ARS1'
                 INTO W_DDA.
MOVE W_DDA TO T_DDA-DDA.
APPEND T_DDA.
CLEAR T_DDA.
free t_bukrs.
SELECT BUKRS
FROM T012K
into TABLE t_bukrs
    for all entries in t_dda
WHERE BANKN like t_dda-dda.
Can anybody suggest what should i use to get the data for multiple account numbers using one select statement only instead on using SELECT UP TO 1 ROWS in LOOP....ENDLOOP ?
Thanks in advance,
Akash

Hi,
yes, For All entries won't work for LIKE with '% '.
I think the other alternative is go for Native SQL by writing sub-query
sample code is here:
data: begin of i_mara occurs 0,
          matnr like mara-matnr,
          matkl like mara-matkl,
       end of i_mara.
exec sql.
select matnr, matkl from mara where matnr in (select matnr from marc) and matnr like '%ma' into :i_mara
endexec.
loop at i_mara.
write:/ i_mara-matnr, i_mara-matkl.
endloop.
hope u got it.
regards

Dynamic Where Clause in select using member attribute of class

Hello,
can anybody provide me some tips how to solve this problem:
          SELECT (lv_sql_select) INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE lt_cntrl2
                     FROM (lv_db_name)
                 FOR ALL ENTRIES IN mt_guids
             WHERE (lv_sql_where).
works perfectly fine if I use a local table variable or a member of my class. But if I build my where clause using a member attribute of my class which comes from the interace- exactly the same type and data as before I get a dump.
SELECT (lv_sql_select) INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE lt_xyz
                     FROM (lv_db_name)
                 FOR ALL ENTRIES IN if_abc~mt_guids
my where clause "guid = if_abc~mt_guids-guid.

Hi Marco Freischlag,
As per my understanding , if we give for all entries we want to use internal table , For where conditions you want to pass variable , not internal table one filed,because it will not have header line...
so code like this...
SELECT (lv_sql_select) INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE lt_xyz
                     FROM (lv_db_name)
                 FOR ALL ENTRIES IN if_abc~mt_guids
          where guid = if_abc~mt_guids-guid. " Here pass some variable or work area in it and test.
Thanks,

select * from cust_mstr where (varname).
Can I do it something like this in IF statement.
if (varname).
endif.
The varname will have different conditions.
Your help will be greately appreciated.

Sume

Hello Sume,
I would try to use an approach using ranges:
DATA:
gv_material TYPE matnr.
gv_material = '292-392-392-202'.
IF gv_material = '292-392-392-202'.
WRITE: / `Static check:`, gv_material, `matches!`.
ELSE.
WRITE: / `Static check:`, gv_material, `doesn't match!`.
ENDIF.
PERFORM dynamic_check
            USING
               gv_material
               'I'
               'EQ'
               '292-392-392-202'
               space.
PERFORM dynamic_check
            USING
               gv_material
               'I'
               'CP'
               '*292*'
               space.
PERFORM dynamic_check
            USING
               gv_material
               'I'
               'CP'
               '*ABC*'
               space.
*&      Form dynamic_check
FORM dynamic_check USING pv_value    TYPE clike
                         pv_sign     TYPE ddsign
                         pv_option   TYPE ddoption
                         pv_low      TYPE string
                         pv_high     TYPE string.
DATA lr_range TYPE RANGE OF string.
DATA ls_range LIKE LINE OF lr_range.
ls_range-sign   = pv_sign.
ls_range-option = pv_option.
ls_range-low    = pv_low.
ls_range-high   = pv_high.
APPEND ls_range TO lr_range.
IF pv_value IN lr_range.
    WRITE: / `Dynamic check matches: `, pv_value, ls_range-sign, ls_range-option, ls_range-low, ls_range-high.
ELSE.
    WRITE: / `Dynamic check doesn't match:`, pv_value, ls_range-sign, ls_range-option, ls_range-low, ls_range-high.
ENDIF.
ENDFORM.                    "dynamic_check
For values of SIGN and OPTION check the values of the domains used in the data elements of the parameters of form dynamic_check.
Output is like:
Static check:                292-392-392-202    matches!
Dynamic check matches:       292-392-392-202    I EQ 292-392-392-202
Dynamic check matches:       292-392-392-202    I CP *292*
Dynamic check doesn't match: 292-392-392-202    I CP *ABC*

hi,
Please send the code regarding how to dynamically assign the where clause to select query.
thanks in advance

My requirement is have a web page where users can search for customers by filling in a form which has the following feilds: - User can fill in the form with all the feilds or not. I want a dynamic where clause.. how can i get this work for me?

And having an open ended search function on a web page is also not a great idea.
If you are using Apex, the for performance (and even query flexibility) it will be better creating a separate reporting region for each unique query. A boolean rendering condition checks the existing bind variables in order to determine if that specific reporting region should be executed.
This results in a reporting region having a proper and dedicated SQL query (no hacking of the where clause) and that region only being rendered for the proper combination of supplied filter criteria.
A slightly more complex, but more flexible approach, is using a generic reporting region that calls a PL/SQL function that creates returns the SQL query for execution and rendering. The approach to this is very similar to constructing a SQL ref cursor (dynamically) for a client. The only difference is that instead of creating the actual ref cursor, the code simply needs to return the SQL source code statement - with bind variables. The Apex run-time does the rest (does the binds and execution and rendering).
If you are not using Apex - you should still consider these approaches. And not hacking a single SQL to cater for all different types of filter conditions.

Dynamic Where clause in 4.6C [Literals allowed but not variables]

Good afternoon-
We have a dynamic select statement that works perfectly in 4.7 ext 2, but is causing a short dump in 4.6C. The error in the short dump says:
The current ABAP/4 program attempted to execute an ABAP/4 Open SQL
statement containing a WHERE condition of the form WHERE (itab) or
WHERE ... AND (itab). The part of the WHERE condition specified at
runtime in the internal table itab contains an invalid
value "HDR_COMP_CODE". Literals are allowed as values, but not variables.
HDR_COMP_CODE is in incoming parameter to the function module that is calling this code. It is of type BKPF-BUKRS.
Here is the code:
DATA: BEGIN OF L_WHERE_CLAUSE OCCURS 0,
        TEXT_LINE(60) TYPE C,
END OF L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
CLEAR L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
IF NOT HDR_COMP_CODE IS INITIAL.
    SELECT SINGLE KTOPL
    INTO LV_KTOPL
    FROM T001
    WHERE BUKRS = HDR_COMP_CODE.
    L_WHERE_CLAUSE = 'B~BUKRS = HDR_COMP_CODE'.
    APPEND L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
    CLEAR L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
    L_WHERE_CLAUSE = 'AND'.
    APPEND L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
    CLEAR L_WHERE_CLAUSE.

    L_WHERE_CLAUSE = 'AND'.
    APPEND L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
    CLEAR L_WHERE_CLAUSE.

     ON TSAKNR = BSAKNR
WHERE (L_WHERE_CLAUSE).
    APPEND LT_GL_ACCOUNT_DATA.
    CLEAR LT_GL_ACCOUNT_DATA.
ENDSELECT.
This EXACT query works in 4.7, has anyone run into this, or can they tell me why I might be getting the error?
Thanks,

Well, in this case, unless I'm missing something, you do not requre a dynamic WHERE clause. You can use RANGES instead.
report zrich_0001.
*DATA: BEGIN OF L_WHERE_CLAUSE OCCURS 0,
*TEXT_LINE(60) TYPE C,
*END OF L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
ranges: r_bukrs for t001-bukrs.
ranges: r_ktopl for t001-ktopl.
*CLEAR L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
IF NOT HDR_COMP_CODE IS INITIAL.
clear r_bukrs. refresh r_bukrs.
r_bukrs-sign = 'I'.
r_bukrs-option = 'EQ'.
r_bukrs-low = hdr_comp_code.
append r_bukrs.
SELECT SINGLE KTOPL
INTO LV_KTOPL
FROM T001
WHERE BUKRS = HDR_COMP_CODE.
clear r_ktopl. refresh r_ktopl.
r_ktopl-sign = 'I'.
r_ktopl-option = 'EQ'.
r_ktopl-low = lv_ktopl.
append r_ktopl.
*L_WHERE_CLAUSE = 'B~BUKRS = HDR_COMP_CODE'.
*APPEND L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
*CLEAR L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
*L_WHERE_CLAUSE = 'AND'.
*APPEND L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
*CLEAR L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
*L_WHERE_CLAUSE = 'T~KTOPL = LV_KTOPL'.
*APPEND L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
*CLEAR L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
*L_WHERE_CLAUSE = 'AND'.
*APPEND L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
*CLEAR L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
ENDIF.
*L_WHERE_CLAUSE = 'T~SPRAS = SY-LANGU'.
*APPEND L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
*CLEAR L_WHERE_CLAUSE.
SELECT B~SAKNR T~TXT50
INTO (LT_GL_ACCOUNT_DATA-GL_ACCOUNT, LT_GL_ACCOUNT_DATA-DESCRIPTION)
FROM SKB1 AS B INNER JOIN SKAT AS T
ON T~SAKNR = B~SAKNR
WHERE b~bukrs in r_bukrs
and t~ktopl in r_ktopl.
APPEND LT_GL_ACCOUNT_DATA.
CLEAR LT_GL_ACCOUNT_DATA.
ENDSELECT.

How to add a dynamic where clause for a sql based VO with group by query?

Hi,
Here is my case, I have a sql query based VO with the query like "select status, count(*) StatusCount from my_table group by status". Now I used the following java code trying to dynamically add the where clause to my VO to filter the rows based the type attribute in my DB table.
vo.setWhereClause("type='MyType1' ");
vo.executeQuery();
Then I got the sql syntax error. Looks like the ADF has added the where clause to the end of my sql so my sql becomes "select status, count(*) StatusCount from my_table group by status where type='MyType1' ". But what I expected was the correct syntax "select status, count(*) StatusCount from my_table where type='MyType1' group by status".
Does anyone know if this is an ADF bug? Or is there any other way to achieve my goal?
Thanks,
Chunyang

Hi,
When you use setWhereClause on the VO, it is applied on top of the VO query. I.e, assume your VO has the following query.
select empno, ename from empNow, if you apply the where clause programatically, only the two attributes that you are using in the select statement could be used. I.e
select * from (select empno, ename from emp) where ename='KING' - VALID
select * from (select empno, ename from emp) where deptno=10 - INVALID (because the inner query - the one you've defined as query for your vo does not have deptno attribute selected)If you would need to set a dynamic where clause, you need to make them available in your select statement / use bind variables.

Dynamic where clause in "delete itab where..." variant

Hi, I need to be able to delete the contents of an internal table based on a dynamic where clause. I don't want to loop through the entire table to test each record. Since the delete statement doesn't seem to allow a dynamic "where" clause I am trying to use a macro. I can't get the macro to work either.
I get the following error in my syntax check:
Statement concluding with "...FINAL_STATEMENT" ended unexpectedly.
Is there any way to get this macro to pass the syntax text or accomplish the dynamic delete?
MACRO TO FILTER OUT UNWANTED RECORDS (RETAIL OUTLETS)
DEFINE DELOUT.
    DELETE MY_ITAB WHERE &1.
END-OF-DEFINITION.
Example FINAL_STATEMENT = ( ZRRDIVIS = '4' )
USING MACRO DOES NOT PASS SYNTAX CHECK
DELOUT FINAL_STATEMENT.

Well, if you really need this kind of functionality, here is a code sample that I just threw together that would work. A lot of code for one little delete statement though.
