How to Update millions or records in a table

I got a table which contains millions or records.
I want to update and commit every time for so many records ( say 10,000 records). I
dont want to do in one stroke as I may end up in Rollback segment issue(s). Any
suggestions please ! ! !
Thanks in Advance

Group your Updates.
1.) Look for a good group criteria in your table, a Index on it is recommend.
2.) Create an PL/SQL Cursor with the group criteria in the where clause.
cursor cur_updt (p_crit_id number) is
select * from large_table
where crit_id > p_crit_id;
3.) Now you can commit in a serial loop all your updates.

Update Millions of records in a table

Hi ,
My DB is 10.2.0
This is a very generic question, hence I am not adding the Plan.
I have to update a column in a table with value of sum of another column from the same table.
The table has 19 million records.
UPDATE transactions a SET rest_amount = Nvl((SELECT Sum(trans_amount) FROM transactions b
WHERE b.trans_date=a.trans_date AND trans_ind < 2),trans_amount)
WHERE trans_grp < 6999 and trans_ind < 2;This query takes 10 hours to run. There are indexes on trans_date and trans_grp. There is no index on rest_amount column.
As per tom in
http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:6407993912330
He had suggested to disable all indexes and constraints and then enable them. Is it applicable only for INSERT or for all DML.
Only during insert the constraints will be validated and index will be refreshed with the new row. But in my case, I am updating a column which is not a part of any index. Should I go as per tom's suggestion ???

The table has 19 million records.How many rows (that's rows) are actually updated?

How to update or delete records in a Complex View in Forms?

Hi,
I have a requirement to create a Form by using Complex View. Insertion is possible but updation and deletion is not working properly . I got FRM-40501 Error. I need How to update or delete records in a Complex View in Forms?
Thanks & Regards,
Hari Babu

Depending on how complex your view is, forms is not able to determine how to appropiately lock a record, when you try to update or delete a record.
One approach to using complex views in forms:
1. Set the Key-mode of the block to "Non-Updateable"
2. Mark the column which can be used to build the WHERE-condition to uniquely identify a record with "Primary Key" = "Yes"
3. For doing INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE, create an INSTEAD-OF-trigger on the view.
4. Create your own ON-LOCK-trigger in forms which does the locking of the records to update.

Best way to insert millions of records into the table

Hi,
Performance point of view, I am looking for the suggestion to choose best way to insert millions of records into the table.
Also guide me How to implement in easier way to make better performance.
Thanks,
Orahar.

Orahar wrote:
Its Distributed data. No. of clients and N no. of Transaction data fetching from the database based on the different conditions and insert into another transaction table which is like batch process.Sounds contradictory.
If the source data is already in the database, it is centralised.
In that case you ideally do not want the overhead of shipping that data to a client, the client processing it, and the client shipping the results back to the database to be stored (inserted).
It is must faster and more scalable for the client to instruct the database (via a stored proc or package) what to do, and that code (running on the database) to process the data.
For a stored proc, the same principle applies. It is faster for it to instruct the SQL engine what to do (via an INSERT..SELECT statement), then pulling the data from the SQL engine using a cursor fetch loop, and then pushing that data again to the SQL engine using an insert statement.
An INSERT..SELECT can also be done as a direct path insert. This introduces some limitations, but is faster than a normal insert.
If the data processing is too complex for an INSERT..SELECT, then pulling the data into PL/SQL, processing it there, and pushing it back into the database is the next best option. This should be done using bulk processing though in order to optimise the data transfer process between the PL/SQL and SQL engines.
Other performance considerations are the constraints on the insert table, the triggers, the indexes and so on. Make sure that data integrity is guaranteed (e.g. via PKs and FKs), and optimal (e.g. FKs should be indexes on the referenced table). Using triggers - well, that may not be the best approach (like for exampling using a trigger to assign a sequence value when it can be faster done in the insert SQL itself). Personally, I avoid using triggers - I rather have that code residing in a PL/SQL API for manipulating data in that table.
The type of table also plays a role. Make sure that the decision about the table structure, hashed, indexed, partitioned, etc, is the optimal one for the data structure that is to reside in that table.

How to find last inserted record in the table "Manufacture".Not possible as your data model does not cater for it. That simple.
If there is a need to determine some order or associate some time to an entity, then that should be part of the data model - and a relationship, or one or more attributes are needed to represent that information. Thus your data model in this case is unable to meet your requirements.
If the requirements are valid, fix the data model. In other words - your question has nothing to do with Oracle and nothing to do with rowid, rowscn or other pseudo columns in Oracle. It is a pure data modeling issue. Nothing more.

How to ask questions in technical forum

How do I update all the records in a table from the contents of another table?

Ok some situation information, I have a pervasive database that runs our accounting software that I am pulling a product list from. I have that list stored in a table in SQL. From time to time we update the records in the pervasive database and
I want to be able to pull those changes into the SQL table. I don't want to drop the table and recreate it because if a product is no longer active in the pervasive database it will not be returned by the query (if I return all the products even the
inactive ones I will get thousands of records rather than just a few hundred) and I do not want to loose the products from the table that are now inactive.
So what I want to be able to do is pull the list from pervasive, compare it to the list that exists in SQL and update any changed records, add any new records, and leave any now missing records alone(missing from the pervasive list but present in the SQL
list). I have no trouble pulling the records from pervasive (now) but I am a little stumped on how to do the rest. I am not sure if this is a situation to use MERGE or not. I also do not really need this to be done on a regular basis as the
changes do not happen often enough for that, the ability to manually trigger it would be enough.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi David,
lets say you want to go with the lookup transformation.
lets say u want to move the data from server A table A1 to Server B table B1
What you need to do is the following:
Cofigure the Lookup options as follows:
- In general -> Specify how to handle rows with no macthing entries -> "Redirect Rows to no Match Output"
- In Connection -> Set the ole db connection to the Server B and select the table B you want to lookup the values in your case the table where you want to input the changes
- In columns -> link the product column from table A to product column in table B. And do not select any rows to output.
- now your component is ready next you need to input. so when u connect your lookup to the destination component You will get an option to select which output you want to use - use "Lookup No Match Output".
this will actually just allow you to add only new items only to the table B.

Hi,
Through BDC or LSMW first you have to do the recording for particular transaction code and then base on that u have to prepare the flat file to upload the file for the same.
For BDC programing you have to take the help of ABAP progmer but LSMW you can also do.
For more information about LSMW plz go to following link :
[LSMW |http://www.slideshare.net/arun_bala1/sap-sd-lsmw-legacy-system-migration-workbench/]
[Step-by-Step Guide for using LSMW|www.scmexpertonline.com/downloads/SCM_LSMW_StepsOnWeb.doc ]
BDC
[BDC Call Transaction|http://www.sapdevelopment.co.uk/bdc/bdc_ctcode.htm]
[BDC Recording|http://www.sapdevelopment.co.uk/bdc/bdc_recording.htm]
But it would be better for you to please contact to your ABAPer for BDC programming.

How to update all the record for a particular column in a table based on search criteria.

Hi All,
I am new to ADF. I have a requirement, where i have to perform mass update on a table.
Scenario:
Ex: I have a dept manual search region. where i search with deptId: 20. I get 20 records in my table. now i have another region where i have a inputchoice list which contains all the columns names that exists in dept table. Beside that i have a input text box and an update button
Now user, first searches with dept id:20 and clicks on search button, where it shows 20 record in the table. He then select a column from input choicelist(ex: ManagerId), then enters new value in the input box(ex: abc) then clicks on update button.
Now i want, all the records in the ManagerId column with dept id:20 to be updated with the new value "abc"
Can anyone help me with the code.
Thanks in advance..

Hi,
If you go to your VO and generate the ViewObjectImpl, in there you can create a method which will contain two parameters, 1 the attribute name and 2 the value.
Then you can follow something like explained in this post:
ADF Tutorial: How to apply bulk actions to a view object rows
The only difference is that you will need to create a method like this:
public void updateAttribute(String attribute, Integer value){
        RowSetIterator iter = createRowSetIterator(null);
        while (iter.hasNext()){
            Row row = iter.next();
            row.setAttribute(attribute, value);
Then you expose that as a client interface and then after you filter your table by your criteria you just need to execute this method passing the right parameters.

How do you insert new records into multiple tables using the same unique primary key?

I’ve created a PHP site and MySQL server using a free app called XAMPP. I have successfully created a form in Dreamweaver that will write data to a (name) table in the SQL database. Here’s my question: How do you write to two (or more) tables in the same database and pass the same primary key to both tables? In the SQL database, I defined the first field as ID and set it as the primary key with auto update. So, when you insert a new record, it creates a unique primary key for that record. In my form, I’m capturing info that needs to be stored to two tables at the same time; a Name table and Address table. Since the Name and Address tables use the ID field as the primary key, I believe I will need to pass the ID value from the Name table to the insert of the Address table to insure they both have the same primary key, right?

No. You probably need the primary key from one table to be a foreign key in the other tables. In any case, I believe you can use two methods to obtain the auto generated key. First with SQL:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/getting-unique-id.html
And the other using a PHP function:

Update Multiple DB records in one table with one form

I am developing an onine proofing system that will display a
number of images, and then allow the customer to approve each
image, as well as provide comments.
I currently have a table setup with the various elements (an
image that dynamically gets its name, details about the image, and
the neccessary form fields).
See This
Image for the layout
I would then apply a repeat region (the number of signs would
vary), and like to update all the records with the customer's
comments and approval with one form. How is this done? I have
downloaded a trial of the developers toolkit, but the documentation
is horrible. I would be willing to buy an extension that will allow
this, if one exists.

I found an extension that did this in about two minutes:

Excellent software, highly recommended. Easy to figure out,
and got this "problem" resolved fast.

Update the change record in z table

Hi,
I am doing a module pool programming.If i change the particular record only changed record shd be updated in the z table.
How can i update only changed record in the database table in module pool.
Regards

Hi Rasheed,
Use this code to update ztable from the module pool table control, its working.
At screen flow logic
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
MODULE STATUS_8001.
LOOP WITH CONTROL TAB.
    MODULE PASS_DATA. "module to pass data into table control
ENDLOOP.
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
MODULE USER_COMMAND_8001.
LOOP WITH CONTROL TAB. "tab is the table control on the screen
    MODULE MODIFY_DATA. "module to modify data in internal table
ENDLOOP.
MODULE SAVE_DATA. "module to save the modified data into database table
Design a PF-Status with a SAVE button with function code 'SAVE'.
In PBO
MODULE STATUS_8001 OUTPUT.
SET PF-STATUS 'Z_TABCT'. "pf-status with appropiate buttons
* SET TITLEBAR 'xxx'.
DATA : LINE_COUNT TYPE I.
DESCRIBE TABLE ITAB
LINES LINE_COUNT.
TAB-LINES = LINE_COUNT + 3. "increment the line of table control dynamically so that table control becomes scrollable
ENDMODULE.                 " STATUS_8001 OUTPUT
MODULE PASS_DATA OUTPUT.
SORT ITAB.
READ TABLE ITAB INDEX TAB-CURRENT_LINE.
ENDMODULE.                 " PASS_DATA OUTPUT
In PAI
MODULE USER_COMMAND_8001 INPUT.
OK_CODE = SY-UCOMM.
CASE OK_CODE.
    WHEN 'BACK'.
      LEAVE TO SCREEN 8000.
ENDCASE.
ENDMODULE.                 " USER_COMMAND_8001 INPUT
MODULE MODIFY_DATA INPUT.
MODIFY ITAB INDEX TAB-CURRENT_LINE.
ENDMODULE.                 " MODIFY_DATA INPUT
MODULE SAVE_DATA INPUT.
OK_CODE = SY-UCOMM.
CASE OK_CODE.
    WHEN 'SAVE'.
      MODIFY ITAB INDEX TAB-CURRENT_LINE. "update modifed records
      UPDATE ZTABLE FROM TABLE ITAB. "update database table from internal table
ENDCASE.
ENDMODULE.                 " SAVE_DATA INPUT
Hope this solves your problem.
Thanks & Regards
