T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Comparing Various Currencies Hedged Rates
Jun 13, 2014
I have a task to provide users with a list of currency rates in the following format:
Base Currency
Hedged Currency
Base to Hedge Rate
Hedged to Base Rate
E.g.
"Base Currency"..."Hedged Currency"..."Base to Hedge Rate"..."Hedged to Base Rate"
GBP....................USD.......................1.70.........................0.59
GBP....................EUR.......................1.25..........................0.80
(the dots are for the visual only)
The table I have been provided in SQL has the following structure:
Currency Code
Currency Rate (Rate against the Base Currency)
Base Currency (BIT to recognise which currency is the base one as it can vary from site to site. Only once currency can be Base per a given site)
I have started to implement, but ended up with cursor and temporary table, where I insert the data.
I'm trying to find a way to import data from this data xml feed to get daily exchange rate. I' tried:
select * from openrowset(bulk 'http://www.bankofcanada.ca/stats/assets/xml/fx-noon.xml',single_blob) as x
Which is a feeble attempt at a start; however, am getting this error message:
Cannot bulk load because the file "http://www.bankofcanada.ca/stats/assets/xml/fx-noon.xml" could not be opened. Operating system error code 123(The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.).
PremID is just the PrimaryKey. Then there's the year, and then a load of float fields, each representing a premium paid for each month of the year (01=Jan, 02=Feb etc).
Now what I am looking to achieve is to create separate rows for Table1 from this data.
Starting in January (Prem01), I wish to record a separate line each time the premium amount changes. The best way of exlaining this is to give an example based on the above data.
For the first row (2013), the premium at the start of the year (Prem01) is 100.00. This premium remains until it changes in Prem10 to 130.00. It then remains 130.00 for the rest of the year (Prem10 to Prem12). For this I would want to create 2 rows of data for Table1. The result should look like below.
Hi,Is there an easy way to determine the rate of change for table? I realizethat I could do periodic select count(*) from XXX, but that would onlydetermine the size of the table. It would ignore updates.What I'd really like to do would be able to determine the number of non-readoperations over a table so that I can determine the rate of change for thattable.Thanks for any help..
Hi All, I would like to print out a dataflow's tarnsfer rate (row/sec) to the output window and refresh it in each 5. second. Could anybody help me? Thanks in advance. m
I have a SQL Server hosted on a Win2003 server. I have a monitor on the server letting me know the average download speeds. When I do a large select from a remote connection, it looks like the download rate maxes out at around 10 kb/sec.
Is this an average download rate for a server hosting sql server?
I have this specific problem, that has been causing me alot of headaches for the last couple of days, and I can't seem to fiure it out on my own.
Basically i am working on a many to one currency conversion setup, where I have a fact table with exchange rates for periods and for all input currencies. The reporting currency is USD. Here is a demonstration of the data in it:
Normal period by period conversion is easy enough, but I want to convert the measures at the latest known rate, based on the period selected. Lets say I run an analysis without slicing on time, then it want it to convert at the last entered rate of all time, and if the user wants to run the analysis as of March 08, then it should convert all data to the rate as of January, since this is the latest one known.
I have tried to set the measure to a semi-additive behaviour, with "lastnonempty", but the problem with that is the conversion over time. Here is an example:
I want to show a measure summed "all to date" as of June 08. What I want is it to convert everything at the rates entered in April 08, but what I get is that it convert everything up until Jan 08 and the rates entered in January, and thereafter it starts to use the rated entered in April.
Period Amount LCY Currency Code Exchange Rate Dec 07 100 GBP 2.0563 (Wrong, should be 1.9968) Dec 07 100 EUR 1.4634 (Wrong, should be 1.5197) Jan 08 100 GBP 2.0563 (Wrong, should be 1.9968) Jan 08 100 EUR 1.4634 (Wrong, should be 1.5197) Feb 08 100 GBP 1.9968 Feb 08 100 EUR 1.5197 Mar 08 100 GBP 1.9968 Mar 08 100 EUR 1.5197 Apr 08 100 GBP 1.9968 Apr 08 100 EUR 1.5197 May 08 100 GBP 1.9968 May 08 100 EUR 1.5197 Jun 08 100 GBP 1.9968 Jun 08 100 EUR 1.5197
How do I create a measure containing the latest known rates based on time selection?
I have attached some test data for you that has two temp tables "#worker" and "#worker_rate".
The issue is to find all workers who are sharing SAME SET of rate_codes.
I'm able to get the output as "workers sharing same rate_codes", but unfortunately I could not get the list of workers sharing same SET of rate_codes. Also definition of SAME SET is not defined.
I would like a single SQL to return all employee's total billablecompensation for a year. Their billable rates change throughout the year sounder the employee table (one), there is a compensation table (to many)which has the employee id, effective date, billable hourly rate. So in agiven year calendar year they could have many different (though usually 2 atmost) rates. These rates then have to correspond to and e multiplied bytheir corresponding billable hours from the time sheet table.I know I could create a series of UNIONs and hard code the effective dates,i.e.select from time sheets where employee=john and timesheet.task_date betweenjan 1 and jun 1, compensation.billable rate * timesheet.billable hoursUNIONselect from time sheets where employee=john timesheet.task_date between jun1 and dec 31 compensation.billable_rate * timesheet.billable_hoursI'd have to do that for every employee in a very large SQL.Is there an easier way using straight SQL? If not could it be done with astored procedure?Thanks for any insight.
Ok so I created a SSIS package to get currency exchange rates from web service - http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx . Everything works fine I can run it successfully - i uploaded to SSIS package store - runs successfully./
BUT when I put it in a job - it FREAKING fails every *dem time.
In addition to run it the JOB as SSIS package from store - also straight from the File System = still same freagging error - and SQL 2005 has gotten more stupid than SQL 2000 & DTS - they provide no clue as to y you get an error
I have created a spreadsheet using powerquery and powerpivot. Loading the data on powerquery from different spreadsheets was a charm, the problem is calculating the exchange rates per month.The structure is as following:I have 3 tables, they are:
Dates– Just a dates (loaded directly on PowerPivot). Invoice – Details of invoices for all customers, gross totals are in different rates (loaded through power query) Customer – Detailed information of customers (loaded directly on PowerPivot). Currency – exchange rates (loaded directly on PowerPivot).
Note: I mentioned where they were loaded because I do not know if that really matters, I guess it does not... but extra information will not hurt. Now, let's go to how these tables are connected between each other and their key columns.The Invoice table has information on invoices dates, invoice gross total and customer code. This table is related to Customer table, which has the actual name of customers and other details. This link is done through the Customer Code column. The Currency table have a relationship with the Customer Table through the Country Column.
What I want to achieve is a formula to do the exchange rate based on the Invoice Date column present on the Invoice Table. So I have created a column on the Currency Table named at each month of the year and populated it with the exchange rates for all countries (countries listed using ISO3 format).My problem is while I am able to select a column from the Currency table to do the exchange rate calculation using the below formula, I fail to realize how to do it per month:=CALCULATE(sum(invoice[Gross Value])*SUM(Currency[Reverse]))*Reverse is the column with the exchange rate for the country money to USD.What I am failing to do is how to make that calculation to also consider the month of the invoice and pull the exchange rate for the same month from the Currency table
Get the invoice date then find the column on Currency[Month] and multiply, providing me the USD amount.I was unable to figure out a solution using the filters parameters from Calculate. If some of you ask why I am using SUM inside Calculate, is because if I only use SUM and try to do the math between the two tables I get an error saying that it was not possible to determine the value on Currency[Reverse]. Same happens with SUMX. It worked out with Calculate, but then I cannot create other formulas using CALCULATE on that table because it will give that error on redundancy, unless I add a filter on it, which worked last time (but I do not remember which thing /parameter used to filter, so do not ask it right now.I do not really need that level of accuracy, but my Virgo perfectionist side demands me to find a solution to that, that will not use a single exchange rate, but consider which is the correct exchange rate for the month of the invoice and calculate it correctly for all invoices. Just so you know, the Invoices tables has more than 1million lines.
I am trying to build a query which will be used in an automated report to calculate failure rates of systems based on cases opened through support. Here is where I am stuck. Some systems may have multiple cases opened within the same span of another cases however we would consider this one failure:
System ACase12013-07-11 13:17:09.0002013-07-15 12:05:03.000 System ACase22013-07-12 16:27:50.0002013-07-12 16:29:12.000 System ACase32013-07-12 17:30:32.0002013-07-12 17:40:11.000 System ACase42013-07-12 19:00:24.0002013-07-12 19:04:14.000 System ACase52013-10-01 18:02:23.0002013-10-01 18:11:26.000
Lets say System A generated those 5 cases however Case 2,3 and 4 all happened within the same period as Case 1 so those 4 cases should count as one failure so my end result should be
System ACase12013-07-11 13:17:09.0002013-07-15 12:05:03.000 System ACase52013-10-01 18:02:23.0002013-10-01 18:11:26.000
And that system should show me 2 failures. I was thinking of using a temp table but not sure if that is possible as I am stumped on how to compare the dates to be able to validate if they fall within the range of an older case and whether or not to include them into the new Temp Table.
Hi, I have a table with 3 columns inside - record_id (int) - user_id (varchar) - login_date (date) it is a many-to-many relationship table that record login date of users
Now, I want if I want to COUNT the users who login before 31 May 2008, I would use SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table1 WHERE login_date < '2008-31-05'
That's works
But the problem is I want to split the result to - How many people visit the site only once? - How many people visit the site only twice? - How many people visit the site three time?
I have a field in database money. When I enter value for it the amount entered is for example 20.000. How can I compare this value with noraml vaules i.e. like 20 in my search engine. Will I need to convert it to varchar and then compare it or is there some other way. Also if I need to convert it to varchar, how can I do it?

ok ... it was my error mess, but i just wrote this code :

I am wondering how I would create a SELECT that will select the most recent date from one of two tables. For example, table1 has a field called LastUpdate and table 2 has a field called LastUpdate. I need to grab only the most recent date. I tried this using an inner join...but that didn't work because it only picks the lastupdate form one table only. talbe1 and table2 are tied by table2.table1id. Can anyone help?
Hi All, I have a database field (datestamp) which returns the date the records were inserted into the database. The datestamp was created with the now(); function in .net and is in the following format: 5/23/2006 2:27:45 AM I basically want to return all records that were inputted more than 28 days ago. I have had alook though some other posts and below is the closest query that i could find but unfortunately it does not work for me. SELECT id, datestampFROM table WHERE datestamp > DateAdd(d, 28, GetDate()) Thanks in advance, Jake
Hi , I have three tables T1 , T2 AND T3. T3 is having fields as a combination of T1 and T2 fields.How can I compare T1 and T2 field values with T3 FIELD VALUES.
How do i compare 2 dates without comparing their Time portions. I have a Datetime column in my table which for example has values :-
6/6/2001 7:23:42 PM 6/6/2001 8:01:08 PM and so on....
I have a Stored Procedure in which i am trying to fetch values from this table. The SP has 2 DateTime parameters @DateFrom and @Dateto. This SP is called from a Web page. On the Web Page the user just enters mm/dd/yyyy values for the 2 Date parameters. Therefore the Time portions defaults to 12:00 AM. So when the user passes 6/6/2001 as Date From and 6/6/2001 as Date To values, he doesn't get back the 2 records mentioned above since the Time portion makes the 2 records fall out of the date range.
Is there a way to just do a comparison on the Date portions i.e. give me all the records for 6/6/2001 irrespective of the time. I don't wan't to do individual comparisons for Day then Month and then Year.
I'm new to SQL Server so if the following sounds stupid then apologies. I am trying to design a query which compares columns and filters according to the result of the comparison. We are a UK based charity that provides financial help to families with disabled children (www.familyfund.org.uk). We have a large database (250,000 entries) which we know contains some duplicate/split files from a recent migration. We need to identify these files but not delete them. Currently I am using the following:
SELECT dbo.Families.famId, dbo.Address.street, dbo.Children.childId, dbo.Address.postcode FROM dbo.Children INNER JOIN dbo.Families ON dbo.Children.family_no = dbo.Families.famId INNER JOIN dbo.Persons ON dbo.Families.famId = dbo.Persons.famId INNER JOIN dbo.Address ON dbo.Persons.addressId = dbo.Address.addressId WHERE (NOT (dbo.Children.eligStatus IN (3, 4))) GROUP BY dbo.Children.childId, dbo.Address.postcode, dbo.Families.famId, dbo.Address.street HAVING (dbo.Address.street IS NOT NULL) ORDER BY dbo.Address.street
Obviously this returns all 250,000 records and then we have to search manually. We would like to run a query which compares families.famID to address.street so that where famId has more than one address attched it is returned to the results grid. Does this make sense? is it possible? Any help would be gratefully received
I have a Development and Production database and they are a little out of sink. Does any one know of a way to compare two databases (tables, fields, sp) and report the differences? Thanks in advance.
Trying to compare unique fields from two databases.
Basically what i'm trying to do is get all of the id's out of one field that don't exsist in the 2nd database.
so I have this query
Code:
select Distinct Id from table1 where ID!= (select Distinct ID from table2)
I'm getting this error
Server: Msg 512, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression.
Now I don't understand why because then I query select id from tables 2
I only get 1 value for each row.
Now you should know, the two columns in either table are different, in one of them the first value is "1" in the other the first value is "00000001" although I don't think that should effect anything.
select * from independent_investment_certificate_temp
where independent_investment_certificate_temp.ticker_key = 31
and convert(varchar(40), cast(independent_investment_certificate_temp.maturity_date AS datetime),107) > convert(varchar(40), cast('2006-12-10 10:29:50.733' AS datetime),107)
independent_investment_certificate_temp.maturity_date value is '2005-01-21 00:00:00.000' the query above returns a value even though '2005-01-21 00:00:00.000' is clearly < '2006-12-10 10:29:50.733' but why can anyone plz explain.. how can i compare dates stripping tyhem of the time so that all dates on the same day will be equivalent regardless of the time
Hi, i got this query below, which I'd like to use to compare two sets of date...
select count(*) as rec, convert(char(6),dateEntered,13) as dateEntered from EmailTracker where chtype = '1' AND convert(char(12),dateEntered,13) >= '"& stdate &"' AND convert(char(12),dateEntered,13) <= '"& endate &"' group by convert(char(6),dateEntered,13)
the format of the stdate and dateEntered (a datetime datatype) looks like - 25 Aug 2005
right now, the query simply uses the first 2 letters of the date to fetch the record. That would not do the job as i want the thing to compare the whole lot! not just the 1st two letters...
I have 2 seperate databases and I need to check for rows that are different from each other in a table.
I used access to link the tables in a database and am using queries to check the tables. However, I am having trouble formulating the SQL. What I want to do is not just check for the ID field to see if it exists, but to make sure the whole row exists. How can I form an SQL statement for this?
I tried something like:
Select * from table1 where Column1 NOT IN (Select Column1 from Table2) AND Column2 NOT IN (Select Column2 from Table2). However, I do not think this is correct. I want to make sure that the rows are compared, not individual values.
