Views
Importance/Use of Views
Data for an application object is often distributed on several database tables. Database systems therefore provide you with a way of defining application-specific views on the data contained in several tables. These are called views.
Data from several tables can be combined in a meaningful way using a view (join). You can also hide information that is of no interest to you (projection) or only display those data records that satisfy certain conditions (selection).
A view is a logical view on one or more tables, that is, a view is not actually physically stored, instead being derived from one or more other tables.
The data of a view can be displayed exactly like the data of a table in the extended table maintenance.
Join, Projection and Selection
CROSS PRODUCT
Given two tables TABA and TABB. Table TABA has 2 entries and table TABB has 4 entries
Each record of TABA is first combined with each record of TABB. If a join condition is not defined, the cross product of tables TABA and TABB is displayed with the view.
Join condition
A join condition describes how the records of the two tables are connected.
Inner Join and Outer Join
The data that can be selected with a view depends primarily on whether the view implements an inner join or an outer join.
With an inner join, you only get the records of the cross-product for which there is an entry in all tables used in the view.
With an outer join, records are also selected for which there is no entry in some of the tables used in the view. (ABAP allows left outer join.)
The data that can be selected with a view depends primarily on whether the view implements an inner join or an outer join.
Projection
Sometimes some of the fields of the tables involved in a view are not of interest. The set of fields used in the view can be defined explicitly (projection). In our example, Field 4 is of no interest and can be hidden.
We specify the fields which we need to show in our view by including them under the view flds tab when creating a view in the dictionary.
+Selection Conditions+
Selection conditions that are used as a filter can be defined for a view.
Specifying these conditions under the Selection conditions tab when creating a view in the dictionary would have an effect which is similar to specifying a where clause when writing a select query to restrict data.
View Types
Four different view types are supported. These differ in the way in which the view is implemented and in the methods permitted for accessing the view data .
Database views are implemented with an equivalent view on the database.
Projection views are used to hide fields of a table (only projection).
Help views can be used as selection method in Search help.
Maintenance views permit you to maintain the data distributed on several tables for one application object at one time.
Database Views
Database views should be created if want to select logically connected data from different tables simultaneously.
Database views implement an inner join.
Application programs can access the data of a database view using the database interface. (Just as we write select queries on database tables, we can write them for views as well.)
Includes in Database Views
An entire table can be included in a database view. In this case all the fields of the included table will become fields of the view (whereby you can explicitly exclude certain fields).
To include one of the tables in the view, enter character * in field View field, the name of the table to be included in field Table and character * again in field Field name on the View fields tab page of the maintenance screen of the view.
You can also exclude individual fields of an included table. If you do not want to include a field of the included table in the view, enter - in field View field, the name of the included table in field Table and the name of the field to be excluded in field Field name.
Inserts with Database Views
If a database view contains only one single table, data can be inserted in this table with the view .
You have the following options for the contents of the table fields not contained in the view:
If the field is defined on the database with NOT NULL as initial value, the field is filled with the corresponding initial value.
If the field is defined on the database as NOT NULL without initial value, an insert is not possible. This results in a database error.
If the field is not defined on the database as NOT NULL, there will be a NULL value in this field.
Projection Views
Projection views are used to hide fields of a table. This can minimize interfaces; for example when you access the database, you only read and write the field contents actually needed
For the above diagram, fields F3 and F4 are irrelevant, and therefore hidden from the projection view of the table.
Maintenance Views
A maintenance view permits you to maintain the data of an application object together.
The maintenance status determines which accesses to the data of the underlying tables are possible with the maintenance view.
Maintenance Status
The maintenance status of a view controls whether data records can also be changed or inserted in the tables contained in the view.
The maintenance status can be defined as follows:
Read only: Data can only be read through the view.
Read, change, delete, insert: Data of the tables contained in the view can be
changed, deleted, and inserted through the view.
Read and change: Existing view entries can be changed. However, records
cannot be deleted or inserted.
Read and change (time-dependent views): Only entries whose non-time
dependent part of the key is the same as that of existing entries may be
inserted.
Help Views
Help view is created if a view with outer join is needed as selection method of a search help.
Help views are used exclusively for search helps.
A conventional database view selects data from the database using an inner join.
For a help view however, data is selected using a left outer join.
Eg-> Suppose table SCARR (Airline master table) has AA American airlines
AB Air Berlin
AC- Air Canada as three entries.
Table SPFLI (Flight schedule) has entries corresponding only to airlines AA (American airlines) and AB (Air Berlin).
Now if a database view were to be used as a selection method for a search help for airlines, we would only get AA and AB as possible entries because the database view implements an inner join.If however, we were to use a help view as the selection method here, we would get AA,AB and AC as possible entries because a help view would implement a left outer join.
Restrictions for Maintenance and Help Views
There are some restrictions for selecting the secondary tables of a maintenance view or help view. The secondary tables have to be in an N:1 dependency to the primary table or directly preceding secondary table. This ensures that there is at most one dependent record in each of the secondary tables for a data record in the primary table.
Append Views
Append views are used for enhancements of database views of the SAP standard.
With an append view, fields of the base tables of the view can be included in the view without modifications. This is analogous to enhancing a table with an append structure.
An append view is assigned to exactly one database view. More than one append view can be created for a database view.
The append technique described can only be used for database views. With an append view, only new fields from the base tables contained in the view can be inserted in the view. You cannot insert new tables in the view or modify the join conditions or selection conditions of the view.

How to create a view with Oracle apps Org initialization ?

Hi,
How to create a view which needs Oracle apps org initialization to provide the correct data .
The purpose of the view is to be accessed in Primavera DB via a DB link for reporting purpose.
So how should the org be initialized so that the view returns the correct data when accessed from the remote data base using the DB link?
EX: step1 run fnd_client_info.set_org_context for the org
step2 query the veiw returns correct data in Oracle.
How can this be achieved if the view needs to be accessed via DB link?
sample view sql :
select po_header_id
from po_distributions_all pod
where (apps.po_intg_document_funds_grp.get_active_encumbrance_func
('PO',
pod.po_distribution_id
) <> 0
Thanks in advance!
Darshini

Hi,
This is not possible in Oracle. What u can do is create the view without the where clasue and supply the where clause at runtime.
Hope this helps...

How to create new view without interlinking with gantt chart or resource views

ok clear
one another question
In msp how to create new view without interlinking with gantt chart or resource views

Hi Shiv PMC--
I splitted your question above in another thread in order not to have a huge thread with many topics in it.
That being said, I'm not sure to understand. A view is just a manner to display MS Project data with columns. A view can have a table with column (left part) associated with a Gantt chart. It can also just contain a table with no Gantt chart (like the task
table) or a table with a timephased grid (resource and task usage).
Please give us more information, maybe with a concrete example so we can help you.
Hope this helps,

How to create a view indicating column's length?

SQL>create table abc (a number(12));
I want to create a view cde with a length of number(5) by "describe cde" in sql*plus.
SQL>create view cde(a) as select a from abc;
SQL>desc cde
A NUMBER(12)
how to create a view indicating column's length? the actual value in abc only <1000
I want to create a view cde with a length of number(5) .
SQL>desc cde
A NUMBER(12)
Thank You
Ming-An Zhang

This does not make sense. How can a view be a NUMBER(5) and the actual column a NUMBER(12)?
What happens if there is a 10 or 12 digit number in the table? Just what is the view suppose to do? Crash and burn? Where is the logic in that?!
If the table's column has an incorrect precision and size, THEN FIX IT!! Do not hack it with view!
It is silly purposefully building constructs into the database that can easily result in run-time errors.

How to create a view object and attach with extended AM

Hi,
I tried to create new vo and attach this vo with the extended AM. But it is throwing error like 'PC.NAME : invalid identifier' (Actually this PC.NAME is exiting one).
Now i want to know how to create a view object similar like seeded one but with one additional condition in the where clause.
It is possible though extension, but i want to create two view object similar like seeded one, one with some other condition in the where clause
and another one with some other condition.
So for my requirement, i'll extend one VO and i'll add my condition but how to do it for second condition.
But i want same seeded VO with two different condition.
Any suggestions please,
SAN

SAN,
There is no need to attach the newly created VO with extended AM. You need to attach the same with the standard AM.

Gyan
