Query using logical database
Hi,
There is one query which is using logical database PNM. I have got one requirement to add one field in selection screen to filter the output. The field which is required to be displayed in selection screen to filter the data is from table mkal which is not present in logical database. Hence my question is, is it possible to add field from table which is not present in logical database? IF yes, please specify the procedure.
Hi Jogeswara,
Thanks for your inputs.
But my question is, how can I filter the data which is being fetched by standard logical database. I cannot go inside the std. LDB and change internal tables of it. I tried coding in extras, but I think it works only if we want to add additional fields in output.
At present, we are considering the option of creating a z LDB where we copy. std. LDB and also add the reqd. table which is not present in LDB.
Is there any other option?
Please provide your valuable inputs.
Regards,
Imran Kundan.

ABAP query using logical database KDF is not populating custom fields
Hi Experts ,
I created two following queries
1. VENDORCATKDF – uses KDF logical database
2. VENDORCATLFA1 – uses table = LFA1
I’m pulling the same information in both queries:
· Vendor Number
· Country
· Vendor Name
· Vendor Category (custom fields added to LFA1)
The results for the query that uses the logical database KDF is incorrect. It doesn’t pull in the flag on the custom field LFA1-ZMRO. Even though the logical database KDF is made up of the table LFA1 and has these fields.
Is there something that can be done – so that all of these “custom” category fields under LFA1 (such as LFA1-ZZMRO) – get pulled into queries – when we use the logical database KDF ?Hi,
I have got the error removed by ensuring that fields from one table are a part of one line ( taking help of ruler) only. But the underlying problem remains, the output is not ALV but List output.
I do not think having additional fields in the query is reason for this.
Is it bcoz iI am adjusting the output length of columns to ensure no hierarchical error ?
Can we not have a query using LDB which is shown as SAP List?

SAP / ABAP Query - using logical database
Hi ,
We have a mandate to implement SAP Query using only Logical Databases (LDB ) .
We understand that there are several issues using this approach .
1 ) Paralled tables in MM need to be displayed on separate lines .
2 ) Statistics based on fields from 2 different tables cannot be produced eg: EKPO ( PO Number ) and EKKN . (Cost Center )
Please share your experiences .
Thank you in advance .
Kishore
KishoreAdeel,
I do appreciate your experience and respect you for knowledge on SAP Query.
Joining tables seem simple to IT experts but not so for end users. SAP Query is an end-user tool and users seem to need a simple user-friend, drag-and-drop solution to extract information using SAP Query based on a pre-defined infoset. Various SAP conferences have been advocating the use of SAP delivered Logical Databses to create infosets in order to harness the various advantages of LDBs.
In MM there are several LDBs (e.g. ELM, EBM etc) to create queries on EKPO and EKKN. The problem arises when you use the same LDB to extract information from more than the above two tables e.g. EKPO, EKET, EKKN and EKBE. SAP expects you to display fields on multiple lines and also does not allow producing statistics based on fields from two parallel tables say EKKN and EKBE. Moreover, multi-line reports cannot be produced in the ALV/SLV format.
We are also looking for best practise solutions in providing SAP Query to MM or FI users based on SAP delivered Logical Databases.

How to use Logical database in function module?
I will create a function module in HR.
but how to use Logical database in function module ? Logical database PNP always show screen.in function (RFC) code , it is a matter.You cannot attach the LDB to the main program of the function group.
- So you may [SUBMIT|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/advancedsearch?cat=sdn_all&query=submit&adv=false&sortby=cm_rnd_rankvalue] a report which use the LDB and get back the data (export/import), by default in the syntax of SUBMIT the selection-screen will not be displayed
- Use [LDB_PROCESS|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/advancedsearch?query=ldb_process&cat=sdn_all], fill a structured table for selection, and get data back in another table
- Use [HR function modules to read Infotypes|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/advancedsearch?cat=sdn_all&query=hrfunctionmodulestoread+Infotypes&adv=false&sortby=cm_rnd_rankvalue].

How to inactivate the 'Complex Search' button when using Logical Database
Hy experts
I m using Logical Database for a select and you know that for an GET event by default in selection screen it appears some selection fields for every GET event..I manage to hide the ones that don't interest me but I have a little problem: I have a button that's called 'Complex Search' and I don't know how to get rid of this button..
Here is some code:
AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.
LOOP AT SCREEN.
IF screen-name CP '%BT02010_BLOCK_1000'.
screen-input = '0'.
screen-active = 0.
screen-invisible = 1.
MODIFY SCREEN.
ENDIF.
IF screen-name CP 'QL_REFIL'.
screen-input = '0'.
screen-active = 0.
screen-invisible = 1.
MODIFY SCREEN.
ENDIF.
I do this for every screen-name in the program that doesn t interes me..but it seams that even if I comment all the button with 'Complex Search' remains..I mention that is a disperate solution to inactivate every screen element but I could not do other way..My bigest pb is the 'Complex Seach' button..can anyone help me?? pls.. <REMOVED BY MODERATOR> ..thx..
Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Feb 12, 2008 12:45 PMThank you Thomas,
I need some more from you...
If I have 8 tables for 8 columns, then how do i proceed?
Also could u tell me some query optimization techniques while working with intermedia text.
Thanks you once again,
waiting...
Khaleel Hi Khaleel,
I think this depends on your data model (relationship between the tables) and how you like to search later.
The optimization begins also with the create index statement (memory clause and storage clause).
If you like me to help I need more information about your hardware, os, datamodel and what kind of searches you will have later.
Cheers,

How to retrieve data using logical database and custom select options
Hi all,
I have a selection screen which is displayed by logical database PSJ and I have two select options of my own. I need to retrieve data based on both selection screen of logical database and my own select options. How can I do it?
Thanks in advance.Hai Gupta
Check the following Document & Links
1. A logical database is in fact
a program only.
2. This LDB provides two main things :
a) a pre-defined selection screen
which handles all user inputs and validations
b) pre defined set of data
based upon the user selection.
3. So we dont have to worry about from
which tables to fetch data.
4. Moreover, this LDB Program,
handles all user-authorisations
and is efficient in all respects.
5. tcode is SLDB
good info about Logical Database. you can check the link.

Re: How to Create and Use ldb in reports?
Re: Logical databases
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/9f/db9bed35c111d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
Functions for displaying and changing logical databases:
Call Transaction SE36 or
Choose ABAP Workbench -> Development -> Programming environ. -> Logical databases
Interaction between database program and report:
During program processing, subroutines are performed in the database program and events are executed in the report.
To read data from a database tables we use logical database.
A logical database provides read-only access to a group of related tables to an ABAP/4 program.
advantages:-
The programmer need not worry about the primary key for each table.Because Logical database knows how the different tables relate to each other,and can issue the SELECT command with proper where clause to retrieve the data.
i)An easy-to-use standard user interface.
ii)check functions which check that user input is complete,correct,and plausible.
iii)meaningful data selection.
iv)central authorization checks for database accesses.
v)good read access performance while retaining the hierarchical data view determined by the application logic.
disadvantages:-
i)If you donot specify a logical database in the program attributes,the GET events never occur.
ii)There is no ENDGET command,so the code block associated with an event ends with the next event
statement (such as another GET or an END-OF-SELECTION).
1. transaction code SLDB.
2.enter name z<ldb-name>
3.create
4.short text
5.create
6. name of root node (here Ekko)
7. enter short text (f6)
8.node type -> data base table.
9.create
10 change logical DB
riht click on ekko and insert node
here node name ekpo
11.create
12. click on selections
13. press no Should the changed structure of Z<ldb name> be saved first.
14.select tables which you want to join.
15.transfer
16 now you have to o to coding part.
17. save
activate.
19.click to src code
double click on first include and activate

Query regarding Logical Database reports
Hi,
I have started doing pgm on Logical Database report using VBAK,VBAP and MARA. I took VBAK as the root node and VBAP& MARA as subnodes. The actual requirement is:- I am trying to place these tables in Application server for perfromance issue using Logical database. Based on sales, the items need to be be displayed. And based on Items, the material data should be displayed.So root node here is VBAK.
I have created these 3 nodes in SE36 tx.code. when I go back to se36 main screen and under "subobjects" ,I've selected "selections". I got a dialog box saying that "Nodes for which free selections are to be made". I have clicked on the radio buttons.And then clicked on "transfer" . I am getting a runtime error . Please let me know the solution.
Please do send me the actual process to go on with logical database reporting.hi,

Can I use logical databases in a WebDynpro ABAP program?
can I use logical databases in a WebDynpro ABAP program?
I need to build a WDA screen that is similar to the SAPDBPNP selection screen (user can find the personnel number based on several criteria, such as last_name/first_name of the employee). So it seems that the existing logical databases have already many nice features already built (like the selection screens, the logic behind the screens etc). So I was wondering if/how I can use them in my WDA application.Hello, Tiberiu.
You cannot use LDB directly within your WDA programa. BUT, you can fetch results from this LDB by using FM LDB_PROCESS. This function module can be called anytime from any kind of ABAP program. But you will still have to create the screen, as it only processes data, not screens.

Custom selection field using Logical database
Hi All,
I have to create a program that would print out employee contracts from infotype 16.
I am using logical database PNPCE.
Is there a way to add "contract type" as a selection parameter in the screen that is generated by PNPCE?
Thanks,
~MarkHi,
Create CTTYP(Contract type) as input parameter in the program.
Then after GET PERNR.
write check stmt for that field like below.
PARAMETERS: p_cttyp type p0016-cttyp.
GET PERNR.
CHECK p0016-cttyp EQ p_cttyp.
Rewards points if helpful.

Splitting "pernrs" in program that is using logical database
Hello All,
I have a HR program that uploads data from file into infotype 377. Everything works fine except if the file has like 20000 records the program is taking for ever to run! I am using logical database (GET PERNR) in the program. I populate my pnpindex with all pernrs from file for processing. Is there any way I can aplit pernrs (like 5000 each processing) so that I can speed up the process i.e, I want to process 5000 pernrs at a time. I tried to find solution here but no luck and I am out of ideas. If you happen to have any ideas on this, please let me know.
