I am attempting to run update statements within a SELECT CASE statement.
Select case x.field
WHEN 'XXX' THEN
 UPDATE TABLE1
  SET TABLE1.FIELD2 = 1
 ELSE
  UPDATE TABLE2
  SET TABLE2.FIELD1 = 2
END
FROM OuterTable x
I get incorrect syntax near the keyword 'update'.
I have used the below update query. However, its updating only the first value. Like its updating AB with volume when c.Type = ABC, similarly for CD. Its not updating based on the 2nd or the next case condition.
Â
Update XYZ Set AB = a.Amt * (CASE WHEN c.Type = 'ABC'Â THENÂ (c.volume)
 WHEN c.TYPE = 'DEF' THEN (c.volume)
 WHEN c.Type = 'GHI' THEN (c.volume)
 Else 0
 END),
 CD = CASE WHEN c.Type = 'MARGIN' THEN '4105.31'
 WHEN c.Type = 'ABC' THEN '123.1'
 WHEN c.Type = 'DEF' THEN '234.2'
WHEN c.Type = 'GHI' THEN '567.1'
END
 from table1 a join table2 b
 on a.Cust = b.Customer
 join table3 c
 on b.account = c.account and b.channel =c.channel
Why its not working properly? But if i use Select statement instead of update query its working properly.
I have a table A  and lookup table B.
table A:
| ID | FRUIT | VEGETABLE | GOOD |
--------------------------------------------
|  1 | orange | cabbage    |  no  |
|  1 | apple | lettuce       | yes  |
|  1 | kiwi    | broccoli     |  no  |
|  1 | pear   | kale          | yes  |
table B:
| ID | FRUIT | VEGETABLE |
-------------------------------
| 1 | apple | lettuce      |
| 2 | pear   |  kale        |
If the fruit and vegetable in table A is found in table B, then set the GOOD column = yes, else no.
This is what I have so far.
update tableA
set GOOD =
(case when tableA.id = C.id then 'yes'
else 'no'
end
)
from
(select tableA.id as id
from tableA A
left join tableB B on B.fruit = A.fruit
and B.vegetable = A.vegetable) C
i was tasked to created an UPDATE statement for 6 tables , i would like to update 4 columns within the 6 tables , they all contains the same column names. the table gets its information from the source table, however the data that is transferd to the 6 tables are sometimes incorrect , i need to write a UPDATE statement that will automatically correct the data. the Update statement should also contact a where clause
the columns are [No] , [Salesperson Code], [Country Code] and [Country Name]
i was thinking of doing
Update [tablename]
SET [No] =
CASE
WHEN [No] ='AF01' THEN 'Country Code' = 'ZA7' AND 'Country Name' = 'South Africa'
ELSE 'Null'
END
What is the best way to script this
I've been beating my head against this for a bit and haven't been able to figure this out I want to pull 1 set of values between a date time range if @Report = '1' but if @Report = 2 or 3 I want it to drop 3 of the parameters so it will pull all items. by dropping the where parameters for @BeginRangeDate and @LookOutDate and L.COLineStatus. My report works great if I go in and run Report 1 with the date parameters in the where statement and also works great for Reports 2, 3 if I REM out those 3 items in the Where statement. Here is what I currently have
CASE@Report
WHEN'1'THEN
WHEREL.RequestedShipDate>=@BeginRangeDate
ANDL.RequestedShipDate<=@LookoutDate
ANDDO.ForecastDate>=@ForecastDate

I've always been mistified why you can't use a column alias in the group byclause (i.e. you have to re-iterate the entire expression in the group byclause after having already done it once in the select statement). I'mmostly a SQL hobbiest, so it's possible that I am not doing this in the mostefficient manner. Anyone care to comment on this with relation to thefollowing example (is there a way to acheive this without re-stating theentire CASE statement again in the Group By clause?):Select 'Age' =CaseWHEN(SubmittedOn >= DATEADD(dd, - 30, GETDATE())) AND (SubmittedOn <=DATEADD(dd, - 0, GETDATE()))THEN '0-30 Days Old'WHEN(SubmittedOn >= DATEADD(dd, - 60, GETDATE())) AND (SubmittedOn <=DATEADD(dd, - 31, GETDATE())) Then '31-60 Days Old'WHEN(SubmittedOn >= DATEADD(dd, - 90, GETDATE())) AND (SubmittedOn <=DATEADD(dd, - 61, GETDATE())) Then '61-90 Days Old'WHEN(SubmittedOn <= DATEADD(dd, - 91, GETDATE())) THEN '91+ Days Old'ELSE cast(SubmittedOn as varchar(22))end,max(SubmittedOn), COUNT(SCRID) AS NbrSCRsFrom SCRViewWHERE(StatusSort < 90) ANDCustomerID = 8 andUserID = 133group byCaseWHEN(SubmittedOn >= DATEADD(dd, - 30, GETDATE())) AND (SubmittedOn <=DATEADD(dd, - 0, GETDATE()))THEN '0-30 Days Old'WHEN(SubmittedOn >= DATEADD(dd, - 60, GETDATE())) AND (SubmittedOn <=DATEADD(dd, - 31, GETDATE())) Then '31-60 Days Old'WHEN(SubmittedOn >= DATEADD(dd, - 90, GETDATE())) AND (SubmittedOn <=DATEADD(dd, - 61, GETDATE())) Then '61-90 Days Old'WHEN(SubmittedOn <= DATEADD(dd, - 91, GETDATE())) THEN '91+ Days Old'ELSE cast(SubmittedOn as varchar(22))endOrder by max(submittedon) descThanks,Chad
View 4 Replies View RelatedIn the below query, I can get the individual/single group by columns as well as multiple but I cannot control the order in which I would like to group by the data.
So lets say I want to group the data by OS->browser->browser_version(just one example) then I cannot achieve that as the order of OS column comes later in the query.
I know one option would be to write a dynamic SQL but i dont want to do that because of performance reasons. Any other way this can be achieved?

Is it possible to combine a CASE statement with two different columns to retrieve data into one result column? In one column it has multiple JobCode, but this needs to be divided. The only way I can see to do this is take the data from another column to get the results.Ex. JobCode - has one code for several job descriptions (there are about 30), but all within this code cannot have the same level of access. So I need to divide them out, and put them in one column for AccessLevel.Â
 JobTitle - has one code for one job, (but there are over 100).I want to pull from both columns to get the results I need to assign appropriate access level in one column.
Case JobCode    (they all have same job code, but everyone in this job code should not have same access)
When '45' Then '1' (Principal, Asst. Prin, or any Administrator, Counselors)
When '25' Then '2' (this could be teacher, etc. )     Â
Case JobTitle  (this is how access should be)
       When '12345' Then '1' (this is Administration only)Â

I am trying to add the letters 'MS' in front of value while using a case statement. If Dispo = 2 I want it to pull back 'Inactive', else I want it to pull back the Value with MS in front (eg. "MS14"). The data in the value column are numbers. Would I use a CONCAT? If so where does that need to go?
Case when dispo = 2 then 'Inactive' else cast(Value as varchar(11)) end ,
below is my original query
select Value = count(*) from dbo.testÂ
I have 20 rows in dbo.test so i will get 20 as my output, now i need to write a case statement here such that when count(*) = 0 then it should display text filed 'NO Data' else it should display the count.

I need to perform an update where there are multiple scenarios which determine the value that is entered. Below is a sort've psuedo code of how it needs to be.

Is it possible to use CASE statement with INSERT /UPDATE statement?this is what i am trying to do
i have a table like this
Field1 Field2 Field3 FieldType1 FieldType2 FieldType3
1-when there is no data for a given combination of Field2 and Field3,i need to do "insert".i.e the very first time and only time
2-Second time,when there is already a row created for a given combination of Field2 and Field3,i would do the update onwards from there on.
At a time value can be present for only one of the FieldType1,FieldType2,FieldType3) for insert or update
I am passing a parameter to the stored procedure,which needs to be evaluated and wud determine,which field out of (FieldType1,FieldType2,FieldType3)has a value for insert or update .this is what i am trying to do in a stored procedure

Below is the SQL Query i am currently having
SELECT IG_FinancialTransactionSummary.ClaimNum,IG_FinancialTransactionSummary.TransactionCode,
IG_FinancialTransactionSummary.TransactionDate,IG_FinancialTransactionSummary.Username,
FinancialTransactionSummaryTest.ClaimNum,FinancialTransactionSummaryTest.TransactionAmount,
FinancialTransactionSummaryTest.UserName--,FinancialTransactionSummaryTest.TransactionDate
[Code] ....
And here is the result dataset
ClaimNumTransactionDateUsername ClaimNum TransactionAmountUserName

[Code] .....
So,if we look at the result set, we notice 2 conditions where the IG_FinancialTransactionSummary.Username is like 'Data' and if we see the transaction date then sometimes that is the max transaction date or sometimes there are transactions that happened after but that doesn't have like '%data%' in username . So, i need to add a new column to my sql query which should basically verify if the username is like '%data%' and if that is the max(transaction date) or even if there are any transactions after that doesn't have like '%data%' then YES else No.
I have a situation where I want to update a column if and only if it is null.
UPDATE Employee
SET VEmployeeID = CASE WHEN E.VEmployeeID IS NULL
THEN ves.VEmployeeID
END
FROM Employee E
INNER JOIN VEmployeeStaging VES
ON E.EID= VES.EID
But what happens is when I run the procedure every other time I run it, it changes everything to null. The other times it puts the VEmployeeID in.
So what is happening is the times when it is not null (where it is not supposed to do anything) it puts a null in. The next time it works.
I have a a Group By query which is working fine aggregating records by city. Â Now I have a requirement to focus on one city and then group the other cities to 'Other'. Â Here is the query which works:

St. Louis 1000
Kansas City 800
Columbia 700
Jefferson City 650

From [Output-MarketAnalysis]
Where [City] IN ('St. Louis','Kansas City','Columbia', 'Jefferson City','Joplin') AND [Status] = 'Active'

Other Missouri City 800

I have a stored proc that contains an update which utilizes a case statement to populate values in a particular column in a table, based on values found in other columns within the same table. The existing update looks like this (object names and values have been changed to protect the innocent):
UPDATE dbo.target_table
set target_column =
case
when source_column_1= 'ABC'then 'XYZ'
when source_column_2= '123'then 'PDQ'
[Code] ....
The powers that be would like to replace this case statement with some sort of table-driven structure, so that the mapping rules defined above can be maintained in the database by the business owner, rather than having it embedded in code and thus requiring developer intervention to perform changes/additions to the rules.
The rules defined in the case statement are in a pre-defined sequence which reflects the order of precedence in which the rules are to be applied (in other words, if a matching value in source_column_1 is found, this trumps a conflicting matching value in source_column_2, etc). A case statement handles this nicely, of course, because the case statement will stop when it finds the first "hit" amongst the WHEN clauses, testing each in the order in which they are coded in the proc logic.
What I'm struggling with is how to replicate this using a lookup table of some sort and joins from the target table to the lookup to replace the above case statement. I'm thinking that I would need a lookup table that has column name/value pairings, with a sequence number on each row that designates the row's placement in the precedence hierarchy. I'd then join to the lookup table somehow based on column names and values and return the match with the lowest sequence number, or something to that effect.
When I run this update statement, it updates the proper badgenumbers but it only updates them to 1 when I did a count? As the data displays some of the results should be more than 1. Why did this occur?
Declare
@count int,
@Assignment varchar(100),
@fullname varchar(100),

In the following t-sql 2012 merge statement, the insert statement works but the update statement does not work. I know that is true since I looked at the results of the update statement:
Merge TST.dbo.LockCombination AS LKC1
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] ...
Thus can you show me some t-sql 2012 that I can use to make update statement work in the merge function?
In t-sql 2012, data is obtained from [Inputtb].lockCombo1 where it is defined as varchar(8). The data is copied to test.dbo.LockCombination.combo where the field is defined as varchar(8). This copies all the data except the last right column.
Basically a value that is '12-34-56' intially from [Inputtb].lockCombo1 ends on in st.dbo.LockCombination.combo looking like
'12-34-5'. In this case the last value of '6' is missing. I have tried to use various string functions to obtain the entire value that should be  '12-34-56' and ends up looking like '12-34-5'.
Here are 2 sqls that I have used and I get the same results:
1.
UPDATE LKC
SET LKC.combo = lockCombo1
FROM [Inputtb] 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 =
[Code] ....
I can not change the definition of the columns since these are production settings.
Thus can you should me modified sql that will end up with the entire value of 8 characters in the [Inputtb].lockCombo1 column?
