How to select LAST line from a SAP table?

Hi developers,
I need to select the last line from a SAP table, NOT from an internal table.
Something like
SELECT SINGLE LAST FROM pa00169..
any help is more than welcome.

Javier,
Based on this statement from you:
"i created a Z table, its a config table that stores some bussines rules, and an id counter, so in order to update that counter i need the last line of the ztable."
I have one additional solution which is the "text box" approach IF the 'id counter' mentioned above is a numeric data type.
If so, use an SQL function to get the highest value of ID_COUNTER.
Then simply add one to it to produce a new, unique, higher-order primary key.
See below:
data: l_id_counter like ztable-id_counter.
data: new_id_counter like ztable-id_counter.
select max( ID_COUNTER ) from ztable into l_id_counter.
new_id_counter = l_i_counter + 1.
Now new_id_counter will be the unique, primary key IF this is the only field in ZTABLE's primary key.
This will also GUARANTEE that your new record is built correctly.

  • How to select alternate entries from the database table

    Hi Experts,
    can u help me, how to select alternate entries from the database table.
    Thanks

    As there is no concept of sequence (unless there is a field specifically included for the purpose), there is no meaning to "alternate" records.
    What table do you have in mind, what data does it hold, and why do you want alternate records?

  • How to read last line from a .txt file?

    Hello
    I have a string: e.g. "my name is John"
    and i wanna verify if this string is equal with the last line from a text file
    for example, if in the txt file i have:
    asdasd
    sdgsdfgasd
    asdfgadfgadf
    sdgasdgsdf
    my name is john
    then it's OK.
    but if i have
    asdgsdfg
    dsfhsdfhsd
    sdgasdfg
    sdgsdg
    my name is Jdfgsdg
    this is not correct
    How should i do this?
    Thanks:)

    Read from the beginning an discard all lines (if you have a small file), or use RandomAccessFile and scan from the end till you find the beginning of the last line.

  • Select last line item from VBAP

    Dear SAP experts,
    This might sound very silly question but I am new to SAP world.
    is there a simple select statement to select only higest line item.
    Say for example in VBAP, I have 9 line items.
    then my select statement should find the last line item. ie. 9th item.
    Actually, I have a situation where a custom table has 2 key fields and I want to select the only 1 line with higest number in 2nr column. Thank you.
    Anitha.

    Hi,
    types: BEGIN OF ls_vbap,
             vbeln TYPE vbap-vbeln,
             posnr TYPE vbap-posnr,
           END OF ls_vbap.
    DATA : t_vbap TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF vbap WITH HEADER LINE,
           wa_vbap type ls_vbap.
    data: lv_line type int4.
    SELECT vbeln posnr FROM kna1 INTO TABLE t_vbap.
    *****If you just need the last record then write the code  as shown below:
    DESCRIBE TABLE t_vbap LINES lv_line.
    READ TABLE t_vbap INTO wa_vbap INDEX lv_line.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    write:/ wa_vbap-vbeln.
    endif.
    If you the need the last record after sorting then use the below code:
    SORT t_vbap by vbeln posnr DESCENDING.
    READ TABLE t_vbap into wa_vbap index 1.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    write:/ wa_vbap-vbeln.
    endif.

  • How to select the vendor from the source list in the PO(me21n) screen ??

    Hi
    How to select the vendor from the source list in the PO(me21n) screen.
    Is there any Sources of Supply tab in the PO just like we have in the PR.
    I don't want a PO raised from a PR which has got the Vendor assigned to it already.
    Or the SAP doesnot provide the option of Source list/Assign source/Sources of Supply .....in the PO.
    Kindly reply

    There is not any facility available for Source Determination in PO. Only you can select the line item and click Menu Environment > Source List and view the list of sources available for the material but you can not chooss and assign. If you wan to assign the vendor then change the vendor already entered in PO and put the desired vendor.

  • Read to get the last line from a File

    Hi
    I am sending in a clarification , hoping that I get an efficient solution from the group, should somebody have come across this scenario and implemented.
    How to read or get the last line from a text file , which usually have a no of records, without actually reading or looping through all the lines
    I know there is some solution with the RandomAccessFile, but given there can be some encoding issues or so.
    Please let me know if somebody have implemented the same.
    Thanks n advance

    The character encoding could, indeed, be an issue especially with UTF-8. I think what I'd do is to create a byte array with the encoded, expected end of line sequence in it and work on the file in bytes. For example, seek to the last 100 bytes of the file, read those bytes and look for an EOL sequence backwards. If not found read the previous 100, 200, 400 bytes etc. until you do find an end of line. Then seek to after the EOL and read normally. Remember an EOL sequence might cross a boundary.
    UTF-8 would be a problem, especially with a unix format file because you might mistake part of a multi-byte sequence for '\n'. To be reliable on UTF-8 you'd need to go back three characters looking for sequence start markers (has the previous character got the top bit set, or the one before that the first two bits set, or the one before that the top three bits). Or you could just react to an encoding exception and try another position.

    If by reserve you mean should not move on scrolling then make them KEY from fieldcatalog.
    But I think maximum of 10-12 can be handled by that.

    How to select multiple values from the parameter drop down in BI Publisher, and how to handle this mulitple values from the report sql...

    Hi kishore,
    I have used all the steps as you mentioned in your previous reply....including checking Mulitple Selection Check Box..
    Iam able to get the results when I am selecting one value..
    and also I am able to handle multiple values the in the query by using IN :Parameter, but seems when we select more than one value from the parameter drop down i think the Bi Publisher is sending the values in concatenated form something ilke
    ex: "'ACCOUNT','HR','SALES'" ,and when trying to display the parameters values in the output, its throwing the error as 'missing right paranthesis' ....on the whole do you have any solution which would handle
    1.Single selection.
    2.Multiple selection.
    3.'ALL' Values.
    4.Separating the concatenated string into individual strings and dispaly them on the output of the report..etc..in case of Mulitple selection.
    Ex:
    Concatenated String from BI Publisher:"'ACCOUNT','HR','SALES'"
    Expected Output on the report:ACCOUNT,HR,SALES
    reply to this would be much appreciated....

  • How to select multiple values from the Parameters in the concurrent program

    How to select multiple values from the Parameters defined in the concurrent program...and i believe multiple selection is not a direct feature of EBS, but is there any workaround solution to acheive mulitple selection?

    I think there's no way to do that using standard feature.
    Some workaround I use :
    1. If the number of selections are fixed, you could use multiple parameters for the same valueset. For example :
    Selection1 : <choose first selection>
    Selection2: <choose 2nd selection>
    ..etc.
    If you don't use it then leave it empty.
    2. Use text varchar valueset and enter it manually and separate by comma (or other value) , eg : selection1,selection2,selection3....etc.

  • How to Select a value from DropDownByIndex -Urgent

    Hi All,
    I have dropdownbyindex UI elements in my Views, I get values from BAPI. When click records in a table, It goes to another view to display full record. Here i have dropdownbyIndexes So it should select one of appropriate value in dropdownbyindex based on record(Value) in table.
    Example:
    <u><i><b>In Table View</b></i></u>
    id                  title                 status          priority
    10000      webDynPro            New              Low
    <i><u><b>Detail View:</b></u></i>
    id                   10000
    title                 webDynPro
    Status             New                  [New,Old,Open,Closed]---DropDownbyIndex
    Priority            Low                   [High,Low,Medium]---DropDownByIndex..4m BAPI
    How to select Appropriate Values from DropdownbyIndex. if any one has sample code, that will be helpful.
    Note: I am using Model Nodes
    Thanks and Regards
    Ravi Golla

    Hi Ravi,
    In details view, you will have corresponding context node created for Status and priority dropdown fields.
    Let suppose, context node for Status is, StatusNode.
    value attribute inside this is,
    StatusNode
      |_ StatusAttrib
    Now, you need to write following code to set l_status ="LOW" value in it.
    wdContext.nodeStatusNode().moveFirst();
    for(int i=0; i<wdContext.nodeStatusNode().size(); i++)
        if(wdcontext.currentStatusNodeElement().getStatusAttrib().equals(l_status)
              wdContext.nodeStatusNode().setLeadselection(i);
              break;
    wdContext.nodeStatusNode().moveNext();
    write same code for priority also.
    Let me know if it is not working with you.
    regards,
    Bhavik
