Help needed in table maintenance

Dear all
I have to add a few fields in existing Z-table. When I try to add a field to the table, I get an error that
Table <table name> is too long (>1962). Can any one guide what's the meaning of this and how to correct the same.
Thanks in advance. Points for sure.
Regards
Dinesh

Hi,
The total field lengths of the data elements used in your table is more than 1962, which is the max permissible limit.
Reduce the length of some of the text fields which you feel is extra and then embed your new field,
This should solve your problem.
Hope this helps!!!

One step, two step in Table Maintenance Generator
Single step: Only overview screen is created i.e. the Table Maintenance Program will have only one screen where you can add, delete or edit records.
Two step: Two screens namely the overview screen and Single screen are created. The user can see the key fields in the first screen and can further go on to edit further details.
Difference Between Select Single and Select UpTo One Rows
According to SAP Performance course the SELECT UP TO 1 ROWS is faster than SELECT SINGLE because you are not using all the primary key fields.
select single is a construct designed to read database records with primary key. In the absence of the primary key, it might end up doing a sequential search, whereas the select up to 1 rows may assume that there is no primary key supplied and will try to find most suitable index.
The best way to find out is through sql trace or runtime analysis.
Use "select up to 1 rows" only if you are sure that all the records returned will have the same value for the field(s) you are interested in. If not, you will be reading only the first record which matches the criteria, but may be the second or the third record has the value you are looking for.
The System test result showed that the variant Single * takes less time than Up to 1 rows as there is an additional level for COUNT STOP KEY for SELECT ENDSELECT UP TO 1 ROWS.
The 'SELECT SINGLE' statement selects the first row in the database that it finds that fulfils the 'WHERE' clause If this results in multiple records then only the first one will be returned and therefore may not be unique.
Mainly: to read data from
The 'SELECT .... UP TO 1 ROWS' statement is subtly different. The database selects all of the relevant records that are defined by the WHERE clause, applies any aggregate, ordering or grouping functions to them and then returns the first record of the result set.
Mainly: to check if entries exist.

Help needed with tables in iWork pages

Hi,
When I have a table in microsoft word I can fill it with all the content I like and it will run on page to page.
In Pages however, a row (along with the rest of the table below) will split off and start on the next page if threre is too much content.
If the contents runs over a whole page the text will run on into nowhere, so off the page and the subsquent empty cells will start on the next page.
How do I stop this from happening?
Thanks

That is the way tables in Pages works. It doesn't work as in Word. Do you really need using tables? I myself find it a bad habit when using a table for every thing.

You would have to use the outbound plugs to transfer data from your component to the other component. Here you have a parameter IV_DATA_COLLECTION. Fill the entries you want to fill here.
Check the Sold to Party pop up while creating Quotation for Sales cycle when you log in with SALESPRO.

For Header details I have used advanced table under that I have used detail region and there I have created advanced table for line details.
I have also created view link to link the header details view object and line details view object.

Help needed regarding table layouting Issue in CS4

I was trying to layout a table using an Indesign custom script in CS4. The input to the Indesign is a XML file
Please find below the snapshot of the XML file with the table definition:
<Table xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/AdobeInDesign/5.0/" aid5:tablestyle="_XXY" aid:tcols="6" aid:trows="17"><Cell xmlns:aid5="http://ns.adobe.com/AdobeInDesign/5.0/" aid5:cellstyle="_XYY" aid:ccols="1" aid:crows="1" aid5:tablestyle="_XXY">
Now when the table is layouting it is not taking into account the style of the table nor that of the cell.
Can you please suggest what is the best way of defining the table styles and the cell styles so that the table can be laid out in Indesign with the proper table styles and the cell styles.

Please post in the ID forum.

Help needed in Table and field

Hi all,
can any one tell me the table and field to get basic unit of measure and unit of issue.
I guess both are different.
Thanks

For base unit of measure, uom, T006 is the main table.But whereever you have a quantity yu will find UOM in that table. The field is MEINS.
when you say unit of issue, you mean actual unit of measure right?
In that case it again depends on what you are looking at. Example
in table LIPS there is base UOM and Actual UOM.
base is always "MEINS" and actual is "LFIMG" in this case.
So get the table in your functional area and check for the actual uom field in SE11.

Help needed on table type datatype.

Hi,
I have written the following code,
declare
type t is table of emp.empno%type index by binary_integer;
y t;
begin
select empno bulk collect into y
from emp where 1 = 1;
dbms_output.put_line(y.count);
exception
when others then
dbms_output.put_line(SQLERRM);
end;
now i want to print the values from the table type variable y. how can i do that.
Regards
Jhansi

You reference record elements using dot notation: record.field
You reference collection elements using parenthesis notation: collection(element)
So you example might work like this:
declare
type t is table of emp.empno%type index by binary_integer;
y t;
begin
select empno bulk collect into y
from emp where 1 = 1;
dbms_output.put_line('count='||y.count);
dbms_output.put_line('Empno in element 1 is '||y(1));
end; a couple of additional comments
When you post code, you can enclose it with the markup tag { code } but without the space between the curly brackets and the key word code
These tags will format everything between them usign a fixed pitch font making it more readable.
try not to use an EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS
usually, you don't want to trap and handle ANY exception.
If there is a specific exception that you want to trap and handle in your code put that handler in your code, otherwise let and exception propagate up to your SQLPlus or SQLDeveloper calling program.

Help needed with table of contents construction for ebook

I am creating an ebook manuscript in Pages. I want to link the headings in the table of contents - instead of the page numbers - to the appropriate sections of my document. Is there any way to do that?
Also, how can I edit the table of contents? I don't mean change the style. I've already done that. I just want to add extra spacing and insert a page break. Every time I try to insert my cursor to make these changes, the headings become highlighted in blue. How can I avoid that?

Is your goal to have links on the chapter titles as an ease of use for the consumer of your ebook, or as a convenience to you that enables you to jump around the book with a single click?
The first part of the conjunction does not appear currently possible in Pages. The second part is possible.
Select a chapter title. Open the link inspector and choose the Bookmark tab. Add your chapter titles in order as bookmarks. No hyperlinks. Once done, you can use your mouse to select the bookmarked chapter title from the link inspector bookmark list that you want to instantly jump to in your Pages document. Simpler than using the TOC to do this.

Table maintenance

Hi,
There are two ways to maintain Data records in a table :
1. By program : using insert/delete/modify or update statement.
2. By table maintenance
What is the advantage or disadvantage of one process to another.
Thanks & Regards,
Abhishek Sarkar

Hi,
Table maintenance is used to maintain data in the tables created (ZTABLE)
Generally for inserting new records into custom table thru transaction SM30, we need to enter all the values manually and save the record.
When certain data for the key fields needs to be populated automatically while creating entries, the steps involved are:
Maintaining the subroutine in view V_TVIMF for a particular custom table.
Logic for extracting relevant data for the fields entered, when user press enter button.
Check this blog for more information on extracting data in table maintenance.
/people/sudheer.cheedella/blog/2006/02/20/extracting-data-in-table-maintenance
With the help of the table maintenance generator, you are able to maintain the ENTRIES of the table in SM30 transaction.
It can be set in transaction SE11 - Tools - Table maintenance generator.
Table maintenance Generator is used to manually input values using transaction sm30
follow below steps
1) go to se11 check table maintenance check box under attributes tab
2) utilities-table maintenance Generator-> create function group and assign it under
function group input box. Also assign authorization group default &NC& .
3) Select standard recording routine radio in table table maintenance generator to move table
contents to quality and production by assigning it to request.
4) Select maintenance type as single step.
5) maintenance screen as system generated numbers this dialog box appears when you click on create button
6) save and activate table
One step, two step in Table Maintenance Generator
Single step: Only overview screen is created i.e. the Table Maintenance Program will have only one screen where you can add, delete or edit records.
Two step: Two screens namely the overview screen and Single screen are created. The user can see the key fields in the first screen and can further go on to edit further details.
SM30 is used for table maintenance(addition or deletion of records),
For all the tables in SE11 for which Table maintenance is selected , they can be maintained in SM30
Sm30 is used to maintain the table ,i.e. to delete ,insert or modify the field values and all..
It creates the maintenance screen for u for the particular table as the maintenance is not allowed for the table..
In the SE11 delivery and maintenance tab, keep the maintenance allowed..
Then come to the SM30 and then enter the table name and press maintain..,
Give the authorization group if necessary and give the function group and then select maintenance type as one step and give the screen numbers as system specified..
Then create,,,
Then u will able to see the maintenance view for the table in which u can able to insert and delete the table values...
We use SM30 transaction for entering values into any DB table.
First we create a table in SE11 and create the table maintenance generator for that Table using (utilities-> table maintenance generator) and create it.
Then it will create a View.
After that from SM30, enter the table name and Maintain, create new entries, change the existing entries for that table.

Need help !- Table maintenance generator

Dear Experts,
I have created a custom table and all created a table maintenance generator for that. How do I make sure I am able to maintain the table using SM30 in the other clients of the system?
I created the table in client 125 and now need to insert records in110 for testing. But when I click on maintain button in SM30, I get a pop up which says "Client 110 has status 'not modifiable'"
Weird thing is all the other custom tables can be modifed and I also tried comparing the properties of my table with those and they are all exactly the same. Kindly help!!
Regards
Veena

Hi Veena,
While generating the table maintenance generator, Please check what radio button you choose for recording routine. I think you have selected 'Standard recording routine'. Change it to 'no, or user, recording routine' . Then this error will go away.
Hope this helps
Thanks
Romit
