Complex Sql Logic... Need Help

Feb 15, 2007

okay;

i have a table called tblSlots
tblSlots is a list of Start datetimes and End datetimes.
every day has the same list of 10 slots.

tblSlots:
PKSlotINDEX
datStartTime
datEndTime

then i have a table called tblPersons

tblPersons:
PKPersonINDEX
txtLast
txtFirst

then i have a table called tblSchedule

tblSchedule:
PKScheduleINDEX
fkSlotINDEX
fkPersonINDEX

i want to write a query that takes any one specific person's schedule for an entire specific day, adds an arbitrary number of days to datStartTime, and finally inserts the PKSlotINDEX corresponding to the calcultated StartTime and fkPersonINDEX.

wow complicated isnt it...

the goal is to take the schedule of one day for one person and copy it to another day; i can scrap my current layout if necessary.


thanks!

Looking For The Change Using A Complex Logic

Apr 25, 2008

I have records like below

ID Facility Procedure Date Action

1001 A 888 07/01/2007

1002 A 888 07/31/2007

1003 B 888 09/01/2007

1004 B 888 09/15/2007

1005 B 888 10/11/2007

1006 B 999 10/24/2007

1007 B 777 10/25/2007

1008 B 777 10/30/2007



I have to update an action column based on the business logic below.

1. if there is a change in FACILITY with the same PROCEDURE and the DATE between new facility and the date of previous record is less than 30 days ,

then update ACTION = TP

2. if there is a change in procedure , update Action = TS

3. is there is a change in FACILITY but have different PROCEDURE, then NO UPDATE



The output should look like below:

ID 1003 has TP because the FACILITY has changed with the same PROCEDURE compare to the previous record and the DATE is less than 30 days

ID 1006 has TS because the PROCEDURE has changed compare to previous record

ID 1009 didn’t get changed because it has different PROCEDURE even though FACILITY got changed...



ID Facility Procedure Date Action

1001 A 888 07/01/2007

1002 A 888 07/31/2007

1003 B 888 08/05/2007 TP

1004 B 888 09/15/2007

1005 B 888 10/11/2007

1006 B 999 10/24/2007 TS

1007 B 999 10/25/2007

1008 B 777 10/30/2007 TS

1009 D 666 11/07/2007



What is the best way to do this? Do I have to use a cursor to compare each record? Can you sow me some code examples?

Complex Row Level Security Logic In SecurityFilter

Oct 8, 2007

Hi, I am trying to replicate the row level security rules in reporting service and realize the "security filter" property is a pure client side filter expression.

In our old system, we are using a set of rules to decide the row level security, something like:

if user is owner of this file or
( if user's department matches this file and the user is the department manager ) or
if this user has unfinished task associated with this file or
...

So obviously it need more information than the just GetUserId(). What we have done is creating a CLR UDF as GetUserCaseList( int uid ) and returns a two column table ( case_id, case_right ).

We want to somehow inject these logics into the reporting while the user is using reportBuilder.exe, but we cannot find a way to put it into the data source view and/or the semantic data model.

I am pretty sure I am not the only guy who's having this problem, but I cannot find any hint....

Thanks in advance.

Is There Any Easy Way To Evaluate Complex Date Logic In Expressions?

Dec 7, 2006

Hello all,

I am new to SSIS, so I am hoping there is an easier way to do this...

I need to evaluate a date in a field and determine if it is between the beginning and end of whatever the current month is...  In Access, this was written as something like:

 

IIF(datevalue >= CDate(Format(Now(),"mm/01/yy")) AND datevalue < CDate(Format(DateAdd("m",1,Now()), "mm/01/yy)), value1, value2)

 

Trying to recreate this in SSIS using expressions during a derived transformation has been extremely difficult.  Here is what I came up with:

 (DUE_DATE >= (DT_DATE)( (DT_WSTR,2)MONTH(GETDATE())+"/01/"+ (DT_WSTR,2)YEAR(GETDATE()))) && (DUE_DATE<(DT_DATE)( (DT_WSTR,2)MONTH( DATEADD("m",1,GETDATE()) )+"/01/"+(DT_WSTR,2)YEAR( DATEADD("m",1,GETDATE() )))) ? value1 : value2



 

Any help you all could give would be appreciated.

 

Thanks!

 

Josh

Complex DB Search Forms (Store Proc Vs. Complex Where)

Nov 12, 2003

I have web forms with about 10-15 optional search parameters (fields) for a give table. Each item (textbox) in the form is treated as an AND condition.

Right now I build complex WHERE clauses based on wheather data is present in a textbox and AND each one in the clause. Also, if a particular field is "match any word", i get a ANDed set of OR's. As you can imagine, the WHERE clause gets quite large.

I build clauses like this (i.e., 4 fields shown):

SELECT * from tableName WHERE (aaa like '%data') AND (bbb = 'data') AND (ccc like 'data%') AND ( (xxx like '%data') OR (yyy like '%data%') )

My question is, are stored procedures better for building such dynamic SQL clauses? I may have one field or all fifteen. I've written generic code for building the clauses, but I don't know much about stored procedures and am wondering if I'm making this more difficult on myself.

Need Some Logic Help

May 10, 2008

Can anyone see where my logic may have gone a stray?
A user would be attempting to update a gridview row, I'm storing the amount of an item and the qty they purchased. If the order was for $150 and the grid has two item 1 x $50 and 2 x $50 the order already totals $150, so if the user tries to change the first item to a qty of 2 x $50 the total would be $200 and this would be more than the total payment or $150.
I want to then tell them they cannot do this.
@AP_ID Int,@AI_ID int,@PurchaseAmount money,@PurchaseQTY int,@LastUpdate datetime,@LastUpdateBy nvarchar(50),@Receipt_ID intASdeclare @current_item_total decimal(18,2)declare @new_item_total decimal(18,2)declare @total_payments decimal(18,2)declare @current_purchase table(receipt_id int,purchase_amt money)INSERT INTO @current_purchase SELECT  tblPurchase.Receipt_ID,(tblPurchase.PurchaseAmount * tblPurchase.PurchaseQty) as purchase_amtFROM         tblPurchase INNER JOIN                      tblReceipts ON tblPurchase.Receipt_ID = tblReceipts.Receipt_IDWHERE tblReceipts.Receipt_ID=@receipt_id--Get total already saved to recordselect @current_item_total = sum(purchase_amt) from @current_purchase--Get total amount of payment saved to recordselect @total_payments = sum(tblReceipts.AmountPaid) from tblReceipts where tblReceipts.receipt_id=@receipt_id--Get total amount user is trying to save to recordset @new_item_total = (@PurchaseAmount * @PurchaseQTY)--If current total plus new total is greater than total payment, tell user they cannot do this.IF ((@current_item_total + @new_item_total) > @total_payments)BEGINSELECT 'You are attempting to add more than your total payment.'

Need Some Logic Help

Jan 6, 2004

Trying to bind some data to a datalist for a report.

User selects an Industry from a dropdown list and then I dump all records for that industry. However in order to parse some of the record field values into names (I.E. from a 1 to the actual company name) for some records I have to read TABLE_ONE and for other records I might have to read TABLE_TWO depending on the value of FIELD_ONE.

If FIELD_ONE = "A" then I get the NAME from TABLE_ONE.
If FIELD_ONE = "B" then I get the NAME from TABLE_TWO.
If FIELD_ONE = "C" then I get the NAME from TABLE_THREE.

I'm lost at how to get started on this. I thought about adding IF statements to my query but these won't work because I'm not passing in the value of FIELD_ONE ahead of time - it's part of the query. So I thought maybe I could do a pre-read and store all FIELD_ONE values in an ArrayList and pass these in as parameters, but the stored proc is only being called once - so that won't work.

Any thoughts on how I can do this?

Is This Right Logic

Jun 12, 2007

What i'm trying to do is if this column dt.IN_DIV_NO is populated take that value first if it's null than rr.AIQ_R_DIVISION_NO and if that column is null than rr.F_DIVISION_NO.

This is what i came up with, will it evaluate the way i need it to?

SQL Logic

Mar 13, 2008

I have a logic problem,

I am selecting from a table

Select * from TAB_A
where state not in (1,4)
and create_date < '2008-01-01'
and
(
(x != 2 and y != 1 and z != 4) or
(x != 6 and y != 3 and z != 1) or
(x != 8 and y != 0 and z != 9)
)


then for example i am getting results where x,y and z is equal to one
or more of above combinations ?

Now i vaguely remember that using or with a != messes up the logic ?
if so can i use an NOR ? does it exist ?

Logic To Use

Mar 25, 2008



I am looking for the best approach to update a table's column based on the results of two other different tables. My tables structure is as follows.


Table 1 has columns A and B (tblemployee has location and employeenumber )
Table 2 has columns C and A (tblocation has locationID (identity) and location)
Table 3 has coumns C and B (tblcountry locationID (foreign key) and employeenumber.)

I want to update Table 3 (tblcountry) with the new locationID if and employee changes location or gets miscoded using an SSIS package.

Thanks in advance.

SQL Logic Problem

May 21, 2007

I'm trying to figure out how to track what messages have been read by what users in a message board program we wrote. The users are identified by an ID number and each message has a unique number.
Let's say there are 10000 users and 200,000 messages. What would be the database setup/logic to track every user as to what messages they had read or not read? Maybe I'm missing something but it does not seem to be a  trivial task.

Db Logic - Can't Put It Back Together

Feb 27, 2006

Hi there!
Hope somebody got some better insight into this problem than i have. I'm struggling with some db logic.
Overview:
I have a client who is a publisher. They would like to post all their advert-size specs for each magazine to their web site. My first thought was that ill be able to build one table and populate it with the information for each magazine. I was wrong. Each magazine comes in a different size. Thus each magazine will have different advert-sizes as well.
Layout for a magazine will look something like this:
Size              Trim          Type           Bleed
Full Page      280x440     270x430       290x450
Half Page     140x220     130x210       150x230
etc...
Some mags will not have values for Half pages since they dont print half pages and others will not have specs for Bleed.
Because of this - as an easy way out I created a table per magazine. It works but i dont think its very smart.
 
Break it down!
Ok so what im trying as a solution is to have three tables. The 1st table will hold the magID and Size values (e.g Half Page). The 2nd table will also have the magID and the Trim, Type, Bleed info. The 3rd table holds magID, sizeID, specID and the actual value (140x220).
I thought that this would be better because within these three tables i can store the information for each magazine regardless of their differences. Brilliant!
 
The Problem.
The problem comes when i have to put it all back together again. I need to represent this data in a table so i can bind it to a datagrid. I have NO idea how to do this. What i THINK i need to have is some temp table created on the fly. The row names for this temp table will come from the 1st table. The column names will come from the 2nd table and the values for each field will come from the 3rd table bound by foreign keys.
I've somewhat managed to do this with INNER JOINS. But it doesn't give the desired result. I need to set row and column NAMES using tables 1 & 2 then populate the columns with table 3, then bind to a datagrid.
 
Any ideas on how i could manage this?
 
If you made it tis far through my question then thanks anyways! I hope you can help me out!

Help With JOIN Logic...

Jul 27, 2004

Arrrgggg, nothing makes any sence any more. I need to write a select statement that will display results based on one of two things...

Zip Code OR City State

By the way this is a Table of addresses with zip codes, I also have a Lat/Long table associated to all the different zip codes that need to be joined.

The Psuedo code is somethinglike this...

SHOW All People WITH Appropreate Longditude and Latitude
Who Live
In @This ZipCode
OR
(In @State AND @City)

-------------------
Table Dealers
-------------------
dlrID - varchar
dlrName - varchar
dlrAddress - varchar
dlrCity - varchar
dlrState - varchar
dlrZip - varchar
dlrCountry - varchar
-------------------

-------------------
Table ZipCodes
-------------------
zipCode
zipCity
zipState
zipCountrty
zipLat
zipLong
...
-------------------

I have achieved this with Joins but the query takes 2+ minutes to execute

What am I doing wrong??? I am sure there is a better approach to this!

Thanks,
--Lito

Logic Problem

Oct 9, 2006

Hi,

This might just be my brain not working after the weekend, but I'm having problems working out just how to do this.

The table:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tblQuiz] (
[id] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,
[q1] [nvarchar] (100) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[q2] [nvarchar] (100) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[q3] [nvarchar] (100) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[q4] [nvarchar] (100) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[q5] [nvarchar] (100) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[q6] [nvarchar] (100) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[q7] [nvarchar] (100) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[q8] [nvarchar] (100) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[quizdate] [datetime] NULL ,
[ipaddress] [nvarchar] (50) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[sessionid] [nvarchar] (50) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[score] [int] NULL
)



The field [q5] has one of three values in it: "Happy", "Unhappy" or "Neither".

I have a list of about 50 session ID's. If a record in [tblQuiz] has a [sessionid] that matches one in this list, then:
if [q5]= 'Happy' then change it to 'Unhappy'
if [q5]= 'Unhappy' then change it to 'Happy'

The only way I can think of is to change all of one matching record type to some other value, then change all the other type, then change all the original type back to the other type. Which doesn't make much sense even when I've written it down, much less when I'm doing it and have to remember where I'm at. Is there a better way?

Query Logic - SQL Help

Jun 8, 2007

I have some table data and know how I want the results but I'm just having a bit of trouble in constructing the SQL logic to obtain the desired results. There's a site where visitors are able to select from a list of parts, and it will return a set of model/products that they can produce with the selected parts. Here's the data ...


tblModel tblPart
ModelId ModelName PartId PartName
---------------------- ----------------------
1 Alpha 1 CHOO1 Stem
2 Bravo 2 BH034 Rod
3 Bravo Pro 3 HRE Seat


tblModelPart
ModelPartId ModelId PartId
---------------------------------
1 1 1
2 2 1
3 2 3
4 3 1
5 3 2
6 3 3


... and here's the logic that I'm trying to implement, assume that the user selects from a form, parts with the PartId 1 and 3 ...

1. Return all models that contain only the parts selected.

ModelId ModelName
---------------------
2 Bravo

2. Return all models that contain the parts selected, and may contain other parts.

ModelId ModelName
---------------------
2 Bravo
3 Bravo Pro

... so do you have any idea on how the SQL would look for either of these queries?

Thanks in advance,
Goran

Help(query) Need In This Logic.

Mar 20, 2008

I have two tables X,Y
X
empno....Sal.....Tax.....Returns...name
1.....4500....1050.... 750.......robert
2.....5750.....1560....900.......john
3.....4000.....900.....600.......keen

2.....5750.....1200....900.......john
3.....4000.....900.....600.......keen
4.....6100....1000.....1000.......stauton

If you see the above tables I have data mismatch in X and Y tables for the same empno.
I need to write a query which shows emp no and columns(name of col) where the data mismatch has occured.
I came up with a query which I have to write for every individual column to get the mismatch.
Since there 120 columns it is pretty hard task..i m looking for a logic where I can write a query which shows mismatched data in columns.

Expected Output
table z
col1..col2
1......tax
3......tax
Appreciate your help.
