Where Clause With Multiple Rows

I am tracking Objects called Incidents. Incidents can be made up of an undetermined number of questions and answers, such that my table structure to store these incidents looks as follows:
INCIDENT_ID     QUESTION_ID     ANSWER_ID
10001             49100         100 ("YES")
10001             49101         275 ("5 HOURS")
10002             49100         102 ("NO")
10002             49101         276 ("10 HOURS")I allow my users to enter complex queries, such as "give me all incidents where question 49100 equals YES AND question 49101 equals 5 or less, OR where 49100 equals NO and 49101 is greater than 5", etc...
My problem is how to handle these types of complex queries. Right now, I bring all of the rows into a Java object, and then I can analyze the results using Java (this works elegantly and allows me to have very complex formulas).
However, if I have to deal with millions of Incidents and Answers, bringing them all into Java seems to be very time consuming. I'd like to be able to handle everything in the database. Because I allow my users to enter the queries through a "query builder", I can't control how many conditions they might have. In other words, if I try to use inner queries in the WHERE clause, I may exceed limits.
It would be easiest if I could translate this vertical table into a temporary horizontal table, and then run my query on this horizontal table. My problem is that some of my questions have 1000s of answers (where they might be picking from a large select list), and therefore I can't do sums and counts on all the choices in separate columns. If I try a bit field for each column, once again I can run out of space because of the 1000s of possible answers.
Has anyone faced this issue before? What choices do I have to make this all work in the database without having to parse the results in Java?

I was under the impression that each medication uses a unique id itself (defined perhaps by the medical insurance industry) and that itemized lists contain that code. And thus the user can type in the code.
If so then one could handle the interface using both of the following methods.
- The user can type in the id (this is validated.)
- The user can push a button to bring up a dialog that provides the list and also provides an intelligent search option. (Or the id field can just be an aspect of the intelligent search.)
Even in a small doctor's office experienced users will probably know the common ids and it would be simpler for them to type that in. In a processing center this would be more important as the time to process each transaction directly impacts the bottom line. This becomes much more relevant when the users are paid bonuses based on how many transactions they process (and managers might get that as well.)

How can I pass multiple condition in where clause with the join table?

Hi:
I need to collect several inputs at run time, and query the record according to the input.
How can I pass multiple conditions in where clause with the join table?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Regards,

If you are using SQL-Plus or Reports you can use lexical parameters like:
SELECT * FROM emp &condition;
When you run the query it will ask for value of condition and you can enter what every you want. Here is a really fun query:
SELECT &columns FROM &tables &condition;
But if you are using Forms. Then you have to change the condition by SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY.
Best of luck!

Web dynpro screen with multiple rows with columns that can be edited

Web dynpro screen with multiple rows with columns that can be edited individually:
Hi
I am busy creating a screen in web dynpro for ABAP which we would like to make available via Portal ESS (Portal 7).
I need to add 'n type of table (or almost something like Excel) or something in which someone can type a few paycode numbers (there should be lets say 10 blank rows in which info can be typed in and if I click on a button or so, more rows must be added if necessary. Then in the other colums stuff like amounts must be entered which one should also be able to edit then and there.
Can anyone assist in what I can use for this? There does not seem to be some existing element that I can use.
Help will be appreciated.
Regards
Debbie

Hi Debbie,
Whiel Creating table you need to be care full that use chose INPUT FIELD as the CELL EDITOR. Just guessing that if ur table is not editable u might have choosen TextView as default cell editor type.
check link for details on TABLE UI
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/EN/b5/ac884118aa1709e10000000a155106/frameset.htm]
easy way is to first add UI ELEMENT TABLE to your VIEW, then right click over it & select create binding from context. After you have a pop up where you can select what columns you want what should be its cell editor etc.

Where clause with time stamp

Hii,
I have an issue with using where clause with time stamp. My requirement is to
select * from driver_on_policy
where last_change_datetime = '2001-03-06 19:00:06'
date is in this form 6/3/2001 7:00:06 PM
thnks
sam

If you want to use '6/3/2001 7:00:06 PM', then
where last_change_datetime = to_timestamp('6/3/2001 7:00:06 PM','DD/MM/YYYY HH:MI:SS PM')If you can use a literal string in ANSI standard YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS format, then just
where last_change_datetime = timestamp '2001-03-06 19:00:06' (That 'DD/MM' might need to be switched around to 'MM/DD' if you are in America.)

Where clause with a combination of And and Or statements - Basic question

Hi,
I have a where clause with a combination of And and Or statements... May I know which one would run first
Here is the sample
WHERE SITE_NAME = 'Q' AND ET_NAME IN ('12', '15') AND TEST_DATE > DATE OR SITE_NAME = 'E' AND ET_NAME IN ('19', '20')
can you please explain how this combination works
Thanks in advance

Hi,
This reminds me of a great story. It's so good, it probably didn't really happen, but it's so good, I'm going to repeat it anyway.
IBM once had an "executive apptitude test" that they would give to job applicants. There were some questions you might call general knowlege or trivia questions, and each question had a weight (for example, answering an unimportant queestion might score one point, an important question might be 5 points.) One of the questions was "What is the standard width of a mobile home?", and the weight of the question was -20: answering the question correctly did serious harm to your score. The reasoning was that the more you knew about mobile homes, the less likely you were to be their kind of executive.
Now, as to your question, the correct answer is: I don't know. I don't want to know. Mixing ANDs and ORs without grouping them in parentheses is a really bad idea. Even if you get it right, it's going to confuse the next person who has to look at that code. Use parentheses to make sure the code is doing what you want it to do.
If you really want to find out, it's documented in the SQL language manual. Look up "Operators, prcedence"
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e26088/operators001.htm#sthref815
You can easily do an experiment, using scott.emp, or even dual, where
WHERE (x AND y)
OR      zproduces different results from
WHERE   x

Generate a where clause with outer join criteria condition: (+)=

Hi,
In my search page, I use Auto Customization Criteria mode, and I build where clause by using get Criteria():

Vector parameters = new Vector(5);
int clauseCount = 0;
int bindCount = 1;
for(int i=0; i < dicSize; i++){
String itemName = (String)(dic.get(OAViewObject.CRITERIA_ITEM_NAME));
Object value = dic[i].get(OAViewObject.CRITERIA_VALUE);
String joinCondition = (String)dic[i].get(OAViewObject.CRITERIA_JOIN_CONDITION);
String criteriaCondition = (String)dic[i].get(OAViewObject.CRITERIA_CONDITION);
String criteriaDataType = (String)dic[i].get(OAViewObject.CRITERIA_DATATYPE);

if(clauseCount > 0){
whereClause.append(" AND ");
whereClause.append(columnName + " " + criteriaCondition + " :");
whereClause.append(++bindCount);
parameters.addElement(value);
clauseCount++;

and rs.salesrep_id = gs.salesrep_id (+)
and gs.comp_plan_id = comp.comp_plan_id (+)
and gs.period_year (+) = :1 -- :1 p_fiscal_year

Dynamic where clause for MULTIPLE values

In the following of dynamic where clause?
i have some somewhat different problem.
Is a dynamic where clause for multiple values possible?
If the inputvariable varCode1,varCode2,varCode3,varCode4 are 0 then show all id's otherwise filter the resultset on var1 and/or var2,and/or var3,and/or var4.
Example table:
create table t
(d int,var int);
insert into t values (1 ,1 );
insert into t values (2 ,1 );
insert into t values (3 ,2 );
insert into t values (4 ,3 );
insert into t values (5 ,4 );
insert into t values (6 ,4 );
insert into t values (7 ,4 );
insert into t values (8 ,4 );
insert into t values (9 ,5 );
insert into t values (10, 6);
insert into t values (11, 6);
So what i want to change the where clause upon the value of the varCodes. If var1 and var are not 0 a "AND" should be used otherwise an "OR"
select id
from tst
where var = DECODE( :varCode1, 0, var, :varCode1)
or/and(?) DECODE( :varCode2, 0, var, :varCode2)
or DECODE( :varCode3, 0, var, :varCode3)
or DECODE( :varCode4, 0, var, :varCode4)

Mysterious where clause with japanese

enviroment:

thanks in advance!

Thanks for replies and Sorry for my rashness, maybe the following
scripts could explain the problem more well. I create a table named
ja_test with two fields(EXECUTABLE_NAME and DESCRIPTION), both of the
type is varchar2, and there is only one record in the table,
but the DESCRIPTION contains JAPANESE characters, when i use a where
clause like this "where j.executable_name = 'XX00MRP0411C';", everything
seems work fine, but when the where clase include JAPANESE characters
like this "j.description = '需要供給データ作成マネージャ';", even if
the "j.description" is copied form database, no records returned:
SQL> select * from ja_test j where j.executable_name = 'XX00MRP0411C';

I have regisetred a EIT with multiple rows Yes, can we change it NO now.

I have registered a EIT with multiple rows Yes, can we change it NO now.

Hi,
Yes you can change this through back-end.
Register extra information (types) concurrent program run the package HR_REGISTER_EITS and insert definintion of an EIT in respective INFO_TYPES tabel for example if person EIT then definition is stored in PER_PEOPLE_INFO_TYPES.
In this table we have column MULTIPLE_OCCURENCES_FLAG which can have value as Y or N, Y - Multiple entries allowed, N - Multiple entries not allowed.
You need to update the value of this flag to N for your EIT definition and you are done.
Thanks,
Sanjay

Editable table with multiple rows

Hi All!
We're trying to develop some application in VC 7.0. That application should read data from some R/3 tables (via standard and custom functional modules), then display data to user and allow him/her to modify it (or add some data into table rows), and then save it back to R/3.
What is the best way to do that?
There's no problem with displaying data.
But when I try to add something to table (on portal interface), I'm able to use only first row of the table... Even if I fill all fields of that row, I'm not able to add data to second row, etc.
Second question. Is it possible to display in one table contents of output of several BAPIs? For example we have three bapis, one displaying user, second displays that user's subordinates, and the third one - that user's manager. And we want one resulting table...
And last. What is the best way to submit data from table view in VC (portal) to R/3 table? I understand that we should write some functional module, that puts data to R/3. I'm asking about what should be done in VC itself. Some button, or action...
Any help will be appreciated and rewarded :o)
Regards,
DK

Table row with multiple row

Hi All,
I am using NWDS 2004
I want to have a table with multiple rows in a row.
Can any one help ?
Thanks

hi Akhilesh,
Use tree table for your requirement.
