Is index helpful for "group by"?

In an application a statement is executed:
SELECT a b c d MAX(e) SUM(f) FROM my_db_tab
GROUP BY a b c d.
Does it make sense to add an index to my_db_tab for the fields a, b, c and d?
Context: The ABAP is generated so I can not change it. my_db_tab contains approx. 8.000.000 records. The run-time for this command is about 20 minutes. my_db_table is now searched sequentially.

hmmm, your DB table has 8.000.000 entries.
What do you want to select, without where-condition you will select all records, this seems quite impossible to me as no internal table will be able to hold 8 Mio records (if a b c and d are not only one character fields).
=> Is there a where condition? Usually the where condition would determine the index used. The group by does not influence it much.
=> No where, despite the huge number, what is it good for? Group by is used for display, who wants to see 8.000.000 records?
Anyway, if you read no 8.000.000 but still many, then a full table scan is better than an index scan. The database access each table block once with full table scan. If it follows the index it will come to each block several times, and for a large table, not all blocks will stay in the cache, so blocks are loaded several times, which makes the index access even slower than the full table scan.
=> no index

Index questions for GROUP BY

1. I have a group by query 'select max(trackingnumber) from xxx group by dsltn'
What am I supposed to index on, so as to make the query faster - trackingnumber or dsltn.
2. Also if the query has multiple columns in the group by list
Eg :- 'select max(trackingnumber) from xxx group by dsltn, vpi, vci'
..what should be the nature of the index. Should I create a composite index
( like create index x_index on xxx(dsltn, vpi, vci ) )

Oracle 10g:
Does having index help when doing query by "group by"?
For eg: select aa, count(*) from B group by aa

ErickG wrote:
Hello,
as yo used count(*) a full table scan will be performed. If you use a col1 that was indexed,
like col1 for a count, not group by, an index scan will be performed, but be carefull if there
is no null in table col1, the amount will be incorrect.
RegardsSo I didn't understand that null col will destroy the count. Also why wouldn't having index help when doing group by?

How to Enhance search help for product groups. Currently no ability to add multiple lines from result list

Hi All,
In CRM Web UI, there is no multi selection option for product group id f4 help for Custmer event creation or edit screen under “Product” tab=> Product Group ID field.
Web UI Component Details -
UI component : TPMOE
View : TPMOE/ProductEOL
Context: PRODUCT Attribute : -PRODUCT_GRUOP
Click on Product Group ID field then below F4 Help screen appears.
In the product group results list, user can select only one row and Then all the product will be queried for selected product group, transferred to product list tab.
Current technical design for Product Group F4:
a) SE11 Data Dictionary search help “CRM_MKTPL_PGRP1” is used and data is fetched displayed based it( Refer method GET_V_PRODUCT_GROUP of context node class CL_TPMOE_PRODUCTEOL_CN00)
b) In UI, F4 pop up is handled by UI Framework in SAP generic manner so no multi selection is allowed.
c) A round trip event is triggered after selection of row from results which reload view with queried product result based group selected.
Requirement :-
In the product group F4 results list View, user should be able to select multiple row .As SAP GUI has the option of multiple entry selection from search help window with the help of field called MULTISEL.
System should query for products with all selected product group, transferred to product list tab.
Note: - The multi select options works fine for GUI, but for UI standard SAP code ignores this or never is this structure taken into consideration. Standard class to display F4 help on UI is CL_THTMLB_F4HELP.
Can we enforce same behavior like DDIC search help in Web UI too Or suggest how we can achieve this requirement?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Arjun

Hello All,
We have achieved this requirement by Custom development and approach followed as -
Define UI object model zprgrp & zprgrpquery and object relationship in table ZCRM_OBJTAB
Query Strcuture : ZCRMST_PRGRP_SEARCH & Result List structure : ZCRMST_PRGRP_RESULT
Created Custom component : ZPRGRP with Search /Result view and with GENIL Class, search logic
Defined custom ComponentUsage “ProductGroup1SearchHelp” for ZPRGRP in Standard Component TPMOE
e. Called F4 application for field product _group with help component usage created in step d.

F4 help for Code groups while creating a notification.

Hi all,
We are using Exit QQMA0015 to filter the code groups for object parts, Damage, Causes and Activities based on the Z table.
Our requirement is based on Object Parts, we want to restrict f4 help for Damage and then based on Object Parts and Damage we want to restrict f4 help for Causes and so on for Activities based on the Z table . And we are going to maintain multiple values for one Object Part.
For e.g. If we have two entries for Damage code group in z table based on the Object Part, then both these code groups should be shown on f4 help of Damage. So we want to pass multiple code groups from the Z table
We are facing an issue like the export parameter E_codegruppe is an variable and hence we can pass only one value. So in the loop we are trying to pass both the values to the table T_RIWO020TAB and in the exit this table is getting filled with the values we want.
But once we are out of exit the standard table G_RIWO020TAB in the FUNCTION'CATALOGUE_SELECTION' is having values as per standard configuration and we are not able to get the values we want.
Please suggest on the above mentioned requirement. This will be really helpful for us.
Thanks & Regards,

Providing online Help for Flex-based applications

I have been asked to provide online Help for a Flex application. As I have never done this before, I have a few questions:
- What is the format for the Help topics?
- Are there control-type files (e.g., TOC, index, project file) that need to be created? If so, what is the format for these?
- Is the Help compiled? If so, which compiler is used?
- How is context-sensitive Help created?
I'd also like to know if there are any resources I could look at that covers these Help issues. Thanks.

Hi,
You can acheive the same by the addition of [USER-COMMAND fcode].
RADIOBUTTON GROUP group [USER-COMMAND fcode] - The addition USER-COMMAND can be used to assign a function code fcode to the first parameter in a radio button group. The function code fcode must be specified directly, and have a maximum length of 20 characters. When the user selects any radio button of the radio button group on the selection screen, the runtime environment triggers the event AT SELECTION-SCREEN and transfers the function code fcode to the component ucomm of the interface work area sscrfields.
So you code should be altered as
PARAMETERS: rb_appl RADIOBUTTON GROUP rad
                     USER-COMMAND radclick    "Addition which you have to make.
                     DEFAULT 'X',
            rb_pres RADIOBUTTON GROUP rad ,
            p_file   TYPE ibipparms-path.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_file.
IF rb_appl = 'X'.
    PERFORM f_applictn_server_filenm.
ELSEIF rb_pres = 'X'.
    PERFORM f_presentation_filenm.
ENDIF.

F4 help for a field in module pool

Hello Experts,
I need to provide f4 help on field sales office(VKBUR) in my module pool program.
I have searched forums about it. but all forum contains either doc. no or customers etc.
these field are directly available on table, so very easy to find.
But for sales office, how can i provide f4 help. there is no straight entries in tables like for this company code this sales office.
so its getting difficult for me to provide help.
so if anybody know the solution plz help, and if anyone know table where all sales offices are stored, i will be thankful.
Thanks,
Amar

Hi amar_war,
use screen painter to edit the screen layout where the field VKBUR is on. Double click the field to get the details screen. Here you can attach a search help to the field.
H_TVBUR has no more parameters, it will display a list of al sales offices with description text
H_TVBVK will also show the sales group, if VKGRP is a screen field, it will restrict the result list automatically on matching VKGRP.
H_TVKBZ has also VKORG VTWEG SPART - it will take those values from screen if filled.
If you are not satisfied with the results, you can easily create your own search help using own selection method and own search help exits if required.
Try standard search help for standard field first.
You can create a copy of VKBUR as ZVKBUR and attach search help there, you can create your own screen structure and attach the search help there - 50 ways to get your search help...

F4 HELP for standard field..

i want to put F4 help for standard field FERTH in mm01 and mm02 ...
is there any way to put F4 help for this field..

try this
1. First go to SE11 and create your own search help( if you dont know how to create a search help please feel free to ask me, it is very easy).
2. Now in your module pool program program go to the layout of your screen.
3. Now when you see the attributes of this field in the Dict tab you will find the field Search Help. Now here you can specify the name of the search help you created in SE11.
There is also another mehtod to create the dynamic search help. eg:- in a posted document data get the Document nos related to that company code.
The sample code is like this:-
First of all declare the module below in the flow logic of your screen then create it in your main program.
You declare the module in the PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST.
PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST.
FIELD TXT_DOCNO MODULE VALUE_BELNR.
You also need to create an internal table where you wil store results of the select query fired below in the module.
here you will get a F4 help on the filed Document Number(TXT_DOCNO) based on the field Company code (TXT_CODCO)
MODULE VALUE_BELNR INPUT.
progname = sy-repid.
dynnum = sy-dynnr.
CLEAR: field_value, dynpro_values.
field_value-fieldname = 'TXT_CODCO'.
APPEND field_value TO dynpro_values.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST'
EXPORTING
tabname = 'BKPF'
fieldname = 'BUKRS'
dynpprog = progname
dynpnr = dynnum
dynprofield = 'TXT_CODCO'.
CALL FUNCTION 'DYNP_VALUES_READ'
EXPORTING
dyname = progname
dynumb = dynnum
translate_to_upper = 'X'
TABLES
dynpfields = dynpro_values.
READ TABLE dynpro_values INDEX 1 INTO field_value.
SELECT BUKRS BELNR
FROM BKPF
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_doc1
WHERE BUKRS = field_value-fieldvalue.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
EXPORTING
retfield = 'BELNR'
dynpprog = progname
dynpnr = dynnum
dynprofield = 'TXT_BELNR'
value_org = 'S'
TABLES
value_tab = it_doc1.
ENDMODULE. " VALUE_BELNR INPUT
