I'm trying to call this VBA function in the following update query and I'm getting this error. I'm stuck and I don't know what to do. The function signature seems ok to me.
Compute([ep].[ReferenceNumber],[ep].[ITU3Number],[ep].[AuthorizationNumber],[ep].[Ent],[ep].[Indicator],[ep].[LineCode],[ep].[ProductLinee],[ep].[Inp_ProfitCenterCode],[ep].[Inp_ParisBOCode],[ep].[StartDate],[ep].[EndDate],[ep].[ExtractionDate],[ep].[OffBalance],[ep].[IType],[ep].[Counterparty],[ep].[WAL],[ep].[Inp_BackupLineIndicator],[ep].[Indicator],[ep].[FinalRating],[ep].[Amount],[ep].[Currency],[ep].[Historical],[ep].[rice],[ep].[MaturityIndicator],[ep].[pproachType],[ep].[SignatureDate],[ep].[IMaturityDate],[ep].[ProductType],[ep].[Inp_StepupDuration],[ep].[ProbabilityOfStepup],[ep].[SCF],[ep].[ICollateralSCF],[ep].[MobilFlag,[ep].[MarginBp],[ep].[ExtensionCode],[ep].[ExtensionYear],[ep].[UsageType],"a","a")
The expression is too long for Access to process:
The maximum acceptable length appears to be around 560 characters The maximum number of arguments seems to be 29.
For example, by truncating some fields, this works:
Compute([ep].[ReferenceNumber],[ep].[ITU3Number],[ep].[AuthorizationNumber],[ep].[Ent],[ep].[Indicator],[ep].[LineCode],[ep].[ProductLinee],[ep].[Inp_ProfitCenterCode],[ep].[Inp_ParisBOCode],[ep].[StartDate],[ep].[EndDate],[ep].[ExtractionDate],[ep].[OffBalance],[ep].[IType],[ep].[Counterparty],[ep].[WAL],[ep].[Inp_BackupLineIndicator],[ep].[Indicator],[ep].[FinalRating],[ep].[Amount],[ep].[Currency],[ep].[Historical],[ep].[rice],[ep].[MaturityIndicator],[ep].[pproachType],[ep].[SignatureDate],[ep].[IMaturityDate],[ep].[ProductType],[ep].[Inp_StepupDuration])
This works:
Compute(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29)
But this fails:
Compute(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30)
So, you could do something like this:
Compute(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,SubCompute(29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56))
As I understood, select-options in abap just takes 45 characters from UI.
Whatever I assign the type of select-option, it doesnt take more then 45 characters.
SELECT-OPTIONS: s_key FOR somlreci1-receiver NO INTERVALS VISIBLE LENGTH 100.
somlreci1-receiver is char(1215). But I cannot write more than 45 into that select-option.
Any way to increase this length ?
This official link
http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPSELECT-OPTIONS.htm
says it isn't possible to pass input larger than 45 chars, sorry :|
At the end of the documentation posted by #vlad-ardelean it mentions that:
If a selection criterion for data types is supplied with data when
calling up an executable program with SUBMIT
...
If the selection criterion is declared with the addition NO-DISPLAY,
no conversion routine or truncation will be performed for the first
row either.
You could declare the select-options as NO-DISPLAY in your main program, then call it from a second program with
SUBMIT programname WITH so_field EQ lv_longdata SIGN 'I'.
...or similar to pass the long value to the main program. It's a pretty convoluted way of doing it, however.
In addition to #vlad-ardelean's answer: It might be interesting to note that in recent releases, the maximum field length was raised to 255 characters (see http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_731/en/ABAPSELECT-OPTIONS.htm).
Hey, I have a report parameter which looks like this: 01.01.2009 00:00:00
Its a date (as string), as you might have guessed :). The problem is, this param can be an empty string as well. So I tried those expressions:
=IIf(IsDate(Parameters!DateTo.Value), CDate(Parameters!DateTo.Value), "")
=IIf(Len(Parameters!DateTo.Value) > 0, CDate(Parameters!DateTo.Value), "")
Both dont work and the value for the textfield where I print the expressions result is always #Error. As soon as I remove the CDate stuff, it works, but I have to use it. IS there another way to achieve that? What I want is to display nothing if its not a date or the date (format dd.mm.yyyy) if its a date.
Ideas?
Thanks :)
All arguments to the IIf are evaluated, which results in your error, since the CDate will fail for an empty string.
You can get around this by just writting a function along these lines, using a standard if statement:
Function FormatDate(ByVal s As String) As String
If (s <> "") Then
Return CDate(s).ToString()
Else
Return ""
End If
End Function
Then call it with: =Code.FormatDate(Parameters!DateTo.Value)
First, fix your database to properly store dates rather than doing these workarounds. You probably have bad data in there as well (Feb 30 2010 for example or my favorite, ASAP). Truly there is no excuse for not fixing this at the database level where it needs to be fixed except if this is vendor provided software that you can't change (I would yell at them though, well notify them really, and ask them to fix their data model or go to a new product designed by someone who knows what they are doing. A vendor who can't use dates properly is likely to have software that is very poor all around).
In the query that you use to select the infomation, have you considered just converting all non-dates to null?
I have this insert command where iam trying to insert a number to be taken from loop
i=0
for line in column:
myStmt.executeQuery("INSERT INTO REVERSE_COL
( TABLE_NAME,COL_NAME,POS) values
(,'test','"+column[i]+"','"+i+"'")
i=i+1
POS IS NUMBER DATATYPE
but it works if i hard code as 1
i=0
for line in column:
myStmt.executeQuery("INSERT INTO REVERSE_COL
( TABLE_NAME,COL_NAME,POS) values
(,'test','"+column[i]+"',1")
I have tried only i , +i+ and other method but its not working any suggestion how to solve this .
Thanks everyone .
I have no jython experience, but I will still try to offer my personal approach and advice. Take from it what you will.
The first thing that I would look into, and perhaps this is something someone else knows offhand, is the way that a number is concatenated to the string. I'm speaking from a C++ background here, but a number i may well be converted to the ASCII character representing that value, and not necessarily the character that you intend.
For example, if i is 9, it may be placing a TAB into the string and not the number 9, which would be an ASCII value 57.
Again, I'm not telling you this IS the answer...but it's the first thing that pops into my mind. Good luck!
