Contract material retrieval

[Former Member]

hi,

Is there any way to retrieve contract material description (TXZ01 from EKPO) irrespective of case sensitivity.

Example I need to pick Picking, PICKING and even picking if the user entered picking as input for the given input.

Kr,

Senthil.

I'm hoping that this is not your only selection criteria. You may have to leave this out of the WHERE clause and handle it after.

select * into table iekpo
         from ekpo
               where .......


* Loop table, translate the text, check against
* select-option, delete if not valid.
loop at iekpo.

translate iekpo-txz01 to upper case.
if not iekpo-txz01 in s_txz01.
delete iekpo.
continue.
endif.

endloop.

Thankyou Rich

I tried this logic but if the user gives as

Picking like that or with any combination this logic is not working and also it end up with performance issues.

No problem if performance issues but cases like P or p* or *P ?????

You would have to translate the selection field as well.

parameters: P_txz01 type ekpo-txz01.


translate p_txz01 to upper case.

In my case the it is the parameter of the function module g_maktg and if I translate as

translate g_maktg to upper case.

eg. g_maktg = picking the translation will give

PICKING

but when we check in itab there will different combination of picking which i need to select everything.

eg.

tool picking

picking box

tool picking box

tool PICKING box

which has to be selected.

Kr,

Right. So if you translate both, then all will be upper case and you can compare them.

You can use the CP command to filter the records.

IF SELECTED_TEXT CP INPUT_STRING.

CONTINUE.

ELSE.

DELETE Entry.

ENDIF.

this looks okay although it doesnt cover all combinations of capital and small letters.

REPORT zsearchcap .

DATA : t_makt TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF makt WITH HEADER LINE.

DATA : l_maktx(40).

PARAMETERS : p_maktx type makt-maktx.

RANGES: r_maktx FOR p_maktx .

r_maktx-low = p_maktx.

r_maktx-sign = 'I'.

r_maktx-option = 'CP'.

APPEND r_maktx.

TRANSLATE p_maktx TO UPPER CASE.

r_maktx-low = p_maktx.

r_maktx-sign = 'I'.

r_maktx-option = 'CP'.

APPEND r_maktx.

TRANSLATE p_maktx TO LOWER CASE.

r_maktx-low = p_maktx.

r_maktx-sign = 'I'.

r_maktx-option = 'CP'.

APPEND r_maktx.

SELECT * FROM makt INTO TABLE t_makt

WHERE maktx IN r_maktx

AND spras EQ sy-langu.

LOOP AT t_makt.

WRITE: / t_makt-maktx.

ENDLOOP.

Check this out -

REPORT zzsearch_allpattern .

DATA : itab1 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF makt,

wa_itab1 TYPE makt.

PARAMETERS : p_maktx TYPE makt-maktx.

DATA : l_maktx TYPE makt-maktx.

TRANSLATE p_maktx TO UPPER CASE.

********************************************************

SELECT * FROM makt INTO TABLE itab1

WHERE spras EQ sy-langu.

LOOP AT itab1 INTO wa_itab1.

l_maktx = wa_itab1-maktx.

TRANSLATE l_maktx TO UPPER CASE.

IF wa_itab1-maktx CP p_maktx.

WRITE : / wa_itab1-matnr, wa_itab1-maktx.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.
