SQL Server 2008 :: Aggregate In Update Statement
Apr 16, 2015
I'm getting the following error message 'An aggregate may not appear in the set list of an UPDATE statement' What is the proper way to carry out an update on aggregates?
My code is below:
t1.TotalTest1 = coalesce(Sum(t2.AmountTest1), 0.00),
t1.TotalTest2 = coalesce(Sum(t2.AmountTest2), 0.00),
t1.TotalTest3 = coalesce(Sum(t2.AmountTest3), 0.00),
t1.TotalTest4 = coalesce(Sum(t2.AmountTest4), 0.00),
from #tbl_CHA t1
inner join

I am trying to update a field in a table with the most recent event_date. However, I am receiving the following error:
Msg 157, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
An aggregate may not appear in the set list of an UPDATE statement.
My code appears below:
----------------
update mraOI
set mraOI.event_history_key = eh.event_history_key,
mraOI.event_date = MAX(eh.event_date),
mraOI.event_time = eh.event_time,
mraOI.event_type_key = eh.event_type_key,
mraOI.item_key = eh.item_key,
mraOI.associated_item_ke = eh.associated_item_ke
FROM reports.MedRecActionOI mraOI INNER JOIN
srm.EVENT_HISTORY eh ON mraOI.CC_episode_key = eh.item_key
-----------------
Can someone suggest a better method or a work around?

Problem Summary: Merge Statement takes several times longer to execute than equivalent Update, Insert and Delete as separate statements. Why?
I have a relatively large table (about 35,000,000 records, approximately 13 GB uncompressed and 4 GB with page compression - including indexes). A MERGE statement pretty consistently takes two or three minutes to perform an update, insert and delete. At one extreme, updating 82 (yes 82) records took 1 minute, 45 seconds. At the other extreme, updating 100,000 records took about five minutes.When I changed the MERGE to the equivalent separate UPDATE, INSERT & DELETE statements (embedded in an explicit transaction) the entire update took only 17 seconds. The query plans for the separate UPDATE, INSERT & DELETE statements look very similar to the query plan for the combined MERGE. However, all the row count estimates for the MERGE statement are way off.
Obviously, I am going to use the separate UPDATE, INSERT & DELETE statements. The actual query plans for the four statements ( combined MERGE and the separate UPDATE, INSERT & DELETE ) are attached. SQL Code to create the source and target tables and the actual queries themselves are below. I've also included the statistics created by my test run. Nothing else was running on the server when I ran the test.
Server Configuration:
SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1, Enterprise Edition
3 x Quad-Core Xeon Processor
Max Degree of Parallelism = 8
148 GB RAM
SQL Code:
Target Table:
USE TPS;
IF OBJECT_ID('dbo.ParticipantResponse') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE dbo.ParticipantResponse;

I want to pivot a table something like this .I pivoted it successfully but the results are not correct.
Here is the example :

If I have a table with 1 or more Nullable fields and I want to make sure that when an INSERT or UPDATE occurs and one or more of these fields are left to NULL either explicitly or implicitly is there I can set these to non-null values without interfering with the INSERT or UPDATE in as far as the other fields in the table?
EXAMPLE:
CREATE TABLE dbo.MYTABLE(
ID NUMERIC(18,0) IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
FirstName VARCHAR(50) NULL,
LastName VARCHAR(50) NULL,
[Code] ....
If an INSERT looks like any of the following what can I do to change the NULL being assigned to DateAdded to a real date, preferable the value of GetDate() at the time of the insert? I've heard of INSTEAD of Triggers but I'm not trying tto over rise the entire INSERT or update just the on (maybe 2) fields that are being left as null or explicitly set to null. The same would apply for any UPDATE where DateModified is not specified or explicitly set to NULL. I would want to change it so that DateModified is not null on any UPDATE.
INSERT INTO dbo.MYTABLE( FirstName, LastName, DateAdded)
VALUES('John','Smith',NULL)
INSERT INTO dbo.MYTABLE( FirstName, LastName)
VALUES('John','Smith')
INSERT INTO dbo.MYTABLE( FirstName, LastName, DateAdded)
SELECT FirstName, LastName, NULL
FROM MYOTHERTABLE

Ok I have a query "SELECT ColumnNames FROM tbl1" let's say the values returned are "age,sex,race".
Now I want to be able to create an "update" statement like "UPATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race" dynamically and execute this UPDATE statement. So, if the next select statement returns "age, sex, race, gender" then the script should create "UPDATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race + gender" and execute it.

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

Hello,
I want to count how many occurences their is of each date that is returned by my sql query. I am not sure how to add the aggregate function code to my query I know how to just tell it to count all records, but not to tell it to count for each group of dates. For example I want it to count how many times 5/6/08 shows up in the returned results and so on. Here is my query I currently have. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
The enc_timestamp is my date field.
Select a.template_id, a.enc_timestamp, a.created_by, b.first_name, b.last_name, b.last_name +', ' + b.first_name as fullname
From template_audit a
Join user_mstr b on a.created_by = b.user_id
GROUP BY a.template_id, a.enc_timestamp, a.created_by,b.first_name, b.last_name
Having a.template_id IN (543,3172,3031,3030,3134,3135,3171,1401,1937,3985,3173,2320,57,849,1775,1400,1747,3695,3957,3750,3954,3027,3241)
ORDER BY a.enc_timestamp, b.first_name, b.last_name;
Thanks in advance,

I have a location table that contains all North American zip codes, thecity, county, state etc.. each record has a GUID. My problem is thatseveral places in the US you will have a single city and zip code thatcrosses a county line. So if you need to match this table to anotherin a select statement using the zip and city you can pull 2 recordsthat are duplicated for everything except the county.Now for my use I don't care about the county, only want 1 record but Ineed one of the 2 guids that is generated by this select statement andreally don't care which one.The only way that I can think to do this is by grouping on the zip andcity. My problem is that I need to grab one of the GUIDs and it is notpermissible to use an aggregate on one a GUID.I really don't want to have to pull the county in to match to thistable as it is not really a relevant field for what I am doing and itwould cause several hours of additional work to the front end entryscreen. Also unfortunately the data in my table needs to remain as itis because it is linked with sales tax rate tables.And yes 2 people might be the same city and zip code, maybe even nextdoor neighbors, but being in different counties they might paydifferent sales tax rates.Any ideas?

I have the linked server connection created and works perfectly well. I mean I am able to see the tables while I am on my database.
how do I write a SQL statement to reference the linked server ?
I tried the following:
Select top 100 * from casmpogdbspr1.MPOG_Collations.dbo.AsaClass_Cleaned
Then I get the error message....
Msg 7314, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "casmpogdbspr1" does not contain the table ""MPOG_Collations"."dbo"."AsaClass_Cleaned"". The table either does not exist or the current user does not have permissions on that table.

I want the sum of an amount to update another table using inner join.
The following query -

SET A.[Col3] = SUM(B.[Col3])
FROM A

Gives me an error saying I cannot use SET with aggregate Column.
How do I perform this aggregate update?

What statement do I use, as part of an insert trigger, to insert xml data from the xml database to a flat file database, to check if a record with a specific ID exists to delete first then insert the changed record, instead of adding the changes or an updated from the original xml database.
What I’m trying to do is take the xml formatted data out of one sql server database and insert the data only in that xml into a another sql database. So I can play with the data.
Problem is if the data in the xml is updated or changed for a specific record on the original xml database then the trigger inserts another copy into the created database (which I don’t want).
This is on SQL Server 2008R2.

I'm automating some of the TDE stuff and while doing so stuck somewhere. I'm unable to use section [ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = ''"' + @db_pswd + '"'' ] properly as in if the user (DBA) wants to pass a single quote(') in the password, then it will fail.
I used quoted_identifier OFF/ON outside my proc, no luck still.

I have data that I want at multiple granularities, 5,15,30 and 60 minutes. To reduce repetition, I have put them all in the same table, so that there is a column for 5,15,30 and 60 minutes, with a filtered index on each of the columns that removes the nulls. This means that each day will have 288 slots, but only 24 of the slots are filled in for 60 min data, and all of them are filled for 5 minute data.
I have another column that specifies the interval granularity, and my first thought was to access my data through a join, where I can use a CASE statement, and depending on the data granularity necessary, it will look at a different column:
INNER JOIN Data d ON
AND d.settlement_key =
CASE st.interval_granularity
WHEN 5 THEN [5_min_settlement_key]
WHEN 15 THEN [15_min_settlement_key]
WHEN 60 THEN [60_min_settlement_key]
ELSE NULL END
Despite the presence of the indexes on the columns, then the process seems to be quite slow, I think probably due to the fact that any query plan isn't going to know beforehand which of the columns it is going to use for any given dataset, until it actually starts to run, so it may not be optimised.
How I could optimise this based on the given structure? Maybe there are hints to be added to the join, or maybe I can clear the query plan each time the SQL is run? My other option for dealing with the data of different granularity was to use one column and repeat the data multiple times, each at the different granularity, but this makes my data, row and table sizes much higher, as we are adding just a column for each additional granularity. Would this work any better in future versions of SQL server, maybe with column store indexes?

Ok, for a bunch of cleanup that i am doing with one of my Portal Modules, i need to do some pretty wikid conversions from multi-view/stored procedure calls and put them in less spid calls.
currently, we have a web graph that is hitting the sql server some 60+ times with data queries, and lets just say, thats not good. so far i have every bit of data that i need in a pretty complex sql call, now there is only one thing left to do.
Problem:
i need to call an aggregate count on the results of another aggregate function (sum) with a group by.
*ex: select count(select sum(Sales) from ActSales Group by SalesDate) from ActSales
This is seriously hurting me, because from everything i have tried, i keep getting an error at the second select in that statement. is there anotherway without using views or stored procedures to do this? i want to imbed this into my mega sql statement so i am only hitting the server up with one spid.
thanks,

I have run into a perplexing issue with how to UPDATE some rows in my table correctly.I have a Appointment table which has Appointment Times and a Appointment Names. However the Name is only showing on the Appt start Time line. I need it to show for its duration. So for example in my DDL Morning Appt only shows on at 8:00 I need it to show one each line until the next Appt Starts and so on. In this case Morning Appt should show at 8:00,8:15, 8:30.
CREATE TABLE #TEST ( ApptTime TIME, ApptName VARCHAR (20), DURATION TINYINT)
INSERT INTO #TEST VALUES ('8:00', 'Morning Appt', 45), ('8:15', NULL, NULL),('8:30', NULL,NULL),('8:45', 'Brunch Appt', 45),('9:00', NULL,NULL),('9:15', NULL,NULL),
('9:30', 'Afternoon Appt', 30),('9:45', NULL,NULL),('10:00', NULL,NULL).

I have a query, I am trying to update a certain column in my query you can see that is hard coded. The column that I am trying to update is "O_Test" I used a select statement trying to figure out how many records that accounts for with the entire database of all the tables. I got 643 records. So I am wondering if there is a way I can update all the columns without looking up each table and updating each one. This Update statement wont work because I am accounting for all records in the DB of all tables associated of what I hard coded
SELECT t.name AS table_name,
SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS schema_name,
c.name AS column_name
FROM sys.tables AS t
INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.OBJECT_ID = c.OBJECT_ID
WHERE c.name LIKE '%O_Test%'
ORDER BY schema_name, table_name;

I have a table and a specific column inside this table. I know this table is being updated, by using sys.dm_db_index_usage_stats, I was able to determine this, by some process (stored procedure / SQL Job / etc), but the problem is, I am not sure what process is doing it.
How would I search our SQL Server 2008 database to find any process that manipulates this table / column (I only care about Inserts / Updates and Deletes, but do not really care for SELECT).

Here is the example:
I have two tables. One has Projects with the total amt of hours worked on the project itself. The other is an Employee_Projects table with individual rows of hrs per employee worked on the above referenced projects.
I need to SUM all the hrs from the Employee_Projects table and GROUP BY project number, then UPDATE the Projects table with the sum of hours where the Project Number from table A matches the Project Number from table B.
Of course, you cant use an aggregate function in an UPDATE clause, so what would be the easiest way to do this??
Any help would be much appreciated.

Currently our database size is around 350G. It will grow up to 1.5 TB
We have the
Auto create statistics option :True,
auto update statistics option :True,
auto update statistics asynchronously option : False
at database level
we have a weekly job, update statistics running very long time. It is created through maintenance plan using the option full scan.
Previously they tested with sampling but instead of full scan running with the sampling effected the queries.
Is there option to avoid the long time job duration.
If we didn't run the statistics manually what will happen? How do you maintain statistics with large databases

I ran a db update script to update the datatype for a column from a tinyint to a smallint:
ALTER TABLE MyTable
ALTER COLUMN Age smallint
Then I ran another db update script to update the value in these 2 columns:
update MyTable
set Age = Age * 12,
However, the second db update script returns the following error:
Msg 220, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Arithmetic overflow error for data type tinyint, value = 1440.
The statement has been terminated.
SSMS shows the column with the new data type of smallint. I even restarted SSMS but I still get the error above. 1440 is out of range for a tiny int but should be in range for a smallint. Both scripts need to be executed together in sequence by the release manager.
