T-SQL (SS2K8) :: How To Group Total Count Of Similar Items
Mar 30, 2015
We sell & ship packages that contain multiple items within them. The actual package (we call it the "parent item") is in the same table as the items within it ("child items"). If the record is a child item within a package, its "ParentId" field will contain the ItemId of the package.
So some sample records of a complete package would look like this:
ItemId's 2 & 3 are items contained within the ItemId 1 package.
Now however, the client wants us to build a report showing all packages (all items where ParentId is NULL) however, they want to see the QtyAvailable of not only the package but the items as well (a total of 15 when using the example above), all grouped into a single line. So a sample report line would look like this:
Name | Available Qty
--------------------------
Package A | 15
Package B | 100
How can I do a SELECT statement that SUMS the "QtyAvailable" of both the parent & child items and displays them along with the package name?
select top 15 count(*) as cnt, state from table group by state order by cnt desc
[code[...
Can the above three queries be combined into one and still be fast, if so how?What i am trying to go is an item count, by group, similar to ones Inbox in Outlook.
I'm having an issue creating a report that can group & sum similar items together (I know in some ways, the requirement doesn't make sense, but it's what the client wants).
I have a table of items (i.e. products). In some cases, items can be components of another item (called "Kits"). In this scenario, we consider the kit itself, the "parent item" and the components within the kit are called "child items". In our Items table, we have a field called "Parent_Item_Id". Records for Child Items contain the Item Id of the parent. So a sample of my database would be the following:
Item's 2 & 3 are child items of "Kit A", Item 5 is a child item of "Kit B" and Item 6 is just a stand alone item.
So, in my report, the client wants to see the SUM of both the kit & its components in a single line, grouped by the parent item. So an example of the report would be the following:
Name | Available Qty -------------------------- Kit A | 15 Kit B | 25 Item 4 | 100
I haven't a clue how to accomplish this.All the data is in one table. The data is stored by registration dateand includes county and number of students brokne out by grade.Any help appreciated!Rob
I have a matrix with two row groups and one column group with about 6 items in it. I have about 2100 rows at the lowewst row group level. This report was built solely for excel export. The first row group has about 20 items and controls the visibility of the other group. When I toggle the visibility of the second row group, how can I make the the header of the first row group copy down for each row of the other row group? The first row group is the Section and the second is Mnemonic.
I've posted a feedback with Microsoft to see if we can get them to fix the issue described below, but so far no one from Microsoft has commented to let us know what they're doing about this problem! I'm posting this here to see if maybe we can get more people to rate this feedback or chime in on what a pain it is! Please feel free to add your own comments or how you had to work around this issue and whether or not you think this is something Microsoft should be addressing NOW.
Provide Individual Page Numbering per Group and Total Pages per Group
Currently in a Reporting Services report, you can't readily reset the page number for each group in a table, nor can you display the total number of pages per group. For example, if I'm printing invoices and each invoice is a separate group, I'd like to be able to print "Page 1 of 5" , "Page 2 of 5" etc. for the first invoice, then "Page 1 of 3" when the next invoice begins, and so on. This was easy in Crystal Reports. I realize that Crystal Reports has a two-pass process that enables that kind of pagination. However, this is REALLY important functionality that's just missing from Reporting Services and I'm hoping you'll provide it REALLY SOON! Yeah, I know there are work-arounds if you can know exactly how many rows of information there are on each page. But gosh! That's not practical, especially if you have second level groups inside the main group or text blocks in rows that can 'grow' to more than one line. I've read a couple of work-arounds, but none of them works correctly and consistently when more than one user is running the same report or when you print the report while you're looking at it on the screen. I still may need access to the overall report page number and the overall total number of pages, so don't get rid of that. It's just that if you're doing this already for the entire report, I don't see why you can't do it per group! Lots of people have been asking for this for years, and I don't understand why it hasn't been implemented.
I've read a few articles on this topic, but no one has come up with a decent work around. My theory is that Microsoft should be addressing this immediately. This is major functionality that's just plain missing from SSRS and should have been there from the start. If anyone from Microsoft can let us know what's going on with this issue or if anyone would like for me to clarify this further, feel free to let me know.
I want to count records which has almost similar name. Suppose record has company name like comcast and other record has company name like Comcast-xfinity, so how would I count this 2 records as Comcast?
I have the following record set; for each group where the code of OP=MTL summarize Cost; that is group 10-10= 300, group 20-20=300, group 30-30=600. Then I need to total groups 10-10 and 30-30.
I used ReportItems fields for each break as;
=SUM(IIF(Fields!OprSeq.Value=10 and Fields!RelatedOperation.Value = 10, Fields!Cost.Value,0), "Related Operation") etc,
But obviously when the result is false the ReportItem returns zero, and now I lost the value calculated previously.
As you can see I have added only one contract (for the sake of simplicity). At any given date I want to calculate the running total for a contract (all contracts), but the aggregation must take the contract state into consideration.
You can see my expected result for queries 1 - 3. That means, with the actual state ('B') I want to aggregate all values regardless of their state in the past.
For query 2 the state is 'A' ... I hope you can follow.
Now my aim is to aggregate all contract states for any given date with the right value. The past states of each contract are not relevant. And of course future ones (with respect to the query date) shall also be irrelevant.
Maybe the solution is a combination of 'LastNonEmpty' and SUM/PERIODSTODATE ...
How can I add a group number to the following query?
For example, I want to be able to have all rows that have Category = 'Field Sales' and Division = 'CA BDM' to be given a unique group number (GN):
RN ReportDate Category Division TotalBalance -------------------- ---------- ------------------------------ ------------------------------ --------------------- 1 2015-06-08 Field Sales CA BDM 299743154.3912 2 2015-06-07 Field Sales CA BDM 299765954.0354 3 2015-06-01 Field Sales CA BDM 297902654.4172 1 2015-06-08 Key Accounts Life Office 49954981.74 2 2015-06-07 Key Accounts Life Office 50016989.22 3 2015-06-01 Key Accounts Life Office 50169967.26 4 2015-05-31 Key Accounts Life Office 50169918.01
Becomes
GN RN ReportDate Category Division TotalBalance -------------------------- ---------- ------------------------------ ------------------------------ --------------------- 1 1 2015-06-08 Field Sales CA BDM 299743154.3912 1 2 2015-06-07 Field Sales CA BDM 299765954.0354 1 3 2015-06-01 Field Sales CA BDM 297902654.4172 2 1 2015-06-08 Key Accounts Life Office 49954981.74 2 2 2015-06-07 Key Accounts Life Office 50016989.22 2 3 2015-06-01 Key Accounts Life Office 50169967.26 2 4 2015-05-31 Key Accounts Life Office 50169918.01
i.e. each combination of Category+Division results in a new GN.
The query is:
selectROW_NUMBER() over (partition by Category, Division order by ReportDate desc) 'RN' , ReportDate , Category , Division , sum(BalanceGBP) as 'TotalBalance' FROM FlowsAndOpenings group by ReportDate, Category, Division order by Category, Division, RN
i can do 3 separate select count(*) if these were stored in a table but the result set was created using joins in the Query Analyser. I can also achieve the above result using unions with 3 separate queries with different conditions but this way i have to join the tables 3 times in each query and this is slowing down the query.
Please let me know if there is some other way i can achieve this.
The following query returns a value of 0 for the unit percent when I do a count/subquery count. Is there a way to get the percent count using a subquery? Another section of the query using the sum() works.
Here is a test code snippet:
--Test Count/Count subquery
declare @Date datetime
set @date = '8/15/2007'
select -- count returns unit data Count(substring(m.PTNumber,3,3)) as PTCnt, -- count returns total for all units
(select Count(substring(m1.PTNumber,3,3))
from tblVGD1_Master m1
left join tblVGD1_ClassIII v1 on m1.SlotNum_ID = v1.SlotNum_ID
Where left(m1.PTNumber,2) = 'PT' and m1.Denom_ID <> 9
and v1.Act = 1 and m1.Active = 1 and v1.MnyPlyd <> 0
and not (v1.MnyPlyd = v1.MnyWon and v1.ActWin = 0)
and v1.[Date] between DateAdd(dd,-90,@Date) and @Date) as TotalCnt, -- attempting to calculate the percent by PTCnt/TotalCnt returns 0 (Count(substring(m.PTNumber,3,3)) /
(select Count(substring(m1.PTNumber,3,3))
from tblVGD1_Master m1
left join tblVGD1_ClassIII v1 on m1.SlotNum_ID = v1.SlotNum_ID
Where left(m1.PTNumber,2) = 'PT' and m1.Denom_ID <> 9
and v1.Act = 1 and m1.Active = 1 and v1.MnyPlyd <> 0
and not (v1.MnyPlyd = v1.MnyWon and v1.ActWin = 0)
and v1.[Date] between DateAdd(dd,-90,@Date) and @Date)) as AUPct -- main select
from tblVGD1_Master m
left join tblVGD1_ClassIII v on m.SlotNum_ID = v.SlotNum_ID
Where left(m.PTNumber,2) = 'PT' and m.Denom_ID <> 9
and v.Act = 1 and m.Active = 1 and v.MnyPlyd <> 0
and not (v.MnyPlyd = v.MnyWon and v.ActWin = 0)
and v.[Date] between DateAdd(dd,-90,@Date) and @Date
Hi,I have 2 tables, Mail_subject and Mail_Usage.Mail_Subject contains the subject, body and some other bits of info.CREATE TABLE [Waterford_MailSubject] ([ID] [int] NOT NULL ,[MailSubject] [nvarchar] (50) COLLATESQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS NULL ,[MailCategory] [nvarchar] (50) COLLATESQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS NULL ,[MailBody] [ntext] COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS NULL ,[MailCreateDate] [smalldatetime] NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]GOMail_Usage records the amount of times a certain mail was sent.CREATE TABLE [Waterford_MailUsage] ([ID] [int] NOT NULL ,[RepScreenName] [nvarchar] (50) COLLATESQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS NULL ,[MemberScreenName] [nvarchar] (50) COLLATESQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS NULL ,[MailSubject] [nvarchar] (50) COLLATESQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS NULL ,[TimeDate] [smalldatetime] NULL ,) ON [PRIMARY]GOThey are joined by Subject (not my idea, its a DB ive inherited).What i need is to get the Mail Subject and the number of times thatMail was sent. Ive Joined them using an INNER JOIN which gave me acount of the number of times each one occoured except for Mails thathave not been used. I need to get zero as the count of Mails notsent. Ive tried a LEFT OUTER JOIN but it didnt work either.Can someone point out what i need to do ?
I have the following table Region Table ID ParentID RegionName
RestaurantTable ID RestaurantName RegionID
What i tried to do is count the number of restaurants by specific regionname. My current query is Select RegionID, RegionName, count(*) as RestaurantNo From Region Inner Join Restaurant On Region.ID = Restaurant.RegionID
However I only get the results below RegionID RegionName RestaurantNO 1 A1 0 2 A1.1 2 3 A1.2 1 4 A1.3 0
Where A1.1 , A1.2, and A1.3 are children of A1 in Region table The result is not correct due to A1 should have 3 in RestaurantNo due to it contains A1.1 , A1.2 and A1.3 Could anyone help me to solve this problem. Thank you
I have sql server 2000 that was working fine until today,today I opened EM and under sql server group where used to be all my information now there is NO ITEM, nothing shows(database,Nothing) .no items under SQL SERVER GROUP. But my application connected with sql server is running without any problem insert record and show all data. ERROR MESSAGE: A connection could not be established to sql server-2000- Reason: Cannot open user default database. Login failed
Please vrify SQL Server is running and check your SQL server registration properties(by right clicking on the Win-2000-Server node and try again)
PLEASE what that happens. please iam afraid help me now iam waitting now Thanks
I am using SQL Server 2000. I am logging on local machine. When I open "SQL Server Enterprise Manager," I only see following: Console Root --> Microsoft SQL Servers --> SQL Server Group --> (No items)
The server is running properly and applications are able to access the database. Also, I can run "Query Analyzer" and view all databases.
Please help to resolve the issue to view items in SQL Server Group. Thanks, Suraj.
Installed the Northwind database for data to practice with. I'm trying to combine data from several tables to make the orders table more readable. Meaning, I'm trying to replace the EmployeeID field with the combination of the firstname and lastname fields from the Employees table. Everything works fine until I try to sum the Unit price field from the [Order Details] table. Using just a SUM() function or the Select statement below causes the error and any combination of fields in the Group By command don't correct it. It's clear that I'm doing something wrong, I'm just not sure how to get the data I want or use the group by command properly. Query below:
Select o.OrderID, c.companyName, e.firstname + ' ' + e.lastname EmployeeName, o.orderdate, s.companyName, o.Freight, o.shipName, o.ShipAddress, (Select Sum(od.UnitPrice) from [Order Details] od where od.OrderID = o.OrderID)as Amount from orders o, customers c, Employees e, Shippers s, [Order Details] od where o.CustomerID = c.CustomerID
[Code] ....
Running the first query (with the select statement) works, but returns a row for each of the the items that was ordered for that OrderID and NOT using the Group By. I would like to have the SUM() of the items ordered in one row. Is this possible?
Let's say I have the following table:entry product quality1 A 802 A 703 A 804 B 605 B 906 C 807 D 808 A 509 C 70I'm looking for a way to find the average "quality" value for aSEQUENTIAL GROUPING of the same Product. For exmple, I need anaverage of Entry 1+2+3 (because this is the first grouping of the sameproduct type), but NOT want that average to include row 8 (which isalso Product A, but in a different "group".)I'm sure it can be done (because I can describe it!), but I'll be amonkey's uncle if I can figure out how. I would imagine it wouldinvolve some sort of running tally that references the next record asit goes... to see if the product type has changed. Perhaps use of atemporary table?Muchas gracias!!Cy.
select updatedb.callref, updatedb.updatetxt, updatedb.udsource, opencall.suppgroup from updatedb left join opencall on updatedb.callref=opencall.callref
where udindex = '0' and suppgroup = 'SUPPORT' and (updatetxt like '%' + @Word + '%')
And opencall.status <> '17'This means that when they search for items and they separate each word it is "and" between each one.
They would like it to be more fuzzy with "and" and "or". How can I adapt this?
Hi. First, I am VERY new to SQL Queries and Reporting. A co-worker is "mentoring" me, but I am trying not to fill his day with questions.
I HAVE read the help files, searched the forums, looked at books, and done general web searches, but any answers I have found have either no addressed my issue, or the answers are way over my head.
Furthermore, the (SQL 2000) DB is built into proprietary software (ISS Proventia Intrusion Prevention System), and the database may NOT be modified outside of the software.
With that said, I am querying multiple tables within the DB. I am using Business Intelligence Dev Studio, and placing my queries on a reporting server maintained by my co-worker. My goal is not only to get a solution, but also to UNDERSTAND it so I can continue to learn. Of course, the solution takes precedence over my understanding!
My Primary key is dbo.SensorData1.SensorDataID. dbo.SensorDataAVP.AttributeText returns a different number of rows, containing different data depending upon the value of dbo.SensorData1.AlertName. I need to return all rows, hence the Left Joins.
Depending upon my query, I might have 1000 events, and due to the many rows of data from dbo.SensorData1.AlertName I might return 20,000 rows (or more.)
I would like to return a report that "groups" events by dbo.SensorData1.SensorDataID., BUT, rather than simply providing these in groups, provides me single rows with a plus sign next to each even, that can be expanded for the additional data.
My co-worker has discussed sub-tables, but since I cannot modify the DB, it will be difficult / complex to do so, AND, for me to understand.
One of my queries follows. I have thirteen queries, total, that use various groupings of attributes. I have chosen one of the more complex combinations so I can generally apply the concept to the queries with fewer parameters more easily.
Note, I'll be asking the same question on www.sqlservercentral.com in the hopes of getting an answer I can understand one of these two places - If you answer here, there's obviously no need answering there answering there.
I have a field in a table which was VERY poorly designed, but that is a matter for another day. Long story short, this field contains, in most instances, where the sale was obtained, the sales man name, and a comment about the sale. A few records have garbage data in the field as the salesman name was not obtained so we want to attribute the info to 'unknown'Is it possible in SQL Server 2008 to write a query that will display the saleinfo for each salesman then a total row under the salesman? Something similar to this
Internet Mark .... statistics here Phone Mark - applied for credit .... statistics here Phone Mark - customer referral ..... statistics here Marks Sales Totals .... statistics here Next salesman data would go here
but break that down by each salesman and attribute the garbage data like 85623, albaca, racava to salesman 'Unknown'..This is garbage data that should suffice to achieve my desired end result. I know this is unable to occur with a simple select. I even tried a few CTE queries but couldn't get the syntax accurate due to saleinfo basically being a catch all column I was unsure of how to only extrapolate the data I needed
I am try to count number of items that will result by filtering a date column (one Date column). Ex Column "Created Date" between 1-Sep-2015 To 30-Nov-2015.
I am unable to get any function that is getting right value. The below function return 40, however the actual value when i do manual filter and count is 132.
HiI am new to SQL and am having a problem. I need to fix my query to do the following...2) get a total of the number of rows returned. DECLARE @StartDate varchar(12)DECLARE @EndDate varchar(12)DECLARE @Region varchar(20) SET @StartDate = '01/01/2002'SET @EndDate = '12/31/2008'SET @Region = 'Central' SELECTA.createdon,A.casetypecodename,A.subjectidname,A.title,A.accountid,A.customerid,A.customeridname,B.new_Region,B.new_RegionName FROM dbo.FilteredIncident AINNER JOIN dbo.FilteredAccount B ON A.customerid = B.accountid WHERE (A.createdon >=@StartDate AND A.createdon <= @EndDate)AND (B.new_RegionName = @Region)AND (A.casetypecode = 2)
I'm new to MSSQL 2005 and want to get a summary of a log table. I want to count all the rows for each date based on a DATETIME field called 'post_date' that holds the date and time of each record's creation.
this is the best I can come up with:
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT(LEFT(post_date,11)) AS post_date, COUNT(DISTINCT(LEFT(post_date,11))) AS total_posts FROM log_directory_contacts GROUP BY post_date
The results show each date but the count column ('total_posts') returns '1' for every row even when I know their are more than 1 record on that date.
