Deleting from Internal table.....

Hi All,
I have two internal tables with same structure like: IT_REC_LIST and IT_REC_LIST_DEL.
I have 10 records in this internal table: IT_REC_LIST and same 5 records in this internal table: IT_REC_LIST_DEL. I dont have any key fields.
So I want to delete those 5 records from IT_REC_LIST. Could you please let me know hw to write the code, when I write like below its going for dump.
DELETE IT_REC_LIST [] FROM IT_REC_LIST_DEL [].
Akhitha.

Hello,
You can do like :
loop at IT_REC_LIST .
read table IT_REC_LIST_del with key field1 = IT_REC_LIST-field1.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
delete IT_REC_LIST.
endif.
endloop.

Delete from internal table

Hi,
I want to delete from internal table some regords.
I write code:
delete isrot where bldat < '01.09.2005'.
it doesn't work, what is wrong?
regards,
Joanna

hi,
you write the statement like....
<b>delete FROM isrot where bldat < '01.09.2005'.</b>
now it will work...
To select the lines that you want to delete using a condition, use the following:
<b>DELETE FROM <target> WHERE <cond> .</b>
All of the lines in the database table that satisfy the conditions in the WHERE clause are deleted. The FROM expression must occur between the keyword and the database table.
You should take particular care when programming the WHERE clause to ensure that you do not delete the wrong lines. For example, if you specify an empty internal table in a dynamic WHERE clause, all of the lines in the table are deleted.
If at least one line is deleted, the system sets SY-SUBRC to 0, otherwise to 4. SY-DBCNT contains the number of lines deleted.
follow this link for more information on internal table operation.

Deletion from internal table

Hi,
My requirement is that I have to delete the duplicate values before doing any manupilation of data.. so for this I have written the code...
*Deleting all the duplicate entries comparing group code, GL *& GL Suffix
IT_INPUT_TEMP[] = IT_INPUT[].
SORT IT_INPUT_TEMP BY GRCODE GL GLSUF.
DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES
         FROM IT_INPUT_TEMP COMPARING GRCODE GL GLSUF.
Now with the remaining values in the internal table I have to check the 3rd field i.e. GLSUF & if it = '00000' (5 zeros)... i have to delete those entries...
For this I have written...
Deleting enteries where the GL Suffix is zero.
IF IT_INPUT_TEMP-GLSUF = 00000.
    DELETE IT_INPUT_TEMP.
ENDIF.
It gives me a dump saying "Invalid_Table_Index"...
Prior to this I have also checked up by using Index function.
Deleting enteries where the GL Suffix is zero.
IF IT_INPUT_TEMP-GLSUF = 00000.
    DELETE IT_INPUT_TEMP index l_tabix.
ENDIF.
Can anyone tell me where I am wrong??..
Thank You & Regards,
-S.

Hi S,
Your code extract
* Deleting enteries where the GL Suffix is zero.
IF IT_INPUT_TEMP-GLSUF = 00000.
DELETE IT_INPUT_TEMP.
ENDIF.
Either this should be in a loop(which is unnecessary if all you are trying to achieve is deleting records), or you can try the option with 'WHERE' clause as mentioned in the above post.
DELETE FROM IT_INPUT_TEMP WHERE GLSUF = '00000'.

Deleting from Internal Table (dynamic)

Hi,
I have an Internal table, which will contain daily movements for plants per material.
The internal table will contain 4 plants per material, with more than 1 material.
Now, i have four columns. If all of those columns for that material and for all plants for that material equal zero, i want to delete the specific record.
For example
Material     Plant      Daily 1 Daily 2 Daily 3 Daily 4
102            1           0          0           0          0
102            2           0          0           0          0
102            3           0          0           0          0
102            4           0          0           0          0
So, these 4 records should be deleted. However, say on of the daily columns will equal 1, then keep the 4 records (they are linked by material and plant.)
How do I do this?
Points will be rewarded and all help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John

Check this.

        daily3 TYPE i,
        daily4 TYPE i.
DATA: END OF itab.
DATA: itab_per_matnr LIKE itab OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE,
      wa_itab        LIKE itab.
itab_per_matnr[] = itab[].
LOOP AT itab INTO wa_itab.
*-- check if there is at least one non-zero record for this material
LOOP AT itab_per_matnr WHERE matnr = wa_itab-matnr
                           AND ( daily1 > 0 OR
                                 daily2 > 0 OR
                                 daily3 > 0 OR
                                 daily4 > 0 ).
    EXIT
ENDLOOP.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    DELETE itab WHERE matnr = wa_itab-matnr.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.

To get recent timestamp records from internal table

hi all,
i have one requirment
i'm storing error messages in one table while creating a sales order basing on timestamp
which is of this format yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss (random Number)
if i want to see the error messages left i'm getting all the error messages displayed
for example i have created a sales order
i got 10 errors displayed
i have rectified 5 errors ... if i again display error messages the 10 errors + the 5 errors is getting displayed
i want to display the 5 error messages only not the previous messages from internal table
basing on timestamp current one has to displayed remaining has to deleted from internal table.

I thought we used Sales Order Incompletion process for this.... but, if you're recreating the errors list every time you save with a create or change transaction then, at save, delete all rows in your error table for this document. Then get your errors and update your db table from your current errors table. From this viewpoint, the timestamp is not relevant.

Deleting entry from internal table

Hi Experts,
i have the following internal table:
data : it_result1 TYPE crmt_object_guid_tab
and work area
data : wa_result1 type crmt_object_guid.
i have to delete a guid from internal table based on some condition.
loop at it_resul1 into wa_result1
if lv_priority eq priority.
delete this entry from internal table.
endif.
endloop..
i tried using delete table it_result with table key CRMT_OBJECT_GUID = wa_result. but this is giving syntax error.
what should be done to delete the entry?
Thanks and regards
Shilpi

Hi
Check Syntax for DELETE operator on pressing F1
1. DELETE itab.
2. DELETE TABLE itab WITH TABLE KEY k1 = v1 ... kn = vn.
3. DELETE TABLE itab [FROM wa].
4. DELETE itab INDEX idx.
5. DELETE itab FROM idx1 TO idx2.
6. DELETE itab WHERE logexp.
7. DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM itab.
delete table it_result with table key CRMT_OBJECT_GUID = wa_result
this is wrong
delete it_result where CRMT_OBJECT_GUID = wa_result

To delete duplicate records from internal table

hi friends,
i have to delete records from internal table based on following criterion.
total fields are 7.
out of which if 4 fields are same and 5th field is different,then both records must be deleted.
in case all five fields are same,the program should do nothing.
for example.
if there are 3 records as follows
a1 b1 c1 d1 e1 f g
a1 b1 c1 d1 e2 w r
a1 b1 c1 d1 e1 j l
then first two records should be deleted as four fields are same but fifth(e) field differs.
but third record should remain as it is evenif first five fields are same for first and third record.
values of last two fields need not to be consider for deleting the records.

LOOP AT ITAB.
V_FILED5 = ITAB-F5. "to compare later
V_TABIX = SY-TABIX. "used to delete if condition not matches
READ TABLE ITAB WITH KEY F1 = ITAB-F1
                           F2 = ITAB-F2
                           F3 = ITAB-F3
                           F4 = ITAB-F4.
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
    IF ITAB-F5 <> V_FIELD5.
*--both the records to be deleted,as Field5 is different.
      DELETE ITAB INDEX SY-TABIX. "deletes that record
      DELETE ITAB INDEX V_TABIX. "deletes the current record
    ENDIF.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.

Update databse from internal table statement not using index

Hi Guys,
We are updating a databse table from a file. The file has a couple of fields which have data different from what the database has (non-primary fields :). We upload the file data into an internal table and then update the database table from internal table. At a time, internal table is supposed to have 10,000 records. I did SQL trace and found that the update statement is not making use of the databse index.
Should not the update statement here be using the table index (for primary key)?
Regards,
Munish

... as often there are recommendations in this forum which makes me wonder, how people overestimate their knowledge!!!
Updates and Deletes do of course use indexes, as can be seen in the SQL Trace (use explain).
Inserts don't use indexes, because in many databases inserts are just done somewhere, But also with the INSERT, the primary key is the constraint for the uniqueness condition, duplicate keys are not allowed.
Coming to the original question, what is you actually coding for the update?
What is the table, which fields are in the internal table and what are the indexes?

Can not insert or update [TABLE] from internal table in method

I've faced a problem with OO abap. I've tried to insert into [ TABLE ] from internal table, but i've got error msg after i compiled.

Hi Matthew,
I think there is no difference in database insert between OO and non-OO.
The correct syntax according to ECC600 online documentation is
[Inserting Several Lines|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/fc/eb3a6d358411d1829f0000e829fbfe/content.htm]
To insert several lines into a database table, use the following:
INSERT target FROM TABLE itab \[ACCEPTING DUPLICATE KEYS].
This writes all lines of the internal table itabto the database table in one single operation. If one or more lines cannot be inserted because the database already contains a line with the same primary key, a runtime error occurs. You can prevent the runtime error occurring by using the addition ACCEPTING DUPLICATE KEYS.
Whenever you want to insert more than one line into a database table, it is more efficient to work with an internal table than to insert the lines one by one.
I think the syntax
INSERT my_dbtable FROM TABLE gi_data.
should work, your suggestion may lead to syntax error.

Clemens

Could not delete from specified table?

hi all,
i'm getting this error could not delete from specified table when i execute a delete on dbf file via JDBC-ODBC bridge, when i execute an update table command i get operation must use an updatable query, but i'm not updating the query returned from select statement.
Does anyone have similar problem before??

Hi,
my code is below:
try {
conn=DriverManager.getConnectio("jdbc:odbc:sui","","");
stmt = conn.createStatement();
int r= stmt.executeUpdate("Update Alarms set ACK=True WHERE DT = { d '" + msgdate + "' } AND TM= '" + msgtime + "'");
System.out.println(r+" records updated in Alarms ");
stmt.close();
conn.close();
stmt=null;
conn=null;
catch (NullPointerException e) {System.out.println(e.getMessage());}
catch (SQLException e) {System.out.println(e.getMessage());}
I have an ODBC datasource called sui and a table called alarms, i need to write into the column Ack to true when DT equals msgdate and TM equals msgtime, the error returned is Operation must use an updatable query.
I believe the SQL has no problem because there is no SQL syntax error and i'm not updating any resultset returned from select query.
When i delete, i get could not delete from specified table. Anyone has any idea wh'at's wrong?

How to send data from internal table to the shared folder in ABAP

Hi experts,
My requirement is to transfer data from a file to shared folder. i just did reading data from a file to a internal table. Now i want to send this internal table data into a shared folder which is "
xxx\y\z....".
I do not have any idea on how to send data from internal table to the shared folder path.
can anybody please help me out how to do this?
Thanks & Regards
Sireesha.

Where that folder is located, its on presentation server i.e. desktop or application server.
If its on presentation server, use FM GUI_UPLOAD.
If its on application server, then use DATASET functions. Have a look at below link.
