Regarding Select using FOR ALL ENTRIES (FAEI)

Hi all,
Please help me with Select using FOR ALL ENTRIES (FAEI)
Thanks in advns,
Das.

Hi,
This version of the SELECT statement was the only way to join tables until SAP release 3.0E. It is recommended that the SQL JOIN be used. However, this is an alternate method of joining tables that may be used in some circumstances. Remember, SQL JOIN doesnt utilize the SAP internal database buffer.
Example:
    SELECT EKGRP FROM T024
           INTO TABLE T_024.
    SELECT MATNR WERKS EKGRP FROM MARC
           INTO TABLE T_MARC
           FOR ALL ENTRIES IN T_024
           WHERE EKGRP = T_024-EKGRP.
Prerequisites:
The driver table cannot be empty. This would cause one full table scan.
In general, keep the driver table as small and unique (in regards to the fields that would be needed for referencing in the FAEI) as possible. If duplicate entries are not deleted, identical data is read unnecessarily from the database.
If FAEI is used, the selected field list must be a superset of all the key fields of the database tables used in SQL. This is absolutely required to avoid data loss since the DB interface in R/3 returns unique sets of the result set to the application program. Failing to ensure this may cause problems when you want to get all records from a database table that match a certain condition.
Avoid using FAEI on a small DB table (like configuration tables). This could potentially cause full table scans for each FAEI packet. Even if it does index range scan, it is better to get data from the small DB tables by individual SELECT without the use of FAE.
Always use FAEI in conjunction with a DB index otherwise it would cause multiple full table scans (one table scan for each FAEI packet).
The first field(s) of the DB index should refer to the fields of the FAEI driver table in the SQL WHERE clause. Do not leave gaps between index fields in the WHERE clause. Inefficient index access will impact every FAEI packets.
FAEI works best when retrieving a small percentage of data from a Database table. When a large percentage of data is needed, consider getting data out of the DB table without FAEI implementation, and then do additional filtration in your application
Reward points if found helpfull...

thanks jayant

Hi Jayant,
You cannot retrieve data first from BSEG and then from BKPF.
It is not correct and you cannot get the correct data.
You should use BKPF which is header table first and then
using for all entries retrieve data from BSEG.
Use date field in the select statement condition for BKPF table retrieval and
you don't have posting date field in BSEG.
If you do like this, it will definitely work.
Retrieve data from BKPF using date condition in SELECT statement.
Then, using for all entries retrieve from BSEG.

I have a problem in using for all entries

i have declared the two internal tables as below

<b>and now i have tried to move the values in those internal tables using these statements</b>
   SELECT A~EBELN A~LIFNR A~KNUMV B~VGABE B~EBELP B~GJAHR B~BELNR
        FROM EKKO AS A
        INNER JOIN EKBE AS B ON B~EBELN = A~EBELN

But when i was using loop then it was displaying values in debugging mode but while i was trying to execute it was taking a lot of time i thought that it was due to more information in the already declared internal table so i have tried to remove the previous entries but it was showing an error while i was removing the old entries
and when i remove the loop at itab1 then i'll get output directly but it was displaying the itab fields which is my 1st internal table but not the values of itab1 can u explain me what is the possible error for that
Regards ,
Pavan

before using for all entries in, u need to check whether the driver internal table is empty, if it is empty, u should not enter into select statement.
if u wont use this check means, when the driver internal table is empty, the second select will take all the entires from the tables.
SELECT AEBELN ALIFNR AKNUMV BVGABE BEBELP BGJAHR B~BELNR
        FROM EKKO AS A
        INNER JOIN EKBE AS B ON BEBELN = AEBELN
        INTO CORRESPONDING
        FIELDS OF TABLE ITAB WHERE B~VGABE = '2'.
if itab[] is not initial.
   SELECT EKPOEBELN EKPOMATNR EKPOTXZ01 EKPOWERKS EKPO~NETWR
          EKPOMENGE EKPOMWSKZ
      FROM EKPO
      INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE ITAB1
      FOR ALL ENTRIES IN ITAB
      WHERE EBELN = ITAB-EBELN.
endif.
I hope this will help u.

Selecting single value using for all entries.

Hi Experts,
I want to know that is it possible to fetch only the first record for a particular condition while using for all entries.
For ex:
Suppose i got 10 different vbeln from vbak table into my internal table it_vbak. For a particular vbeln there can be multiple records in vbap table.
Now i need to fetch only the first record which is getting from vbap table for different vbeln while using 'for all entries in it_vbak where vbeln = it_vbak-vbeln'. Is it possible?
Thanks in Advance

Hi Rob Burbank,
Thanks..
You are correct.. If that is the scenario in their company... Again it depends on the configuration and business process.. But it's possible that they may need to delete first on any line item after creation of sale order..
In that case below solution will work..
IF IT_VBAK[] IS NOT INITIAL.
SELECT * FROM VBAP
INTO TABLE IT_VBAP
for all entries in it_vbak
where vbeln = it_vbak-vbeln.
ENDIF.
SORT IT_VBAP BY VBELN POSNR.
LOOP AT IT_VBAK INTO WA_VBAK.
READ TABLE IT_VBAP INTO WA_VBAP WITH KEY VBELN = WA_VBAK-VBELN.
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
APPEND WA_VBAP TO IT_VBAP2. " Another Internal table which stores only first record
ENDIF.
CLEAR : WA_VBAP.
ENDLOOP.
OR
IT_VBAP3[] = IT_VBAP[].
SORT IT_VBAP3 BY VBELN POSNR.
DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM IT_VBAP3 COMPARING VBELN.
Now Table IT_VBAP2 and IT_VBAP3 will be having only first line items for all sales orders..
Do some little changes in the code as per your requirement.
Hope it will solve your problem..
Thanks & Regards

Duplicate entries missing using for all entries in select query.

Hi Gurus,
Is there any way to avoid missing duplicate entries in an internal table if you use for all entries in select statement?
Note : i am selecting two tables using non key fields and i have to aggregate the data. I want only 2 data fields and one amount field in my final internal table. I can add all the primary key fields into my internal table and collect my required fields in another table, but I just want to know is there any other way to avoid missing duplicate entries without adding all the key fields?
Regards,
Raghavendra

Hi,
Just check what are the other possible fields in the table which may be having
duplicate entries and make use of them in the selection accordingly.
You may not miss any entries unless there is any restriction on them.
You can better judge that in debugging mode while selecting data from that table.

Why should we select all key fields when using for all entries

Hi,
Why should we select all key fields in our select query when using for all entries statement?
I read about for all entries but this point was not clear in any post.
Please explain me
Regards,
Subhashini

Dear Subhasini,
It is because FOR ALL ENTRIES deletes the duplicate entries before populating the target internal table.
Please do an F1 on FOR ALL ENTRIES & read the SAP documentation.
I mean how duplicate entries will not get deleted when we use this?
Quite simple, if you select all key fields then each entry will be unique & there will not be any duplicate entries to delete !!

Suhas

Performance Issue in Select Statement (For All Entries)

Hello,
I have a report where i have two select statement
First Select Statement:
Select A B C P Q R
     from T1 into Table it_t1
          where ....
Internal Table it_t1 is populated with 359801 entries through this select statement.
Second Select Statement:
Select A B C X Y Z
     from T2 in it_t2 For All Entries in it_t1
          where A eq it_t1-A
             and B eq it_t1-B
             and C eq it_t1-C
Now Table T2 contains more than 10 lac records and at the end of select statement it_t2 is populated with 844003 but it takes a lot of time (15 -20 min) to execute second select statement.
Can this code be optimized?
Also i have created respective indexes on table T1 and T2 for the fields in Where Condition.
Regards,

If you have completed all the steps mentioned by others, in the above thread, and still you are facing issues then,.....
Use a Select within Select.
First Select Statement:
Select A B C P Q R package size 5000
     from T1 into Table it_t1
          where ....
Second Select Statement:
Select A B C X Y Z
     from T2 in it_t2 For All Entries in it_t1
          where A eq it_t1-A
             and B eq it_t1-B
             and C eq it_t1-C
do processing........
endselect
This way, while using for all entries on T2, your it_t1, will have limited number of entries and thus the 2nd select will be faster.
Thanks,

         AND objnr ne it_jest-objnr.
dont use NE in the select statements, it may effect performance also. Instead use if statements inside
loops.
loop at t_caufv.
read table it_chrd............
if t_caufv-objnr ne it_chrd-objnr.
read table it_jest..........
   if   if t_caufv-objnr ne it_jest-objnr.
    (proceed further).
   endif.
endif.
endloop.
hope this helps.

Populating Empty Fields for Existing Internal Table Using For All Entries

I have an internal table called itab_extract that populates without any issues in SELECT A and SELECT B below. Trying to avoid looping, I am using select DB table 'for all entries' in itab_extract. I want the empty fields in itab_extract to populate from the values in the database. However, about 200,000 entries are being appended to the table, and, the values that existed for the already populated fields in itab_extract are gone, and the new fields are populated.
I've played with the syntax and cannot seem to get it to work. My next option is a time consuming loop.
How should the for all entries syntax look to accomplish filling the empty fields in the itab?   Thank-You
*read ekko
    select ebeln lifnr aedat bsart from ekko                                                     *SELECT A*
           into CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE me->itab_extract
           where aedat in r_aedat.
    select ebeln lifnr aedat BSART from ekko                                                  *SELECT B*
           appending CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE me->itab_extract
           where aedat in S_DATE2 AND
                 BSART IN S_BSART.
      select ebelp werks matnr                                                                           *SELECT C*
        into CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE itab_extract
        from ekpo
        FOR ALL ENTRIES IN itab_extract
        where ebeln = itab_extract-ebeln.

Hi Tom,
           This SQL statement will be time consuming, Do not use a loop.
There are two options.
1. Select EKKO and EKPO details based on standard SAP view. (You can type EKKO in se11 view to find the correct view).
    also use one range table populate r_aedat and s_date2 in the same. So you where condition will have r_newrange and
    s_bsart. Also do not use into corresponding fields, it is not a good idea. It will increase your performance. Maintain the proper
    sequence (Based on database structure of EKKO and EKPO)
2. If you are keen to use for all entries, then first select ekko then after your sy-subrc check get the data from EKPO.
Should be like this.
select ebeln bsart aedat lifnr from ekko into table gt_ekko where aedat in r_newrange and bsart in s_bsart.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
sort gt_ekko by ebeln ascending.
select ebeln ebelp werks matnr into table gt_ekpo for all entries in gt_ekko where ebeln eq gt_ekko-ebeln.
endif.
Hope it helps,

Hi All,Pre-requisite of using FOR ALL ENTRIES

Hi All,
         What are the Pre-requisite of using FOR ALL ENTRIES in the select statement .pls its Urgent .
thanks&regards.
Bharat

hi,
For using for all entries in below statement for all entries in itab_mara it will retrieve record corresponding fields of table itab_marc.
In this case if we have duplicate records in mara .For that also it will retrieve the value in itab_marc.
select matnr erdat from table itab_mara where matnr in s_matnr.
if not itab_mara is initial.
select matnr werks from table itab_marc for all entries of table itab_mara
                                                      where werks in s_werks and
                                                                matnr in s_matnr.

Select query 'for all entries'

Hello Friends,
       SELECT emp_id emp_name
       INTO corresponding fields of table itab_emp
       FROM employee
       for all entries in itab_dept
       WHERE emp_id = itab_dept_emp_id.
In the above select query we are using 'for all entries' for the internal table itab_dept.What will happen if the join fails?Will we get any data in the output table?
What is the prerequisites for using 'for all entries'.
Please advice me on this.
Regards
Ashish.

Hi
In this case all the records available in employee table are extracted into internal table itab_emp.
It is safe to check whether itab_dept is initial or not.
If it is initial then stop the select query.
Check the following program u will get an idea.
Also try this program by removing comment to 'REFRESH IT_LFA1'.
REPORT ZBM_PG                                  .
TABLES: LFA1, EKKO.
DATA:
     IT_LFA1 TYPE TABLE OF LFA1 WITH NON-UNIQUE DEFAULT KEY INITIAL SIZE 10,
      IT_LFA1 TYPE TABLE OF LFA1 WITH HEADER LINE,
      IT_EKKO TYPE TABLE OF EKKO WITH HEADER LINE.
SELECT * FROM LFA1 INTO TABLE IT_LFA1 WHERE LIFNR EQ '0000001000' OR LIFNR EQ '0000001500'.
SELECT * FROM LFA1 INTO TABLE IT_LFA1 UP TO 1 ROWS.
refresh it_lfa1.
SELECT * FROM EKKO INTO TABLE IT_EKKO FOR ALL ENTRIES IN IT_LFA1 WHERE LIFNR = IT_LFA1-LIFNR.
LOOP AT IT_EKKO.
WRITE: / IT_EKKO-LIFNR, IT_EKKO-EBELN.
ENDLOOP.

What is the condition for using 'for all entries' and why?

what is the condition for using 'for all entries' and why? can any body tell the reason for this ? its a big favour of me .
regards,
ravi.

hi,
for all entries is used to join two or more tables.
It is same as join but performance wise for all entries is more effective.
You can only use FOR ALL ENTRIES IN ...WHERE ...in a SELECT statement.
SELECT ... FOR ALL ENTRIES IN itab WHERE cond returns the union of the solution sets of all SELECT
statements that would result if you wrote a separate statement for each line of the internal table replacing the symbol
itab-f with the corresponding value of component f in the WHERE condition.Duplicates are discarded from the result
set. If the internal table itab does not contain any entries, the system treats the statement as though there were
no WHERE cond condition, and selects all records (in the current client).
for example:
SELECT * FROM sflight INTO wa_sflight
FOR ALL ENTRIES IN ftab
WHERE CARRID = ftab-carrid AND
CONNID = ftab-connid AND
fldate = '20010228'.
this condition, return all entries of the sflight
hen using FOR ALL ENTRIES the number of matching records is restricted to the number of records in the internal table. If the number of records in the database tables is too large then join would cause overheads in performance. Additionally a JOIN bypasses the table buffering.
So for all entries is used for filtering out the data from the two tables based on the entries in them.
Advantages:
1) For all entries avoids inner join & so the performance increases.
2) For specified values in 1 itab, if you to fetch values from other table you can use it.
3) Use of select stmt in loop is gets avoided, as u can use read statement on the the new itab.

Is it not recommended to use FOR ALL ENTRIES in version 4.5B

Hi,
Is it not recommended to used For all entries in version 4.5B as Size limit for SQL is 32KB hence we should not be using FOR ALL ENTRIES, instead of this we should be using select inside the loop?
Can anyone please let me know if this is correct and if you can provide me the SAP documentation on the specific statement.
Regards
Ria

Hi Ria,
From what I understand, you cannot use JOINS with FOR ALL ENTRIES in 4.5b & lower versions. In general the SELECT..FOR ALL ENTRIES statement has been in use from 3.1i versions. For more information, PL take a look at OSS Note #652634.
