Possible bug? Nested tables and quantity fields in the nested table.

Hey guys,
I have witnessed a weird bug, maybe someone can clarify this for me.
1. Create a nested table. The inner table contains a quantity field of type DZIEME (FROM VBAP-ZIEME).
2. Create your interface and just put this table in the import section. Try to activate. It will work.
3. Create an adobe form for it and a program and execute it. You'll get a short dump saying that VBAP-ZIEME is unknown and that there are errors in the dynamically generated function.
Second test.
1. Create a nested table. The outer table contains a quantity field of type DZIEME (FROM VBAP-ZIEME).
2. Create your interface and just put this table in the import section. Try to activate. It will NOT work.
You have to make the addition of the quantity fields in Currency/Quantity Fields.
From this I see that the checker, doesn't look into nested tables for quantity/currency fields and just activates the interface.
Third test
1. Create a nested table. The inner table contains a quantity field of type DZIEME (FROM VBAP-ZIEME).
2. Create your interface:
2.a. Put this table in the import section.
2.b. Declare the nested Quantity field in the Currency/Quantity Fields section, using the autofiller (the buttons to the right of the field)
2.c Try to activate. It will work.
3. Create an adobe form for it and a program and execute it. You'll get a short dump which for some reason has no info.
From this, I understand that the Currency/Quantity Fields section may not declare the quantity fields, from nested tables, correctly.
What do you guys think? What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,

@Anne Kathrine P...
By nested tables I mean creating table types, in the dictionary (se11) then in the interface>Import section adding a parameter X TYPE B_T.
i.e.
Structure A
Table type of structure A, A_T
Structure B containing a field of table type A
Table type B of structure B, B_T.
The issue can be easily solved for Z tables by changing the component type from quantity to decimal type.

Getting Data from 2 different table and saving it in the third table

Hi,
My question is i have 2 different table where the data is stored. And Nothing is at Level0 and i don't need it.
Table A will be at Level1, this is a scroll and depending on this value the level2 grid will be populated with the values.
Say for example Table A is groups; data e.g., Cars, MotorBike etc
Table B will have the data for Group Cars: Holden, Toyota, Honda etc., MotorBike: Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha etc.,
Now lets say there are 3 divisions in the company AA , BB
Division AA has been allocated group Cars only
Division BB has been Allocated Both Cars and MotorBikes.
To do this i have used a query view where depending on the Division i choose the group and then i get the required fileds.
Now my Problem is that i need to save this data in table C but on the ad-hoc basis can't write a query with in the code to do that.
tried using work record on the scroll but i cant do that as well. Any Suggestions?
One more thing when the Page open this data should be pre-populated on the page depending on the division, the user will not be able to select anything from the prompt.

I hope I can clarify:
For our purposes here:
Table 1 = "Step 2 - Product Sizes"
Table 2 = "Option id Master"
Table 3 = "Export - Product Info"
Table 1:
The user would enter values for "productcode," "Horz," and "Vert"
"Size" would auto fill based on values in Horiz and Vert (I have this taken care of already).
Table 2: This is a completely static table that I want to search against. - Data from other tables in the doc does not alter or change the data in this doc.
We just want to look at table 2. Find the existing value in "table 2 : size" column that matches the "table 1 : size" column and then pull the "optionids" and "productprice" from that row.
Can the value from "Table 1 : Size" be used as a search term in "Table 2 : Size?"
Table 3: The user does not enter any values on this table.
"productcode" is pulled from table 1 - "Table 1 :: A5" = "Table 3 :: A5"
"optionids" and "productprice" are pulled from Table 2 columns "D" and "E" - however we do not know which Table 2 row it is pulling from until we enter data in Table 1.
As I'm writing this I'm realizing that
A. this is probably really confusing to you.
B. this may be impossible inside of numbers.
If you have some other method that would facilitate the same out come but be structured differently please let me know.
--- maybe to help you understand further what I am doing here is my current workflow:
I record the size of a piece of art.
Then I manually go to my "Option id Master" and find the same size.
I then copy the corresponding "optionids" and "productprice" cells. (these options control the prices displayed on my website)
I got to my "Export - Product Info" table and paste the values in the corresponding cells.
I was hoping to automate this as it takes a long time when you have hundreds of products.
Thanks for the help!

Dimension build using SQL table and process to fill the SQL table

I have a dimension in a cube that is manually* built by one of our power users. Now I have to get all the member information of that dimension into a SQL table(example : with columns...level0,level0property,level1,level1property etc....) to use that table in STUDIO for member load.
Is there any easy process to do this? Currently I am building each and every row manually in that SQL table and there are 1100+ members in that manually built dimension. Please advice.

Thank you so much Glenn!! That worked!! You make our lives so much easier!!

How can create a function module for currency and quantity fields

hi,
i want to create a function module with some fields.when i activated it give some errors for
netpr,menge,wemng fields(currency, quantity fields).error is it asks for reference fields.
please send me solution for it.
sreenu.

Hi Sreenu,
While creating CURRENCY/QUANTITY fields in the DataBase Table, you have to enter a REFERENCE TABLE and a REFERENCE FIELD to the field.
For that, after entering the field name and the data type in the correcponding columns, you have to place the cursor on the data type of the required field and click the CURRENCY/QUANTITY FIELDS tab. You will find two columns called REFERENCE TABLE and a REFERENCE FIELD.
you have to enter a reference table in which a currency/quantity field is used and a reference field which is a currency/quantity field in that table.
For Example, below is the table details.
FIELD DATATYPE LENGTH DEC.PLACES REF.TABLE REF.FIELD
1.SNO     CHAR 5
2.AMOUNT CURR 10     2          T001      WAERS
3.NOS     QUAN 5                 KNA1      /VSO/R_PAL_UL
Here Field 2(AMOUNT) is a CURR field whose Ref. Table is T001 and Ref. Field is WAERS and Field 3(NOS) is a QUAN field whose Ref. Table is KNA1 and Ref. Field is /VSO/R_PAL_UL.
Hope this will help you.

Curr and Quantity fields

Hi Experts ,
Why do we have to declare the Type of CURR and QUAN field in the smart form declarations.
TIA
Abhishek

Hi,
Because for those fields there is reference field and table in the database,
why referecnce field and table means:
The reference table and reference field are the fields which specify the currency key or Unit of Measure. Suppose if the user specifies a currency amount say 1000$, the currency amount field would indicate the amount 1000 and the currency key indicates that the currency specified is in Dollars.

Creating a master table and using it to populate other tables.

Hi everyone.
I am a novice at using Numbers and I need some direction.
I am looking to create a master table with information for our summer camp. This table will include vital information such as name, address, etc. along with cabin assignments, tuitions received, and more.
We will separate this information into smaller tables that different portions of that master table for specific use. Such as: names and addresses for leaders, names and tuitions for registration, etc.
My goal is to type the information into the master table and have it update the other tables automatically. Can someone direct me how to format the master and sub tables so that this is possible?
I would greatly appreciate it and it will greatly reduce the record-keeping time for our camp.
Thank You!
Roy

Hi Roy,
Welcome to the Numbers discussions. You are giving us a tall order, especially when we don't know your level of experience in programming spreadsheets.
Here are a couple of basics to start the conversation...
In normal spreadsheet programming, we Pull data from one location into another, we don't Push it or Send it. This should help you to understand that the hard work is done in the sub tables, not the master.
You will use LOOKUP functions to pull the data to your sub tables. Download the Numbers User Guide and the Formulas and Functions User Guide and read up on them.
In your master table, make sure you have one column that uniquely identifies each participant so it will be easy to reference that person in your sub tables.

Jerry

Runtime error in Dynamic internal table with AMOUNT and Quantity Fields..

Dear friends,
I am attempting write a dymanic Select Statement (with joins).
And the sleect query looks like this..
SELECT (LT_SEL_LIST)
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF
TABLE <DYN_TABLE>
FROM (LT_FROM_LIST)
WHERE (LT_WHERE3).
Here the into table is a dynamically created internal table..
which is created by ...this
CALL METHOD CL_ALV_TABLE_CREATE=>CREATE_DYNAMIC_TABLE
 EXPORTING
 IT_FIELDCATALOG = IT_OUTPUT2[]
 IMPORTING
 EP_TABLE = DY_TABLE.
the it_output2 contains the the fieldcatlog information of dynamically given fields :-
like:-
 TABNAME
 FIELDNAME
 DATATYPE
 LENG
 INTTYPE
 ROLLNAME
 DECIMALS
 REFTABLE
 REFFIELD
i mean the internal table is constructed with reference to all the bove metadata.
Problem:- This query run fine with all the fields Except AMOUNT AND QUANTITY fields....
When the selection list contain VBAK-NETWR or MSEG-MENGE..It throws a runtime error.
"The data read during a SLECT access couldnt be inserted into the target field,either conversion is not supported for
the target field's type or the target field is too short."
after this I even tried to construct the dynamic table with CFILEDNAME and QFIELDNAME in the Fieldcatalog.
so now my fieldcatlog looks like this:---
LOOP AT IT_DD03L..
IF IT_DD03L-DATATYPE = 'CURR'.
 TABLEFIELD-CFIELDNAME = IT_DD03L-FIELDNAME .
 ENDIF.

 TABLEFIELD-FIELDNAME = IT_DD03L-FIELDNAME.
 TABLEFIELD-DATATYPE = IT_DD03L-DATATYPE.
 TABLEFIELD-INTLEN = IT_DD03L-LENG.
 TABLEFIELD-INTTYPE = IT_DD03L-INTTYPE .
 TABLEFIELD-ROLLNAME = IT_DD03L-ROLLNAME.
 TABLEFIELD-DECIMALS = IT_DD03L-DECIMALS.
 TABLEFIELD-REF_TABLE = IT_DD03L-REFTABLE.
 TABLEFIELD-REF_FIELD = IT_DD03L-REFFIELD.
APPEND TABLEFIELD.
CLEAR TABLEFIELD.
ENDLOOP.
Note:- this is a test code so ignore performance issues...
Please help me with some code ...to avoid the Runtime erorr.
Thanks,
jeevan.

Hi Jeevan,
Why are moving only few fields from DD03L table to your field catalog? Why don't you use move-corresponding? The following code works for me in ECC6.0.

 ls_dd03l type dd03l,
 lt_fldcat TYPE lvc_t_fcat,
 ls_fldcat TYPE lvc_s_fcat,
 ls_where(72) TYPE c,
 lt_where LIKE TABLE OF ls_where,
 lt_fld LIKE TABLE OF ls_where,
 lt_data_dy TYPE REF TO data.
field-symbols: <ft_data> TYPE STANDARD TABLE.
select * into table it_dd03l from dd03l
 where tabname = 'VBAK'
 and ( fieldname = 'VBELN' or fieldname = 'NETWR' ).
check sy-subrc eq 0.
loop at it_dd03l into ls_dd03l.
move-corresponding ls_dd03l to ls_fldcat.
append ls_fldcat to lt_fldcat.
move ls_dd03l-fieldname to ls_where.
append ls_where to lt_fld.
if ls_dd03l-fieldname = 'VBELN'.
 clear ls_where.
 concatenate ls_dd03l-fieldname ' <> ''''' into ls_where.
 append ls_where to lt_where.
endif.
endloop.
check not lt_fldcat is initial.
CALL METHOD cl_alv_table_create=>create_dynamic_table
 EXPORTING
 it_fieldcatalog = lt_fldcat
 IMPORTING
 ep_table = lt_data_dy
 EXCEPTIONS
 generate_subpool_dir_full = 1
 OTHERS = 2.
 IF sy-subrc <> 0.
 RAISE no_configuration_data.
 ENDIF.
 ASSIGN lt_data_dy->* TO <ft_data>.
check sy-subrc eq 0.
select (lt_fld) from VBAK into corresponding fields of table
 <ft_data>
 where (lt_where).

Problem with currency and quantity field

Hi,
I have done a couple of BDC and watched that if some currency or quantity field is there and i want to run the BDC the particular currency/quantity field will not populate the value inspite of i have declared the same table field that it refers to in the screen in the internal table.
But, if i declare a character string in the internal field having same length as the screen field it will populate at run time. Why so?
Regards
Sandeep

Hi,
Even i have experienced the same problem many a times and use a character string as a work around to solve it.
I guess one reason for it is for the currency and quantity fields, the actual defined length and the output length are different with output length being 3 or 4 bytes greater than that of actual lenght and also the fact that these fields are always right justified. hence some bytes of the field is getting truncated which the system does not allow and discards the whole value.

Mahesh

Adding quantity field for the same material number in Table control

Hello Experts,
I have an requirement, where I need to add the quantity field when the material number is repeated in a table control.
Here I show the pop-up message "Material already exists, do you want to add the quantity". If the user clicks on Yes I need to add the quantity.
I created the pop-up message using the FM " POPUP_TO_CONFIRM" and tried to add the quantity filed using COLLECT statement but I couldn't because my non-numeric field value will be different and it will insert new entry with same material in my internal table.

About Currency and Quantity Fields

How does the Currency and Quantity fields are set to a field in a Table, created in SE11
can you please send examples of each
Thankyou

hi,
its same like any other field.
but one difference :- the reference field is requires.
why reference field?
The reference field is used for the output, the output/input format of a currency field depends on the value of its reference field.
For example if you create a screen using the field KONV-KBETR :
the reference field is RV61A-AWEI1:
if you set RV61A-AWEI1 = 3
the value in KONV-KBETR is beeing shown with 3 decimals
So you could see 3,000 but this value is automatically stored as 30.00
if you set RV61A-AWEI1 = 2
the value in KONV-KBETR is beeing shown with 2 decimals
All this convertions are automatically made in according to the value setted in reference field.
You can see this using the statament WRITE with options CURRENCY, try this:
PARAMETERS P_KBETR LIKE KONV-KBETR.
WRITE: P_KBETR CURRENCY '3'.
WRITE: / P_KBETR CURRENCY '2'.
WRITE: / P_KBETR CURRENCY '1'.
Hope u gor the idea

Can u pls tell what r the currency and quantity fields in detail.

hi to all can u pls teell
can u pls tell what r the currency and quantity fields in detail.
what is reference table .and reference fields .why we r giving theese reference table names while creating the currency fields .

Hi,
Currency amount fields and quantity fields are numeric fields which each have a currency or unit field assigned to them. The correct interpretation of the values in these fields depends on its currency or unit of measure. Therefore, you can decide whether you want their corresponding currency/unit of measure to be displayed before or after the field, or not at all. Proceed as follows:
1. Select the field.
2. Choose one of the options from the window on the lower left (before, No currency field/unit, or after).
3. Choose Apply.

Help On Currency and Quantity Fields:
Whenever you have to maintain fields for currencies and quantites u need to refer them to currency key and quantity key which also have to be present in the table.
If suppose you are creating a table for Employee. And suppose that fields would be like :
EMPID -
employee id
EMPNAME
employee name
DEPARTMENT --- department
SALARY -- salary ( Data Type u2013 CURR )
WEIGHT -
weight of the employee ( Data Type -- QUAN )
Now the fields SALARY AND WEIGHT fields should refer to currency and quantity keys. So you need to have two more fields like
CURRKEY --- Data Type ( Cuky )
Quantity --- Data Type ( Unit )
Now we have to attach the field Currkey to the field Salary
And the field Quantity to the field Weight
So when u create a table you can see a tab Currency / Quantity fields.
Here You can give the reference table and the reference field against the salary and weight fields.
