I need to update the price of one row based on another. In this case it takes the price from a sku which has a value in the "ShadowOf" field. Shadow Of is a parent sku. It takes the parent sku price, adds 2% and applies it to the child sku. It's all working well except I'm not sure how to handle it when a parent has more than one child. It updates the first & sets the rest to null.Enclosed is the sample data + query.
DECLARE @tmpTable TABLE(ID NVARCHAR(50), BuyDotComPrice DECIMAL(18,2), ShadowOf NVARCHAR(50), CompanyID INT);
INSERT INTO @tmpTable VALUES
('ALPINE SWR823D', 99.99, '', 344),
('APPLE IPAD2GN16GBWFWRB', 99.99, '', 344),
[code]....
The query below brings up a set of data below that. All items are valued at $9.99. If a row has any information in the column "ShadowOf", I want to update that row. It should take the price from the row where the contents of shadowof appear & add 2%. To give an example 'GreenApples' is a shadow of 'BoxOfApples'. 'BoxOfApples' is valued at $9.99, so I want to make 'GreenApples' $10.19. How would I do this?
DECLARE @tmpTable TABLE(ID NVARCHAR(50), BuyDotComPrice DECIMAL(18,2), ShadowOf NVARCHAR(50), CompanyID INT);
INSERT INTO @tmpTable VALUES
('BoxOfApples', 9.99, '', 344),
('GreenApples', 9.99, 'BoxOfApples', 344),
('GalaApples', 9.99, 'BoxOfApples', 344),
('CaseOfSoda', 9.99, '12Sodas', 344),
('12Sodas', 9.99, '', 344),

Here is my situation;I have two tables in a MS-SQL DB. One table with dollar amounts and servicecodes. I have a second table that I want to move some information into fromthe first table. The catch is I want to move one field as is from the firsttable to the second, but the rest of the fields in the second table arecalculations based on fields in the first table.The first table is called XFILE. It has fields SVCCODE, PRICE, DWAGES,DMATLS, etc. The second table has the same field names and I want to movethe SVCCODE from XFILE to Cost_Percent with no changes. For DWAGES in theCost_Percent table I want to do the following calculation;[ XFILE.DWAGE] divided by [XFILE.PRICE] and put the results in Cost_Percenttable DWAGES fieldSo basically I am putting a percent in the Cost_Percent table. I can movethe data from one table to another ok, but I can not figure out how to writethe query in the Query Analyzer to do this.I am ruining SQL2000 Standard on a Win2K3 server. I am using Query Analyzerand SQL Enterprise Manager from an XP-Pro WS.I have looked in the 'Books On-Line' for the answer but I sort of new to SQLand can't find the answer that I am sure is staring me in the face.Thanks in advance for any help.Mike Charneym charney at dunlap hospital dot org

DDL/DML below
I want to update the startdate column (for all rows) so that when period is 0 then the new value
is a hardcoded value (say '01-Dec-2000') but for all other rows it takes the value in the
enddate column for the row of the previous column (with the same freq)
ie the startdate column for period 1 takes the enddate value for period 0 and so on for a particular freq
create table #periods (period int , startdate datetime , [enddate] datetime , freq int)
insert #periods ( period , startdate , enddate , freq)
select 0 , '01-Jan-1900' , '31-Jan-2001' , 1

Hi all
I was wondering if it was possible to update a table based off of information from Excel. here is what I though would have worked.
update MyTest Set acctNumber='111' FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Excel 8.0;Database=C:MyFile.xls;HDR=YES', 'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]') where [ProductGroup]='Hal Butts'
with 'Update MyTest' being the table name. It does have the same name as the excel file. Just to rule that out.
It gives me this error
Ambiguous column name 'ProductGroup'.
If it is possible what is the correct syntax??

the following criteria.
i have the selection all done but am trying to figure out how to do the following:
if column4 < 0 then add column4 to column3, move 0 to column4;
if column3 < 0 then add column3 to column2, move 0 to column3;
if column2 < 0 then add column2 to column1, move 0 to column2;
add column3 to column4;
move column2 to column3;
move column1 to column2;
if column0 > 0 move column0 to column1, move 0 to column0 else move 0 to column1;
these are all numeric data types.
I have a large website with over 100,000 images and the location of the images are stored in a column (img_url) as below:
/images/imagename.jpg
Because all these images are stored in the same folder it is hard to manage so we want to store each image under a directory based on the 1st letter of the image name, ie:
/images/a/aimage.jpg
/images/b/bimage.jpg
I can automate the physical move of the images into the correct directory but I need SQL update query that will update each column based on the 1st letter of the image.
So:
/images/aimage.jpg
/images/bimage.jpg
Updated to:
/images/a/aimage.jpg
/images/b/bimage.jpg

3)prodrecddt should be after AWAREDT and before Invcomleteddt (incidents table)

Hi,
I have a table with eight (8) fields, including the primary key (rfpid). Three of the fields are foreign keys, which take their values form lookup tables. They are int fields (pmid, sectorid, officeid). One of the fields in this table is based on putting together the descriptive field in the lookup table for sector (tblsector). The two other fields to be part of this string are the rfpname and rfpid. This creates the following string:
rfpsector_nameproposalscurrent_year
fpname_08_rfpid
NOTE:
The words rfp, proposals are words that have to be part of string;
the slashes are to also appear.
current_year would be defaulting to datepart = year (2008)
The part that has the last two digits of the current year then the underscore and then the rfpid should be connected by an underscore to the rfpname.
I am at a loss and would greatly appreciate any help.
Thanks
Each row of my datagrid comes from two tables, A and B, which are (left) joined: not every row from table A has a corresponding row in table B. I think this is quite a common scenario.If I want to edit a row in my datagrid which contains data from both Table A and Table B then presumably I can just use an UPDATE statement behind the scenes.But what happens if I want to edit a particular row in the datagrid which contains data from Table A but no corresponding data from table B? I can't use an UPDATE statement because the record in Table B doesn't yet exist. So what do I do?Does anyone know the answer to this, or could you point me to a good tutorial please?

Hi guys,
I need to update one table in database A based on the other database B, which is on a romote server. The requirement is to update it automatically at 12:00 in the mid-night everyday. Database A is MS SQL Server 7, and database B is Oracle database.
What's the best to implement it? I thinking to use trigger, am I right?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

I have a table that needs to be updated with a sequential number based on criteria.
I am trying to update the SeqID and LinkSeqID with the same sequential number if the ProductID and StoreID are in the same group. For instance the 1st three rows below are in the same group 752534 and 4, therefore the SeqID and LinkSeqID should be 1,2,3 and restart at 1 once the grouping of ProductID and StoreID changes. Please look at the examples below.
SALES Table as IS:
======================================
ProductID StoreID DBRowID SeqID LinkSeqID
======================================
752534 4 1
752534 4 2
752534 4 3
896784 2 4
896784 2 5
896784 4 6
898874 2 7
898968 2 8
This is what the table should look like after the update in complete.
SALES after UPDATE:
======================================
ProductID StoreID DBRowID SeqID LinkSeqID
======================================
752534 4 1 1 1
752534 4 2 2 2

IE Sum WRK = 486 so 180 is 37.037 percentage. Each HRSCODE hours total should total 100% (37.037 + 61.728)
I can write a query to do this individually but how can I so this as a query for the full table.
Code:
declare @@total as float
set @@total=(select SUM(hours) from tmsuser.tmswrhrs where hrscode='worked' and empref='001' and '2014-09-01 00:00:00.000'=procdate)

I'm confuse with the update joining both tables. I tried this, but obviously has an error:
Update A set Product=B.Revenue where A.ID=B.ID
Update statement based on the results from this SELECT:
SELECT RELQ_REL_VERSION_NM,
RELQ_RELEASE_Q_ID,
RELQ_STATUS_CD,
RELSP_RELEASE_STEP_ID,
RELSP_STEP_TYPE_CD,
RELSP_STATUS_CD
FROM RELEASE_QUEUE WITH (NOLOCK)
[Code] ....
I need to update all records where the
RELEASE_STEPS.RELSP_STATUS_CD = 'SKPD'TORELEASE_STEPS.RELSP_STATUS_CD = 'CMPS'
I imagine that the UPDATE statement will be something like:
UPDATE RELEASE_STEPS SET dbo.RELEASE_STEPS.RELSP_STATUS_CD = 'CMPS'
WHERE (
SELECT RELQ_REL_VERSION_NM,
RELQ_RELEASE_Q_ID,
RELQ_STATUS_CD,
RELSP_RELEASE_STEP_ID,

I am new to triggers and surely could use some help.
I can create a trigger to insert related records based on the main tables ID and insert that value into other related tables fine... but...
How do I create a trigger that can insert a record into one table for a columns given value and then insert a record into another table for another given value?
For instance:
New row...
Table1, Column1 (PK) has a value of 101
Table1, Column2 has a value of 'Blue'.
// When a new row is created in Table1 and Column2 has a value of 'Blue'...
I want to insert a new row into Table2 - with Table1 Column1's value.
// Now if Table1, Column2 has a value of 'Red' when the new row was created...
I want to insert a new row into Table3 - with Table1 Column1's value. Not Table2
This has to be inserted into one or the other tables based on column2's value, not both.
Then I want to populate the other related tables (Table4, Table5) with the regular insert statements based on Table1 Column1's value.
This (the conditional part above) has to work with an update to Table1 also.
So if someone came back to that record and changed Column2's value from 'Blue' to 'Red', it would have to delete the appropriate record in Table2 and then insert the new row into Table3 and visa-versa.
Can I do this with one trigger?
Thanks
Sql is not a strong point with me so I'm just going to throw this out there. I have a stored procedure that updates the quantity in my 'CartItems' table. Is there a way to have something else happen within the stored procedure that will update another field based on other parts of the record? There is a 'lineTotal' field that I need to equal the 'pounds * itemSell' fields which are both fields within this record.
CREATE PROCEDURE UpdateCartItem(@cartItemID Int,@newQuantity numeric(9))ASUPDATE CartItems Set quantity = @newQuantityWHERE cartItemID = @cartItemIDGO
Hi all,
I have two tables (staging and Cdate) and neither objects has any constraints.
staging table has ID, date, A, B, and C fields and Cdate has id,date and day fields. I need to update/insert date from Vdate into staging where staging ID=' ' and date is null
Here is the code I wrote, however, it seemed the information was updated to one date only instead of time series - Cdate contains time series in column date.
Anyone can help to fix it? Thank you for the help!
update s
set s.date=c.date
FROM cdate c join staging s on(s.id=c.id)
Where s.date is null and id=2
I would like to change a value after the table updates inserts a new row based on the value of that column
Table Name is: MPanel
Col Names: RID, FPID.
I want to:
If column RID='16'
Then UPDATE FPID='1'
How can I trigger that update? Would this work:???
CREATE TRIGGER dbo.MyTrigLI
ON dbo.MPanel
FOR INSERT, UPDATE
AS
BEGIN
UPDATE [MPanel]
SET
FPID='1'
WHERE (UPDATE(RID='16')
END
Below is the resultset I got using the following SQL statement
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY ID ORDER BY create_date DESC) AS RowNum
,ID
,create_date
,NULL AS end_date
FROM dbo.Table_1
Resultset:
RowNum ID
create_date end_date
1 0001
2015-02-18 NULL
2 0001
2014-04-28 NULL
[Code] ....
Now, I want to update the end_date column with the create_date's values for the next row_number. Desired output is shown below:
RowNum ID
create_date end_date
1 0001
2015-02-18 NULL
2 0001
2014-04-28 2015-02-18
[Code] ....
Hello again,
I'm hoping someone can help with with a task I've been given. I need to write a trigger which will act effectively as a method of automatically distributing of incoming call ticket records. See DDL below for creation of the Assignment table, which holds information on the call ticket workload.
Code Snippet
CREATE TABLE #Assignment
(CallID INT IDENTITY(1500,1) PRIMARY KEY,
AssignmentGroup VARCHAR(25),
Assignee VARCHAR(25)
)
GO
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('Service Desk', 'Jim Smith')
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('PC Support', 'Donald Duck')
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('Service Desk', 'Joe Bloggs')
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('Service Desk', 'Joe Bloggs')
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('Service Desk', 'Joe Bloggs')
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('PC Support', 'Donald Duck')
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('PC Support', 'Mickey Mouse')
GO
SELECT COUNT(CallID) AS [Total Calls], AssignmentGroup, Assignee
FROM #Assignment
GROUP BY AssignmentGroup, Assignee
ORDER BY COUNT(CallID) DESC , AssignmentGroup, Assignee
What I need to do is write a trigger for on INSERT to automatically update the Assignee column with the name of the person who currently has the least active calls. For example, using the data above, the next PC Support call will go to Mickey Mouse, and the next two Service Desk calls will go to Jim Smith.
So, the logic for the trigger would be
UPDATE #Assignment
SET Assignee = (SELECT Assignee FROM #Assignment WHERE COUNT(CallID) = MIN(COUNT(CallID))
But that's only the logic, and obviously it doesn't work with the syntax being nothing like correct.
Does any one have an idea or pointers as to how I should go about this?
Grateful for any advice, thanks
matt
