Hello All,
I have a problem concerning keeping track of a value within a query.
I have a table that tracks invoices recieved and payments made.
For each invoice number there may be multiple payments made against it.
I need something that will check and make sure that each invoice number has its payments equal to its received amount.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Hi
We need to keep track of all changes that are made to our tables.
The changes will be saved in a table that records:
- the table in which the change was made
- the name of the field that was changed
- the old data for the field
- the new data for the field etc..
I've seen a few examples that record the name of the table that was
modified but none that record done to the field level.
Can anybody give some guidance?
Thanks..

Let's say I develop a 'version 1' of a program/database and ship it to some customers.
Then I continue work on version 2 with some databasechanges etc.
When version 2 is shipped to the customers, they need a way to upgrade their database
from version 1 to version 2. I guess this is easiest done with one/several sql-scripts.
What I want is your opinion about the best way to keep track of the changes between
version 1 and 2. Here are two ways with pros and cons I've thought of:
1 - Keep manual track of every change (index, changed columns, relations etc) and update a scriptfile with all changes.
Pros: Full control of what is happening
Cons: Pretty much extra work and risk of missing some changes.
2 - When version 2 is ready, run some third party tool to get a diff between the databases
Pros: Fast and easy
Cons: The DB-changes may need to be applied in a special order, with default values, etc etc and I'm not sure all tools handle this in a good way...?
So... what is your recomendations? I'm sure this must be a headace in every development project?

I have a trigger that keeps track of status changes...
IF UPDATE(STATUS)
BEGIN
DECLARE @currentdate datetime
DECLARE @currentstatus integer
DECLARE @UserID integer
DECLARE @PermitID integer
DECLARE @Status integer
[Code] .....
It works but not the way I want it to. The @currentstatus and @newstatus are the same. I want the status before and after the update. I asked around as to how to do this and some one told me to use the Deleted table.
I'm actually taking Microsoft's 2779 and just finished a lab where wekept track of our changes to the database.However, I'm not happy with the scripts interface because it does nottell me the chronological order of my changes to the database.Could someone share with me their technique for keeping track ofdatabase changes?I'm actually thinking a set of tables would be best, because sometimesyou want to know what database object you made a change to and othertimes you want to know when you did something...
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have four fields in two different tables.
ID, field1, field2 and field3 in Table 1 has value 1 or 0. Type integer.
ID, field1, field2 and field3 in table2 are text fields.
If field1 in table1 has value 1, then there should be a text value in corresponding field in table2. That is, in field1 in table2.
However, if there is value 0 in field1 in table1 there should not be any value in the corresponding field in table2.
Now it is not always so, which do that I want to make a track of which fields miss match in these two tables.
How do I list them on the smartest ways? ID links the tables.
This will get me what I need based on an entered client id, but what is I want it to return the last payment date and amt for all loans? I tried removing the two where clauses and it only returned the last payment entered but not for all loans.SELECT dbo.tblLoan.Client_ID, MAX(dbo.tblPayments.PaymentDate) AS [Last Pay Date], SUM(dbo.tblPayments.AmountPaid) AS [Last Pay Amt]
FROM dbo.tblLoan INNER JOIN
dbo.tblPayments ON dbo.tblLoan.Loan_ID = dbo.tblPayments.Loan_ID
WHERE (dbo.tblLoan.Client_ID = @Client_ID)
AND dbo.tblPayments.PaymentDate =
(
SELECT TOP 1 p.PaymentDate
FROM dbo.tblPayments p
INNER JOIN dbo.tblLoan l
ON l.Loan_ID = p.Loan_ID
WHERE l.Client_ID = @Client_ID
ORDER BY p.PaymentDate DESC
)
GROUP BY dbo.tblLoan.Client_ID
I need to get the clientid, last payment date, and last payment amount. I have tried using MAX but this does not work. Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? I get all payments and all dates. I'm summing the payment amount incase they made two payments on the same day, not likely but...
SELECT dbo.tblLoan.Client_ID, MAX(dbo.tblPayments.PaymentDate) AS [Last Pay Date], SUM(dbo.tblPayments.AmountPaid) AS [Last Pay Amt]FROM dbo.tblLoan INNER JOIN dbo.tblPayments ON dbo.tblLoan.Loan_ID = dbo.tblPayments.Loan_IDGROUP BY dbo.tblLoan.Client_IDHAVING (dbo.tblLoan.Client_ID = @Client_ID)
I'm trying to learn how to handle a payment schedule for small loan payments. I have the following structure:
tblClient, ClientID
tblLoan, LoanID, ClientID
tblPayments, PayID, PayDate, PayAmt, LoanID
tblLoanPaymentSchedule, ScheduleID, LoanID, PayDueDate, PayDueAmt, ReminderPrintDate, ReminderSentDate, PaymentRecDate
I have a page that batches (holds) all the payments in a work table and I can post them to the correct loan record but I'm just not sure how I would ask a stored procedure to mark the tblLoanPaymentSchedule with the PaymentRecDate for each payment posted. The schedule is pregenerated so that a payment due reminder can be sent out.
I appreciate any suggestions,
I use the following sql in a view to return the last payment date and amount made by clients. What I need is a way to return the payment date and amount for the payment prior to the last one.
Any help is appreciated very much,
SELECT dbo.tblPaymentReceipts.Client_ID, dbo.tblPaymentReceipts.PaymentDate AS LastPayDate, SUM(dbo.tblPaymentReceipts.AmountPaid) AS LastPayAmtFROM dbo.tblPaymentReceipts INNER JOIN (SELECT Client_ID, MAX(PaymentDate) AS LastPayDate FROM dbo.tblPaymentReceipts AS tblPaymentReceipts_1 GROUP BY Client_ID) AS A ON dbo.tblPaymentReceipts.Client_ID = A.Client_ID AND dbo.tblPaymentReceipts.PaymentDate = A.LastPayDateGROUP BY dbo.tblPaymentReceipts.Client_ID, dbo.tblPaymentReceipts.PaymentDate
Hi,
I'm using SQL Server 7. I have two tables as follows:
Table Invoices:
CustNo
DocDate
Amount
Table Payments:
CustNo
DocDate
Amount
Can anyone think of a process to find the invoice with no payment for each customer? I need to do some kind of process of elimination; I suppose.
Any Suggestions?
Thanks,
Denise

How do I keep th job history of a job, say if I re-create the job?
We recreate the jobs often as part of a code move, but I'd like to retain the history of the previous jobs?
** sp_help_jobhistory -- only shows the jobs that exist, and not old jobs that no longer reside on the server.
Thanks,

Hi all, here are my goals: Have the same DB on two different stand-alone computers, and keep them up-to-date from each other.
Basically a user would input to a DB for a week. Then every week or two, update the other stand alone DB with the new input. The DB would be exactly the same.
What are my options for this? I'd like it as easy as possible! Are there any software packages that deal with this type of transfer, etc.? Thank you!
Hello
my table :
Report :

RName
RDate
i am having a few 10.0000 lines and i want to keep the last 10 (or less if not in the table) rows maximum for each name
i can have 100 report by name (100 rows with the same name and of course R_id and RDate are different)
how can i do it ?
thanks a lot for helping
Hi, I have the following code in a query:
SELECT [Issue date],DATEDIFF("dd",[Issue date],[Start date])/365 AS runningdays
FROM Database1..[Insurance Policies Working DB]
WHERE [Policy Number] LIKE '%1368529%'
The part 'DATEDIFF("dd",[Issue date],[Start date])' comes out as 364 if calculated on its own. However, then when it is divided by 365 it comes out as 0. How do I get it to show as a decimal instead of just rounding it down automatically? (Hope I've made sense)
Thanks in advance

A stored procedure has been executed either yesterday or today. I would like to find out which user and when they executed it. Is this possible without 3rd party transaction log interrogation tools?

What would be the best practice to follow to keep track of MS SQLserver changes... Stroed procs, tables, views, triggers, indexes, DTSand also jobs ect....I am not quite sure how Source safe works with sql server. Any otherway to do this... Even if its manual work, its okey.. I wouldappreciate if any of the DBA's let me know how they are facing thisissue....Thanks in advance...

2 servers: 1 production, 1 test.
While my application is running on the production server, I want to develop on the test server. After a few weeks, I want to update the application, and have to update the database structure on the production server also with the most recent one from the testserver, but without deleting the current data on the production server.
I create/modify all tables in SQL Server 2005 via Management Studio. The application is built in VS2008 Pro. I'm using SubVersion (SVN).
I can let Management Studio generate scripts for every change and store them manualy, but that's a little bit too much work. What I want is a sort off version control solution. A solution that a service running on the background tracks every change on a specific database on my test server, and stores them as T-SQL code in a repository. Then I can collect all those T-SQL scripts, and run them against the production server.
Is there some solution for that?
we have a simple table
Key, Name, Address, City, State, Zip ................ect
I would like to keep this table sorted by Name, theirfore I won't have to sort my results with every querry.
I think I need to add something to my insert to tell my table - "Hay take Jones", open up the prober place and stick him in the proper spot.
Ex: We have Appleby and Robertson in our table now. My insert would tell SQL Server to take Jones, figure our where he belongs (alpha), and stick him in, resulting in.
Appleby
Jones
Robertson
This way I wont have to as the querry to sort stuff every time I reference this table, this will save lots and lots of overhead. and help keep my clients happy with quick(er) response.
thanks in advance -arthur
I need to update a row but keep a lock on the table (so no one else can update it) while I do run some more code. In Oracle, it always locks whatever you update until you hit commit, but sql server works opposite. How do I tell it not to commit a statement, or how would I explicitly get a lock and then release it later?

View 3 Replies View RelatedHello everyone,
I have a winform application with C# front end and sql express 05 backend.
In this database i have a table that holds manufacturer provided pricing and the manufacturers we work with update pricing constantly.
We have one table called "manufacturerpricing" which we are constantly inserting and deleting pricing records to/from to keep manufacturer pricing up to date. We may insert and delete as many as 2,000,000 records per month into this table.
This works perfectly fine and we have no problems here at all.
But with that being said, I am worried about the size of the database growing out of control due to temporary space etc. The database just keeps getting bigger and bigger.
How do I run some maintenance to keep the database size under control.
I would like to run this automatically from the C# front end so if ther is a stored proc I can call or an C# assembly I can reference that would be ideal.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Hi,
I'd like to keep state between calls to a UDF (mainly for caching purposes). I can shove an object into the appdomain using SetData and read it using GetData, but that requires the assembly to be set to UNSAFE. I'm confident I can secure the DB and the assembly fairly well, but I like defense in depth, and if there's another way to save state between calls to a UDF, I would prefer those.
Is there another way to store state between calls to a UDF, without putting data into DB tables or using things that will require the assembly to have such a wide permission set?
Thanks,
Alex
This may be more of a data design question and not an ssis question, but figured folks here could have a good idea.....the organization I'm in has the business need of collecting data from outside organizations and tracking what data is bad and what data is good. When I say bad data I mean everything from things outside of range to absolute *** - characters in integer columns, integers in character columns, special characters, etc. The data comes in in the form of flat file so it's a free for all until it hits ssis & the db engine.
Eventually of course they work to get the data corrected at the source & resubmitted but in the meantime, they have the legitimate need of not only pushing the data into the database (dirty or not), but keeping all the bad stuff. I can't in good conscience make everything a varchar to catch everything - that would go against the database gods. IMO - I still must make an integer be an integer , characters are characters, etc. But what do I do with the junk? Any thoughts?
I want to create a page(using GridView) where it will detect changes made in the database and display it for Administrator observation. I've created a table name history for this purpose.
History
guid (uniqueidentifier)
dateCreated(datetime)
lastDateUpdated(datetime)
changesMade(varchar(50)) ---- eg; dropdownlist
oldValue(varchar(50)) ----- compaq
newValue(varchar(50)) -----dell
updateBy(varchar(10)) <------ username of registered user
comNo(int) = foreign key for Computer table
History data will insert data whenever a changes made. Could anyone advise and direct me how to do this function. I was thinking of using stored procedure to insert the data. Thanks in advance.
I have an application that has a SQL back end, and I want to be able to track who is accessing a record so that no one else can access it at the same time. I was going to do this with a table or application state, but how can I avoid keeping files locked when someone abandons a session? Any Ideas?

I have a stored procedure for which i need to track the changes.
I wanted to know which user has updated the stored procedure and what all changes are done to it.
I thought of getting these details from the transaction log, but looks like sql server 2000 doesnt have any log reader.

Hello,
I have a table which consists of 27,000 of records. Among these records, there is one record which
is a duplication of another record.
Is there any way to track this record from the same table by the SQL statement ?
I have been advised to use the following statement but it does not help:
Select count(*) As Duplicate, columnname from tablename group by columnname
Scrolling 27,000 lines of records with bare eyes is very painful.
Any help is appreciated.
Cheers
Hi all,
I have a data of applicants. Everyday we dump this data into SQL server. Now I need to generate reports everyday so that we can track how many records get updated everyday. Now the thing is that the applicants are in various stages. So my reports need to track the how many applicants changed from stage "abc" to "pqr" and how many changed from "pqr" to "xyz". Now it is not necessary that all the records change stages everyday.
thanks in advance,
Rohit
