I'm trying to set up a statement that gives me a field called 'BINNO' if the payor = Commercial. But, I have a few customers that don't have Commercial. They have a Payor of Grant or Part D. How would I set up a statement that looks for Commerical 1st...then Grant or Part D. I started with this
case when inscomp.payor = 'COMMERCIAL' then INSCOMP.BINNO
I am trying to classify a customer's order method preference based on their history. My source table has every order, order method, date, etc.
The logic is:
If only one order method, that is their preference>1 order method, the majority is their preferenceif 50/50 split, the order method with the mose recent order is the preference
I then created a query to group by the customer, order method, and max(date):
[URL]
I am having trouble though, creating a query that applies the above logic and outputs this:[URL]
The query below at the bottom works, but when I try to add the line below (a third line/argument in the CASE statement) then I get an error. It is not possible to have a table name and a DESC (sort order) in the same CASE line/argument. Are there other ways to accomplish this, because I would like to sort with both "h.ObjectType" and "h.ObjectType DESC"? WHEN @SortBy = 2 THEN h.ObjectType DESC SELECT weight, ObjectText.ObjectId, ObjectText.ObjectType, ObjectText.Title, ObjectText.ShortText FROM @hits h INNER JOIN ObjectText ON h.id = ObjectText.ObjectId AND h.ObjectType = ObjectText.ObjectType WHERE ObjectText.LanguageCode = @LanguageCode ORDER BY CASE WHEN @SortBy = 0 THEN weight WHEN @SortBy = 1 THEN h.ObjectType END DESCRegards, Sigurd

I have been trying to get the following Selects to work using a case expression in the order by section.
I know I can easily separate out the two statements but I want to do a select using the case statement below ;
however, I keep getting error 16 --"Order by items must appear in the select list if the statement contains a union.
If remove the case statement and put order by "internalID desc" I receive no errors. Moreover, when I take out the union statement and execute the two select statements with each including the case expression it runs as planned.
Can anyone tell what the problem is here? I have combed the web looking for an answer, but it seems that the statement is valid.
Thanks

i was tasked to created an UPDATE statement for 6 tables , i would like to update 4 columns within the 6 tables , they all contains the same column names. the table gets its information from the source table, however the data that is transferd to the 6 tables are sometimes incorrect , i need to write a UPDATE statement that will automatically correct the data. the Update statement should also contact a where clause
the columns are [No] , [Salesperson Code], [Country Code] and [Country Name]
i was thinking of doing
Update [tablename]
SET [No] =
CASE
WHEN [No] ='AF01' THEN 'Country Code' = 'ZA7' AND 'Country Name' = 'South Africa'
ELSE 'Null'
END
What is the best way to script this

I have successfully built a messaging system into my application, I now in the process of displaying the messages in the UI.
The following are how my tables are constructed.
CREATE TABLE [MailBox].[Message](
[Id] [bigint] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[SenderId] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[Message] [nvarchar](max) NOT NULL,
[SentDate] [datetime] NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_MailBox.Message] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
[Code] .....
Now I haven't set the foreign key on the MessageReceipient table yet. When someone sends me an email I insert a record into [MailBox].[Message] and output the insert id into MessageReceipient along with the ReceipientId this is working as expected, when I then click on my inbox I call the following stored procedure:
Select p.Username, count(mr.RecipientId) [TotalMessages],
CASE
WHEN mr.ReadDate is null then 1 -- New message
WHEN mr.ReadDate is not null then 0 -- Message has been read
END AS NewMessage
FROM [User].[User_Profile] p
JOIN [MailBox].[Message] m on p.Id = m.SenderId
JOIN [MailBox].[MessageRecipient] mr on m.Id = mr.MessageId
GROUP BY p.Username, mr.RecipientId, mr.ReadDate
This will give me the person who has emailed me, the total amount of messages and if the message is new or its been read, I do this by checking the ReadDate column as shown in the case statement (but this gives me duplicates, which is not what I want). Lets say user1 emails me 5 times so when I call this proc I will have the same user displayed to me 5 times, what I'm trying to achieve with the proc is it will show User1 as the following:
User1 5 Messages 1 or 0 New Messages
I can get it to display as follow when I remove the case statement
User1 5 Messages
but as soon as I add the case statement back in then I get 5 rows.
How can I change this proc in such a way that it will display the data as follows;
User1 5 Messages 1 or 0 New Messages
New Messages is dependent on ReadDate if its null then we have a new message, otherwise its been read.
I'm trying to create a case statement that if a field = a certain code, I'd like to take another field * 0.9. But, I'm getting a Null value for the answer..here is the statement:,case when parts.ndc = '50242-0138-01' then labels.BAGSDISP*0.9 end "Units Dispensed"..For this example labels.BAGSDISP is a value of 2. So, in theory it should be 2 * 0.9 and the result should be 1.8 but I'm getting a NULL
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a DistributorInvoiceNumber that can end with in 'R', 'A', 'CRR' or 'CR'.I am trying to write a case statement like so:
CASE WHEN RIGHT([ih].[DistributorInvoiceNumber],1) = 'A'
THEN 'ADJ'
WHEN RIGHT([ih].[DistributorInvoiceNumber],1) = 'R'
THEN 'REV'
WHEN RIGHT([ih].[DistributorInvoiceNumber],3) = 'CRR'

For the most part the code is working, with the exception of the fields that just end in 'R'. An example of this is 471268R, 2525125901CRR, 11100325230CR
Basically if the number ends with an A, then its an Adjustment, if it ends with JUST an R, then its a Reversal; if it ends with just a CR then it is a Credit and if it ends with CRR then it is a Reversal (Credit Reversal). How can I differentiate between the different R's since three of them end with R? Would I use a RTRIM command somehow?

I am selecting the count of the students in a class by suing select COUNT(studentid) as StCount FROM dbo.student But I need to use a case statement on this like if count is less than 10 I need to return 'Small class' if the count is between 10 to 50 then I need to return 'Medium class' and if the count is more than 50 then 'Big class'.
Right now I am achieving this by the following case statement
SELECT 'ClassSize' = CASE WHEN Stcount<10 THEN 'Small Class'
WHEN Stcount>=10 and StCount<=50THEN 'Medium Class'
WHEN Stcount>50 THEN 'Big Class'
END
FROM(
select COUNT(studentid) as Stcount FROM dbo.student) Stdtbl
But can I do this with just one select statement?

How I am using a CASE statement within a WHERE clause to filter data:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.GetSomeStuff
@filter1 varchar(100) = '',
@filter2 varchar(100) = ''
AS
BEGIN
SELECT
[Code] .
What I want, is to be able to pass in a single value to filter the table, or if I pass in (at the moment a blank) for no filter to be applied to the table.
Is this a good way to accomplish that, or is there a better way? Also, down the line I'm probably going to want to have multiple filter items for a single filter, what would be the best way to implement that?
I have a bit of trouble getting values into one alias field, my code is below. I am trying to get values into the alias extension, Agent_ID is sometimes null, and so is agent_id2, however sometimes they both have values in them, and then only one of the values is every returned. When in the example below only Agent_ID (11111) is ever returned by I want both of them returned.
Agent_ID Agent_ID2
11111 22222
<code>
SELECT DISTINCT
CASE WHEN [AGENT_ID] is not null then AGENT_ID
when agent_id2 is not null then agent_id2 end as extension
FROM [AA_Helper].[dbo].[tblEmpData]

1. I have a simple JOIN statement between A and B, e.g. Cities A JOIN Countries B:
SELECT A.City_Name, B.Country_Code, B.Country_Area
FROM Cities A
JOIN Countries B
ON B.Country_Id = A.Country_Id
WHERE B.Country_Type='ABC';
That statement works absolutely fine, very fast (less than a second) and returns me 2 records
2. I need to replace Country Area column with 1 for Europe and 0 for all the rest. I implement so in the following way:
SELECT A.City_Name, B.Country_Code, CASE B.Country_Area WHEN 'EUR' THEN 1 ELSE 0 AS Country_Area
FROM Cities A
JOIN Countries B
ON B.Country_Id = A.Country_Id
WHERE B.Country_Type='ABC';
Now to get the same two records it takes 03:55 minutes (!)

Is this a correct syntax to populate a field name PHONES in my CUSTOMERS TABLE
case when(d.phone = (SELECT phone from CALLS where exists(select home_phone, mobile, toll_free from CALLS2) Then 1 END 'PHONES'
I have a stored proc that contains an update which utilizes a case statement to populate values in a particular column in a table, based on values found in other columns within the same table. The existing update looks like this (object names and values have been changed to protect the innocent):
UPDATE dbo.target_table
set target_column =
case
when source_column_1= 'ABC'then 'XYZ'
when source_column_2= '123'then 'PDQ'
[Code] ....
The powers that be would like to replace this case statement with some sort of table-driven structure, so that the mapping rules defined above can be maintained in the database by the business owner, rather than having it embedded in code and thus requiring developer intervention to perform changes/additions to the rules.
The rules defined in the case statement are in a pre-defined sequence which reflects the order of precedence in which the rules are to be applied (in other words, if a matching value in source_column_1 is found, this trumps a conflicting matching value in source_column_2, etc). A case statement handles this nicely, of course, because the case statement will stop when it finds the first "hit" amongst the WHEN clauses, testing each in the order in which they are coded in the proc logic.
What I'm struggling with is how to replicate this using a lookup table of some sort and joins from the target table to the lookup to replace the above case statement. I'm thinking that I would need a lookup table that has column name/value pairings, with a sequence number on each row that designates the row's placement in the precedence hierarchy. I'd then join to the lookup table somehow based on column names and values and return the match with the lowest sequence number, or something to that effect.
how SQL 2012 would treat a literal string for a comparison similar to below. I want to ensure that the server isn't implicitly converting the value as it runs the SQL, so I'd rather change the data type in one of my tables, as unicode isn't required.
Declare @T Table (S varchar(2))
Declare @S nvarchar(255)
Insert into @T
Values ('AR'), ('AT'), ('AW')
Set @S = 'Auto Repairs'
Select *
from @T T
where case @S when 'Auto Repairs' then 'AR'
when 'Auto Target' then 'AT'
when 'Auto Wash' then 'AW' end = T.STo summarise
in the above would AR, AT and AW in the case statement be treated as a nvarchar, as that's the field the case is wrapped around, or would it be treated as a varchar, as that's what I'm comparing it to.
I have an Address column that I need to Substring. I want to remove part of the string after either, or both of the following characters i.e ',' OR '*'
Example Record 1. Elland **REQUIRES BOOKING IN***
Example Record 2. Theale, Nr Reading, Berkshire
Example Record 3. Stockport
How do I achieve this in a CASE Statement?
The following two case statements return the correct results, but I some how need to combine them into a single Statement?
,LEFT(Address ,CASE WHEN CHARINDEX(',',Address) =0
THEN LEN(Address )
ELSE CHARINDEX(',' ,Address ) -1 END) AS 'Town Test'
,LEFT(Address ,CASE WHEN CHARINDEX('*',Address ) =0
THEN LEN(Address)
ELSE CHARINDEX('*' ,Address ) -1 END) AS 'Town Test2'
I have a view where I'm using a series of conditions within a CASE statement to determine a numeric shipment status for a given row. In addition, I need to bring back the corresponding status text for that shipment status code.
Previously, I had been duplicating the CASE logic for both columns, like so:
Code Block...beginning of SQL view...
shipment_status =
CASE
[logic for condition 1]
THEN 1
WHEN [logic for condition 2]
THEN 2
WHEN [logic for condition 3]
THEN 3
WHEN [logic for condition 4]
THEN 4
ELSE 0
END,
shipment_status_text =
CASE
[logic for condition 1]
THEN 'Condition 1 text'
WHEN [logic for condition 2]
THEN 'Condition 2 text'
WHEN [logic for condition 3]
THEN 'Condition 3 text'
WHEN [logic for condition 4]
THEN 'Condition 4 text'
ELSE 'Error'
END,
...remainder of SQL view...
This works, but the logic for each of the case conditions is rather long. I'd like to move away from this for easier code management, plus I imagine that this isn't the best performance-wise.
This is what I'd like to do:
Code Block
...beginning of SQL view...
shipment_status =
CASE
[logic for condition 1]
THEN 1
WHEN [logic for condition 2]
THEN 2
WHEN [logic for condition 3]
THEN 3
WHEN [logic for condition 4]
THEN 4
ELSE 0
END,
shipment_status_text =
CASE shipment_status
WHEN 1 THEN 'Condition 1 text'
WHEN 2 THEN 'Condition 2 text'
WHEN 3 THEN 'Condition 3 text'
WHEN 4 THEN 'Condition 4 text'
ELSE 'Error'
END,
...remainder of SQL view...
This runs as a query, however all of the rows now should "Error" as the value for shipment_status_text.
Is what I'm trying to do even currently possible in T-SQL? If not, do you have any other suggestions for how I can accomplish the same result?
Thanks,
Jason

I wanted to create a report with parameters. The users will access the reports via
http://localhost/Reportserver/myReportName
Now, each user will have their own default parameters and would like to be stored(somewhere!!!) as "user preference", so nexttime when they access this report it should display data with the "user preference" parameters.
Can someone give me some advise to implement this.
Many thanks.
It will be part of the stored proc, but for now I couldn't even get it running in ssms. It will be two parameters/variables, one for order by column name and other for order by direction, i.e. desc or asc.I have tried following three ways, but none is working:
(1)
order by case when @Sort_by= '[A_ID]' AND @Sort_Dir ='Desc' then A_ID end desc
case when @Sort_by= '[A_ID]' AND @Sort_Dir ='Asc' then A_ID end asc
(2)
order by case when @Sort_by= '[A_ID]' AND @Sort_Dir ='Desc' then A_ID desc end
case when @Sort_by= '[A_ID]' AND @Sort_Dir ='Asc' then A_ID asc end
(3)
ORDER BY CASE @Sort_by when '[A_ID]' then [A_ID] end
Case @Sort_Dir when 'Desc' then desc end
