SQL Server 2012 :: Reconcile Values In 2 Databases
Oct 9, 2014
I am trying to reconcile two different databases. Each database holds customer information and some of this information is represented as drop down tables. Here is how it is linked
Attribute name Attribute Values Customer
Color 8, 0 8, 1, 1234, 6 892, 14, 1234, 6, John, Doe
red 8, 1 8, 2, 1234, 6
blue 8,2
Database 2 Sample
Attribute name Attribute Values Customer
Color 5, 0 5, 3, 1234, 6 892, 14, 7434, 5, John, Doe
red 5, 3 5, 4, 1234, 6
blue 5,4
Within a database, the ATTID and Attcode link the attribute and attribute value tables and they link to the Customer table with CustID and Cust Code. One Customer may have multiple entries within the Attribute value table
The Customer tables in each database are linked by the DBID and DBCode values. The other ID's are not necessarily the same across databases.
The object is to compile a list of Customers where these attribute values vary between databases. There are approximately 56,000 Customers in the customer table and 710,000 entries in the attribute values table.
My attempts to do this have produced cross joins with millions of values returned
I am in the process of writing a generic PowerShell script (that executes T-SQL statements) to copy all or some databases from one SQL Server 2012 SP2 instance to a second instance that runs SQL Server 2012 SP2 or higher. The script is designed to be used on demand, and part of its execution will involve reconciling the logins between the source and destination instances.
I am looking for a reliable way to reconcile the logins between the instances in a somewhat repetitive (i.e., "on demand") fashion. There is no SSIS in the environment; so the SSIS transfer logins task to not available to me.
I need to replace all the "User Friendly Names" with "System Names" in the calculations, i.e., I need "Sales Units" to be replaced with "cSalesUnits", "AUR" replaced with "cAUR", "Comp Sales Units" with "cCompSalesUnits", and "Comp AUR" with "cCompAUR". (It isn't always as easy as removing spaces and added 'c' to the beginning of the string...)
I have created a CTE of all the "Look-up" values, and have tried all kinds of joins, and other functions to achieve this, but so far nothing has quite worked.
How can I accomplish this?
Here is some SQL for set up. There are over 500 formulas that need updating with over 400 different "look up" possibilities, so hard coding something isn't really an option.
I know how to get the last run date on all the databases on one serveri have a lot of servers and i was wanting a way of getting the last run date across all servers.
have a Prod Server A having TDE enabled on 2 of those databases. I have a Prod Server B having TDE enabled on 3 of those databases. Now I have to create a single Dev server Server C for all the above 5 databases residing on the two servers. So how can I restore all the 5 database backup files on server C.
Does it mean that I need to copy the certificates and Keys from both the Prod server to this Dev Box and then restore the backup files. Once done, I can enable the encryption ON on those 5 database on Dev box or is there any different approach.Also how will tempdb behave in this scenario.
I have migrated over 700 databases to another server and now I have to add a specific user to all these databases and sync , looking for script to add this user at once to all these databases.
I need a script that will return the mdf & ldf for multiple databases.
I am currently running...
sp_helpdb 'TestDataname'
...and copying the size of the mdf and ldf into an excel spreadsheet.
How can I get the mdf AND ldf file size for all of the databases in an instance? I need the MDF and LDF seperated and I want the actual size of the file as it appears on the file system.
automatically replicates new databases to Availability Group partners - if you do a little prep work on your environment first.To make it work:
1) Create linked servers on all group members pointing to all other servers in the group, with names matching the hostnames they represent. 2) Ensure suitable credentials (or 'current context' impersonation) for linked servers. Also: Enable RPC and RPC OUT 3) Run the DDL code below. 4) Schedule hadr_replicate_queue on [master] to run as often as you want initial syncs to occur. Every 5-10 minutes is plenty for most purposes. 5) Connect to an availability group listener and call CREATE DATABASE :)
I use a slightly more extended version of this code at home to do things like permissions synchronization across replicas - I essentially allow applications to install direct to an availability group replica and then have all the relevant objects replicate to other nodes. I don't really like going through manually and doing things, even though there's an AddIn from SQLSkills for management studio - it still requires manual intervention.
The main use I have for this at home is that I'm using the Azure pack, and want to automatically ensure that my newly created 'SQL Server Cloud' databases are highly available, plus it means when I install a non-alwayson aware product it doesn't require any extra work afterwards to allow failover to another machine.

Secondary server is offline due to a hardware issue and the log files are growing on Primary sever for availability databases. The log drive is running out of space. How can I stop the log growth for the primary databases?
I'm having a bear of a time with this. I have a recordset that pulls data from one, single table. I would like to iterate through the set, do some processing based on that data, then delete all of the records in that recordset.
I'm trying to do something like the following:
Set dbConn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Set dbRS = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
"Multiple-Step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done."
This seems to indicate the connection doesn't think it's capable of reconciling the recordset. Is there a way to do this in one batch or should I stick with executing a single delete statement for every record in my recordset?
A parent can have many children - always has at least one.
A parent always has an 'anti-parent' with an equal number of 'anti-children' to the normal parent
Each child and anti child has a unique ID
I need to reconcile each Parent/antiParent Child/antichild and highlight the differences before.
Normally, reconciliation reports are fairly straightforward due to the fixed number of items, I'm not quite sure of the best way to do this.
How it should look in the report
PARENT A field1,field2,...,field n PARENT B field1,field2,...,field n CHILD A1 childfield1,cf2,....cf n (child A1 and B1 share a unique ID) CHILD B1 childfield1,cf2.....cf n CHILD A2 CHILD B2 ... CHILD An CHILD Bn
So, compare PARENT A with PARENT B and highlight any differences compare CHILDA1 with CHILD B1 and highlight any differences ... compare CHILDAn with CHILD Bn and highlight any differences
order by PackTypeWhat I need is if the PackType is Deposit and need to multiply the number of records by 35, If the PackType is Monthly I need to multiply the records by 25 and if the PackType is Single I need to sum the values in the price column.
I have the following code and trouble reading values of Bank Accounts. If i remove the line it says "xmlns="http://applications.apch1.com/webservice/schema/" then i my query is working. But i cant remove this becasue that is what i will get response from a web service. All the records are stored in the database with this line included.
DECLARE @MyXML XML SET @MyXML = '<GetEmployeeDetails xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <return xmlns="http://applications.apch1.com/webservice/schema/"> <CustomerID> A8339 </CustomerID> <BankAccounts>
I have an existing function and need to alter function to give result of the values multipiled until its parent is reached.need two seperate functions for city and amt columns..need to also display the parent-description
I'd like to get a extract table result, with a reference id primary key, showing the maximum dates for events and who was responsible for them. I can get the max(date) field in columns using PIVOT, but can't see a way to get the 'who' field without lots of LEFT JOINs.
Here's some test data and code which shows the principle:
CREATE TABLE #t ( ref INT , id INT , who VARCHAR(10) , checkin DATE
[Code] ....
The result set is:
ref 1 who1 2 who2 3 who3 4 who4 123 2014-01-18 carol 2014-01-18 andy 2014-01-16 bill 2014-01-17 carol 456 NULL NULL 2014-01-17 NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL
Is there some way to avoid all the LEFT JOINs, maybe by using another PIVOT, to produce the same result?
I have two tables, a dates table and a values table. They are joined on the date column.The date table has a range, say from today as far as 20 days from now, incrementing by 1 day each row.The values table may have a row for a day, and may not. If the day has a value I want to display that value.If the day does not have a value in the values table I want to display the last known value.
I think this can be done with windowing functions in a set based manner but have not been able to work it out. I have done it procedurally but im not happy with that at all, and really want to see if this is possible in a set based manner.Below is some simplified code to allow testing with sample data.
create table DimDate ( DateCol date ) create table TotalsData ( DateCol date
SELECT * INTO TEMP FROM (SELECT 'AAAAA' AS CATEGORY, 'A1000' AS CODE, '01-01-2014' AS STARTDATE, '01-31-2014' AS ENDDATE UNION SELECT 'AAAAA' AS CATEGORY, 'A1000' AS CODE, '02-01-2014' AS STARTDATE, '02-28-2014' AS ENDDATE UNION SELECT 'AAAAA' AS CATEGORY, 'A1000' AS CODE, '03-01-2014' AS STARTDATE, '03-31-2014' AS ENDDATE UNION SELECT 'AAAAA' AS CATEGORY, 'A2000' AS CODE, '04-01-2014' AS STARTDATE, '04-30-2014' AS ENDDATE UNION SELECT 'AAAAA' AS CATEGORY, 'A1000' AS CODE, '05-01-2014' AS STARTDATE, '05-31-2014' AS ENDDATE) X
I need to extract the date that the value in CODE column changes to another code for each value of CATEGORY and if there is no change, to record the original CODE value and its startdate for each CATEGORY.
I have 2 queries where I select all accounts with bill code in 'bmonit' example ('12','39','124','1FA') then I also have a Select where the same account might have additional services, that are not in example ('12','39','124','1FA') and for these accounts I need to just put a 'Y' if stop_date is null.
INSERT #Visits (OpportunityID, ActivityID, FirstVisit, ScheduledEnd) SELECT 1, 1001, '2014-08-17', '2014-08-17 12:00:00.000' UNION ALL SELECT 1, 1002, '2014-08-17', '2014-08-17 17:04:13.000' UNION ALL SELECT 2, 1003, '2014-08-18', '2014-08-18 20:39:56.000' UNION ALL
Basically I'd like to mark the first Activity for each OpportunityID as a First Visit if its ScheduledEnd falls on the same day as the FirstVisit, and otherwise mark it as a Repeat Visit.
I have this so far, but it doesn't pick up on that the ScheduledEnd needs to be on the same day as the FirstVisit date to count as a first visit:
SELECT*, CASE MIN(ScheduledEnd) OVER (PARTITION BY FirstVisit) WHEN ScheduledEnd THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS isFirstVisit, CASE MIN(ScheduledEnd) OVER (PARTITION BY FirstVisit) WHEN ScheduledEnd THEN 0 ELSE 1 END AS isRepeatVisit FROM#Visits
The following t-sql 2012 works fine in sql management studio. However when I place it in a .net 2010 web form application, I am told the sql does not work when the parameter values are null. Thus can you tell me what I can change in the sql below that will accept null as 3 possible input values?
I need to round UP values but they should never be rounded down, below is my expected output in RoundVal column.
SELECT 89 AS Val, 100 AS RoundVal UNION ALL SELECT 329, 1000 UNION ALL SELECT 6329, 10000 UNION ALL SELECT 43299, 100000 UNION ALL SELECT 155329, 1000000
I have a report that I am running in visual studio 2010, that gets its data from a few different stored procedures in a SQL 2012 Database. The variables are Date and Office Code. We currently have 6 different office codes. One of the Stored Procedures gets call information for each office. With the report we can select any single office or any combination of offices to compile data.
The problem I have is two of these share phone information, so when you select either one or both of them the same data gets returned. So for example we have office codes of AAAAA, BBBBB, CCCCC, DDDDD, EEEEE, and FFFFF. Now AAAAA, and BBBBB share phone information so if you select office code AAAAA, the phone info that is returned is for AAAAA, and BBBBB, and visa versa. So I am not sure how to accomplish that either in the report or in the stored procedure.
I have a set of data in which i have a product number going through 6 stages and each stage has a date. Since the each stages are in columns, I have created a unpivot query to transpose the columns into rows.
The unpivot query is working fine however I am getting duplicate values in the result. For each productnumber there must be only 6 results however i am getting 24 rows for each product number due to duplication.
I have attached the code and the source data for reference

So now I need to query the table @t4 in and to determine the items that are assigned to category 'WHITE' in master category 1 and to 'CIRCLE' in master category 2.The important thing is to return items that are assigned solely to 'WHITE' in master cat 1 and solely to 'CIRCLE' in master cat 2.In the above example it would be only the ITEM 1 (id=10) that is returned:
1. ITEM 2 (id=11) is not returned because it has the assignment to category 'SQUARE' in master cat 2 additionally
2. ITEM 3 (id=12) is not returned because it has the assignment to category 'BLACK' in master cat 1 additionally
3. ITEM 4 (id=13) is not returned as it does not have assignment to category 'CIRCLE' in master cat 2 but only to 'WHITE' in master cat 1
3. ITEM 5 (id=14) is not returned as it does not have assignment to category 'WHITE' in master cat 1 but only to 'CIRCLE' in master cat 2
CREATE TABLE A (ID INT IDENTITY (1,1)) CREATE TABLE B (ID INT, EMPID VARCHAR(10)) INSERT INTO A DEFAULT VALUES GO 5 INSERT INTO B VALUES (1,'E23') INSERT INTO B VALUES (1,'E24') INSERT INTO B VALUES (2,'E23')
from the above code i would like to get output like
Question in review today is Creating a Report showing the FName, LName of all Employees not Specified in a region; I would assume "No Value to be Null" Correct?
Or is there another way for me to do this?
This is what I have so far...What am I missing that this is not showing me results?
Select Firstname, Lastname, Region From Employees WHERE Region LIKE 'null%';
I have two tables I am working with, they are "Institutions" and "InstitutionOversights". The relationship is one-to-many.
The sample data is below.
Table one: InstitutionID, InstName ------------------------ 1 School Alpha 2 School Beta 3 School Charlie 4 School Delta
Table two: InstitutionOversightID, InstitutionID, Type ------------------------------------------------ 1 1 Accreditation 2 1 Verifcation 3 1 Old System
I would like a query to return the results in the following format:
InstitutionID, InstName, TypeList ----------------------------------------------- 1 School Alpha Accreditation, Verification, Old System 2 School Beta null 3 School Charlie null 4 School Delta null
--CREATE TEMP TABLE IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#TEMP_WK_STOCK') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #TEMP_WK_STOCK CREATE TABLE [#TEMP_WK_STOCK]( [WMNUMBER] [int] NOT NULL, [STOCKID] [int] NOT NULL)
[Code] ...
returns just 2 rows and misses the fact that the wmNumbers stop and start a few diffrent times. I cant see how to set up the query to bring back the 6 rows i would be expecting it this case, without going to a cursor which i really don't want to.
