Creation of a ztable

Hi,
what is the purpose of a ztable. when would we be pushed to create one. how do we create it like is it going to se11 enter a table name and create.
centrino

Hi Centrino,
Most of the tables in SAP are appliaction specific. Suppose you want a cross application table having data from FI, MM, SD in 1 table the you could design your own table. You might also create a ztable to fill your own data.
In BW context a ztable is created as a staging table on the R/3. It would contain data that is extracted from various other tables using function modules based on some logic. This table would then be used as a datasource for passing data to BW.

BAPI and Ztable COMMIT

Dear Experts
In a RFC, our codes are as follows:
     CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE'
     CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
     MODIFY Ztable FROM TABLE it_ztable.
     COMMIT WORK.
We wonder to know that how do we pack above actions into a LUW for the consistency of commit or rollback.

Hi Custodio de Oliveira
I have followed your suggestion and written sample codes to create sales order.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2'
    EXPORTING
      order_header_in    = lt_order_header
    TABLES
      return            = lt_return
      order_items_in    = lt_order_item
      order_partners    = lt_order_partner
      order_schedules_in = lt_order_schdl.
READ TABLE lt_return WITH KEY TYPE    = 'S'
                                ID      = 'V1'
                                NUMBER = '311'.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
    MODIFY ZT_PROG_MSG FROM TABLE lt_msg.
    IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
      CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
        EXPORTING
          WAIT = 'X'
        IMPORTING
          RETURN = lt_return2.
    ELSE.
      IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
        CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_ROLLBACK'.
      ENDIF.
    ENDIF.
ELSE.
    CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_ROLLBACK'.
ENDIF.
And I manually adjust duplication number range for causing an update error.
In debug mode, I check the return type in "lt_return", and then I can get 'S'.
However, after BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT, there is update error for sales order creation, but our Ztable（ZT_PROG_MSG）is still updated successfully. How can we assure consistency, if there is any system error making bapi commit failure?

Creation of function module for updating the ztable

Hi,
I am sending the requirement for ceation of function module for updating the ztable.
Requirement----
Table Updation rule (New record)
While creating a new record the calling function will export the following to the table handling function.
Table field     Probable Values
ZORDERNO------->     Sales Delivery no in case of sales orderShipment no in case of transfer order
UNAME----
>     User ID
ZORDTYPE----
>     SALEOR in case of sales orderTRANSF in case of transfer order
ZREFDOCNO----
>Sales Order no in case of sales orderPurchase Order no in case of transfer order
ZREFDOCNO1----
>Delivery no in case of transfer order
The table handling function will calculate the following fields
Table field     Probable Values
ZREQNO----
>Running serial number (incremented by 1 for each new record)
ZREQDAT     -
>System date
ZREQTIME----
>     System time
ZSTATUS----
>OPEN (for all new records)
Before inserting a new record the table handling function will always check if a previous record exists for the same order / shipment no. if record exists the function will not insert a new record.
Table Updation rule (Status Update)
While updating a record the calling function will export the following to the table handling function.
Table field     Probable Values
ZORDERNO----
>Sales order no in case of sales orderShipment no in case of transfer order
ZSTATUS----
>CANCEL if cancellation successfulERROR if cancellation not possible (order already processed)
The table handling function will calculate the following fields
Table field     Probable Values
ZSTATDAT----
>System date
ZSTATTIME----
>     System time

Do you have to create/update new record in Ztable through Function Module ?
or you need to write FM only for validation?
Any how, you need to create a Program with Input values for the fields of Ztable, and for rest of fields the Value can be calculated based on input as per your requirement.
Let me know clearly what exactly u need ?

Kiran

So i want to know how to delete this table from database completely,so that I can make its as a new & activate it,I have same table in PRD too,i need to make it with same name.
In se14 the table delete options are non-editable,so from where to delte it completly.
Please tell me how to do this?

Tcode creation for Ztable

Hi,
I got a requirement that to create a transaction ZAM0007_D for table zam007
a.Authorization object: S_TCODE with transaction ZAM0007_D
b.Use Query generated as program name
how can i add these requirements to the ztable .Please let me know

Hi,
Follow below steps.
1. Create the table maintanance generator for your table.
2. You need to create a "Parameter Transaction".
What this means is that you will have a transaction (let's call it "ZMAINT") which calls "SM30" and passes in your table name.
Go to transaction SE93 and enter your new transaction code. Enter in the Tcode description and choose "Transaction with Parameters" (it shouldbe the last radio button).
Enter in the default transaction "SM30" and tick the "Skip Initial Screen" check box. Hit Enter.
Now scroll to the bottom of the screen and you will see a Table Control where you will need to enter in the values to the SM30 selection screen.
Because you hit ENTER, the program will have loaded in the Selection Screen parameters into it's memory. Hit the drop down for "Name of Screen Field" and select "VIEWNAME" and then enter in your Z Table in the "Value" column.
Now go to the next line and hit the drop down and select "UPDATE" in the "Name of Screen Field". Enter in a "X" in the value column.

SOX complaince for ZTABLES creation

Dear All,
Is there any restriction on creating ZTables in SAP (not about naming conventions)
Does ZTABLES has to be created only to meet funcitonal perspective so that in complaince with SOX,,
is it true that ZTABLES should not be created for techncial purposes as they are not in line with SOX complaince
REason for coming up with these questions is my peers are finding fault in my program stating that I had created zTABLES for my techncial convneince and it should not be done
My requirement is
Actually I have to develop a Report which has to display 700 entries
like
Account num      descripton             amount
10000                   desc1                      100
145678                 desc2                      230
And so onu2026..
But in no particular sequence like ascending order 1u2014700 and in that particualr sequence no table is holding data
So in this case I have to fill a internal table itab
Like
Wa_itab-acountnum = 10000
Wa_itab-description = desc1
Wa_itab-amount = 100
Append wa_itab to itab.
Like this 700 times right.
So instead of writing 700 append statements what I have done is I uploaded them into ztable(through excel sheet
Hardly 5min job ) and used a Select query to fetch 700 entries from the ZTABLE
But my peers are objecting for creating a ztable, they say according to SOX u cannot create ztables only for   tech requirements ZTABLES should be created only if they have functional requirement and et all they are saying
So I want to know how far they are true

Absolutely rubbish. SAP has tables TVARV & TVARVC tables, please ask your colleagues what functional requirement do these tables serve?
I have seen many a projects in which they have custom tables for maintaining constants. Pure technical purpose.
Definitely creating tables eats into the valuable space of the database, but creating one table doesn't K.I.L.L anyone.

PS: I had worked on a project which was SOX complaint & nobody questioned us about the utility of a particular table as long as we had maintained proper authorization group in the TMG

Ztable creation

Hi
I have created a Z Table.
i have updated this table with few entries.
Now again i have created few more fields in this Table.
While activating, an error is pronpting ..
"table is not yet classified".
I have used SE14 to adjust the table and activated..
Still i am facing this error message.
What to do now..????

Hi,
- Goto se11.
- Then click on "Currency/Quantity Fields" tab. You can see the Reference table and Ref. field columns. You will notice that the currency field and quantity field is prompting for an entry.
Otherwise, can you give us more information of the error from the activation log ? Thanks.

Ztable creation & Query creation.

Hi,
Anyone please explain me what's the meaning for Z table.
In what way it differs from standard SAP table?What are the stpes for creating the table.If it contains the datas of 2 or 3 tables,Why shouldn't I create a query?
Under which situations I should create a query?and when to go for Z table?
Thanks in advance
Raj.S

Hi Dear,
Z table are those table which we create when we are not getting our company need fullfill from existing tables of SAP
eg. table having fiels of PAN no will not be there in SAP then you may need to create your own.
to create your new tabel try SE11-> give table mane -> press create -> if you have done SQL coding then you can work on it smoothly.
2) for customized reports requirement of ur users you need to work for own queries work with SQ01, SQ02,SQ03

Creation ztable

hai all,
my table name is zbatch.
contains 3 fields.
fields    dataelement
zbatch    charg
zmax      charg
zmin       charg
save   and check the syntax.
raise the errors like,
1)   field zbatch : structured type charg cannot be used in db table zbatch
2)   field zmax : structured type charg cannot be used in db table zbatch
3)    field zmin : structured type charg cannot be used in db table zbatch
4)   error in code generation for creating table zbatch in the db
5)   table zbatch(statements could not be generated).
please solve the errors

CHARG is a structure and you are trying todeclare a field of structure type and this is incorrect way. If you want CHARG structure just include it in your ZBATCH.
Give .INCLUDE as field name and give CHARG as dataelement... it will give all the fields copied into your table..

Dialogue program to create/modify entries of ztable

hi experts,
i want to create a ztable. After creating the ztable i want to create an dialogue program using that dialogue program i have to create/modify entries of that ztable using text box and push button options.
can anybody having sample coding pls send me.....
thanks in advance,
ravi

Hi Ravi ,
Instead creating the Dailog Program u can creat the Table Maintanance Generator (TMG). Here u will have all the option of creation, deleting , modifying the record.
In se11 main screen go to utilities:-> Table Maintanance Generator .
here u have to enteg the Function group name and screen NO. system wil generate the dialog program for u to maintan the data in that table. Then go to T-CODE SM30 give the same table name and click on maintanance push button and maintain ur entries the table.

Update ZTable from editable ALV

Hi All,
i'm calling a Function Module from within a Badi Class ( Workorder_Update) which uses an ALV to Add Comments in a Field of the ALV for Transportation to a ZTable. Therefore the ALV is set to editable.
The Problem is that if the User does not press 'enter' after she/he added the Comment, the value is not send back to the internal Table wich updates the ZTab. If the User presses 'enter' ONLY the Comment is transported but the remainder of the Fields are cleared.
