Selecting A Top Record Based On A Datestamp Field
Jan 30, 2008
This is a simple one, and I know that it has to be fairly common, but I just can't figure out an elegant way to do it. I have a table with the following fields:
OrderID (FK, not unique)
InstallationDate (Datetime)
CreateDtTm (Datetime)
There is no PK or Unique ID on this table, though an combo of OrderID and CreateDtTm would ostensibly be a unique identifier.
For each OrderID, I need to pull the InstallationDate that was created most recently (based on CreateDtTm). Here's what I've got so far, and it works, but man is it ugly:
SELECT a.OrderID, InstallationDate
FROM ScheduleDateLog a
INNER JOIN
(SELECT OrderID, max(convert(varchar(10),CreateDtTm,102)+'||' +convert(varchar(10), InstallationDate,102)) as TopRecord
FROM ScheduleDateLog GROUP BY OrderID) as b
ON convert(varchar(10),CreateDtTm,102)+'||' +convert(varchar(10), InstallationDate,102)=b.TopRecord
AND a.OrderID = b.OrderID

I have inherited a query which currently returns multiple instances of each work order because of the joined tables. The code is here and I've detailed the criteria needed below but need the best way to accomplish this:
Select h.worknumber, h.itemcode, h.descr, h.task_descr, h.qty, h.itemised,
h.serialnum, h.manufacturer, h.model_id, h.depot, h.date_in, h.date_approved,
h.est_complete_date, h.actual_complete_date, h.meterstart, h.meterstop,
h.custnum, h.name cust_name, h.addr1, h.addr2, h.town, h.county, h.postcode,
h.country_id, h.contact, h.sitename, h.siteaddr1, h.siteaddr2, h.sitetown,
[Code] ....
Each work order should only be returned once, and with the following additional criteria:
1. i.meter - this should return only the lowest number from that file.
2. sm.next_calendar_date - this should return only the most recent date out of those selected for the certificates on this piece of equipment
3. wh.meterstop as [Last Service Hours],
wh.date_created as [Last Service] - this should return the number from wh.meterstop at the most recent wh.date_created for that piece of equipment.

Minimum Date in DateStamp field is not 1-Jan-100. Wouldn't we expect that.
In SQLServer2000 is it "1-Jan-100", if not WHY ??,
In the previous versions it is "01-Jan-1753"

I am trying to write a stored procedure that updates a value in a table based on the sort order. For example, my table has a field "OfferAmount". When this field is updated, I need to resort the records and update the "CurrRank" field with values 1 through whatever. As per my question marks below, I am not sure how to do this.
Update CurrRank = ??? from tblAppKitOffers
where appkitid = 3 AND (OfferStatusCode = 'O' OR OfferStatusCODE = 'D')
ORDER BY tblAppKitOffers.OfferAmount Desc
All help is greatly appreciated.

Sql is not a strong point with me so I'm just going to throw this out there. I have a stored procedure that updates the quantity in my 'CartItems' table. Is there a way to have something else happen within the stored procedure that will update another field based on other parts of the record? There is a 'lineTotal' field that I need to equal the 'pounds * itemSell' fields which are both fields within this record.
CREATE PROCEDURE UpdateCartItem(@cartItemID Int,@newQuantity numeric(9))ASUPDATE CartItems Set quantity = @newQuantityWHERE cartItemID = @cartItemIDGO

I have table "Clients" who have associated records in table "Mailings"
I want to populate a gridview using a single query that grabs all the info I need so that I may utilize the gridview's built in sorting.
I'm trying to return records containing the next upcoming mailing for each client.
The closest I can get is below:
I'm using GROUP BY because it allows me to return a single record for each client and the MIN part allows me to return the associated record in the mailings table for each client that contains the next upcoming 'send_date'
SELECT MIN(dbo.tbl_clients.client_last_name) AS exp_last_name, MIN(dbo.tbl_mailings.send_date) AS exp_send_date, MIN(dbo.tbl_mailings.user_id) AS exp_user_id, dbo.tbl_clients.client_id, MIN(dbo.tbl_mailings.mailing_id) AS exp_mailing_idFROM dbo.tbl_clients INNER JOIN
dbo.tbl_mailings ON dbo.tbl_clients.client_id = dbo.tbl_mailings.client_idWHERE (dbo.tbl_mailings.user_id = 1000)GROUP BY dbo.tbl_clients.client_id
The user_id set at 1000 part is what makes it rightly pull in all clients for a particular user. Problem is, by using the GROUP BY statement I'm just getting the lowest 'mailing_id' number and NOT the actual entry associated with mailing item I want to return. Same goes for the last_name field. Perhaps I need to have a subquery within my WHERE clause?Or am I barking up the wrong tree entirely..

Hi All,I have a table in SQL Server 2000 that contains several million memberids. Some of these member ids are duplicated in the table, and eachrecord is tagged with a 1 or a 2 in [recsrc] to indicate where theycame from.I want to remove all member ids records from the table that have arecsrc of 1 where the same member id also exists in the table with arecsrc of 2.So, if the member id has a recsrc of 1, and no other record exists inthe table with the same member id and a recsrc of 2, I want it leftuntouched.So, in a theortetical dataset of member id and recsrc:0001, 10002, 20001, 20003, 10004, 2I am looking to only delete the first record, because it has a recsrcof 1 and there is another record in the table with the same member idand a recsrc of 2.I'd very much appreciate it if someone could help me achieve this!Much warmth,Murray

With this query:
SELECT Table1.1ID, Table1.Field1, Table2.2ID, Table2.Field1, Table3.3ID, Table3.Field1, sum(Table1.Field1), sum(Table2.Field1), sum(Table3.Field1)
FROM Table1 INNER JOIN
Table2 ON Table1.1ID = Table2.2ID INNER JOIN
Table3 ON Table2.2ID = Table3.3ID
I get this error:
Column 'fieldname' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in an aggregate function and there is no GROUP BY clause.
Is it because you can't do what I'm trying above or am I missing something?
Thank you!

I am trying to update a record in a table based off of criteria of another record in the table.
So suppose I have 2 records
ID owner type
1 5678 past due
2 5678 late
So, I want to update the type field to "collections" only if the previous record for the same record is "past due". Any ideas?

Okay, let's see if I can explain this one. I am summing multiple lines of data from a labor detail table, by status. Using this query
SELECT EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1, LD.WBS2, P.Longname, SUM(LD.Held) AS HELDLABOR, SUM(LD.TBWRittenOff) as TBWrittenOffLabor, SUM(LD.WrittenOff) AS WRITTENOFFLABOR
FROM PR P INNER JOIN
(SELECT WBS1, WBS2, SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'h' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS Held, SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'w' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS TBWrittenOff,
SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'x' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS WrittenOff
FROM LD
WHERE BillSTatus IN ('x','h', 'w')
GROUP BY WBS1, WBS2) LD ON p.WBS1 = ld.wbs1 AND P.WBS2 = LD.WBS2 INNER JOIN
EM ON p.ProjMgr = EM.Employee
WHERE p.Status IN ('a', 'i') AND P.ChargeType = 'r'
GROUP BY EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1, LD.WBS2, P.Longname
ORDER BY EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1
I get these results...
LastnameWBS1WBS2LongnameHELDLABORTBWrittenOffLaborWRITTENOFFLABOR

Okay, so now, of coarse, I want to change everything. I only want to return rows if there is a value > 0 in either Held Labor or TBWrittenOffLabor. Otherwise, no row return.
Here's what I tried, but it didn't work out because it still returns rows, it just zero's out the values for written off labor.
SELECT EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1, LD.WBS2, P.Longname, SUM(LD.Held) AS HELDLABOR, SUM(LD.TBWRittenOff) as TBWrittenOffLabor,
SUM(CASE WHEN LD.HELD > '0' THEN LD.WrittenOff ELSE '0' END) AS WRITTENOFFLABOR
FROM PR P INNER JOIN
(SELECT WBS1, WBS2, SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'h' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS Held, SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'w' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS TBWrittenOff,
SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'x' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS WrittenOff
FROM LD
WHERE BillSTatus IN ('x','h', 'w')
GROUP BY WBS1, WBS2) LD ON p.WBS1 = ld.wbs1 AND P.WBS2 = LD.WBS2 INNER JOIN
EM ON p.ProjMgr = EM.Employee
WHERE p.Status IN ('a', 'i') AND P.ChargeType = 'r'
GROUP BY EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1, LD.WBS2, P.Longname

I have one table like this:
Code:
CREATE TABLE DlIndexTable
(SessionStartTime DATETIME NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, SchemaID INTEGER NOT NULL,
DLBaseRate REAL NOT NULL)
and one like so:
Code:
CREATE TABLE DlTextDataTable (
SessionStartTime DATETIME NOT NULL REFERENCES DlIndexTable,
ChTimestamp FLOAT NOT NULL, Channel01data VARCHAR (255),
Channel02data VARCHAR (255), ... , Channel16data VARCHAR (255),
CONSTRAINT TxtDatPriKey PRIMARY KEY (SessionStartTime, ChTimestamp))
I want to get some combined data from both tables, so right now I am joining them at the SessionStartTime column, which is a primary key in the first and a foreign key in the second table, something like this:
Code:
SELECT DlIndexTable.SessionStartTime, DlTextDataTable.Channel01data
FROM DlIndexTable
LEFT JOIN DlTextDataTable
ON DlIndexTable.SessionStartTime = DlTextDataTable.SessionStartTime
WHERE DlIndexTable.SessionStartTime BETWEEN '2006-10-13 16:40:08.790' AND '2012-03-01 17:54:30.930'
ORDER BY DlIndexTable.SessionStartTime, DlTextDataTable.ChTimestamp
The trouble is that this query, exactly as requested, gives me all the entries from the second table matching the first, while I really would like to pick just one row (preferably, the first chronologically - by ChTimestamp) so that the first column (SessionStartTime) has distinct entries in the resulting table. What would be the simplest way of doing that? Performance is not a big priority over simplicity since the first table could have only a few hundred rows (maybe a couple of thousand), while the second will be real tiny.

I’m writing a document management system. The documents themselves are created from the contents of a database. The database is SQL Server.
The database contains a table, like so:
ClientID, ProjectID, DocumentID, MinorVersion, MajorVersion, Name
Initially, the user will create a “V0.1” document. So the data would look something like
ClientID = 1
ProjectID = 1
DocumentID = 1
MajorVersion = 0
MinorVersion = 1
Name = “My Document”
Thereafter, the user can create new versions as “0.2”, “0.3”, etc., or “1.0”, “1.1”, “2.0”, etc.
For example, a “2.1” document would be stored as:
ClientID = 1
ProjectID = 1
DocumentID = 1
MajorVersion = 2
MinorVersion = 1
Name = “My Document”
The earlier versions will still exist on the database, but the latest version will be 2.1.
There may be several different documents, with different DocumentID’s (e.g. DocumentID = “1”, DocumentID = “2”), etc., and each of these documents may have many versions.
I’m trying to write a query to display a list of documents showing ClientID, ProjectID, DocumentID, MinorVersion, MajorVersion, Name… but the list should only display the latest version of each document.
So, if the database contained the following records:
ClientID, ProjectID, DocumentID, MajorVersion, MinorVersion, Name
1,1,1,0,1,My Document
1,1,1,0,2,My Document
1,1,1,0,3,My Document
1,1,1,1,0,My Document
1,1,1,2,0,My Document
1,1,1,2,1,My Document
1,1,2,0,1,My Second Document
1,1,2,0,2,My Second Document
1,1,2,0,3,My Second Document
My query should return:
ClientID, ProjectID, DocumentID, MajorVersion, MinorVersion, Name
1,1,1,2,1,My Document
1,1,2,0,3,My Document
… where 2.1 is the latest version of Document 1 and 0.3 is the latest version of Document 2.how to do it.

Here's my current SQL:
SELECT
RN_TEST_ID AS 'Test ID',
MAX(RN_EXECUTION_DATE) AS 'Last Execution Date',
MAX(RN_EXECUTION_TIME) AS 'Execution Time',
RN_DURATION AS 'Run Duration'
FROM RUN
[code]....
Here's a sample of data returned:
Test IDLast Execution DateExecution TimeRun Duration
86722/9/2015 0:0012:08:16180
86822/9/2015 0:0011:29:06181
86842/9/2015 0:0008:29:17119

105252/3/2015 0:0019:10:13305
106682/3/2015 0:0018:55:43103
106682/6/2015 0:0018:10:50123
114572/3/2015 0:0011:40:0726
What I need are two things:
1. The query should only return one record for each test id
2. The record returned should be the most recent. By most recent I mean the RN_EXECUTION_DATE and RN_EXECUTION_TIME of the returned row should be the most recent in time.
For example, in the sample data there are multiple rows with the same test id (for example 10668 and 10525. The 10525 is even more problematic since its execution date is the same for both rows returned - the execution times differ. Again, I want one record per test id and that record should be the most recent in time.

I hope you can help me. I posted this in the microsoft sql server newsgroupa few days ago and got no response so I thought I'd try here. If I canprovide any clarification I'll be glad to do so.I'm trying to calculate a column based on the value of the previous record.I'm not very experienced with SQL-Server.I'm using the following table:CREATE TABLE tblPayment([PaymentID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,[LoanID] [int] NULL ,[PaymentPeriod] [int] NULL ,[PaymentRecDate] [datetime] NULL ,[PaymentAMT] [money] NULL)I have a view based on this table. That view has the following calculatedcolumnsBeginningBalance: For the first record, this is equal to the loan amountfrom the loan table. For each additional record this is equal to the endingbalance from the previous payment record.Interest: BeginningBalance * the monthly interest rate from the loantablePrincipal: PaymentAMT - InterestEndingBalance: BeginningBalance - PrincipalIt might seem I could use a subquery to calculate the Beginning Balance asin:SELECT LoanID, PaymentPeriod, PaymentAMT,(SELECT SUM(PaymentAMT) FROM tblPayment AS tbl1WHERE tbl1.LoanID = tblPayment.LoanID AND tbl1.PaymentPeriod <tblPayment.PaymentPeriod) AS BeginBalanceFROM tblPaymentWHERE (LoanID = @LoanID)But this will not work, because the interest is calculated on the previousmonth's balance. I need to find a way to loop through the recordset. Isthis possible?Thank you,--Derek CooperDatabase9www.database9.com

Hello.
I need to select a random record from TABLE. It might look easy with using RAND() function, but the tricky part is that ID's which are the PRIMARY KEY, were assigned as a random number.
So right now ID's in that TABLE look some thing like that: -18745, 45809, 129, -5890023, 487910943, -209, etc...
If any one have any ideas please respond.

I'm no SQL whizz yet but I'm learning hard, and need to get some information from our DB rather urgently so have resorted to this fantastic forum, only I can't find what I'm looking for.
Basically I'm selecting a whole load of entries that have a (admission)date field after 2001, but I only want to return the Earliest (admission) for each (patients number).
Here is the script I have created to select all the data, but how can I limit the results to just the earliest (admission date) for each (patient).
SELECT
Admission_Year, Admission_Month, Age_On_Admission, [Length of stay(continuing)], [Patient's Number], [Cons epis seq no], Sex, [Main Primary Pas Diag], [Date of Death], [Epi duration], [OP Code1], [Admission date], [Date of Death] - [Admission date] AS [days before death],[Intended Management]
FROM dbo.Admissions
WHERE (Admission_Year > 2001) AND (Age_On_Admission > '64') AND ([Intended Management] = 'inpatient') AND ([Date of Death] IS NULL)
I would really appreciate it if anyone can help with this, I'm sorry I can't really contribute to this forum as an SQL expert as .net is really my forte and I usually spend my time contributing to the asp.net forums. :)

Hi
I'm sure this is an easy problem but my brain is fried today...however how do I do the following:
I have a two column table. One is a key field where duplicates can arise and the other is a datetime field. So you might have some records looking like this:
1231999-06-14 12:17:11.000
1231999-06-14 12:17:31.310
1231999-06-14 12:17:31.000
1231999-06-14 12:22:56.000
1231999-06-14 12:22:58.000
8901999-06-15 10:00:18.000
8901999-06-15 10:03:30.340
8901999-06-15 10:03:30.000
8901999-06-15 10:03:40.000
OK, how do I get the top 1 of each key so that I get a subset of records looking like the following:
1231999-06-14 12:17:11.000
8901999-06-15 10:00:18.000
Thanks in advance

I have the following query I am using to identify duplicate records in one of my database tables:
Code:
SELECT memberID,
COUNT(memberID) AS NumOccurrences
FROM ChapterMembers
GROUP BY memberID
HAVING ( COUNT(memberID) > 1 )
Executing the above proc returns 4079 records...
Now, I would also like to know the ChapterID for each member with a duplicate record. ChapterID is also stored in the ChapterMembers Table...
I tried running the following procedure:
Code:
SELECT memberID,
COUNT(memberID) AS NumOccurrences, chapterID
FROM ChapterMembers
GROUP BY memberID, chapterID
HAVING ( COUNT(memberID) > 1 )
But zero results are returned ...
The ultimate goal here is to identify duplicate records where one of their chapterID's = '81017' and to delete that record from the database.
Anyone have any ideas what I am doing wrong? Also, any suggestions for removing the records would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jandrews

The situation is that we have resources (trucks) that perform shifts. Shifts consists of actions. A resource can perform multiple shifts.
For every resource we want to find the record that:
- Is 'younger' than the last realized action.
- Has actionkind pickup, deliver or clean
I have constructed a solution with CTE and row_number but I was curious if there would be other alternatives. The fact that I'm joining a CTE onto itself and subject the outcome to a partition makes me think there are sharper ways.
Note that the action id in the data below is also sorted but in practice this need not be the case. The sorting key is prevalent.
output of the query is
id_action id_resource actionKindCode
4665 4 clean
34540 96 pickup
24000 901 clean

Hello everyone, I have a query problem.I'll put it like this. There is a 'publishers' table, and there is a'titles' table. Publishers publish titles (of course). Now I want to make aquery (in MS SQL Server) that would return the last title published by everyof the publishers. Quite clear situation. But I can't make it work.If I use inner join (which I should, because I need data from both tables)then I get a result showing all publishers and all titles. What I want toget is all publishers, and only their last title, so I don't have more thanone line for the same publisher, and this line should contain publisherdetails and last title details.I tried using DISTINCT, but it works on a whole resultant row rather then acolumn, and since rows are all distnict (because they also contain columnsfrom titles) this didn't help me.What I can do is (in my application) first get a list of publishers, andthen loop through them selecting only the last title belonging to eachpublisher. I want to see if there is a way to accomplish the same thing withan SQL query (or maybe a stored procedure, view, or whatever). Anything ispossible, as long as it stays within SQL server and doesn't rely on theclient application.Of course, both 'publishers' and 'titles' tables have a primary key('publisherID', and 'titleID'), and 'titles' has a 'publisherID' columnwhich relates titles with publishers.Help :)
