SAP ABAP Select Statement/ Queries

Hi.
select * from mver where matnr= itab-matnr
and werks = itab-bwkey
and perkz = 'P'
and gjahr = gjahr1.
there are option like 'P' and 'M' i need to select both of them like 'P/M'.
how can u do tht.
both "m" and "P" period buckets shd be populated with data and need to be added together to pull the zm001127.

Hi,
Create a range and then append both the value 'P' and 'M' to the internal table and use the range in the where clause.
data: r_range type range of mver-perkz with header line.
r_range-sign = 'I'.
r_range-option = 'EQ'.
r_range-low = 'P'.
APPEND R_RANGE.
r_range-sign = 'I'.
r_range-option = 'EQ'.
r_range-low = 'M'.
APPEND R_RANGE.
select * from mver where matnr= itab-matnr
and werks = itab-bwkey
and perkz IN R_RANGE
and gjahr = gjahr1.

ABAP select statements takes too long

Hi,
I have a select statement as shown below.
SELECT * FROM BSEG INTO TABLE ITAB_BSEG
 WHERE BUKRS = CO_CODE
 AND BELNR IN W_DOCNO
 AND GJAHR = THISYEAR
 AND AUGBL NE SPACE.
This select statement runs fine in all of R/3 systems except for 1. The problem that is shown with this particular system is that the query takes very long ( up to an hour for if W_DOCNO consists of 5 entries). Sometimes, before the query can complete, an ABAP runtime error is encountered as shown below:
Database error text........: "ORA-01555: snapshot too old: rollback segment
number 7 with name "PRS_5" too small?"
Internal call code.........: "[RSQL/FTCH/BSEG ]"
Please check the entries in the system log (Transaction SM21). 
Please help me on this issue. However, do not give me suggestions about selecting from a smaller table (bsik, bsak) as my situation does not permit it.
I will reward points.

dont use select * ....
instead u declare ur itab with the required fields and then in select refer to the fields in the select .
data : begin of itab,
 f1
 f2
 f3
 f4
 end of itab.
select f1 f2 f3 f4 ..
 into table itab
from bseg where ...
. this improves the performance .
select * is not advised .

ABAP Select statement performance (with nested NOT IN selects)

Hi Folks,
I'm working on the ST module and am working with the document flow table VBFA. The query takes a large amount of time, and is timing out in production. I am hoping that someone would be able to give me a few tips to make this run faster. In our test environment, this query take 12+ minutes to process.

Cheers,

I am sending u some of the performance isuues that are to be kept in mind while coding.
1.Donot use Select *...... instead use Select <required list>......
2.Donot fetch data from CLUSTER tables.
3.Donot use Nested Select statements as. U have used nested select which reduces performance to a greater extent.
Instead use views/join .
Also keep in mind that not use join condition for more for more than three tables unless otherwise required.
So split select statements into three or four and use Select ......for all entries....
4.Extract the data from the database atonce consolidated upfront into table.
i.e. use INTO TABLE <ITAB> clause instead of using
Select----
End Select.
5.Never use order by clause in Select ..... statement. instead use SORT<itab>.
6.When ever u need to calculate max,min,avg,sum,count use AGGREGATE FUNCTIONS and GROUP BY clause insted of calculating by userself..
7.Donot use the same table once for Validation and another time for data extraction.select data only once.
8.When the intention is for validation use Select single ....../Select.......up to one rows ......statements.
9.If possible always use array operations to update the database tables.
10.Order of the fields in the where clause select statement must be in the same order in the index of table.
11.Never release the object unless throughly checked by st05/se30/slin.
12.Avoid using identical select statements.

I doubt you'll be able to do so in a straight way. I would try to use some imaginative ways, like define an addition internal table with the key fields of your query, and a "long string" field, where I'll add the returned rows.
Or something like that. if you know the max number of rows this kind of join will return, add that number times the fields needed (parvw1, parnr1, parvw2, parnr2....) and use a LOOP to populate it.

ABAP select statement !!

Hi All,
I want to write a query on SOOD table like:
SELECT OBJTP OBJYR OBJNO OBJDES OWNNAM FROM SOOD INTO TABLE IT_SOOD
       WHERE OBJDES LIKE 'String%' AND
             ( SDDAT BETWEEN LV_LASTRUN AND SY-DATUM )      AND
             ( SDTIM BETWEEN LV_LASTTIM AND SY-UZEIT ).
but this is not returning me data between the last run date/ last run time and current date/ time.
Can anybody suggest how to modify the above query in order to fetch correct data.
Thanks in Advance !!

If the last run date was 01.09.2009 and the last run time was 11:00, this code will pick up data for all dates from 01.09.2009 but only if the time value is > 11:00; so if there was a run at 09:00 on 03.09.2009 you won't pick up that record - and I'm assuming that you would want to pick up that record.
I think you should only be applying the time check to records where the date = LV_LASTRUN and for later records you should just be checking the date. Something like:
WHERE (      (            sddat = lv_lastrun
                            AND sdtim > lv_lasttim   )
                 OR (            sddat > lv_lastrun )

Problems with Hints in abap code to use an index in a Select statement

Hi,
I want to use an especific index in a select statement but I can´t get it. I use de next statement:
SELECT ltaklgnum ltaktanum ltakvbeln ltaptapos ltapnltyp ltappvqui
 FROM ltak AS ltak INNER JOIN ltap AS ltap
 ON ltaktanum = ltaptanum
 AND ltaklgnum = ltaplgnum
 INTO TABLE l_t_tanum_silo
 WHERE ltap~lgnum EQ ip_lgnum
 AND ltap~pquit EQ ' '
 AND ltak~lgnum EQ ip_lgnum
 AND ltak~kquit EQ ' '
 AND ltak~queue EQ ip_queue
 %_HINTS DB2 ''.
We have DB2 for Linux Unix and Windows 9.5 as DB system.
How can I fix this?
Thanks a lot.
Regards

The DB2 for Linux Unix and Windows is coded DB6 for SAP and not DB2
Look at the following OSS notes
- [Note 129385 - Database hints in Open SQL|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/129385]
- [Note 150037 - Database hints in Open SQL for DB6 (DB2 for LUW)|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/150037]
- [Note 1270314 - DB6: DB2 9.5 Perf. degrad. for queries with INLIST clause|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1270314]
- [Note 868888 - DB6: Optimization Guidelines|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/868888]
You should use a
SELECT ltak~lgnum ltak~tanum ltak~vbeln ltap~tapos ltap~nltyp ltap~pvqui
FROM ltak AS ltak INNER JOIN ltap AS ltap
ON ltak~tanum = ltap~tanum
 AND ltak~lgnum = ltap~lgnum
INTO TABLE l_t_tanum_silo
WHERE ltap~lgnum EQ ip_lgnum
 AND ltap~pquit EQ ' '
 AND ltak~lgnum EQ ip_lgnum
 AND ltak~kquit EQ ' '
 AND ltak~queue EQ ip_queue
%_HINTS DB6 '<IXSCAN TABLE=''LTAP'' INDEX=''"LTAP~M"'' />'.
In note 868888 there is a sample for a join.
SELECT A~TABSPACE
FROM TADB6 AS A
JOIN IADB6 AS B ON A~TABART = B~TABART
%_HINTS DB6 '<NLJOIN><IXSCAN TABLE=''IADB6'' />'
 DB6 '<IXSCAN TABLE=''TADB6'' /></NLJOIN>'.

Does BOBJ support OR select statement against SAP BW

Hello,
We are looking at BOBJ for reporting against SAP BW, and I was wondering if BOBJ supports select OR statements and select AND statements in the same report.
For example.
We have three select parameters:
Company Code
Document Type
Vendor
The business would like to run the following select statements:
Company Code = 1010 AND
Document Type = WE OR
Vendor = 123123
or from the same query, run the report this way:
Company Code = 1010 AND
Document Type = WE AND
Vendor = 123123
Is this possible? If yes, what options do we have.

Hi Bill,
there are several options to achieve this:
In the BI Query you have a parameter type that is called "selection option" which allows the end-user to create very complex selection.
In Crystal Reports you can create your own filter / parameters but you would have to pay attention to make sure that the parameters are being send down to the server.
in Web Intelligence / a Universe you could do the same like in CR.

Edit an object's select statement of OLAP universe SAP BW

Hi everybody
I am new at working with Olap Universes BW, and I have to edit one universe SAP BW, I don't know if I can to use substring function on a select statement, for example substring([0D_DIV].[LEVEL01],5,5), I try to use this function but I have a error,
Could you help me? I need to returns part of a string, is correct to do it on a universe or is better to do at BW.

Hi,
First of all I recommend you read the documentation that gives you information about OLAP universes and especially SAP BW universes.
I also recommend to download documents related to SAP universes deployment, administration and customization:
[OLAP Universes - how to samples and recommendations |https://wiki.wdf.sap.corp/wiki/display/globalregions/OLAPUniverses-howtosamplesand+recommendations]
[SAP Integration |https://wiki.wdf.sap.corp/wiki/display/globalregions/SAP+Integration]
Now you can customize expression using MDX in OLAP universes. MDX expressions must be enclosed with <EXPRESSION></EXPRESSION> XML tags.
Unfortunately SAP BW MDX does not support calculations that return string or date values.
The onlyway to return string is to use NAME or UNOIQUENAME attribute.
See answers I already in the forum: [Forum answer |Re: Create new dimension on top of SAP BW data]
