Transact SQL :: Create Unique ID Based On Existing Fields
Sep 1, 2015
I have the following table (Table does not have unique key id )
Last Name   First Name     DATE     Total-Chrg
Jaime        KRiSH      5/1/2015     -4150.66
Jaime        KRiSH      5/1/2015      1043.66

May be we may do by dense_rank or Row_Number, but I couldn't get the exact query to produce based on the above table values. Â There are some duplicates in the table(which are not duplicates as per the Business). For those duplicated Unique ID should be same(Marked in Orange Color which are duplicates).Â
I am working on creating a report which is retrieving data from a SQL 2005 database and being displayed in a C#.net web page. Presently, I am binding the dataset to a ASP:Gridview on the web page. I am currently retrieving most of the needed fields using the following SQL statement:PROCEDURE [dbo].[pr_getReportTickets] @DateCreated nvarchar(15) ASBEGIN -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from -- interfering with SELECT statements. SET NOCOUNT ON; -- Insert statements for procedure hereSELECT tbl_Queue.num_TicketNumber AS TicketID , tbl_Users.str_Name AS Technician , tbl_Queue.str_QueueLocator AS TechNTID , tbl_Queue.dat_ReceivedRequest AS dateCreated , tbl_Queue.dat_DueDate AS DueDate , tbl_Queue.str_TaskName AS TicketTitle , tbl_Queue.str_Requestor AS RequestorNTID --, I need most current dat_TimeStamp from tbl_Notes here for this record --, I need most current int_PercentComplete from tbl_Notes here for this record --, I need to sum up all of int_MinutesWorked fields from tbl_Notes here for this record , MasterEmp.dbo.fn_FormatFullName(tbl_employee.str_fname, tbl_employee.str_lname) AS RequestorName , tbl_Queue.str_TicketType AS TicketType , tbl_Status.str_TaskStatus AS TicketStatus , tbl_Severity.str_Priority , tbl_Complexity.str_Complexity , tbl_Severity.str_Priority + N' / ' + tbl_Complexity.str_Complexity AS Priority , tbl_Queue.dat_CompleteDate as DateCompleted FROM dbo.tbl_Queue LEFT OUTER JOIN MasterEmp.dbo.tbl_employee AS tbl_employee ON dbo.tbl_Queue.str_Requestor = tbl_employee.str_ntid LEFT OUTER JOIN tbl_Users ON tbl_Queue.str_QueueLocator = tbl_Users.str_ntid LEFT OUTER JOIN tbl_Status ON tbl_Queue.num_Status_CD = tbl_Status.num_Status_CD LEFT OUTER JOIN tbl_Severity ON tbl_Queue.str_Severity = tbl_Severity.str_Severity LEFT OUTER JOIN tbl_Complexity ON tbl_Queue.int_ComplexID = tbl_Complexity.int_ComplexID WHERE (dbo.tbl_Queue.dat_ReceivedRequest > CONVERT(DATETIME, @DateCreated, 102)) ORDER BY TicketType, tbl_Queue.str_Severity I also have another table called tbl_Notes. This table contains an unlimited quantity of records for every “num_TicketNumber�. This table contains the following fields: num_TicketNumber, str_TechRep, str_Notes, dat_TimeStamp, int_PercentComplete and int_MinutesWorked I need to add two more fields to the query, but I do not know how to tell the SQL statement how to retrieve the data for the specfic record and inbed the fields into the Dataset being returned from the database to the web page.1) The first field I need is the most current recorded Date field from the tbl_Notes table for the each of the records returned in the above SQL statement. Similar to: SELECT TOP (1) dat_TimeStamp FROM tbl_Notes WHERE(num_TicketNumber = xxxx) ORDER BY dat_TimeStamp DESC2) The other field I need to return with the Dataset is the sum of the int_MinutesWorked for each of the tickets being retrieved. Similar to: SELECT SUM(int_MinutesWorked) AS TotalMinutesFROM tbl_Notes WHERE (num_TicketNumber = 49)
I am using MS SQL 2012. I have a table that contains all the data that I need, but I need to summarize the data and also add up decimal fields while at it. Then I need a total of those added decimal fields. My data is like this:
I have Providers, a unique ID that Providers will have multiples of, and then decimal fields. Here are my fields:
I'm a newby to SQL and looking for how-to-help. I have an existing DB and within a certain table, I have created a new Column via Studio manager, but need help with the following:
Need to make the new Col "Unique, and Indexed" but cannot see anywhere in studio manager interface to do it.
I have a scenario here where the data looks like -
IDÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Date 100Â Â Â Â Â Â 07/01 100Â Â Â Â 07/02 100Â Â Â 07/03 100Â Â 08/01 100Â Â 08/02 100Â Â 08/15
Now I need to find out unique occurrences of ID - 100 ( where count =Â unique only if the occurrences are in consecutive days, gap of even 1 day causes it to be a different instance ) - SO with the above data I should have unique occurrences as 3.efficient way to calculate this ?
I have a record in an Excel format (Excel 2010) and I would like to bulk import that into SQL Server 2008 and also while importing, SQL Server will automatically create a new table based on the header fields or row of the source file.
I am not sure if SQL Server 2008 has this capabilities.
I want to add a unique constraint on 3 fields, to only allow the value in the field ONE time. The value will NEVER be the same for anything else. This is the table structure
Code: Create Table Employees ( P_Id int NOT NULL, InstructorName varchar(255) NOT NULL, CourseName varchar(100) NOT NULL, DataTableName varchar(100) NOT NULL )
I want to create a unique constraint across the fields Instructorname, CourseName, DataTableName as their is ONLY 1 instructor per course per table so those 3 fields will ALWAYS hold unique values. I think the constraint syntax would go like so, but want to check before I go butchering some sql syntax.
I'm developing a report in RS 2000 that uses two datasets. The first dataset provides data to a drill-down report on the top part of the screen and the second small dataset provides some data for additional summary information on the bottom of the screen. I'm getting a runtime error "An unexpected error occurred in Report Processing. The expression referenced a non-existing field in the fields collection." Of course, I've edited every expression I can think of: text boxes, data grid, parameters, filters, drill-down lists... I think I've gone through every object on the report but I can't isolate the bad expression. Can anyone suggest a better way to debug this type of error? It compiles fine, but fails in runtime. thanks.
I feel sure that this is a very naive question, but it is freeky me out that I can solve it. With SQL server what is the easiest way to make a field other than the Primary key unique?Would appreciate help with this. ThanksPaul
I'm designing an app for stock keeping. In my DB, I have a field called "ItemSerialNo" and I made it unique(but not the table's primary key). On my front end, I have a text box for Item Serial No and a combo box loaded with the item brands and also a save button. I know that if I try to save a serial no already existing in my DB, the app won't allow me because of the unique property of the field named "ItemSerialNo". But I want to be able to save a serial no already existing in my DB but with a different brand name.
For example, I want to be able to save information like:
1. ITEM SERIAL NO = 12345 BRAND NAME = AA 2. ITEM SERIAL NO = 12345 BRAND NAME = BB.
I have a field where all of the data is 5 characters in length. The last character denotes a status and will always be an F, H, or T. I want to add a new field (which I will do manually) and populate the new field with the last character from the "old" field. Once that is complete, I want to eliminate that 5th character from the old field.
What I need to do is re-populate a unique number into multiple fields,
Let me explain, An employee can appear in the first table only once but can be in the second table multiple times with multiple employee numbers .There is a field called TFN that is unique and we are using it to create a unique id called KRid so what I have done is created 2 tables namely TEST_TBL and TEST2_TBL . In TEST_TBL I am populating a KRid with a unique no being produced by the TFN field only once i.e 12345 being the resulting unique id number. If an employee has 2 employee numbers i.e empno 1 and empno 1000,only employee no 1 will have the unique KRid created but nothing for 1000 because the record already exists , so what has me stumped is that the TFN for employee empno 1 and the TFN for empno 1000 are the same. How do I get the KRid (12345 from empno 1) to populate empno 1000 in TEST2_TBL , The second table has all records in so I can group the second table by TFN id but how do I populate employee 1000 in the second table with the KRid 12345.
Please help!!!!! Below are how the tables are set up and an example of the result.
TABLE 1
if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[TEST_TBL]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) drop table [dbo].[TEST_TBL] GO
if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[TEST2_TBL]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) drop table [dbo].[TEST2_TBL] GO
SELECT NPE000.EmpNumber, NPET00.RecordStatus, NPE000.KR_ID, NPE000.Surname, NPE000.FirstName, NPE000.SecondName, NPE000.Class, NPE000.DateEmployed, NPE000.DateOfBirth, NPE000.HoursPerDay, NPE000.HoursPerWeek, NPE000.PassportNo, NPE000.AwardCode, NPE000.EmailPayslipTo, NPE000.Location, NPE000.Grade, NPE000.DateTerminated, NPE000.EmploymentType, NPE000.DistCode, NPE000.EmpStatus, NPET00.TaxRefNo FROM NPE000 NPE000, NPET00 NPET00 WHERE NPET00.RecordStatus = 0 and NPET00.TaxRefNo <> ' 111111111' and NPET00.TaxRefNo <> ' 000000000' AND LENGTH(NPET00.TaxRefNo) >= 9 AND LENGTH(NPE000.KR_ID) >= 0 AND NPE000.EmpNumber = NPET00.EmpNumber
Query goes as follows for table 2:
SELECT NPE000.EmpNumber, NPE000.FirstName, NPE000.Surname, NPE000.Class, NPE000.Location, NPE000.EmploymentType, NPE000.EmpStatus, NPET00.TaxRefNo, NPE000.Paypoint, NPE000.KR_ID, FROM NPE000, NPET00 WHERE Recordstatus = 0 and (EmploymentType = 1 AND EmpStatus = 1 AND NPE000.EmpNumber = NPET00.EmpNumber
From this you can see that in table 1 it will only create 1 KR_ID for only one employee number but in table 2 I am bringing through all employee records. In table 2 I can group by NPET00.TaxRefNo which will bring all NPET00.TaxRefNo's togeather. From that I would like to populate the other employee numbers with the unique KR_ID.
I have a simple query which displays items from inventory with their latest annual test date. I want to create another unique reference in my results to use as a certificate number. The number should be a combination of the item+month+year from the test date. What is the easiest way to accomplish this?
My query and my desired results are below:
select item, test_date from inventory where cat = 'TELE' and itemised_status > 15
I have an excel file that contains column A with names of components and products followed by column B which has each respective quantity on hand. I want to import that data to our website's SQL database that has a products table with a column, Pf_ID, that has only product names not component names and In_Stock which contains out-dated information that I want updated from column B of the excel file.
I think I've figured out how to use DTS and update the two fields, but I'm afraid that when everything runs new entries will be created with component information. Is it possible to specify that only rows where Pf_ID matches some row in column A that same row's column B will be used to update the data in In_Stock. I may have just made things too confusing than they need to be, but I don't have much experience with EM or Excel.
I'm also considering trying to write a macro that will match Pf_IDs in an exported excel file of the products table and take rows out of the excel file with current quantity information putting them in a new excel file to import into the website's database.
I have the following insert query which works great. The purpose of this query was to flatten out the Diagnosis codes (ex: SecDx1, SecDx2, etc.) [DX_Code field] in a table.
Code Snippet INSERT INTO reports.Cardiology_Age55_Gender_ACUTEMI_ICD9 SELECT Episode_Key, SecDX1 = [1], SecDX2 = [2], SecDX3 = [3], SecDX4 = [4], SecDX5 = [5], SecDX6 = [6], SecDX7 = [7], SecDX8 = [8], SecDX9 = [9], SecDX10 = [10], SecDX11 = [11], SecDX12 = [12], SecDX13 = [13], SecDX14 = [14], SecDX15 = [15] FROM (SELECT Episode_Key, DX_Key, ROW_NUMBER() OVER ( PARTITION BY Episode_Key ORDER BY DX_Key ) AS 'RowNumber', DX_Code FROM srm.cdmab_dx_other WHERE Episode_key is not null ) data PIVOT ( max( DX_Code ) FOR RowNumber IN ( [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15] )) pvt ORDER BY Episode_Key
The query below also works fine by itself. You may notice that the Episode_Key field appears in both the query above and below therefore providing a primary key / foreign key relationship. The srm.cdmab_dx_other table also appears in both queries. I would like to add the fields in the select statement below to the select statement above. Using the relationships in my FROM statements, can anyone help me figure this one out?

I don't immediately find if this is possible but hope someone can give me an answer: is it possible to make a unique constraint over 2 columns but only when 1 column has a specific value ?
Example: table (tableid, instancetype, instancename, ..) instancetype can be A or B if it is A then instancename must be unique but for B instancename is not unique as these are copies from A
only solution I can think of is to make a trigger on an insert to check what the instancetype is and do a select to see if the name already exists in the table or not..
are there other solutions to make a constraint like this ?
The tables are populated in the following order: One row for CallDetail, One for Call and one for Request and so on

I've managed to get my query to this: Product | Color | Votes ======== ======= ======= Bus Red 10 Bus Blue 5 Train Blue 1Car Red 1 Car Blue 1
I need the most popular color of the product based on the votes for each product, so MAX(Votes) GROUP BY Product solves the Bus and the Train, but I still need a result for the Car? Not really that bothered which Color is picked up, do I need to run another query, because I need another table to join to the results.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Pete.
Ok... I know this is something that I've seen and probably done before....
I have a value that will show up multiple times in a table. I want to order the table by that value and then count up from 1 to however many items that it shows up as.
The example below shows the results I want. Value1 and Value2 are in the table, LineNumber is what I need to generate.
I have written a merge Statement where i am facing trouble to delete the data basing on Where Clause Condition.
1) Case 1 : For example i have inserted Data from Source to Target based on Date Key Condition.Take an Instance 10 Records Inserted. 2) Case 2 : For example some changes in the records and it has been updated through the Merge Statement . 3) Case 3 : For the Same Date key based on Conditions now three records has came and need to be inserted and rest should be deleted for that Date Key.
How i need to proceed on this before 10 records are not getting deleted and new records adding for that one
My Example Code :
MERGE INTO TargetTable AS Target USING ( SELECT DISTINCT Col1, Col2 FROM Table1 AS cga ) ON dad.AnchorDate = CASE
My current report has around 40 subreports corresponding to tests executed by the user. There is a different sub report for each of the tests executed. I first developed the report by just putting the subreports directly on the main report. The problem is if some of my tests are not executed by the user I would like the subreports to not appear in the report.
I have tried doing this two different ways. First I tried creating a table and attaching that table to a dataset that I created that returns all the tests that were executed by the user. I then set up a filter that specified that the name for a specific subreport had to equal the test name. I then dropped the sub report for that particular test into the table. The idea is there would only be one row when data is available and no rows when no data is available so the subreport would not appear. When the data is available the subreport appears great. When it is not available and there is no item in the dataset for that test I get an error from SQL that states there was an internal reporting error and to check the SQL server log for more information. I know my table is set up correctly because when I replace the subreport with text the text will appear only if data is available for that test and the text does not appear if no data is available. I get no errors until I add the subreport and remove the data from the database so the filter does not return any items. Is there a reason why I would be getting this error? I am still pretty green using reporting services so I do not even understand how to get the log from the server to determine why this error is occuring.
Secondly I have tried to use an expression to hide the subreport using the visibility tab for the report. I was able to get this to work by creating a dataset that returns 1 if a specific test has been executed and no rows if not. I then created an expression that would return true if the dataset returned 1. This worked okay in hiding my subreport but I would then have to create 40 datasets, one for each test. Is there anyway to write an expression that would return true if a dataset contained a row with a specific test name? I have not been able to figure this out.
Can someone either help me fix the problem I am having with the table approach or write an expression that would work in the visibility setting for each sub report that did not require 40 datasets? Or is there another approach that I am not even thinking of that might work?

Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task1',1) Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task2',1) Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task3',1) Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task4',1) Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task5',2) Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task6',2) Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task6',2) Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task7',3)
-- New tasks
Insert into Jobs(name) values ('TaskA') Insert into Jobs(name) values ('TaskB') Insert into Jobs(name) values ('TaskC') Insert into Jobs(name) values ('TaskD') Insert into Jobs(name) values ('TaskE') Insert into Jobs(name) values ('TaskF')
This gives us 6 unassigned tasks and a uneven group assignment

[code]...
I tryed several things with CASE, IF, EXISTS,... but I had no success.
The objective is to identify orders where an order fee has been applied incorrectly. I have multiple orders per customer, my table contains an orderID and a customerID. Currently if the customer places additional orders before the previous orders have been closed/cancelled, then additional fees are being applied.
Let's say I'm comparing order #1 to order #2. I need to identify these rows where the following is true:-
The CustID is the same.
Order #2 has a more recent order date.
Order #2 has a FeeDate Before the CancelledDate of Order #1 (or Order #1 has no cancellation date).
So in the table the orderID:2835692 of CustID: 24643 has a valid order fee. But all the subsequently placed orders have fees which were applied before the first order was cancelled and so I want to update the FeeInvalid column with a 'Y'. The first fee will always be valid.
I think I understand why the code I am trying doesn't achieve the result I want but I can't figure out how to write it correctly. Below is one example of code I've tried and also code to create the table and insert some test data.
update t1 SET FeeInvalid = 'Y' FROM MockData t1 Join MockData t2 on t1.CustID = t2.CustID WHERE t1.CustID = t2.CustID AND t2.OrderDate > t1.OrderDate AND t2.FeeDate > t1.CancelledDate CREATE TABLE [dbo].[MockData]( [OrderID] [float] NULL,
