Answer:
There's been loads of postings about this and I'm still sticking to my explanation... which is:
Select single: Selects the first record it comes to in the table that matches the selection criteria.
Select Upto 1 rows......:
Performs the selection, then applies any ordering or grouping and builds the result set. It then returns the first row from the result set. Subtly different from above.

Have fun!
Answer:
How?
They both would return the same record wouldn't they?
Or would the ordering make them return a different record???
Answer:
Select single .....
from vbap
where vbeln = '123456'
And
Select upto 1 rows
from vbap
where vbeln = '123456'.
Will have the same result.
Select upto 1 rows
from vbap
where vbeln = '123456'
order by posnr descending.
will not it should produce the last item line for the order.
If upto 1 rows was the same as select single then the previous example would return the first record it came to.
Btw - these have have not been checked for syntax.
