SQL QUERY IN ABAP

Dear ABAP Experts,
Is there any possibility to see the SQL statement for the query which are designed by the SQVI queries.?
Like SQL Server, we design the query in query designer and sql statements are also shown in it .
Regards,
Aneel

Yes we can design but to get the sql query we have to generate the report and then get the sql statement from that report.
But I want to get only sql statement immediately. If you have used the MS sql server , It gives sql statements under the query designer in the same window. I mean you can design the quuery and as well as write the sql statements in the same window.

How to execute an SQL query present in a string inside an ABAP program?

hello,
How to execute an SQL query present in a string inside an ABAP program

Raut,
You can execute Native SQl statements.
Ex: To use a Native SQL statement, you must precede it with the EXEC SQL statement, and follow it with the ENDEXEC statement as follows:
EXEC SQL [PERFORMING <form>].
<Native SQL statement>
ENDEXEC.
There is no period after Native SQL statements. Furthermore, using inverted commas (") or an asterisk (*) at the beginning of a line in a native SQL statement does not introduce a comment as it would in normal ABAP syntax. You need to know whether table and field names are case-sensitive in your chosen database.
In Native SQL statements, the data is transported between the database table and the ABAP program using host variables. These are declared in the ABAP program, and preceded in the Native SQL statement by a colon (:). You can use elementary structures as host variables. Exceptionally, structures in an INTO clause are treated as though all of their fields were listed individually.
If the selection in a Native SQL SELECT statement is a table, you can pass it to ABAP line by line using the PERFORMING addition. The program calls a subroutine <form> for each line read. You can process the data further within the subroutine.
As in Open SQL, after the ENDEXEC statement, SY-DBCNT contains the number of lines processed. In nearly all cases, SY-SUBRC contains the value 0 after the ENDEXEC statement. Cursor operations form an exception: After FETCH, SY-SUBRC is 4 if no more records could be read. This also applies when you read a result set using EXEC SQL PERFORMING.
EXEC SQL PERFORMING loop_output.
SELECT connid, cityfrom, cityto
INTO :wa
FROM spfli
WHERE carrid = :c1
ENDEXEC.

SQ01 DIsplay Problem (Can v write abap code ) Sql Query

Hi
Need help in SQL Query
I generated one sql query which has the following output in general .
Customer   name   description   amount
asrq1 sharekhan      Amount payed      10
asrq1 sharekhan     Amount Advance     20
asrq1 sharekhan    Amount due             30
but i need the output in the following way
Customer name AMount payed     Amount Advance                  Amount Due
asrq1   sharekhan 10    20     30
and iam new this sql query but came to know we can write code ..but iam unable to initiliaze to write
a peace of code as i dont know what are the select-options defined ..i saw in the include but didnt got it
% comes prefix of select-options,and iam unable to get he internal table which is displayed in the query .
can anyone help me in this answers will be awarded points.

First, I will suggest to go for ABAP report for this kinda requirement.
If you really want to go for it through SQ01, even then you will have to write some ABAP to display the records in one row. You will need to create three custom fields.
I will give Psudo for one field:
Field Name := ZAmountPayed
Select Amount_Payed into varAmountPayed from Table Where Emp# = '12345'
ZAmountPayed := varAmountPayed
Convert the above into relative ABAP code and create 2 more similar fields, and you should be all set.
You have to know the table names and any other calculations to get the right data.

Is it possible to write an abap code be SAP SQL query.(ECC 6)

hello guys,
Is it possible to write an abap code be SAP SQL query.
Scenario : table A has a field say f1 of length 10 and table B has a field say s1 of lenght 20. in sap sql i am able to link all the other tables but i am not able to link
table Af1 --->Table Bs1. as the length doesnot match. so is it possibel that using abap code I can pick 10 characters from table A field f1 adjust it to 20 characters using abap and map it to field s1 of table B.
Please let me know how to accomplish this if possible.
thanks in advance!!

Herm,
Adding code is done in the infoset.
Please do following:
> Goto SQ02
> Type in the infoset that the basis for your query, <change>
> Press <code> OR <shift><f8>
> Tou'll see 4 tabs: Extras, Selections, Code, Enhancements.
> GoTo tab Code
> Choose the coding section (<f4> gives you an overview)
> Enter the code.
You may set a breakpoint to see what the query in SQ01 will do with it.
Succes!

SQL query execution in DB02 hangs if record set is more than 50000

Hi,
We are facing issue in a report performance. The return is using native SQL query.
There are custom views created ar database level for pricing/maetrial and stock. The native sql query is written on these views. The report takes around 15 mins to run in background .
We are trying to analyse the native SQL query through DB02. I tried fetching records for one particular
custom view to make out if its indexing issue or something else.When i using TOP 35000 records with select query runs fine with this dataset or less than this . If i increase it to 40000 system doesn;t show anything in SQL ouptut. And above one lakh records system gives timeout.
The count in this view gives some 10 lakh records which I don't feel is v.v.huge that query that too native sql takes so much time.
Any help on this will be highly appreciated.
Regards
Madhu

what do you expect from that poor information.
do you change data or onyl select.
If you use SAP and ABAP, then you should also use Open SQL.
Otherwise it is possible to run the SQL Trace with Native SQL, it is anyway only Native SQL, what the trace sees.
Use package size and it will probably work fine.

Need to send success or failure message to BAPI of SQL query action block

Hi All,
I need to send success or failure message(i.e. 1 or 0) to BAPI which has been called below sql query action block in transaction
Here in SAP, i have created on BAPI with one import parameter and one export parameter.
In the sql query action block, it insert records in the database table. If it fail or success, that message(numeric value 1 or 0) has to send to SAP program through BAPI.
I have created a SAP ABAP program which sends message to MII Message listener through RFC then in the process rule message it will call transaction, in transaction, sql query will insert records into database table. if it success or fail, it will pass to BAPI. And i calling that BAPI in the same SAP ABAP Program to show in the output screen.
Here the issues, i am not getting the value from BAPI which has send by the transaction in MII.
SAP Jco, I have mapped in conf. links --> BAPI input with sql query sucess

Performance of native sql query detoriates

Dear Experts,
The performance of my native SQL query is bad. On the database the query takes less than 5 seconds to process. From my abap program I get a session timeout dump after 10 minutes. What might be the possible reason.
Warm Regards,
Abdullah

I am not a DBA, but this is a wild guess.
I have a native SQL query. It was running fine all morning(transported it to production today). By afternoon the report was not giving any output.
I went to the MS SQL query analyzer and executed the query, it returned the results in less than 5 seconds. The same query when I was executing from SAP using native SQL took more than 10 minutes and gave a dump(time exceeded).
My database guy asked me to execute the following on the database. Dbcc dbreindex('tablename')
The report is running fine since then. I am still not satisfied if this is the reason the performance is back on track, but yeah the report is running fine again. There seems to be some problem with the indexes.
I am using standard classes provided by SAP to execute my query and after execution the resultset reference object is being closed, I am closing the connection.
the code is as below.

Diff between sap query and abap query

diff between sap query and abap query

Hi,
ABAP query is mostly used by functional consultants.
SAP Query :
Purpose
The SAP Query application is used to create lists not already contained in the SAP standard system. It has been designed for users with little or no knowledge of the SAP programming language ABAP. SAP Query offers users a broad range of ways to define reporting programs and create different types of reports such as basic lists, statistics, and ranked lists.
Features
SAP Query's range of functions corresponds to the classical reporting functions available in the system. Requirements in this area such as list, statistic, or ranked list creation can be met using queries.
All the data required by users for their lists can be selected from any SAP table created by the customer.
To define a report, you first have to enter individual texts, such as titles, and select the fields and options which determine the report layout. Then you can edit list display in WYSIWYG mode whenever you want using drag and drop and the other toolbox functions available.
ABAP Query,:
As far as I Believe, is the use of select statements in the ABAP Programming. This needs a knowledge of Open SQL commands like Select,UPdtae, Modify etc. This has to be done only by someone who has a little bit of ABAP experience.
To sum up, SAP queries are readymade programs given by SAP, which the user can use making slight modification like the slection texts, the tables from which the data is to be retrieved and the format in which the data is to be displayed.ABAP queries become imperative when there is no such SAP query existing and also when there is a lot of customizing involved to use a SAP Query directly

MultiProvider: How to decipher the underlying SQL query

Hello Guys,
I have joined 2 cubes using MultiProvider. I created a query which takes Key Figure values from both cubes. When I go to "Display SQl Query", I see 2 separare queries for each cube separately. I don't see a join between them.
If I have to write the same query directly in ABAP, then how should I go about it?
Also any idea what does the statement below means..I see this in every MultiProvider query
STAR_TRANSFORMATION FACT( &TABLE& ) &SUBSTITUTE LITERALS&

Hello:
- You could never write a BI query in ABAP - that is not a real possibility, don't bother trying this, it's not reasonable (sorry).
- MultiProvider is a Union operation, not a Join. Queries against to a MultiProvider are split into sub-queries, where joins are performed on the tables of a cube, then the subqueries are merged in a Union operation.
- You can see more information about the SQL in RSRT (including a MultiProvider explain)
- STAR_TRANSFORMATION is a feature of the Oracle RDBMS, where the optimizer recognizes that the join operation against the tables in a star schema (InfoCube) can be more efficiently performed using a special technique, as opposed to ordinary join operations (like you might see in an OLTP system). The optimizer automatically uses STAR_TRANSFORMATION to ensure that efficient joins are executed.
Thanks for any points you choose to assign (the way of saying thanks in SDN).

What is SQL Query

Dear all,
what is meant by SQL Query?
I have a report which is directly in production and not in development.its a user created program.
some one said that it is SQL query.
What is meant by it ?
Is there any name for that SQL query?
If yes,how can I find it?

Hi,
SQL Query means select statement u r getting the data from the database table.
Standard SQL
SQL (Structured Query Language) is a largely standardized language for accessing relational databases. It can be divided into three areas:
·         Data Manipulation Language (DML)
Statements for reading and changing data in database tables.
·         Data Definition Language (DDL)
Statements for creating and administering database tables.
·         Data Control Language (DCL)
Statements for authorization and consistency checks.
Each database has a programming interface that allows you to access the database tables using SQL statements. The SQL statements in these programming interfaces are not fully standardized. To access a specific database system, you must refer to the documentation of that system for a list of the SQL statements available and their correct syntax.
The Database Interface
To make the R/3 System independent of the database system with which you use it despite the differences in the SQL syntax between various databases, each work process on an application server has a database interface. The R/3 System communicates with the database by means of this interface. The database interface converts all of the database requests from the R/3 System into the correct Standard SQL statements for the database system. To do this, it uses a database-specific component that shields the differences between database systems from the rest of the database interface. You choose the appropriate layer when you install the R/3 System.
There are two ways of accessing the database from a program - with Open SQL or Native SQL.
Open SQL
Open SQL statements are a subset of Standard SQL that is fully integrated in ABAP. They allow you to access data irrespective of the database system that the R/3 installation is using. Open SQL consists of the Data Manipulation Language (DML) part of Standard SQL; in other words, it allows you to read (SELECT) and change (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) data.
Open SQL also goes beyond Standard SQL to provide statements that, in conjunction with other ABAP constructions, can simplify or speed up database access. It also allows you to buffer certain tables on the application server, saving excessive database access. In this case, the database interface is responsible for comparing the buffer with the database. Buffers are partly stored in the working memory of the current work process, and partly in the shared memory for all work processes on an application server. Where an R/3 System is distributed across more than one application server, the data in the various buffers is synchronized at set intervals by the buffer management. When buffering the database, you must remember that data in the buffer is not always up to date. For this reason, you should only use the buffer for data which does not often change. You specify whether a table can be buffered in its definition in the ABAP Dictionary.
Native SQL
Native SQL is only loosely integrated into ABAP, and allows access to all of the functions contained in the programming interface of the respective database system. Unlike Open SQL statements, Native SQL statements are not checked and converted, but instead are sent directly to the database system. When you use Native SQL, the function of the database-dependent layer is minimal. Programs that use Native SQL are specific to the database system for which they were written. When writing R/3 applications, you should avoid using Native SQL wherever possible. It is used, however, in some parts of the R/3 Basis System - for example, for creating or changing table definitions in the ABAP Dictionary.
The ABAP Dictionary
The ABAP Dictionary, part of the ABAP Workbench, allows you to create and administer database tables. Open SQL contains no statements from the DDL part of Standard SQL. Normal application programs should not create or change their own database tables.
The ABAP Dictionary uses the DDL part of Open SQL to create and change database tables. It also administers the ABAP Dictionary in the database. The ABAP Dictionary contains metadescriptions of all database tables in the R/3 System. Only database tables that you create using the ABAP Dictionary appear in the Dictionary. Open SQL statements can only access tables that exist in the ABAP Dictionary.
Authorization and Consistency Checks
The DCL part of Standard SQL is not used in R/3 programs. The work processes within the R/3 System are logged onto the database system as users with full rights. The authorizations of programs or users to read or change database tables is administered within the R/3 System using the R/3 authorization concept. Equally, transactions must ensure their own data consistency using the R/3 locking concept. For more information, refer to Authorization Concept and Programming Database Updates.
Plzz reward points if it helps.

Checking of SQL Query Result

Hi All,
How can i view result of SQL query in SAP-ABAP. Actually I want to see result of following query :
select * from ZMSTKCALC where werks_d <> werks_main.
I am new to SAP territory.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Yogesh,
Welcome to the SDN world!!!
You have to use WRITE statement to see the result of the SQL query.
The result of the SQL query need to be stored in a work area.
For example:
data: T_ZMSTKCALC LIKE ZMSTKCALC occurs 0 with header line.
select * from ZMSTKCALC into table T_ZMSTKCALC where werks <> werks_main.
loop at T_ZMSTKCALC.
write:/ T_ZMSTKCALC-FIELD1,
T_ZMSTKCALC-FIELD2.
endloop.
Thanks

       nvl(kbytes_max,kbytes_alloc) Max_Size,
       decode( kbytes_max, 0, 0, (kbytes_alloc/kbytes_max)*100) pct_max_used from ( select sum(bytes)/1024 Kbytes_free,
              max(bytes)/1024 largest,

where a.tablespace_name = b.tablespace_name order by 1;

Thanks,

Hi Prashant,
Native SQL commands in ABAP are placed between EXEC SQL and ENDEXEC. You can place all your statements in between these EXEC SQL and ENDEXEC in a report.
EXEC SQL [PERFORMING <form>].
<Native SQL statement>
ENDEXEC.
