I need to build a cube for membership over time. Active membership is the gap from the record's CreationDate to SuspendedDate, as compared to a reference date (today's active members have CreationDates before today, and SuspendedDates > today, or NULL).
Any idea how to build a cube so I can count membership over a Time dimension? The only approach I've been able to come up with is to create a table with a record for each active member on each date (brute force).
Hi all I have a table with one nText Field , some times i need to realize whether two records have the same value in that nText Field or not , so how can i compare these two records based on their ntext Fields.? in the other words i'm looking for some thing like the follows: declare @a nTextdeclare @b nText select @a=MynTextField from MyTable where PK=18select @b=MynTextField from MyTable where PK=21 if @a=@b print 'Records Are the same'else print 'Record are not the same'
I am working with the article that MAK wrote on SecurityLogs http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mssql/article.php/3515886
I have completed this, but I have made some changes to the database (for normalization to 3NF purposes). I now have problems with a query.
I am trying to "Insert a new record in a table if it does not already exist in the table". To try to clarify I perform the following query:
INSERT INTO Tmp_Event SELECT DISTINCT EventID, EventType, EventTypeName from Tmp
Which gives me the Tmp_Event table consisting of EventID's etc. (no duplicates). What I then want to do, is compare the 'Tmp_event' table and an already existing 'Event' table. These two tables are in fact identical. I would like to insert any records from 'Tmp_Event' into 'Event' if they do not already exist in 'Event'.
This query gives me all records that do not exist in 'Event'
SELECT EventID, EventType, EventTYpeName from Tmp_Event WHERE EventID NOT IN (SELECT EventID from Event)
How can I change this query into performing an INSERT INTO Event as well?
I have a table with a DateTime field that has Dates in the format of mm/dd/yyyy I want to do a simple count on the table for the previous day but keep getting 0 for the results. Here is the script I've been trying.
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM mytbl WHERE Collected_Date = DateAdd (dd, -1, GetDate())
It appears to me that the time portion of the DateAdd function keeps the matches that I am looking for from happening. What am I missing or am I going about this all wrong?
I have two name columns in my table, NAME1 & NAME2 that I want to compare to see if they match. Only problem is that the order of the first, last, middle name can be either same or different between the two fields.
For example NAME1 = JAY JOHN SMITH NAME2 = JOHN SMITH JAY or SMITH JOHN JAY
Is there a way to somehow reorder these fields and then compare using SQL?
My situation is this: I have a requirement table,in the requirement table i have a field which is allow_multiple,if it allows multiple the value is 1 and 0 if it will not allow and also I have an insert storedprocedure for inserting licenses which will be added in the Staffl table.When i insert a new license for the staff,it should check in the requirement table if the new inserted lincense does have 0 or 1 value in the allow multiple field.If it has a value of 0 the new license should not be inserted.What would be the good way to compare the existing licenses of the staff and the newluy added?
We have hidden few measure groups in cube for time being, where Users can browse the cube with Excel pivot. But, All these measures can be seen from Excel pivot in 'Show fields related to' drop down.
Need to remove the hidden measure groups from showing in Excel pivot and to remove 'All' option in 'Show Fields related to', So that users may not get confused by seeing all the measures. Can we achieve this.
I have the following table structure.group1 group2 group1_result group2_result'One' 'Two' 3 2'One' 'Two' 3 1'One' 'Two' 2 5'One' 'Two' 4 1'One' 'Two' 0 5I need to sum up the number of times 'One' is greater than 'Two', andvice-versa. For example, the result I would like to achieve is asfollows.group1 group2 group1_total group2_total'One' 'Two' 3 2I'm using the following SQL statement, but I get 5 rows returned,giving me a '1' or '0' for each row.select group1, group2,sum(CASE WHEN group1_result > group2_result THEN 1 ELSE 0 END),sum(CASE WHEN group2_result > group12_result THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)FROM table1GROUP BY group1, group2Any help would be greatly appreciated.
In my cube there are two measures which are used in different calculations.Now I'm need to show in report if there any months in data when both or even another one of the measures is not updated (value = 0 or NULL).
how should I create the calculated measure for that?
I have tried in mgmt studio to plan this but I'm in a loop of errors.
I am wondering how to create a matrix that contains 1 dimension for Top Label (Column), let's say "Year-Month" and then 2 Measure to be in the row format rather than columnar format. Example as below : Year-Month on the column, and the measure is on the row :
2007-04 2007-05 2007-06
Amount Sales 1000 2000 3000
Unit Sales 10 20 30
Total 1010 2020 3030
Please share with me if you have this solution in Reporting services as it works in excel, hyperion brio, bo, cognos but somehow cannot see that function in Reporting Services.
In SSAS, I want to add a calculated measure and set that measure as the Parent of existing measure. For example I have the measures as A and B from the fact table. Now i want to add a calculated measure as C and set this measure as Parent for measures A and B. How to do that in SSAS.
I have just started using SQL Server reporting services and am stuck with creating subreports.
I have a added a sub report to the main report. When I right click on the sub report, go to properties -> Parameters, and click on the dropdown for Parameter Value, I see all Sum and Count fields but not the data fields.
For example, In the dropdownlist for the Parameter value, I see Sum(Fields!TASK_ID.Value, "AppTest"), Count(Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, "CammpTest") but not Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, Fields!TASK_ID.Value which are the fields retrieved from the dataset assigned to the subreport.
When I manually change the parameter value to Fields!TASK_ID.Value, and try to preview the report, I get Error: Subreport could not be shown. I have no idea what the underlying issue is but am guessing that it's because the field - Fields!TASK_ID.Value is not in the dropdown but am trying to link the main report and sub report with this field.
Am I missing something here? Any help is appreciated.
How can I create a Table whose one field will be 'tableid INT IDENTITY(1,1)' and other fields will be the fields from the table "ashu". can this be possible in SQL Server without explicitly writing the"ashu" table's fields name.

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:
I would like to search a table for a phrase, or for a partial phrase,eg on table product - for name or description, or name + descprition.How does one say select * from product where name + description like%phrase%or contains phraseCurrently I can get where name, or where descriotion like %phrase%,eg, where name like krups, or where description like coffee makerBut if I search for where name like %krups coffee maker% i get noresults. krups is in the name field, coffee maker is in thedescription field.Thanks,-M
I have a dimension called "Movement rate". The members are "1" to "6". There is a measure called "No. of Products".
What i easily like to do is showing the percentages "No. of Product" for each "Movement rate" of the amount of "No. of Products" without using the frontend-tool.
There is count measure in the cube. I need to create a dimension that should list the range of values based on that count values: Exp:
0-99 100-199 200-399 ... .... .. and so on. User wants to pick the any range level in the dimension and cube should show corresponding cell values of count measure which would fall into range of the dimension level value. For example: if user picks up level 100-199 then cube would filter cell values of measure that has a value between 100 and 199 within 12 month range. So, it would be year to date value of the measure. My problem is how go about creating Dimension that based on measure in the cube and dimension should have level with range of measure values. Any hint would be appreciated greatly. Thank You.
for a calculated measure I need the total sum of a measure in different dimension. So for example I want to get in my first dimesion 1500 as my sum and in my second dimension too. Is there a way to get it? (FirstDimension.CurrentMember.Parent, [Measures].myMeasure) doesn´t work!
Hi, I am newbie in Analysis services. My problem is that I have to show a yearly report for credit expiry. In my fact table the measure is credit rate. I have attributes of start_day_key and end_day_key. Now when I go through analysis services it does not let me create a measure so that I can count end_day_key for a year (end_day_key is linked to day table with daykey. It has date) and show. The thing is the measure I want is not stored (i.e: the count of end days for a year ). How do I go about it?
Should I create a calculated cell? (I tried that, but mdx does not work) I used : Count({[Measures].[End Key]})< 366 Now this is not wha I want, I want the end_key count by matching date in day dimension for the current year? Any help is greatly appreciated.
I have a dataset that needs to return "Fatalities Involving drivers age 15-17". For years 2003 , 2004, 2005.
So i set up 3 different filters: Year : 2003,2004,2005
Person type: Driver
Age : 15,16,17
Now this is fine for getting a crash count and fatalities (for teen drivers). But i want the fatalities for everyone ( All Person Types) and (All Ages) ...how do i go about this. All i get right now, is the fatalities for Drivers 15-17.
I need to create one or two tables in the database. There are a few ways I can design these tables, so I€™d like to measure data loading performance. My primary concern is level of IO generated by SELECT. I don€™t expect CPU utilization to have any meaningful impact, but it would be nice to know how to measure processor utilization as well. PerformanceMonitor application is not really an option, because it measures IO and CPU at SQL Server process level. My development box is not going to match production boxes, so I would like to measure IO in terms of amount of data loaded from disks instead of timing stored procedure execution. The same is true for stored procedure CPU utilization. It is my understanding that SQL Server keeps table content loaded in memory as much as possible to improve performance. How do I negate effect of caching on my IO numbers?
I have created a table in the sql server 7.0 and I wanted to know the what is the size of the table, is there any storeprocedure or command that can be used to measure the space used by the table in the database
I am a newbye with Analysis Services and am desperately trying to find a way to include a calculation between one of my measures (Teus), divided by the vessel capacity, where vessel is one of my dimensions (and is therefore not depended on other dimensions...)
Any ideas how I could implement that ?? This would help a lot, thanks for your help,
I have a Sales cube and I want to be able to display Products and the Price at which they were purchased in a given period. I have a Product dimension while Price is a measure in my Sales Fact Table. Is there a way to have a "Group By" aggregation instead of a Sum? This way, I can show Products grouped by their list price.
My Product Dimension consists of product_numbers (such as 100, 101, 102 etc...) My Sales Fact Table consists of sales data (such as product_key, price, net_sales, returns, etc...) at the transaction level.
where Net_sales and Returns are "summed" and Price is simply a "Group By". In other words, this report would show the net sales and returns by product for a given price.
I'd rather not use a Price dimension since we have hundreds of products at hundreds of different prices. Moreover, this data is already in the Sales Fact table.
Hello,could you please advice on how to measure replication performancein Oracle, DB2 & MS SQL Server RDBMS installed in Windows servers ?I've got two servers with databases installed and configured,I prepared set of data using DBGEN from TPC and I already imported theminto databases.Also, I configured the replication.Now I have to do a test with a few kind of replications methodimplemented in these RDMBS, but I don't know which tool or reports or"v$iews" should I use to measure replication performance.The replication is configured only between the same RDBMS, I meanOracle <-Oracle, DB2 <-DB2 and MSSQL<-MSSQL.Most of applications are great for checking performance of local DB,not for replicated/distributed.I've found description of CA Unicenter Database Performance Managementfor distributed RDMBS, and I think it could be the right one, but Ican't find any demo or trial version :(Could you please advice any place to download it, or other application,script, description, just whatever.Perhaps just any other idea how to check the replication mechanismefficiency ?Regards,Mark
