Update Field Based Upon Other Fields

Jan 24, 2008



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

Separating One Field Into Two Fields Based On A Character In The Field

Jul 20, 2005

I know there has to be a way to do this, but I've gone brain dead. Thescenario..a varchar field in a table contains a date range (i.e. June 1,2004 - June 15, 2004 or September 1, 2004 - September 30, 2004 or...). Theusers have decided thats a bad way to do this (!) so they want to split thatfield into two new fields. Everything before the space/dash ( -) goes intoa 'FromDate' field, everything after the dash/space goes into the 'ToDate'field. I've played around with STRING commands, but haven't stumbled on ityet. Any help at all would be appreciated! DTS?

Select Fields Based On The Value In A Field

Sep 2, 2015

I have a table with two sets of fields, one for PRIMARY Mail Address and the other for ALTERNATE Mail Address. Both sets are five fields long.  I will call them PRIMARY & ALTERNATE for this discussion.  I want to select the PRIMARY fields if ALTERNATE is either null or zero, and the ALTERNATE fields if data is present.

I have used this syntax but it gives a table with both the PRIMARY & SECONDARY records.

SELECT    TXPRCL, TXALTR, TXANAM
FROM    dbo.PCWEBF21
WHERE    (TXALTR > 0)
UNION
SELECT    TXPRCL, TXTAXP, TXTNAM
FROM    dbo.PCWEBF21
WHERE    TXALTR = 0

Would a Select Case work? something like

Select PRIMARY when ALTERNATE = 0, and ALTERNATE when ALTERNATE > 0 or is not null.

Automatically Populate Application User Defined Field Based On Other Fields In Table

Nov 22, 2015

I am working with a vendor application called Cisco Unified Attendant Console - it operates on a Windows server with a SQL express database. The CUPs function of the application needs to reference a "contact" field with only the user portion of the contact's email address - generally, the contact's User ID will match the user portion of their email address, however, for this customer it does not (they use the employee number as the User ID and firstname.lastname as user portion of the email address.

Writing a script to accomplish the following:

The dbo.Contact_Properties table of the ATTCFG database has the following fields that we can work with:
 
- First_Name
 - Last_Name
 - Email
 - User_Field_2
 - Contact_Unique_Ref (appears to be the field that ties all other contact tables together ?)

Is it possible to create a script that could run daily to either, combine the First_Name and Last_Name fields (with a period between) and populate the User_Field_2 field for each user, or populate the User_Field_2 field with everything before the @ symbol in the Email field for each user?

Also, by default the servers that this application is installed on does not have SQL Server Management Studio installed - is it possible to accomplish with PowerShell script triggered from the Windows Scheduler?

Update Fields Using Data In Existing Field?

Jan 15, 2015

I have a field where all of the data is 5 characters in length. The last character denotes a status and will always be an F, H, or T. I want to add a new field (which I will do manually) and populate the new field with the last character from the "old" field. Once that is complete, I want to eliminate that 5th character from the old field.

Automatically Update Another Field Based On Other Parts Of The Record???

Feb 28, 2006

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

Transact SQL :: Get One Row From Multiple Based On Fields And Also Get Sum Of Decimal Fields?

Jul 2, 2015

I am using MS SQL 2012.  I have a table that contains all the data that I need, but I need to summarize the data and also add up decimal fields while at it.  Then I need a total of those added decimal fields. My data is like this:

I have Providers, a unique ID that Providers will have multiples of, and then decimal fields. Here are my fields:

ID, provider_name, uniq_id, total_spent, total_earned

Here is sample data:

1, Harbor, A07B8, 500.00, 1200.00
2, Harbor, A07B8, 400.00, 800.00
3, Harbor, B01C8, 600.00, 700.00
4, Harbor, B01C8, 300.00, 1100,00
5, LifeLine, L01D8, 700.00, 1300.00
6, LifeLine, L01D8, 200.00, 800.00

I need the results to be just 3 lines:

Harbor, A07B8, 900.00, 2000.00
Harbor, B01C8, 900.00, 1800.00
LifeLine, L01D8, 900.00, 2100.00

But then I would need the totals for the Provider, so:

Harbor, 1800.00, 3800.00

I have a table called BidItem which has another table calledBidAddendum related to it by foreign key. I have another table calledBidFolder which is related to both BidItem and BidAddendum, based on acolumn called RefId and one called Type, i.e. type 1 is a relationshipto BidItem and type 2 is a relationship to BidAddendum.Is there any way to specify a foreign key that will allow for thedifferent types indicating which table the relationship should existon? Or do I have to have two separate tables with identical columns(and remove the type column) ?? I would prefer not to have multipleidentical tables.

Update Fields With Data From Other Fields In Same Row

Jun 30, 2000

Pardon me if this question is too elementary. I am trying to create a trigger that will cause certain datafields to be updated with values from other data fields in the same row when a certain column, created specifically to fire the trigger, is updated. The purpose of this is to reduce data entry by field personnel.I think I have the create trigger statement correct, but I'm a little confused on the update statement.

In a nutshell, how can I write something like:
UPDATE "TABLENAME"
SET DATAFIELD1 = DATAFIELD2
WHERE RECORDNUMBER = (THE SAME RECORD NUMBER)

I do know that I have to ensure that sp_dboption Recursive Triggers value is set to false, thanks.

Conditional Fields Based On Export Type

Aug 27, 2007

I need to be able to suppress the printing of a particular value when exporting, but not when displaying on a web viewer on-line. I can place an IIF() condition around the field to do this, but do not know how to obtain a parameter/value/function which would recognize that the viewer has selected an export (To .PDF for example).
I would prefer there be a direct parameter I can read from the RDL language, however recognizing the selection while setting up the viewer to be displayed in the code-behind and setting an external parameter is also an option.

Any help would be appreciated.

Dynamic Data Set Based On Calculated Fields

Mar 26, 2008



Hi,

I have three data sets. Data Set A is bound to my table in my report. There are also Data Sets B and C. All three data sets have the identical columns. I have setup data set A so that all of its fields are "Calculated". The calculation for each field will either pick the field from data set B or data set C based upon a parameter called BorC. So the calcualted fields in data set A look like the following:


=iif(Parameters!BorC.Value, First(Fields!MyField.Value, "dataset_B"), First(Fields!MyField.Value, "dataset_C"))

Problem is when I run the report I get internal error. Is it possible to populate one data set from the fields of another data set? If so is there some trick to doing this? Stripping this example down to one column in each of the data sets, and then just directly setting data set A from either B or C still gives me the same error. SO I set the one field in data set A to the following and it still doesn't work:

=First(Fields!MyField.Value, "dataset_B")

OR

=First(Fields!MyField.Value, "dataset_C")

This leads me to believe there is some fundamental problem with using another data set in a Calculated field. Since I think I have done this before I am convinced I am doing sommething wrong.

Any advice you have for me would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks.

Is There An Easier Way? Two Aggregate Fields From One Based On Dates

Oct 19, 2007

When I was looking at this I knew that I've done this same issue before without using temp tables at all but I need a push to to jar it loose.

I have a table like this:







Balance
Date

1
200
2/14/2000

2
350
2/14/2000

3
32
2/14/2000

2
723
2/14/1998

3
354
2/14/1998





1
321
2/14/2000

2
673
2/14/1998

3
581
2/14/2000

2
574
2/14/1998

3
50
2/14/2000

1
10
2/14/2000

And essentially need this.










Total Balance Before 1/1/2000
Total Balance After 1/1/2000

1
0
531

2
1970
350

3
354
663



Right now I'm splitting it into two temp tables and then joining them together.

Temp Table 1 has the sum of the balance grouped by field1 before 1/1/2000 and Temp table 2 has the after 1/1/2000 criteria.

Table 1 gets updates with field1 values from table 2 that aren't already there. And then the balance field after 1/1/2000 is merged in.

Utimately this will be used in a SPROC for a Multivalued SSRS report.

Selecting Unmatched Records Based On Multiple Fields

Jul 21, 2004

I need to list all the records in Table2 which don't have matching field values in Table1.

This the the exact opposite of what I need:
SELECT DISTINCT
Field1,
Field2,
Field3,
Field4,
Field5
FROM
[Table1]
WHERE EXISTS(
SELECT DISTINCT
FieldA,
FieldB,
FieldC,
FieldD,
FieldE
FROM
[Table2]
)

The above seems to give me all records in Table1 in which the five fields match the five fields specified in Table2. What does not show up is the test record I put in Table2 which is not in Table1.

What I need, however, is the exact opposite.

I tried the above using NOT EXISTS but I get no records at all.

How do do this?

May be we may do by dense_rank or Row_Number, but I couldn't get the exact query to produce based on the above table values.  There are some duplicates in the table(which are not duplicates as per the Business). For those duplicated Unique ID should be same(Marked in Orange Color which are duplicates).

Need CASE Statement(s) To Populate 5 Fields Based On Values Of 2

Mar 10, 2008

I need to, ultimately, create a flatfile for exporting insurance information to a third-party vendor. Each individual is to have no more than 1 line per file, which contains their coverage information, if any, on 4 different type of insurance. What i need is for 2 fields in a table to determine the output for multiple fields in the flatfile.

What I have so far works, to an extent. If I have insurance types 1, 2, 4 (of types 1-4) required output is (__ = 2 blank spaces):



1A 1B 1C 1D 1E 2A 2B 2C 2D 2E 3A 3B 3C 3D 3E 4A 4B 4C 4D 4E

== == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == ==

Y N __ MD XX Y N __ MD XX N __ __ __ __ Y N __ DN XX



If they have coverage, A always = Y, B always = N, C always = blank(null), D is their ins. type, E is their cov. type(CASE statement). if they DON'T have that type of coverage, A always = N and the remaining field are NULL.



After a lot of work, and scouring a forum or 2, I attempted a whole lot of CASE functions. Below is an sample of code representing the 1x statements. This same code is repeated 4 times with the 1x being altered with 2x, 3x, 4x.



CASE HB.PLAN_TYPE

WHEN '10' THEN 'Y'

ELSE 'N' END AS 1A,

CASE HB.PLAN_TYPE

WHEN '10' THEN 'N'

ELSE ' ' END AS 1B,

' ' AS 1C,

CASE HB.PLAN_TYPE

WHEN '10' THEN HB.BENEFIT_PLAN

ELSE ' ' END AS 1D,

CASE HB.PLAN_TYPE

WHEN '10' THEN (CASE WHEN HB.COVRG_CD ='1' THEN 'XX'

WHEN HB.COVRG_CD ='2' THEN 'YY'

WHEN HB.COVRG_CD ='3' THEN 'ZZ'

ELSE 'WW' END)

ELSE ' ' END AS 1E,



It works to an extent. While the desires/required output it above, the output this produces (same scenario) is:



1A 1B 1C 1D 1E 2A 2B 2C 2D 2E 3A 3B 3C 3D 3E 4A 4B 4C 4D 4E

== == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == ==

Y N __ MD XX N __ __ __ __ N __ __ __ __ N __ __ __ __



1A 1B 1C 1D 1E 2A 2B 2C 2D 2E 3A 3B 3C 3D 3E 4A 4B 4C 4D 4E

== == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == ==

N __ __ __ __ Y N __ MD XX N __ __ __ __ N __ __ __ __



1A 1B 1C 1D 1E 2A 2B 2C 2D 2E 3A 3B 3C 3D 3E 4A 4B 4C 4D 4E

== == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == ==

N __ __ __ __ N __ __ __ __ N __ __ __ __ Y N __ DN XX



While there is supposed to be 1 line, regardless of number of insurance types, it only produces 1 line per type. I first tried this in Access, and was able to get it to work, but it required multiple queries resulting in a crosstab, export to Excel and manually manipulate the data, export to text file to manipulate, import back into Excel to manipulate, import back into Access and finally export into a flatfile. Far too much work to produce a file which is why I'm trying to convert it to raw SQL.
Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Change/Add Report Fields To Display Based On The Parameter Selected

Dec 18, 2007



I have a report parameter named "Schools" which display a list of schools. For example, Alo elementary school, Balo middle school and Calo high school.

When "Alo elementary" is selected the report only display students from that school along with other assessments data fields. same goes for other schools too. But I want to display different data fields for "Calo high school" when it is selected. It is not currently possilbe becasue I am using the same template for all types of schools. There some fields only should be displayed for "Calo high school" but not for any other type of schools.

I can accomplish this by creating two separate report, one for "Calo high school" and the other for other schools. But I want to accomplish this just by creating one report. So when "Alo elementary school" is selected it displays report with certain fields and when "Calo high school" is selected then it displays same fields as "Alo elementary school" but as well as some other fields too in the report. Is this possible? Need help.

SQL Server 2008 :: Update Null Enabled Field Without Interfering With Rest Of INSERT / UPDATE

Apr 16, 2015

If I have a table with 1 or more Nullable fields and I want to make sure that when an INSERT or UPDATE occurs and one or more of these fields are left to NULL either explicitly or implicitly is there I can set these to non-null values without interfering with the INSERT or UPDATE in as far as the other fields in the table?

EXAMPLE:

CREATE TABLE dbo.MYTABLE(
ID NUMERIC(18,0) IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
FirstName VARCHAR(50) NULL,
LastName VARCHAR(50) NULL,

[Code] ....

If an INSERT looks like any of the following what can I do to change the NULL being assigned to DateAdded to a real date, preferable the value of GetDate() at the time of the insert? I've heard of INSTEAD of Triggers but I'm not trying tto over rise the entire INSERT or update just the on (maybe 2) fields that are being left as null or explicitly set to null. The same would apply for any UPDATE where DateModified is not specified or explicitly set to NULL. I would want to change it so that DateModified is not null on any UPDATE.

INSERT INTO dbo.MYTABLE( FirstName, LastName, DateAdded)
VALUES('John','Smith',NULL)

INSERT INTO dbo.MYTABLE( FirstName, LastName)
VALUES('John','Smith')

INSERT INTO dbo.MYTABLE( FirstName, LastName, DateAdded)
SELECT FirstName, LastName, NULL
FROM MYOTHERTABLE

How To Split A Field Into Two Fields

Apr 14, 2006

I have the following fields in table A:

GL_ID| Date |GL_Name_VC | Amount Period_TI|Year_SI
===============================================
1000|31/12/2005 | Sales | -8,000.00 | 12 | 2005
===============================================
1000|06/01/2006 | Sales | -6,000.00 | 01 | 2006
===============================================
1000|20/01/2006 | Sales | 2,000.00 | 01 | 2006
===============================================
1000|28/01/2006 | Sales | -4,000.00 | 01 | 2006

The above database is running on Microsoft SQL Server 2000 and i would like to query
for a report that looks something as below:

Period | Date | GL_Name_VC | Debit | Credit| Net Change | Balance
===============================================
01 |01/01/2006|Opening Bal | 0 | 0 | 0 | 8,000
01 |06/01/2006|Sales | 0 | 6,000 | 0 | 0
01 |20/01/2006|Sales | 2,000 | 0 | 0 | 0
01 |28/01/2006|Sales | 0 | 4,000 | 8,000 |6,000


The formula for the above calculated fields are as below:

Opening Balance = carried forward balance from Year 2005
Debit = All positive amount
Credit = All negative amount
Net Change = Total Credit - Total Debit in Period 01
Balance = Total of Net Change + Opening Bal

Guys, hope someone out there can help me with the sql command for the above report?
