SELECT option question....

Hi all,
What is the meaning of FOR ALL ENTRIES IN.. as in the code below: where can I find the documentation of FOR ALL?
Code:
SELECT * INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE L_SPETAB
          FROM VBAK
          FOR ALL ENTRIES IN LVBUK
          WHERE VBELN = LVBUK-VBELN
          AND   LIFSK IN LIFSPE
          AND   VKORG = VKORG
          AND   VTWEG IN VTWEG
          AND   SPART IN SPART.
What is the meaning of IN (as in the last line of code above)?
Thanks,
Charles.

Hi,
From online help ...
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/fc/eb3a1f358411d1829f0000e829fbfe/content.htm
Tabular Conditions:
The WHERE clause of the SELECT statement has a special variant that allows you to derive conditions from the lines and columns of an internal table:
SELECT ... FOR ALL ENTRIES IN <itab> WHERE <cond> ...
<cond> may be formulated as described above. If you specify a field of the internal table <itab> as an operand in a condition, you address all lines of the internal table. The comparison is then performed for each line of the internal table. For each line, the system selects the lines from the database table that satisfy the condition. The result set of the SELECT statement is the union of the individual selections for each line of the internal table. Duplicate lines are automatically eliminated from the result set. If <itab> is empty, the addition FOR ALL ENTRIES is disregarded, and all entries are read.
The internal table <itab> must have a structured line type, and each field that occurs in the condition <cond> must be compatible with the column of the database with which it is compared. Do not use the operators LIKE, BETWEEN, and IN in comparisons using internal table fields. You may not use the ORDER BY clause in the same SELECT statement.
You can use the option FOR ALL ENTRIES to replace nested select loops by operations on internal tables. This can significantly improve the performance for large sets of selected data.

  • Selection Option question in Info Package

    We would like to stop update Master Data if no master data exists for a characteristics. I found there is a selection options in Info Package Update Tab called "Do not update data if no master data exists for a characteristic"
    I added a row in one of the InfoObject which has been used in another InfoObject as an Attribute. I selected this option in the IP and tried to re-load Master Data, and it didn't fail.
    What does this option do?
    Thanks!

    For example:
    InfoObject ITEM and ITMPLN. ITEM is an Attribute in ITMPLN.
    ITEM has
    Item    Description
    001     Test 1
    002     Test 2
    ITMPLN has
    Project No            Item         Description
    A                         001          Test A
    B                         002          Test B
    <b>C                         004          Test C</b>
    After I load the last row to ITMPLN, I would like to see the error message instead of adding <b>004</b> into ITEM InfoObject. Do you know how to do it?
    Thank you!

    Well, if it is supposed to be a Webapplication and you need to generate HTML via PLSQL then you should code something like this:

       OWA.cgi_var_val (1) := 1;

  • Quick question re select-options

    Hi
    I am relatively new to ABAP but have a quick question:
    I need to create a select-options which does the following:
    1. Allows ONLY "equals" signs
    2. Disallows intervals
    3. Disallows the use of ranges in the multiple selection box.
    4. Allows multiple individual selections.
    I can achieve most using the following:
    select-options s_knvh for knvh-kunnr no intervals.
    However, this still allows ranges using the multiple selection box, and also allows the "not equal to" option.
    Adding the "no-extension" syntax simply removes my ability to use multiple individual entries.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • Question regarding SELECT-OPTIONS

    All,
    When I create a select-option in my program like:
    SELECT-OPTIONS: s_role FOR AGR_DEFINE-AGR_NAME.
    It does not work. To make it work I need to define AGR_DEFINE with the tables statement.
    My question is why? In my opinion I just make a reference to a dictionary object. The tables statement is more or less used to create a headerline for a used database table. I don't see any relation in that. Still it is needed to make it work. Any ideas?

    This has been the syntax for select-options since the begining. You need the definition of 'FOR' defined before you use it in the select-option.
    I guess the interpreter/compiler was designed to understand and inherit the properties of the referred field if you use 'LIKE' or 'TYPE' but not when you are using 'FOR'. Since the LOW and HIGH fields of the select-option inherits the properties of the 'FOR' field, the properties of it are needed to be defined before. Why, I still don't know, but that is the design.
    For some strange reason, SYST(or SY) fields reference will work even if you don't define them before. Is there a clue here? System structure/fields seem to be available for referencing but not static database table fields.

  • Issue with Select options in select statement - ABAP Question

    Hi
    I am facing an issue with select options. Select statement is returning sy-subrc as 4.
    I wrote the program as below:
    SELECT-OPTIONS:
    s_kunnr FOR bsad-kunnr,
    s_lifnr FOR bsak-lifnr,
    s_gjahr FOR bsad-gjahr,
    s_bukrs FOR bsad-bukrs,
    s_saknr FOR bsad-saknr,
    s_budat FOR bsak-budat.
    In start of selection I have written the select statement as
    SELECT * FROM bsak INTO TABLE lt_bsak
    WHERE bukrs IN s_bukrs AND lifnr = s_lifnr AND gjahr IN s_gjahr AND budat IN s_budat AND saknr IN s_saknr.
    In selection screen I have not entered any values and executed the program. I am not getting any result. When I debug that, sy-subrc is 4 at above select statement. But table has records.
    If am removing the "lifnr = s_lifnr " condition in select then select is returning values.
    I am not getting where I made the mistake. Please suggest.
    Thank you
    Hanu

    Hi,
    The problem here with where condition select option lifnr = s_lifnr.
    Use below select query.
    SELECT * FROM bsak INTO TABLE lt_bsak
    WHERE bukrs IN s_bukrs
        AND lifnr     IN s_lifnr
        AND gjahr   IN s_gjahr
        AND budat  IN s_budat
        AND saknr  IN s_saknr.
    s_lifnr is a select option and you are passing it as parameter lifnr = s_lifnr.
    if you want to pass this s_lifnr as single vale then pass in below mentioned way.
    lifnr = s_lifnr-low

  • Hi Question On Select-options

    Hi Experts,
                          I am having  a following code where i kept  no intervals but there is
    extension part inside it u have ranges is it possible to deactivate that ranges option  in the extension part so that u can have only single values .
                            select-option:s_bukrs for t001-bukrs no intervals.
    Thanks&Regards
    Bhaskar Rao.M

    Hi Bhaskar,
    Use the following definition:
    SELECT-OPTIONS s_bukrs for t001-bukrs NO INTERVALS NO-EXTENSION.
    Alternately u can define S_BUKRS as a parameter since the above clause will permit only 1 value.

  • Question on Select-Options

    HI,
    I have one field on Selection screen It's name is ZTEXT. My requirement is it should take input upto 90 characters but the system is allowing max 45 characters only.
    I have tried like below.
    Select-options : Ztext for adr6-SMTP_ADDR.
    Here SMTP_ADDR lenght is 241 characters but eventhough it is accepting upto 45 characters input only in the selection screen.
    could you please guide me how it will accept upto 90 characters input in the selection screen.
    Thank you very much advacne.
    -Kumar

    You can not do that in a selection screen.  You will need to use a custom dynpro.  The max for even a parameter in a selection screen is 79 I believe and the max screen size is 80.

    HI Mani,
    It's common mix ABAP Procedural with ABAP Objects in the same program.
    You should use the same way used in ABAP procedural program as Marco Cerdelli sad.
    But inside ABAP OBJECTS classes you can't use is these statement type.

  • Checking against Select-Options with "CP" using "IF value IN select_option"

    Dear experts,
    first of all: I'm sorry, if this question already should have been asked and answered!
    I tried quite a lot of search terms but didn't find anything helpful.
    We are using a statement like "IF value IN select_option" to perform comparisons after the Select-Options have been used in a SELECT statement. This logical expression fails (compared to the results of the DB-SELECT) whenever a select-option line contains the option CP (Contains Pattern). To be more specific: The case sensitivity of the LOW value doesn't seem to play a role any more. A variable with the value 'ABCD' would be positively checked against a select-option with OPTION 'CP' and LOW 'abc*', whereas this value wouldn't have been selected if the select-option had been used in a DB-SELECT.
    Does anybody know a workaround?
    Thanks in advance
    Andreas

    Dear Keshav,
    it's an own field in an own table, defined as CHAR of length 140 (lowercase allowed), reflecting to a line of remittance info of an account statement. A regular Select-Option for this field is provided in a report which works perfectly fine regarding the case sensitivity. For reasons I don't want to point out in detail we need to check a value in this field against the select-option without selecting it from the db again.
    Let's assume that a field remittance_info contains the value 'ABCD'.
    A line of the select-option table looks like this:
    select_option_table-SIGN = 'I'
    select_option_table-OPTION = 'CP'
    select_option_table-LOW = 'abc*'.
    Then an ABAP statement such as
    IF remittance_info IN select_option_table.
    * would be true !!!
    ENDIF.
    but wouldn't deliver a result in a SELECT such as
    SELECT * FROM my_table INTO TABLE my_internal_table WHERE remittance_info IN select_option_table.
    because of the differences in lower/upper case.
    regards

  • How to get all the values in the Select-option.

    Hi,
    I got the select-option field so_week, for eg. If I give 200923 to 200926 (year and week)  in the selection screen and then I need to pass this value (200923) to the FM 'ZWEEK_GET_FIRST_DAY' to get the first day of the week.

        RS_WEEK-LOW = S_WEEK-LOW + V_ADD.
        APPEND RS_WEEK TO RT_WEEK. "RT_WEEK--> Will contain the week values

  • About select option

    Hi experts,
    In my alv report there is one field SERNR serial number, for this i have to put select option. My problem is this field doesn't exist in the table(Zmanifest) from where i'm fetching data. So i'm not able to mention this select option in my select query for that particular table. This field is existing in EQUI table and have no relation defined between zmanifest table & EQUI.
    In my internal table i have all fields of zmanifest & this sernr; to fulfill this field logic is
    Serial Number is combination of P_PREFIX-(dash)P_SERIAL fields in zmanifest. I have fetch all data including SERNR by above logic at my grid; but facing problem in defining SELECT-OPTIONS for Sernr.
    Please help.
    Points Sure.
    Anshuman

    Hi,
    do like this.
    take the lenght of P_PREFIX
    take the lenght of P_SERIAL
    add the length.
    for exmaple :
    P_PREFIX size is 4.
    P_SERIAL size is 10
    now declare the variable like this.
    data : v_selop(15).
    Note : 4101 = 15, so i declared the variable with lenght of 15.
    select-options : so_field for v_selop.
    now use off-set in your select query like this:
    where PREFIX = v_selop+0(4)
       and SERIAL = v_selop+5(10)
    it will work if you are using variable v_selop as a parameter else if you are using select option you have to break v_selop into two different select option like this:
    s_prefix type prefix,
    s_serial type serial.
    loop at v_selop.
    s_prefix-* = v_selop-. "      (  = sign, option)
    s_serial-* = v_selop-*.
    s_prefix-low = v_selop-low+0(4).
    s_serial-low = v_selop-low+5(10).
    s_prefix-high = v_selop-high+0(4).
    s_serial-high = v_selop-high+5(10).
    endloop.
    now use following select query
    where PREFIX in s_prefix
       and SERIAL in s_serial.
    it will surely wrok.

    In my jsp, I gain option values for a list of 'types' and 'names'
