Logical Database to Query

hi experts,
Can i create a query using Logical Database?
if yes how?? Pls give an idea...
Thanks in advance.

Hi Manisha,
We can write select query on Logical Databases(LDB) as we write for our normal database. But it is not recommended to write SELECT queries on LDBs.
Genereally we use standard predefined macros for the selection from LDBs.
Hope this helps you.

Regarding Query and Logical database

Hi All,
I have one requirement to create a report which gives all selection fields of a query.I got the selection fields defined in the query,but some extra selection fields are coming from logical database,which query uses.These extra fields count is different for different queries using same logical data base.Please suggest me a solution.

Shibin

Hi Jogeswara,
Thanks for your inputs.
But my question is, how can I filter the data which is being fetched by standard logical database. I cannot go inside the std. LDB and change internal tables of it. I tried coding in extras, but I think it works only if we want to add additional fields in output.
At present, we are considering the option of creating a z LDB where we copy. std. LDB and also add the reqd. table which is not present in LDB.
Is there any other option?
Please provide your valuable inputs.

Logical database in adhoc query

Hello All,
Can anyone tell me what is the logical database in adhoc query?

Hi
When you create a query , you have to select an infoset. Infoset can be considered as a source from which data is populated in the Query Fields.
Infosets are created from Transaction SQ02.
There can be four methods through which an Infoset can become a source of data:
1. Table join ( By joining two or more tables from Data dictionary)
example: Joining tables PA0001 and PA0006 on Pernr to get a one resultant dataset
2. Direct read of Basis Table ( Like PA0001 as a source for data in Infoset )
3. Logical Database ( A Pre-written Program by SAP that extract data from clusters, tables taking care of authorizations and validity periods)
Example : Logical database PNP, PNPCE (Concurrent Employement),PCH ( LDB for Personnel Development Data)
Custom Logical DBs can be created in T_Code SE-36.
4. Data Retrieval by a Program ( Custom code written by ABAP developers which will collect and process data) . This program has a corresponding Structure in data dictionary and the fields of this structure will be used in query)
Reward Points, if helpful.

Logical database of ABAP query

Hi,
Can anybody please let me know what is the Logical database for ETXDCI, ETXDCH & ETXDCJ (Tax tables) with any sales document tables? I need to develop one ABAP query for the users.
I am a Functional person so I would like to know Can anybody please let me know how I can find out the Logical database?
Your time and help will be really appreciate.
Thanks & Regards,
Niki Shah.

Try the BRF logical database.
I found it by searching in which programs the tables were used.
It show program SAPDBBRF which is the program for logical database BRF.

ABAP query using logical database KDF is not populating custom fields

Hi Experts ,
I created two following queries
1.       VENDORCATKDF – uses KDF logical database
2.       VENDORCATLFA1 – uses table = LFA1
I’m pulling the same information in both queries:
·         Vendor Number
·         Country
·         Vendor Name
·         Vendor Category (custom fields added to LFA1)
The results for the query that uses the logical database KDF is incorrect. It doesn’t pull in the flag on the custom field LFA1-ZMRO.   Even though the logical database KDF is made up of the table LFA1 and has these fields.
Is there something that can be done – so that all of these “custom” category fields under LFA1 (such as LFA1-ZZMRO) – get pulled into queries – when we use the logical database KDF ?

Hi,
I have got the error removed by ensuring that fields from one table are a part of one line ( taking help of ruler) only. But the underlying problem remains, the output is not ALV but List output.
I do not think having additional fields in the query is reason for this.
Is it bcoz iI am adjusting the output length of columns to ensure no hierarchical error ?
Can we not have a query using LDB which is shown as SAP List?

Logical Database QNQ not working when creating a query in SQVI

Hi All,
When i try creating a Quick Viewer Query using SQVI on Logical Database QNQ, I do not get any output.
What am i doing wrong?

Hi,
The blank row that you get from your second select statement would appear at the end of the report. Put that statement first and it should be at the top of the first page

Infoset query logical database and transparent table

Hi!
We have an infoset with the data source logical database=PNP.
We get some fields from the infotype 0768, P0768-PERNR, P0768-BEGDA, etc.
Now we need add another table to make a join within infotype 0768 and table T5F99SE.
For instance, in infotype 0768 I have one record with the fields PERNR and BEGDA and in the T5F99SE I have 3 records related to the unique record of infotype 0768, the fields of the table are PERNR, BEGDA, ACTDT and ADDAT .
The fields values in the example can be:
Infotype 0768: PERNR=00101800, BEGDA=20110401, DICOT=20, BACHE=1200
Table T5F99SE: record 1 PERNR=00101800, BEGDA=20110401, ACTDT=20110401, ADDAT=PB    E
                         record 2 PERNR=00101800, BEGDA=20110101, ACTDT=20110405, ADDAT=PC    E01
                         record 3 PERNR=00101800, BEGDA=20110401, ACTDT=20110409, ADDAT=PA    E
The result we want get with infoset query is
PERNR    BEGDA   DICOT BACHE   ADDAT
00101800 20110101 20        1200       PB    E
00101800 20110101 20        1200       PC    E01
00101800 20110101 20        1200       PA    E
I would like to get the fields of the infotype and some fields of the table T5F99SE.
Is possible do this action with ABAP modifying an infoset that already exists adding the fields of the transparent table?
What should I do?
Kind regards,
Julian.

My guess is that it would not be possible to include a transparent table into the LDBs PNP and PNPCE. Would need input from a technical expert there.
However, instead of using the LDB, why don't you explore just using a direct table join? You may need to join PA0000, PA0001, PA0002 along with PA0768 and your other tables. An infoset can then be created on this table join.
To go to the mode where you can create the table join, in your infoset transactions, choose 'Table join' instead of 'LDB'.

Problem with logical database DDF in ABAP query

Hi All,
I have created an ABAP query via the transaction SQ01 using the logical database DDF to retrieve customer master data from tables KNA1 & KNB1. The selection screen used is the screen 903 of the logical database DDF. But now the problem is that when I execute the query, I am getting a blank value in the tax code4(KNA1-STCD4) field though there is value in the KNA1 table for this particular field. This field was added to the table by means of a customizing include. Can anyone suggest a way to get around this problem so that I can view the content of the field STCD4 in the query.
Thanks and regards,
Sarath.

I think it's not used by DDF.
so you must check it with:
check kna1-bran1 in s_bran1.

Addtional Structure on InfoSet query of Logical database

Hi Experts,
We have a logical database on which we are supposed to create an InfoSet query. We could create the InfoSet query and also the query on top of it.
We have a requirement to add addtional fiels which are not part of the logical database. The addtional fields are in a strucuture. I added the strucuture using the Extras option, but I need help on how to extract data from this strucuture.
Can you please help me with a sample code:
Logical Database in question is - FTI_TR_PERIODS
Structure to be included is - VTG_IRATE_STRUCTURE
Field in structure to be included is - PKOND, SKOART
As this is a structure we cannot right a select statement, and I am very new to abap and require help on how to extract data from the structure.
Thanks for your help.

SAP / ABAP Query - using logical database

Hi ,
We have a mandate to implement SAP Query using only Logical Databases (LDB ) .
We understand that there are several issues using this approach .
1 ) Paralled tables in MM need to be displayed on separate lines .
2 ) Statistics based on fields from 2 different tables cannot be produced eg: EKPO ( PO Number ) and EKKN . (Cost Center )
Please share your experiences .
Thank you in advance .

Adeel,
I do appreciate your experience and respect you for knowledge on SAP Query.
Joining tables seem simple to IT experts but not so for end users. SAP Query is an end-user tool and users seem to need a simple user-friend, drag-and-drop solution to extract information using SAP Query based on a pre-defined infoset. Various SAP conferences have been advocating the use of SAP delivered Logical Databses to create infosets in order to harness the various advantages of LDBs.
In MM there are several LDBs (e.g. ELM, EBM etc) to create queries on EKPO and EKKN. The problem arises when you use the same LDB to extract information from more than the above two tables e.g. EKPO, EKET, EKKN and EKBE. SAP expects you to display fields on multiple lines and also does not allow producing statistics based on fields from two parallel tables say EKKN and EKBE. Moreover, multi-line reports cannot be produced in the ALV/SLV format.
We are also looking for best practise solutions in providing SAP Query to MM or FI users based on SAP delivered Logical Databases.

Additional i/o fields to infoset query based on PNPCE logical database

Hi All,
I have a requirement to add two additional input and output fields "job function" and "job family" to a infoset query based on logical database PNPCE. I am new to writing code in infset query and there are so many code areas in infoset query. I am confused where to write code and how to limit the output list based on the user selection to the additional fields "Job function" and "job family". have any one done this in the past?. is there sample code somewhere to do something similar to this?
Your help will be much appreciated with points! (as per our community guidelines)

Query using logical database

Hi,
There is one query which is using logical database PNM. I have got one requirement to add one field in selection screen to filter the output. The field which is required to be displayed in selection screen to filter the data is from table mkal which is not present in logical database. Hence my question is, is it possible to add field from table which is not present in logical database? IF yes, please specify the procedure.

Re: Query for logical database

Hi Experts,
can anybody giveme any link of step-by-step how to create a query from sq03,sq02,sq01 with logical database for CIK.
if anybody have done the query for logical databse for CIK give me ur input how to create.
Thanks in advance,
KK.

Hi
Go to SQ01 -- Enviornment --Query area - select Standard area or global as you require.
Then go to Enviornment - Infoset - search for the existing infoset if available as per your requirement or create an infoset here.
Write the name of Infoset and click on create . Fill all the required field like name , logical database - CIK, press enter it will populate the structure of logical database CIK, you may include /exclude here the nodes, or keep it as it is.
And press enter.
Now you have to create Field group and the fields inside the each group.
You may create thefield group by clicking the create icone in the right hand side of teh screen and may drag the then fields by double clicking inside the group.
Please mainatin sequence as per the characteristic of the table, like first select masterdata then transactuional!
Save it. It will ask you for package, but click on local object and save it.
Go back , it will prompt for generate infoset, say yes.
Now your new infoset is coming among other infosets. (it is advisable to search for the existing infoset if available to avoide inconsistency in infosets).
Now select your infoset and assign this to user groups by clicking the tab for this, you need to select user groups for this infoset here, who will be authorised to use this query.You need to take care about the user group, as this will allow you to see your infoset at the time of query generation / display.
Save it and go back and again go back.Cross check that you are in standard query area (as selected in first step)
Now give the query name and click on create. It will show you your infoset , select that.
It will propmt you the next screen for name , no.of columns required, output formats etc.
Fill as required and go to basic list now you will have screen as SQVI and have to select your selection field and output filed. After selecting the required fileds save it and execute this .
Cheers
Mukta
