Data type length mismatch -urgent pls

In the following query i have done a comparision in where clause as follows

(char length = 90) (char length =10)
it says the error that required same same length.
how to solve this problem, help me pls, very urgent.

Hi Rajaram.
If the KDAUF has to match with the First 10 characters of OBJECTID then do like this..
select OBJECTCLAS
OBJECTID(10)
CHANGENR
TABNAME
TABKEY
FNAME
CHNGIND
VALUE_NEW
VALUE_OLD
from cdpos into corresponding fields of table ipos
for all entries in itab2
where tabname = 'VBAP' and
fname = 'ABGRU' and
OBJECTID(10) = itab2-kdauf.

TIPS(63) : LONG DATA TYPE의 LENGTH 구하기

제품 : PL/SQL
작성날짜 : 1999-04-15
TIPS(63) : LONG DATA TYPE의 LENGTH 구하기
=========================================
PURPOSE
다음은 function 을 적용할 수 없는 long data type 의 length 를
구하는 방법을 소개한다.
Explanation
Long DataType 에 대해 Length 를 구하려 하는 경우 다음과 같은 Error 가 발생한다.
SQL> create table TOY
2 (Toy_ID NUMBER, Description LONG);
Table created.
SQL> select LENGTH(Description) from TOY;
select LENGTH(Description) from TOY
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes
"Inconsistent DataTypes" Error 는 LONG DataType 으로 정의된 Column 에
Function 을 적용하였기 때문에 발생한다.
VARCHAR2 Type 을 사용하면 정상 처리할 수 있으나, Oracle7 에서는 VARCHAR2 는
2,000 Characters 만 저장할 수 있으며, Oracle8 에서는 4,000 Characters 이다.
Oracle8 에서는 Long Data 를 저장하기 위해 LOB DataType 을 사용할 수 있으며,
LONG Data Type 은 Oracle7/Oracle8 모두 Support 되므로 LONG Type 에 대해
Length 를 확인하는 방법을 알아본다.
Example
다음은 anonymous PL/SQL Block 을 통해 TOY Table 에서 LONG Column 의
Length 를 구하는 Script 이다.
1. Single Record 에 대한 예
$ vi len_long.sql
declare
length_var NUMBER;
cursor TOY_CURSOR is
select * from TO;
toy_val TOY_CURSOR%ROWTYPE;
begin
open TOY_CURSOR;
fetch TOY_CURSOR into toy_val;
length_var := LENGTH(toy_val.Description);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Length of Description: '||length_var);
close TOY_CURSOR;
end;
SQL> set serveroutput on
SQL> @len_long
Length of description : 21
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
2. Multiple Record 에 대해서는 cursor FOR Loop 를 사용한다.
$ vi len_long.sql
declare
length_var NUMBER;
cursor TOY_CURSOR is
select * from TOY;
toy_val TOY_CURSOR%ROWTYPE;
begin
for toy_val in TOY_CURSOR loop
length_var := LENGTH(toy_val.Description);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('ID: '||toy_val.Toy_ID);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Length of Description: '||length_var);
end loop;
end;
SQL> set serveroutput on
SQL> @len_long
ID: 1
Length of Description: 21
ID: 2
Length of Description: 27
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

Hi Frank,
I have the exact same scenario where I have huge data coming from DB and its a must that I provide pagination.
I tried implementing as per the document but the pagination is not working for me too.
Details of the scenario:
1. I have a session facade method which takes a searchCriteria (custom criteria) as the input parameter and returns a list of entities.
a)This is the first method that I call as a default method activity in my taskflow.
b)The result of this method is dragged and dropped as table in the jsff. (*which created a methodIterator in pageDef unlike the documentation which has accessorIterator*).
2. I declared 2 class level variables
a) List<Entity> result: which is set once the method in the (1) above is executed.
b) long size: which is also set from the method (1) above.
3. I defined getEntityAll(int index,int range) method which returns List<Entity> as per the index and range using the result (class level variable populated by method in 1)
4. I defined getEntityAllSize() method which returns the size (class level variable populated by method in 1).
5. I created the datacontrol on top of the session facade bean.
6. I made sure to change the DataControlHandler = "oracle.adf.model.adapter.bean.DataFilterHandler"
7. I've set the rangeSize = 25 in my pagedef.
Now when I run my page, my default method activity calls the method in (1) above and populates the table, with a scroll bar.
Once I start scrolling, it calls my method in (1) but it does not call either of the methods (getEntityAll(int index,int range) & getEntityAllSize()) which adds the pagination behavior.
After this, my table has just 25 rows and further scrolling does not invoke any of the methods from the session bean.
I'm using jdev : JDEVADF_11.1.1.4.0_GENERIC_101227.1736.5923 (11.1.1.4.0).
Please let me know if I am missing anything.
Thanks in advance!

Change characterestic data type Length

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me, how i can change the caracterestic data type length. My characterestic got saved and activated. i can delete and recreate, but i would like to check whether there is any other way.
Regards,
Suresh Patipati.

Hi,
Unfortunately, a characteristic can be created with a maximum length of 18 characters. The only workaround would be to create an user-defined characteristic of length CHAR18, and then fill it with the first 18 positions of the source field by derivation.

Waman

Data Type Length --- Urgent

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how bits/bytes is one character... Is there any function module to find out the length of a character / string / any other data types in terms of bits/bytes???
Regards
Jiku

Hi Jiku,
length of a character depends on your system settings, if the system is running on UniCode (2 Byte) or Non UniCode (1 Byte).
Length of a string: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/fc/eb33d9358411d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
Length of other data type look into DESCRIBE syntax.
Best regards,

Data type & length in SAP side!!

Hi all,
i am working in a R/3 -legacy scenario.
In R/3 side there exist one table called YMD_ARTICLE...
now i have to make data type based on the 7 fields of that table YMD_ARTICLE..
and I have given the field name + type(vachar,timestamp,smaal int..etc..)+filed length....in the data type template...
Now my question is...wat should i give in type ...for the field...
i min can i use "xsd:string" for every field..... irespective of what given in the template....
Do we need to declare the lenght,type...for fileds of a DATA TYPE in XI...
if the DATA type is already there in the R/3 side.....
Can any one explain me......
thanks....

hi,
>>> i min can i use "xsd:string" for every field..... irespective of what given in the template....
string can be used to handle other datatypes as well...but try using the same data type as in R/3...
when u know e.g the value can only be integer then use data type integer... this will also not allow values other than integer to pass...
hope it helps,
regards,
latika.

Key Figure data type/length differs in BI and source system

Hi all.
It is a strange question, but we need an explanation to our "strange" client. Why many fields which are DEC 13 in source system became CURR 09 in BI? DEC->CURR type switch seems reasonable, but not the length. I guess the shorter numeric field is the less precise it can keep...
Does SAP give any explanation for that?

Hi,
     If you are expecting the data to be aggregated in the cube and if the data is loaded by different requests, then in that case the data wouldnot be aggregated.
EX: CHAR1   CHAR2    CHAR3   CHAR4     CHAR5    CHAR6    CHAR7    KF1   KF2   KF3
         A               B              C            D        E              F             G          10     20    30
          A               B              C            D        E              F             G          10     20    30
sUPPOSE IF THE ABOVE 2 ROWS OF DATA ARE GETTING LOADED IN THE SAME REQUEST, then you can expect the data to be aggregated and the o/p of the KFs will be 20, 40 and 60 respectively.
In case the loading is done with separate requests, then your data will not be aggregated.
This is becuse in the cube, Request ID (under the Data Package Dimension)    is one of the dimension and this differs when the requests are different.

Short Dump when loading data (Runtime Error ITAB_DUPLICATE_KEY) Urgent Pls

Dear Guru
We are loading data into (2 ODS and ! Cube) from one Infopkg.
When i do delta update it throws following error
(for one ODS it is green) and for another ODS and CUBE it is red.
Runtime Error          ITAB_DUPLICATE_KEY
What happened?
Error in ABAP application program.
The current ABAP program "GP229LMXTFYDS5X6UC3ND03NIV2" had to be terminated
because one of the
statements could not be executed.
Please suggest me some solution, i am with client..its a serious issue now.
Hope you understand
Thanks in Adv
Dev

hi,
hope if you retrigger the load it would be successful.
force the request status to red and delete from the all target and retrigger the load.
else chk if in the detail tab u could find the data upto PSa. if so delete the red request alone and pull the records to tohose records from PSA.

I use the where clause on several other pages and it works. I don't understand where my data type is mismatched.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

4) If you indeed need to select from the 3 tables Users,
Orders, ProductOrders, then you should qualify the columns
names like this, Users.ID, productOrders.Quantity, and so
on.
You also need to join on the related columns. If you forget to do that the resultset will be a massive cartesian table (huge number of records):
rows in Table1 * #rows in Table2 * #rows in Table3

How to save blob data (variable length string) in a customized table?

Dear Friends
I have written a very simple program to update table with 2 fields which
looks as follows.
========================================================
Table name ZTESTBLOBDATA
Field         Key          Init    Data Element   Data Type Length
ID          Checked                 ZID                 NUMC        2
BLOB                                   ZBLOB           STRING       0
=========================================================
FOllowing is the sample program that I have written (Transaction SE38).
=========================================================
REPORT ZTESTBLOBPROG
TABLES: ZTESTBLOBDATA
data : itab like ZTESTBLOPDATA occurs 1 with header line.
select * from ztestblobdata into table itab.
ztestblobdata-id =   sy-dbcnt +1.
ztestblobdata -blob = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz.'.
insert ztestblobdata.
=========================================================
When I try to save and activate the program, I get the following
error message
'ztestblopdata' must be a flat structure. You cannot use internal
tables, strings, references, or structures as components.
==========================================================
Using the data type STRING is a must since it is a variable length
data which varies from few characters to few gig.
How can go around this problem.
Any feedback will be highly appreciated.
PS. I have checked old postings on SDN, spoken to my ABAP contacts and also couple of instructors from SAP when I took XI courses but didn't get a satisfactory answers.
Edited by: Ram Prasad on Oct 15, 2008 12:28 PM

Thanks a lot for the response.
The string that we are getting is from another application via netweaver XI integration and is being sent as a string which has to be saved in an SAP table. I am not sure if IDOC option will suit our needs, but will definitely read more about it.
If there is any other suggestion of feedback I would appreciate it a lot.;

Data type could be same base on source table for blank column

We have an employee table as mentioned structure.
EMPNO NUMBER(4),
ENAME VARCHAR2(10),
JOB VARCHAR2(9),
MGR NUMBER(4),
HIREDATE DATE,
SAL NUMBER(7,2),
COMM NUMBER(7,2),
DEPTNO NUMBER(2)
I want to create a view base on the same/exact structure data type-length. So is there any way we can define Data type while creating view.
Actually, I need to create a view base on above structure but only want to get deptno and sum of salary column from emp table and rest of column will remain blank.
Thanks

Something like this???
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW v_tmp AS
     SELECT NULL empno,
            NULL ename,
            NULL job,
            NULL mgr,
            NULL hiredate,
            sal sal,
            dept_no
       FROM employees
   GROUP BY dept_no;
   Cheers,
Manik.

Checking table columns and data type before inserting

I have some data coming from different sources and want to insert the data from those files into multiple tables.
Before inserting the data I like to perform a check on data type, length, null etc so that I can avoid errors at the time of insert. If there is any problem with the data then I do not want to perform the insert and report the problems.
Thanks

If you have 10gR2 (10.2.0.4) you could use DML_ERROR_LOGGING.
Read about it here, see the examples: http://tkyte.blogspot.com/2005/07/how-cool-is-this.html
In short: it avoids errors during your transactions, afterwards you know which records failed and why.
It's more or less the same functionality:
your goal:
check before transactions and avoid the insert of 'bad' records. (extra code, extra maintenance, more chance of bugs)
dml_err_logging:
insert 'bad' records during transaction automatically into a dedicated error table including error message.

Help its really urgent.....Data type mismatch in criteria expression.

hello everyone....
I m trying to retrive an int value from Access database with query
String query = "SELECT * FROM M_PROCESS WHERE PROCESS_NAME = '"+selected_process+"' ";
Here selected_process is the string retrived from a JSP page using request.getparameter and it may retrive value with multiple spaces in it.
i m able to retrive selected_process correctlly but when i call another servlet method to execute query with statement
ResultSet rs = dbcon.execQuery(query);
I get an error
Error in connection in execution[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Data type mismatch in criteria expression.
can anyone help.....
note: the datatype of PROCESS_NAME is TEXT . dbcon is the object of servlet connection manager which is responsible for connection establishment and query execution.

Hi Nix,
If its an Interger value use "+xxxx+" if string then use ' " ++"'
or else try to convert the string value to interger...
it will work
