ABAP Query --List Width

Hi,
I have a requirement for ABAP Query using transaction sq03.
I have to add a new column and since the field length is char132, when i place the field in "Basic List" tab in Sq03, the field goes to the
next line.Now, when I execute the output, only the fields in the first line (in Basic List) get displayed. The fields in the second line do not get displayed. Also, I cannot fit the second line fields in the first line as the maximum list width is 254. I need a solution to display the 2nd line fields in output.
Thanks in advance.

Tejas Savla

Hi Teja ,
what u can do is , change its display length of that field .
SQ01---> In the change Mode --->basic List ---> Click on the Field --->Down Left u will get options to change display length.

ABAP Query - Sorting Issue in Basic List (SQ03)

Hi,
I have developed a ABAP Query. I want to sort some of the fields, for which I need to add some output fields to the sort sequence box in the Basic List page in SQ03/SQ01. But, I am not able to drag and drop the fields directly. Please suggest how can this be done? Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Tejas Savla

Hi Abhishek,
There are three things related to Query.
1) You have to create the USER GROUP in SQ03.
2) You have to create the Infoset in SQ02. In this infoset you can write the logic of the program/Query what ever you want to perform.So you can sort the table in the infoset in the program logic.you have to create the output table of the query.
3) you have to create the Query in SQ01 and you have to associate the User group and infoset . you have to design the layput of the output you want to have.this output fields would be same as you have defined in infoset(step 2).
hope this will help you.
thanks

Hyperlink on field in Basic list of ABAP Query

Dear All,
Could somebody tell me, if its possible to have a hyperlink on a field in the Basic list of ABAP Query (SQ01,SQ02).
Example :- There is a basic list which has the field MARA-MATNR displayed.There should be a hyperlink on this field, such that when the user clicks on it , the transaction MM03 is called.
Thanking You.
Ranu

Hi,
Loop at itab.
write:/ itab-matnr hotspot,
          itab-maktx.
hide: itab-matnr.
endloop.
data: c_field(16).
at line-selection.
get cursor field c_field.
if c_field = 'ITAB-MATNR'.
    check not itab-matnr is initial.
    set parameter id 'MAT' field itab-matnr.
    call transaction 'MM03' and skip first screen.
endif.
This is one example to call the transaction.
If this helps you award points.
Thanks,
Deepak.

Hi
Welcome to SDN forum
query has got some limitatins compared to Reports which we write using SE38
these queries are user specific and client specific and can't be transportable and you can't write your own code as you wish like reports
see the doc
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/35/26b413afab52b9e10000009b38f974/content.htm
http://www.thespot4sap.com/Articles/SAP_ABAP_Queries_Introduction.asp
Step-by-step guide for creating ABAP query
http://www.sappoint.com/abap/ab4query.pdf
ABAP query is mostly used by functional consultants.
SAP Query
Purpose
The SAP Query application is used to create lists not already contained in the SAP standard system. It has been designed for users with little or no knowledge of the SAP programming language ABAP. SAP Query offers users a broad range of ways to define reporting programs and create different types of reports such as basic lists, statistics, and ranked lists.
Features
SAP Query's range of functions corresponds to the classical reporting functions available in the system. Requirements in this area such as list, statistic, or ranked list creation can be met using queries.
All the data required by users for their lists can be selected from any SAP table created by the customer.
To define a report, you first have to enter individual texts, such as titles, and select the fields and options which determine the report layout. Then you can edit list display in WYSIWYG mode whenever you want using drag and drop and the other toolbox functions available.
ABAP Query, as far as I Believe, is the use of select statements in the ABAP Programming. This needs a knowledge of Open SQL commands like Select,UPdtae, Modify etc. This has to be done only by someone who has a little bit of ABAP experience.
To sum up, SAP queries are readymade programs given by SAP, which the user can use making slight modification like the slection texts, the tables from which the data is to be retrieved and the format in which the data is to be displayed.ABAP queries become imperative when there is no such SAP query existing and also when there is a lot of customizing involved to use a SAP Query directly
use either SQ02 ans SQ01
or SQVI tr code
for more information please go thru this url:

How to hide some fields in ABAP Query

Hi,
My ABAP Query has a long list of extracted fields. I wanted to set some of these output to "HIDE".
This allow User the flexibility to decide what fields to show.
How can I set the field to "HIDE" in my query?
Thanks

Hi Tim,
You can do this by setting the Report layout variant in following steps:
1. First define the parameter on selection screent for report variant.
2. Data decelaration for variant.
3. Value request to get already present variants on report:
4. If doesn't choose the layout take out the default report layout.
5. Initialize the report variant.
6. Apply the variant to the REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY funtion module.
         Here to generate report variant first to open report output and then as per according to user set the layout of report using the layout icon of ALV with summation on value fields (as required) and create layout name.

ABAP Query error

Hello! can anyone help pls?
I am in the process of constructing an ABAP query and I'm getting an error message which is quite puzzling. Here's the details:
I'm creating the query using an infoset constructed from logical database VAV. When I try to add field VBUP-GBSTA to my basic list design, I get the following error:
"You placed fields from different parallel branches of the hierarchical data source in the same line. . This makes no sense. The list will not be displayed as you desire. . List is only displayed in simple format for correction purposes. . Please check the sequence. Button allows you to color list fields according to the hierarchy. "
I don't know why this is the case, and I really need to report on that field. Any ideas would be most appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Hello Elizabeth,
I hope you have selected VBUP also in the hierarchy in the infoset. If this is selected and the field which you are looking for (GBSTA) is assigned to a field group, then u should be able to select this in the basic list.
Hope this helps
Abhijit

ABAP Query Layout not proper

Hi experts,
I am facing a problem regarding the output display of ABAP Query that I have created using SAP List Viewer.
I have used logical database VFV in the query and some selection fields and some additional fields also.
The output is shown to me as a list output rather than an ALV output.
Please suggest a solution so that I can display the output in ALV format and not List format.
Regards,
Garima.

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?
Regards,
Garima.

ABAP query not returning correct number of records

Hi,
I have created an ABAP Query using logical database VFV and nodes VBRK, VBUK and VBRP.
But, after entering values for Sales Organisation ( VBRK-VKORG ), Distribution channel ( VBRK-VTWEG ) and Date ( VBRK-FKDAT), the number of records that I get are very less in number as compared to the actual number in the database.
Please give some pointers to the reason. I have set Lines 60 and Columns length - 83 and selected ALV List.
Regards,
Garima.

Hi Garima,
Please Check whether you are selecting all the Key fields in your Query.
Thanks & Regards,
Ashok kumar.

Validate plants selected in Abap Query selection screen

Hi Everyone,
I have a requirement wherein i have to validate 'authority check' for the plants populated in the selection screen in an already created abap query.
I tried adding code in the code section. But i dont know how to use the select-option parameter. It already exists(VBAP-WERKS) in the table which is used for join, so i cannot add it in the additional fields. Am i correct ?
Also, i saw that the report program for this query uses this parameter sa SP$00008. I tried using it but it gives an error The IN operator with "SP$00008" is followed neither by an internal table nor by a value list.
Please help.
Also, please advice whether this requirement can be catered in this query alone? or should i go with writing a new report program for this? ( i personally feel that this would beat the purpose of using Abap Query. )
Regards,
Tarun

Hi Tarun,
I am still not clear with the problem..I guess you require plant in your selection screen which you have.
i guess if you go to sq01tcode there is a option infoset query from where you can give your selection options and value.
have you selected all the fields in infoset and made a selection screen?
When you have done with your infoset you just need to diplay the fields and there is a automatic program generated.
Let me know...
Regards,
Nihkil.

Hi Balaji,
Here is the details of ABAP Query
ABAP Query
An ABAP Workbench tool that enables users without knowledge of the ABAP programming language to define and execute their own reports.
In ABAP Query, you enter texts and select fields and options to determine the structure of the reports. Fields are selected from functional areas and can be assigned a sequence by numbering.
ABAP Query offers the following types of reports:
Basic lists
Statistics
Ranked lists
I hope it will clear for you,

Performance of ABAP query program

Hi All,
A custom program AQNWZ_TALAT=====TCS_AP_ITEMS== is taking lot of time running. And when checked the cost of the select statement is very high.
I guessed it must be some custom abap query. Correct me if I am wrong.
Also please let me know how to do the performance tuning on this code? Should I be editing the program directly or should I edit at the abap query level.

Pooja

>A few tips you can use for finetuning a Report
The actually a good collection of the most important pain points. But the recommendations are unfortunately quite poor, and even wrong. I have updated them a little bit.
And for German speaking people I have added a reference to a textbook, where arll my recommendations are explained in detail.
Siegfried
1) Use mostly primary key to access data.
... nonsense, the task determines the WHERE clause, it is not your choice
2) Before READ u sort the itab
No
3) use mostly the indexes fields in ur where clause.
... as 1, it is the other way, the task determines the WHERE-clause, make surwe that there is an index which
supports it
4) Restrict the the fields retrieved by your select sentences to the minimal set. (Avoid select *)
nonsense, most SELECT use and must use *, use field list in wide tables
5) try to use specify where clause so the abap sql optimizer chooses the right index.
o.k., but who understands that in depth?
6) Avoid sentences like select lifnr name1 into corresponding fields of lfa1 from lfa1 where....
feel free to use if required
(You should declare a working area and select into the working area, is twice faster)
... such general statements are always incorrect
7) use hashed tables instead of standard tables. They are faster
no, use sorted tables, hashed are very special and can only be used if there is a unique key
8) avoid the use of collect as much as you can.
total nonsense, use collect with hashed tables, works perfect, if you use it with standard tables, do not mix it with other statements
1 Always check the driver internal tables is not empty , while using FOR ALL ENTRIES
100% correct
2 Avoid for all entries in JOINS
... not generally true
3 Try to avoid joins and use FOR ALL ENTRIES.
... hmmm, there are pages of discussions, this statement was wrong, is wrong and will be wrong!!!
4 Try to restrict the joins to 1 level only ie only for 2 tables
nonsense, joins are complicated, you must know hw indexes are used, if everything is fine, then 10 or 20 tables can be joined
5 Avoid using Select *.
see 4)
6 Avoid having multiple Selects from the same table in the same object.
... try to avoid to SELECT the same data, different criteria can be necessary
7 Try to minimize the number of variables to save memory.
... obvious,
8 The sequence of fields in 'where clause' must be as per primary/secondary index ( if any)
... no is must not the optimizer will not be influenced be the order , but do it, it increases readability
9 Avoid creation of index as far as possible
... no, o.k. if you are not experienced than avoid ... otherwise the creation of the required indexes is absolutely mandatory for new tables, for SAP standard tables most indexes are already there. But still if very new accesses are added, then new indexes can become necessary.
10 Avoid operators like , > , < & like % in where clause conditions
... no, you must add them, but be aware that the search is only poorly supported by them, but the result set is reduced.
11 Avoid select/select single statements in loops.
... if they are going to the database! If the tables are buffered, then these statements are perfect!
12 Try to use 'binary search' in READ internal table. Ensure table is sorted before using BINARY SEARCH.
.... Actually try to avoid standard tables, use sorted tables instead. If you must use a standard table, than the recommendation is true.
13 Avoid using aggregate functions (SUM, MAX etc) in selects ( GROUP BY , HAVING,)
.... no, use them if required. Again, if table is buffered, then they MUST be avoided.
14 Avoid using ORDER BY in selects
... if it is not ORDER BY PRIMARY KEY. Again, if the table is buffered, then other orders MUST be avoided.
15 Avoid Nested Selects
... use join. Again, if the tables are buffered, then Nested SELECTs are fine!
16 Avoid Nested Loops of Internal Tables
.... impossible, there is no other option. Use sorted tables and verything is fine!
17 Try to use FIELD SYMBOLS.
... what means try? Use ASSIGNING fieldsymbol in LOOPs, but use it in READs only for very wide tables (>1kB). Use it always for tables with tables in the workarea!
18 Try to avoid into Corresponding Fields of
... see 6) is wrong!
19 Avoid using Select Distinct, Use DELETE ADJACENT.
.... no, use it if required and if it can reduce the result set by a factor of 2 or more. Again, if table is buffered, then it MUST be avoided.

Transport of Abap Query

Hi,
Can anybody tel me how to transport Abap Query.

Hi,
ABAP/4 Query is a powerful tool to generate simple reports without any coding. ABAP/4 Query can generate the following 3 simple reports: Basic List: It is the simple reports. Statistics: Reports with statistical functions like Average, Percentages. Ranked Lists: For analytical reports. - For creating a ABAP/4 Query, programmer has to create user group and a functional group. Functional group can be created using with or without logical database table. Finally, assign user group to functional group. Finally, create a query on the functional group generated.
You can transport queries between systems in SQ02 (hit the lorry button) or run program RSAQR3TR.
You download the infosets, queries etc into a file and load them into whichever system you wish.

vineela.
