Transact SQL :: If Not Exists Some ID In One Table Then Insert ID And Description In Another Table
Jul 14, 2015
I need to find out if a Transaction ID exists in Table A that does not exist in Table B. If that is the case, then I need to insert into Table B all of the Transaction IDs and Descriptions that are not already in. Seems to me this would involve If Not Exists and then an insert into Table B. This would work easily if there were only one row. What is the best way to handle it if there are a bunch of rows? Should there be some type of looping?
I have a question regarding saving hashtags in another table. I have two tables with these columns:
Table1 ItemId, Name, Description (it may contains several hashtags like this example "hey I am an #example of this #question")
Table2 HashtagId, ItemId, Hashtag
So I want to detect #example and #question and put them in Table2. I'd like to create a trigger for table1 that if there was a hashtag, it added a record in table 2.
CREATE TRIGGER [dbo].[tr_Events_ForInsert_Hashtag] ON Table1 FOR INSERT AS BEGIN DECLARE @ItemId bigint SELECT @ItemId = ItemId FROM inserted
I am getting info from one table, CalibrationReview, that is not inanother table, tblEquipments. SELECT EquipmentNumber, Model, SerialNumber, Make, CalLabName, CalDateFROM CalibrationReviewWHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT AssignedID FROM tblEquipments WHERE AssignedID = CalibrationReview.EquipmentNumber) Now, I need to take these rows and INSERT them into tblEquipments,but with some conditions. tblEquipments has some contraints, so, the following needs to be done: Using dbo.CalibrationReview.EquipmentNumber, get CalibrationMaster.TestTechnology where dbo.CalibrationReview.EquipmentNumber = dbo.CalibrationMaster.EquipmentID Then take CalibrationMaster.TestTechnology and read tblTestTechnology.testTechnology and get tblTestTechnology.id So, tblEquipments.testTechnology = tblTestTechnology.id OR 1 if not foundWHERE dbo.CalibrationReview.EquipmentNumber = dbo.CalibrationMaster.EquipmentID and CalibrationMaster.TestTechnology = tblTestTechnology.testTechnology And similar for CalibrationReview.CalLabName. tblEquipments.calLab = tblLabs.ID where tblLabs.LabName = CalibrationReview.CalLabName I hope this is clear as I can write this in code behind, but it'smuch better using sql simply because it's faster and only needs tobe run once. Inheriting databases and combining all of them to develop a large.Net management system is fun, huh? Thanks for any input, Zath
What is the best way to drop a temp table if it exists? I am looking something similar to this: if exists (select top 1 * from #TableName) then drop #TableName else end
I have a table that has for each shop a value that can change over time.For example
BK_POS 1 --> Segment A BK_POS 1 --> Segment /
What I would like to achieve is to get all distinct Shops (BK_POS) from the table above, but if for that specific pos a row exists where the segment = "/" then I do not want to take this BK_POS in my select query.More concrete, the for example above I do not want to select BK_POS 1 because he has one row where the segment = "/".
I have a table in different databases with the same name. My goal is to compare the two tables, and insert a record into the second table where there is not a match in the first table. So far, my query looks like the following:
SELECT [metal] FROM [ProductionDatabase].[dbo].[Metalurgy] EXCEPT SELECT [metal] FROM [TestDatabase].[dbo].[Metalurgy]
This gives me a list of records from [Production].[dbo].[Metalurgy] which do not reside in [TestDatabase].[dbo].[Metalurgy]. Now, I need to use that list to insert missing records into [TestDatabase].[dbo].[Metalurgy]. How can I modify the above code to INSERT the missing records?
Here is the steps I should take... 1- Check for the log table and find run status ( there is a date field which tells the day run) 2- Lets say last day was 2008-05-15, So I have to check A1.DDDDMMYYY file exists in the folder for each day like A1.20080516,A1.20080517 and A1.20060518 ( until today) 3- if A1.20080516 text file exist then I have to move it to the table and same thing for other dates like if A1.20080517 exists I have to load it to table and so on
it looks like for each loop, first I have to get the last date and then I have to check the file exists for each date and if the date file exists then I have to load it into table...
Please tell me How can I do it. it looks complex looping...
I want to insert the data from temp table to other table. Only condition is, it needs to sorted based on tool number and tool date. For example if we have ten records for tool number 1000, it should be order by tool number and then based on tool_dt. Both tables doesn't have any primary keys. Please find below my code. I removed all the unnecessary columns for simple understanding. INSERT INTO tool_summary (tool_nbr, tool_dt) select tool_nbr, tool_dt from #tool order by tool_nbr, tool_dt...But this query is not working as expected. Data is getting shuffled.
TABLE1 ID Roll Name Amount . . . . . . so on --------------------------------------- 1 2 Alex 500 2 5 Jones 600 3 2 Ales 400
and we have TABLE 2
ID Roll Name Amount . . . . . . . so on
In both the Tables ID Field is Identity Field and rest all the columns are identical in both the tables.I want to perform a query in such a way that SQL Should,
1) Remove all data from TABLE2 First 2) Select those records from TABLE1 where Roll = 2 3) Then, Insert the results to TABLE 2
So we should get the result similar to below:
ID Roll Name Amount . . . . . . . so on --------------------------------------- 1 2 Alex 500 3 2 Ales 400
tblPayments (Contains the records of Payments we made)
ID DATE AMOUNT BANK ---------------------------------------------------------- 1 05/05/2015 5000 Natwest 2 05/05/2015 2000 Lloyds 3 05/06/2015 3500 Natwest 4 05/07/2015 4000 Natwest 5 05/08/2015 1500 Lloyds
tblReceipts (Contains the records of Receipts we received)
ID DATE AMOUNT BANK ---------------------------------------------------------- 1 05/06/2015 5000 Natwest 2 05/06/2015 2000 Lloyds 3 05/07/2015 3500 Natwest 4 05/07/2015 4000 Natwest 5 05/08/2015 1500 Lloyds
Now, I also have a blank table (tblBankStatement) which contain the following columns
ID DATE RECEIPT PAYMENT BANK -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I want that when I execute the query, the query should INSERT the records to the New Table (tblBankStatement) from tblPayments and tblReceipts by Date Ordered in ascending way WHEREBank should be 'Natwest'.
Also the Amount Column Data in tblPayments should be Inserted into the Payment Column in tblBankStatement and the Amount Column Data in tblReceipts should be Inserted into the Receipt Column in tblBankStatement.
This is on Sybase but I'm guessing that the same situation would happen on SQL Server. (Please confirm if you know).
I'm looking at these new databases and I'm seeing code similar to this all over the place:
if not exists (select 1 from dbo.t1 where f1 = @p1) begin select @errno = @errno | 1 end
There's a unique clustered in dex on t1.f1.
The execution plan shows this for this statement:
FROM TABLE dbo.t1 EXISTS TABLE : nested iteration. Table Scan. Forward scan. Positioning at start of table.
It's not using my index!!!!!
It seems to be the case with EXISTS statements. Can anybody confirm?
I also hinted to use the index but it still didn't use it.
If the existence check really doesn't use the index, what's a good code alternative to this check?
I did this and it's working great but I wonder if there's a better alternative. I don't really like doing the SET ROWCOUNT 1 and then SET ROWCOUNT 0 thing. SELECT TOP 1 won't work on Sybase, :-(.
SET ROWCOUNT 1 SELECT @cnt = (SELECT 1 FROM dbo.t1 (index ix01) WHERE f1 = @p1 ) SET ROWCOUNT 0
I have two tables Costtable (Id,ResourceId, Amount,Date) and ResourceTable (ResourceId,Name) which shows output as below.
I want to show 0 amount for rest of the name in case of September. For e.g. if rest of the Resources does not appear in cost table they should appear 0 in amount
My Desired output
My current query
SELECT RG.Id AS Id, RG.Name AS Name, ISNULL(SUM(AC.Amount), 0) AS Amount, RIGHT(CONVERT(varchar(10), AC.[Date], 105), 7) AS [YearMonth]
i need to write a query that insert in A table if and only if the row does not exist already in the table (the source is a select statement). i tried the following:
insert into [A] select * from [B] where Not EXISTS (select * from [A])
table [A] is still empty, but it does not insert any thing! .. what i know is that the EXIST checks if the selected row exists in the subquery, ain't ?
I am still learning T-SQL .Lets consider the table below, ID 1-3 shows our purchase transactions from various Vendors and ID 4-6 shows our payments to them
Table 1 - VendorTransactions
ID PARTY AMOUNT VOUCHER --------------------------------------- 1 A 5000 Purchase 2 B 3000 Purchase 3 C 2000 Purchase
4 A 3000 Payment 5 B 1000 Payment 6 C 2000 Payment 7 A 1000 Payment
Now we have a blank table Table 2 - Liabilities
ID PARTY AMOUNT
I want that SQL should look for each individual party from Table 1 and Calculate TOTAL PURCHASE and TOTAL PAYMENTS and then deduct TOTAL PAYMENTS from TOTAL PURCHASE so we get the remaining balance due for each party and then add the DIFFERENCE AMOUNT alongwith PARTY to the TABLE 2 so I can get the desired result like below
ID PARTY AMOUNT ------------------------- 1 A 1000 2 B 2000 3 C 0
Lets say we are executing this query below to retrieve each customer and the amount associated to a table
"INSERT INTO tblReceiptDue (Dealer, Amount) SELECT CustomerName, SUM(CASE WHEN VoucherType = 'Sales' then Outbound ELSE - Inbound END) AS AMOUNT from tblSaleStatementCustomer WHERE CustomerType = 'Dealer' GROUP BY CustomerName"
Now i am trying to insert a duplicate copy test by passing testId..Here is my sp
if not EXISTS(SELECT testName from tblTest WHERE UPPER(@testName) = UPPER(@testName)) BEGIN INSERT INTO tblTest SELECT @userId, testName,duration,totalQuestion,termsCondition,0,GETUTCDATE(),GETUTCDATE() from tblTest WHERE id=@testId SET @insertedTestId=@@identity INSERT INTO tblTestQuestion SELECT @insertedTestId,question,0,GETUTCDATE(),GETUTCDATE() from tblTestQuestion WHERE testId=@testId END
how to insert in answer table as one question can be multiple answers.
Previously same records exists in table having primary key and table having foreign key . we have faced 7 records were lost from primary key table but same record exists in foreign key table.
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?
Table: classes Columns: classID, hp Table: char_active Columns: name, classID, hp
The classes table is already populated.
What I want to do is insert a new row into char_active using the name and classID column, and have the HP column auto populate based on the corresponding value in the classes table. This is the trigger I wrote but I'm getting the error
Incorrect syntax near 'inserted'.
I'm new to sql, this is actually the first trigger I've tried writing.
create trigger new_hp on curr_chars.char_active instead of insert as declare @hp tinyint select @hp=lists.classes.hp from lists.classes where lists.classes.classID=inserted.classID insert into curr_chars.char_active (name, classID, hp) inserted.name, inserted.classID, @hp go
I would like to compare values in the same table and get the single record with different values in the multiple columns.For table tab1, ID is my key column. If type1 is active (A) then i need to update X else blank on Code1 column and if type2 is active (A) then i need to update X else blank on code2 column. Both type1 and type2 comes from same table for same ID..Below is the example to understand my scenario clearly....
declare @tab1 table (ID varchar(20), dt date, status varchar(1), type varchar(10)) insert into @tab1 values ('55A', '2015-07-30', 'A', 'type1') insert into @tab1 values ('55A', '2015-07-30', 'C', 'type2') insert into @tab1 values ('55B', '2015-07-30', 'C', 'type1') insert into @tab1 values ('55B', '2015-07-30', 'A', 'type2')
Consider a 4 tables where 1 of them is considered to be as the parent class and the other 3 are sub-classes and they are disjoint so for every recored i insert in the parent class i want to also insert in one of the subclass according to a condition which checks a certain attribute in the recored that is also entered in the parent class .. how could this be done .
I'm trying to fill a temp table whose columns are the same as another table plus it has one more column. The temp table's contents are those rows in the other table that meet a particular condition plus another column that is the name of the table that is the source for the rows being added.
Example: 'permTable' has col1 and col2. The data in these two rows plus the name of the table from which it came ('permTable' in this example) are to be added to #temp.
Data in permTable col1 col2 11, 12 21, 22
Data in #temp after permTable's filtered contents have been added
I have a database which will be generated via script. However there are some tables with default data that need to exist on the database.I was wondering if there could be a program that could generate inserts statments for the data in a table.I know about the import / export program that comes with SQL but it doesnt have an interface that lets you copy the insert script and values into an SQL file (or does it?)
However the issue is with [1],[2],[3] columns. Those are the number of days of the month. If today is the 3rd day of the month, we only need to show 3 days. So the final table has column [1],[2],[3] and @AccountType and @Total .
We want to run this query everyday to get the moth to date values.If we run this tomorrow, it will have 4 date columns [1], [2],[3],[4] and @AccountType and @Total .
In a t-sql 2012 sql update script listed below, it only works for a few records since the value of TST.dbo.LockCombination.seq only contains the value of 1 in most cases. Basically for every join listed below, there should be 5 records where each record has a distinct seq value of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Thus my goal is to determine how to add the missing rows to the TST.dbo.LockCombination where there are no rows for seq values of between 2 to 5. I would like to know how to insert the missing rows and then do the following update statement. Thus can you show me the sql on how to add the rows for at least one of the missing sequence numbers?
UPDATE LKC SET LKC.combo = lockCombo2 FROM [LockerPopulation] A JOIN TST.dbo.School SCH ON A.schoolnumber = SCH.type JOIN TST.dbo.Locker LKR ON SCH.schoolID = LKR.schoolID AND A.lockerNumber = LKR.number
Begin Truncate table A Insert into A (Col1, Col2, Col3... ) Select Value1, Value2, Value3... From Table B End
The insert operation query takes approximately 3.5 minutes to execute. What's occurring is the Table is immediately truncated, and there are no rows in the table for those 3.5 minutes.
How can I avoid having this gap - where there are no rows in the table for that period of time during the job execution ? The table could be locked, but that doesn't seem like the best solution.
