Unicode and Date fields crash the kernel

Hi,
we ran into a bug in the query parser while testing our system with japanese dates, that crashes the kernel when a date/time/timestamp field is compared to a literal that contains a unicode character.
For instance,
select * from dual where now() = '2011年10月12日'
will crash the kernel (7.7 or 7.8)
Normally the date field should be compared only with strings in ISO format, but we fear some wrongly written query will crash our production database.
Is that a known bug and is there a workaround ?
Guillaume

Hi Guillaume,
this is a bug whereas not a known one up to now. We will solve this ASAP and have created an entry in our error database: [1239879|http://maxdb.sap.com/webpts?wptsdetail=yes&ErrorType=0&ErrorID=1239879].
Unfortunately there is no other workaround for this error than not to use UNICODE characters in those queries.
Thank you for reporting.
Best regards,
Steffen

I have a requirement to biuld the Info set with join conditon on two DSO's the info objects which i am using in the JOin condition are defined as data fieds in one DSO and defined as key fields in another DSO, is it possible to define join condition on key fields and data fields.
The two info objects are
                       0AC_DOC_NO
                       0ITEM_NUM
These two info objects are defined as data fields in DSO :   0LIV_DS1   Invocie verificaion
                                                        key fields in DSO:    0FIAP_0o3 FI AP Line Item
Please suggest me is it possible to define join the condtion on the data fields and key feilds.
Thanks
Best regards

Hi
yes you can create join, you will get any issue in reporting level.
example: Say i want to create Info Set on 0MATERIAL and Sales DSO.
In 0MATERIAL Info Object it is key filed, but in my DSO 0MATERIAL is data field.Still we can create
Creation of join is dependent on fields common in your source objects.

DSO - What key fields and data fields in dso

Hi experts,
I need to create a dso in between the cube and 2 data sources(2lis_11_vaitm, 2lis_12_vcscl) to stage the data. My question is: what key fields and data fields to choose for the dso? is there a standard dso to copy? please explain in detail the model to set up, whether to connect both the ds's to dso and then to cube or one ds to dso and the other to the cube. more details will help.

Check this for standard DSO:

Key fields and data fields in a DSO ??

i have a question regarding key fields and data fields in a Standard DSO...
i am using 2 datasources to build a open sales report 2LIS_11_VASTH and 2LIS_11_VASTI i am pulling in data from these 2 data sources to a DSO and i am wondering what infoobjects should be in the key fields and data fields .....does this reflect back to table VBUK and VBUP tables and does the key field in the DSO have to be the key fields in VBUK and VBUP tables ???? or what really should be included as key fields and data fields ????
please help....

If you look at the various SD tables, VBELN and POSNR are commonly used as the document number and document line item.
For VBAP and VBUP, it's referring to the Sales Order Line Item with the columns VBELN and POSNR as the key for both tables. However, if you look at the LIPS table, which is the Delivery Line Item table, it too has VBELN and POSNR as the key. Likewise, the VTTP table, which is the Shipment Line Item table, also has VBELN and POSNR as the key.
While using RSOSFIELDMAP as a map is a fairly good "rule of thumb", it still needs to be used with a level of skepticism.

Prerequsites for deciding Key fields and data fields

Hi
I would like to know the criteria to decide upon KEY fields and Data fields for an infoprovider.

Hi,
What is a Key field in a Database and How should I choose one?
Keys are crucial to a table structure for many reasons, some of which are identified below:
They ensure that each record in a table is precisely identified.
They help establish and enforce various types of integrity.
They serve to establish table relationships.
Datafields may be Charecteristics and it may be keyfigures

Key Fields and Data Fields in ODS

Hi Guru's ,
Can u Explain what are Key Field's and Data Field's in ODS,and How they work.
Thanx in Advance.

Hi Pradeep,
An ODS key fields forms a unique combination of chars according to which data in the ODS will be summed up. Data fields are additional fields, chars or key figures.
For example, you have the following key fields:
Doc No, Doc line item (item no in the doc) and you load the following data:
Doc# Item# Amount CALDAY
1234 1        100       26.09.2005
1234 1        150       27.09.2005
1234   2        300      27.09.2005
1235   1        400      27.09.2005
The first two rows with the same key fields (1234-1) will be aggregated and into ODS will go amount of 250.
What I said is true if for Amount key figure the Add option is set.
But if you set an Overwrite option, then the second record will overwrite the first one and only amount of 150 will go to ODS!
But if CALDAY is also a key field, then into ODS will go all records without any aggregation, because key fields combination is different for all records.
So, ODS key fields choice and KFs settings are very important for data aggregation in the ODS.

Eugene

Chart report Condition fields and Data fields

Hi all,
i have tried chart report by adding two condion fields and one data field, the report is more meaning full in this scenario. the first condition field is taken as x-axis, the 2nd condition fields is taken as legend.
while adding more condition fields and data fields, i feel its not showing meaningfull data.
can anyone explain how the condition fields and data fileds are manipulated by crystal report.
i am using CR XI R2 Server.
Thanks
Padmanaban V

i am using Crystal Report XI R2 RAS Embedded in my server.
as we can add any number condition fields programatically using the method
ConditionField.Add(FieldObj), i would like to know how these fields are manipulated internally by the RAS server.
that means, what is the significance of condition fieldobject 1, condition fieldobject 2,condition fieldobject 3 etc...
if i add more than two condition fields , RAS Chart Report always returns 0 as legend value for all legends.
Thanks in advance

Padmanaban V

Identify key fields and data fields

Hi
i have datasource 0co_om_cca_9 .
i want build 1 DSO, how can i identify what are key fields and data fields to build DSO based on that datasource.

Hi sunnel,
The DSO are like 2-D database tables.
We use the technical keys here in counterpart to the business keys in Infocubes.
The key fields are the one based on which the records are identified uniquely in the database table.
And the data fields are the ones which are aggrgated or summarised or overwritten based on the value in key filed.
For example:
The ID no.s of the employees will be unique and it can be used as a key field.
The feilds like the Salary taken by the employee every month :"SALARY"
and the no. of leaves they taken: " NO. OF LEAVES" can be used as data fields.
So that the salary or the leaves taken by a particular employee can be aggregated based on her/his ID no.
The key fields in DSO doesnty mean Key figures.The key field means any unique key or a key based on which the records are sorted in the DSO
And key figures are the data fields.Some of the Characteristics can also be data fields in DSO.
Please give points if u r satisfied wit the information
Also let me know if u hav any doubt and if any thing is wrong.
Regards,
Kalpana M

Defining Key -field and data fields

Hi all
i have to define Key-Fields and data-Fields for a DSO(say DSO3).
DSO1 is a combination of DSO2 and DSO3..
DSO1 and DSO2 are SAP defined DSOs.
DSO3 is a User defined DSO.
my assumption:
   DSO3 has 30 fields
   DSO2 has 16 fields.
   can i create the DSO3 with remaining 14 fields which is there in DSO1?
   or i have to create the DSO3 with 30 fields(all DSO1 fields).
can any body explain....
Thanks & Regards
krishna

The problem is not how many fields you create where, the issue is where is the data is going to come from.
Since you data is going from DSO3 to DSO1and if the field is already getting populated in DSO1 from DSO2, then you don't have to worry about populating those fields again, unless and otherwise you want to overwrite them.
Remember any fields exist in both DSO3 and DSO2 which overlapping will be overwritten by the latest update.
Again, going back to your question, you should consider does your datasource has missing fields (14 of them).
thanks.

Date fields in the Maintainence View.

Hello friends,
I created a maintanence view which of 2 steps. This view contains a DATE field of data element type 'DATS". Now the problem is -"
1. In the first screen of the viewI am not able to see only the DATE field(Over view scr).
2. But I able to see the same field in the 2nd screen(Maintanence Screen).
Not only to my View I maintained ' Table Maintanence Generator" to some more tables.There also I am not able to see the date field in the first screen, unless it is a key field.
Thanks in advance.

Go To Technical Settings (SCREEN 104)
Delivery Class: The delivery class controls the transport of table data when
installing or upgrading, in a client copy and when transporting between customer
systems. The delivery class is also used in the extended table
maintenance.
There are the following delivery classes:
A: Application table (master and transaction data).
C: Customer table, data is maintained by the customer only.
L: Table for storing temporary data.
G: Customer table. The customer namespace must be defined in table TRESC. (Use
Report RDDKOR54 here).
E: System table with its own namespaces for customer entries.
S: System table, data changes have the same status as program changes.
W: System table (e.g. table of the development environment) whose
data is transported with its own transport objects (e.g. R3TR PROG, R3TR TABL,
etc.).
Data Browser/Table View Maint.: This indicator specifies
whether it is possible to display/maintain a table or view using the maintenance
tools Data Browser (transaction SE16) and table view maintenance (transactions
SM30 and SM31).
MANDT field is mandatory for Client dependant tables

Data Class: The data class defines the physical area of the database (for ORACLE
the TABLESPACE) in which your table is logically stored. If you choose a data
class correctly, your table will automatically be assigned to the correct area
when it is created on the database.
The most important data classes
are (other than the system data):
APPL0 Master data
APPL1 Transaction data
APPL2 Organizational and customizing data

How to select data from a table using a date field in the where condition?

How to select data from a table using a date field in the where condition?
For eg:
data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
and bdatu = '31129999'.
thanks.

Hi Ramesh,
Specify the date format as YYYYMMDD in where condition.
Dates are internally stored in SAP as YYYYMMDD only.
Change your date format in WHERE condition as follows.
data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
and bdatu = <b>'99991231'.</b>
I doubt check your data base table EQUK on this date for the existince of data.
Otherwise, just change the conidition on BDATU like below to see all entries prior to this date.
data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
and <b> bdatu <= '99991231'.</b>

Can a today's date be added in a date field when the submit button is pressed?

I created a form with a submit button and the form is sent via email. Can the date when the form is submitted show up in a date field with the button is pressed?
Any help with this is much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
there is a preSubmit event for form objects you can use.
Select your date field, open the script editor and add this script (language is FormCalc) into the preSubmit event.
$ = num2date(date(), "MM/DD/YYYY")
