Regarding Table type..

Hi,
I used to declare internal table as given below and use them in the program,
Data : int1 type Mara.
Data : int2 like Mara.
But recently i saw a syntax as given below,
Data: <internal table name> type <Table type>.
What is table type?
What is it use when declaring with internal table?
I saw table type in SE11 and entered MARA in table type but i got information that "No objects correspond to the selection criteria". Please give me example for "table type".

Hi,
Check this out......
You can specify the table type <tabkind> as follows:
ANY TABLE->
1.INDEX Table.
2.Hashed table.
In INDEX TABLE->
1.STANDARD TABLE.
2.SORTED TABLE.
Generic table types
INDEX TABLE
For creating a generic table type with index access.
ANY TABLE
For creating a fully-generic table type.
Data types defined using generic types can currently only be used for field symbols and for interface parameters in procedures . The generic type INDEX TABLE includes standard tables and sorted tables. These are the two table types for which index access is allowed. You cannot pass hashed tables to field symbols or interface parameters defined in this way. The generic type ANY TABLE can represent any table. You can pass tables of all three types to field symbols and interface parameters defined in this way. However, these field symbols and parameters will then only allow operations that are possible for all tables, that is, index operations are not allowed.
Fully-Specified Table Types
STANDARD TABLE or TABLE
For creating standard tables.
SORTED TABLE
For creating sorted tables.
HASHED TABLE
For creating hashed tables.
Fully-specified table types determine how the system will access the entries in the table in key operations. It uses a linear search for standard tables, a binary search for sorted tables, and a search using a hash algorithm for hashed tables.

Regarding appending data in table type

Hello Experts,
Actually, I have one structure and in that I am using one table type .
e.g. in the main structure, fields are as follows,
po_number po_line_item_no gr_details
here gr_details is table type having following fields.
gr_number gr_qty gr_date
As we all know that one po can have multiple GR,
I want to append entries in the above structure in such a way that for one po entry , in the same record , multiple Gr entries should come.
I am doing one program , in it is mendatory.
can anyone please revert back on the same with High Priority ( Coding in Program to append values as per explained above ).
Best Regards,
Rashmi.

Hi!
For the same PO entry multiple GRs in same record is not possible. But you can have multiple GR entries in your internal table with same PO details.
For eg. If you have one PO with 4 GRs then you will have 4 lines in internal table that belong to same PO but different GRs. In this case PO details would be redundant.
To read these values into internal table
1. You can read the GR details into corresponding columns of internal table and then update the PO columns for these records.
2. The other bit diffcult way could be to read all PO details into internal table. Then loop at internal table for each PO find out the no. of GRs. If it has N no of GRs then add (N-1) rows with same PO details and different GR details and update the N the GR detail into the existing row of the internal table. If it has only 1 GR then update the existing line. If PO has no GR then delete the table line.

Regarding the table type

hi,
this is the requirement
iam selecting a field from a data base table and passing that field to an import parameter of a function module.
the type of the import parameter is table line type.
how to pass data to that variable which of table type.
table type : /SAPAPO/RESID_TAB. "there is a field of type this in FM
DATA : LOC_IT_RESOURCE type /SAPAPO/RESID_TAB .
DATA : L_IT_RESOURCE like /sapapo/res_head-RESUID.
now if i have to pass value from L_IT_RESOURCE to LOC_IT_RESOURCE
how shd i assign value?
can anyone suggest an answer for this.
thanks in advance

Move individual common values from one table to another table ..
using LOOP .. ENDLOOP.
Some fields will be common in both table...
LOOP AT L_IT_RESOURCE.
move common values to wa of LOC_IT_RESOURCE
append wa to LOC_IT_RESOURCE.
ENDLOOP.

How to populate internal table( varaible of ABAP table type) in Excel VBA?

Hi,
I am trying to update a database table from excel using a VBA Macro.
I am able to connect to SAP and able to read data from SAP using a RFC. Similarly after updating certain values, i want to update a table in SAP.
Below are the steps I am doing apart from basic settings.
Getting the reference of the SAP TABLE type from RFC fucntion module
' Call RFC
Set MyFunc = R3.Add("UPDATE_TVARVC_VIA_RFC")
' Get reference and Values TVARVC
Set oParam4 = MyFunc.Tables("TVARVC")
   2. Loop over the active cells and populate oParam4
          " add values as below
    oParam4.Rows.Add
    oParam4.Value(1, "NAME") = ..................
    oParam4.Value(1, "TYPE") = ..................
    oParam4.Value(1, "NUMB") = ..................
Do it for all columns in the table line.
My query is how to identify active cells and make the above code dynamic in step 2.
Thanks in Advance,
Best,
Aneel

Hi Aneel,
You can try the following:
e.g.
for j = 1 to ActiveCell.SpecialCells(11).Column
oParam4.Rows.Add
if j=1 then oParam4.Value(j, "NAME") = ActiveSheet.Cells(1,j).Value
if j=2 then oParam4.Value(j, "TYPE") = ActiveSheet.Cells(1,j).Value
if j=3 then oParam4.Value(j, "NUMB") = ActiveSheet.Cells(1,j).Value
next j

How to retrieve the values from PL/SQL table types.

Hi Every one,
I have the following procedure:
DECLARE
TYPE t1 IS TABLE OF emp%ROWTYPE
INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
t t1;
BEGIN
SELECT *
BULK COLLECT INTO t
FROM emp;
END;
This procedure works perfectly fine to store the rows of employee in a table type. I am not able to retrieve the values from Pl/SQL table and display it using dbms_output.put_line command.
Can anybody help me please!!!!!
Thanks
Ahmed.

You mean, you can't add this
for i in t.first..t.last loop
dbms_output.put_line(t(i).empno||' '||t(i).ename||' '||t(i).job);
end loop;or you can't add this
set serveroutput onor maybe, you are working in third party application where dbms_output is not applicable at all?
You see, not able like very similar it is not working - both are too vague...

Types used in this fashion, only make sense if the table is based on the type. It makes very little sense to have a table structure and then to duplicate the structure using a type.
The 2 structures may be defined the same. But they are NOT interchangeable and requires one to be converted to the other to use. This is not sensible in my view. It is far easier in that case to simply use the PL/SQL macro +%RowType+ to create a duplicate structure definition - one that can natively be used for touching that table, without conversions required.
If you do want to use types, define the type, then define the table of that type, adding the required constraints (pk, fk, not null, check) to the table's definition.Billy:
Just curious, why do you say it makes very little sense to have a type modeled on a table? I do that a lot. In my case, I am getting the values from an external program, not building them manually, but it makes a lot of sense to me.
One application where I do this a lot has a java front-end that parses HL7 messages. Each message contains at least minimal information about a variable number of entities (and often several rows for an entity) in the database, and must be processed as a single atomic trasnaction. So, rather than have potentially hundreds of parameters to the "main" driver procedures for different message types I created a set of types more or less identical to the tables representing the entities. The java program parses the mesasge and populates the type, then calls the appropriate stored procedure for the message type passing in the populated types. My stored procedure then does inserts/updates or deletes as appropriate over potentially dozens of tables.

Page break handeling when using table type field

Hello everyone
I've created an adobe form using tcode SFP.
A table, "T1", is containing fields where one of it is a TABLE TYPE (Let give the following name "T1-FT1").
So the structure can look like:
T1-F1
T1-F2
T1-FT1-FTF1
T1-FT1-FTF2
basically the structure is like to have documents containing several items where those items have several serial number.
I need to have page break per documents, per items and serial number where those one have specific header page different than the document itself.
I need to have a page break per T1 records with specifc header.
So for each new records of T1, I have to create a new page with it's specific header.
The table T1-FT1 is starting on the current page, but if I have to many records to stay on the page I need to create another page with it's specific header that is different than the page 1.
My problem is the page break handling.
I can have the pagination tab at the Table1 and row1 level but I don't have the pagination tab at the T1-FT1 level.
Here is what my hierarchy:
_MasterPage
__Page1
__Page2
_MainSubForm
__Subform1
___Table1
____Row1
_____Subform
______Table2
________Row2
Example of Data:
T1-F1 ___ T1-F2 __ T1-FT1-FTF1 __ T1-FT1_FTF2
A _______ B _____ 1 ___________ 1
A _______ B _____ 1 ___________ 2
B _______ C _____ 1 ___________ 1
B _______ D _____ 1 ___________ 2
B _______ D _____ 1 ___________ 3
The final page break layout should look like:
Page1
Header1
A B
___ 1 1
___ 1 2
Page2
Header1
B C
___ 1 1
___ 1 2
Page 3
Header2
B C
___ 1 3
Because there is not enough room on page 2 for the last record of the table T1-FT1, a new header is used on page 3.
Actually several problems occurs. I cannot have the proper page break set to avoid empty pages as first or last page.
The pagination tab stop to be available after the Row1. So we cannot set page break at the table2 and row2.
The page break contidion doesn't work. "Well I didn't succeed to make it work".
Any idea on how to handle those page break at table2 level?
Is anyone had to create a PDF form where we have the date into several level of structure?
Regards
dstj

I have the exact same issue. Could not find a solution. In my case, there are multiple subforms printed one below the other. If an expandable subform overflows into a new page, the last line overlaps with the text of next subform. I have added blank spaces between the subforms but, that does not solve the issue.
Finally, I have managed to minimize the occurrence of the issue by doing the following. Only turn on the flag "Allow Page breaks within content" for subforms that can really spread over many pages. All other subforms, turn the flag off. This minimizes the possibility of overlapping.

Assigning data from one Table type to another structure

Hi every one,
I have a table type X sent from one function module to another Proxy generated method which has the parameter defined as a structure.
I have declared a variable Y as a LINE TYPE OF X.
Then I have this statement which fills up the data.
READ TABLE X INTO Y INDEX 1.
The data is transferred from X to Y.
Now i need to send this to the proxy generated Function module which has a structure Z.
Now when i say MOVE-CORRESPONDING Y to a variable of type Z, it says it cannot be converted.
The structure in proxy generated FM has different data type but the same domain as that of standard one.
Everywhere it is prefixed with YY.
And also has one additional Controller tab inserted,
Can you guys tell me how to move the data from this table type to the structure.
- Venkat

Hi,
Declare a variable of line type Z.
Move corresponding values from variable X to this variable.
Append this variable to the table Z.
Try this.

How to execute a procedure if out parameter is table type

Hi,
I need to execute a procedure, output parameter of the procedure is table type.
Oracle version I am using is 9.2.0.8 . I am using SQL*Plus
Procedure declaration
PROCEDURE current_open_cycle (p_ban IN repl_cust2.billing_account.ban%TYPE,
v_bill_seq_rec OUT bill_seq_table) ;
Table type declaration
TYPE bill_seq_table IS
TABLE OF bill_seq_rectype INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER ;
TYPE bill_seq_rectype IS RECORD (v_cycle_run_year repl_cust2.bill.cycle_run_year%TYPE,
v_cycle_run_month repl_cust2.bill.cycle_run_month%TYPE,

v_billed_cycle BOOLEAN, --
v_invoice_number VARCHAR2(13),
v_start_date DATE,
v_end_date DATE,
v_root_ban repl_cust2.bill.root_ban%TYPE) ;
I tried executing using this script, but it failed. When I execute this oracle lost connection to data base.
declare
r_bill_seq_rec ss_invoice_utilities.bill_seq_table;
begin
ss_invoice_utilities.current_open_cycle(934018003,r_bill_seq_rec);
end;
Please help me how I should write declare block to execute this procedure and also print output of the procedure.
Regards
Raghu

I don't see anything wrong with the anonymous block, assuming ss_invoice_utilities is the correct package name. Perhaps a simplified test case would show up what's not working there.
As for printing the contents of an associative array, you'll have to write some code to loop through it and construct a string per row to output via dbms_output, assuming the text will fit within dbms_output's size restrictions in 9i. dbms_output is a debugging tool though - is that the requirement?
btw "pls_integer" is less to type than "binary_integer" ;)

Information on table type datatypes.

Hi,
I am working with the table type composite datatype. After I insert the values to the table type declared variable how will I be able to print that or use it in further DML operations.
example
create or replace procedure xxx_proc as
type u_rec is record
empno number(5),
ename varchar2(10));
type m_tbl is table of u_rec index by binary_integer;
cursor c1 is select empno, ename from scott.emp;

fetch c1 into motorola;
i := i+1;
nokia(i) := motorola;
end loop;
dbms_output.put_line(nokia.first);
dbms_output.put_line(nokia.last);
dbms_output.put_line(nokia(2));
end;
I execute this proecedure it returns error at 19, how will I print the values.

How to Populate a table type variable from a cursor

Hi
I have a stored procedure (P1) that returns a ref cursor as the output.
Another procedure (P2) receives this ref cursor (C).
In this procedure (P2), I want to do a Bulk Collect from this ref cursor (C) in

Please advise how to do it. I tried to do it in different ways, but was not able to do it - each time I faced incompatible data-type related issues.

To start using a blob you have to insert it into the database and then get it back. Sounds weird but that is how it is. Here is a very simple program to do this:
#include<occi.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace oracle::occi;
using namespace std;
int main()
try
    Environment *env = Environment::createEnvironment(Environment::OBJECT);
    Connection *conn = env->createConnection("hr","hr","");
    string stmt1 = "insert into blob_tab values (:1) ";
    string stmt2 = "select col1 from blob_tab";
    Blob blob(conn);
    blob.setEmpty(conn);
    Statement *stmtObj = conn->createStatement(stmt1);
    stmtObj->setBlob(1,blob);
    stmtObj->executeUpdate();
    conn->commit();
    Blob blob1(conn);
    Statement *stmtObj2 = conn->createStatement(stmt2);
    ResultSet *rs = stmtObj2->executeQuery();
    while(rs->next())
     blob1 = rs->getBlob(1);
    string stmt3 = "begin my_proc(:1) ;end;";
    Statement *stmtObj3 = conn->createStatement(stmt3);
    stmtObj3->setBlob(1,blob1);
    stmtObj3->executeUpdate();
catch (SQLException e)
    cout << e.getMessage();
/* The tables and procedure are primitive but ok for demo
    create table blob_tab(col1 blob);
    create or replace procedure my_proc(arg in blob)
    as
    begin
     -- just a putline here. you can do other more meaningful operations with the blob here
      dbms_output.put_line('hello');
   end;
}Hope this helps.
Thanks,

In RFC, no row types are allowed that contain table types or reference type

Hi,
I want to use an internal table in a Remote enabled function module (RFC). Is there any way to pass a table in a RFC?
kind regards,
Jonas

Hello Jonas,
Your subject line states correctly. You cannot pass tables as IMPORT/EXPORT params using a table type.
You have to use the TABLES param, pass the internal table with type spec. LIKE against the dictionary structure you have created.(As suggested by Vikranth)
