Extract Data From Database - SELECT DISTINCT But Up To 3?
Sep 29, 2014
I'm trying to extract data from our database for the number of phone calls our reps are doing.
In counting the calls I only want to include up to 3 calls to the same customer (field name is CompanyID) per day - anything more than this is ignored.
The query at the moment is something like:
SELECT COUNT(CallID) AS CallCount FROM Sales_Calls WHERE CallDate >= '2014-09-01' AND CallDate <= '2014-09-30' AND RepID = 1
Using MSSQL 2012.
I have a problem in extracting information pertaing to a key value and matching that key value to another transaction but the order is based on another value in the same row.
Requirement using the above data is to extract data where the ret_ref_no is the same for more than one row but also check that the msg_type 420 happens before the 200. Is there a way of retrieving the information in this way using the tran_nr coloumn values? The tran_nr values is basically the serial number when the transaction is wrriten away to the DB.
I've managed only to retrive the 1st half of my query whereby the same ret_ref_nr is being used by more then one transaction. Still need to figure out the 2nd part where the msg_type of 420 happens before the 200.
SELECT * FROM SAMPLE WHERE ret_ref_no in ( SELECT ret_ref_no FROM SAMPLE GROUP BY ret_ref_no HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 )
Hi,Anybody have an idea of copying data from tables of a database to anotherdatabase. It should be a choice to select all tables, single table orseveral tables.For them knowing Oracle it is possible to do it with 'exp', where you canchoose to script the database with or without data. So I am trying to getalike to MSSQL. The job is to unload data from a database with onestructure to another database with another structure.Thanks in advanceBest regardsTom Frank
I have a table 'wRelated' with the following columns
[related_id] [int] [channel_id] [int] [mui] [varchar] [price_group_id] [type_id] [int] [related_mui] [varchar] (100) [date_started] [smalldatetime] [date_ended] [smalldatetime] [date_entered] [datetime] [deleted] [tinyint], [rank] [int] data in column [mui] is repeated as the table has more than one entries for the same [mui], The requirement is to select the distinct[mui] but value in all the other columns for the same mui should be select in the next row with null for the same [mui] The recordset expected should be something like this.
INSERT INTO #LatLong SELECT DISTINCT Latitude, Longitude FROM RGCcache
When I run it I get the following error: "Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK__#LatLong__________7CE3D9D4'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.#LatLong'."
Im not sure how this is failing as when I try creating another table with 2 decimal columns and repeated values, select distinct only returns distinct pairs of values.
The failure may be related to the fact that RGCcache has about 10 million rows, but I can't see why.
My task is simple, I want to use the execute sql task editor to grab a value from a database in Access and put it in a variable. The connection is via ODBC and the access database is protected by a password.
I've done all the preliminary stuff such as running profiler to make sure that the package is getting the call to the database, setting up the ResultSet to be "single row" in the general tab, mapped the Result Set correctly, but nothing works. I get the same error every time.
This is my sql command:
select count(FingerPrintID) as FingerPrint
from Employee
Result Set is set up like this:
Result Name: FingerPrint ; Variable Name: User:: varDataset
Here is the error I get:
Error: 0xC002F309 at Execute SQL Task, Execute SQL Task: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "varDataset": "Value does not fall within the expected range.".
My variable is set up as a Int16.
Please help!!!!!
If you could provide step by step example's that would really make my day.
Please guide me urgently how to extract data in SSIS from 10 identical oracle database into 1 sql server database. There is a table which list all the 10 databases.
Good afternoon SQL dudes Does anyone have any experience of extracting data from IBM's UniData (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UniData) (or any post-relational Pick nested relational multi-valued relational database) into a SQL Server?More info here (http://www.rpbourret.com/xml/ProdsXMLEnabled.htm), here (http://www.pick-ware.co.uk/) and here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pick_operating_system) I don't (which is why I am asking) but I could imagine it being a right bugger. No need for detailed or technical info - I have no more info at this stage - just wondered if anyone has any similar experience. Super duper, thank you SQL troopers :)
Why does it take me 4 hours to set up an SSIS package that I can run from a SQL job to extract data from a SQL database to and Excel workbook. Shouldn't this be easy to do with 2 Microsoft products? Writing the query to extract the data takes 10 minutes, the rest of this process should take less than that.Â
I should be able to create a new job that runs my query (I can actually do that) and saves the data to an Excel workbook. Why can't I do that?
Hi Everyone, Am a third year student doing work placement. Could anyone please give me clues on how to go about extracting data from a LDAP and then into an SQL database?
1 A defined subset of data is to be extracted from GDS on a nightly basis, 2 Then imported into a SQL database for quick & easy retrieval. 3 A web interface is required to present data retrieved from the SQL database.
what i need to do for my project are as following:
a mobile user send data via GPRS to SQL server Database. then i need to have a method to detect while a particular table is being inserted. and then extract data from table construct a report dynamiclly. what should i do to achieve this goal? e.g. window application, store procedure or trigger ?
PS : client side is a mobile application developed using MCL. i don't in which way he will send all data to SQL server Database, so what i need to do is to monitor new data inserting.
2) how to auto generate and print report directly after record been inserted into the table ? Do i need to import report web service API ? if yes, which one? or i can use other methods e.g. predefine report control view in my window application, turn off pop-up menu while printing a report(I guess)
Looking for sample ETL package to extract data from SQL Sever Database and load into Oracle Database using SQL SERVER INTEGRATION SERVICES 2008. The requirement is for full load and incremental load both.

Is their a way to select all items from a table that are not distinct? Meaning, I want to know which items in a column occur more than once. Example: Suppose we have a table with student names, ss# and address. I want to display only records where their is more than one studen with the same name. So for example their could be ten people with the name of "Mike" in a class?

Hi! I have 4 tables and they have a common column (eg. regionid). These 4 tables have data overlapping with the others. Some data exist in a table but not on the others. What I want to do is to do a select that will display all distinct regionid from these tables. It should be total of all the tables but will suppress any duplicates with the others.
Note that UNION is working but I can't use that. Why ? because UNION is not supported or maybe not working properly with RDB database. I'm doing an appliaction for heterogenous datasource.
Any tips, hints or info will be appreciated. thanks in advance.
SELECT DISTINCT tb2.column20 tb2.column20, tb1.column10, tb2.column21, tb2.column22, tb3.column30 FROM table1 tb1, table2 tb2, table3 tb3 WHERE tb1.column11 = 'P' AND tb2.column23 = 'P' AND tb1.column12 = tb2.column24 AND tb2.column25 = tb3.column31 ORDER BY tb2.column20
Its supposed to return only the distinct entries in tb2.column20
Can you have "Select Distinct" in Union Query,because that is what I am trying to do and this is the error message I get.
"The text, ntext, or image data type cannot be selected as DISTINCT."
I would need to do that because i have duplicate records,because these records are getting written into the db when templates are generated and sometimes if they double click it generates two and writes that many results as well, so that is why I was thinking that select distinct would solve my problem.
Thanks for your help

I need some help getting unique records from a query, I have a large amount of nested selects and i want to only display distinct records, I have a unique identifier (party ID) but the code was written by someone else (who is on holiday!) and i need to work out where to insert the disctinct select (if at all? - open to a better way?) this query should pull back records and then the results are pasted in to excel, however would a DTS solve the issue with duplicates??
Any help more than appreciated!

I have a select query Select distinct a,b,c,d from xyz I would like to know what the syntax is if I want only a,b,c to be distinct and not d. I tried something like Select (distinct a,b,c),d but getting error what is the correct query to do this. Please help.
I don't know what the correct syntax is to do what I want with the DISTINCTfunction (if it's actually possible).I have a query which displays a variety of fields from a variety of tables(pretty standard).However, I only want to show records where the contents of one particularcolumn in the query are unique - I do not want to perform the function onthe entire record because other fields in the records may be duplicated foras reason.
I have a query that selects profile data for members, if I don€™t do a select distinct it gives me a lot of correct values, (unique values) of members i.e. only one record per member, but every now and then I get duplicate values for one member, multiple times.
Why does this occure?
I know SELECT DISTINCT is there to remove duplicates, but without SELECT DISTINCT why would this €œmistake€? happen?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I.e.
2 | 3 | John | Slack | Philips |5 1 | 2 | Jason | Limrick | Jones | 3 1 | 2 | Jason | Limrick | Jones | 3 1 | 2 | Jason | Limrick | Jones | 3 1 | 2 | Jason | Limrick | Jones | 3 1 | 2 | Jason | Limrick | Jones | 3 2 | 3 | Jane | John | Parker |4
Why would it create duplicate records if the values are the same?
