How to create a sequence in ABAP?

Hi guys,
we have a requirement to create some data in a FM and every document must have a unique sequential number. How to achieve this?
Numbering should be in a format 0009561544 (so 10 chars) and should start from 0001000000.
One option would be to create a table with one value and read and increase it's value each time it is called.
Is there any other option how to achieve it?
Thank you,
Olian

Hi Rob,
thank you for the answer.
Can you please tell me more details about it? When I create a number range object, how can I retrieve a current value and increase it from a FM?
Thanks,
Olian

How to create a SEQUENCE in MSSQL2005

Hi
I am also having a similar problem which opened the thread
Actually i am using a Repositery which is created in MSSQL2005.
Now i want to create a SEQUENCE similar to Oracle and populate My surrogate Key Column.
Can u tell me how to create a SEQUENCE in MSSQL2005?

Thanks
Gourisankar

Hi Gourisankar,
There is no sequence concept in MS SQL Server rather it has IDENTITY.
In MS SQL Server if you declare a column type as a Identity it will be auto increment when a new record inserts.
So in you underlying table create a column as ID and type as "Identity" and in your mapping leave that field un mapped.
Have a look and google more on "identity in ms sql server" ;)

Hello,
perhaps this will help you --> <a href="http://www.sap-img.com/bc049.htm">instructions</a>
And this quote from another thread:
<i>in SAPNW2004sSneakPreviewABAP this procedure only works if the system <b>profile parameter login/no_automatic_user_sapstar is set to 0</b> (and the system restarted after that), otherwise you will have a new client without any user thus useless ;-).</i>

How to Create Test Sequence Document in HTML using command line

How to Create Test Sequence Document in HTML using command line
I have lot of sequences and I want to create Test Sequence Documentation in HTML format using Command Line automatically, is there a way to automate this task using .bat file or using C# .Net

If you aren't able to figure out how to call a C++ DLL in .net then there may be another option. Unfortunately I don't know how to do this off the top of my head and I don't have an example.
The other option would be to change docgen.seq a little bit to the dialog doesn't display and you just hardcode the options. Then you can use a command line to call testexec.exe: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370052K-01/tsfundamentals/infotopics/startup_opt/

How to create a sequence for an particular item in my apex form

Hi friends,
I created an database application, of a form with a report, and it is working fine...
But in my form, i have a requirement....The below are the existing fields in my form
issue no
created by
start date
status
priority
due date
Among these fields in my form i need to create a 'Sequence' for my field "issue no",
So that whenever i opened the form the 'issue number' must generate automatically like 1 for the first time, 2 for the second time and so on..
For that i created a sequence
CREATE SEQUENCE "ORDERS_SEQ"
MINVALUE 1
MAXVALUE 999999999999999999999999999
INCREMENT BY 1
START WITH 1000
NOCACHE
NOCYCLE;
But for validation where i need to write the sequence query for the particular item 'issue no'....i dont have any idea of where to write the validation query for the sequence..
please tell where i need to write in step wise manner..please help me friends...
As the below is my validated sequence query for item 'issue no'
'select seq.issue_id.nextval into issue_no'
This is my above validation query whether the query that i mentioned is right..if not let me know the validation query..
And also i need where to apply this validation query in steps..
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Harry...

Harry,
Rik is on the right track. Here is a sample insert trigger: Would need to substitute you sequence ORDERS_SEQ with my sequence las_log_seq, how you define or use timestamps is up to you.
DROP TRIGGER LASDEV.BINS1_LAS_LOG_TBL;
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER LASDEV."BINS1_LAS_LOG_TBL"
   BEFORE INSERT
   ON las_log_tbl
   FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
   -- Description: Insert log_seq, creation_dt, creation_id,
   --              lst_updt_dt and lst_updt_id.
   -- Maintenance:
   -- Date        Actor          Action
   -- ====        =====          ======
   -- 07-Sep-2010 J. Wells       Create.
   :new.creation_id := nvl( v( 'app_user' ), user );
   :new.creation_dt := SYSDATE;
   :new.lst_updt_dt := :new.creation_dt;
   :new.lst_updt_id := :new.creation_id;
    SELECT las_log_seq.NEXTVAL
      INTO :new.las_log_seq
      FROM DUAL;
END bins1_las_log_tbl;

How to create a sequence based on name, country, city, year, month, number

Hello,
I am using Application Express 4.2.1.00.08
I am new to apex and i need some help in creating a sequence.
I am creating an application where i profile people and i need to create an auto sequence that when the person is added to the database he will have his own sequence based on his name, country, city, year he was added, month he was added and his number.
This is a bit tricky because each person will have a different name, country city etc.
How can this be done ?

Hello,
I have to create a sequence so that when for example an employee is added using a form his ID will be saved based on his name, country, city, year he was created, month he was created and his number.
However, each employee is diff, so when you add another employee to the form his ID will be different, different name, country, city etc..
This has to be automatically generated.. is this possible?

How to create a job thru ABAP program for calling a program with variant???

Hello experts,
can u give me step wise procedure to create jobs for a program with a variant name thru ABAP???
Also, can a transaction can be scheduled as a job to run in background with a variant name???
Edited by: SAP USER on Jul 22, 2008 6:08 AM

Hi,
To create a job through ABAP program you can do the following.
Go to Menu bar.
In there, go to SYTSTEM> SERVICES> JOBS--> DEFINE JOB.
Then give the JOB NAME and CLASS in the screen that comes up.
This is how we schedule a program.
Now, to create a variant for a program -
First activate your program in SE38. Then execute it .
Now, click on SAVE button. It will open up the variant creation screen. Give the details there like variant name and value for the fields. Save and come back.
Hope this helps.

Hari Kiran

How to create a sequence in Answers?

Hi everyone,
I want to know if it's possible to create a sequence in Answers and how.
I have a Pivot table that I want to assign row numbers, but when I use RCOUNT(1) in a Dummy column I end up with 1 in all rows.
This is the format of my pivot table.
-------------------------------------Measure---
---------------------------------Y-1-------Y----
Order(DUMMY)---Code---Desc-- 2009 ----- 2010
1 435 idn 1 2
1 53 dvf 3 1
1 123 asd 8 4
I've tried to do RCOUNT(1 by Y) but then I end up having the double of rows.
Can it be done???
Thanks in Advanced

Try doing this:
1) Create a dummy column and call it DUMMY with this in the fx:
CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN tablename.columname ELSE 'whatever' END
2) You can hide this column.
3) Then in your "sequence" column, click on the fx and type:
RCOUNT(1 by DUMMY)
where "DUMMY" is the column created in step 1.

How to Create an XML using Abap Objects

Hi Johann,
You don't need a class to do the job if you are on a 6.10 or higher system. Use command CALL TRANSFORMATION to create an XML from an internal table.
