SQL Server 2012 :: Unique Identifier As Identity Field
Dec 27, 2013
So for years I was using the int identity(1,1) primary_key for all the tables I created, and then in this project I decided, you know, I like the uniqueidentifier using newsequentialid() to ensure a distinctly unique primary key.
then, after working with the php sqlsrv driver, I realized huh, no matter what, i am unable to retrieve the scope_identity() of the insert
So of course I cruised back to the MSSMS and realized crap, I can't even make the uniqueidentifier an identity.
So now I'm wondering 2 things...
1: Can I short cut and pull the uniqueidentifier of a newly inserted record, even though the scope_identity() will return null or
2: do I now have to add a column to each table, keep the uniqueidentifier (as all my tables are unified by that relationship) and also add a pk field as an int identity(1,1) primary_key, in order to be able to pull the scope_identity() on insert...

I have a list of movies that show throughout the year. I would like to assign a unique numeric identifier to each text field.
I have provided some sample data with the output I would like. The Movie_ID in the sample data is just made up, feel free to assign any numeric identifier, preferably of the same length but not a necessity.
create table dbo.Movie_Pre_Fix
(
Report_Monthint,
IDint,

insert into dbo.Movie_Pre_Fix (Report_Month, ID,Movie_Name)

Hi there,I'm new to sql server. I've created a table which can be updated through an aspx form. However coming from an access background I don't know how to generate an auto number. I've read through a number of the threads on here and keep coming across Identity or unique identifier. However I can't actually find out how to implement these.Any help would be greatCheersStu

I've seen this error on several of my databases again and again this week:
Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_XXXX'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.MyTable'. The duplicate key value is (whatever number here). The statement has been terminated.
The thing is, the PK is unique, and the INSERT statement does not touch that column, it touches the other ones. So SQL2012 is the one that automatically generates the next and unique available value.
How can be possible that the value to be inserted (generated by SQL2012) is a duplicate one? By the way, this was not happening on the previous SQL2005 or SQL2008 server where the databases were being hosted.
Here's my SQL 2012 version: 11.0.3000.0 (SP1 applied). Runs on top of a Win2008R2 Cluster.

I have the following insert statement:
INSERT INTO [User].User_Profile
(UniqueId, Username, EmailAddress,
Password, BirthDay, BirthMonth,
BirthYear, Age, AccountType, DateCreated,
DeletedDate, DeletedReason, ProfileStatus)
VALUES
(NEWID(), @Username, @EmailAddress,
@Password, @BirthDay, @BirthMonth,
@BirthYeat, @Age, 1, SYSDATETIME(),
null, null, 2)
SELECT @@IDENTITY
As you can I have a uniqueidentifier (UniqueId) column which I populate with NewID() I'm trying to return this as I need it for other functionality of the website but I can't figure out how I can get it after the insert has completed?

I'm trying to create a unique identifier number that meets the following criteria. The unique identifier needs to be a concatenation of two values submitted from a form and the identity value (primary key) for the new record that is inserted into the database.
So, if the first field is the year and the second field is a objnumber, the unique identifier number would have the format: ("YR" + "objnumber" + primary key value), where the year and object number are what the user selected in the form.
I have a stored procedure that I use to handle the insert, which also returns @@identity for the purpose of passing that value into another stored procedure that inserts child records.
So, within my stored procedure, is there a way I can create the unique identifier number and return that value back to the application? I'm not sure how to accomplish this?
Here is my stored procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.REQ_HDR_INSERT
@ddo varchar(50) = null,
@requestor varchar(100) = null,
@dt datetime = null,
@abrtype varchar(20) = null,
@subject varchar(250) = null,
@description varchar(500) = null,
@review char(10) = null,
@ay char(4) = null,
@origallo varchar(50) = null,
@reqallo varchar(50) = null,
@logl_del_dt datetime = null,
@phys_del_dt datetime = null
AS
Insert into dbo.DIM_ABR_REQ_HDR (ABR_ddo, ABR_requestor, ABR_dt, ABR_type, ABR_subject, ABR_description, ABR_review, ABR_AY, ABR_orig_fund_allo, ABR_req_fund_allo, ABR_LOGL_DEL_DT, ABR_PHYS_DEL_DT)
values (UPPER(@ddo), UPPER(@requestor), @dt, UPPER(@abrtype), UPPER(@subject), UPPER(@description), UPPER(@review), @ay, convert(money, @origallo), convert(money, @reqallo), @logl_del_dt, @phys_del_dt)
return @@identity
GO
I would be using @ay and @ddo as the first two parts of the unique identifier number. Any help is appreciated.
Thank you,

I need to develop a strong licensing solution based on the database accessed...
Currently our solution is easily hackable because the the license information is kept in the database of your choice and is not dependant on some static information, the current encryption key is static and kept in the software so it can be hacked easily. What i want to do to change this is simple in nature but i don't know how to get that one particular info i need.
I want to get some kind of unique identifier for a database (catalog) that sql server could generate. This info must be static and must not be movable. If for example, someone would backup and restore, this information would not be transfered with the backup. Thus, a user that backups his database and restores it on another database server or another database catalog even on the same server would corrupt his license since the Unique ID returned by the SQL Server would be different; the hashing code would change and thus the decryption would fail.
Is there any such info i can query using SQL that will not require admin rights?

GUID = System.GUID.NewGuid().ToString()
End Function
GUID is always 36 characters, for example:

What the best way to store this in a MS SQL database? I'm thinking of using a fixed length string (char). Is there a better way than to just store this 36 character field?

Here's a problem description I read on another post but I have the same issue:
I am trying to Import Data from a csv file into a SQL Sever table. The Data being imported has a Unique Identifier in it but it is being considered as DT_WSTR datatype in SSIS
When i directly try to import, it gives an error:
The conversion returned status value 2 and status text "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".
I Tried to use Data Conversion to convert it to DT_GUID and import into SQL Server table but it again throws the above error.
Anyone has a clue?
Thanks!

Hi !
I have a problem with the unique identifier and don't know how to solve it.
I have a stored procedure, called from my ASP.NET page, which inserts a new record into a table. I need to get the Id of the row just inserted in order to use it as a parameter of another stored procedure which inserts a new row with this value and other values.
I tried with SCOPE_IDENTITY but i don't know how to ask for this value to the first stored procedure and stored it into an ASP variable.
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand
cmd.CommandText = "Insertar_Contacto"
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
cmd.Connection = connect
Thanks!!

I am new to MDM profisee tool and currently working for Addres verification project for my organization.I wanted to clear my doubts here about Unique Identifer in Stage table and how it works.. Here what i understand till now:
Step 1) I created an Entity using MDM profisee UI and it generated a stage table in MDS database called stg.Address_leaf
Step 2) I have loaded data from external source to MDS stage table using ETL and passed Import type as 2 and Import status id as 0
Step 3) I have run store procudure system generated something stg.udp_Address_leaf to load the model and passed the version name as Version_1, Log flag as '1' and Batch tag as 'Address'
Now my below are my questions:
1) What is the field i can use in MDS stage table to populate my unique intifier value coming from source? (lets say Address_Id is my Unique value for all the records coming from source)
2) Where/how Unique Identifier is useful in this process? Will this be useful in next time load from stage to Model?
3) If i truncate and load my MDS stage table in next run and few earlier records has been updated how it will update those records in Model? will this process (code present in SP) recognize by Unique Identier column present in MDS stage table?

I ran into an interesting situation. I'm working on contract and was looking at creating an ERD for an existing database when I ran into a problem. I found FK's that are referencing columns that do not have a unique constraint or a unique index.
I don't know the history of the database but was there a time in SQL Server history where this would have been possible? I scripted out the tables and created it in a test database. When I run the script to create the FK I get the following message.
I double checked the original tables and this FK does exist in table1 and there is no unique anything in the referenced table, table2. Currently the database is running on SQL Server 2008 Ent.
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[table1] WITH CHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_table1] FOREIGN KEY([Col1])
REFERENCES [dbo].[table2] ([col2])
There are no primary or candidate keys in the referenced table 'dbo.table2' that match the referencing column list in the foreign key 'FK_table1'.

While I have learned a lot from this thread I am still basically confused about the issues involved.
.I wanted to INSERT a record in a parent table, get the Identity back and use it in a child table. Seems simple.
To my knowledge, mine would be the only process running that would update these tables. I was told that there is no guarantee, because the OLEDB provider could write the second destination row before the first, that the proper parent-child relationship would be generated as expected. It was recommended that I create my own variable in memory to hold the Identity value and use that in my SSIS package.
1. A simple example SSIS .dts example illustrating the approach of using a variable for identity would be helpful.
2. Suppose I actually had two processes updating these tables, running at the same time. Then it seems the "variable" method will also have its problems. Is there a final solution other than locking the tables involved prior to updating them or doing something crazy like using a GUID for the primary key!
3. We have done the type of parent-child inserts I originally described from t-sql for years without any apparent problems. (Maybe we were just lucky.) Is the entire issue simply a t-sql one or does SSIS add a layer of complexity beyond t-sql that needs to be addressed?
TIA,

I have an identity field on a table in SQL Server. The identity seedis 1 and the identity increment is 1. If I remove a record from thistable, the identity sequence is broken. For example:Table contents prior to record delete:Fname(varchar), Lname (varchar), row_id (identity)--------------------------------------------------Smith, Jane, 1Smith, Tom, 2Jones, Mark 3Delete from mytable where row_id = 2Fname(varchar), Lname (varchar), row_id (identity)---------------------------------------------------Smith, Jane, 1Jones, Mark 3How can I re-set the identity field so that there are no gaps in thesequence?For example, I want to update the sequence after the delete so thatrecords look like this:Fname(varchar), Lname (varchar), row_id (identity)---------------------------------------------------Smith, Jane, 1Jones, Mark 2
