Select count * is not working

Hi everybody.
I've got a very strange problem, when i'm doing a select count* the result is giving me a value that is not the maximum (but when i check the database table the maximum value is another..)
Could it be that the select command is not executing against the table, rather than the SAP cache??
If this is the case, how can i avoid this?? I mean force the select command to execute against de DB table.
thanks a lot.

to get max value of a table u can use
Select max( fld )............
Bypassing the SAP buffer with the above additions is a means to increase the performance when accessing buffered database tables. To explicitly bypass the SAP buffer in the SELECT statement, always use the addition BYPASSING BUFFER instead of the implicit behavior of the additions stated above.

MDX -Children count function Not working in Case statement

Hi,
I am trying to create set when you slice with the Hierarchy member is leaf level , I want a output only that Leaf level .
and When I slice with the parent level , it has to give all the members below that parent level.
But the problem here is when I select child member or leaf member , The first condition in the Case is not working
WITH SET
TESTSET AS
CASE
WHEN
[Dimension].[Hierarchy].currentmember.children.count<0
THEN
[Dimension].[Hierarchy].currentmember
ELSE
DESCENDANTS([Dimension].[Hierarchy].Currentmember,,AFTER)
END
SELECT
WBSSET ON 1,
{} on 0
FROM
(SELECT {[Dimension].[Hierarchy].&[10]} ON COLUMNS FROM [CubeName])
Thanks,
Santosh

Hi Santosh,
I don't think Children count function not working in case statement, I have tested it on my local environment, here s the sample query for you reference.
with member
testset as
case
when
[Geography].[Geography].currentmember.children.count<10
then "X"
else "OK"
end
select testset on 0,
{[Geography].[Geography].[Country].members} on 1
from
[Adventure Works]
In your scenario, the issue might be caused by the query isself, you can try to use IsLeaf Funcion to achieve your requirement. Please refer to the links below.

Select() function is not working properly in solaris 10.

Hi ,
We are facing an issue with select() in Solaris 10. we had written a sample program to this issue.
Program name :- sel.cpp
int main()
struct timeval sleeptime;
sleeptime.tv_sec = 60;
printf("1\n");
select(0,NULL,NULL,NULL,&sleeptime);
printf("2");
return 0;
When i run this program in Solaris 9, its printing 1 and after one minute its printing 2.
When i run this program on Solaris 10, its printing 1 and 2 without waiting for 60 seconds.
When i tried to print tv_usec, its printing as 0 in solaris 9 and some garbage values in solaris 10.
I think because of that the above select function is not working properly in solaris 10.
Why the tv_usec is not taking 0 as default values in Solaris 10?
We are using our legacy code for past 20 years. So, before going to do any changes we are trying to find why this happenig like this.
Thanks a lot.

Srikanth.

It sounds to me that you've been lucky for 20 years then.
Local POD variables on the stack that aren't explicitly initialized can contain any value. Here's what I see in your app with dbx
(dbx) run
Running: sel
stopped in main at line 9 in file "sel.cpp"
    9      sleeptime.tv_sec = 60;
(dbx) print sleeptime
sleeptime = {
    tv_sec = -4198732
    tv_usec = 0
}That's on a Solaris 10 SPARC machine. If I try it on a Solaris 10 x86 box then I get
(dbx) print sleeptime
sleeptime = {
tv_sec = -830490588
tv_usec = 134510556
and I see the behaviour that you describe.

Select query is not working in BDC Program

Hi,
I am working in BDC for update valuation class for T-code mm01.Actually In this BDC i am using two recoding based on material type.
i am using two internal table : I_DATA and ITAB
Use I_DATA to hold excle data in which material No, plant , valuation type , valuation No. and ITAB for material No, material type Only.
So, i am fetching material Type ( MARA-MTART ) through select query. But Select query is not working. and also i did check MARA table according that Material Number then material no. exit in Mara Table.
Note : at run time I_DATA have 1 row but ITAB have 0 row ....
DATA: BEGIN OF I_DATA OCCURS 0,
MATNR TYPE MARA-MATNR,
WERKS TYPE MARC-WERKS,
BWTAR TYPE RMMG1-BWTAR,
VERPR TYPE BMMH1-VERPR,
BKLAS TYPE MBEW-BKLAS,
STATUS TYPE C,
END OF I_DATA.
DATA : BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0,
MATNR LIKE MARA-MATNR,
MTART LIKE MARA-MTART,
END OF ITAB.
Loop at I_DATA.
select matnr mtart from mara into table itab where matnr = I_DATA-matnr.
endloop.
Guide me..........

If you use your
Loop at I_DATA.
select matnr mtart from mara into table itab
    where matnr = I_DATA-matnr.
endloop.
At end of loop, itab will only contain the result of the last select, so use a
Loop at I_DATA.
select matnr mtart from mara APPENDING table itab
    where matnr = I_DATA-matnr.
endloop.
better
if I_DATA[] is not initial.
select matnr mtart from mara into table itab
    FOR ALL ENTRIES IN i_data where matnr = i_data-matnr.
endif.
Some Remarks
- If actually required (where does I_DATA come from, is it an external format, you need the internal value to use in SELECT statement), check via SE11 the correct [conversion exit|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/35/26b217afab52b9e10000009b38f974/content.htm] associated with domain MATNR (Is it truly ALPHA, and not something like MATN1, so [CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_INPUT|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?query=conversion_exit_matn1_input])
- You could try to use BAPI like [BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?query=bapi_material_savedata] and not BDC

Select button will not work

My 2gb nano's select button will suddenly not work. The rest of the clickwheel and buttons work find, but not the center select button.
I restored it to original settings. Then after it restarts, you have to select a language. The select button would still not work, but then I slid the "hold" button back and forth and the select button worked to allow me to chose a language. But at the next screen of options (Music/Photos/Extras, etc.) the select button will again not work. Sliding the hold button back and forth doesn't work. I cannot do a menu+select reset because I can't get the select button to respond.
I have made sure that I have the most updated softward for the nano.
Any suggestions?

My select button has not worked for a loong time.. It will occasionally work if I press for long enough or hard enough.. but not very often. This seems to be a common enough problem so there should be a way to fix it..I hope..

Select list pagination not working for big tables

Hi,
i am trying to view a table with large amount of data using tabular form. the pagination using select list is not working in this page. i have selected select list kind of pagination but it is showing "row range 1-15 16-30(with set pagination)' type of pagination. when i lowered the amount of data in the table the pagination type will automatically change to select list pagination. could you please tell me why this happens and any possible work around if any.
Thanks,
Jo

Hi Jo,
I don't know what you call a large amount of records, but the effect you describe might be intentional by apex.
The select list pagination would generate a selection tag with (number of records in table/15) options in your page HTML.
Although there isn't a hard limit to the number of options a select list can have there certainly is a limit to what your browser/pc can render.
Think about it
Let's say you table contains a million rows. this would result to a select list with 66666 options. Which your browser won't handle :)
I very possible the apex team resolved this by simply reverting to row range pagination when the number of select options would grow to large.

SELECT DISTINCT does not work - Another Problem!

Dear All
Previous Post
I just posted a thread, which has been answered by an expert. It's here:
SELECT DISTINCT does not work. Why?
My original problem was that the Query returned duplicate records, and SELECT DISTINCT did not work.
The solution was to change this select:
T0.[U_SupInv]      AS 'Link'
... to this:
CAST(T0.[U_SupInv] as nvarchar(100))      AS 'Link'
The amended Query worked.
New Problem
I just discovered that resolving the problem created a new one.
The field U_SupInv (Link) is in fact a UDF.
I created it so that all Suppliers' Invoices could be Scanned to pdf files, and these pdf could be linked
to the respective AP Invoice.
Originally, when I clicked 'Link' in my Query results, the pdf scan pops up.
When the Query is amended by adding CAST, the link becomes dead.
Help
Could anyone tell me how I can make SELECT DISTINCT work, as well keeping the LINKS live?
The main purpose of my Query is to help users view the pdf scans by clicking on the links.
Thanks
Leon Lai

Dear István Korös,
Thanks a lot for your answer.
I will test your suggestion tomorrow, as it's night and I am returning home now.
However, I do not think it will suit my requirements for the foll reasons:
- I worked hard to get rid of the need to enter anything in the @Scan2 field.
- This UDF was created solely as a text of instruction for my staff.
   Unfortunately I had to fill in something to make the Query work.
- The problem is that if the user forgets to click the drop-down arrow and leaves @Scan2
   blank, the query does not work.
- With the help of another expert, I succeeded in ignoring @Scan2 altogether.
- I posted only a simplified version of my Query on the forum, without the codes relating to eliminating the
need to enter something in @Scan2, so you may not be aware of my requirement.
- I hope you understand my reluctance. But I will try your suggestion nevertheless.
My Suggestion
I think using PCH1.VISORDER may be the solution.
If we select only those rows where visorder = 0, then
   - there will be no duplication
   - I need not use SELECT DISTINCT
   - All my LINKS to pdf files will be live because I need not use CAST
   - I may retain that part of my Query which permits ignoring @Scan2 altogether.
- A Dream!-
The problem is that I don't know how and where to place that VISORDER.
If you think I may be right, could you help me along that line?
Best Regards

Multi-select LOV does not work in forms

the multi select LOV does not work in the form.
the LOV works individually but in the form it does not work. it does not allow multiple selection from the list.
is there a workaround for this or is this a bug ...?
any ideas ...?
thanx a lot.
null

Right, we cannot store more than one value in a single column in a table :), we were getting a lot of requests to support multiple select LOVs but requirements were contradictory if not mutually exclusive.
The only sense it makes is when used together with user-defined object types (nested tables for example) but the current [application building]infrastructure we have does not support this. However, we are looking into this and this feature maybe implemented in a future release.

Thanks for your reply. But +"select count(*) from tsfhead"+ is hanging and +"select * from tsfhead where create_date = '26-OCT-12' "+ is showing records.It might be showing records, but not necessarily the correct records.
As sb points out, you are treating dates as strings rather than the DATE datatype. That means you could be querying the wrong data, and your query is also not safe in different environments. It could also effect the query execution plan. Also, as pointed out, you should be ideally using 4 digit years. There were many headaches caused by the use of 2 digit years that most companies corrected as part of the millenium bug fixes prior to the year 2000... well over a decade ago, and most good designs now ensure that 4 digit years are used as standard.
So your query would be better written as:
select * from tsfhead where create_date = TO_DATE('26-OCT-2012','DD-MON-YYYY')When you say:
select count(*) from tsfhead... is hanging, you say the table has around 59000 rows in it, and in reality that's a small amount of records, so a count(*) shouldn't take long at all, even doing a full table scan.
Post the explain plan for that simple count(*) query for us. (and ensure you use {noformat}{noformat} tags to keep the formatting on the forum, as described in {message:id=9360002})

Select count * is not working
