Data in table is huge so performance is reduced

Hi all,
I have a tables in the oracle database where the number of records in the table is huge ie 6 years of data,due to which when i generate the report the retrieval of data is slow.
How to increase the performance,so that the report can be generate fast.
Thanks in advance

Thank you for polluting TWO forums with the exact same request.
Please stick to the thread with answers in it.

  • How to extract data from table for huge volume

    Hi,
    I have around 200000 material doc number for which need to get material number from MSEG table but while using SE16 it gives dump , i have even tried breaking it into batches of 20000 records but still SAP gives dump on executing SE16 for MSEG. Please advise if there is any alternate way to get data from SE16 table for such a large volume.
    Note: In our system SE16N does not work, only SE16 is there for our SAP version.
    Thanks,
    Vihaan

    Hi Jurgen,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I am getting Dump when i enter more than 5000 records as input parameter in MSEG, if I put more than that then it gives dump as "ABAP runtime errors    SAPSQL_STMNT_TOO_LARGE ".
    I understand that I can extract data restrciting 5000 every time but I have around 250000 material docs so that means if we consider batches of 5000 I need to run the step more 50 times--> 50 excel files. I wanted to avoid that as that is going to take lots of my time.
    Any suggestion, please help.
    Also wanted to highlight that apart from Material Doc number I am entering Plant (8 plants) and Mvt type (14 mvt type) also as input parameter.

  • How to update a table with huge data

    Hi,
    I have a scenario where I need to update tables that are having huge data (each table is having more than 10,00000)
    I am writing this update in PLSQL block.
    Is there any way to improve the performance of this update statement? Please suggest...
    Thanks.

    execute immediate v_qry;
    end loop;Sorry to say so but this code is aweful!
    Well the only thing to make this even more slow would be to add a commit inside the loop.
    Some advices. But I'm not sure which one works in your case.
    The fastest way to update a million rows is: write a single update statement. On typical systems this should only run for like a couple of minutes.
    if you need to update several tables then write a single update for each table.
    If you have different values that need to be updated then find a way how to consider those different values in a single update or merge statement. Either by joining another table or by using some in-lists.
    e.g.
    update myTable
    set mycolumn = decode(mycolumn
                                     ,'oldValue1','newvalue1'
                                     ,'oldValue2','newvalue2'
                                     ,'oldValue3','newvalue3')
    where mycolumn in ('oldValue1','oldvalue2','oldvalue3'....);If you need to do this in pl/sql then
    1) use bind variables to avoid hard parsing the same statement again and again
    2) use bulk binding to avoid pl/sql context switches

  • Range partition the table ( containing huge data ) by month

    There ia a table with huge data ard 9GB.This needs to range patitioned by month
    to improve performance.
    Can any one suggest me the best option to implement partitioning in this.

    I have a lot of tables like this. My main tip is to never assign 'MAXVALUE' for your last partition, because it will give you major headaches when you need to add a partition for a future month.
    Here is an example of one of my tables. Lots of columns are omitted, but this is enough to illustrate the partitioning.
    CREATE TABLE "TSER"."TERM_DEPOSITS"
    ( "IDENTITY_CODE" NUMBER(10), "ID_NUMBER" NUMBER(25),
    "GL_ACCOUNT_ID" NUMBER(14) NOT NULL ,
    "ORG_UNIT_ID" NUMBER(14) NOT NULL ,
    "COMMON_COA_ID" NUMBER(14) NOT NULL ,
    "AS_OF_DATE" DATE,
    "ISO_CURRENCY_CD" VARCHAR2(15) DEFAULT 'USD' NOT NULL ,
    "IDENTITY_CODE_CHG" NUMBER(10)
    CONSTRAINT "TERM_DEPOSITS"
    PRIMARY KEY ("IDENTITY_CODE", "ID_NUMBER", "AS_OF_DATE") VALIDATE )

  • Internal table for huge data

    HI,
    I have to populate internal table with huge number of data.
    What type of internal is suitable for this?
    Regards,
    Ram

    Hi ram,
    As long as you do not have any complex read functionalities, or nested loops, it should be fine to use the normal internal table.

  • How to populate data in table control  .

    hi all,
    i put matnr no. in screen no. 103
    validation is done at that screen only.
    now when i want to modify dat record
    when i put matnr no. at screen 103
    so how i will get all  data of dat number to table control screen.

    Hi Darshan,
       Here is a detailed description of how to update data in table controll.
      Updating data in table control
    The ABAP language provides two mechanisms for loading the table control with data from the internal table and then storing the altered rows of the table control back to the internal table.
    Method 1: Read the internal table into the Table Control in the screenu2019s flow logic.  Used when the names of the Table Control fields are based on fields of the internal table.
    Method 2: Read the internal table into the Table Control in the module pool code. Used when the names of the Table Control fields are based on fields of the database table.
    Method 1 (table control fields = itab fields)
    In the flow logic we can read an internal table using the LOOP statement. Define the reference to the relevant able control by specifying WITH CONTROL <ctrl>
    Determine which table entry is to be read by specifying CURSOR <ctrl>-CURRENT_LINE.
    After the read operation the field contents are placed in the header line of the internal table. If the fields in the table control have the same name as the internal they will be filled automatically. Otherwise we need to write a module to transfer the internal table fields to the screen fields.
    We must reflect any changes the user makes to the fields of the table control in the internal table otherwise they will not appear when the screen is redisplayed after PBO processing, (eg, after the user presses Enter or scrolls) However, this processing should be performed only if changes have actually been made to the screen fields of the table control (hence the use of the ON REQUEST)
    PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
    LOOP AT ITAB_REG WITH CONTROL TCREG
    CURSOR TCREG-CURRENT_LINE.
    ENDLOOP.
    PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
    LOOP AT ITAB_REG.
    MODULE MODIFY_ITAB_REG.
    ENDLOOP.
    MODULE MODIFY_ITAB_REG INPUT.
    MODIFY ITAB_REG INDEX TCREG-CURRENT_LINE.
    ENDMODULE.
    Method 2 (table control fields = dict. fields)
    If using a LOOP statement without an internal table in the flow logic, we must read the data in a PBO module which is called each time the loop is processed.
    Since, in this case, the system cannot determine the number of internal table entries itself, we must use the EXIT FROM STEP-LOOP statement to ensure that no blank lines are displayed in the table control if there are no more corresponding entries in the internal table.
    PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
    LOOP WITH CONTROL TCREG.
    MODULE READ_ITAB_REG.
    ENDLOOP.

  • Open HUB ( SAP BW ) to SAP HANA through DB Connection data loading , Delete data from table option is not working Please help any one from this forum

    Issue:
    I have SAP BW system and SAP HANA System
    SAP BW to SAP HANA connecting through a DB Connection (named HANA)
    Whenever I created any Open Hub as Destination like DB Table with the help of DB Connection, table will be created at HANA Schema level ( L_F50800_D )
    Executed the Open Hub service without checking DELETING Data from table option
    Data loaded with 16 Records from BW to HANA same
    Second time again executed from BW to HANA now 32 records came ( it is going to append )
    Executed the Open Hub service with checking DELETING Data from table option
    Now am getting short Dump DBIF_RSQL_TABLE_KNOWN getting
    If checking in SAP BW system tio SAP BW system it is working fine ..
    will this option supports through DB Connection or not ?
    Please follow the attachemnet along with this discussion and help me to resolve how ?

    Santhosh Kumar

    Hi Ramanjaneyulu ,
    First of all thanks for the reply ,
    Here the issue is At OH level ( Definition Level - DESTINATION TAB and FIELD DEFINITION )
    in that there is check box i have selected already that is what my issue even though selected also
    not performing the deletion from target level .
    SAP BW - to SAP HANA via DBC connection
    1. first time from BW suppose 16 records - Dtp Executed -loaded up to HANA - 16 same
    2. second time again executed from BW - now hana side appaended means 16+16 = 32
    3. so that i used to select the check box at OH level like Deleting data from table
    4. Now excuted the DTP it throws an Short Dump - DBIF_RSQL_TABLE_KNOWN
    Now please tell me how to resolve this ? will this option is applicable for HANA mean to say like , deleting data from table option ...
    Thanks

  • Process Order tables and Production System Performance

    Hi All,
    What are the different tables of Process order? Also how do i know which table affects the system performance of Production system and to what extent if Change Logging is made active ?
    The issue is in our clients place we would like to set the Change Logging ( Records changes made for any transaction )  for Process orders and we would like to know to which tables change logging should be made active so that Production system performance is not affected.
    Please help me regarding this.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Neetha Avani.

    All the changes done in any transaction are saved in CDPOS table.
    when there is any report developed based on this table then the performance will be very slow.
    Tables used for process orders are
    AFKO            Order header data PP orders
    AFPO            Order item
    AFRU            Order Confirmations
    AFRUHR        Order Confirmations for HR
    AFRV             Confirmation pool
    AFVC             Operation within an order
    Hope the above helps.

    Hi,
    You shouldn't use DataAttributeInfo as it is an internal object, if I'm correct.
    Use IWDAttributeInfo instead of DataAttributeInfo and it should work
    (See also API doc of IWDNodeInfo.iterateAttributes() at http://help.sap.com/javadocs/nwce/ce711sp02/wdr/com.sap.wdr/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/progmodel/api/IWDNodeInfo.html#iterateAttributes())

  • How to delete data in table control

    Hi,
    I am doing module pool programming. After the user enters the data in table control after saving the data. if the user wants to  remove the line item the line item shd be removed from the screen and data base.
    Please Give me vaulable Suggestions
    Regards

    Hi,
    Screen 8002 (with table control) --> select records --> press delete button --> delete selected records
    Now you wan to delete those records selected by the user at runtime when DELETE button is clicked.
    Take another internal table and work area same as the initial internal table and work area used in screen 8002 which is to be used to delete the selected data.
    Take the names of the input/output fields as work_area-field_name and select column in table control as work_area-flag.
    Also take a flag field of size 1 datatype character as the last field in the internal table and work area while declaration.
    You must have passed a code in PBO of the screen for reading internal table into the table control.
    So it reads the internal table into the table control whenever you perform any action on use command.
    All you need to do is to write a code to modify the internal table form the table control while performing any user action.
    Remember to change the LINE SEL option in attributes of table control as MULTIPLE.
    At screen logic,
    PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
      MODULE status_8002. "for pf-status
      LOOP WITH CONTROL po_tab. "po_tab is table control
        MODULE pass_data. "to pass data into table control from internal table

    PROCESS AFTER INPUT.

          CLEAR WA_EKPO1.
          CLEAR WA_EKPO.
          REFRESH IT_EKPO1.
          LOOP AT IT_EKPO INTO WA_EKPO WHERE FLAG = 'X'.
            DATA : J TYPE I.
            CLEAR J.
            J = SY-TABIX. "assign index value if a record is selected

            ENDIF.
          ENDIF.
      ENDCASE.
    ENDMODULE.                 " DELETE  INPUT
    Now at PAI, you have delete records and these changes are reflected back to the internal table.
    Now when PBO is executed it will again read the initial internal table and will not show the deleted records.
    Hope this solves your problem.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Tarun Gambhir

  • How to Populate Internal table data to Table Control in a Report Program

    Dear All,
           How to Populate Internal table data to Table Control in a Report Program? It is a pure report program with out any Module pool coding involved, which is just used to display data. Till now it is being displayed in a report. Now the user wants the data to be displayed in a table control. Could someone tell me how to go about with this.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Joseph Reddy

    If you want to use a table control, you will need to create a screen.
    In your report....
    start-of-selection.
    perform get_data.  " Get all your data here
    call screen 100. " Now present to the user.
    Double click on the "100" in your call screen statement.  This will forward navigate you to the screen.  If you have not created it yet, it will ask you if you want to create it, say yes.  Go into screen painter or layout of the screen.  Use the table control wizard to help you along the process.  It will write the code for you.  Since it is an output only table control, it will be really easy with not a lot of code. 
    A better way to present the data to the user would be to give it in a ALV grid.  If you want to go that way, it is a lot easier.  Here is a sample of the ALV function module.  You don't even have to create a screen.
    report zrich_0004
           no standard page heading.

    data: fieldcat type slis_t_fieldcat_alv.

      perform get_data.
      perform write_report.

    form get_data.

  • Not Updating Customized Table when System having Performance Issue

    Hi,
    This is actually the same topic as "Not Updating Customized Table when System having Performance Issue" which is posted last December by Leonard Tan regarding the user exit EXIT_SAPLMBMB_001.
    Recently we changed the program function module z_mm_save_hide_qty to update task. However this causes more data not updated. Hence we put back the old version (without the update task).  But now it is not working as it used to be (e.g. version 1 - 10 records not updated, version 2 with update task - 20 records not updated, back to version 1 - 20 records not updated).
    I tried debugging the program, however whenever I debugged, there is nothing wrong and the data is updated correctly.
    Please advise if anyone has any idea why is this happening. Many thanks.
    Regards,
    Janet

    Hi Janet,
    you are right. This is a basic rule not to do any COMMIT or RFC calls in a user exit.
    Have a look at SAP note 92550. Here they say that exit EXIT_SAPLMBMB_001 is called in the update routine MB_POST_DOCUMENT. And this routine is already called in UPDATE TASK from  FUNCTION 'MB_UPDATE_TASKS' IN UPDATE TASK.
    SAP also tells us not to do any updates on SAP system tables like MBEW, MARD, MSEG.
    Before the exit is called, now they call 'MB_DOCUMENT_BADI' with methods MB_DOCUMENT_BEFORE_UPDATE and MB_DOCUMENT_UPDATE. Possibly you have more success implementing the BADI.
    I don't know your situation and goal so this is all I can tell you now.
    Good luck!
    Regards,
    Clemens
