Reg. Reccursive Query

Hi,
My requirement is that I have a condition which gets 2 values as the input of a search query, I need to search the same from a table.
Eg. consider a table(Employee) with 5 columns say Emp.ID,Name,Salary,DOJ and role.
I will be getting Emp.ID(mandatory field) and Name(optional field) as input of the search criteria.
Based on the Emp.Id entered I need to perform a reccursive query which will traverse to the top on the basis of Role(Seniority).
Suppose if Emp.ID of a Clerk is entered then it performs reccursive query and goes till the senior most level (ie) Chairman and gives out the Emp.ID of the Chairman.
kindly help me in writing a suitable query for this...
hope you have understood my requirement?
Regards,
Symonds

I'm not sure to understand as well, but maybe do you mean hierachical query ?

  • Reg select query problem

    hi all,
    hope all r doing fine?
    anyway i have a query which is mentioned below:-
    select field1,.....fieldn
             from <dbtable1>
             into corresponding fields of table itab
             where <condition>.
    select field1,...fieldn
              from <dbtable2>
             appending corresponding fields of table itab
            where <condition>.
    the above two select stmts retrieve same set of  fields from two different database tables into same internal table itab..
    now my question is ...........is any other way to change 2nd select statement without using appending correspondin fields
    but the functionality should remain the same as it is after changing..................
    bcos appending corresponding is causing performance problem in data retrieval.
    thanx alot in advance.
    for sure points will be given for all the helpful answers
    Jack

    Hi,
    You can use like that:
    select field1,.....fieldn
    from <dbtable1>
    into corresponding fields of table itab1
    where <condition>.
    select field1,...fieldn
    from <dbtable2>
    appending corresponding fields of table itab2
    where <condition>.
    now u use:
    loop at itab2 into w_itab2.
    read table itab1 into w_itab1 with key w_itab1-<primary field> = w_itab2-<Primary field>.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
      append w_final into i_final.
    else continue.
    endif.
    endloop.
    *i_final table having all data ( i.e itab2 & itab1 data)

    Regards,
    Ravi Ganji

    Hi ,
      The statement will not work because it will try to find all records which has v_tabna in its field.
    So what you need to do is concatenate % before and after the value of the varaible v_tabna and store it in some varaible say v_value and use it in the where clause.
    so your code will look like this
    *v_tabna = i_dd02l-tabname.
    concatenate '%'  i_dd02l-tabname '%' into v_tabna
    select single tcode
    param into (v_tcode , v_param)
    from tstcp where param like tabna.

  • Reg Infoset query

    Hi,
    What is infoset query in generic extraction? Why and when do we go for it? What is the advantage of it?
    Any help would be appreciated the sdn way.
    Regards,
    Jon.

    Hi ,
    <b>What are Info sets ?</b>
    An InfoSet is a special view of a set of data (logical database, table join, table, sequential file). It serves as the data source for SAP Query. An InfoSet determines which tables or fields of these tables are referenced in an evaluation. InfoSets are usually based on logical databases.
    InfoSets are only available if you have created them globally, independent of a client. You set this global area in the initial screen of InfoSet maintenance under Environment Work Areas.
    If you are using an InfoSet to extract data, the system first collects all data in the main memory. The data is transferred to the BI system in packages using the Service API interface. The size of the main memory is therefore important with this type of extraction. It is suitable for limited datasets only.
    When an InfoSet is created, a data source is selected in an application system. Since a data source can have a large number of fields, fields can be combined into logical units; the functional groups. Functional groups are groups of several fields that form a logical unit within an InfoSet. Any fields that you want to use in an extraction structure have to be assigned to a functional group. In generic data extraction using an InfoSet, all the fields of all functional groups for this InfoSet are available.
    The relevance of SAP Query to BI lies in the definition of the extraction structure by selecting fields of a logical database, a table join or other datasets in an InfoSet. This allows you to use generic data extraction for master or transaction data from any InfoSet.
    A query is generated for an InfoSet. The query gets the data and transfers it to the generic extractor.
    <b>Extraction Step By Step :</b>
    <b>R3 Side :</b>
    SQ02 -> Create info set , Generate .
    RS02 -> Create data source by giving info set name .
    RSA3 -> Check the data source for entries.
    <b>BW  Side :</b>
    Replicate DS.
    Assign DS for IS .
    Create TR , Activate
    Create Cube , UR .
    Create Info Pack ,Schedule the extraction .
    Hope this helps..
