SQL Server 2012 :: Filtering Query Using CASE Statement Within WHERE Clause

Aug 21, 2014

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?

SQL Server 2012 :: Update Statement With CASE Statement?

Aug 13, 2014

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

Using Case Statement With WHERE Clause...

Feb 21, 2008

Hi,
I need help to use CASE Statement within my WHERE Clause. I want to change the WHERE Clause based on my condition as following:
SELECT ...
FROM ...
WHERE  (condition)
AND       (condition)
AND       (condition)
AND       (
                    CASE Table.Category
                          WHEN 'Drinks' THEN
                               Table1.Field1 = 1 -- Problem line
                          ELSE
                               Table1.Field1 = 1 AND Table1.Field2 = 1 -- Problem line
                   END
             )
In the above case, my WHERE Clause is dependent on one of the fields in a table. If it has a certain value then only Table1.Field1 is used otherwise Table1.Field1 & Field2 come into action.
I am getting error on the mentioned line (Problem Line). Since CASE is an expression and does not execute a statement, can anyone help me to get my WHERE Clause working...
Thanks in advance...

HAVING Clause Is A Case Statement???

Mar 15, 2007

i have wrote a query which compares two tables, returning anywhere the qty is not the same in each table:

(simple ex)

Select order_no
from table1
inner join table2
on table1.order_no = table2.order_no
group by order_no
having table1.Qty<> table2.Qty

BUT... I need to add a table3, where there maybe (or may not be enters - thus a left join). If there is an entry in table3 then use qty in table3 and not table1... so having becomes:

CASE WHEN table1.Qty<> table3.Qty
THEN table3.Qty<> table2.Qty
ELSE table1.Qty<> table2.Qty END

but how do i actually write this?

Using CASE Statement In A WHERE Clause

May 16, 2006

Is it possible to use CASE within a WHERE?

I have a query which is something like this, but it returns an error:



SELECT * FROM tablex

WHERE

CASE WHEN 'sexec' IS NOT NULL THEN

dm_marque = 'foo' AND year(dm_date) LIKE 'pyear' AND dm_month LIKE 'pmonth' AND dm_weekno LIKE 'pweek' and dm_sexec LIKE 'sexec' ELSE

dm_marque = 'foo' AND year(dm_date) LIKE 'pyear' AND dm_month LIKE 'pmonth' AND dm_weekno LIKE 'pweek' END

GROUP BY dm_marque



In this case sexec is a form parameter, if something is passed then I need to include it in the where statement, if it isn't I need to include something else. I am using CASE because there are three of these parameters and I want it to stop evaluating as soon as it matches as more than one may match but I only want to apply one.

Many thanks

Karen

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Case Statement In The Where Clause?

Jun 5, 2015

I have a population split between two vendors. One gets last names between A and R, the other the rest. Now, on a given date vendor 1 gets everybody.

I can accomplish this with a case statement on the upper range (R or Z), but it seems I should be able to do this without testing at all after the turnover date.

A small bit of the code:

declare @get_date datetime = convert(char(10),getdate(),101)
select top 10 pt.pt_id, pt.last_name
fromsmsmir.mir_acct a join smsmir.mir_pt pt on (a.src_sys_id = pt.src_sys_id
and a.pt_id = pt.pt_id
and a.from_file_ind = pt.from_file_ind

[Code] ....

Seems I should be able to not test the last name after the turnover date, but I can't figure out how.

Conditional Where Clause W/ Case Statement Possible?

Sep 25, 2007

Greetings,

After many hours search many forums and many failed experiments, I figure it's time to turn to the experts.

I need to execute a query that changes the returned data based upon a parameter's value. In my example below, the lob field contains both text values and nulls.


SELECT uniqueID, lob, xdate
FROM mytable
WHERE

CASE WHEN @myparam = 'ALL'

THEN

xdate >= '2007-09-01'
ELSE

xdate >= '2007-09-01' or
lob = @myparm
END

I've experimented with various forms of the LIKE function, checking for null/not null and keep coming up blank.

I thought about using an IF statement and creating different versions of the entire statement, however, in real-life I need to do this with four fields using four parameters (one for each field). The permutations are a little too much.

Any ideas?

Rob

SQL Server 2012 :: Significant Performance Dropping When Use CASE Statement

Oct 14, 2014

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 (!)

I have looked into Estimated Execution Plan, but couldn't spot any difference - all straight forward.

It is SQL 2012 SP1 with compatibility level set to 110

Case Statement On Where Clause If Parameter =NULL

Jun 3, 2008

I am working on a Function that takes multiple parameters. I have a query that populates a temporary table, and then it processes some logic. My question is, if the parameter is passed as null, I dont want the query to be affected by this null value. Rather, I would like to not pass it at all to the query. So if the parameter is NULL, dont pass it through the query. I have the following but its not compiling right:


SELECT bom.pEngr_BOM_ID , bom.fEngr_Item_ID, det.pEngr_BOM_Detail_ID, 1, bom.Bill_Type, bom.Rev_Ltr, bom.Series_Ltr
FROM dbo.Engr_BOM_Control bom WITH (nolock)
INNER JOIN dbo.Engr_BOM_Detail det WITH (nolock)
ON det.fEngr_BOM_ID=bom.pEngr_BOM_ID
WHERE bom.pEngr_BOM_ID=@v_pEngr_BOM_ID
AND det.fEngr_BOM_ID=@v_pEngr_BOM_ID
CASE WHEN @v_Bill_Type IS NOT NULL THEN

Transact SQL :: Case Statement In Update Clause

Jun 4, 2015

I have used the below update query. However, its updating only the first value. Like its updating AB with volume when c.Type  = ABC, similarly for CD. Its not updating based on the 2nd or the next case condition.
 
Update XYZ Set AB = a.Amt * (CASE WHEN c.Type = 'ABC'  THEN  (c.volume)
 WHEN c.TYPE = 'DEF'  THEN  (c.volume)
 WHEN c.Type = 'GHI'  THEN  (c.volume)
 Else 0
 END),
 CD = CASE WHEN c.Type = 'MARGIN' THEN '4105.31'
 WHEN c.Type = 'ABC' THEN '123.1'
 WHEN c.Type = 'DEF' THEN '234.2'
WHEN c.Type = 'GHI' THEN '567.1'
END
 from table1 a join table2 b
 on a.Cust = b.Customer
 join table3 c
 on b.account = c.account and b.channel =c.channel

Why its not working properly? But if i use Select statement instead of update query its working properly.

Using A Field Alias For A CASE Statement In A GROUP BY Clause

May 20, 2004

When I created a CASE statement (This is at work, Pat:)) it is about 30-40 lines long. I gave it a name and set the name = to the case statement:

ie,

SELECT fieldname1 =
CASE
WHEN condition THEN 'blah blah'
WHEN condition THEN 'blah blah'
WHEN condition THEN 'blah blah'
ELSE thisandthat
END
, fieldname2
, fieldname3
FROM tablename1
GROUP BY CASE
WHEN condition THEN 'blah blah'
WHEN condition THEN 'blah blah'
WHEN condition THEN 'blah blah'
ELSE thisandthat
END, , fieldname2, fieldname3

etc.


The long CASE statement in my GROUP BY is awkward to me. Is this the only way to do it? I tried using the fieldname1 but it comes back as an invalid field name and asks for the "expression".

Regards,

Dave

Trying To Use The Results Of A Case Statement In My Select List In My WHERE Clause?

I am fairly new with SQL and still learning. I have used a case statemtent for a column in my select list and want to use the results of that statement's field in my WHERE clause but it is not working for me. Here is the code I have so far:

SELECT
l.loanid,
p.investorid,

case when pc.duedate >= l.duedate then pc.duedate end as RateDueDate,
pc.interestrate
FROM loan l
inner join participation p on p.loanid = l.loanid
inner join paymentchange pc on pc.loanid = l.loanid
where p.investorid = '12345' and RateDueDate is not null
order by l.loanid, pc.duedate

I want to put the results of this case statment in my where clause like highlighted above but it is not working because RateDueDate is not an actual column in the table. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

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.

SQL Server 2012 :: Case Statement On Nvarchar With Literal String Comparison To Varchar?

Apr 14, 2015

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.

Transact SQL :: Case Statement In Where Clause - Select First / Default Value If Two Different Value Exists

Nov 16, 2015

I have scenario where i have to pick one particular value from where condition. Here is the example:A store can have different types i-e A or B , A and B or either A or B.

Store     Type    Sales
11           A        1000
23       A      1980
23       B       50
5         B      560

I want to filter the store in "where clause"  where

1)- if the store has type A and  B, then assign only A
2)- if the store has  type A associated with it then assign A
3)- if the store has type B associated with it, then assign B.

Select Store, sum(sales), Type
from table1
where (TYPE]=  (case when [TYPE] in ('A','B') then 'A'
when [TYPE]='A' then 'A' else 'B'end))
GROUP BY [store], [TYPE]

The above statement is not working for when store has only Type B associated with it.

SQL Server 2012 :: Select Case Statement To Remove Part Of String After One Or Two Specific Characters

Jun 3, 2015

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'
