What is an ABAP Query? How is it different from ABAP reports?

Answer Posted / nandu

ABAP Query allows you to define reports without having to program yourself.

ABAP Query provides you with three different report types:

Basic lists
Basic lists allow you to output data sorted by various criteria and to calculate totals.

Statistics, and
Ranked lists
You can also define a combination of these.

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. You then assign a particular sequence by numbering the fields.

The system generates each query in the form of an ABAP program.

The following sections give you an overview of the principal ABAP Query components, the necessary authorizations and the different user groups.

Material Determination Issue while posting billing document. I am taking about the standard process of SAP. Just try entry with Outcome as A while defining substitute reason and then process the order. It will show both the old and new material with item category as TAX and TAPS respectively. TAX for non- stock item- means as of now the material is not available. TAPS- the new material which has replaced the old material. Now, if you will see the configuration of item category TAX and TAPS in IDES, it would be more clearer as I mentioned in the first update. The only issue is - I am facing a problem in billing. Now if you re-consider my post, I guess it would be more clearer. However, the issue is that in billing its not showing the right price. Please suggest. Configuration - Item category- TAX- Old material. Billing relevance- A Stats- X Pricing- NO Item Category- TAPS- New materail Billing Relevance- A Stats- NO Pricing- Yes Because I want both the material in billing, so billing relevance is A. And I want the price of new material so for TAPS pricing - Yes. But every time I am trying system is taking the price of TAX. Not sure why? If I make it as vice- verse, thinking lets take the price of new material, now the system is taking the price of old .
