Using writetext function in a stored procedure for Sybase 11.5

Hello,
I need to execute the writetext function inside a Sybase stored procedure to insert varchar data of approximately 4k size.
how to specify data parameter in writetext fot that?

The split function Scott used is some variant on one of the solutions posted in the Ask Tom link I posted. More specifically, it is probably a variant on either one of the pipelined function solutions, or one based on splitting the string into a SQL table of objects.
Look at Tom's original response to the question for a working solution. If you have a reasonably new version of Oracle, then you may also want to look at the modificataion/modernization later in the thread which can be found here

  • How to convert REFCursor functions to REFCursor Stored Procedure

    Is it possible or not.How to want convert REFCursor functions to REFCursor Stored Procedure.For Example
    function QR_1RefCurDS return pkg_sa_reprts_ref_cursr.pa_mis_sa_disp_cursr is
    data_cursr pkg_sa_reprts_ref_cursr.pa_mis_sa_disp_cursr;
    begin
    data_cursr:= sf_sa_dispatch_reprt(:P_USER,:P_USER_TYPE,:P_AREA_CD,:P_RPT_LEVEL,:P_PARNT_GROP,:P_LOCTN_CD,:P_DATE);
    return data_cursr;
    end;
    how to convert it.

    Its possible. But you need to analyse the requirement well. Post conevrsion, you need to take care of places in the code where the function call is made to invoke the new procedure.
    create procedure QR_1RefCurDS_pr (out pkg_sa_reprts_ref_cursr.pa_mis_sa_disp_cursr) is
    data_cursr pkg_sa_reprts_ref_cursr.pa_mis_sa_disp_cursr;
    begin
    data_cursr:= sf_sa_dispatch_reprt(:P_USER,:P_USER_TYPE,:P_AREA_CD,:P_RPT_LEVEL,:P_PARNT_GROP,:P_LOCTN_CD,:P_DATE);
    end;

  • Using a stored procedure for a  sender jdbc adapter

    Hi all,
    The requirement is to use a stored procedure, for extracting data from a oracle database.
    Is it possible to do this.
    If yes, what should be the source structure in this case.
    Please help with the exact soln.
    Thanks!!
    Younus

    Hi,
    Did you check the blog pointed by Aamir?
    /people/jegathees.waran/blog/2007/03/02/oracle-table-functions-and-jdbc-sender-adapter
    You will need to use Oracle Functions instead of Oracle Stored Procedures. Read thru the blog and the note pointed in the blog . Think it is quite a good example.

  • Calling Stored Procedure for Multiple records

    Hi,
    I have an use case where I have more than 2000 item and for every item I need to fetch around 70 more values as out parameters. Also i need to show all thoes values on UI.
    So calling SP in loop is a problem as I can see the rendering the values and it's very slow.
    Can anyone suggest better way to handle this case?
    -Ajit

    Hi...
    I don't know about the function you have written but...
    Procedure will be created like following
    Take an example: i want to create a procedure to take only first letter from the city of City column.
    For this...
    1). Create a physical table manually under the schema folder.
    2). Give the name and select Table Type as "Stored Proc".
    3). In "Default Initialization String" field, you should write the query saying "select substr(city,1,1) as Col1 from Regions". In query Col1 is the alias name i have given for the new column. (Click OK)
    4). So, now this column should be part of the table newly created. So create a physical column under this newly created table with "Col1" name.
    5). Double-click the column and specify the data type of that particular column. (This should be done otherwise you can't move it to BMM layer)
    6). Now you can add this table to BMM layer by performing necessary joins w/o any errors or warnings. (This would be depending on your business requirement, for this some times you need to add keys also to the procedure to perform the joins and all)
    7). By adding it to the presentation layer, in answers you can watch the results..
    NOTE:
    1). While writing the function names in Stored procedures, DB you are using is important. Because, functions will vary between the DB's.
    2). Column name of newly created should match with the name you specified in the procedure as alias.
    3). If you are retrieving 'n' no. of columns from the procedure then you need to create 'n' no. of columns manually.
    4). For physical columns created manually, you need to specify the data type according to the type of data it's retrieving.
    It may helpful to you in achieving your requirement. If not sorry... but i am sure it's helpful to you...
    mark as helpful if it's helpful else mark as correct if correct ;)
    Thanks & Regards

  • Stored Procedure for Accounts Receivable

    Hi. First off, apologies in advance if I have put this question into the wrong topic. Secondly, I first saw SAP 3 weeks ago when I stared my new job and have had no training so please bear with me if some of what I ask doesn't make much sense.
    OK, the issue is this.  In SAP B1, there is a built in Report called "Customer Receivables Aging" which allows you to see Customer Receivable Accounts by age (e.g 0-30, 31-60, 61-90, 90+) and so on.  The problem with the built in report is that it doesn't show all the fields I want - it only shows the Customer Name, balance, and then the aging balances.  I want to be able to see things like the customer's contact details, etc. I know this makes no sense because the whole point of the report is to be able to drill down into the different rows, but this report needs to be issued in printed form, hence the need for the extra fields.
    Since I can't seen any way from within SAP to change the fields returned by this report, I thought I'd have a stab at writing my own SQL to select out the same data along with the extra fields I wanted.  That's when the problems began...try as I might, I cannot get my figures to tally with the SAP Report.
    They are almost correct, but not quite. I am sure that I am missing a selection or some other element of the logic that B1 uses to create the built in report.
    If you want, I can post the SQL I'm using....I'm not an SQL guru by any means, but I do know my way around it; the biggest problem I have is that I cannot find any documentation as to the 4 letter tables that SAP uses and their relationships except on the most basic level (e.g ORIN is Open Return Invoice [maybe])
    Then I thought maybe it might be possible to edit that report section in B1 using the SDK.  That would be a better solution as I would not have to 'reinvent the wheel', I can just SELECT an extra field or three to include in the report.
    So my question is
    ->Does anyone have a stored procedure for SQL Server that can replicate correctly the SAP B1 "Customer Receivable Aging", even just the process SAP uses to gather this data would be good.
    OR
    is it possible to edit this report in SAP to put in the extra fields I want.
    Or, am I totally barking up the wrong tree? Thanks in advance, I know this is a long post.

    Hi Stephen,
    There should be a print layout attached to the on-screen report. This can be altered to show the additional fields you want without resorting to SDK or SQL development.
    When you have the Customer Receivables Ageing report open on screen, choose Tools-Print Layout Designer or click on the Print Layout Designer icon on the toolbar. When prompted, choose the layout you wish to edit and you'll be taken to the layout design. In the layout, you can add additional fields and should be able to add most business partner fields. As the report is set to portrait by default, I recommend changing it to landscape so you have lots more space to add the extra fields you want. This report writer is fairly intuitive, if a little basic.
    You will need to save this new report design, set it to be the default layout and then when you select to print the Customer Receivables Ageing report (ie Print Preview or Print) you will see the new report.
    Hope this helps,
    Owen

    set @batch = substring(@list_of_cols_val_tab_del, len(@item)+1, (CHARINDEX(CHAR(9),  @list_of_cols_val_tab_del,len(@item)+2)) - (len(@item)+1))
    --set @base =( select basetype from ibt1 where batchnum = ltrim(rtrim(replace(@batch,char(9),''))))
    set @count = (select count(*) from oibt quantity > 0 and where  batchnum = ltrim(rtrim(replace(@batch,char(9),''))))
    if @count > 1
    begin
    set @error = 1
    set @error_message = 'Please enter different Batch Code for batch ''' + @batch + ''' for item ' + @item 
    select @error, @error_message
    END
    END
                  I used above Stored Procedure. here we can use one batch number for different item but  i want to block one batch we should use one item and one time only after than we never use that batch number for same item and another item.
             After that I want format for Batch, we should follow unique Batch number for all items.

  • Stored procedure for getting host name, host instance and status of that host is it running or stopped.

    Hello all,
    yesterday I got one task in that I have to stored procedure for getting host name, host instance and status of that host is it running or stopped.
    any body knows where exactly, In which table this details are there in BizTalk databases.
    thanks

    Status of the host instance is not stored in the SQL database for you to query the status using stored procedure. You have to either use Powershell or WMI to get the status.
    In SQL, following table contains the details about the host like Name, LoginName, IsDisables etc but status of the host instance is not stored in the database.
    SELECT * FROM BizTalkMgmtDb..adm_HostInstance
    Powershell to get the status:
    http://axonolympus.nl/?page_id=186&post_id=969&cat_id=6&lang=en
    WMI to get the status:

  • How to call stored procedure in SYBASE using callable statement

    Hi all,
    Im using jdbc code to execute a stored procedure in sybase but while running the code i get an error saying
    java.sql.SQLException: JZ0R2: No result set for this query.
    at com.sybase.jdbc2.jdbc.ErrorMessage.raiseError(ErrorMessage.java:506)
    at com.sybase.jdbc2.jdbc.SybStatement.queryLoop(SybStatement.java:1552)
    at com.sybase.jdbc2.jdbc.SybStatement.executeQuery(SybStatement.java:1522)
    at com.sybase.jdbc2.jdbc.SybCallableStatement.executeQuery(SybCallableStatement.java:76)
    but when i execute the same procedure in sybase it returns some result but i know its not in resultset format .I want to know is anyone experienced same problem in their side.
    My question is how to obtain the result which is not in the format result set obtained by executing the stored procedure.
    Thanks n advance

    Check this post out:
    http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=638768&messageID=3785982
    But I think you should be getting results right? What do you mean you want it in a format other than resultset?

  • Using ALTER SESSION inside a stored procedure.... not a good idea?

    Hi,
    I have two stored procedures, both of which are used to query a database to find a particular book, based on ISBN. One sproc searches our main product catalogue and the other searches our suppliers feed catalogues. The stored procedures are called from a C# application via a search tool and the user is able to search on either our catalogue or our suppliers. The appropriate procedure is called based on the users choices.
    However, the following behaviour is observed
    I search for an ISBN (is a varchar2 field, as isbn's may contain an X if the checksum digit equates to 10) on a feed, so uses the FEED SPROC. The book is found and returned to the app in about 0.5 seconds. I can repeat this as often as i like on different books etc. always works fine.
    I then do the same search but against our own catalogue, so uses our CATALOGUE SPROC. Again the book is found quickly, and the search can be repeated with the same results.
    If i then go back and run our FEED SPROC then the search time increases to about 3 minutes !
    Both the feed and our catalogue is in the same database, although different schema's the connections will be pooled through our app server.
    I can repliacte this every single time. I think i have narrowed doen the cause of this behaviour to a few lines of code in our CATALOGUE SPROC:
    -- store values
    select value into v_vch_NLS_COMP from nls_session_parameters nsp where nsp.parameter = 'NLS_COMP';
    select value into v_vch_NLS_SORT from nls_session_parameters nsp where nsp.parameter = 'NLS_SORT';
    -- Ensure case insensitivity throughout
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET NLS_COMP = LINGUISTIC';
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET NLS_SORT = BINARY_CI';
    do other stuff
    -- restore session variables
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET NLS_COMP = ' || v_vch_NLS_COMP;
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET NLS_SORT = ' || v_vch_NLS_SORT;
    If i remove this code then all is well, so i am assuming that using ALTER SESSION inside a stored procedure is the cause of the problem as it would be changing the execution plan of the FEEDS SPROC in some manner? Any ideas? I know i can just rewrite the sproc to avoid using this coding, but wanted to understand if i am doing something wrong by using ALTER SESSION in this manner?
    Any pointers would be appreciated.

    Hello (and welcome),
    It may be a case of having to create a linguistic index to facilitate the queries once you set these session level parameters, i.e..,
    CREATE INDEX idx_01 ON tab ((NLSSORT(col1, 'NLS_SORT=BINARY_CI'))It would appear that the setting of those parameters is invalidating index searching on the current indexes.

  • Stored Procedure for restrict to close documents

    Hi,
    I want to create a Stored Procedure for restrict to close sales orders for some users, because in Standard Authorizations you have one option to restrict to close, but I need that some users can close quotations and also this users can´t close sales orders. I have this query :
    F @object_type='17' AND (@transaction_type='a' or @transaction_type='U' )
    BEGIN
    IF EXISTS (
    SELECT T0.DOCENTRY FROM adoc T0 WHERE T0.[ObjType] = '17'
    AND T0.[UserSign] = '1' AND    T0.[DocStatus] = 'C'   AND
    T0.DOCENTRY= @list_of_cols_val_tab_del )
    BEGIN
    SELECT @Error = 1, @error_message = 'You are not permitted to close Sales Orders'
    END
    END
    But It doesn´t work. I need help!!!
    Thanks

    Hi Jose,
    You have to correct your transaction type parameters.  When you perform close or cancel operations on document; the trasnsaction notification receives parameters u201CCu201D for Cancel and u201CLu201D for Close. So instead of checking add u201CAu201D or update u201CUu201D;  you have to modify your transaction type filters for cancel u201CCu201D or close u201CLu201D.  It will go like belowu2026
    IF @object_type='17' AND (@transaction_type='C' or @transaction_type='L')
    Please try above and let me know the results.
    Thanks & Regards,
