How To Create An Aggregated Field
Apr 11, 2006
I have the following fields in table A:
GL_ID|GL_Name_VC | Amount |Period_TI|Year_SI
===================================================
1000| Inventory| 8,000.00 | 01 | 2005
===================================================
1000| Inventory| -3,000.00 | 02 | 2005
===================================================
1000| Inventory| 5,000.00 | 02 | 2005
===================================================
the fields above have the following datatype:
Fields | Datatype
===================================
GL_ID | Integer
GL_Name_VC | Variable Character
Amount | Integer
Period_TI | TinyInteger
Year_SI | SmallInteger
The above database is running on Microsoft SQL Server 2000 and i would like to query
for a report that looks something as below:
GL_ID | GL_Name_VC |Op Bal|Period_Dr|Period_Cr|Period Bal|Closing Bal
======================================================================
1000 | Inventory |8,000 | 5,000 | -3,000 | 2,000 |10,000
The above report has an Op Bal column which is the sum of all amount in Period 01 in
Year 2005 carried forward as opening balance in Period 02, Period_Dr Column would contain
all positive amount in Period 02 & Period_Cr Column would contain all negative amount
in Period 02. Period Bal is the summation of both Period_Dr & Period_Cr and Closing Bal
column is the summation of Op Bal + Period Bal.
Guys, hope someone out there can help me with the sql command for the above report?

I am trying to populate a field in a SQL table based on the valuesreturned from using substring on a text field.Example:Field Name = RecNumField Value = 024071023The 7th and 8th character of this number is the year. I am able toget those digits by saying substring(recnum,7,2) and I get '02'. Nowwhat I need to do is determine if this is >= 50 then concatenate a'19' to the front of it or if it is less that '50' concatenate a '20'.This particular example should return '2002'. Then I want to take theresult of this and populate a field called TaxYear.Any help would be greatly apprecaietd.Mark

Been pulling my hair out with this one for some time now ... hope someone out there can help :)
I have a database view which is an aggregated view of a number of tables. Trouble is I need to create what would effectively be a primary key for the view.
Can anyone suggest a sound way of doing this other than moving to Oracle :)

Hi,
the query below (from Adventure Works) displays the sales amount for three products and a custom member "aggregation" which is the aggregate of these three products, and it cross joins with the attribute "colour".
Code Snippet
with member [Product].[Product Categories].[Subcategory].&[31].[aggregation] as 'AGGREGATE({ [Product].[Product Categories].[Product].&[214], [Product].[Product Categories].[Product].&[215], [Product].[Product Categories].[Product].&[220] })'
SELECT { [Date].[Calendar].[All Periods] } ON COLUMNS ,
NON EMPTY { { { [Product].[Product Categories].[Product].&[214], [Product].[Product Categories].[Product].&[215], [Product].[Product Categories].[Product].&[220],[Product].[Product Categories].[Subcategory].&[31].[aggregation] } * { [Product].[Color].[All Products].CHILDREN } } } ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works]
WHERE ( [Measures].[Reseller Sales Amount] )
Can someone please explain me why I'm getting this result:
All Periods
Sport-100 Helmet, Red
Red
39328.1586
Sport-100 Helmet, Black
Black
12098.0788
Sport-100 Helmet, Blue
Blue
13331.5816
aggregation
Black
64757.819
aggregation
Blue
64757.819
aggregation
Red
64757.819 (note that 64757.819 is the total of the three products)
instead of something like this:
All Periods
Sport-100 Helmet, Red
Red
39328.1586
Sport-100 Helmet, Black
Black
12098.0788
Sport-100 Helmet, Blue
Blue
13331.5816
aggregation
Black
12098.0788
aggregation
Blue
13331.5816
aggregation
Red
39328.1586
and also if anyone knows of a possible way of getting the second type of result?
please note that if I create a custom member that aggregates members of any other level of the Product Category hierarchy, the problem doesn't exist (see code and results below)
Code Snippet
WITH MEMBER [Product].[Product Categories].[Category].&[4].[Aggregation] as
'AGGREGATE({ [Product].[Product Categories].[Subcategory].&[31],
[Product].[Product Categories].[Subcategory].&[32] })'
SELECT { [Date].[Calendar].DEFAULTMEMBER } ON COLUMNS ,
NON EMPTY { { { [Product].[Product Categories].[Subcategory].&[31],
[Product].[Product Categories].[Subcategory].&[32],
[Product].[Product Categories].[Category].&[4].[Aggregation]} * { [Product].[Color].[All Products].CHILDREN } } } ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works]
WHERE ( [Measures].[Reseller Sales Amount] )
All Periods

I'd like to have all distinct recordIDs with relevant text associated with them. Each record has 3 text boxes in different languages. Each text in different language is defined by an AttributeDefinitionID. This is my query:
Select a.entryID, g.GroupName, c.CategoryName as ExperienceType,
e.AttributeValue as EnglishWording,
e1.AttributeValue as GermanWording,
e2.AttributeValue as RussianWording,
From Entry as a
inner join entrycategory as b on b.entryid = a.entryid
[Code] ....
but in the results I get additional rows for each record even if the record doesnt have all three text boxes populated and there is only EnglishText for example.
EntryID GrouPName EnglishWording GermanWording RussianWording
1586 Red abc NULL NULL
1586 Red NULL NULL NULL
3566 Yellow NULL Hallo Welt NULL
3566 Yellow NULL NULL NULL
3566 Yellow Hello world NULL NULL
3566 Yellow Hello world Hallo Welt NULL
1586 should only return the first line with English wording.
3566 should return the last line that shows both English and German wording populated

Hello,In my table, I have two columns - ForecastSales and ActualSales. I needto write a query that returns me just one aggregate value (one row andone column). If sum(ActualSales - ForecastSales) is negative, I need toreturn "red." Otherwise, I need to return green.I looked at CASE statement. However, I could not figure out anefficient way to build this query. I would appreciate your help.Thank you in advance for your help.Pradeep

Hi,
I have a question about how to best make a comparison of two aggregated SELECT€™s. I'm using SQL Server 2005 on a Windows XP machine.
I€™m doing a comparison between donor/gift information from one table and donor/gift information from another table. I have a difference of 7 records/gifts between the two tables. For whatever reason one table is supposedly Header level data and the other is Line level data and they are supposed to have the same number of records/gifts (not an issue here).
The aggregated SELECT€™s, which will show the donor and the number of gifts each made, are listed below:
SELECT
[Account Number]
,count(*) as [Count]
FROM
Zk_HeaderMulti
GROUP BY
[Account Number]
--
SELECT
[Account Number]
,count(*) as [Count]
FROM
Zk_LineMulti
GROUP BY
[Account Number]
Is there a more efficient way to do this than the below listed method in which I use temp tables, join them and find the donor(s) with differing number of gifts between the header table and the line table?
=================================================
SELECT
[Account Number] as Line_Donor
,count(*) as LineGift_Num
INTO
#Line
FROM
Zk_LineMulti
GROUP BY
[Account Number]
--
SELECT
[Account Number] as Head_Donor
,count(*) as HeadGift_Num
INTO
#Header
FROM
Zk_HeaderMulti
GROUP BY
[Account Number]
--
SELECT
Line_Donor
,LineGift_Num
,Head_Donor
,HeadGift_Num
FROM
#Line A
JOIN
#Header Z
ON a.Line_Donor=z.Head_Donor
WHERE
LineGift_Num<>HeadGift_Num
==================================================
I thought I might be able to try and do it in a single query that doesn€™t require two temp tables, but took the easy way out. Any suggestions?

How to get
Code Block
a record value instead of aggregated value with GROUP BY?
Assume that I have a PRODUCT_COMMENT table defined as below. It logs
the multiple comments for products. A product may have multiple
comments logged at different time.
Code Block
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[PRODUCT_COMMENT](
[COMMENT_ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[PRODUCT_ID] [int] NOT NULL,
[COMMENT] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
[UPDATED_ON] [datetime] NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_PRODUCT_COMMENT] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[COMMENT_ID] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY
= OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[PRODUCT_COMMENT] WITH CHECK ADD CONSTRAINT
[FK_PRODUCT_COMMENT_PRODUCT] FOREIGN KEY([PRODUCT_ID])
REFERENCES [dbo].[PRODUCT] ([PRODUCT_ID])
GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[PRODUCT_COMMENT] CHECK CONSTRAINT
[FK_PRODUCT_COMMENT_PRODUCT]
I would like to use the following SQL statement to get the latest
comments for all products.
Code Block
SELECT PRODUCT_ID, COMMENT, UPDATED_ON
FROM PRODUCT_COMMENT
GROUP BY PRODUCT_ID
HAVING UPDATED_ON = MAX(UPDATED_ON)
But this leads to the following error:
Code Block
Column 'PRODUCT_COMMENT.UPDATED_ON' is invalid in the HAVING clause
because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the
GROUP BY clause.
Is there a way to do that?
Thanks!

Hello All:
I am not sure if I wrote the question's title appropriatly or not.....but anyways I wud try to explain the problem.
I am facing a problem solving the following task in MS Access (I believe it can surely be solved in access or SQL server).I am posting a sample table format here for reference and also postin the expected result table there-after.
The problem goes like this.(Read Carefully)
I have a table which contains a payment history with one row per account (each account number is unique) and related payment history for each account.
Sample Table:
AcctNo Dt1 P1 Dt2 P2 Dt3 P3 Dt4 P4 .........
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
101 | 11/07/2002 | 10.00 | 11/07/2002 | 20.00 | 01/17/2003 | 120.00 | 01/25/2003 | 20.00

where Dt is date and P1/2/3/... is payment.There cud be 1 or more than 1 payments in a particular month as shown.
The original file has more than 200 columns for the payment i.e till Dt200,P200
I need to see aggregated monthly payment history for all accounts. i.e. a table for all accounts with related payments for each month (its OK if a day vary in particular month...consolidation shud be monthly) starting from the earliest to the latest possible.
Result:-
Acct Month Pay Month Pay ...........
----------------------------------------------------
101 | 11/2002 | 30.00 | 01/2003 | 140.00 ...........
201 | 10/2003 | 55.00 | 03/2004 | 205.00 ...........

Are Primary Key fields automatically indexed, or do you have to create a seperate index for a PK in order for it to be indexed? I'm using SQL Server 2005.

I have a table where the key is an autonumber. I also have a field which holds the reference of a room eg 0BM1. It is nvarchar. Is there a way I can set this field to duplicates = No, so that my user cannot enter the same room reference more than once. Or do I have to do this check in my asp.net code ?

Hi -
I know my way around VS but I am just exploring "advanced" SQL Server 2005 and have run into a challenge which I think a trigger could solve, but I am not sure and also don't know how to set that up. So any help or links to tutorials are highly appreciated.
Here is the challenge: I have a table with a number of fields, among them RequestID (bigint) and Booktime (datetime). What I would like to happen is whenever someone writes a value different from NULL into RequestID, Booktime gets set to the current timestamp. When RequestID gets set to NULL, Booktime gets set to NULL.
Is there a way to do this with a trigger (or an otherwise elegant way)?
Thanks in advance for ANY help or ideas.

I am between the "newbie" and "intermediate" stages of writing SQL code and I am wondering if there is a way to capture multiple results into one field so I can basically create a "set" for a unique identifier. Here is few result samples I receive from this code I am using now.
ReqNo ProcID
7102005 1409
7102005 1796
7139003 1411
7139003 6097
7261030 1409
7261030 1796
7268303 3998
7268303 4000
I would like to create a single row for each "ReqNo" and have a field that will an array of the "ProcID" results I receive. In other words, for the first "ReqNo" 7102005, can I create a field that will combine the 1409, 1796 into one field? I am trying to capture an array of integers used for that "ReqNo" so I can use that as a unique identifier in a join for another table.
So, ideally my result would be:
ReqNo ProcSet
7102005 1409, 1796
7139003 1411, 6097
7261030 1409, 1796
7268303 3998, 4000
Is this possible?

I have a table with field name a, b, and c. I want the information in those fields to be populated in a seperate field, d.
So instead of:
a
122
b
joe
c
st
I would have:
d

I am a C# developer who was forced to use a DataSet with Infragistics grid instead of the class object I was using as a data source, so that I can implement an AddNew functionality directly in the grid.
In code I would simply add a read only property to do this, and it was much simpler, but if someone could point in the right direction as to can a view do what I want.
The field I want to create is called "Info" short for HasInfo.
Info has 3 values (from an enumeration) NoInfo = 0; HasResume = 1; HasHomeInfo = 2
The business logic for this is if we have a resume, I show a resume icon in the grid, if we do not have a resume, if we have home phone # or mobil # then an icon of phones are shown in the grid.
To find out if a contact has a resume the SQL is going to be something like if exists (select ContactResumeID from ContactResume Where ContactResume.ContactID = Contact.ContactID) then 1; and if that is not true; check if Contact.HomePhone is Not Null Or Empty or Contact.WorkPhone is not null or empty then 2 else 0
I can do this in C# blindfolded, but in SQL I am fish out of water for compound if statements.
The SQL for this view is shown below (creating using SQL Server Gui Selector which I think is real cool).
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
ALTER VIEW [dbo].[Employees]
AS
SELECT dbo.Company.CompanyID,
dbo.Company.Name AS CompanyName,
dbo.Contact.FirstName,
dbo.Contact.LastName,
dbo.Position.Title,
dbo.Department.DepartmentName,
dbo.ContactPosition.WorkPhone,
dbo.ContactPosition.Extension,
dbo.Contact.ContactID,
dbo.ContactPosition.ContactPositionID,
dbo.Department.DepartmentID,
dbo.Position.PositionID
FROM dbo.ContactPosition INNER JOIN dbo.Contact
ON dbo.ContactPosition.ContactID = dbo.Contact.ContactID INNER JOIN dbo.Position
ON dbo.ContactPosition.PositionID = dbo.Position.PositionID INNER JOIN dbo.Department
ON dbo.Position.DepartmentID = dbo.Department.DepartmentID INNER JOIN dbo.Company
ON dbo.Position.CompanyID = dbo.Company.CompanyID

Right now I get this value by doing the following:
Create data set:
Select top 75 percent <field>

Then I create the following calculated field
Avg(Fields!<field>.value,"<data_set_name>")
But I wanted to be able to create a calculated field that gives me the avg 75 percentile without creating a separate data set to get the top 75 percent Value.
Is it possible?

I am a student, and I am so confused by SQL code that calculates incomes of my contract in a year or each month of year.
I have 3 tables:
lodgings_Contract:
id_contract indentity primary,
id_person int,
id_room varchar(4),
day_begin datetime,
day_end datetime,
day_register datetime
money_per_month money
electric:
id_electric indentity primary key,

Water:
id_Water indentity primary key,
id_room varchar(4),
number_first int,
number_last int,
Sum_Number int,
money_water money,
status bit
Now what I want to do are statistics on how much money I got in a year or month. Here is my code to calculate incomes of year.
Select Year(day_register) as 'Year'
, Sum(money_per_month * month(day_end-day_register)) + sum(b.money_electric+c.money_water) as 'Incomes'
From lodgings_Contract a
, electric b
, Water c
Where a.id_room = b.id_room
And a.id_room = c.id_room
And b.status = 1
And c.status = 1

Insert Into tocreateviewfrom Values (foxfire.dbo.abcd), (foxfire.dbo.abcde), (foxfire.dbo.abcdf), (foxfire.dbo.abcdg), (foxfire.dbo.abcde), (foxfire.dbo.abcdl)
--Then somehow iterate each value in the field dbname to create a view something like
Create View viewcreatedfromtable As
Select * from foxfire.dbo.abcd
Union All
Select * from foxfire.dbo.abcde
[Code] ....
I tried this, but it is only printing the last result returned not the entire result set
Code:
Declare @database varchar(max), @sql varchar(max)
Declare c1 Cursor For
Select Program
from tocreateviewfrom
Open c1
[Code] .....

I have two tables: TestA and TestB. Both tables have 3 fields: ID,Name, and RunDate. I need to create a query which will join the twotables first on Name but then I need to match up the RunDates eventhough the RunDates won't be the same.CREATE TABLE TestA (ID INT IDENTITY, Name VARCHAR(255), RunDateDATETIME)CREATE TABLE TestB (ID INT IDENTITY, Name VARCHAR(255), RunDateDATETIME)INSERT INTO TestA VALUES ('Account 1', '9/1/2004 12:00PM')INSERT INTO TestB VALUES ('Account 1', '9/1/2004 12:15PM')INSERT INTO TestA VALUES ('Account 1', '9/2/2004 1:00PM')INSERT INTO TestB VALUES ('Account 1', '9/2/2004 1:15PM')INSERT INTO TestA VALUES ('Account 1', '9/3/2004 3:00PM')INSERT INTO TestA VALUES ('Account 2', '9/5/2004 4:00PM')INSERT INTO TestB VALUES ('Account 2', '9/5/2004 4:15PM')Here's a common scenario:User updates TestA data for Account 1 on 9/1/2004 at 12:00pm. Thenthe user updates TestB data for Account 1, 15 minutes later. I wantthese two records to match. The user must always update TestA databefore they update TestB data. Therefore, there might be more rows inTestA then in TestBHere's what the results should look like for the above data.Name TestA Date TestB Date---- ---------- ----------Account 1 9/1/2004 12:00pm 9/1/2004 12:15PMAccount 1 9/2/2004 1:00pm 9/2/2004 1:15PMAccount 1 9/3/2004 3:00pm (NULL)Account 2 9/5/2004 4:00pm 9/5/2004 4:15PMAny help would be much appreciated!!!!

I'm very new to SQL server and can use some help. MyTable has ColumnA, which contains strings composed of 1 to 4 numeric characters (0 thru 9) followed by alphabetic characters. For example, "53ASDF". In my query, I need to create ColumnB, which takes the numeric prefix from ColumnA's string and prepends it with zeros, if necessary, to create a string of exactly 4 numeric characters. For example, I could get the following result:
ColA ColB
"6abc" "0006"
"457def" "0457"
"7232hij" "7232"
I have implemented a temporary solution using a CASE statement:
SELECT ColA, ColB =
CASE
WHEN ISNUMERIC(LEFT(ColA, 4)) = 1 THEN (LEFT(ColA, 4))
WHEN ISNUMERIC(LEFT(ColA, 3)) = 1 THEN '0' + (LEFT(ColA, 3))
WHEN ISNUMERIC(LEFT(ColA, 2)) = 1 THEN '00' + (LEFT(ColA, 2))
WHEN ISNUMERIC(LEFT(ColA, 1)) = 1 THEN '000' + (LEFT(ColA, 1))
ELSE ''
END
FROM MyTable
Because of additional complexities, I need to implement the solution with a loop instead of a CASE statement. Can someone please describe such a solution?
I'm very confused about how variables work in SQL Server, but made an attempt to implement a solution. Hopefully, someone can make corrections and describe how to use it with a SELECT statement. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions. This is what I started with:
DECLARE @ColBstring char(4)
DECLARE @num int
SET @ColBstring = ''
SET num = 1;
-- Get the numeric prefix from ColumnA's string
WHILE(isnumeric(substring(colA, 1, num)) = 1)
@ColBstring = (substring(colA, 1, num)
num = num + 1
-- Prepend the ColumnB string with zeros
WHILE(LEN(@ColBstring) < 4)
@ColBstring = '0' + @ColBstring
Thanks for any help,
Mike

Hello Friends,
I am creating a report in which I want to create group column using two field value. Is it possible to do so? We have a requirement in which we are fetching data from two different hierarchy.
A B C D E F G H I J K
L 1 2 3....................4 5
M .............................
N .........................
O .......................
P
The report matrix look like the above one. The elements A,B,C are coming from one hierarchy and D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K are coming from other hierarchy. But i have created one data set to fetch the values for the report. But while creating the column group I am getting both two diff fields so I am not able to use it in single Column group and I want to use only one column group.
Can anybody help me out to solve this issue?
