Hi.
i have a problem that related to aggregation functions.
i have a table (requests)that consist with the following fields:event_id, request_type,data.
i want to present a report that for each event_id it will show the number of records where the request_type value is:"VMR".
i wrote the following query-
SELECT event_id, Count(request_type)
FROM requests
WHERE ((requestType)="VMR")
GROUP BY event_id
the problem is that:if event_id don't has a record with the value "VMR" it will not be showen in the report and the goal is to present those kind of events with the value 0.
who can i make it happen.
I'm using an Aggregation task to summarize an input file by item and week before inserting it into a SQL table.
Two of the fields I'm summing, because their totals per record can occasionally exceed 32k, are defined as int (I4) instead of smallint (I2). However, the summarized total never exceeds the value an int can hold.
I ran into a problem on the insert, however, with SSIS telling me it couldn't insert an I8 value into an I4 table field. I discovered the metadata for the summed totals had automatically been set to bigint (I8), and the mapping was failing.
I didn't see a way to change that metadata within the Aggregation task itself, so I added a Data Conversion task to convert the totals to four-byte signed integers and enable the mapping. Was that the proper workaround?
Can anyone help me with an problem I have come across in my databasedesign.I have a primary table and a related table with 3 child records (eachwith a numeric field). I require a query to return the primary keyfrom the main table and the PRODUCT (i.e. all numeric valuesmultiplied together) of the three child records, much like a SUM wouldadd them together.Any help would be gratefully received!Tony.
I am new to the reporting services and I've been working on problem in one of my reports all day long and after 8 hours of frusturation I decided ask for a profesional help.
Ok here is my problem: I have a report that calculates the amount of meetings with our clients. The dataset contains an activity_id field that we assign for each our meetings with our clients. SSRS counts these meetings and shows it in a drilldown enabled report. Everything seems fine on the report except that someof the activities involves few different clients and SSRS is not counting the activities multiple times in region drilldown as there is only one activity id associates in that region even though it contains different companies. And I want those companies to be calculated in too.
From the crude drawing below I wanted to explain my dilemma visually. As it can be seen the total number of meetings we had is actually 40. But as we had 3 activities that involves more than 1 clients it only gives 37 as a count. I would like to know is there a way to make the report count the same activity multiple times if activity_id is associated with more than one clients.
I hope I managed to explain my problem

I know we can design Aggregation usage for a dimension within a cube. For example, you can choose Full , None, Unrestricted and Default method. I assume this is the Global settings.
Is it possible that Ican do the same thing for the attributes within a dimension? I cannot find such property in attributes. Does this means we can't control which attributes we want Analysis Services to aggregate in a dimension?
I have the following three tables : Account (Id int, AccountName nvarchar(25)) Role (id int, Rights int) AccountRole (AccountID, RoleID)
In Role table - Rights Column is a bit map where in each bit would refer to access to a method. One account can be associated with multiple roles - AccountRole table is used for representing the N:N relation.
I want to develop a store procedure - which would return all AccountName and their Consolidated Rights. Basically I want to do a BitWise OR operation for all the Rights in the Aggregation instead of the SUM as shown in the following statement.
SELECT Account.Name, SUM(Role.Rights) FROM Account WITH (NOLOCK) JOIN RoleAccount ON RoleAccount.AccountID = Account.Id JOIN Role ON RoleAccount.RoleId = Role.Id GROUP BY Account.Name
I have a table imported from a legacy Oracle database that stores values vertically in name/value pairs. I store it in table-type variable that is an exact copy of the structure:
If this information were pivoted horizontally: OMNI_NUMBER would be the primary key.
TIMESTAMP is a 10-digit integer that represents the number of seconds since 1/1/1970 UTC that requires additional conversion. DATA_TYPE is not the data type. It is a general categorization of the next two columns.PARAMTER would be the column headings if it were horizontal..PARAMETER_VALUE would be the data value in that column.
I would like to try to use PIVOT to list the PARAMETER column values as column headers. This seems to work fine. What's confusing me is that I'd like it to list the PARAMETER_VALUE column values as raw data, just as it is in the source version, without having to apply some sort of aggregate function to it. Here's a CSV sample of the data you can paste into Excel. I'm trying to transform this:
I have a Sales cube and I want to be able to display Products and the Price at which they were purchased in a given period. I have a Product dimension while Price is a measure in my Sales Fact Table. Is there a way to have a "Group By" aggregation instead of a Sum? This way, I can show Products grouped by their list price.
My Product Dimension consists of product_numbers (such as 100, 101, 102 etc...) My Sales Fact Table consists of sales data (such as product_key, price, net_sales, returns, etc...) at the transaction level.
where Net_sales and Returns are "summed" and Price is simply a "Group By". In other words, this report would show the net sales and returns by product for a given price.
I'd rather not use a Price dimension since we have hundreds of products at hundreds of different prices. Moreover, this data is already in the Sales Fact table.
I am trying to port a database from SQL Server 2005 Express to SQLServer 2005 Standard. Idetached my database from the SQL Sever 2005 Express instance andattached it to the SQL Server 2005 Standard instance. Whenever I do aselect on tables in the database I have no problem. However if Iattempt to open or modify a table by selecting open or modify from thepopup menu, I get the following error --TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio------------------------------Class does not support aggregation (or class object is remote)(Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040110 (CLASS_E_NOAGGREGATION))(Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlTools.VSIntegration)------------------------------BUTTONS:OK------------------------------I tried repairing the .NET 2.0 framework but to no avail.Please help!!!Thanks,
Hello, I have a resultset as follows:fields: Name, RankIDvalues:Prorduct A, 4Product B, 33Product C, 221(etc)Name is always unique. RankID may not be.I want to take that result set and basically pivot it to have the Namevalues as columns, and the RankID of each one as the data. So youwould end up with only one row like:Product A | Product B | Product C | etc4 | 33 | 221 | etcIs this possible? I do not want to sum the data or anything, simplyrotate it sort of.Any advice is appreciated.
I need to create a report containing the headcounts of the employees for each month. The data I can retrieve from the database looks like this:
Name StartEmp EndEmp
tom 1/jan/05 15/mrt/05
dirk 1/jan/05 31/mrt/06
jan 1/feb/05 NULL
In order to get the right information for the report the information should be represented in the following way:
January 2005 February 2005 March 2005 "April" 2005
Tom 1 1 0,5 1
Dirk 1 1 1 1
Jan 0 1 1 1
HeadCount 2 3 2,5 3 (there should be more data in the 2nd table but it's a sliced representation of the data. Sliced by 2 report parameters: startdate (=1 January 2005) and enddate (=30 April 2005) )
I need some help about building up the query to aggregate the info from table1 to the format of table2.
my package is failing every now and then on the following error:
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x00040EDA Description: "Warning: Null value is eliminated by an aggregate or other SET operation.". yes, I do have a null aggregation, but in all my tests this didn't cause a failure... anyone had experience with this?
I have daily data that I wish to summarise into monthly. The field [Close] will return the last day of the month that has a value.The query below summarises the data as I want it but using the max of [Close] in the month instead rather than the Last value for the month. In Access I used to use Last function that worked perfectly. From googling, Last doesn't seem to exist in T-SQL but there must be a way to do it.
D.YearMonth_Number,max(AT.[Close]) FROM tbl_Date ASD INNERJOINtbl_ASXStats ASAT OND.YearMonthDay_Number =AT.YearMonthDay_Number
Is this possible in any way? Basically I have a standard pair of tables in a master/detail relationship. I need to somehow be able to query the child table for all children related to a parent record and return some sort of aggregation of a certain column. The problem is that I still need to know what each value was, so it can't be something like a SUM or an AVG.
As if that wasn't complicated enough, this will be done on 1000+ records at a time and is being used in a binding situation.
I've figured out how to do this with standard SQL Server with some dirty FOR XML hacks, but I'm beginning to think that it's not in any way possible with SQL Compact.
I have a multi dimensional cube. Among the dimensions I have, there is one dimension that has one hierarchy defined. When I view any of my measures on this hierarchy, I don't want the measures to be aggregated. I read some threads here having to do with semi additive behaviors, but Im not sure if it applies to my case. (or maybe it does and I'm just not getting it)
The purpose of "AnotherPersonID" is to have a self join that describes a certain relationship. So, in this case, Person B and C are related to Person A. I describe this relationship using a hierarchy where A is a parent of B and C. However, I don't want the measures for Person_A to be replaced by the sum of the measures in Person_B and Person_C.
Why do I have a hierarchy if I don't want to sum the numbers? This is motivated by the need to dynamically report on A's numbers when B or C's numbers are reported. I'm just using persons as an example, but, in my case I have a bunch of members that can be paired with another member in that dimension. And when I report on a member that joins to another member in that dimension, I need to dynamically report on that member's measures as well.
Lastly, If the use of a hierarchy is not the best approach for this, would you recommend another approach?
Hi, I have following data coming from prior transformations.
Id Unit Name NewFlag ___ __________ ____________
1 JacuzziBox 1 2 Hummer H2 0 3 Waste dumper 0
and so on.
I want aggregate task to result 2 fields (without any GROUP BY-ing), so that one contains total number of rows or records, and one contain total number of records with NewFlag=1.
Just wondering if it is possible by using Aggregate and how.

I'm using SQL Server 2005 Dev. with Windows XP Pro. SP2. 50GB free space with 1GB of RAM After I installed SQL Server with no problems. I tried to open a table in AdventureWorks database and I'm getting an error:
I have a problem: I have various cube packed in a virtual cube to give me distinctCount Values of customers who purchased products (DC customer] and purchased products (DC product) along with Saleries [RW] over numerous dimensions such as productgroups customergroups etc. In the calculated measure [RW kum] I can sum the the salaries from the beginning of the year until [time].currentmember with the following MDX-Code: With member [Measures].[RW kum] As 'Sum(Periodstodate([time].[year]).[Measures].[RW])' Select {[Measures].[RW],[Measures].[RW kum], [Measures].[DC customer]} on rows, [Productgroup].[Itemgroup].Allmembers on columns From [vcub_Sales] Where [Time].[2005].[march]
IF I use this PeriodsToDate-Formular with the the measure DC customer I will get the sum of distinctcounts of the periods.
What I want is the distinct count of all customers who have purchased since the beginning of the Year until the [Time].currentmember in the same Level.
Given this problem, do I.. 1. have make another Cube or 2. another time dimension or 3. is there a way in MDX to get the result?
eventually I started using DERIVED Tables and Sub queries within them if needed. I like choking down all the queries in the selects joining them and having your result set select there to choose from all the aliases, it also resolves while doing this. So much easier IMO than using CTE's or TEMP Tables. I was big on temp tables for a while...
I'm curious though if you want to count a type of criteria in a column do you use a standard case in your inner query choking it down just for those particular counts? Then do another case on the other criteria and END AS with the alias name?
E.G.
CASE WHEN COLUMN1 = PIZZA THEN COUNT(COLUMN1) END AS PIZZACOUNT CASE WHEN COLUMN1 = ROOTBEER THEN COUNT(COLUMN!) END AS ROOTBEERCOUNT ETC...........
I have a problem that requires me to write Daily sum aggregation script, I wrote the script; But what I'm not sure of is the "Daily" part, my script will give me only give me results when I execute it. How to make this code daily?
SELECT Receipt ,"Date" ,Item ,Reason ,Division ,SUM(Cost) AS Cost

I manage a legacy system that dumps it's data into a number of different databases (same schema) on a nightly basis using bulk insert. I need to formulate a strategy for efficiently aggregating that data into a single database right after these nightly extractions complete. Here is my current stategy:
1. Duplicate the legacy system's database schema and add an identifier column to specify which database the data loaded from.
2. Each night, delete all records in the table.
3. Each night, for each database:
3a. Set each table's default value to a value that references the current database being loaded.
3b. Use the legacy system's flat files and format files to bulk insert into the database.
3c. Clear the default value.
What other steps would faciliate performance? Dropping and recreating the indexes? Does anyone forsee faults in this strategy?
I have 3 partitions using a year grouping. Current year, previous 4 years, older than 5 years. I have two measure groups, one is a distinct count, so I actually have 6 partitions.I also use usage based optimization to build my aggregations. Should each partition have a separate aggregation or should there be one for each measure group?
I have a measure in a SSAS cube that uses AggregateFunction "Sum". Dimension usage seems to be right so that it sums correctly.
But when I try to use same measure in SSRS report it comes out all wrong.
TO be precise the measure is called "CalendarDays" and it's the number of days in a month (28,29,30 or 31). Say I have 5 products and 4 years, If I look at this in the cube browser then the CalendarDays column aggregates correctly to 365 or 366 for each year even with the five products and 12 months in the rows.
However if I do a SSRS report by product and month with subtotals of years, then SUM(CalendarDays) adds up all the CalendarDays for each month and each product (ie 5 x 365 or 366). If I leave out "SUM" and just enter =Fields!CalendarDays in the subtotal then it doesn't aggregate at all, it jsut gives the first value (ie 31).
How can I get SSRS to aggregate the same way as the cube?
I'm trying to pivot the data in a table but not aggregate numeric data, just rearrange the data in columns as opposed to rows.
For example, my initial table could be represented by this structure:
ID Label Value
1 a val1
1 b val2
1 c val3
1 d val4
1 e val5
2 a val6
2 b val7
2 c val8
2 d val9
2 e val10
and I am trying to get it into the following structure:
ID Label a Label b Label c Label d Label e
1 val1 val2 val3 val4 val5
2 val6 val7 val8 val9 val10
The number of labels is known beforehand, so we know how many columns to make. I can get a first step at pivoting it with 'case' statements, but obviously still end up with a row for each Label/Value pair since there is no aggregate function being applied. So I'm not sure how to get it flattened down like shown above?
I am trying to add aggregations to the partitions of my cube.
For that, I am using the Aggregation Designer, In which I choose MOLAP partitions with "Performance gain reaches 80%". Next I run the calculation. But the designer found only 78 aggregations and stop at 20% (496 Kb) !
My configuration is SSAS 2005 SP2, x64. Except this problem, everything is allright. Dimension attributes are all aggregatable.
Have you any idea of what can cause such a problem ? Thanks in advance.
