Identity PK Column Based On Other PK...please Help
Apr 30, 2008
I have this table where there is tow primary keys ,one for Year and the other for DocNumber.
In this table the DocNumber takes a number based on each year,for example in year 2008 the DocNumber should start counting from 1 and increment by one for every record,when the year changes to 2009 the DocNumber should start again from 1 until and seed by one again.
Those columns are PKs because there must be one doc Number for each year and they can not be null .
Is there any simple way to approach this in Sql Server 2005 ,or do I have to work on trigger to do so...???
Any ideas will be really appreciated.

I need to add a column that has the datatype of integer with a seed and identity increment to a table that already exists and has data in it - and can't all NULLs. I have heard that this not possible if the table already exists.
I have downloaded the demo's of SQL Programmer and a couple of Embarcadero programs to see if that would help, but have had no succes to date.
Thanks for any help,
Alan

Hi!
I am designing a dimension table which will include a short name column based on the (full) name column. For example say Product dimension where I will have ProductName and ProductShortName. ProductShortName will be the first 6 characters of ProductName. I could populate ProductShortName using:
Substring in the select when I select from the original system, e.g. SUBSTR(PRODUCT_NAME, 1, 6) AS ProductShortName
Create a derived column in the SSIS flow which does the same thing
Create the ProductShortName column as a computed column which uses substring on ProductName
Create a trigger that populates ProductShortName based on ProductName when a row is inserted or updated
Create a named calculation in the table in the Analysis Services project's data source view
Create a named query in the Analysis Services project's data source view
I usually use 1, and 5 or 6 would only be used if I only will create reports against the cubes. 3 seems easiest to maintain, so I am thinking about using that one, but maybe it is slow for the data flow as I imagine it must be something like using 4, or when is the column "created" at runtime, i.e. when the table is queried?
Which approach(es) do or would you use? Pros and cons?
Thanks!

I have table of three column first column is an ID column. However at creation of the table i have not set this column to auto increment. Then i have copied 50 rows in another table to this table then set the ID column values to zero.
Now I have changed the ID column to auto increment seed=1 increment=1 but the problem is i couldn't figure out how to update this ID column with zero value set to each row with this auto increment values so the ID column would have values from 1-50. Is there a away to do this?

If A,C,E,G then "status" = "Active" else if B,D,F,H then "Status" = "Inactive". I like to do it using "Derived Column".

I'm working with a third-party database (SQL Server 2005) and the problem here is the following:
- There are a bunch of ETL processes that needs to insert rows on a table (let's call this table T) and at the same time, an ERP (owner of T) is up and running (reading, updating and inserting on T).
- The PK of T is an Integer.
Today all ETL processes uses (select max(ID) + 1 from T) to insert new rows, so just picture the scenario. It is a mess! Everyday they get duplicate key error when 2 or more concurrent processes are trying to insert a row (with the max) at the same time.
Considering that I can't change the PK, what is the best approach to solve this problem?
To sum up:
* I need to have processes in parallel inserting on T
* I can't change anything on T
* The PK is NOT an Identity

Hi all,
The requirement is to have a table say 'child_table', with an Identity column to refer another column from a table say 'Parent_table'..
i cannot implement this constraint, it throws the error when i execute the below Alter query,
ALTER TABLE child_table ADD CONSTRAINT fk_1_ct FOREIGN KEY (child_id)
REFERENCES parent_table (parent_id) ON DELETE CASCADE
the error thrown is :
Failed to execute alter table query: 'ALTER TABLE child_table ADD CONSTRAINT
fk_1_ct FOREIGN KEY (child_id) REFERENCES parent_table (parent_id) ON DELETE
CASCADE '. Message: java.sql.SQLException: Cascading foreign key 'fk_1_ct' cannot be
created where the referencing column 'child_table.child_id' is an identity column.
any workarounds for this ?

I am having issues getting this to work. I have the user login to a page to
put in a request for vacation. When they login, I have a label that isn't
visible that is equal to their User.Identity.Name.
I select the user from the employee table where the username = the label User
Identity Name and pull in the emp_id which is the primary key that identifies
the user.
I need to insert the request into the request table with the emp_id from the
select statement, without showing the em_id on the screen. I tried using a
hidden field and assigning the emp_id as the value, but it isn't working.
Not sure if this is the best way to do this. Really new to ASP.NET 2.0 so I
really appreciate any help.
Thank you!

What will be the right syntax using SQL SERVER 2000?
I am trying to solve the question in the link below:

Using MDS 2012: I have an entity "XYZ_Entity". In "XYZ_Entity" entity I have 2 domain based Columns "DealerGroup" and "Dealer".
While inserting information into "XYZ_Entity" entity user can select the required dealer group from domain base Dealer Group values. Now for selecting Dealer he wants the dealers to be filter based on selected dealer group and he can select from the filtered list. reason to do that is he don't want to go through thousands of dealers and select an incorrect one.
Is it possible, if yes then how?

I am trying to add a column to query based on the value of another column in the query.
I first tried creating a calculated field in SSRS 2008 with this statement:
=IIF(Fields!ChargeableFlag.Value=1,Fields!Negamt.Value,0)
The report runs but I get a "#ERROR" when I place the field on the report.
I next tried creating a new column with the SQL statement:
SELECT Project.ProjectCode AS PC, Project.StatusCode AS SC, Time.StandardHours AS Hours,
Time.StandardChargeAmt AS StdAmt, Time.TaskUID as UID,
Time.StandardChargeRate as Rate, ChargeableFlag, 'Bill' =
Case
When TaskRule.ChargeableFlag = 0 Then 'Non-Bill'
When TaskRule.ChargeableFlag = 1 Then 'Billable'
[Code] .....
This query, less the case statement for BLAmt creates the dataset for the SSRS. Adding the Case statement for the BLAmt produces the error: "Invalid column name 'Negamt'."

Hi.
I'm writing a web application with VS2005 andSQL Server 2005 express edition.
I have an SQL table:
Table name:
statistics
Columns:
stat_id
firm_name
stat_month
stat_year
view_count
follow_count
percentage
When a user clicks a button, an sql query is fired which increments the view_count value by one and calculates a new percentage value from this. The query to update the percentage value doesn't work, here's the query:
UPDATE [statistics]
SET percentage = follow_count / view_count * 100
WHERE (stat_id = 15)
This code worked fine with MySQL, but since migrating to MSSql it doesn't seem to work. The data type of the percentage column is: decimal(5, 2)
Any help would be appreciated.

Having an identity column in target table, how do I use SQL 7 DTS ?
In Import wizard, I chose 'ignore' in source, checked Enable Indenity Insert - DTS failed with a msg like - a column cannot have NULL...
In DTS package, had Fast load and Enable Indenity checked - no luck !
Unchecked Enable identity, do luck.
What would be the standard procs for this since this sounds like a very common
senario.
What I am expecting is to insert from source and SQL would take care identity column automatically.
Appreciate your help very much !

I have a table that has a field that will not accept null values. I was trying to create a new table with a new field that would accept null values. I would then drop the original table and rename the new table. The problem is my key field has the Identity column (Autonumber) turned on. This allows the recordID to be automatically generated. Is there anyway to bypass the Identity Column feature and still keep it there future records? I already tried the "with Nocheck Clause" but does not work.
