Query To Return Record From Hierarchy?

Oct 21, 2013

I am wanting to run a SQL statement whereby i return the ID of any employee's Director.

The database for employees has a reports to field which enables me to see the hierarchy of managers above any employee.

There is also a IsDirector flag that indicates a director.

So essentially i want to run sql that would return the first instance of a director in the hierarchy above any employee.

eg if A reports to B and B reports to C (who is a director) then it returns C.

I basically want the script to run until a director is found.

how would i do this?

How Do You Write A Query To Return All Record With Parameters?

Jan 24, 2006

For example:

Select * From Customers Where CustomerName = "Tom" and CustomerLocation = @Location

I know MS Access you can use a "*" to retrieve all records when there is a parameter. What does SQL Sever query use to retrieve all record?

Return Last Valid Record When Query Is Outside The Range?

Dec 18, 2012

Using MSSQL 2008 R2

Given the following table

Code:
{ID, PropClass, OffSet, Amount}
{1, 1, 1, .30}
{2, 1, 2, .45}
{3, 1, 3, .50}
{4, 2, 1, .26}
{5, 2, 2, .15}

If I know the exact offset I can query easily enough using PropClass and the exact offset. But what if the offset is not included in the range for a given PropClass? How can I get a query to return the last valid record for a given PropClass from within a join?

For example, if my query contained PropClass = 1 and offset = 4, it should return the Amount of .50 from Record with ID 3

This is a query that I am trying to work on:

Code:
SELECT v.District, v.PropClass, YearAquired, SUM(cost * cnt), SUM(v.Cost * v.Cnt * t.Amount), SUM(v.Tax), COUNT(*)
FROM UPValue v
INNER JOIN UPMaster m on m.Year = v.year and m.Account = v.account
INNER JOIN UPTable T on t.PropClass = v.PropClass and t.Offset = v.Year - v.YearAquired
WHERE v.Year = 2012 and LeaseType = 2
group by v.District, v.PropClass, YearAquired
order by v.District, v.PropClass

Using <= will not work because that would return multiple records from UPTable when the offset is < the max offset.

How To Write A Query To Return Null For Non-exist Record In An Outer Join.

Jun 2, 2004

I have two tables:

1. tblProducts
columns: ProductID, ProductName

2. tblProductCodes
columns: ProductID, CustomerID, ProductCode

The 2nd table is for storing product codes for customers, in other words, one product can have different ProductCode for different customers. But some customers do not have ProductCode for a ProductID.

I want to create a query to return all the Products and its ProductCode (null is valid) for a specific customer.

I tried:

SELECT dbo.tblProductCodes.ProductCode, dbo.tblProductCodes.CustomerID,
dbo.tblProducts.ProductName,
dbo.tblProducts.ProductID
FROM dbo.tblProducts LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.tblProductCodes ON dbo.tblProducts.ProductID = dbo.tblProductCodes.ProductID
WHERE dbo.tblProductCodes.CustomerID = 2

But the query left out all products that does not have ProductCode value in tblProductCodes table for CustomerID = 2. I want all the ProductName returned from query and render null or empty string for ProductCode value if the code does not exist in tblProductCodes table for the customer.

Any help is highly appreciated.

SQL Server 2012 :: Better Way To Query A Hierarchy Table?

Jan 21, 2015

I have a table named 'DepartmentItem' which is designed with hierarchy structure. The column 'ParentId' from table DepartmentItem indicates parent-child relationship and department root among records. I have written and run a user-defined function I use recursive approach, but the function runs slowly.

My question: is there a better way to query that hierarchy table instead of using recursive?

** The current user-defined function that is written using recursive:

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnGetDepartmentTree
(
@departmentItemId int
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
with DepartmentItemTree(DepartmentItemId , DepartmentItemTypeId , ParentId, ItemOrder, Level)

[code].....

** And definition of table 'DepartmentItem' :

DepartmentItemId int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
ParentId int NULL, -- Each department root starts when this column is NULL or the current row is department root. If it is not NULL then the current row has ParentId whose record has DepartmentItemId = ParentId of the current row (see more below)
IsActive bit NOT NULL DEFAULT ((1)),

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Tree View Hierarchy Query

Feb 25, 2015

ID ParentiD IsAutoCalculate Level

9 0 1 0
10 9 0 1
11 0 1 0
12 11 1 1
13 12 0 2

The above table shows a parent child relationship with the hierarchy shown in column level. for each parent (IDs 1, 9, 11), I want the first child level where the column IsAutoCalculate = 0

so for parent Id 1, the rows to be returned is of level 1 as that is the first child row of this parent with IsAutoCalculate = 0. The rows with level 2 should not be returned

For parent id 3, the rows to be returned will be with level 2 as this is the first child row of this parent with IsAutoCalculate = 0

Return Full Max Record

Mar 24, 2008

Is there a t-sql shortcut/ quick way to return the full max record.

So basically if I had:
prog_area glh description
HS 200 health and social care
EN 300 engineering
HS 400 health care
EN 250 engineering and construction

so grouping by prog_area and taking max glh would return appropriate descriptions like:
HS 400 health care
EN 300 engineering

This is quite a simple example and I would be using it on much larger datasets. I know how to do it by doing a join to itself with max glh but it seems to me there should be an easier way to return the appropriate full record set. Hopefully somethin fast in t-sql

MDX Query On Non-Visible Attribute Hierarchy Dimension Fields

Aug 8, 2007

I am in the process of develping a MSRS report using an MSAS 2005 OLAP cube as my data source. In the MSRS Query Builder, I am using an MDX query which successfully executes in Management Studio. Something like the following:


SELECT

NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Fact Count] }
ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY{ ( [Dim Attribute].[Hierarchy Not Visible].ALLMEMBERS) } DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME
ON ROWS
FROM [MyCube]

CELL PROPERTIES VALUE, BACK_COLOR, FORE_COLOR, FORMATTED_VALUE, FORMAT_STRING, FONT_NAME, FONT_SIZE, FONT_FLAGS

The twist is that the AttributeHierarchyVisible property of the [Dim Attribute].[Hierarchy Not Visible] is set to False.

As mentioned previously, the query successfully executes in Management Studio. However when it is executed in the MSRS Query Builder, the following error message is displayed:

The query cannot be prepared: The query must have at least one axis. The first axis of the query should not have multiple hierarchies, nor should it reference any dimension other than the Measures dimension..
Parameter name: mdx (MDXQueryGenerator)


Is there a way to successfully query dimension attributes whose hierarchies are not visible?

Thanks.

Query Timeouts When Updating A Record Retrieved Through A Websphere JDBC Datasource - Possible Record Locking Problem

Apr 7, 2008

Hi,

We're running a Sage CRM install with a SQL Server 2000 database at the back end. We're using the Sage web services API for updating data and a JDBC connection to retrieve data as it's so much quicker.

If I retrieve a record using the JDBC connection and then try and update the same record through the web services, the query times out as if the record is locked for updates. Has anyone experienced anything similar or know what I'm doing wrong? If I just use DriverManager.getConnection() to establish the connection instead of the datasource, and then continue with the same code I don't get these record locking problems. Please find more details below.

Thanks,
Sarah

The JDBC provider for the datasource is a WebSphere embedded ConnectJDBC for SQL Server DataSource, using an implementation type of 'connection pool datasource'. We are using a container managed J2C authentication alias for logging on.

This is running on a Websphere Application Server v6.1.

Code snippet - getting the record thru JDBC:


DataSource wsDataSource = serviceLocator.getDataSource("jdbc/dsSQLServer");
Connection wsCon = wsDataSource.getConnection();


// wsCon.setAutoCommit(false); //have tried with and without this flag - same results

Statements stmt = wsCon.createStatement();


String sql = "SELECT * FROM Person where personID = 12345";
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(sql);


if(rs.next()){
System.out.println(rs.getString("lastName"));
}

if (rs != null){
rs.close();
}
if (stmt != null) {

stmt.close();
}
if (wsCon != null) {

wsCon.close();
}

SP Return Multiple Records For A Single Record

May 3, 2007

I have two tables
TermID, Term
1--- Abc
2--- Test
4--- Tunic

and
TermID, RelatedTermID
1 --- 2
1--- 4
2--- 4

I need to get back something like this

TermID, Term, RelatedTermsInformation
1--- test--- test,tunic#1,4


that above was my solution, get the relatedterms information and comma separate, and then put a # and get all the ids comma separate them and then put the in one field. then I can later parse it in the client

this does not seem like a very good solution ( or is it?)
If posible it would be nice to get something like this

TermID, Term, RelatedTermsInformation
1 test RelatedTermsTwoDimentionalArray

but I am not sure how this idea could be implemented using the capabilities of SQL.

my other option is have the client make one call to the database to get the terms and then lots of another calls to get the relatedTerms, but that will mean one trip to the DB for the list term, and one call for every single term found.

any ideas in how to make this better ?

I Need A Quick Way To Return Place/rank/postion Of A Record?

Nov 14, 2007

I run an ASP.NET website with a monthly contest.  Members can enter 1 script for each contest.  Scripts can then be voted on.
There are three relevant SQL tables:
Contest with the field: ContestIDScript with the fields: ContestID, ScriptID, and TitleScriptComment with the fields: ScriptID and Score
Scripts are grouped by contest and come in place (first, second, third, etc.) based on the average of all the scores they received.
I need a QUICK stored procedure that will accept ScriptID as a parameter and return back the place that script came in, in that particular contest.
Currently, I get this information by creating a virtual table and populating it with joined data from Script and ScriptComment.  I order the table by average Score desc.  I then use a select statement against that table using the ScriptID and return back the row number.  This works, but it is very slow.  There are times where I might need to list 300 scripts and I need to do this lookup for each script to display what place they came in.
I need a much faster way to get the place of any script in a contest.  I think the Virtual Table is killing the speed.  I have been trying to find a solution using a view or the new SQL 2005 command Row_Number(), but I have been unsuccessful.
If anyone has a speedy solution, I would love to hear it.
Thanks a lot,
Chris Messineo

Joining Tables - Return Name / Description And Keyword For Every Record ID

May 7, 2012

I have 3 tables I'm trying to join:

Table 1: Contains ID, Name, Description
Table 2: Contains ID, Keyword
Table 3: Is lookup table for tables 1 & 2

I need a query to return a table having columns of:
Name, Description, Keyword for every record ID in Table 1

The issue is that table 2 contains multiple keywords for each key ID and my query returns an error: Subquery returned more than 1 value.

When I run this query using a specific key, it returns the correct information the way I want it:

DECLARE @ServiceID VARCHAR(10)
SET @ServiceID = '35'
DECLARE @Name VARCHAR(8000) DECLARE @Desc VARCHAR(8000) DECLARE @Keywords VARCHAR(8000)
SELECT @Name = [DefService].[Name],@Desc = [DefService].[Description],@Keywords = COALESCE(@Keywords + ', ', '') + [DefKeyword].[Name] FROM [DefService] INNER JOIN [DefKeywordServices] ON [DefService].serviceid = [DefKeywordServices].[ServiceID] INNER JOIN [DefKeyword] ON [DefKeyword].[KeywordID] = [DefKeywordServices].[KeywordID] WHERE [DefService].[ServiceID] = @ServiceID PRINT @Name + ' | ' + @Desc + ' | ' + @Keywords
SELECT @Name AS Name,@Desc AS Description,@Keywords AS Keywords

Results:
NameDescriptionKeywords
GoToMyPC - Account RequestRequest a Citrix GoToMyPC account.GTMPC, GoTo, application, software, install, Installation, applications

When I run the same query without a specific key it fails. The results only return a single row containing Name, Description and then ALL keywords for every key ID...very odd behavior.

BTW, I need to do this in a single SQL query and not a stored proc or other method.

Nov 26, 2005

We're using ASPUpload as a tool to upload files to our server and savethe details to SQLServer. However, I have an application where I needto return the pkID of the just saved file. I'm assuming that I coulduse the @@Identity command but cannot get this to function.Has anyone used this command with ASPUpload with an success, or anyother methods that could be used?Thanks.
