Oracle Procedure returning more number of records

Hi,
I have created an Oracle Procedure which is supposed to fetch a record as per the input parameter passed.
The core query in the procedure is as below -
SELECT DISTINCT col1 FROM my_tab WHERE col2 = 'Input parameter'
Few of the input parms (col2) has more number of records (col1) and so the procedure gives an error like -
'ORA-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows'
Could you please let me know how can I modify the procedure so that it would return more number of records as the case may be?
Thank you!

It still gives me the same error when it encounters more than one output.Yes, I'm sure it does.
But we can't tell you how to fix it because we don't know what you want.
What's the purpose of the procedure?
Is it to "spell check" the name of an intermediary? If so, you'll need to figure out what to do when you have more then one person with the same name.
You can add AND ROWNUM = 1. Or perhaps you can trap the too_many_rows exception.
Your procedure doesn't return anything (no out variables). Is that correct?
Or is the purpose of the procedure to return the ID of the matching name?

How to return more than one record through OUT parameter in procedure

Hi,
I want to create a procedure which accepts one input and returns more than one record as output.
example:
Input = DeptNo
Output= Empno,ename,sal,comm,job
Scenario:
There can be more than one employee in department we pass as the IN parameter. OUT parameter has to return all the records of the corresponding employee details in that department.
Thanks in advance for your help

-- I think you can try something like this using ref cursor:
-- create a package for the type ref cursor and execute
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE PACK_REFCURSOR_FOR_TABLES AS
     TYPE DATA_TableRows IS REF CURSOR;
END;
-- after executing the package above, create your procedure:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE GET_EMP (
     IN_nDeptNo IN number,
     OUT_Emp OUT PACK_REFCURSOR_FOR_TABLES.DATA_TableRows)
IS
BEGIN
-- leave query open (implicit) as this will return data
     OPEN OUT_Emp FOR
     SELECT *
     FROM tblEmp
     WHERE DeptNo = IN_nDeptNo;
END;
--execute the procedure and you're done

Can oracle function return more than one value

Hi All
please answer can oracle function return more than one value
need one schenario
regards

Can any function, irrespective of the language, return multiple values?
OF COURSE NOT!!
So why do you think Oracle will now suddenly do it differently than all other languages? Never mind that it is impossible for a function (a unit/module of code) returning a memory address, to return multiple memory addresses. The machine code that does that, has not been yet been designed/implemented.
I am continually amazed that this question is asked. It is about something so fundamental in almost every single 3rd and 4th generation language... something that is taught right at the start... the definition of what a procedure and what a function is.
Sorry, but I simply cannot pull punches on this subject and smooth it over. There is something fundamentally wrong with your training as a programmer if you have to ask such a question about a function.
And whatever programming skills you build on such a foundation, will be seriously lacking.
I kindly suggest that you get back to the very basics of programming - and review and revisit until you fully understand it. There are no shortcuts in becomming a good programmer.

Extracting more number of records than present number in Infoprovider

Hi Frnds,
i have one doubt about data extraction.
here in my scenario i have one DSO & Infocube in modeling .
Source DSO for Data extraction :
DSO is having 10 fields in design .
2 are Key fields
8 are Data fields
& we have enabled some navigation attributes of those key fields in DSO.
target Infocube for data loading :
4 keyfigure & rest all are characteristics designed in Dimension properly
DSO --> Cube loading :
Source DSO is having 10 records when i triggered loading it is extracting more that 10 records .
when i check the records in Debugging it is showing more that 10 records because of DSO keyfields & navigation attribute combination .
it is forming more number records than original 10 records.
i don't know whether is it right or wrong ?
example here i am giving:
if we assume source DSO is having only one record but it is extracting 4 records with the same key.
0MATERIAL   0PLANT   KEYFIGURE1   KEYFIGURE2
100                4000       10                     20
In extraction it is showing as below
0MATERIAL   0PLANT   0MATERIAL_NAVIGATIONATTRIBUE KEYFIGURE1 KEYFIGURE2
100                4000        XXXX                                                     10                    20
100                4000        YYYY                                                     10                    20
100                4000        ZZZZ                                                     10                    20
100                4000        ZYZY                                                     10                    20
my question is why it is extracing 4 records ? ( why it is taking navigation attribute values in extraction .

Hello,
Check OSS Note 1145673
Steps to be performed:
1. Apply the OSS note in the dev system
2. OSS note might de-activate the transformation and DTP.
3. Note down the transformation and DTP which gets de-activated because of this OSS note.
4. Also send out a mail to BW community saying you are gonna apply this OSS note and ask them to check thier objects whether it is getting impacted by this oss note or not.
5. Ask everyone to check the data load and the data is getting populated or not.
6. Apply OSS note in QA and production. Also before applying the OSS in QA and production collect the objects which are getting impacted by this note in dev.
7. After applying the oss note in QA, send the collected Transforamtions and DTPs to the QA and do a test in QA as well.
8. Finally apply the oss note in production and transport the impacted transformations and DTP in production.

Issue with IN parameter of Oracle Procedure returning two RefCursors...

Hi all,
I'm having a nightmare with an Oracle procedure that takes one input parameter and returns two RefCursors as outputs. I recently got help in this forum getting a procedure to work that took no inputs but returned two refcursors and that's still working fine. So, for my current issue I have a procedure defined as follows:
PROCEDURE getQueueInfo(domainKey char, importQueues OUT ODPNet.refcur, exportQueues OUT ODPNet.refcur) IS
BEGIN
    OPEN importQueues FOR SELECT
    source_key, source_applid,
    import_status(source_key) as status,
    time_added, time_processed
    FROM wm_import_source_header
    WHERE source_id = domainKey
    ORDER BY source_key DESC;
    OPEN exportQueues FOR SELECT
    h.source_key, d.source_applid,
    export_status(h.source_key) as status,
    d.source_wire_code, d.destination_wire_code, h.time_added,
    h.time_transmitted
    FROM wm_export_source_header h, wm_export_source_data d
    WHERE h.source_key = d.source_key
      and d.source_id = domainKey
    ORDER BY h.source_key DESC;
END getQueueInfo;This is defined within a package called ODPNet as with my previous procedure and all works fine (I can execute within Oracle SQL Developer and it returns the expected results). Within my .NET application my code is as follows:
            try
                using (OracleConnection conn = new OracleConnection(connString))
                using (OracleCommand comm = new OracleCommand())
                    comm.CommandText = "ODPNet.getQueueInfo";
                    comm.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
                    comm.Connection = conn;
                    OracleParameter domainKey = new OracleParameter();
                    OracleParameter importQueues = new OracleParameter();
                    OracleParameter exportQueues = new OracleParameter();
                    domainKey.OracleDbType = OracleDbType.Char;
                    importQueues.OracleDbType = OracleDbType.RefCursor;
                    exportQueues.OracleDbType = OracleDbType.RefCursor;
                    domainKey.Value = "UKBD72";
                    domainKey.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input;
                    importQueues.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
                    exportQueues.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
                    comm.Parameters.Add(domainKey);
                    comm.Parameters.Add(importQueues);
                    comm.Parameters.Add(exportQueues);
                    conn.Open();
                    comm.ExecuteNonQuery();
                    OracleDataReader dr1 = ((OracleRefCursor)importQueues.Value).GetDataReader();
                    OracleDataReader dr2 = ((OracleRefCursor)exportQueues.Value).GetDataReader();
                    if (dr1.HasRows)
                        while (dr1.Read())
                            result6 += dr1["source_applid"].ToString() + "<br>";
                    else
                        result6 += "No Rows";
                    if (dr2.HasRows)
                        while (dr2.Read())
                            result7 += dr2["source_applid"].ToString() + "<br>";
                    else
                        result7 += "No Rows";
            catch (Exception ex)
                result6 = ex.ToString();
            }The value I want to submit as the IN parameter of the procedure is "UKBD72". but I'm really not sure how to apply this and then return my two refcursors into separate datareaders (except for the input parameter stuff the code above is exactly what I did with the other procedure that returned two ref cursors and still works fine). When I run this code I get no errors, I just get told that each DataReader has no rows returned, which shouldn't be right.
Any help with this would be hugely appreciated.
Cheers,
Seb

Sorry folks, after staring at this over and over, eventually going to sleep and coming back to it with some fresh eyes I realised I was just being a complete idiot - I was feeding the procedure different data in the .NET app than I was when testing in Oracle SQL Developer. Low and behold once I gave it the right data it worked!
Silly me...

Returning the number of records retrieved by a query

Hi everyone,
I did a search on this question, but I'm still unclear as to why it's so difficult to retrieve the number of records returned by a query.
What is the easiest and most straight-foward way ?
Thanks,
Bob

Shay
I am confused. I still do not know how to achieve the count of records retrieved in a block. I have viewed the viewlet calculated field demo. I am unclear of what you were refering to when you said use the count as the function.
I did try setting function to be "get_block_property('myblock',query_hits)", but this always had value of zero. But I do not think this is what you meant.
Has anybody been able to answer the original question?

Create Store Procedure to Count Number of records in Database for each table

Hello,
I have created the code which counts the number of records for each table in database. However, I want create store procedure for this code this code that when ever use execute the Store Procedure can provide the database name to execute it and as a result
table will display number of records in each table.
Below you will find the code its working:
CREATE
TABLE #TEMPCOUNT
(TABLENAME
NVARCHAR(128),
RECORD_COUNT BIGINT)
-- Creating a TEMP table
EXEC
sp_msforeachtable
'insert #tempcount select ''?'', count(*) from ? with (nolock)'
SELECT
* FROM
#TEMPCOUNT
ORDER
BY TABLENAME
DROP
TABLE #TEMPCOUNT
This code need to be convert in store procedure and user can give database name when execute the procedure in order to count the records.
Looking forward for your support.
Thanks.
SharePoint_Consultant_EMEA

Something like:
set quoted_identifier off
go
create procedure usp_TableCounts
@DBName as varchar(1000)
as
set nocount on
declare @SQLToExecute varchar(1000)
CREATE TABLE #TEMPCOUNT (TABLENAME NVARCHAR(128), RECORD_COUNT BIGINT) -- Creating a TEMP table
set @SQLToExecute = @DBName + ".dbo.sp_msforeachtable 'insert into #tempcount select ''?'', count(*) from ? with (nolock)'"
print @SQLToExecute
exec (@SQLToExecute)
SELECT * FROM #TEMPCOUNT
ORDER BY TABLENAME
DROP TABLE #TEMPCOUNT

ABAP query not returning correct number of records

Hi,
I have created an ABAP Query using logical database VFV and nodes VBRK, VBUK and VBRP.
But, after entering values for Sales Organisation ( VBRK-VKORG ), Distribution channel ( VBRK-VTWEG ) and Date ( VBRK-FKDAT), the number of records that I get are very less in number as compared to the actual number in the database.
Please give some pointers to the reason. I have set Lines 60 and Columns length - 83 and selected ALV List.

Query not returning correct number of records

Hi Guys,
Can someone please tell me why this query is not retrieving the correct number of records.
I have a table with six users
FIRST_NAME          LAST_NAME
David               Robert
Martin               Fisher
Henry               Robert King
Edmund               Tomkinson
Williams          Hayes Robert
Tina               Belkins
When I run a query, SELECT * FROM USERS WHERE LAST_NAME LIKE 'Robert';
I only get 1 record back (David Robert). Is the space between the last name
causing this? If yes, How can I rewite the query?

show a copy-paste example of your query...
you need to use a wild card with LIKE, as in
SQL> create table test
2 (first_name varchar2(50)
3 ,last_name varchar2(50)
4 );
Table created.
SQL>
SQL> insert into test values ('David' , 'Robert'           );
1 row created.
SQL> insert into test values ('Martin', 'Fisher'           );
1 row created.
SQL> insert into test values ('Henry' , 'Robert King'      );
1 row created.
SQL> insert into test values ('Edmund', 'Tomkinson'        );
1 row created.
SQL> insert into test values ('Williams', 'Hayes Robert');
1 row created.
SQL> insert into test values ('Tina', 'Belkins');
1 row created.

But problem is for the same data procedure is inserting less records, when i recomplie the procedure it began to insert correct number of data.
I wonder whether is environment issue or something else? Please advise if any one faced such type problem.

FOR ALL ENTRIES not returning correct number of records

Hi,
I have the following code: -
SELECT vbelv                                     "Delivery
         posnv                                     "Delivery Item

         INTO TABLE t_gr
         FROM vbfa
         FOR ALL ENTRIES IN t_deliveries
         WHERE vbelv   EQ t_deliveries-vbeln
           AND posnv   EQ t_deliveries-posnr
           AND vbtyp_n EQ c_goods_receipt.
The internal table t_deliveries has a single entry. The table VBFA has 5 records for the delivery/item.
When the SQL is executed it returns 4 records. If I amend the code to use the following it returns the 5 records. Has anybody had a similar issue.
LOOP AT t_deliveries INTO st_deliveries.
    SELECT vbelv                                     "Delivery
           posnv                                     "Delivery Item
           rfmng                                     "GR Qty
           plmin                                     "Sign
           APPENDING TABLE t_gr
           FROM vbfa
           WHERE vbelv   EQ st_deliveries-vbeln
             AND posnv   EQ st_deliveries-posnr
             AND vbtyp_n EQ c_goods_receipt.
ENDLOOP.

FOR ALL Entries can fatch only the unique rows from the table. So, check in the VBFA for the your inputs and the output fields, you will have only 4 unique records. That's why it is picking up only 4 records.
Try to include one more fields which makes every row as a unique row.

Query return wrong number of records

In a function, I use a variable declare as my_var table_name1.column_name%type.
This variable is used to to a test on a foreign key when I do a query on another table than table_name1 the number of rows return by the query is different than the number of rows return if I do the test directly with the value accorded.
Ex:
declare
my_var table_name1.column_name%type;
row_num number;
begin
my_var := 10;
select count(1) into row_num
from table_name2
where column_name = my_var;
dbms_output.put_line(row_num);
select count(1) into row_num
from table_name2
where column_name = 10;
dbms_output.put_line(row_num);
end;
the first query will return 2 and the second will return 1.
Can someone explain me why I have this strange result ?

BAPI returns less number of records when called from WebDynpro

Hi,
We have a BAPI which updates some tables and then bring back output in the form of a table.
When we execute BAPI from R/3 we get all records. When we execute the BAPI using webdynpro, for the same input values, we are always getting 22 records. This count remains same always.
When we had put a breakpoint in the BAPI and tested it using webdynpro, we get few more records. Wondering what is the prob?
Any help?
regards,
Shabeer

Hi,
Are you using the same user when running the BAPI form R/3 and from the portal?
We had a similar problem when the user from the portal didn't have the necessary authorizations.
