Background documentation LIKE Condition Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

LIKE conditions are search conditions with a LIKE predicate, to which the following rules apply:

·        The operator is the operator LIKE.

·        LIKE conditions have the following format:
<column_spec > LIKE <extended_value_spec >

·        The value specification used ( extended_value_spec) may not begin with the SQL syntax elements match_string or match_set.

The Optimizer can only use LIKE conditions that satisfy these prerequisites to determine an optimal search strategy.

Conditions with the format ...NOT (<column_spec> NOT LIKE <extended_value_spec>) are, where possible, converted into an expression <column_spec> LIKE <extended_value_spec>. The system then continues processing the condition in this converted format.
