I am still new to SQL and I am having trouble obtaining the results I need from a query. I have worked on this command for some time and searched the internet but cannot seem to still get it correct.
I have a table called Patient. It's primary key is pat_id.
I have a second table called Coverage. It has no primary key. The foreign keys are pat_id, coverage_plan_id, and hosp_status.
I have a third table called Coverage_History. It has a primary key consisting of pat_id, hosp_status, copay_priority, and effective_from.
I want to get the pat_id and all the coverage information that is current. The coverage table contains specific insurance policy information. The coverage_history table will indicate the effective dates for the coverage. So the tables could contain something like this:
Patient (pat_id and lname) P123 Monto P124 Minto P125 Dento P126 Donto
Coverage (pat_id, coverage_plan_id, hosp_status, policy_num) P123 MED1 OP A1499 P123 ACT4 OP H39B P124 MED1 OP C90009 P124 RAC OP 99KKKK P124 RAC OP 99KKKK P124 MED1 OP C90009 P125 ARP OP G190 P126 BCB OP H88
Coverage_History (pat_id, hosp_status, copay_priority, effective_from, coverage_plan_id, effective_to) P123 OP 1 20150102 MED1 NULL P123 OP 2 20150102 ACT4 NULL P124 OP 1 20150203 RAC 20150430 P124 OP 2 20150203 MED1 20150430 P124 OP 1 20150501 MED1 NULL P124 OP 2 20150501 RAC NULL P125 OP 1 20150801 ARP NULL P126 OP 1 20150801 BCB 20160101
select p.pat_id, p.lname, ch.coverage_plan_id, ch.hosp_status, ch.effective_from, ch.effective_to, ch.copay_priority, from patient p left join ( coverage_history ch left join coverage c on ch.coverage_plan_id = c.coverage_plan_id and ch.patient_id = c.patient_id and (ch.effective_to is NULL or ch.effective_to >= getdate() ) ) on ch.patient_id = p.patient_id
where ( ch.effective_to is NULL or ch.effective_to >= getdate() )
So I want to see:
P123 Monto MED1 OP 20150102 NULL 1 P123 Monto ACT4 OP 20150102 NULL 2 P124 Minto MED1 OP 20150501 NULL 1 P124 Minto RAC OP 20150501 NULL 2 P125 Dento ARP OP 20150801 NULL 1 P126 Donto BCB OP 20150801 20160101 1
I have to join two tables and i need to fetch All records from @tab2 and only max date record from @tab1 that ID is present in Tab2
1.) @Tab1 have multiple records for each ID
2.) @Tab2 also have multiple records for each ID
3.) Kind of Lef Outer join those tables with ID and take all records from @tab2 and only Max of date from @tab1 and order by ID and Date
Note: @Tab1 always have lesser dates than @tab2 for each ID
Tables looks like as follows
declare @tab1 table (id varchar(3), effDt Date, rate int) insert into @tab1 values ('101','2013-12-01',5) insert into @tab1 values ('101','2013-12-02',2) insert into @tab1 values ('101','2013-12-03',52)
[code]....
In the given ex, ID 103 should not come as it is not present in @tab2, ID 104 should come even it is not present in @tab1 as we ahve to use left outer join Result should like follows.
I am tying to join tables to get the result but it is not showing any data,i have shipping address column in both tables I want to show data in single column I don't know how to display.
select r1.ProductID,r1.ProductName,r1.PMNO ,r.ShippingInfo,r.ShippingAddress ,rs.ShippingAddress from R2InventoryTable r1 inner join RecycleComponents1Table r on r1.ProductID=r.ProductID inner join ReSaleorReStock1Table rs on r1.ProductID=rs.ProductID where r1.HazMat='No' order by ProductID
If I join two tables it is showing data
select r1.ProductID,r1.ProductName,r1.PMNO ,r.ShippingInfo,r.ShippingAddress from R2InventoryTable r1 inner join RecycleComponents1Table r on r1.ProductID=r.ProductID
I want a query to join all this tables based on EmployeeID, PeriodID and LeaveTypeID sum of LeaveEntitlement.LeaveEntitlementDaysNumber based on LeaveTypeID AS EntitleAnnaul and AS EntitleSick and sum AssignedLeave.AssignedLeaveDaysNumber based on LeaveTypeID AS AssignedAnnaul and AS AssignedSick and subtract EntitleAnnaul from AssignedAnnual based on LeaveTypeID AS AnnualBalance and subtract EntitleSick from AssignedSick based on LeaveTypeID AS SickBalance
and the table should be shown as below after executing the query
I was writing a query using both left outer join and inner join. And the query was ....
SELECT S.companyname AS supplier, S.country,P.productid, P.productname, P.unitprice,C.categoryname FROM Production.Suppliers AS S LEFT OUTER JOIN (Production.Products AS P INNER JOIN Production.Categories AS C
[code]....
However ,the result that i got was correct.But when i did the same query using the left outer join in both the cases
i.e..
SELECT S.companyname AS supplier, S.country,P.productid, P.productname, P.unitprice,C.categoryname FROM Production.Suppliers AS S LEFT OUTER JOIN (Production.Products AS P LEFT OUTER JOIN Production.Categories AS C ON C.categoryid = P.categoryid) ON S.supplierid = P.supplierid WHERE S.country = N'Japan';
The result i got was same,i.e
supplier country productid productname unitprice categorynameSupplier QOVFD Japan 9 Product AOZBW 97.00 Meat/PoultrySupplier QOVFD Japan 10 Product YHXGE 31.00 SeafoodSupplier QOVFD Japan 74 Product BKAZJ 10.00 ProduceSupplier QWUSF Japan 13 Product POXFU 6.00 SeafoodSupplier QWUSF Japan 14 Product PWCJB 23.25 ProduceSupplier QWUSF Japan 15 Product KSZOI 15.50 CondimentsSupplier XYZ Japan NULL NULL NULL NULLSupplier XYZ Japan NULL NULL NULL NULL
and this time also i got the same result.My question is that is there any specific reason to use inner join when join the third table and not the left outer join.
I'm trying to write an SQL query for an application i'm writing to query a relational database. The tables i'm trying to query contain foreign keys to other tables and these fields are optional. my problem..... Take the following tables as a simplified example ------------------ [TABLE1] [PK] ID Description Date [FK] Type_ID ----------------- [TABLE2] [PK] Type_ID Type_Description -----------------
Now the field "Type_ID" is optional in the first table and so by default is NULL. So when I want to write a query that returns the related data stored in both tables that looks like this.... SELECT * FROM TABLE1, TABLE2 WHERE TABLE1.Type_ID = TABLE2.Type_ID and TABLE1.ID = @inputParam
But if the FK in TABLE1 is NULL then it will return no rows.
Is there a SQL Server SQL function that I can use to conquer this?
I've following query which display the result as required, but I need to get the missing Primary Key Values which are not available in the result:
SELECTA.SignedByUserID, B.FullName, COUNT(A.OutletID) AS TotalSignups, DATENAME(Month, A.SignupDate) AS Month FROMdbo.tblMer_Outlet AS A LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.tblGen_Users AS B ON A.SignedByUserID = B.UserID WHERE(A.SignupDate >= '2014-04-01 00:00:00' AND A.SignupDate <= '2014-04-30 23:59:59') GROUP BY A.SignedByUserID, B.FullName, DATENAME(Month, A.SignupDate)
This Query returns the following result:
SignedByUserID FullName TotalSignups Month -------------------------------------------------------- 9 Babu Raj 16 April 11 Faheem 19 April 39 Fasil Abbas 16 April 29 Hafiz Suleman 10 April
[code]....
which does not have a signup for the month of April, but I need it to be available for this or any upcoming month. I need this orr all users, which does not exists in the context needs to be displayed in the result.
I have a database column that stores a comma delimited list of foreignkeys. Would someone show me how to do a join using the values from alist stored within a record?For example, a record in tbl_cds.genre_id might have a value of "2,5, 6" corresponding to genre_ids 2 , 5 and 6. I want to jointbl_cds.genre_id to tbl_genre.genre_id using the values in that datafield.It seems I need a loop like this:SELECT * FROM tbl_cdsWHEREBegin Looptbl_cds.genre_id[i] = tbl_genre.genre_idEnd Loop.Would someone give me the correct syntax?Is there an alternative method that would create less overhead?Sorry for such a novice post.
I am seeing untrusted foreign key in one of my tables in a dev environment. To fix it I tried to run
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[TableName] WITH CHECK CHECK CONSTRAINT [ForeignKey]
But I am getting the below error
The ALTER TABLE statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY constraint "foreignkey". The conflict occurred in database " DBname", table "dbo.tablename", column 'columnname'.
suppose if we do not have FK then what kind of advantage we could not avail. we can fetch data from two table by creating a relation in sql.....then why FK is required.
In a special request run, I need to update locker and lock tables in a sql server 2012 database, I have the following 2 table definitions:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Locker]( [lockerID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [schoolID] [int] NOT NULL, [number] [varchar](10) NOT NULL, [lockID] [int] NULL CONSTRAINT [PK_Locker] PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED
[Code] ....
The locker table is the main table and the lock table is the secondary table. I need to add 500 new locker numbers that the user has given to me to place in the locker table and is uniquely defined by LockerID. I also need to add 500 new rows to the corresponding lock table that is uniquely defined in the lock table and identified by the lockid.
Since lockid is a key value in the lock table and is uniquely defined in the locker table, I would like to know how to update the lock table with the 500 new rows. I would then like to take value of lockid (from lock table for the 500 new rows that were created) and uniquely place those 500 lockids uniquely into the 500 rows that were created for the lock table.
I have sql that looks like the following so far:
declare @SchoolID int = 999 insert into test.dbo.Locker ( [schoolID], [number]) select distinct LKR.schoolID, A.lockerNumber FROM [InputTable] A JOIN test.dbo.School SCH ON A.schoolnumber = SCH.type and A.schoolnumber = @SchoolNumber JOIN test.dbo.Locker LKR ON SCH.schoolID = LKR.schoolID AND A.lockerNumber not in (select number from test.dbo.Locker where schoolID = @SchoolID) order by LKR.schoolID, A.lockerNumber
I am not certain how to complete the rest of the task of placing lockerid uniquely into lock and locker tables? Thus can you either modify the sql that I just listed above and/or come up with some new sql that will show me how to accomplish my goal?
I've attempted to identify a primary and foreign key in these two tables, but I am getting a bunch of errors re duplicate keys and column names needing to be unique.Perhaps the primary and foreign key I have identified don't meet the criteria?
CREATE TABLE StockNames ( -- Added Primary key to [stock_symbol] [stock_symbol] VARCHAR(5) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT PK_stock_symbol PRIMARY KEY, [stock_name] VARCHAR(150) NOT NULL, [stock_exchange] VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
I have question about the size of foreign key’s in sql-server 2012. If I in one table had a foreign key of the “INT” type. Do it still cost 4 bytes of storage?
I have an issue where i am mandated to enforce RI on an applications database (a good thing). but I have several common lookup tables where many of the "codes" reside for many different code types. I also have the mandate that i cannot change the underlying DDL to make composite keys to match the codes table PK. I am currently looking at creating indexed views on top of the Codes table to seperate the logical tables it contains. This is several hundred views.
I do know that I do not want to write several hundred triggers to enforce RI. Table schema below, the CdValue column is the column that is used throughout the hundreds of tables that use this codes table, and their corresponding column is not named the same.
CREATE TABLE dbo.CodesTable ( PartyGrpId INT NOT NULL , CdTyp VARCHAR ( 8 ) NOT NULL , CompId INT NOT NULL , CdValue VARCHAR ( 8 ) NOT NULL , CdValueDesc VARCHAR ( 255 ) NULL , AltValueDesc VARCHAR ( 100 ) NULL
[Code] ....
I did though run into one forum where a person brought up a great idea. Filtered Foreign Keys, what a novel concept, if it could work it would make so much less code to fix an issue like this.
ALTER TABLE dbo.BusinessStatus WITH NOCHECK ADD CONSTRAINT FK_dbo_BusinessStatus_CodesTable FOREIGN KEY (LoanStsDtCd) REFERENCES dbo.CodesTable (CdValue) WHERE CdTyp = 'Status'
hi. How to update FormA table from customer table. Let say i wish to keep small number of fields from each table so i use foreign keys as reference. However i had a problem when i tried to save the relationships of both tables, i receive the error that FormA_id is not able to insert null into value. Cust_id(PK) is identify column, as well FormA_id(FK) and FormA_id(PK) too. For example, when i insert a record from customer table, it will automatically create id for FormA. Table structure. Customer cust_id(PK),name,age,formA_id(FK) Table structure, FormA formA_id(PK), info, date, How to solve ?
now, when in insert a row in "TV" the foreign key "IdCamera" will relate to a row in either "InfraredCamera" or in "DaylightCamera" depending on the "DeviceType" value.
in other words, if i insert a row with DeviceType=0, then IdCamera will have to point to a row in the "InfraredCamera" table. And if i insert a row with DeviceType=1, then IdCamera will have to point to a row in the "DaylightCamera" table.
so, my question is, how can i make the constraints relationship so that the idCamera relates to a row in DaylightCamera or in InfraredCamera depending on the value of DeviceType? should i make 2 foreign keys with allow null? or should i place both relationships to the same foreign key? im not sure what to do
Thanks guys for your help. it is really appreciated!
How to delete records from multiple tables if main table’s entity is deleted as constraints is applied on all..There is this main table called Organization or TblOrganization.and this organization have branches which are in Brach table called tblBranch and this branch have multiple applications let say tblApplication and these application are used by multiple users called tblUsers.What I want is: when I delete the Organization All branches, application and users related to it must be deleted also.How I can apply that on a button click in asp.net web forms..Right now this is my delete function which is very simple
Public void Delete(int? id){ var str=”DELETE FROM tblOrganization WHERE organizationId=”+ id ; } And My tables LOOK LIKE this CREATE TABLE tblOrganization ( OrganizationId int, OrganizationName varchar(255)
I am trying to query the database to get me the foreign key columns and the tables they belong to.I have: The name of the tableI need:The name of the column in the target tableThe name of the column in the referenced tableThe name of the referenced table Any help would be great, thanks
Hi, I don't know if this is possible, i believe not, so I'm here to ask the experts if is possible to have a foreign key constraint that references the key of one of two tables. Like this: I have 3 tables: TABLE X, TABLE A and TABLE B Is it possible to the FK on TABLE X refernce the PK of TABLE A OR TABLE B? If yes, how can I do this? If not, I need to have a fourth table, so TABLE X references TABLE A and TABLE Y references TABLE B. Thanks!
I have a setup with a bridge table. There are about 5 different tables on one side of the bridge (all with compatable PK columns) one of which is called 'mobilesub', and one on the other side called 'allcostcenters'. The bridge table is called 'subaccountcostcenter'.
I can enter data for mobilesub in the bridge table. But then when I try to enter the info into the bridge table for any of the other tables, such as localsub, there is a conflict like this:
INSERT statement conflicted with TABLE FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_subaccountcostcenter_mobilesub'. The conflict occurred in database 'test1', table 'mobilesub'. The statement has been terminated.
Is there some rule against using a bridge table that references several different tables, and I'm just not aware of it. Because I've done everything I can to make sure the info from the different tables don't conflict . . . The same error comes up if I do the localsub table first--in that case the foriegn key messing me up is FK_subaccountcostcenter_localsub. So it's not something with the individual tables.
I know altering the schema of system tables is a big no-no, but I was wondering if setting up a table that has foreign keys pointing to a system table is bad.
Basically what I'm refering to is in some cases I have CreationDate and CreatedBy fields in my tables that correspond to GETDATE() and USER_NAME() functions in insert statements....I want the CreatedBy field to be a valid SQL server DB username ... and not some unchecked string value (SYSNAME actually)
I was trying a joining example provided in my book in which customer is a table and person is another table. The query provided in the book is this... USE AdventureWorks2012;
GO SELECT c.CustomerID, c.PersonID, p.BusinessEntityID, p.LastName FROM Sales.Customer AS c INNER JOIN Person.Person AS p ON c.PersonID = p.BusinessEntityID;
This is the query that I did....
SELECT c.CustomerID,p.FirstName,p.MiddleName,p.LastName FROM Sales.Customer AS c INNER JOIN Person.Person AS p ON c.CustomerID=p.BusinessEntityID
ORDER BY p.BusinessEntityID;
Keys :-
Person Table [PK_Person_BusinessEntityID] [FK_Person_BusinessEntity_BusinessEntityID]
However,both of them gives a very different result set.But my question is why do we need to use the Customer.PersonID instead of Customer.CustomerID. Is it really important to use one primary key and one foreign,is there any specific reason why the book showed c.personId=p.BusinessEntityId.??
Hey everyone, I am beggining in SQL and the .NET framework and have been running into some problems trying to design a relational database. I am completely new to it so I bought a book that was recommended in this Forum called "Handbook of Relational Database Design" and it has been pretty usefull so far. RIght now I am trying to make the Logical Data Model before I make the Relational Data Model. The problem that I am having right now is creating a table that is a derivation from another table. For example, in the book they have a table called Property, and then two other tables called MountainProperty and BeachProperty. MountainProperty and BeachProperty are a type (relationship here) of a property. So basically Property will hold some data in a table, and then MountainProperty and BeachProperty will extend that property to contain more specific data. This is very similar to what I want to do. However I am having a problem understanding how an instance (or row) in Property, will have a link (foreign key) to a piece of data that is in Mountain or BeachProperty. I understand the foreign key in Mountain and BeachProperty and how they will link back to their "parent". But how will Property know its children, where is the link for that, how can one make a link to that. You could make a column with a foreign key, but which table would it point to, can one column point to mulitple tables? That doesn't make very much sense to me. Basically what I am trying to say is that a row in the Property table can be multiple types, and these types will store more additional data about that row. How can I link to that data from that row in the Table Property. I am terribly sorry if this is confusing or if it is so appartently easy for you, but this is the first time that I have ever tried to make a relational database and I am really struggling on seeing how to organize these tables properly. Thank yor for your time. Jeremy
I have a situation that I must resolve. I have a program being used by many but I had to create a new table to provide a new feature. The problem I have is this table must use the primary key from the parent table as its primary key, meaning when a user adds a new record to parent table, I need to instantly add the primary key to the child table. Now this was done in the program using sql statements, but I need to implement a trigger or such as to keep me from having to reinstall application on many computers.
basically person inserts new record, then I need to get the new primary ket and add insert it into the child tables. how can I do this with a trigger. I have tried to use an insert into statment with my trigger, but I can't seem to pass the parameters correctly.
CREATE Trigger dbo.Table_Borrower_Insert_Keys ON Table_Borrower AFTER INSERT AS begin declare @bid as int
@bid = select MAX(BorrowerID) FROM Table_SoldProgression
INSERT Table_SoldProgression(BorrowerID) values (@bid) end GO
another attempt
CREATE Trigger dbo.Table_Borrower_Insert_Keys ON Table_Borrower AFTER INSERT AS
I have 600 tables in my database, out of which 40 tables are look up value tables. I want generate truncate scripts which truncates all the tables in order of Parent child relationship excluding lookup tables. Is there any way to do this apart from figuring out Parent Child relationship and then writing the truncate statements for each of the table.
For example
EmployeeDetail table references Employee table DepartmentDetail table references Department table Department table references Employee table
Hi all, In my project i will have the data in a collection of objects, I need to update series of tables with foreign key relations Right now my code looks like this foreach(object obj in Objects){ int accountId=Account.Insert(obj.accountOpenDate,obj.accountName);//this will update the accounts table and returns account id which is a Identity column in Acccounts table int DebtId=Debt.Insert(accountd,obj.debtamount,obj.debtbalance); this will update the Debts table and returns DebtId ///series of tables like above but all the relevant data comes from obj and in the Insert Methods i am using stored procedures to Insert the data into table } The no of objects varies from 1000 to 1 milliion,, with this approach its taking more time to update all the data. Please let me know if any alternative procedure to handle this kind of scenario.
