I am getting dump error while running one report in one select query

Question

Hi,
While running a report program, I am getting a dump error in one select query. So could you please correct the select query so that I can't face the dump error.
SELECT vbeln parvw kunnr INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE l_t_vbpa
  FROM vbpa
  FOR ALL ENTRIES IN l_t_backorder_item
  WHERE vbeln = l_t_backorder_item-vbeln AND
  ( ( parvw = c_we AND kunnr IN rng_shipto ) OR  ( parvw = c_ag AND
  kunnr IN rng_soldto ) ) .

Hi Bansidhar,
It would be helpful if you could tell what type of dump it is.
If it is a timeout you should check whether l_t_backorder_item is empty - in this case ALL document numbers are selected. f you get the timeout with a populated table consider converting the l_t_backorder_item table into one ore more ranges tables - the select with ranges tables is way quicker than 'for all entries'. But take care the ranges table has not to many entries - the SAP SQL converter puts this into one huge SQL statement and this might become too big to be handled by the database (depends on the actual underlying database).
I would also consider splitting the SELECT into two (2nd one with 'appending into table') to make the code easier to understand It also helps the database system determining a strategy for the select.
