Referencing field in a query struct

About 5% of the time I get an error 'Element COMPANYSTATUS is
undefined in Q.' from the code in SNIPPET 1. Can anyone tell me why
I would ever get this error? If the query returns 0 results (which
it may if the user is not logged in and SESSION.User.GetCompanyID()
return 0) it should return false since q.RecordCount is 0. The
problem is I know users in at least some cases are logged in and
the query is returning at least one row. The IF statement should
short circuit on the record count if its 0. If it doesn't then the
comparison for q.CompanyStatus should always be valid. Does any
know why CF flakes out occasionally when referencing
q.CompanyStatus? I see this in other areas as well such as in
SNIPPET 2. The method is called from another CFC where I can
guarantee the passed argument '_company_id' is valid integer and
the SQL should always return 1 result. Why then do I get the error
'Element STATE is undefined in Q.' Is it bad practice referencing
query fields this way?
Thanks In Advance

No. The cftry/cfcatch was for catching database errors.
However, you may wish to let those bubble up.
Since the component exists in a shared scope, using
IsDefined() is potentially dangerous IMO. If you do not include a
scope, CF automatically searches multiple scopes for the given
variable name. So I would use structKeyExists instead.
(Coincidentally a similar topic came up on HOF today)
I would do something like this
<cfset var Local = structNew()>
<cfquery name="Local._SqlQuery"
datasource="#APPLICATION.config.DSN#">
#preserveSingleQuotes(ARGUMENTS._sql)#
</cfquery>
<cfif structKeyExists(Local, "_SqlQuery")>
<cfreturn Local._SqlQuery>
<cfelse>
<cfreturn false>
</cfif>
....

Creation of local field in ABAP Query

Hi
Please let me know how to create a local field in ABAP query. I am finding the option inactive in SQ01.
Regards
Priyadarshini

hi priya,
     *__Adding u201CLocal Fieldu201D (user defined field) in SAP Query_ :
There is also facility to add the user defined fields in SAP query output. Also we can provide calculation formula for calculating values for this user defined field.
Calculation formula consists of standard fields from standard SAP tables. So the values fetched for particular standard SAP fields from standard SAP tables get calculated as per the calculation formula defined for the user defined field and displays the value accordingly.
To do this first go to change mode for Query which automatically takes you to screen shown below and click on icon   , as below :
Then further screen will appears. So select the Field group and again click on the same icon button   .
Then switch on the Short names for the fields and give the short names to fields which we need to use in Calculation formula.
Give the short names and then created u201CLocal Fieldu201D, as shown in below screen shot. Also Short names are given to fields, which can be used further for calculation.
Defining Local Field u201CREM_QTYu201D along with its field type and Calculation formula.
In this case we have
defined field type for new
field as similar to
ORD_QTY and
Calculation formula is
defined.
Also its possible to have Conditional logic for Local field by putting Condition in u201CConditionu201D line.
Now activate this newly added Local field for coming it in output screen. To do the same again go to u201CBasic Listu201D and activate the Local Field as shown below :
i think this will help u

Alignment and restriction of Custom field in SAP query report

Hi Experts,
I have one custom field in query report(SQ01) called Amount in local currency which is calculated based on Amount in document currecy * exchange rate.
But this field values are coming in left alignment instead of right alignment so how i should get in right alignment and second issue is how i can restrict field value to only 2 decimals.
I tried the below link "http://media.techtarget.com/searchSAP/downloads/SAP_Query_C7.pdf" but the steps they mentioned are not appearing in SQ01 for example in that link they mentioned to click Basic List option for advanced steps but when i click i goes directly to field list with field groups on left pane
Please provide solution for this.
Thanks&Regards,
narasimha

Hello narasimha,
In the Infoset when you create the additional field, enter an existing SAP table field that has type CURR in the parameter labeled LIKE Reference. For example you can enter BSAK-DMBTR as a value. When you select the additional field in the query, the currency will also show.

Addition of checkbox and 2 fields in ABap query selection screen

Hi
I need to add chack boxes and 2 fields in ABAP query which is using LDB QMI. can u pls let me know how to do that.

Hi Tarun,
I am still not clear with the problem..I guess you require plant in your selection screen which you have.
i guess if you go to sq01tcode there is a option infoset query from where you can give your selection options and value.
have you selected all the fields in infoset and made a selection screen?
When you have done with your infoset you just need to diplay the fields and there is a automatic program generated.
Let me know...

Calculated field in a query

Hi,
To begin with I am just learning EJB and JAVA so please bear with me. I want to create a calculated field in a query from two fields in the table being queried, using SQL I would write the query like this:
SELECT ledgerdate, description, quantity, unitprice, [quantity*unitprice] FROM ledger
I have created a class called ViewLedger to contain my results, it has the following elements:
DATE ledgerdate,
STRING description,
INTEGER quantity,
BIGDECIMAL unitprice,
BIGDECIMAL amount
The query that I have been attempting that fails is:
SELECT NEW ViewLedger(l.ledgerdate, l.description, l.quantity, l.unitprice, l.quantity*l.unitprice) FROM Ledger l
The error says that there is an unexpected * in the query
The following do not work either:
SELECT NEW ViewLedger(l.ledgerdate, l.description, l.quantity, l.unitprice, (l.quantity*l.unitprice)) FROM Ledger l
The error says there is an unexpected ( in the query.
SELECT NEW ViewLedger(l.ledgerdate, l.description, l.quantity, l.unitprice, [l.quantity*l.unitprice]) FROM Ledger l
The error says there is an unexpected [ in the query.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I don't think JPQL allows functions (*) in the SELECT clause.
You can use a native SQL query as a workaround. If you are using EclipseLink or TopLink Essentials, you can also use a ReportQuery.
You may also want to vote for the bug,

Add field in a query (logical data base)

Hi,
I want to add a field in a query .
The data source of its infoset is logical database .
When i tried to drag and drop the field, the alv grid turned to alv list.
Can you help me.
thanks,
Meriem.

Hi Merim,
As KAMESH mention,
you can add additional fields in your infoset and put the logic for that field in your infoset program and assign the same field in your existing group within infoset.
once you assign the infoset and generate the infoset then your field will be reflected in sap Query .
you can add additional field in your output.

Additional fields in SAP Query

Hi ,
We have a requirement in HR reporting wherein we are providing the late attendance records of the employees. That is the person is scheduled to come at a respective time but he comes in late and this record is created in attendence infotype . Now we need to see the variance in his planned and actual arrival . Majorly all the fields are availabe in the Infosets but the one with the variance is not there . So do we need to create a custom report for the same or it can be handled in the SAP query adding one field for calculation. If it can be handled , how can that be possible .
Thanks & Regards

Populating Additional Field in InfoSet Query

Hello,
My team and I are working on generating a relatively simple report from the VBAK (Sales Header), VBAP (Sales Items) and VEDA (Date data) tables. We would prefer to be able to build an InfoSet (SQ02) and Query (SQ01) instead of writing a custom report.
The problem is the VEDA table contains data that may link to the VBAK and sometimes the VBAP table. The usage is that the header has begin and end dates for a contract, which is denoted by a blank value in POSNR field in the VEDA table. If a particular line on a contract has different dates than the header, there will be an additional record in the VEDA table where the POSNR value matches the POSNR value from the VBAP (Item) record.
The link to the VBAP table is straight forward being keyed off of the VBELN (doc number) and the POSNR (item number) fields in both tables. However, there's isn't a POSNR field in the VBAK (header) table and the VEDA table shows this as a blank value in the POSNR field.
The simplest thing I can think of doing is link the VEDA table to the VBAP and let it retrieve all the exact matches on Sales Doc & Item Number but add two "Additional Fields" to the Query that would represent the Sales Header begin and end dates.
I know how to add an additional field but how would you "re-query" the VEDA table and under which option under the Code tab.
Thanks

Hi Alex
Please see if below example helps you to understand:
Supposing, we are displaying material description within our query.
1. So we define the join with MARA & MAKT while creating infoset in transaction SQ02.
2. We create feild groups to identify the fiels we use for selection and display.
3. Here after selecting language key from MAKT, by default this will take SY-LANGU always for the case.
4. To make it applicable for different languages we can code in INITIALIZATION Event.
5. To do so we can do it by two options: Use menupath: Goto->Code->Initialization
i) First option using variable: <b>MAKT-SPRAS = SY-LANGU.</b>.
ii) Second option using Parameter-Id: <b>SET PARAMETER ID 'SPR' FIELD SY-LANGU</b>.
6. Save & Generate.
Now when we execute the query, we are defaulting the language as System Language.
Hope the above info helps you for better understanding.
Kind Regards

How to Substr field in SAP Query.

Dear Developer,
How to substr any field in SAP Query ?
Regards,
Ujed.

Hi Ujed,
if SUBSTR stands for substring, then possibly your question may be how to get the substr method as konown in languages like php in ABAP. If SAP Query points to a SAP query as created in transaction SQ01, then you should explain what you want to achieve.
Note: Better ask a specific question and get am answer you can or which is already generalized.
If I need a substr function, I'd create a functional method for that:
method substr
importing
    anyfield type any
    offset type i
    length type i
returning substring type string.
try.
    substring = anyfield+offset(length).
catch cx_root.
* handle error
endtry.
endmethod.

ADDING SOURCE SYSTEM FIELD IN MY QUERY

HI ALL,

MAX PTS GIVEN
REGARDS,
AXEL

Hi Axel...
if yo want ot jump from a query to some R/3 report, pgm, transaction...you can use the report-report interface (RRI)...but if you want to add a field on the same screen of your query, you can go for a virtual char/KF: it's enough to add it in your cube, let it empty and fill it runtime with some ABAP lines with an RFC link to the table field you need...
pay attention to performance issues and to the consideration that this field will be empty if your RFC fails (foe unavailability of R/3 system, for example...)
Otherwise try to use a virtual cube !
Hope it helps!

Multiple Value in additional fields using SAP Query

HI All,
I have a question related additional field in SAP Query. I tried to create report about PR and PO using SAP Query. Since one PR can be converted to multiple PO, I decided to create additional field
po_1
to display the value of PO that related to the PR. But I meet problem when I want to show several PO number in additional field
po_1
, I couldn't look the way to solve this problem. Can anybody help me? Just for info, I assign value to additional field
po_1
in record processing part.
Thanks....

HI,
IN SQ02, IF table is already in JOIN, just click on the PLUS sign to expand the strcture.
All the field showing Plus sign in the strcture are selected in your query and with MINUS sing are no selected.
So you have to just click on the MINUS sign for the field you want to use through table field.
Generate the query and execute thriugh SQ01.
If you want to add some other field which is not a part of JOIN,
then click on EXTRAS Button shown in the MENU option.
Click on Create button and system will ask abt the additional field.
Regds,

I need use conditions in the select fields of a query.

Hello,
Is possible, that I can have conditions in the select fields of a query? In a invoice when the type is cancellation I want to put *-1 to price and if is other type the price is normally.
If VBRK.FKART = 'S1' THEN KWERT*-1 else KWERT .
Thank you very much.

you can do two things:
1. select the data into internal table and loop through the internal table and do the necessary changes
SELECT fkart kwert
FROM vbrk
INTO TABLE itab
WHERE ...
LOOP AT itab.
IF itab-fkart EQ 'S1'.
itab-kwert = itab-kwert * -1 .
MODIFY itab.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
2. use select-endselect and change the data acc. to your needs inbetween and append the internal table.
SELECT fkart kwert
FROM vbrk
INTO wa
WHERE ...
IF wa-fkart EQ 'S1'.
wa-kwert = wa-kwert * -1 .
ENDIF.
APPEND wa TO itab.
ENDSELECT.
(The first approach is probably faster.)

Defaulting search fields in af:query component

I have a search popup with af:query and a result table. My requirement is to default some of the fields in af:query when the popup launches.
Since i could not achieve this, i wrote a temporary work around which should be removed as soon as we find a permanent solution.
Work around:
1. Wrote a method showQBE() in the bean. Wrote the logic to default the QBE fields by manually iterating through the component binding.
2. Call showQBE() in the visible property of the af:query so that this executed when the popup is invoked.
public boolean showQBE(){
RichQuery rq = this.getResourcePickerQBE(); // Bindning for QBE
QueryDescriptor dq = rq.getValue();
List children = rq.getChildren();
Iterator childrenItr = children.iterator();
while (childrenItr.hasNext()) {
RichPanelGroupLayout rpcl = (RichPanelGroupLayout)childrenItr.next();
Iterator rpclItr = rpcl.getChildren().iterator();
while (rpclItr.hasNext()) {
// RichPanelLabelAndMessage
UIComponent rplm = (UIComponent)rpclItr.next();
Iterator rplmItr = rplm.getChildren().iterator();
while (rplmItr.hasNext()) {
UIComponent comp = (UIComponent)rplmItr.next();
Iterator compItr = comp.getChildren().iterator();
while (compItr.hasNext()) {
UIComponent comp1 = (UIComponent)compItr.next();
String class2 = comp1.getClass().getSimpleName();
if (class2.equals("RichInputText")) {
RichInputText rit = (RichInputText)comp1;
if ("value40".equals(rit.getId()) ||
"value41".equals(rit.getId())) {
rit.setValue("Bryan");
} else if ("value50".equals(rit.getId()) ||
"value51".equals(rit.getId())) {
rit.setValue(ADFUtil.evaluateEL("Adams"));

rit.setValue("");

The af:query is based on a View Criteria from a PVO, so i wrote the following code to set the value for the criteria items in the View criteria.
I wrote it in view object's getter in the AMImpl.java
public ResourcePickerVOImpl getResourcePicker(){
ResourcePickerVOImpl vo = findViewObject("ResourcesPicker");
ViewCriteria vc = (ViewCriteria)vo.getViewCriteria("ResourcePickerSearch");
ViewCriteriaManager vm = vc.getViewCriteriaManager();
Row rows[] = vc.getAllRowsInRange();
for(Row row : rows){
List<ViewCriteriaItem> cit = ((ViewCriteriaRow)row).getCriteriaItems();
Iterator<ViewCriteriaItem> itr = cit.iterator();
while(itr.hasNext()){
ViewCriteriaItem vtr = itr.next();
vtr.setValue("Mathew");
System.out.println("Column name: " + vtr.getColumnName() + " Value: " + vtr.getValue());
I changed the contextDelivery = immediate and childrenCreation = immediate since the popup was always showing empty search fields.
After changing this property i am seeing a new issue -> First time when i open the popup nothing is shown in the search fields. Then from the subsequent times it is showing the values defaulted through the above code.
Any idea!

Custom Field in Infoset Query missing in Infoset

Hi Everyone,
I'm in a puzzle and I hope someone can help me. Basically I need to maintain an existing infoset Query - While looking through the query and it's related Infoset I noticed there is a custom field appearing in the query (SQ01) but this field is nowhere to be seen in the Infoset (SQ02) - I'm just wondering how can this be ?
The same custom field exists in another Infoset - is it therefore possible to build a query using an infoset while pulling in fields from another ?
I would appreciate any thoughts on this matter as I'm in a very confused way over this.
Thanks in advance
Kind Regards
Damien
Edited by: Damien Kesle on Jul 22, 2009 3:48 PM

Hi Damien Kesle ,
There are ways by which you can create fields ( they are called Local fields ) in the Query too.
Please see , whether the custom field you are asking is present in the Query.
Even then , just to confirm that your said field does not exist in the infoset, follow the steps.
Go to SQ02, put the name of your Infoset and click on tab "Description ".
Then do a Ctrl + F (Find/Search) for the field. If its not there, then you can confirm that the field comes from Query and not Infoset.
Approach for any further queries.

Subin John

Text of additional fields on SAP query show blank

Hi All,
I'm encountered a problem when text of additional fields on SAP query is not working and it's show blank after HRSP is implemented.
SAP_ABA : Rel. 701 Lvl. 3
SAP_BASIS: Rel. 701 Lvl. 3
SAP_HR: Rel. 604 Lvl. 8
Below are the config that we have done before HRSP in table: TEXC_FLD_C and it's work perfectly.
Table Name: P0000_AF
Field Name: ZZAPPRATING
Function Module: ZHRGYYFMPA_PDRATING_TEXT
Exception Priority: 1
Object Type Name: CL_HR_TEXT_IDENTIFIER
During debugging, we found that program (Form: %_GET_PERAS) is retrieve text of additional fields based on structure P0000_AF. At this point, text of fields are successfully take place and filled. However, program try to retrieve the text based on structure P0000 again right after that. Due to additional fields are added on P0000_AF not P0000 and no ZZAPPRATING field found in P0000, hence program has cleared the text which filled in previously. This give the result, text is blank.
Please advise, how should I get this resolved.
Thank you very much.
