READ STATEMENT Clarrification

Hi all,
Can we use READ STATEMENT In ABAP to directly Read the DATA BASE TABLE like MARA.

Hi,
Sorry but you cannot use the READ statement to read the data directly from the database table.......you have to select the data from it into the internal table of same type...and read the internal table.

  • Logical expression( = , =, , ) in read statement

    Hi All,
    Is it possible to use the logical expressions like (<= , >=, <, >) in the read statement?

    While you can only use "=" with the READ statement, you can use the READ statement to position the cursor at the first record you want and then use the LOOP with your operators to get only those records you want (assuming standard tables that have been correctly sorted). This can be very efficient.
    There have been many discussion about this in the forums. Please search and you'll see them.

  • Problem with READ Statement in the field routine of the Transformation

    Hi,
    I have problem with read statement with binary search in the field routine of the transformation.
    read statement is working well when i was checked in the debugging mode, it's not working properly for the bulk load in the background. below are the steps i have implemented in my requirement.
    1. I selected the record from the lookuo DSO into one internal table for all entried in source_packeage.
    2.i have read same internal table in the field routine for each source_package entry and i am setting the flag for that field .
    Code in the start routine
    select source accno end_dt acctp from zcam_o11
    into table it_zcam
    for all entries in source_package
    where source = source_package-source
         and accno = source_package-accno.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    delete it_zcam where acctp <> 3.
    delete it_zcam where end_dt initial.
    sort it_zcam by surce accno.
    endif.
    field routine code:
    read table it_zcam with key source = source_package-source
                                                 accno  = source_package-accno
                                                 binary search
                                                 transportin no fields.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    RESULT  = 'Y'.
    else.
    RESULT = 'N'.
    endif.
    this piece of code exist in the other model there its working fine.when comes to my code it's not working properly, but when i debug the transformation it's working fine for those accno.
    the problem is when i do full load the code is not working properly and populating the wrong value in the RESULT field.
    this field i am using in the report filter.
    please let me know if anybody has the soluton or reason for this strage behaviour.
    thanks,
    Rahim.

    i suppose the below is not the actual code. active table of dso would be /bic/azcam_o1100...
    1. is the key of zcam_o11 source and accno ?
    2. you need to get the sortout of if endif (see code below)
    select source accno end_dt acctp from zcam_o11
    into table it_zcam
    for all entries in source_package
    where source = source_package-source
    and accno = source_package-accno.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    delete it_zcam where acctp 3.
    delete it_zcam where end_dt initial.
    endif.
    sort it_zcam by surce accno.
    field routine code:
    read table it_zcam with key source = source_package-source
    accno = source_package-accno
    binary search
    transportin no fields.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    RESULT = 'Y'.
    else.
    RESULT = 'N'.
    endif.

  • Issue with read statement with one more key missing in mapping

    Hi All ,
    I have such data in two internals table :
    IT_bdc
    vbeln            posnr
    90000593     10
    90000576     10
    90000672     10
    90000672     20
    90000672     30
    it_konv
    kbetr          vbeln
    6250          90000576
    12160000          90000593
    500000          90000672
    600000          90000672
    700000          90000672
    My current program statement is :
    LOOP AT it_bdc.
    READ TABLE it_konv WITH KEY
          vbeln = it_bdocs-vbeln.
      currency =   it_konv-waers.
    endloop.
    as you can see the posnr is missing in it_konv how can i modify this read statement so
    that vbeln posnr from it_bdc should get correct kbetr from it_konv.
    Kindly help in this mapping.

    Hi
    sort it_konv by vbeln
    then
    loop at it_bdc.
    read table it_konv with key vbeln = it_bdc-vbeln binary search.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    perform your logic/task.
    endif.
    endloop.
    also it depends what you want to do after reading it_konv.
    in my logic if there is a vbeln in it_konv which s present in it_bdc then sy-subrc will be 0
    and you can perform your logic.
    and if there will be no matching vbeln in it_konv then sy-subrc will not be 0.
    check the values in debugging.
    Thanks

  • M or P master data table  to be used in routine read statement

    Hi
      I update of a DSO i had a requirment for a routine to get the Attribute of a Infoobject.
      So which master data table  M or P table i need to use in my read statement and why
    Thanks

    Use M table as it it the view on time dependent(P table) and time independent(Q table) tables.
    M table is view on time dependent and time independent attributes, you can see characteristic values and all the attributes for the Characteristic.
    The tables that go in the view are the Master Data Table and the Time-Dependent Master Data Table. If the characteristic only has time-dependent attributes, only the time-dependent master data table goes in. If the characteristic has only non-time-dependent attributes, only the master data table goes in.

  • Problem in read statement

    hi,
    my code is ;
    select vbeln audat kunnr auart
            from vbak
            into table  t_vbak2
            for all entries in t_vbfa2
            where vbeln = t_vbfa2-vbelv
            and audat in r_daterange
            and kunnr = partner_number.
            if not t_vbak2[] is initial.
              sort t_vbak2 by vbeln audat auart.
            endif.
    now if i use read statement :
    read table t_vbak2 into wa_vbak2
            with key  vbeln = wa_vbfa1-vbelv
                      audat in r_daterange
                      kunnr = partner_number binary search.
    i get a syntax error.
    can any one help me with this..
    Thanks,
    Challa.

    You can't use the IN operator in your READ statement, only  =  as you are trying to read with key.  In your case, you must use the LOOP statement.
    Loop at t_vbak2 into wa_vbak2
              where vbeln = wa_vbfa1-vbelv
                 and audat in R_daterange
                 and kunnr = Partner_Number.
    * Do whatever you need to do
    Exit.   " This is so you only read one record.
    Endloop.

    hi
    The READ statement is as below:
    When u have a table already with values and to improve the performance u need to use this.
    Reading Lines of Tables
    To read a single line of any table, use the statement:
    READ TABLE <itab> <key> <result>.
    For the statement to be valid for any kind of table, you must specify the entry using the key and
    not the index. You specify the key in the <key> part of the statement. The <result> part can
    specify a further processing option for the line that is retrieved.
    If the system finds an entry, it sets SY-SUBRC to zero, if not, it takes the value 4, as long as it is
    not influenced by one of the possible additions. If the internal table is an index table, SY-TABIX
    is set to the index of the line retrieved. If the table has a non-unique key and there are duplicate
    entries, the first entry is read.
    Thanks
    Shiva

  • Internal table Read statement

    Hi,
    AM using Read statement to read internal table as below.
    Read itab into wa with key x = y.
    if sy-subrc eq 0.
    do some thing.
    endif.
    However the work area wa is not useful to me in my program. when am doing extended check it is issueing warning saying wa is not used. HOW TO CLOSE THIS WARNING.
    Regards,

  • Read statement in abap

    Hello Experts,
    Can I use both index and key addition in READ statment like
    Read table itab from index i with key id = 'XYZ'.
    Actually I am using that but the read statement is not following both the addition.Is there any other way out in which I can do that.I dont want to use LOOP...ENDLOOP

    Hi *priya singh *.
    You are not able to use index and with key parley in read statement. you should use LOOP..END LOOP only..
    See following...
    I think in your requirement you want i th record which is satisfied id = 'XYZ'.
    use following code...
    loop at itab into wa where id = 'XYZ'.
      if sy-index eq = i.
         " Assign/take values here
       EXIT.      " -->  Immediately exit the loop after satisfied your condition
      exit.
    endloop.

    Hi Nilesh,
    READ statement is NOT Obsolete in ECC 6.0. It is very much in use. I think the syntax that you used might not be correct. Kindly verify with below syntax..
    READ TABLE itab INTO ls_itab WITH KEY (Key fields) BINARY SEARCH.
    WITH KEY
    can be used or
    WITH INDEX
    can also be used..

  • Can put condition in read statement for a particular fild please suggest?

    hi i have a requirement as belo
    1 ) i am reading a table with read statement now i want to read with one more condition like
    where status<> Z
    to add to this read statement as below can i add the above condition to the below statement?? let me know
    how to check on this one more condition in below read statement
    loop at itrecord1 into wa_Record
    READ TABLE it_main INTO wa_inv_master  WITH KEY
    /'                                 CUSIP = wa_record-primarykeyfield1  BINARY SEARCH.
    here one more condition i need to put whilereading that where statu <>z which is best way todo
              IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
                 APPEND wa_record TO itrecord1.
                 clear wa_record.
              else.
                 APPEND wa_record TO itrecord2.
                 clear : wa_record.
              ENDIF.
          ENDLOOP.
    so how to put the condition in above statment can  put in the read statement as that is most convinient will that work?
    regards
    arora

    Hello arora.
    You can restrict the READ to an internal table, using "n" conditions in WITH KEY statement.
    Use:
    READ TABLE it_main INTO wa_inv_master
      WITH KEY cusip = wa_record-primarykeyfield1
               field2 = wa_record-field2
               fieldn = wa_record-fieldn
        BINARY SEARCH.
    Remember that if you want restrictions like ">=", "<=", "<" or "<", must use LOOP, not READ.
    Regards.
