SAP Connector - how to fetch column called "FROM"

Hi! I cannot fetch column called "FROM" from SAP table using  Qlik SAP Connectors . I tried use also parsing function like: upper(FROM), text(FROM), "FROM", 'FROM' - the same error. When I open preview tables from Qlik Sense, system cannot prepare load script for this table - loading preview without end. Probably due to the same problem. Please help 🙂

Error:

Connector reply error: RfcAbapException:SQL_ERROR Message: This Open SQL statement uses additions that can only be used when the fixed point arithmetic flag is activated (such as CASE expressions or host variables in expressions).

Hello Jacek,

Have you tried using [FROM]?

SELECT [FROM] FROM YMDCS_005;

Fernando, just tested, the same error 😞

The following error occurred:
Connector reply error: RfcAbapException:SQL_ERROR Message: "[" is invalid here (due to grammar). contains an invalid character or it is a Line: 4 Word: [
 
The error occurred here:
SELECT [FROM] FROM YMDCS_005

Thanks, unfortunately no luck. I'm pretty sure that this is an exception, which can be solved only in SAP Connector code. @Anonymous

Maybe use * if the table has a reasonable number of columns and then in the Qlik part of the script just selected column FROM
