Transact SQL :: Pass Parameter To Convert Function To Format Decimal Precision Dynamically?
Nov 4, 2015
I want to change decimal precision dynamically without rounding value
For example
10.56788 value for 2 decimal precision is 10.56.
10.56788 value for 3 decimal precision is 10.567.
---CASE 1 without dynamic parameter---------
DECLARE @DECIMALVALUE AS tinyint
SELECT CONVERT(DECIMAL(10,2),500000.565356) As Amount
[Code] ....
I am getting error as follows......
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 3
Incorrect syntax near '@DECIMALVALUE'
This decimal precision format value will vary company to company ...
I am trying to convert hours and minutes to decimal and arrive at a sum of time taken. The column TotalTimeSpent is the diff in hours/mins between the Started and Ended times.
SELECT DATENAME(weekday, Started) AS Day,      C.Category,    ClientCode,Description,   dbo.FormatDateTime(Started, 'HH:MMS 12') as Started,   dbo.FormatDateTime(Ended, 'HH:MMS 12') as Ended, CONVERT(varchar,TimeTaken,108) AS TotalTimeSpentFROM dbo.Journal JLEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.Categories C ON J.CategoryID = C.CategoryIDWHERE--DATENAME(weekday, Started) =@Weekday  AND Started >= @StartDate ORDER BY Day, Category, Started
I have been given some data from a Mainframe (AS400?) which has some fields coded in Packed Decimal. I have been able to load the data into a SQL2005 database table, but I now need to convert the Packed Decimal data in the binary(6) field to the appropriate integer (or float) value.
The field contains values such as the following:-
0x20202020200C
0x202020022025
0x20202020DFFA
I don't know how to interpret these. Has anyone got a function that can do this for me?
I've read several articles online that explain how packed decimal works, but none tell me how to interpret the last of my three examples. Can you help?
So my data is delivered as numeric(9,2)...like 100.00. I have to extract that data and store it as a varchar 0 filled without the decimal place...like 0000010000///I tried the following and it did not work...
In some t-sql 2012 that I am using, I am using the following on 5 separate merge statements.
USING (select LKC.comboID,LKC.lockID,LKC.seq,A.lockCombo2,A.schoolnumber,LKR.lockerId from [LockerPopulation] A JOIN TST.dbo.School SCH ON A.schoolnumber = SCH.type
[Code] ...
What is different, is the value of LKC.seq = 1 as listed below. I am using 5 separate ctes and the only value that changes is the LKC.seq number being a value between 1 and 5. Thus can you pass a parameter value to the CTE that I just listed above? If so, show t-sql to accomplish this goal?
i have on table temp and it has column name fhID, now that column name and table name comes as parameter in stored procedure from c#. now stored procedure has code somthing like below @column nvarchar(50) @tbname nvarchar(50) -- both are parameter comes from c# decalre @maxid select @maxid=max(@column) from @tbname rather than prints the maximum values of "fhid" it prints column name itself. now i how can i achive actual working of max function using parameter. is there any other way to pass parameter in aggregate function or it is not allowed to pass.??? plz help me, thanks vishal parekh 'fhid' now how can
Hi Friends,Is it possible to pass a table as a parameter to a funtion.whos function declaration would look some thing like this....ALTER FUNCTION TempFunction (@TempTable TABLE, @nPId INT)my problem is: i have to access a temporary table created in an SP ina functionALTER PROCEDURE MySPBEGIN....DECLARE @TmpTable TABLE(...)....TempFunction(@TmpTable)....ENDThanksArunDhaJ
I'm trying to get a calculation based on count(*) to format as a decimal value or percentage.
I keep getting 0s for the solution_rejected_percent column. How can I format this like 0.50 (for 50%)?
select mi.id, count(*) as cnt, count(*) + 1 as cntplusone, cast(count(*) / (count(*) + 1) as numeric(10,2)) as solution_rejected_percent from metric_instance mi INNER JOIN incident i on i.number = mi.id WHERE mi.definition = 'Solution Rejected' AND i.state = 'Closed' group by mi.id
In the snippet below, ExecuteSqlString is a stored procedure that accepts one parameter. SelectChangeDropdownRowsource is a function in my code behind page that generates the string I want to pass. I can't seem to find the correct syntax to get it to work. The way it is show below, the error comes back about incorrect syntax near ')' . Is this doable? <asp:SqlDataSource ID="ChangeInfo" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:xxx %>" DataSourceMode="DataReader" ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:xxx %>" SelectCommandType=StoredProcedure SelectCommand="ExecuteSqlString"> <selectparameters> <asp:parameter name="sqlString" Type=String DefaultValue=SelectChangeDropdownRowsource()/> </selectparameters> </asp:SqlDataSource>
there is a column which type is float in a table, i want to set the precision of its value, for example if its value is 10.333888, i want to get its value as 10.33, how to complete it in a select Sql?
ALTER PROC [dbo].[sp_GetInvitationStatusTest] ( @invited_by NVARCHAR (50) ) AS BEGIN -- SELECT * FROM dbo.Merck_Acronym_Invitations WHERE invited_by=@invited_by select distinct t1.invited_isid as 'ISID', t1.invited_name as 'NAME',t1.invitation_status as 'STATUS',
[Code] ....
If you look at the where clause i have invited by , i get the desired output if i just provide 1 name in the execution such as exec [dbo].[sp_GetInvitationStatusTest] 'marfilj' But my requirement is to make the procedure work with more than one input variable such as exec [dbo].[sp_GetInvitationStatusTest] 'marfilj','sujith' now i should get the output for 2 people but if i run this i receive the following error Procedure or function sp_GetInvitationStatusTest has too many arguments specified.
how to make my procedure work with more than 1 input variable?
This one cost me a solid half hour yesterday. I'm wondering why onearth the default precision for a decimal type is 18,0. Maybe I'mmistaken. A decimal datatype sort of implies that you'd want somethingafter the decimal!Question is, can I set this database-wide? Like all new decimaldatatypes have a precision of 12,6 or something like that? I haven'tseen anything about this in the googling I have done...
declare @deadline Datetime = '2014-03-23 15:30:10.000' SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(30),@deadline, 100) AS DateConvert ----With this I am able to produce that like ----o/p: Mar 23 2014 3:30PM
Data is being trnasferred from an Oracle view to a SQL Server 2005 table.
Decimals can be previewed in the from the "SQL Command Text Window" but the columns in the target table which are defined as float shows the data being rounded to zero decimal places.
For the Data Source the always use default code page is selected.
I´m having some trouble converting values represented as strings to the decimal data type. I have a flat file source, from where I read some currency rates represented without decimals. Before sending those values to my SQL Server destination, I want to convert them to represent correct values.
An example to clarify:
If my source contains a column named "curr_rate" with the value 000092500 I want to send it to my destination as 9,2500.
So I set up a Dervied column component, converting my value like so:
((DT_NUMERIC,9,4)curr_rate)/10000
My problems is that the precision is lost, and all that´s sent to my destination table is 9,0000.
How should I go about to convert my strings without losing precision in the process?
I'm developing one leave application form in that I've declared "No of days"column as nvarchar type..If the user taking half(1/2) day leave then have to covert that 1/2 into 4 Â hours itseems..since I'm trying to display the table data on datagridview while displaying that half day in gridview again it has to conver 4 hours into 1.2 format..
My Table design: Â Create table Leave_Form ( Â Employee_id int primary key, Â Emp_Date date, Â Emp_name nvarchar(50),
I have a table that has a DATE field named. AccountingDate that is in the format YYYY-MM-DD. It's not a VARCHAR field. I simply want to convert this date field into the format MM/DD/YYYY and call it New_Accounting_Date.
I've played with various combinations of CAST & CONVERT but haven't been able to get it to work.
Below is my latest effort which returns the error:
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'as'
What code would work to return a MM/DD/YYYY value for New_Accounting_Date?
Select GLBATCH.AccountingDate, convert(GLBATCH.AccountingDate as date),101) AS New_Accounting_Date from GLBATCH
I would like to wrap the following code in a function and reuse it. Â I use this code in many triggers.
DECLARE @Action as char(1); SET @Action = (CASE WHEN EXISTS(SELECT * FROM INSERTED) AND EXISTS(SELECT * FROM DELETED) THEN 'U' Â -- Set Action to Updated. WHEN EXISTS(SELECT * FROM INSERTED) THEN 'I' Â -- Set Action to Insert. WHEN EXISTS(SELECT * FROM DELETED) THEN 'D' Â -- Set Action to Deleted. ELSE NULL -- Skip. It may have been a "failed delete". Â Â END)
Is it possible to write a function and pass the INSERTED and DELETED logical tables to it?
I've a SQL view performing a number of very precise calculations ie.495/(1.112 - (.00043499*((Col1 + Col2 + Col3))) + ( .00000055 * ((Col1+ Col2 + Col3)) * ((Col1 + Col2 + Col3))) - (.00028826 * Col4))) -450)/100Obviously this sometimes causes a precision issues because the floatand real datatypes don't hold precise values... My problem is thatconverting to the numeric or decimal datatype easily produces an errorif the precision is not big enough to hold the resulting output... Sohere's my questions:Does anyone see a problem with me maxing out the precision of thedecimal datatype (ie. use DECIMAL(38,8) across a couple dozeninter-related formulas?So the above code would now exec like this:495/(CONVERT(DECIMAL(38,8),1.112) -(CONVERT(DECIMAL(38,8),.00043499)*((Col1 + Col2 + Col3))) +(CONVERT(DECIMAL(38,8),.00000055) * ((Col1 + Col2 + Col3)) * ((Col1 +Col2 + Col3))) - (CONVERT(DECIMAL(38,8),.00028826) * Col4))) - 450)/100If anyone does see a problem with this approach, could you suggestanother alternative?

I have a table with 3 columns (ID Int , Name Varchar(25), Course Varchar(20))
My source data looks like below
ID     Name       Course 1       A              Java 1       A              C++ 2       B               Java 2       B              SQL Server 2       B               .Net 2       B                SAP 3       C                Oracle
My Output should look like below...
ID     Name      Course(1)    Course(2)        Course(3)    Course(4) Â
1       A                Java           C++ 2       B                Java           SQL Server .Net            SAP 3       C                Oracle
Basically need t-sql to Convert non fixed rows to non fixed columns...
Rule: IF each ID and Name have more than 1 course then show it in new columns as course(1) course(2)..Course(n)
Create SQL:
Create table Sample (ID Int null , Name Varchar(25) null, Course Varchar(20) null)
Insert SQL:
INSERT Sample (ID, Name, Course) Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â VALUES (1,'A','Java'), Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â (1,'A','C++'), Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â (2,'B','Java'), Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â (2,'B','SQL Server'), Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â (2,'B','.Net'), Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â (2,'B','SAP'), Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â (3,'C','Oracle')
I've a scalar function which is killing my performance. I've been used the SQL profiler and also DMVs to catch execution information. I'd like to store the value received by this function and also the time that it happened, but I can't think in a way to do it.
