  • Want to use ldb selection screen with select queries

    I want to use ldb selection screen with select queries since ldb having performance issue .How can I use the fields of the dynamic selection of LDB in the select queries

    Hi,
    Check the code snippet below: Here 'XXXX' is the table for your select query.
      DATA L_DS_CLAUSES TYPE RSDS_WHERE.
      MOVE 'XXXX' TO L_DS_CLAUSES-TABLENAME.
      READ TABLE DYN_SEL-CLAUSES WITH KEY L_DS_CLAUSES-TABLENAME
                                 INTO L_DS_CLAUSES.
      SELECT * FROM XXXX
              WHERE field1 IN ...
               AND   field2 ....
               AND (L_DS_CLAUSES-WHERE_TAB).
          PUT XXXX.
      ENDSELECT.
    You can also try using the FM 'RS_REFRESH_FROM_DYNAMICAL_SEL' passing SY-CPROG in curr_report and 'M'  for mode to get the dynamic selection screen values.

  • Infoset Query- How do I clear the in-built selection screen in LDB

    Dear Experts,
    When LDB is used in queries unwanted selection screen blocks appear.
    Please help in getting rid of the same.
    Kind Regards
    Jogeswara Rao

    Hello Jogeswara,
    1.  In the Infoset push button Extras and then select Code tab.
    2.  Select AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT for Code Section.
    Suppose your query is based on logical database KDF and you went to hide the SELECT-OPTIONS for Company Code.
    loop at screen.
      if SCREEN-NAME = '%_KD_BUKRS_%_APP_%-TEXT' OR
         SCREEN-NAME = '%_KD_BUKRS_%_APP_%-OPTI_PUSH' OR
         SCREEN-NAME = '%_KD_BUKRS_%_APP_%-TO_TEXT' OR
         SCREEN-NAME = '%_KD_BUKRS_%_APP_%-VALU_PUSH' OR
         SCREEN-NAME = 'KD_BUKRS-LOW' OR
         SCREEN-NAME = 'KD_BUKRS-HIGH'.
        screen-invisible = '1'.
        screen-active = '0'.
        modify screen.
      endif.
    endloop.

  • Want to have own selection screen  in HR-ABAP report using LDB

    Hi experts,
            I am working on HR-ABAP report using LDB pnp and infotypes..But, here we get the built in selection criterion..but I want my own selection screen to be displayed..whats the solution for this??? Is it possible to create my own selection screen instead of default one..and how???
    Please help me..its very urgent..

    Hi,
    chk this out:
    Create Report Categories                                                                               
    In this step, you define the report categories and determine the layout
       of the standard selection screen for these report categories. You can 
       create report categories for programs or queries that are based on the
       PNP or PNPCE logical databases.                                                                               
    The definition of report categories is divided into two sections:                                                                               
    o   In the Change Report Category view, you define general attributes 
           such as sort order, input fields for date, and so on.                                                                               
    o   In the Change Selection Criteria view, you define which selection 
           fields of the logical database should be avaliable on the selection
           screen.                                                                               
    Example                                                                               
    You want to set up your system so that your employees can only start  
       evaluation reports for Payroll if they use a payroll area. Within a   
       payroll area, you should be able to select according to personnel     
       number. Additional selection criteria should not be possible and you  
       should not be allowed to enter a sort sequence.                       
    Standard settings                                                                               
    The standard system already contains report categories. You can find the 
    attributes of the report categories in the table.                                                                               
    Note the following five report categories in particular:                                                                               
    o   Report category ' ' is the SAP default report category for     
        programs that are based on the PNP logical database.                                                                               
    o   Report category PNPCE is the SAP default category for programs that  
        are based on the PNPCE logical database.                                                                               
    o   Report category '00000000' is the customer-specific default category 
        for programs that are based on the PNP logical database.                                                                               
    o   Report category '0PNPCE' is the customer-specific default category   
        for programs that are based on the PNPCE logical database.                                                                               
    o   Report category __X2001 is the default category for Queries  that    
        are based on an InfoSet of the PNP LDB.                                                                               
    o   Report category QUEPNPCE is the default category for queries that    
        are based on an InfoSet of the PNPCE LDB.                                                                               
    The default report categories are used when a report is called if    
        the report has not been assigned a report category.                  
    Parameters and Options for Report Categories of the LDB PNP and PNPCE  
    Parameters and Options in Screen Area General Data                     
       If you activate this parameter, you can only enter data on the data
       selection period if you use reports that have been assigned. The   
       same date entries are then used for the person selection as for the
       date selection.                                                                               
    o   Matchcode allowed                                                  
       If you activate this parameter, you have use of a Matchcode        
       pushbutton (search help) if you use reports that have been assigned.
       This pushbutton enables you to perform the person selection.                                                                               
    o   Sort allowed                                                       
       If you activate this parameter, you have use of a Sort pushbutton if
       you use report that have been assigned. This pushbutton enables you
       to define a sort order before you execute the report.                                                                               
    o   Organizational structure allowed                                   
       If you activate this parameter, you have use of an Org.Structure   
       pushbutton if you use reports that have been assigned. This        
       pushbutton enables you to perform the person selection.            
       Note:                                                              
       For more information about these options, see the online           
       documentation under this path:

       Management -> Standard HR Reports -> Report Selection Screen in    
       Human Resources Management.                                                                               
    Parameters and Options in Screen Areas Data Selection Period/Person    
    Selection Period/Payroll Area/Period/Year                                                                               
    o   Options for data selection period and person selection period (key 
        date and so on)                                                    
        Here you define which options for date and person selection are    
        available for reports that have been assigned.                                                                               
    o   Options for payroll area/period/year                               
        Here you define which options for selection using payroll          
        area/period/year are available for reports that have been assigned.                                                                               
    Parameters and Options in Screen Area Selection View                                                                               
    o   Type/Name                                                          
        This parameter enables you to use selection views to define report 
        categories. You use the selection view selected here to determine  
        which fields are available in the Dynamic Selectionsy.                                                                               
    Note:                                                              
        You create selection views for the PNP and PNPCE logical databases 
        in the Object Navigator (SE80):                                    
        1. Start the Object Navigator (SE80)                               
        2. Choose Workbench -> Edit Object.

        When you enter the table name, observe the naming convention in    
        Personnel Administration:                                          
        Infotype number: nnnn -> table name: PAnnnn                        
        8. Choose Continue.                                                
        9. In the Functional groups area, define functional groups by      
        assigning a name and a number.                                     
        10. Assign fields from the selected tables to the functional groups
        by entering the number of the desired functional group in front of 
        each field.                                                        
        11. Save your entries.

    3.  Select the For the PNPCE logical database checkbox, if you want to     
        create a report category for a program or for queries of the PNPCE     
        logical database.                                                                               
    4.  In the General Data screen area, choose the desired options.           
        If you want to use selection IDs, you must have first created and      
        grouped selection Ids. The IMG path to do this is given in the         
        parameter description section.                                                                               
    5.  In the Data selection period/person selection period or Selection      
        period screen area, choose the desired options.

    12. Select the checkbox in the 1.page column, if you want this selection   
        field to be available directly when you call the selection screen.                                                                               
    Further notes                                                                               
    13. If you want to copy entries, you still have to enter the selection     
        parameters again in the subsequent screen.                                                                               
    o   If you create the report category '000000000', a selection screen is   
        generated according to report category '00000000'for all reports for   
        which a report category has not explicitly been assigned.                                                                               
    Assign Report Categories                                                                               
    In this step, you assign a report category to your reports.                                                                               
    Example                                                                               
    You have created your own report, for example ZPCTEST1, and would like
        it to have the selection screen that corresponds to that of the       
        evaluation report for Payroll, which is assigned to report category   
        '__M00001'.                                                           
        Assign report category '__M00001' to the report.                                                                               
    Requirements                                                                               
    You must have defined the Report Categories.                                                                               
    Standard settings                                                                               
    SAP Standard Reports:                                                                               
    In the standard system, reports are assigned a report category. If you
        want to override these assignments, perform the activities described  
        here. If you want to assign report categories to standard reports using
        SE38, this represents a modification.                                                                               
    Customer-Specific Reports:                                                                               
    For reports you have developed yourself, you can either assign report 
        categories by performing the activities described here or directly in SE38.
    Recommendation                                                                               
    Only assign a report category if you have created your own reports or if  
    the selection screens in the standard system do not meet your             
    requirements.                                                                               
    Activities                                                                               
    1.  Choose Edit -> New entries.                                                                               
    2.  Perform the required assignment using the Program name and Report     
       category fields.                                                                               
    3.  Save your entries.

  • ABAP Query Using LDB

    Hello Frn's
    I need to develop a abap Query using LDB , for this a Infoset is allready created , which uses PNPCE LDB .
    Below i am Descrbing the scenerio , for which we need to develop the query ....
    Dept/Div Transfer
    Employees who transferred dept or division within specified date range:
    EmpID
    Last Name, First Name
    Date of transfer
    New department
    New division
    Current supervisor
    Old department
    Old division
    How can i fitler out the data of our requirment ... because i want to use same infoset in diffrent query .
    Please provide some solution
    Thanks and Regards..
    Priyank Dixit

    Hi Priyank,
    First you need to check whether all the required fields are available there in the LDB PNPCE(I guess you are using the same).
    I think old department, old division must not be available there. Then you need to add it in your Infoset and write custom code for these fields. Once you are done with custom coding, you can use this infoset for creating queries.
    Use trnx SQ02 to create queries, either SAP or Infoset.
    Hope it helps. Let me know if you need some more help.

  • Using PCH LDB

    Hi Experts......
        Here is my requirement...............
       We have a report which retrieves the data basing on Company Code. i.e., when u give Comp. Code and Date in selection screen... it retrieves the Org. Units assigned to that comp. code and then the positions assigned to those Org. units and then the employees who are assigned to those positions.
    Present we are retrieving the data using Select queries.. Can we retrieve the same using LDB PCH?
    Thanking you in advance...
    Regards,
    Sree.

    Hi Seenu,
    There are some infotypes which are shared by some other logical database.
    You need a report like infotype 0024 is shared by PAP  and PNPCE  so as there are some infotypes which are shared by other infotypes as well.
    Infotype 0001 Organizational Assignment will fullfill your purpose
    When you create the Infoset with logical database PNPCE you have the option to select all the personnel administration infotype as well as infotype of the related Objects Thats why you can access the data from HRP tables as well.
    Warm REgards,

  • Could I have CASE or IF statement in FMS queries?

    Is it possible to have case statements in FMS queries:
    For example:
    SELECT T0.[U_DepoistfeeON] case
          when T0.[U_DepoistfeeON] is NOT BLANK  then $[$38.111.160]='Deposit Fee'
          when T0.[U_DepoistfeeON] is BLANK  then  then $[$38.111.160]=BLANK
    end FROM OITM T0
    What is wrong with above query please? Thank you very much.
    I do not mind even if above query is doable with an IF statement in it.

    Hi Rahul, this is what I want -
    I have a user defined field attached to item master OITM. The field is called : U_DepoistfeeON
    The above field contains additional depositFee taxes for selling beer bottles.
    I have also created a new tax as part of Freight handling. While on Sales Order screen, the Freight (unhide first through forms field) drop down can have the new tax type selected automatically "Deposit Fee".
    Thus, if the line item is of beer type that has U_DepositfeeON, then Freight field should automaticlally pick the type "Deposit Fee".
    If U_DepositfeeON is zero then I would like the Freight field on Sales Order screen ($38.111.160) set to blank.
    I tried to achieve this through following using case statement.
    select T0.U_DepoistfeeON
    from oitm t0
    case
    when T0.U_DepoistfeeON 0
    then $http://$38.111.160='Deposit Fee'
    when T0.U_DepoistfeeON = 0
    then $http://$38.111.160=''
    else
    $http://$38.111.160=''
    end;
    Of course it doesn't work. Note: I know I typed in DepoistfeeON, the error is not due to that.
    Thanks.

  • How to Dene a Data Link Between Queries: Bind Variables

    This is an interesting topic and I cannot get it to work using Bind Variables.
    I have 2 queries: Q1 and Q2. Q2 needs c_id, account_code and account_type from Q1.
    Whe I run the data template below, I get only the data for Q1.
    Now people may argue that there is no data in Q2 for the relevant clause. So if I even remove the where clause in Q2 I still get no joy i.e Data appears for Q1 but not for Q2

  • How to use one WAD template for all the available queries

    Hi,
    I have created a WAD template... Now we have close to 25 queries which will use that template for displaying their output at Portal...
    Is there any way that i don`t have to create multiple copies of my WAD template...
    I.e. all queries would call that same template through portal...

    Hi,
    The Bex report uses the Standard Template 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN while it is executed.
    So if your sure that the look and feel of all the Reports is going to remain same, you don't need to even attach all these Queries to Templates in WAD.
    When you execute the BEx query, it would pick up the standard template and run it in portal.
    But if you want to customize the Report Template:
    1) You can change this standard template 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN  and customize it according to ur requrement in WAD.
    2) Or you can create a copy of this standard template and change it as required. Then change the template in spro (transaction RSCUSTV27) to point to this Z template.
    Let me know if you need more details.

  • Error while Activating / running Bex queries/reports

    Hello
    I have following ERRORs while activating / running BEx reports/queries.
    1. While Activating BEx reports, I keel getting following ERRORS
    Object directory entry R3TR ELEM E341OIR6G715GUMGN0MRXP3MA does not exist
    Error when activating element BX7FOOKQB4588RROCBTC2YVZN
    BEx transport request 'BIDK901352' is not available or not suitable
    2. While running the BEx report/query in Bex Analyzer, I'm getting ERROR in entering the parameters, its NOT allowing / giving me option to select the parameters, for example for 0COSTCENTER, it is NOT displaying list costcenters to select before I can RUN that particular report.
    3. How can I trouble shoot ERRORs related to BEx and Portal connectivity.
    4. How would I setup the Variants for a Bex query/report ? Are these Variants for per user basis / per report basis. Can I have each variant for particular users OR all users must select their own variant each time when they RUN the report ? 
    Thanks, Sorry I have asked multiple questions, in jst one thread.
    BI

    Goto SE03 -->Search for Objects in Requests/Tasks  option , select the object type and execute it will give all the transports it has collected before ..
    Also you can use transport connection in RSA1 and select the query and find out all the objects in query locked by what request etc ..
    Thanks,
    Ravi

  • Error while transporting Queries

    Hi,
    I am getting this error while transporting queries!!
    Object '!ZTIC_UKA' (ELEM) of type 'Query' is not available in version 'A'
    Message no. RSO252
    Diagnosis
    You wanted to generate an object with the name '!ZTIC_UKA' (in transport request ELEM) of type 'Query' (TLOGO). This is, however, not available in the BW Repository database. It does not exist in the requested version A. If the version is 'D' then it is possible that an error arose during the delivery or installation. If the version is 'A' then the Object was either not created or not activated.
    System Response
    The object was not taken into account in the next stage of processing
    Thanks

    Hi Murali,
    YOu are trying to transport the element ZTIC_UKA'  of the query,may be an variable  which is not colelcted in the request.
    Try to transport the query through RSA1> Transport connection->Query-->give you query name -->Drag and Drop to Right hand side  and Click on collect all dependent objects and check whetehr they have collected in the same request.Make sure ur variables are collected.
    Tranport it now and Check.

  • Problem using DECODE() function with a Query of Queries

    I
    posted
    on my blog about an issue I was having trying to use the PL/SQL
    DECODE() function with a Coldfusion Query of Queries. This function
    works fine when you query a database for information. However, when
    you query another query, it seems that CF doesn't recognize it. I
    got errors stating that it found a left parenthesis where it
    expected a FROM key word. Here is a simplified version of what I am
    trying to do:
    quote:
    <!--- Simulated query; similar to what I was calling from
    my database --->
    <cfscript>
    qOriginal = queryNew("Name,Email,CountryCode",
    "VarChar,VarChar,VarChar");
    newRow = queryAddRow(qOriginal, 5);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "Name", "Joe", 1);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "Email", "[email protected]", 1);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "CountryCode", "AMER", 1);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "Name", "Sally", 2);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "Email", "[email protected]", 2);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "CountryCode", "AMER", 2);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "Name", "Bob", 3);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "Email", "[email protected]", 3);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "CountryCode", "ASIA", 3);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "Name", "Mary", 4);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "Email", "[email protected]", 4);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "CountryCode", "EURO", 4);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "Name", "John", 5);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "Email", "[email protected]", 5);
    querySetCell(qOriginal, "CountryCode", "EURO", 5);
    </cfscript>
    <cfquery name="qCountries" dbtype="query">
    SELECT DISTINCT(CountryCode) AS CountryCode,
    DECODE(states, "AMER", "North America &amp; Canada",
    "EURO", "Europe &amp; Africa", "ASIA", "Japan &amp;
    Asia","") CountryName
    FROM qOriginal
    ORDER BY CountryCode
    </cfquery>
    <cfdump var="#qCountries#">
    <!--- ========== END OF CODE ========== --->
    So running this returned the following error:
    Query Of Queries syntax error.
    Encountered "(. Incorrect Select Statement, Expecting a
    'FROM', but encountered '(' instead, A select statement should have
    a 'FROM' construct.
    Does anybody know why this doesn't work? Is it just not
    supported? Please note that I have also tried to use the CASE()
    function instead of DECODE() and that resulted in basically the
    same error. For now I an looping over my distinct query with a
    switch statement and manually loading a new query with the data how
    I want it. But it would be a lot cleaner and less code to have the
    DECODE() to work. Thx!

    DECODE() is an Oracle function, not generic SQL. Q-of-Q is a
    very limited subset of SQL and lacks many functions and clauses
    available in standard SQL, especially what you may be used to using
    in your particular RDBMS.

    of Queries user guide
