T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Rank Duplicates But Only Rows Involved In Duplicates?

Oct 22, 2014

I have a table with 22 million Business records. I can see that there are duplicates when I group by BusinessName and Address and Phone. I'd like to place only the duplicates into a table, with a ranking, oldest business key gets a ranking of 1.

As a bonus I'd like each group to have a distinct group name (although not necessary, just want to know how to do this)

Later after I run more verifications to make sure these are not referenced elsewhere I'll delete everything with a matchRank > 1 out of the main Business table.

DROP TABLE [dbo].[TestBusiness];
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TestBusiness](
[Business_pk] INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[BusinessName] VARCHAR (200) NOT NULL,
[Address] VARCHAR(MAX) NOT NULL,

[code]....

So how do i get rid of Duplicated Data..
In the ClientFundId column we can a 9 letter Aplhanumeric or a 5 letter character but if the fund co.. provides those values the 5 letter characters are stored in Ticker column and the 9 letter words are stored in Cusip column.. So i just wrote this query hoping i could retrieve the duplicate values but it didnt list any..but i found one this is my query..

How Do I Find The Duplicates In A Table

Dec 11, 1999

does someone have a querry to display the duplicate records in a table.

Table:
zipcode dma

My data upload is failing because there is a primary key on zipcode and the source data (42k records) has about 50 duplicate zipcode records in it. It is possible that there is a unique combo of zipcode / dma but I need to identify the duplicate records to determine that.

Removing Duplicates In The Table

Mar 21, 2014

The database has Name,Email, and skill. Though the name is distinct it is repeated as it has different skills. I would like to remove duplicate names and add the corresponding skill to the only one row.

From the stored procedure, combining 3 tables I got the output as:

NameemaildepartmentSkill
ArunemailidTech teamTechnical
ArunemailidTech teamLeadership
ArunemailidTech teamDecision Making
BinayemailidMarketingTechnical
BinayemailidMarketingDecision Making

I would like to remove the duplicate Name fields and combine the Skill in a single row as other fields are same.

So the output should be

NameemaildepartmentSkill
ArunemailidTech teamTechnical, Leadership, Decision Making
BinayemailidMarketingTechnical,Decision Making

Duplicates In Table Field

Aug 7, 2014

Im trying to look for duplicates in a table field.. field name is alphanumericCol and table is a user defined table...This is my trigger:

ALTER TRIGGER [dbo].[DUPLICATES]
ON [dbo].[AMGR_User_Fields_Tbl]

FOR INSERT, UPDATE
AS
DECLARE @Alphanumericcol VARCHAR (750)

-- This trigger has been created to check that duplicate rows are not inserted into table.

-- Check if row exists
SELECT @Alphanumericcol
FROM Inserted i, AMGR_User_Fields_Tbl t
WHERE t.AlphaNumericCol = i.AlphaNumericCol
AND t.Client_Id = i.Client_Id
-- (@Alphanumericcol = 1)
-- Display Error and then Rollback transaction
BEGIN
RAISERROR ('This row already exists in the table', 16, 1)
ROLLBACK TRANSACTION
END

The result i get is, if i input a duplicate number it fills in a null in the field so my question is how do i get it to tell me its duplicate and let me insert a new one

Process For Removing Duplicates In Table?

May 18, 2012

I have a very large table that can contain up 3 to 5 duplicate records. Every month around 100,000 new records come in. Sometimes it's an ammended record, other times is just duplicated by error.

Is it possible to keep the latest record dumped into the table and delete the others? Does SQL track the order of the data being dropped into the table?

The layout would look like this. There are 10-15 other columns in the table where adjustments can also be made.

Lease# Year Month Production
12345 2008 10 1,231

Table Joins Causing Duplicates?

May 15, 2015

I have a table with call data (ContactID, Queues Entered, Call Status, Date & Time Stamps etc). Each entry relating to a contact ID goes onto a new row. The first row for a contact is the date and time it is created. It then captures the queue (or queues) it enters before it is answered. Finally, it captures when the call is released (Completed).

I'm trying to link all this data into one single row per contact ID to make it easier to report on.

I started off by using DISTINCT to pull back all of the Contact ID's. I then used a Left Join to pull back the date and time of creation. I created a further Left Join to pull back the first queue that it entered and so on.

When I did this, I started getting duplicates. This is because some calls enter more than one queue.

How can I do this so that it only has one ContactID per row. Also, for the Queue, is there anything I can do to ensure it pulls back the first Queue it enters? (These are time stamped). Subsequently, I would then need to add the second and third queue it enters in other columns. (A call can enter a maximum of 3 queues).

MSSQL Dbo Table Duplicates On Host Server

Apr 26, 2005

(i am not sure which forum to post this too)
Hi, I imported a table onto my host's server, table_Login which has username password, and userID. userID is Primary Key & identity.
When I had my code do insert of new user, I was getting error the Login.userID doesn't allow null values. Which shouldn't have mattered because userID is an identity.
After making a diagram from Enterprise Manager, I noticed that I have two Login tables (although only one shows in Enterprise Manager's "Table" node view. The second table, which had none of the constraints that my table of the same name which is listed under the "Table" node does; appears to be the table which is being written to by my code.
I can't find this table, Login(dbo), through Enterprise Manager, nor am i sure how to access it through Query Analyzer. Needless to say, I don't like this arrangement. and well tech support for this host seems to leave a lot to be desired.
Anyone know what needs to be done so that I can fix it or fight with tech support to convince them that they should?

HiOur product uses MS-SQL Server 2000. One of our customer has 10installations with each installation stroring data in its own database.Now the customer wants to consolidate these databases into one and wealready have plan for that by consolidating one DB at a time. But firstthey want to find how many unique or duplicate entries they have acrossall the 10 databasesAssumptions:1. All the databases reside on the same server. (This is just anassumption, not the real environment at customer site)2. Databases can not be merged before it is found how many unique orduplicate rows exist.Table under consideration:Message(HashID PK,....)# of rows in Message table in each of databases: 1 MillionHere is my question: How can I find how many unique or duplicateentries they have across all the 10 databases. I easily find uniquerows for two databases with a query like this:SELECT COUNT(A.HasID) FROM db1.dbo.Message A LEFT OUTER JOIN ONdb2.dbo.Message B ON A.HashID = B.HashID WHERE B.HashID IS NULLHow can I do this for 10 databases. This will require factorial of 10queries to solve this problem.I will appreciate if someone can provide hint on this.RegardsAK

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Delete Duplicates From Table Based On Two Columns?

May 20, 2015

Assuming I have a table similar to the following:

Auto_ID Account_ID Account_Name Account_Contact Priority
1 3453463 Tire Co Doug 1
2 4363763 Computers Inc Sam 1
3 7857433 Safety First Heather 1
4 2326743 Car Dept Clark 1
5 2342567 Sales Force Amy 1
6 4363763 Computers Inc Jamie 2
7 2326743 Car Dept Jenn 2

I'm trying to delete all duplicate Account_IDs, but only for the highest priority (in this case it would be the lowest number).

I know the following would delete duplicate Account_IDs:

DELETE FROM staging_account
WHERE auto_id NOT IN
(SELECT MAX(auto_id)
FROM staging_account
GROUP BY account_id)

The problem is this doesn't take into account the priority; in the above example I would want to keep auto_ids 2 and 4 because they have a higher priority (1) than auto_ids 6 and 7 (priority 2).

How can I take priority into account and still remove duplicates in this scenario?

SQL Server 2008 :: Table Returning Duplicates When Joined On

Jul 7, 2015

We currently have an application whereby the user will come along sign up add some information about them, choose what interests / hobbies they're in to and then click save.After completing the sigh up they're able to search for other individuals within locations (look at this functionality as a dating site) We currently have a stored procedure whereby when the user clicks Advance Search they fill in all the fields they filled in when signing up and when they click search we return all users that match the data the user has selected. This part is working correctly.

The issue im having is extending this stored procedure to take a user defined table type which has two columns UserId and ActivityId both columns are nullable.This user defined table type is referred to in two places, when the user signs up and when they do an advance search.When the user does an advance search he / she can choose a list of hobbies / interests this will then be passed in to the database and I will join on my User_Activities table to find the users that have the Activities passed in.When I join on this table I get duplicate records purely because one user may have 5 - 10 activities depending on how active the individual is. My current stored procedure looks like this

@Ambition int = null,
@Body int = null,
@Diet int = null,
@Drinking int = null,
@Ethnicity int = null,
@Exercise int = null,
@HeightFrom int = null,

[code]...

So my question is how can I select all users that match the criteria passed in, as well as finding the users that match the activities passed in (the user can either match all of them or a minimum of 1). Also my User_Activities has two columns UserId and ActivityId identical to the user defined table type

SQL Server 2008 :: How To Find Duplicates In A Table As Per Particular Column

Nov 2, 2015

I am having a main table and temptable.

Every sunday, new data will be loaded from temptable to main table. I have to make sure that, duplicates does not get loaded from temptable to maintable.

For example, if last sunday a record gets loaded from temp to main. If this sunday also the same record is present then it means that is a duplicate.

The duplicate is decided on below scenario

select 'CodeChanges: ', count(*) from CodeChanges a, CodeChanges_Temp b
where a.AccountNumber = b.AccountNumber and
a.HexaNumber = b.HexaNumber and
a.HexaEffDate = b.HexaEffDate and
a.HexaId = b.HexaId and

[Code] ...

Yesterday (Sunday) , data from temp got loaded onto maintable but with duplicates.

There is a log which just displays number of duplicates.

Yesterday the log displayed 8 duplicates found. I need to find out the 8 duplicates which got loaded yesterday and delete it off from main table.

There is a column in both tables which is 'creation date and time'. Every Sunday when the load happens this column will have that day's date .

Now i need to find out what are all the duplicates which got loaded on this sunday.

The total rows in temp table is : 363
No of duplicates present is : 8

I used below query to find out the duplicates but it is returning all the 363 rows from the maintable instead of the 8 duplicates.

Select 'CodeChanges: ', * from CodeChanges a where
exists
( Select 1 from CodeChanges_Temp b where
a.HexaNumber = b.HexaNumber and
a.HexaEffDate = b.HexaEffDate and

[Code] ...

Need finding the duplicate records which has creation date time as '2015-11-01 00:00:00.000' and all the above columns mentioned in the query matches.

Example

Few colums only metioned below

creationdateandtime HexaNumber HexaCode
1. 1987-10-01 00:00:00.000 5 3
2. 2015-11-01 00:00:00.000 5 3

So here the second record is duplicate. This is what I am trying to find.

Power Pivot :: Create Measure Within Date Dimension Table To Sum Single Entry Per Month Eliminating Duplicates

Jul 27, 2015

We are trying to do some utilization calculations that need to factor in a given number of holiday hours per month.

I have a date dimension table (dimdate).  Has a row for every day of every year (2006-2015)

I have a work entry fact table (timedetail).  Has a row for every work entry.  Each row has a worked date, and this column has a relationship to dimdate.

Our holidays fluctuate, and we offer floating holidays that our staff get to pick.  So we cannot hard code which individual dates in dimdate as holidays.  So what we have done is added a column to our dimdate table called HolidayHoursPerMonth. 

This column will list the number of holiday hours available in the given month that the individual date happens to fall within, thus there are a lot of duplicates.  Below is a brief example of dimdate.  In the example below, there are 0 holiday hours for the month of June, and their are 8 holiday hours for the month of July.

DateKey MonthNumber HolidayHoursPerMonth
6/29/2015 6 0
6/30/2015 6 0
7/1/2015 7 8
7/2/2015 7 8

I have a pivot table create based of the fact table.  I then have various date slicers from the dimension table (i.e. year, month).  If I simply drag this column into the pivot table and summarize by MAX it works when you are sliced on a single month, but breaks if anything but a single month is sliced on.  

I am trying to create a measure that calculates the amount of holiday hours based on the what's sliced, but only using a single value for each month.  For example July should just be 8, not  8 x #of days in the month. 

Listed below is how many hours per month.  So if you were to slice on an entire year, the measure should equal 64.  If you sliced on Jan, Feb and March, the measure should equal 12.  If you were to slice nothing, thus including all 15 years in our dimdate table, the measure should equal 640 (10 years x 64 hours per year).

MonthNumberOfYear HolidayHoursPerMonth
1 8
2 4
3 0
4 0
5 8
6 0
7 8
8 0
9 8
10 4
