Selecting data from external table

Hi there

I have the correct privileges on the directory, but the error seems to be on the EMPLOYER_NAME field. The file I try to upload is in pipe-delimited format. The last field in the file does not have a pipe-delimiter at the end. Can this be the problem? Must I go and look for any trailing spaces? Can I specify in the external table script how many characters I need for the employer_name field? We receive this file from an external company
Thank you very much for the help
Ferdie

common mistake, you gave the field sizes in the
column listing of the table, but not in the file
definition. oracle does not apply one to the other.
in the file defintion section, give explict field
sizes.Hi shoblock
Sorry for only coming back to you now, thank you for your help, I had to give the explicit field size for the last column (employer name).
Thank you once again!!

It would appear that you external table definition and the external data file data do not match up. Post a few input records so someone can duplicate the problem and determine the fix.

Problem while selecting data from external tables

Hi All,
I am facing a problem with external tabels. I have created an external table
create table ext_org_table
( id varchar2(10)
, name varchar2(100)
,id_parent varchar2(10)
,name_parent varchar2(100))
organization external
( type oracle_loader
default directory MYDIR
access parameters
records delimited by newline
nologfile
nobadfile
fields terminated by ','
missing field values are null
location ('Orgdata.csv')
reject limit unlimited;
The problem is that when i give select * from ext_org_table , i get following error
ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEOPEN callout
ORA-29400: data cartridge error
KUP-04040: file Orgdata.csv in MYDIR not found
ORA-06512: at "SYS.ORACLE_LOADER", line 19
ORA-06512: at line 1
Now , i have file Orgdata.csv in the specified directory.
I have created directory in oracle using create directory command.
I have granted read,write permission on the directory to user.
I have given all read,write and execute permissions to folder where my files resides.My file resides in /appl/home/kk
Now i don't understand why it is giving error file in Mydir not found.
Kindly suggest.
Regards
Krish

Hi,
You are obviously doing someting wrong.
May be the direcotry is not present or may be the file is not rpesent in the directory.
I just tried ths
Connected to Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0
Connected as SYS
create directory mydir as 'c:\csv';
grant read,write on directory mydir to scott;From Scott
create table ext_org_table

nobadfile
fields terminated by ','
missing field values are null
location ('Orgdata.csv')
reject limit unlimited;
select * from ext_org_table;Ofcourse i made up some dummy data to test and its all OK.
again,
You may want to check if
1) If the directory exists (select * from all_directories where directory_name='MYDIR');
2) If the user has the read/write permissions on that directory
3) If the file orgdata exists in that directory.

How to select data from a table using a date field in the where condition?

How to select data from a table using a date field in the where condition?
For eg:
data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
and bdatu = '31129999'.
thanks.

Hi Ramesh,
Specify the date format as YYYYMMDD in where condition.
Dates are internally stored in SAP as YYYYMMDD only.
Change your date format in WHERE condition as follows.
data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
and bdatu = '99991231'.
I doubt check your data base table EQUK on this date for the existince of data.
Otherwise, just change the conidition on BDATU like below to see all entries prior to this date.
data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
and bdatu <= '99991231'.

How to select data from a table by passing document number from another tab

How to select data from a table by passing document number from another table.
for eg:-
I want to display name, adres, region from ADRC table
by using field delivery document number
Kind Regards,
Shanbagavalli.S

Hi Shanbagavalli,
There are multiple solutions to this questions a few i will try to answer and then you can take the best required for your requirements.
**Consider that you have a Internal table having document number from other table..
SELECT NAME ADRES REGION FROM ADRC
       INTO IT_ADRC
       FOR ALL ENTRIES IN IT_DOC
       WHERE DOCUMENT_NO = IT_DOC-DOCUMENT_NO.
**Consider that you have 1 document number then
SELECT NAME ADRES REGION FROM ADRC
     INTO IT_ADRC
     WHERE DOCUMENT_NO = W_DOCUMENT_NO.
Hope this solves your problem.

Selecting data from two tables

I am trying to select data from two tables. The only problem that I am running into, is that i am only seeing results from my 'uploads' table. there is also a record in documents where user = 1 that should show up. here is my sql:
$userIDNum = 1;
$sql="Select *
from uploads, documents
WHERE uploads.user = documents.user AND uploads.user = $userIDNum
ORDER BY uploads.title ASC, documents.title ASC";

You'll need to explain a little more about your data and what you are trying to accomplish. Your current sql will select all columns from both the uploads and documents tables but only rows where the user id in both tables match, AND the user id equals 1. Is that not what you are seeing? Where's the code that outputs the results?

Load data from external table

Hi ,
How to load data from external table to transaction table using SQLLDR ?

You use an external table to load the data it is described in the link to the manual I provided.
Here is an example.
Re: Using DML order to import a .xls file
You would not be using SQLLDR though as external tables replace that functionality.

Select data from a table and a view: field with same content and different type

hi all,
I need data from a table hrp1001 and a view V_USR_NAME. What they have in common are the content of the fields SOBID and BNAME .
It will be easier if those fields add a same type but they dont.
Any suggestions for a workaround?
Thanks

Hi Ramesh,
Specify the date format as YYYYMMDD in where condition.
Dates are internally stored in SAP as YYYYMMDD only.
Change your date format in WHERE condition as follows.
data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
and bdatu = '99991231'.
I doubt check your data base table EQUK on this date for the existince of data.
Otherwise, just change the conidition on BDATU like below to see all entries prior to this date.
data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
and bdatu <= '99991231'.

im using for all entries instead of inner joins, even though burden on data base tables is going very high ( 90 % in se30)
hw to increase the performance.
kindly, reply.
thnks

Also Check you are not using open sql much like distict order by group by , use abap techniques on internal table to acive the same.
also Dont use select endselect.
if possible use up to n rows claus....
taht will limit the data base hits.
also dont run select in siode any loops.
i guess these are some of the trics oyu can use to avoid frequent DATA BASE HITS AND ABVOID THE DATA BASE LAOD.

I think there was a sample of using CURSOR in the XSQL docs.Check section:

Selecting Data from CE1* tables

Hi guys!
Why is it that when I select data from our CE1* table, it is faster to select
PERIO = '2007.007'
than to select
GJAHR = '2007' and PERDE = '007'?
Thanks!

I found out now. It is because actual data for PALEDGER is '010' not '10'.
Thanks anyway!

Selecting data from three tables

Hi Every one...
I have three tables, Tbl_FlData, Tbl_Flsubdata,Tbl_OutDirection_Dtl, in these tables the common columns are OUTNO, OUTYEAR. When I am trying to pull data from two tables Tbl_Fldata, Tbl_OutDirection_Dtl by using below query I am getting exact output what i want.
SELECT Tbl_FLData.OUTNO, Tbl_FLData.OUTHDATE,Tbl_OutDirection_Dtl.OTSERNO FROM Tbl_FLData INNER JOIN Tbl_OutDirection_Dtl ON Tbl_FLData.OUTYEAR = Tbl_OutDirection_Dtl.OUTYEAR AND Tbl_FLData.OUTNO = Tbl_OutDirection_Dtl.OUTNO.
But the problem is, when I am trying to pull a column from Tbl_FlSubdata.Remarks the out put is coming but the records are duplicating.
The fields of the tables are
Tbl_FlData: OUTNO, OUTYEAR, OUTHDATE, SUBJECT,USERDEPTCODE, FDEPTCODE, SENDHDATE, REPLYINDAYS, EXPECTEDHDATE, UD_UID
Tbl_FLSUBDATA: OUTNO, OUTYEAR, OTSSERNO, SEQNO, EMPCODE, SEQHDATE, REMARKS, UD_UID
Tbl_OutDirectionDtl : OUTNO, OUTYEAR, OTSERNO, DI_Code, REPLYHDATA, INNO, INHDATE, IN_UD_UID, IN_REMARKS.
Please help me in this issue.

Hi,
Try something like this.
SELECT distinct Tbl_FLData.OUTNO,
Tbl_FLData.OUTHDATE,
Tbl_FLSUBDATA.OTSSERNO
Tbl_OutDirection_Dtl.OTSERNO
FROM Tbl_FLData, Tbl_FLSUBDATA, Tbl_OutDirection_Dtl
where Tbl_FLSUBDATA.OUTNO = Tbl_FLData.OUTNO(+)
and Tbl_OutDirection_Dtl.OUTNO = Tbl_FLData.OUTNO(+)
order by Tbl_FLData.OUTNO;
considering Tbl_FLData as the master table. If there are any other unique fields like "out_no" include it a way as above after "where" with a (+) join and see if you still get duplicates.
