Creating LOV from 2 different tables

I tried doing some searches on this, but haven't been able to find an answer. Can I create an LOV (to populate a select list) from two different tables? Both tables have the exact same column names/datatypes, just different data.
Or if this isn't possible, should I just create a new table, and then do a union query to populate it with the values from both of these tables? Just wondering if anyone's had experience with this situation. Thanks!

Hmm. That is weird. Wonder why it's not working for me.
The SORT_ORDER column appears in both tables. I was hoping to be able to sort by the number value that appears in this column in both tables (could duplicate values in this table be causing an issue?).
I even tried changing it to:
SELECT DISPLAY_AS d1, CONTENT_KEY v1
FROM SER_LISTS_JOB_TYPE
WHERE ACTIVE = 'YES'
UNION
SELECT DISPLAY_AS d2, CONTENT_KEY v2
FROM SER_LISTS_COMPANY_TYPE
WHERE ACTIVE = 'YES'
ORDER BY SORT_ORDERBut still get the same error message.

OK. It appears the ORDER BY SORT_ORDER was causing the issue. I took it out and it worked. The only problem is that I have 1 duplicate entry, called "Other" that now appears twice in my LOV. Any thoughts on this? The value of CONTENT_KEY is different, but the value for DISPLAY_AS is the same. Is there anyway to pull out one of these?

Report using Data from different tables

Hello,
I am trying to convert a Cobol batch program to Oracle 6i tabular report.
The data is fetched from many different tables and there are lots of processing(i.e, based on the value of a column from one table need additional processing from different tables) required to generate the desired columns in the final report.
I would like to know what is the best strategy to follow in Oracle Reports 6i. I heard that CREATE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE is an option. ( or REF CURSOR ?) I do not know much about its usage. Can somebody guide me about this or any other better way to achieve the result.
Thank you in advance
Priya

Hello,
There are many, many options available to you, each of which has advantages and disadvantages. This is why it is difficult to answer "what is best?" without alot more details about your specific circumstances.
In general, you're going to be writing PL/SQL to do any conditional logic that cannot be expressed as pure SQL. It can executed in the database, or it can executed within Reports itself. And most reports developers do some of both.
As a general rule, you want to send only the data you need from the database to the report. This means you want to do as much filtering and aggregating of the data as is readily possible within the database. If this cannot be expressed as plain SQL queries, then you'll want to create a stored procedures to help do this work.
Generally, the PL/SQL you create for executing within the report should be focused on control of the formatting, such as controlling whether a field is visible, or controlling display attributes for conditional formatting.
But these are not hard and fast rules. In some cases, it is difficult to get all the stored procedures you might like installed into the database. Perhaps the dba is reluctant to let you install that many stored procedures. Perhaps there are restrictions when and how often updates can be made to stored procedures in a production database, which makes it difficult to incrementally adjust your reports based on user feedback. Or perhaps there are restrictions for how long queries are allowed to run.
So, Reports offers lots of options and features to let you do data manipulation operations from within the report data model.
In any case, Oracle does offer temporary table capabilities. You can populate a temp table by running stored procedures that do queries, calculations and aggregations. And you can define and initiate a dynamic query statement within the database and pass a handle to this query off to the report to execute (ref cursor).
From the reports side, you can have as many queries as you want in the data model, arranged in any hierarchy via links. You can parameterize and change the queries dynamically using bind variables and lexicals. And you can add calculations, aggregations, and filters.
Again, most people do data manipulation both in the database and in Reports, using the database for what it excels at, and Reports for what it excels at.
Hope this helps.

Retrieving Data from different Tables with same tuple name

Hi,
I am made the following query from different tables. A tuple "name" is appearing in some tables. So when I run the qiery in a Java class, it delivers the same result of c.name, bpl.name and p.name. The result of c.name is correct, but the other 2 names are overwritten. It works perfect in a postgreSql query tool. How can I correct it, plz?
SELECT c.ad_client_id, c.name, o.c_order_id, o.ref_order_id, bp.name, bpl.name, o.dateordered, o.datepromised, od.c_orderline_id,p.m_product_id,p.name, cur.iso_code, od.qtyordered

WHERE c.ad_client_id =11 and c.ad_client_id = o.ad_client_id and bp.c_bpartner_id=o.c_bpartner_id and o.c_order_id = od.c_order_id and od.m_product_id = p.m_product_id and o.c_bpartner_location_id =bpl.c_bpartner_location_id and o.c_currency_id=cur.c_currency_id;
Cheers

Hi,
create alias, if u have similar field names as below. Use the alias name (rs.getString("cname") and rs.getString("bpname") and so on ) to retrive data.
SELECT c.ad_client_id, c.name as cname, o.c_order_id, o.ref_order_id, bp.name as bpname, bpl.name as bplname, o.dateordered, o.datepromised, od.c_orderline_id,p.m_product_id,p.name as pname, cur.iso_code, od.qtyordered

Fetch data from different tables print them is assigned places

Hi Friends,
I have designed one SMART-Form (Receipt).
I need to fetch data from different tables and the data must be print in assigned places. Please help me how to achieve this requirement. Thanks for your help.
Best regards,
Manju.
Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Feb 12, 2008 10:20 AM

U're right.
When it creates a smartform it needs to decide when the main data have to be extracted:
- or in driver program
- or in smartforms
The difference can be in the performance, because the program can select the data only once, the smartforms needs to extract them everytime it's called.
I prefer to use a complex structure for the smartform interface as so all data I need are in only one structure, the problem is the complex structure is harder to be managed.

How to get only column names from different tables as single table columns

Hi All,
I have one requirement in which we want only column names from different tables.
for example :
I have three tables T1 ,T2, T3 having
col1 clo2 clo3 --> T1 ,
col3 col5 ,clo6 --> T2 ,
Clo6 col8 col9 --> T3
columns i want to get only all Column names from all table as single Resultset not any data from that how can i get that empty resultset
because this empty result i want to bind in datagridview(front end) as Empty resultset
Please tell me anyways to do this
Niraj Sevalkar

If I understand you want an empty result set, just with metadata. SET FMTONLY do the trick:
SET FMTONLY ON
SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3, ....., Coln
FROM
T1 CROSS JOIN T2 CROSS JOIN T3
SET FMTONLY OFF
Another alternative is to include an imposible contition
SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3, ....., Coln
FROM
T1 CROSS JOIN T2 CROSS JOIN T3
WHERE 1 = 0
If you are using a SqlDataAdapter in your client application. You can use the FillSchema method. the select command may be any select statement that returns the columns you want. Under the covers FillSchema will call SET FMTONLY ON.
If you are using SqlCommand.ExecuteReader you can pass SchemaOnly to CommandBehavior argument. SET FMTONLY ON is called under the covers. Again the select command may be any select statement that returns the columns you want.

How to display multiple data from different table in one table? please help

Hi
I got sun java studio creator 2(the separate installation not the one in the net beans)....
My question is about displaying data that have been taken from the database.... I know how to display data in a table(just click on the table "bind data" )... but my question is that:
when i want to use a sql statement that taken the data from different table...
how can i display that data in the table(that will be shown in the web) ??? when i click bind data on the table i can only select one table i can't select more than one....
Note:
1) i'm using the rowset for displaying the data in the table, since the sql statement is depending on a condition(i.e. select a from b where c= ? )...
2) i mean by different table is that( i.e. select a from table1,table2 )..
thanks in advance...

I want display the details of emp table.. for that I am using this SQL statement.
select * from emp where mgr=nvl(:mgr,mgr);
when I give the input as 7698 it is displaying the corresponding records... and also when I won't give any input then it is displaying all the records except the mgr with null values.
1)I want to display all the records when I won't give any input including nulls
2)I want to display all the records who's mgr is null
Is there any way to incorporate to include all these in a single query..It's a little unclear what you're asking.
The following query always includes rows where mgr is NULL, and when the bind variable :mgr is NULL, it displays all rows:
SELECT *
FROM     emp
WHERE     LNNVL (mgr != :mgr)
;That is, when :mgr = 7698, it displays 6 rows, and when :mgr is NULL it displays 14 rows (assuming you're using the Oracle-supplied scott.emp table).
The following query includes rows where mgr is NULL only when the bind variable :mgr is NULL, in which case it displays all rows:
SELECT     *
FROM     emp
WHERE     :mgr     = mgr
OR      :mgr      IS NULL
;When :mgr = 7698, this displays 5 rows, and when :mgr is NULL it displays 14 rows.
The following query includes rows where mgr is NULL only when the bind variab;e :mgr is NULL, in which case it displays only the rows where mgr is NULL. That is, it treats NULL as a value:
SELECT     *
FROM     emp
WHERE     DECODE ( mgr
            , :mgr, 'OK'
            )     = 'OK'
;When :mgr = 7698, this displays 5 rows, and when :mgr is NULL, it displays 1 row.

How to do a SELECT from different tables into an internal table?

How to do a SELECT from different tables into an internal table?
I want to select data from MARA, MARC and ZPERSON and populate my ITAB_FINAL
REPORT zinternal_table.
TABLES:
mara,
marc,
zperson.
TYPES:
BEGIN OF str_table1,
v_name LIKE zperson-zname,
v_matnr LIKE marc-matnr,
v_emarc LIKE marc-emarc,
v_werks_d LIKE marc-werks_d,
v_dstat LIKE marc-dstat,
END OF str_table,
i_table1 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF str_table1.
DATA:
BEGIN OF str_table2,
v_mandt LIKE mara-mandt,
v_ernam LIKE mara-ernam,
v_laeda LIKE mara-laeda,
END OF str_table2,
itab_final LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF str_table2.

first find the link between mara , marc and zperson , if u have link to 3 tables then u can jus write a join and populate the table u want ( thats final table with all the fields).
u defenitely have alink between mara and marc so join them and retrieve all data into one internal table.
then for all the entries in that internal table retrieve data from zperson into another internal table.
then loop at one internal table
read another internal table where key equals in both the tables.
finally assign fileds if sy-subrc = 0.
gs_finaltable-matnr = gs_table-matnr
etc...
and finally append gs_finaltable to gt_finaltable.
there u go ur final table has all the data u want.

Retriving of data from different tables

retriving of data from different tables depening of the primary key this key field is there in all tables if it is there in one v table it should continue to other tables otherwise it should get exit from that it should display information message or otherwise success message if it is there in all tables .

Im writing the concept, just check it.
SELECT * from kna1 into lt_kna1.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
selest * from lfa1 into lt_lfa1
for all entries in lt_kna1.
endif.

TEXT ITEM from different table

When a TEXT ITEM from different table exists in the DATA BLOCK,
and when after EXECUTE_QUERY (in trigger POST_QUERY) we issue
the SELECT for filling the TEXT ITEM from different table, how
we can prevent FROM_STATUS and RECORD_STATUS to get the
value "CHANGED" (because othervise COMMIT is updating all the
records which are the result of EXECUTE_QUERY)?

Set the record status back to query in Post Query trigger:
SET_RECORD_PROPERTY(:SYSTEM.TRIGGER_RECORD, 'BLOCK_NAME', STATUS
, QUERY_STATUS);

Field selection from differant tables

hello all,
         i need to select differant fields from differant tables when i select common fields from both the tables, is it necessary that the common field need to be a primary key in both tables.
thanks in advance
seenu

HI,
    No its not required that the common field be part of the primary key in both tables only thing is you need to prefix the table name if the field names are same. But if you are using a INNER JOIN then there is no need to select both fields since you know the content of both fields will be same if JOIN is ON these fileds as well.

Create LOV from OID entries

I do not know how to build a LOV from the available list of user ids in Internet Directory. My intention is to use the Internet Directory as my "system of record" for Personnel and reference the User ID in records in the database. Is there a way to build a materialized view for this? or is there some other mechanism you can point me to?
I am building a slew of data capture forms of which I would like to enter the userid of the logged in user. I know how to use wwctx_api.get_user_id however my user may want to override their name with someone else.
Ergo, my need for an LOV.

I had the same problem
not sure about going to the tables direct, a little messy
have a look a d the OID developers guide there is an example of querying the OID using DBMS_LDAP

Problem in identifying unique records from different tables

Hello gurus,
I am on E-Recruitment module.
I order to get more fields in CANDIDATE_ATTR datasource I have enhanced it. I am getting additional fields from HRP5103 (Employer, Employment Start Date & Employment End Date) & from HRP5104 (Institute, City, Region). In both of the tables there are 9 primary keys out of which only two are different through which we can identify duplicate records i.e. OBJID (denote Candidate ID in both tables) & SEQNR(Number of Infotype Record with Same Key).
I know that compounding InfoObjects (since i need to pull duplicate records from table as one candidate can have many institute & employer but they will always be referred by same OBJID) is one of the way but how to manage data through compounding coming from 2 tables.
Also i donot want to create new objects as it will effect whole of the setup.
Is there any other way.
Can anyone give idea as to how to get records in BW.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Sundar,
Thanks for your help. I wen tthrough the two discussions and found the following:
1. I cannot include the primary/unique keys in the selection as it would make everything distinct. This restricts me from pointing me to the exact record that has changed.
2. The columns would be dynamic. I want a config kind of solution where i can define the tables, columns on both the sides. And add/remove compare fields in the setup tables.
Thanks,
Faruq.

How to dynamically copy cells from different tables?

Hi,
I've created an invoice and have 2 different tables. First is at top with Recipient information, the invoice number, their address, etc. Below that, I have a 2nd table laying out the items they are being charged for.
I would like to copy the invoice number from the 1st table, to a cell in the 2nd table or a 3rd table I will create later on. I know how to copy cells in 1 table, ie. =D4. But not sure how to target a different table altogether.
Also, is it possible to copy a cell from 1 table to a text box field?
Thanks!!

Yvan's point is true. Please use the User Guides first; they're actually pretty readable.
However, there's a very quick & easy way to try it out as well. Go to the cell where you want your data to end up. Type "=" (without quotes) to indicate you're going to input a formula of some kind. Then without clicking inside any tables, use the list of sheets and tables to the left to get to your source table and click on the cell that contains the data you want to copy. Presto! Go back to your destination cell, and the formula is now filled in, following the scheme Yvan provided.

Retrieving data from different tables in the same time crash

Hi
this is probably the wrong way to do it, but this is how I did:
- I wanted a screen with 3 datagrids components retrieving data from 3 different tables.
- I could make it work while enabling 1 or 2 of them. When the 3 are enabled, I get this error:
btw its a huge msg, I will trim it:
ArgumentError: Can't find ManagedQuery or ManagedOperation named: getItems_paged at mx.data::RPCDataServiceAdapter/executeQuery()[C:\depot\DataServices\branches\lcds_modeler 101\frameworks\projects\data\src\mx\data\RPCDataServiceAdapter.as:325] at mx.data::RPCDataServiceAdapter/processDataMessage()[C:\depot\DataServices\branches\lcds_m odeler101\frameworks\projects\data\src\mx\data\RPCDataServiceAdapter.as:920] at RPCDataServiceRequest/invoke()[C:\depot\DataServices\branches\lcds_modeler101\frameworks\ projects\data\src\mx\data\RPCDataServiceAdapter.as:1668] at mx.data::DataStore/http://www.adobe.com/2006/flex/mx/internal::invoke()[C:\depot\DataServices\branches\lcds_m odeler101\frameworks\projects\data\src\mx\data\DataStore.as:3343] ... it continues forever.
the getItems_paged is a auto generated function inside the php class flex generates to handle the tables.
Each of the datagrid is a custom component. I made so to avoid keeping a bunch of code lines in the main 'page'.
Any suggestion to make it work smoothly?
Thanks in advance,
