I'm Trying To Get The Last Activity Date From W/in A Table Where There Are Multiple Rows Per Employee
Apr 22, 2008
Hi, I have been struggling trying to design a query that will alow be to select the most recent date in a table
and I'm obviously not having much luck
This is basically the table layout, note each employee can have multiple rows with different dates
Employee_ID
Last_Name
First_Name
Evaluation_Date
Evaluation_Score

What I'd like to do would be to write some thing that would return the following, just the last date of the evaluation & whatever relevant data is in the table
Employee_ID
Last_Name
First_Name
Evaluation_Date
Evaluation_Score

I've looked at select distinct and the date operatives with out any success.
I'm working on a project where I need to retrieve employees data and then combine the data into single row per employee.
Sample Data:
WITH SampleData (PERSON, [DATA], [FIELD]) AS ( SELECT 1234,'04/02/2014','Date' UNION ALL SELECT 1234,'123','Department' UNION ALL SELECT 1234,80.0,'Rate' ) SELECT * FROM SampleData;
The results from the above are as follows:
PERSONDATA FIELD 123404/02/2014Date 1234123 Department 123480.0 Rate
The desired results would be:
PERSONDate Department Rate 123404/02/2014 123 80.0
I have a table in which each record has a initial date and a final date. I would like to create I query that gives me one row for each month between the initial date and the final date. It would be something like this:
I would like to do that, because these dates correspond to the time in which the products are in possession of sellers, so I would to use this resulting query to generate a pivot chart in Excel to illustrate the value of the goods that are with our sellers in each month.
Is it possible to do it? I think I could do that direct in VBA, but I think that maybe it would be faster if I could do it directly in SQL.
By the way, I am using MS SQL Server and SQL Server Manegement Studio 2012.
I'm writing a view to check record counts in a table that has numerous datasets and therefore various "Activity Dates". Is it possible as part of the SQL statement to have a CASE statement for example so that it can identify the field to use as the activity date?
The field to use is being identified using a seperate table so at the moment I have CASE WHEN FieldToUse = '2' THEN MapCol ELSE '[Activity_Date]' END, where FieldToUse = '2' identifies the date field to use and the MapCol data is the field name to be used as the activity date.
So my data column [EODPosting].[MatchDate] is defined as a DATE column. I am trying to SELECT from my table where [EODPosting].[MatchDate] is today's date.
Is this not working because GETDATE() is like a timestamp format? How can I get this to work to return those rows where [EODPosting].[MatchDate] is equal to today's date?
Can someone please help with a query I have? Basically I want to return all rows in a table that have multiple date entries that are different. For example:
This security 1636 has two entries in the DB with different dates. They are lots of securities with multiple entries with the same date but I need a list of the ones with different dates. Any ideas please?

Hi, I have 1 table with 5 rows. One of the rows has dateTime values. I want to know how many rows there are with a value in that column < today AND how many rows there are with a value in that column > today. I'm not sure how to do this.
SELECT Count(*) WHERE dateColumn <= today AND dateColumn > today gives me everything. I like to end up with a column containing the count of rows <= today and a column with rows where date > today.
Is this possible in SQL or do I have to retrieve all rows and then loop over the resultset and check each row?
Question: How to determine if a date value was between one of the date periods that appear in multiple rows?
Background: We have a table of "license valid" periods, wherein each license can have one or more rows. (As you know, a driver's license can be started, expired, renewed, suspended, reinstated, revoked, etc.) Instead of of having a license activity table--from which valid license periods could be extrapolated--we store just the periods for which a license was valid.
My task is to take a list of licenses and specific dates and determine if each license was valid as of that date, returning either true or false. What is the best way to accomplish this?
DECLARE @ValidityInQuestion TABLE ( LicenseID int , DateValidityInQuestion date);
DECLARE @LicenseValidPeriods TABLE ( LicenseID int , BeginDate date , EndDate date);
[Code] ...
How then do I query both tables in order to get the same result that results from the following query?
SELECT 12345 AS LicenseID , '2015-01-15' AS DateValidityInQuestion , 1 AS LicenseActive UNION SELECT 67890 , '2015-02-04' , 0;
I assume I need to join on the LicenseID columns, but my understanding stops there.
Hello Everyone, I am bit confused. I am using vwd2005 express,c# and sql express. I have a webform that registers new employee(title,name,age,address,phone,email) and inserts those data into the sqldatabase. The problem is there might exists 'N' number or email ids and phone nos for a single user. for eg: user A might have 3 email address where has user B might have 5 email address. so in that case its not appropriate to create 5 textboxes in the webform and create 5 column like email1,email2,email3,email4,email5 in the database for both users.. i hope your getting the point. I tried to create a separate table for emails and phone. But i am new to relational database. So if i need to use Relational database then could anyone help me here to :- 1.create a table structure here.(what would be the structure of tbl_employee, tbl_email and tbl_phone) 2.How to write insert query if i am using RD here? plz help explaining the concept with a simple running example. Thanks in advance. Jack.

I am trying to insert multiple rows into a table getting data from a web form.
I have 2 fields being passed from a web form to the below stored procedure @FormBidlistID Sample Data --> 500 @CheckBoxListContractors Sample Data --> 124,125,145,154,156,
The below DELETE function is working great. However for some reason or another the INSERT INTO sql command is not putting seperating the string and adding rows to the database? I am not sure where the error is occuring.
In the end I need the data to go into the database columns like so
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.UpdateBidlistContractors @FormBidlistID int, @CheckBoxListContractors varchar(3999) AS DELETE FROM BidlistContractors WHERE BidlistID = @FormBidlistID DECLARE @ContractorID nvarchar(10) DECLARE @BidlistID nvarchar(10) DECLARE @startPosition int DECLARE @commaPosition int SET @startPosition =1 SET @commaPosition = 0 WHILE (@startPosition < LEN(@ContractorID)) BEGIN SET @commaPosition = CHARINDEX(' , ' , @ContractorID, @startPosition) SET @ContractorID= SUBSTRING(@ContractorID, @startPosition, @commaPosition - @startPosition) INSERT INTO BidlistContractors (BidlistID, ContractorID) VALUES (@BidlistID, @ContractorID) SET @startPosition = @startPosition + LEN(@ContractorID) + 1 END GO
Where am I going wrong? Thank you in advance for any help. :-)

Is it possible to insert multiple rows in a table using one INSERT statment. If yes, how can I do that ? I tried doing this using the substitution method.
Using Substitution Method - This is how,I proceeded.
In our organization there is a call center where operators entry call details and custormer qruery in a table using front end application. For these queries there are multiple no of executive who will reply the query using a front end application. using the application the exectives retrive specific no of records from call center table(if there are unreplied call exists) and reply them. When a excutive retrives specfic no of rows, i want to update a flag in that rows, so that others do not get them.
I use the following procedure which is creating dead lock when multiple users execute it simultaneously
create procedure get_from_maintab @cnt int as declare @slno int,@curcnt int select @curcnt=1 set rowcount 1 while @curcnt<=@cnt begin begin tran select @slno=serial_no from maintab where getflag='' if @@rowcount=0 begin rollback return end update maintab set getflag='Y' where serial_no=@slno and getflag='' if @@rowcount = 0 begin rollback return end insert into detab select fld1,fld2,fld3 from maintab where serial_no=@slno if @@rowcount = 0 begin rollback return end commit tran select @curcnt=@curcnt+1 end set rowcount 0 return
So to the above table I have added a new field/column named "ProdLongDescr(varchar, Null)"
So, I need to populate this newly added column with specific values for each row depending on "ProductCode" which is different forevery row. The problem is that I have 25 rows.So instead of Writing 25 individual update scripts, is there a way in which single query will do the same job instead of writing one update query for each row ?. If so can some one guide me how to achieve that OR point to me a good resource.
Below are a couple of Individual update scripts I Wrote. "ProductCode" is different for all 25 rows.
Update tblValAdPackageElement SET ProdLongDescr = 'Slideshows' WHERE ProductCode = 'SLID' And szElementDescr='Slideshow' if @@error <> 0 begin goto ErrPos end
Update tblValAdPackageElement SET ProdLongDescr = 'CategorySlideshows' WHERE ProductCode = 'SLDC' And szElementDescr='CategorySlideshow' if @@error <> 0 begin goto ErrPos end

I have an Employee table that has EmployeeID (PK) SupervisorID (which is really just another EmployeeID) ..random junk...
Now that part makes sense, everyone gets one and only one boss.
Their boss can change, and therefore the SupervisorID would be updated.
Now I have an EmployeeEvals table that has quarterly evaluation data.
I want to relate these two tables.
Eval table has EvalID (PK) ReviewedEmployeeID (the one being evaluated) SupervisorID (the one doing the evaluation)
Now I need to link this back to the employee table (at least I think I do).
So I would want to relate it by the ReviewedEmployeeID going back to EmployeeID in the employee table and I also want the SupervisorID to do the same...
But of course that won't work because that would seem to indicate that a single record on the Employees table (say EmployeeID 55) should have a matching (or could) record in the Eval table that would look like EvalID: 12345 ReviewedEmployeeID: 55 SupervisorID: 55
which of course wouldn't happen as an employee wouldn't evaluate themself.
How do I handle the relationships for this properly?
Do I just not link the SupervisorID back to anything?
I am trying to figure out if what i am attempting to do is possible and whether or not my approach is wrong to begin with.
I am trying to build a custom report for our accounting system which is Traverse from Open systems. This is what i have done in the stored procedure thus far

return
GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF GO SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO
My problems begin where i want to start updating all of the Qty's of the QtySold field. I have managed to get it to write the same sum in every field but i cannot figure out how to update each row based on the sum of the qty found for that item in the tblArHistDetails table, trouble is too that there is no reference to the custId in that table either. The custId resides in tblArHistHeader and is linked to the details table via the TransId column. So really i need to update many rows based on criteria from 2 other tables.
Can anyone please help? I dont have a clue how to make this work, and most of what i have learned about sql thus far has been from opening other stored procs etc in the accounting system and just reading to see how the developers have done things.
Hi,I'm am looking for a little help. I need to create a SQL view whichjoins a few tables, and I need to return an average for a particularcolumn where a second duplicate ID exists...Heres an example of how the results could be returned...ID | Name | Order No. | Value---+------+-----------+---------5 | test | 1234 | 35 | test2| 1234 | 45 | test3| 1234 | 35 | void | 1235 | 55 | void2| 1235 | 65 | void3| 1235 | 55 | void4| 1235 | 7ID is my main join which joins the tablesName is a unique nameOrder No is the same for the different names, I only need to return onerow with this order no, and the first name (the rest are irrelevant)Value is the field which I wish to return as an average of all 3, 4 orhowever many rows is returned and share the same order no. This iswhere I get totally lost as I am pretty new to SQL. Can anyone provideany help on how I would go about limiting this query to the uniqueorder no's and returning the average of the value field, and I can takeit from there with my own tables.Thanks for your helpstr8
Hello all,my first post here...hope it goes well. I'm currently working onstored procedure where I translated some reporting language into T-SQLThe logic:I have a group of tables containing important values for calculation.I run various sum calculations on various fields in order to retrievecost calculations ...etc.1) There is a select statement which gathers all the "records" whichneed calculations.ex: select distinct Office from Offices where OfficeDesignation ='WE' or OfficeDesignation = 'BE...etc.As a result I get a list of lets say 5 offices which need to becalculated!2) A calculation select statement is then run on a loop for each ofthe returned 5 offices (@OfficeName cursor used here!) found above.Anexample can be like this(* note that @WriteOff is a variable storing the result):"select @WriteOff = sum(linecost * (-1))From Invtrans , InventoryWhere ( transtype in ('blah', 'blah' , 'blah' ) )and ( storeloc = @OfficeName )and ( Invtrans.linecost <= 0 )and ( Inventory.location = Invtrans.storeloc )and ( Inventory.itemnum = Invtrans.itemnum )"...etcThis sample statement returns a value and is passed to the variable@WriteOff (for each of the 5 offices mentioned in step 1). This is donearound 9 times for each loop! (9 calculations)3) At the end of each loop (or each office), we do an insert statementto a table in the database.
To anyone that is able to help....What I am trying to do is this. I have two tables (Orders, andOrderDetails), and my question is on the order details. I would liketo set up a stored procedure that essentially inserts in the orderstable the mail order, and then insert multiple orderdetails within thesame transaction. I also need to do this via SQL 2000. Right now ihave "x" amount of variables for all columns in my orders tables, andall Columns in my Order Details table. I.e. @OColumn1, @OColumn2,@OColumn3, @ODColumn1, @ODColumn2, etc... I would like to create astored procedure to insert into Orders, and have that call anotherstored procedure to insert all the Order details associated with thatorder. The only way I can think of doing it is for the program to passme a string of data per column for order details, and parse the stringvia T-SQL. I would like to get away from the String format, and gowith something else. If possible I would like the application tosubmit a single value per variable multiple times. If I do it this waythough it will be running the entire SP again, and again. Anysuggestions on the best way to solve this would be greatlyappreciated. If anyone can come up with a better way feel free. Myonly requirement is that it be done in SQL.Thank you
