How to select set of unique data records from internal table

Hi
I am looking for a command in order to select all unique data-records from an internal table without using a loop. Does anybody know a command that could do this?
An illustrating example:
Example:
Table content
a 1
a 2
a 3
b 1
b 2
c 1
c 2
c 3
d 1
So I am looking for a command that should provide a, b, c & d for the first column or 1, 2 & 3 for the second column

Hi,
SELECT DISTINCT MATNR
FROM MARA
into table i_mara.
Best regards,
Prashant

Hi,
loop at internal table.
modify <Z- table > from values < internal table Workarea>.
if sy-subrc = 0.

Inserting records from internal table to database table

Hi all,
i want to insert records from internal table to zDatabase table, can u plz guide me which statement is better in performance to insert the records.
1) insert one by one record from internal table
loop at itab.
insert ztable from wa.
endloop.
2) insert total records at a time
INSERT <dbtabname> CLIENT SPECIFIED FROM TABLE itab.
or let me know if any other statement is there with high performance.
i internal table contains nearly 40000 records.
thanks.

Hi,
Insert the entire table at atime rather than a record so as to increase the performance.
you can use INSERT <dbtabname> CLIENT SPECIFIED FROM TABLE itab.
or
MODIFY ZPRODUCT FROM TABLE GI_AFPO.

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.

You can test this piece of code.
DATA:
i_tab TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF mara,
wa_tab TYPE mara.
wa_tab-matnr = '1000'.
APPEND wa_tab TO i_tab.
CLEAR wa_tab.
wa_tab-matnr = '1001'.
APPEND wa_tab TO i_tab.
CLEAR wa_tab.
wa_tab-matnr = '1002'.
APPEND wa_tab TO i_tab.
CLEAR wa_tab.
wa_tab-matnr = '1003'.
APPEND wa_tab TO i_tab.
CLEAR wa_tab.
wa_tab-matnr = '2001'.
APPEND wa_tab TO i_tab.
CLEAR wa_tab.
wa_tab-matnr = '3001'.
APPEND wa_tab TO i_tab.
CLEAR wa_tab.
wa_tab-matnr = '4010'.
APPEND wa_tab TO i_tab.
CLEAR wa_tab.

Processing some records from internal table.

Hi,
My internal table contains material in lakhs.After fetching the record from database table MARA,i process each material to find out its characteristics.As there are too much records it is taking time, resulting in time out error abap dump. If i want to process first 5000 material then remaining 5000 and so on...what logic should i apply?or can there be any alternative solution?

Hi,
You can also check if the read statement has BInary Serach.
By Adding this it will improve performance.
Read statement will occupy lots of time to read the records.
Sort the Internal table with some key field and the use Binary Search for an internal table.
Ex :
SORT T_PRGEN by ATTR20A.
READ TABLE T_V_TCAV201 INTO WA_V_TCAV201 WITH KEY ATTRV20 = WA_PRGEN-ATTR20A BINARY SEARCH.
This should fix the issue.

Need help for SQL SELECT query to fetch XML records from Oracle tables having CLOB field

Hello,
I have a scenario wherein i need to fetch records from several oracle tables having CLOB fields(which is holding XML) and then merge them logically to form a hierarchy XML. All these tables are related with PK-FK relationship. This XML hierarchy is having 'OP' as top-most root node and ‘DE’ as it’s bottom-most node with One-To-Many relationship. Hence, Each OP can have multiple GM, Each GM can have multiple DM and so on.
Table structures are mentioned below:
OP:
Name Null Type
OP_NBR NOT NULL NUMBER(4) (Primary Key)
OP_DESC VARCHAR2(50)
OP_PAYLOD_XML CLOB
GM:
Name Null Type
GM_NBR NOT NULL NUMBER(4) (Primary Key)
GM_DESC VARCHAR2(40)
OP_NBR NOT NULL NUMBER(4) (Foreign Key)
GM_PAYLOD_XML CLOB
DM:
Name Null Type
DM_NBR NOT NULL NUMBER(4) (Primary Key)
DM_DESC VARCHAR2(40)
GM_NBR NOT NULL NUMBER(4) (Foreign Key)
DM_PAYLOD_XML CLOB
DE:
Name Null Type
DE_NBR NOT NULL NUMBER(4) (Primary Key)
DE_DESC NOT NULL VARCHAR2(40)
DM_NBR NOT NULL NUMBER(4) (Foreign Key)
DE_PAYLOD_XML CLOB
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
SELECT
j.op_nbr||'||'||j.op_desc||'||'||j.op_paylod_xml AS op_paylod_xml,
i.gm_nbr||'||'||i.gm_desc||'||'||i.gm_paylod_xml AS gm_paylod_xml,
h.dm_nbr||'||'||h.dm_desc||'||'||h.dm_paylod_xml AS dm_paylod_xml,
g.de_nbr||'||'||g.de_desc||'||'||g.de_paylod_xml AS de_paylod_xml,
FROM
DE g, DM h, GM i, OP j
WHERE
h.dm_nbr = g.dm_nbr(+) and
i.gm_nbr = h.gm_nbr(+) and
j.op_nbr = i.op_nbr(+)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I am using above SQL select statement for fetching the XML records and this gives me all related xmls for each entity in a single record(OP, GM, DM. DE). Output of this SQL query is as below:
Current O/P:
<resultSet>
 <Record1>
 <OP_PAYLOD_XML1>
 <GM_PAYLOD_XML1>
 <DM_PAYLOD_XML1>
 <DE_PAYLOD_XML1>
 </Record1>
 <Record2>
 <OP_PAYLOD_XML2>
 <GM_PAYLOD_XML2>
 <DM_PAYLOD_XML2>
 <DE_PAYLOD_XML2>
 </Record2>
 <RecordN>
 <OP_PAYLOD_XMLN>
 <GM_PAYLOD_XMLN>
 <DM_PAYLOD_XMLN>
 <DE_PAYLOD_XMLN>
 </RecordN>
</resultSet>
Now i want to change my SQL query so that i get following output structure:
<resultSet>
 <Record>
 <OP_PAYLOD_XML1>
 <GM_PAYLOD_XML1>
 <GM_PAYLOD_XML2> .......
 <GM_PAYLOD_XMLN>
 <DM_PAYLOD_XML1>
 <DM_PAYLOD_XML2> .......
 <DM_PAYLOD_XMLN>
 <DE_PAYLOD_XML1>
 <DE_PAYLOD_XML2> .......
 <DE_PAYLOD_XMLN>
 </Record>
 <Record>
 <OP_PAYLOD_XML2>
 <GM_PAYLOD_XML1'>
 <GM_PAYLOD_XML2'> .......
 <GM_PAYLOD_XMLN'>
 <DM_PAYLOD_XML1'>
 <DM_PAYLOD_XML2'> .......
 <DM_PAYLOD_XMLN'>
 <DE_PAYLOD_XML1'>
 <DE_PAYLOD_XML2'> .......
 <DE_PAYLOD_XMLN'>
 </Record>
<resultSet>
Appreciate your help in this regard!

Hi,
A few questions :
How's your first query supposed to give you an XML output like you show ?
Is there something you're not telling us?
What's the content of, for example, <OP_PAYLOD_XML1> ?
I don't think it's a good idea to embed the node level in the tag name, it would make much sense to expose that as an attribute.
What's the db version BTW?

How to get multiple records from internal table through BDC

PERFORM DYNPRO USING:
'X' 'SAPMM61L' '0500',
' ' 'BDC_OKCODE' '=NEWC',
'X' 'SAPMM61L' '0500',
' ' 'BDC_CURSOR' 'PLPTU-PLWRK(01)',
' ' 'BDC_OKCODE' '=TAKE',
' ' 'PLPTU-PLWRK(01)' '2531'. (2531 is a plant)
This is the recording used to get plant via BDC of MS31.
Using this code i can get only single plant...
If i want to get multiple plants from an internal table,how i can change this code?
Since it is a recording i cant put this code in LOOP..ENDLOOP.
Suggest any method for doing this....
Awaiting for ur reply...

Hi,
While recording also record the scroll down button.
The you can place different plant in the BDC using loop and endloop

Deleting records from internal table.

Hello Friends,
I have done F1 on delete and also went through the forum . I want to do a delete effectively as it involves huge amount of data ..
Lets cosider I have two internal tables ITAB 1 and ITAB 2 .
ITAB 1 has 10000 records having two key fields
ITAB2 has 1000 records having the same two key fields in it .
THe other fields are different .
Now I want to perform an operation where for corresponding 1000 records in ITAB2 I must delete the records in ITAB1 and result in ITAB 1 must be 10000 - 1000 = 9000 records.
Which could be the most effecient way to do this.?
Comradely,
K.Sibi

Are you sure that the keys are all unique? That is non trivial with internal tables.
If yes, then you should define itab1 as a hashed table or copy into a hashed table.
LOOP AT itab2
    READ TABLE itab1 WITH TABLE KEY ...
    IF ( sy-subrc = 0 ).
      DELETE itab1 WITH TABLE KEY ...
    ENDIF
ENDLOOP.
You can also use sorted tables and delete with index, will be somewhat slower. Or standard table with REAB BINARY SEARCH and DELETE with index.
If the uniqueness is unclear, then you must change the order and LOOP itab1first and comletely, because the same key can appear several times.
A READ without BINARY SEARCH will kill you, i.e. the above recommendation is incorrect.

Trouble fetching record from Internal table

Hi all,
I am using a binary search read for retrieving data from an internal table, but i am not able to fetch a particular record even while it is present in the internal table.

Check if you are sorting the table. When you are not sorting the table, the read fetch the next highest key field from the table e.g.
Suppose if you have an internal table with following keys:
12
9
13
2
22
the read will pick only 12,13 & 22 record.

This is my internal table data. Now i need to delete the records for each OBJID where ENDDA(Date field) is not eaual to the year 9999. And also if there is no OBJID with year as 9999 then need to keep the reocrd for further processing.Here in this case i should not delete that record.
Please help me out in writing the logic for the same.

APPEND itab.
itab-objid = 0.itab-endda = sy-datum.
APPEND itab.
itab-objid = 4.itab-endda = '20041212'.
APPEND itab.
itab-objid = 5.itab-endda = '99991212'.

Hi ,
You need to use the fields in sort statement on whichyiu wnat to perform Delete Adjacent duplicates..
sort ta_itab6 by kunnr vbeln COMP_QTY COMP_QTY1.
DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM ta_itab6 comparing COMP_QTY COMP_QTY1.

Delete records from internal table using another internal table

HI,
I have two internal tables itab1 and itab2 which have same records initially.Later some records of itab2 are deleted .Then i want to delete those records from itab1 also ie,those records not found in itab2 .Is there any method other than looping.
So that itab1 again becomes equal to itab2.
Thanks in advance.
Sowmya.

Soumya,
Itab1 , Itab2 .
Before deleting the records from itab2 move those records to one more internal table itab3.
Now you have deleted records of itab2 in itab3.
SORT ITAB3,ITAB1 by your main key field.
LOOP AT itab3.
READ TABLE ITAB1 WITH KEY key field = itab3-
keyfield.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
DELETE itab1 where keyfield eq itab3-keyfield.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
