Insert data from internal table to ztable.

Hello Expert,
I have a ztable with a primary key, now i want to pass my data from the internal table to the ztable . I am using modify option to
pass the data to the ztable but the problem is if the primary key value is same then its update the first record rather add one row in the zrable .But i want to push all the data what are available in the internal table though all the data are same. I even tried with Insert statement but its seems it doesnot work.
Can you please advice me the right approach.
Thanks.

Hi,
It is all about the primary key fields of the database table.
Example:
You have a db table with following fields
MANDT (primary key field)
BUKRS (primary key field)
BELNR (primary key field)
GJAHR
VBELN
and it with same fields.
MANDT BUKRS BELNR GJAHR VBELN
120 0010 160000 2008 450000
120 0010 160000 2007 450003
120 0020 160000 2008 450000
200 0010 160001 2008 450001
200 0010 160001 2007 450001
If you use INSERT statement, only 3 of these will be inserted into the database table, why?
Because: Each database table must include one or a very small group of key fields that uniquely identify each table line by its value. These fields are known as the primary keys of the table.
And as lines 1 and 2 / 4 and 5 have the same MANDT BUKRS and BELNR only one will be inserted into the table.
If the database table is your own one, you will need to modify it so that it would work.
Thankyou.

  • [ECC6] Inserting data from internal table (deep structure) into db table

    Hi experts,
    I have a problem when inserting data from IT using deep structure into a database table. Please help:
    I have one database table with 2 columns ZTest (col1, col2). Col1 is key.
    In my program I have a deep structure t_screen using table type lvc_t_scol:
    In 4.6c systems, the INSERT statement works well but it does not work in ECC6 systems.
    DATA: BEGIN OF t_screen OCCURS 0,
            rec_count(3) TYPE n,
            col1 LIKE ZTest-col1,
            col2 LIKE ZTest-col2.
    DATA: ct TYPE lvc_t_scol.
    DATA: END   OF t_screen.
    t_screen-col1 = 'test1'.
    t_screen-col2 = 'test1'.
    APPEND t_screen.
    t_screen-col1 = 'test2'.
    t_screen-col2 = 'test2'.
    APPEND t_screen.
    INSERT ZTest FROM TABLE t_screen ACCEPTING DUPLICATE KEYS.
    Currently I have an idea using a temporary internal table with the same structure as ZTest. Use MOVE-CORRESPONDING statement to move data from t_screen table to temporary table before inserting --> It worked. But do you have any ideas without using temporary table?

    Hi
    There are a large number of stataments couldn't be supported in unicode system and so it doesn't allow to do it in ECC 6.
    U need to delete the deep structure from your defination:
    DATA: BEGIN OF t_screen OCCURS 0,
            rec_count(3) TYPE n,
            col1 LIKE ZTest-col1,
            col2 LIKE ZTest-col2.
    DATA: ct TYPE lvc_t_scol. "<-------- Error is here
    DATA: END   OF t_screen.
    So u need to use a structure like this to update your table:
    DATA: BEGIN OF T_ZTEST OCCURS 0,
            rec_count(3) TYPE n,
            col1 LIKE ZTest-col1,
            col2 LIKE ZTest-col2.
    DATA: END   OFT_ZTEST.

  • Question in ABAP syntax, read & insert data from internal table, while loop

    Hi, SDN Fellow.
    I am from Java background and learnt ABAP, I don't usually write much ABAP code.
    I am trying to implement the following logic in a RFC now.
    I have one z-custom database table, the structure as the following:
    It has two columns, with these sample data.
    Says datable table is ZEMPMGRTAB.
    EmployeeID,ManagerID
    user10,user1
    user9,user1
    user8,user1
    user7,user2
    user6,user2
    user5,user2
    user4,user2
    user2,user1
    The logic is this:
    I have a input parameter, userid. I am using this parameter to have a select statement to query the record into export table,EXPTAB 'LIKE' table ZEMPMGRTAB.
    SELECT * FROM  ZEMPMGRTAB
      into table EXPTAB
       WHERE  EMPLOYEEID  = USERID.
    Say, my parameter value, USERID ='USER4'.
    Referring to the sample data above, I can get the record of this in my EXPTAB,
    EmployeeID,ManagerID
    user4,user2
    Now, I want to iterately use the EXPTABLE-ManagerID
    as the USERID input in SELECT statement, until it has no return result. Then, insert the new records in
    EXPTAB.
    In above new loop case, we will get this table content in EXPTAB,
    EmployeeID,ManagerID
    user4,user2
    user2,user1
    I kind of think of the pseudocode logic as below:
    (These may not be a valid ABAP code, so I need help to convert/correct them)
    DATA:
    IWA TYEP ZZEMPMGRTAB,
    ITAB
    HASHED TABLE OF ZZEMPMGRTAB
    WITH UNIQUE KEY EMPLOYEEID.
    SELECT * FROM  ZEMPMGRTAB
      into table ITAB
       WHERE  EMPLOYEEID  = USERID.
    *Question 1: I cannot insert a internal table to export table, it is *incompatible type, what is the alternative way fo this?
    *Question 2: How can I access thedata of the internal table like this,ITAB-MANAGERID? As if I can, I would do this:
    * IWA-EMPLOYEEE = ITAB-EMPLOYEEID. IWA-MANAGERID = IWA-MANAGERID. INSERT IWA INTO TABLE EXPTAB.
    * Question 3: Is the 'NE NULL' - 'not equal to NULL' is right syntax?
    IF ITAB NE NULL.
    INSERT ITAB INTO EXPTAB.
    ENDIF
    * Question 4: Is my WHILE loop setup right here? And are the syntax right?
    WHILE ITAB NE NULL.
    SELECT * FROM  ZEMPMGRTAB
      into table ITAB
       WHERE  EMPLOYEEID  = ITAB-MANAGERID.
    IF ITAB NE NULL.
    INSERT ITAB INTO EXPTAB.
    ENDIF
    REFRESH ITAB.
    ENDWHILE.
    Assume all the syntax and logic are right, I should get this result:
    EmployeeID,ManagerID
    user4,user2
    user2,user1
    If I have a new entry in datable table,ZEMPMGRTAB like this:
    user1,user0
    My pseudocode logic will get this result:
    EmployeeID,ManagerID
    user4,user2
    user2,user1
    user1,user0
    I truly appreciate if you can help me to validate the above syntax and pseudocode logic.
    Thanks in advance.

  • 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.

    Regards,

    Hello michaels , thank you for the solution, still i am having some problems
    Here is what i have done :
    1.
    SQL> CREATE DIRECTORY my_table_dir AS 'E:\table_files'
    2 ;
    Directory created.
    2.
    SQL> select * from myemp;
    ENAME
    SMITH
    ALLEN
    3.
    This is the content of the existing xml file saved in the directory E:\table_files as emp.xml
    <EMPLOYEES>
    <EMP>JIM</EMP>
    <EMP>RICK</EMP>
    </EMPLOYEES>
    4.
    Now i executed this code :
    declare
    emp_xml xmltype;
    begin
    select sys_xmlagg (column_value, sys.xmlformat ('EMPLOYEES')) emp_xml
    into emp_xml
    from table (xmlsequence (cursor (select *
    from myemp
    where ename in ('SMITH', 'ALLEN')),
    sys.xmlformat ('EMP')
    dbms_xslprocessor.clob2file (emp_xml.getclobval (), 'E:\table_files', 'emp.xml');
    end;
    And the Error i got is :
    declare

  • Simple way to insert data from one table

    Hi,
    I need to know a simple way on how to transfer the data from one table to another....
    First table xx_inv_tab1 has three columns col1, col2, col3 and where as second table xx_inv_tab2 has five columns col1, col2, col3, col4, col5.
    Here col2, col3, col4 are the same columns as in table1 xx_inv_tab1...
    Now I want to transfer first table data in to second table .... first column of second table holds a sequence, followed by the first table three columns data and followed with col4 and col5 which will hold NULL values....
    In my scenario, I have 70 - 75 columns in my first table which I want to move to second table which three new columns (one is sequence and other two has null values)...
    Any ideas if we make it in a simplest way rather saying insert into xx_inv_tab2 (col1, col2, col3 ............................................. col75) values (seq, col1, col2..........................col75, null, null)
    Help Appreciated..
    Thanks

    Easy
    untested
    insert into xx_inv_tab2 t2 (col1,col2,col3,col4)
    select yourSequence.nextval, t1.col1, t1.col2, t1.col3
    from xx_inv_tab1 t1
    ;Note that col5 does not need to be used, since you want to fill it with NULL.
    USe excel or sql developer to write you a list of column names, if you are to lazy to write all 75 columns by yourself.
    What might also work:
    untested
    insert into xx_inv_tab2 t2
    select yourSequence.nextval, t1.*, null
    from xx_inv_tab1 t1
