Aggregate With Multiple Fields Question
May 7, 2008
I'm having trouble using Aggregate functions with multiple fields.
Here is what I'm trying to do:
SELECT REPLACE(Cust_Key, sum(PRODUCT_CHARGE), count(Tracking_Number), Tracking_Number FROM Shipments = '2008-05-05'
Group By Cust_Key, Tracking_Number
I can get this to work when I use Group By for a single field like Cust_Key but I don't know how to make it work for multiple fields. What is the best way to write something that contains a few aggregate functions on top of multiple fields?
Thanks

I need to find an aggregate for several fields in a row
e.g. Max(date1, date2, ..., dateN)
I can pass this to a delimited string,
pass the string to an UDF that returns a table
and run Max(tablefield) on that UDF
Unfortunately I can only get this working for 1 delimited string at a time
Ideally I would want to include the function in a SELECT statement, e.g. something like
SELECT t1.a, dbo.MaxOfFieldValues(t1.d1+','+t1.d2+...+','+t2.dN )
FROM t1
I got it working with the following two udfs, but I am sure visitors here have solved this a bit smarter:
ALTER Function [dbo].[MaxOfFieldValues]
(
@ListOfValues varchar(8000)
, @delimiter varchar(10) = ','
)
RETURNS VARCHAR(8000)
AS
BEGIN
--Need to get the maximum changedate first
--pass the fields as one value (a delimited string)
--and calc the max
declare @result varchar(8000)
declare @remainder varchar(8000)
set @remainder = @ListOfValues
declare @NoOfItems int --items = delimiters +1
SET @NoOfItems = (len(@ListOfValues) - Len(Replace(@ListOfValues,@delimiter,''))/Len(@ListOfValues))+1
declare @counter int
set @counter =1
set @result = dbo.TakePart(@remainder,@delimiter,@counter)
WHILE @counter <= @NoOfItems
BEGIN
set @counter = @counter + 1
IF @result < dbo.TakePart(@remainder,@delimiter,@counter)
BEGIN
SET @result = dbo.TakePart(@remainder,@delimiter,@counter)
END
END
RETURN (@result)
END
ALTER FUNCTION [dbo].[TakePart]
(
@param varchar(8000)
, @delimiter varchar(10)
, @NumPart int
)
RETURNS varchar(8000)
AS
BEGIN
--Note: maybe smarter to whack the delimiter to the end of the string to avoid the IF statement
declare @result varchar(8000)
declare @remainder varchar(8000)
declare @counter int
set @result = ''
set @remainder = @param
set @counter = 1
WHILE @counter < @Numpart
BEGIN
SET @remainder = SUBSTRING(@remainder,CHARINDEX(@delimiter,@remaind er,1)+Len(@delimiter),8000)
SET @counter = @counter +1
END
IF @counter > (len(@param) - Len(Replace(@param,@delimiter,''))/Len(@delimiter))
BEGIN
SET @result = @remainder
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET @result = LEFT(@remainder,CHARINDEX(@delimiter,@remainder,1) -1)
END
RETURN @result
END

When I was looking at this I knew that I've done this same issue before without using temp tables at all but I need a push to to jar it loose.
I have a table like this:
Balance
Date
1
200
2/14/2000
2
350
2/14/2000
3
32
2/14/2000
2
723
2/14/1998
3
354
2/14/1998
1
321
2/14/2000
2
673
2/14/1998
3
581
2/14/2000
2
574
2/14/1998
3
50
2/14/2000
1
10
2/14/2000
And essentially need this.
Total Balance Before 1/1/2000
Total Balance After 1/1/2000
1
0
531
2
1970
350
3
354
663
Right now I'm splitting it into two temp tables and then joining them together.
Temp Table 1 has the sum of the balance grouped by field1 before 1/1/2000 and Temp table 2 has the after 1/1/2000 criteria.
Table 1 gets updates with field1 values from table 2 that aren't already there. And then the balance field after 1/1/2000 is merged in.
Utimately this will be used in a SPROC for a Multivalued SSRS report.

I am using MS SQL 2012. I have a table that contains all the data that I need, but I need to summarize the data and also add up decimal fields while at it. Then I need a total of those added decimal fields. My data is like this:
I have Providers, a unique ID that Providers will have multiples of, and then decimal fields. Here are my fields:
ID, provider_name, uniq_id, total_spent, total_earned
Here is sample data:
1, Harbor, A07B8, 500.00, 1200.00
2, Harbor, A07B8, 400.00, 800.00
3, Harbor, B01C8, 600.00, 700.00
4, Harbor, B01C8, 300.00, 1100,00
5, LifeLine, L01D8, 700.00, 1300.00
6, LifeLine, L01D8, 200.00, 800.00
I need the results to be just 3 lines:
Harbor, A07B8, 900.00, 2000.00
Harbor, B01C8, 900.00, 1800.00
LifeLine, L01D8, 900.00, 2100.00
But then I would need the totals for the Provider, so:
Harbor, 1800.00, 3800.00

Hi
I have a old report that was pointing to a different database, and i changed the connection string for that report and changed the field names (As per my new stored Procedure). In some places I keep getting this run time error, i have tried looking for all the hidden references to this field and i cannot find any parameter that the old database had. The error messages that i get are as follows:
[rsFieldReference] The Hidden expression for the table €˜tblContactInfo€™ refers to the field €˜PL_Admin_ShowInKit€™. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope.
[rsFieldReference] The Hidden expression for the table €˜tblContactInfo€™ refers to the field €˜PL_FA_ShowInKit€™. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope.
[rsFieldReference] The Hidden expression for the table €˜tblWithdrawals€™ refers to the field €˜PW_Comment€™. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope.
Can Someone please help me out as to how should i get rid of these error messages, they are kinda driving me nuts.
Regards,
Karen

I have a select statement like this:
"SELECT AVG(Price) FROM prices GROUP BY Category"
Which of course returns a list of average prices.
I want to get a sum of that list, something that would work like this:
"SELECT SUM(SELECT AVG(Price) FROM prices GROUP BY Category)"
That code doesn't work, but that's what I want it to do and I'm not sure how to do it.
Thanks!

Hi, need help in this statement here. I have three tables here, i.e. Sales, SalesItem, & SalesPmt. I want to display a grid that shows the Total Bill and Total Payment amounts.
My try is like this: SELECT SalesNo, SUM(Price*Qty) AS TotalBill, SUM(Payment) AS TotalPayment FROM ... GROUP BY....
No syntax error or whatever found, but the result of the total amounts is incorrect.
Say the data of the respective table below:
SalesItem
No
Qty
Price
1
1
5.00
2
2
12.00
3
4
3.50
SalesPayment
No
Amount
1
10.00
2
5.00
But the result I get from the above query is:
TotalBill
TotalPayment
86.00
45.00
Total Bill should be 43.00 and Total Payment should be 15.00.
Apparently the problem is due to the fact that I and querying on multiple tables. The correct total payment amount was multiplied by the number of rows of sales items (15.00 x 3), while the correct total bill amount was multiplied by the number of rows of sale payments (43.00 x 2).
So, what is the better way of writing this query?

Howdy,I need to write an update query with multiple aggregate functions.Here is an example:UPDATE tSETt.a = ( select avg(f.q) from dbo.foo f where f.p = t.y ),t.b = ( select sum(f.q) from dbo.foo f where f.p = t.y )FROM dbo.test tBasically I need to get some aggregate statistics about the rows offoo and store them in rows of t. The above statement works fine...butnote how the two subSelect's have the exact same WHERE clause. Thisscreams at me to combine them...but how? I would like to havesomething like this in my query:SELECT avg(f.q), sum(f.q) FROM dbo.foo f WHERE f.p = 2...and somehow store the results in t.a and t.b.

I am trying to aggrgate Values on three columns Customer , OrderDate and Product thorough SSIS. It gives me following masseges and works very very slow.
Before Aggregation I sort the Data by Customer , OrderDate & Product.

I have struggled and can't seem to get the SQL correct to get the records I want.
I have 2 tables containing information from 2 separate independant sensor arrays which collect data about trains in a rail network. I need to get the most current records about the trains at any given time.
Table 1 - Positions
PosId | TrainId | Timestamp | X | Y |
1 | 109 | 5/10/2007 10:01:00 | 62345 | 24998
2 | 210 | 5/10/2007 10:01:00 | 67389 | 22002
3 | 857 | 5/10/2007 10:01:00 | 62599 | 25712
.... (Updates every 15 seconds)
101 | 109 | 5/10/2007 10:07:15 | 62389 | 25002
102 | 210 | 5/10/2007 10:07:15 | 65489 | 25432
103 | 857 | 5/10/2007 10:07:15 | 62889 | 25983
Table 2 - Status
StatusId | TrainId | Timestamp | SensorId | Delay | OffDuty |
1 | 109 | 5/10/2007 10:02:34 | 72 | -3 | N
2 | 857 | 5/10/2007 10:02:48 | 199 | +2 | N
3 | 210 | 5/10/2007 10:04:54 | 85 | -10 | Y
4 | 857 | 5/10/2007 10:05:21 | 231 | +1 | N
5 | 109 | 5/10/2007 10:06:51 | 75 | -5 | N
For any given moment in time, I want to query the database and get the last known position of each train and it's status.
So I want a result table like this:
given time = 10:07:20
TrainId | PosTime | X | Y | StatusTime | SensorId | Delay | OffDuty
109 | 5/10/2007 10:07:15 | 62389 | 25002 | 5/10/2007 10:06:51 | 75 | -5 | N
210 | 5/10/2007 10:07:15 | 65489 | 25432 | 5/10/2007 10:04:54 | 85 | -10 | Y
857 | 5/10/2007 10:07:15 | 62889 | 25983 | 5/10/2007 10:05:21 | 231 | +1 | N
OR given time=10:03:30
1 | 109 | 5/10/2007 10:03:30 | someX | someY | 5/10/2007 10:02:34 | 72 | -3 | N
2 | 210 | 5/10/2007 10:03:30 | someX | someY | null | null | null | null
(Since train 210 it hasn't tripped a status sensor yet, we don't know it's status at that time)
3 | 857 | 5/10/2007 10:03:30 | someX | someY | 5/10/2007 10:02:48 | 199 | +2 | N
Any help to achieve these results would be MOST appreciated, Thanks.

Let me start with saying thanks to all of you who have helped me (I'm a SQL newbee after doing OO for the past 12+ years)
I need to do several aggregates on multiple columns, with each column having different SELECT Criteria.
Sample Data:
Dept Project Cost CostFlag Schedule ScheduleFlag
D1 D1P1 495 1 135 3
D1 D1P2 960 2 70 2
D1 D1P3 1375 3 105 2
D1 D1P4 1050 2 160 3
D1 D1P5 1890 3 40 1
D2 D2P1 650 1 155 3
D2 D2P2 890 2 125 2
D2 D2P3 1235 3 85 1
D2 D2P4 430 1 140 3
D3 D3P1 1960 3 45 1
D3 D3P2 1490 3 85 1
D3 D3P3 1025 2 135 3
D3 D3P4 615 1 100 2
D3 D3P5 270 1 70 1
D3 D3P6 815 2 155 3
I need to calculate MEAN (average), Standard Deviation, Variance, Range, Span & Median for each data column (Cost, Schedule in the test data), where each data column has different selection criteria. I have the calculations working for each column individually (e.g. funcCalcCost, funcCalcSchedule), but I need to return the calculated values as a single data set:
SELECT Dept, Project, AVG(Cost) as Cost_Mean, MAX(Cost) - MIN(Cost) as Cost_Range, .......
WHERE CostFlag = @InputParameter
GROUP BY Dept, Project
The code above works great - but only for a single column. I need to return a dataset like this:
Dept Project Cost_Mean Cost_Range
D1 D1P1 495 135
D1 D1P2 960 70
D1 D1P3 1375 105
I need to return a dataset like this:
Dept Project Cost_Mean Cost_Range Schedule_Mean Schedule_Range
D1 D1P1 495 135 100 28
D1 D1P2 960 70 42 12
D1 D1P3 1375 105 91 38
I also have working code calculate the MEDIAN (what a pain that was, thank god I found a code example to get me going on the MEDIAN)
Thanks!

I have 2 Dimensions in SSAS (see below end), I want to create a calculated member, named
This_Year_Billable_Objective_Count, with its formula = BillableLastYear*(100+ BillableObjective)/100.
The first factor, Â BillableLastYear is a number, aggregated (sum) from child units.
The second factor, Â BillableObjective is a percent number (for example 28 means 28%), it's not aggregate. It's an dependent value for each unit.
How can I calculate This_Year_Billable_Objective_Count for each unit?

I have a table that tracks some dates, and I am looking for an SQL statemet that will check all of the fields to see if a prespecified data range is true. For exampe you enter a start and end date and then then the SQL statement would check about 12 different fields to see if any of the dates are within that range. I am trying to use an or statement, but to no avail. So if you have any help it would be greatly appreciated.

Neither of these is working well. Actually, neither is working at all.

Hi all,I'm running into a road block, and I know I've done this before. I'mgetting fields from two tables, and I need to do a count of similaritems with it showing some extra info.Here's my fields:Log.LogId - IntLog.LogDispatcherID - IntOfficer.OfficerID - IntOfficer.OfficerFirstName - VarcharOfficer.OfficerLastName - VarcharI can get the info I need without a count with this:select a.LogID,a.LogDispatcherID,b.OfficerFirstname + ' ' + b.OfficerLastname as OfficerNamefrom[Log] a, Officer bwhere a.LogAssigned1 = b.OfficerIDBut when I try to add a count and group-by it errors out:select Count(a.LogID) as LogCount,a.LogDispatcherID,b.OfficerFirstname + ' ' + b.OfficerLastname as OfficerNamefrom[Log] a, Officer bwhere a.LogAssigned1 = b.OfficerIDGroup By a.LogIDI've done this before, but this isn't working. It's giving the error"it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BYclause" for each field other then LogID.How can I do this? I want output similar to this:LogCountLogDispatchIDOfficerName334Tom Jones422John Smith.... EtcThanks for any suggestions or ideas...Sam Alex

I have a am doing some date calcs () . The situation is that I have a Move date (date a customer moved to a new home). I want to calculate their sales for the following 0-3 months after the move (month 0 being the move month). I have the month and year of the move (MthStart, YrStart), and I am adding 3 to MthStart to get the MthEnd of that 0-3 month period. I will then find sales BETWEEN YrStart&MthStart AND YrEnd&MthEnd (there is a YrMth field in the sales table)
Of course, for MthStarts 10, 11, and 12, the ends are 13, 14, and 15. So for these, I need to subtract 12, and increment the YrEnd by 1.
I am wondering if there is a way to update both the MthEnd and YrEnd fields at one time instead of separate SETs (or maybe I am just thinking about this the hard way to begin with). Is there a way to update both in a single CASE statement like WHEN MthEnd> 12 THEN MthEnd-12 AND YrEnd+1?
Code:
CREATE TABLE #myTable (
YrStart INT,
MthStart INT,
YrEnd INT,
MthEnd INT);
[code]....

I have an exisitng report that lists unit name, provider, runday, shift, patient. The report groups by unit name and there is a page break after each unit name. So in the current environment the report prints one page per unit that contains all of the providers, rundays, shifts, and patients for that unit name its grouping on. So the report would like like this when it prints:
Unit A
Provider 1 Runday 1 Shift 1
patient 1
patient 2
Provider 1 Runday 1 Shift 2
patient 1
patient 2
Provider 1 Runday 2 Shift 1
patient 1

patient 2
Provider 2 Runday 1 Shift 1
patient 1
patient 2
Provider 2 Runday 1 Shift 2
patient 1
patient 2
Provider 2 Runday 2 Shift 1
patient 1
patient 2
Provider 2 Runday 2 Shift 2
patient 1
patient 2
PAGE BREAK
Unit B............(repeat data from page 1)
PAGE BREAK
Unit C............(repeat data from page 1
The end user would like the ability to keep the report as is but would like to also be able to print the report as one page per each unit name, provider, runday and shift. so it would look like this
Unit A
Provider 1 Runday 1 Shift 1
patient 1
patient 2
PAGE BREAK
Unit A
Provider 1 Runday 1 Shift 2
patient 1
patient 2
PAGE BREAK
Unit A
Provider 1 Runday 2 Shift 1
patient 1
patient 2
So I created a boolean parameter with a prompt of Page break by Unit, Provider, Runday & Shift? My thought is if the users sets this to False, the report will group on just Unit Name (the first example). If the user sets this to True, the report will group on Unit Name, Provider, Runday & Shift.
I set the grouping expression for this data table as:
=iif(Parameters!Grouping.Value = "False", Fields!unit_Name.Value,(Fields!unit_Name.Value,Fields!Lname.Value,Fields!Rundays.ValueFields!Shift.Value))
Within the expression editor window it displays a syntax error and the report will not run.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!

I have a table used by multiple applications. One column is an Identify field and is also used as a Primary key. What isare the best practices to use get the identity value returned after an INSERT made by my code.. I'm worried that if someone does an INSERT into the same table a "zillionth" of a second later than I did, that I could get their Identity value.
TIA,

I have the folloiwng fields:
ProbationLengthYears AS Decimal
ProbationLengthMonths AS Decimal
ProbationLengthDays AS Decimal
Sample Data:
ProbationLengthYears = 2.00
ProbationLengthMonths 0.00
ProbationLengthDays 0.00
I have successfully concatenated and converted all three fields into one field as Follow:
 SELECT
  CONVERT(varchar(10),CAST(cc2.ProbationLengthYears AS INT)) + ' Year(s)' + ' ' +
  CONVERT(varchar(10),CAST(cc2.ProbationLengthMonths AS INT)) + ' Month(s)' + ' ' +
  CONVERT(varchar(10),CAST(cc2.ProbationLengthDays AS INT)) + ' Day(s)'
 The result is:
  2 Year(s) 0 Month(s) 0 Day(s)
Ideally I would like the result to be as follow because the probation months and days are 0:
  2 Year(s).

I have a query that produces seperate rows for people, but I want to combine them into one place. I tried doing this in SQL but apparently it's not very easy in SQL Server. You need to loop through a table using cursors. I'm not quite that advanced with SQL Server and was wondering if there might be an easier way just using SSRS.
In other words I have a table as such:
1 John Smith
2 Jane Doe
3 Matthew Jones
And I'd like to create one textbox that contains the following:
"John Smith, Jane Doe, Matthew Jones"
I've been drawing a blank. Anyone have any ideas?
