Suppose the following easy scenario, where a product row gets connected to one primary category, subcategory, and sub-subcategory.
DECLARE #PRODUCTS TABLE (ID int, DESCRIPTION varchar(50), CAT varchar(30), SUBCAT varchar(30), SUBSUBCAT varchar(30));
INSERT #PRODUCTS (ID, DESCRIPTION, CAT, SUBCAT, SUBSUBCAT) VALUES
(1, 'NIKE MILLENIUM', '1', '10', '100'),
(2, 'NIKE CORTEZ', '1', '12', '104'),
(3, 'ADIDAS PANTS', '2', '27', '238'),
(4, 'PUMA REVOLUTION 5', '3', '35', '374'),
(5, 'SALOMON SHELTER CS', '4', '15', '135'),
(6, 'NIKE EBERNON LOW', '2', '14', '157');
DECLARE #CATS TABLE (ID int, DESCR varchar(100));
INSERT #CATS (ID, DESCR) VALUES
(1, 'MEN'),
(2, 'WOMEN'),
(3, 'UNISEX'),
(4, 'KIDS'),
(5, 'TEENS'),
(6, 'BACK TO SCHOOL');
DECLARE #SUBCATS TABLE (ID int, DESCR varchar(100));
INSERT #SUBCATS (ID, DESCR) VALUES
(10, 'FOOTWEAR'),
(12, 'OUTERWEAR'),
(14, 'SWIMWEAR'),
(15, 'HOODIES'),
(27, 'CLOTHING'),
(35, 'SPORTS');
DECLARE #SUBSUBCATS TABLE (ID int, DESCR varchar(100));
INSERT #SUBSUBCATS (ID, DESCR) VALUES
(100, 'RUNNING'),
(104, 'ZIP TOPS'),
(135, 'FLEECE'),
(157, 'BIKINIS'),
(238, 'PANTS'),
(374, 'JOGGERS');
SELECT prod.ID,
prod.DESCRIPTION,
CONCAT(cat1.DESCR, ' > ', cat2.DESCR, ' > ', cat3.DESCR) AS CATEGORIES
FROM #PRODUCTS AS prod
LEFT JOIN #CATS AS cat1 ON cat1.ID = prod.CAT
LEFT JOIN #SUBCATS AS cat2 ON cat2.ID = prod.SUBCAT
LEFT JOIN #SUBSUBCATS AS cat3 ON cat3.ID = prod.SUBSUBCAT;
Now suppose that the foreign keys on #PRODUCTS table aren't just indices to their respective tables. They are comma-separated indices to more than one categories, subcategories, and sub-subcategories like here.
DECLARE #PRODUCTS TABLE (ID int, DESCRIPTION varchar(50), CAT varchar(30), SUBCAT varchar(30), SUBSUBCAT varchar(30));
INSERT #PRODUCTS (ID, DESCRIPTION, CAT, SUBCAT, SUBSUBCAT) VALUES
(1, 'NIKE MILLENIUM', '1, 2', '10, 12', '100, 135'),
(2, 'NIKE CORTEZ', '1, 5', '12, 15', '104, 374'),
(3, 'ADIDAS PANTS', '2, 6', '27, 35', '238, 374');
DECLARE #CATS TABLE (ID int, DESCR varchar(100));
INSERT #CATS (ID, DESCR) VALUES
(1, 'MEN'),
(2, 'WOMEN'),
(3, 'UNISEX'),
(4, 'KIDS'),
(5, 'TEENS'),
(6, 'BACK TO SCHOOL');
DECLARE #SUBCATS TABLE (ID int, DESCR varchar(100));
INSERT #SUBCATS (ID, DESCR) VALUES
(10, 'FOOTWEAR'),
(12, 'OUTERWEAR'),
(14, 'SWIMWEAR'),
(15, 'HOODIES'),
(27, 'CLOTHING'),
(35, 'SPORTS');
DECLARE #SUBSUBCATS TABLE (ID int, DESCR varchar(100));
INSERT #SUBSUBCATS (ID, DESCR) VALUES
(100, 'RUNNING'),
(104, 'ZIP TOPS'),
(135, 'FLEECE'),
(157, 'BIKINIS'),
(238, 'PANTS'),
(374, 'JOGGERS');
SELECT prod.ID,
prod.DESCRIPTION
--CONCAT(cat1.DESCR, ' > ', cat2.DESCR, ' > ', cat3.DESCR) AS CATEGORIES
FROM #PRODUCTS AS prod
--LEFT JOIN #CATS AS cat1 ON cat1.ID = prod.CAT
--LEFT JOIN #SUBCATS AS cat2 ON cat2.ID = prod.SUBCAT
--LEFT JOIN #SUBSUBCATS AS cat3 ON cat3.ID = prod.SUBSUBCAT;
In this case I want to achieve the following:
Be able to retrieve the respective names of the cats, subcats, sub-subcats, ie. for cats '1, 2' be able to retrieve their names (I tried LEFT JOIN #CATS AS cat1 ON cat1.ID IN prod.CAT but it doesn't work)
Create triplets of the corresponding cats, subcats, sub-subcats, ie. for
cats '1, 2'
subcats '12, 17'
sub-subcats '239, 372'
(after retrieving the appropriate names) create pipe-separated category routes like name of cat 1 > name of subcat 12 > name of sub-subcat 239 | name of cat 2 > name of subcat 17 > name of sub-subcat 372
So, for a row like (1, 'NIKE MILLENIUM', '1, 2', '10, 12', '100, 135'),
I would like to get the following result
ID
DESCRIPTION
CATEGORIES
1
NIKE MILLENIUM
MEN > FOOTWEAR > RUNNING # WOMEN > OUTERWEAR > FLEECE (I had to use # as the delimiter of the two triplets because pipe messed with the table's columns)
In case the user stupidly stores more cat IDs than subcat IDs, or sub-subcat IDs, the query should just match the ones that have a corresponding position match, ie for
cats '1, 2'
subcats '12'
sub-subcats '239, 372'
it should just create one triplet, like name of 1 > name of 12 > name of 239
STRING_SPLIT() does not promise to return the values in a specific order, so it won't work in this case as ordinal position matters.
Use OPENJSON() split the string into separate rows to ensure the values are returned in the same order.
OPENJSON() also returns a key field, so you can join on the row number within each grouping. You'll want an INNER JOIN since your requirement is that all values in that "column" must exist.
Use STUFF() to assemble the various cat>subcat>subsubcat values.

Totally separate answer because of the change to older technology. I think my original answer is still good for folks using current SQL Server versions, so I don't want to remove it.
I don't remember where I got the function. When I found it today it was named split_delimiter. I changed the name, added some comments, and incorporated the ability to have a delimiter that is more than one character long.

Well that should do work, i changed your character ">" for "-" just for see the data more simple.
the design of your tables is not perfect but the first try almost never is.

cross apply(

ORDER BY SNAME, PNAME
The result set is correct. Although I want to know if there any other optimized way of writing it in SQL. Since both the tables will grow extremely large in size.
Thanks.
I think I would be more inclined to write this as a LEFT JOIN:
SELECT d.SName, d.PName,
SUM(CASE WHEN de.ExSname IS NOT NULL THEN 0 ELSE SoldCount END) AS SoldCount,
SUM(Value) AS Value
FROM #Details d LEFT JOIN
#DetailsException de
ON de.ExSName = d.SName AND de.ExPName = d.PNAme
GROUP BY d.SNAME, d.PNAME
ORDER BY d.SNAME, d.PNAME;
However, your method is fine.
Considering the ExSName, ExPName is unique in
Here is another way using LEFT JOIN.
SELECT SName,
PName,
Sum(CASE
WHEN de.ExSName IS NULL THEN ( SoldCount )
ELSE 0
END) AS SoldCount,
Sum(Value) AS Value
FROM #Details d
LEFT JOIN (select distinct ExSName,ExPName from #DetailsException) de
ON de.ExSName = d.SName
AND de.ExPName = d.PNAme
GROUP BY SNAME,
PNAME
ORDER BY SNAME,
PNAME
Check the performance by running the queries. You can create Non-clustered index on SName,PNAme column to improve the performance
CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX IX_details_temp
ON #Details (SNAME, PNAME)
include (SoldCount, Value);
Added covering index (SoldCount, Value) to avoid Clustered/Heap lookup. Note, Index will be useful only if you are going to filter records from #details table. And for #DetailsException table creating the below index could be helpful
CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX IX_DetailsException_temp
ON #DetailsException (ExSName, ExPName)
I want to insert multiple rows in a single table. How can I do this using single insert statement?
Wrap each row of values to be inserted in brackets/parenthesis (value1, value2, value3) and separate the brackets/parenthesis by comma for as many as you wish to insert into the table.
INSERT INTO example
VALUES
(100, 'Name 1', 'Value 1', 'Other 1'),
(101, 'Name 2', 'Value 2', 'Other 2'),
(102, 'Name 3', 'Value 3', 'Other 3'),
(103, 'Name 4', 'Value 4', 'Other 4');
You can use SQL Bulk Insert Statement
BULK INSERT TableName
FROM 'filePath'
WITH
(
FIELDTERMINATOR = '','',
ROWTERMINATOR = ''\n'',
ROWS_PER_BATCH = 10000,
FIRSTROW = 2,
TABLOCK
)
for more reference check
https://www.google.co.in/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=sql%20bulk%20insert
You Can Also Bulk Insert Your data from Code as well
for that Please check below Link:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/439843/Handling-BULK-Data-insert-from-CSV-to-SQL-Server
1--> {Simple Insertion when table column sequence is known}
Insert into Table1
values(1,2,...)
2--> {Simple insertion mention column}
Insert into Table1(col2,col4)
values(1,2)
3--> {bulk insertion when num of selected collumns of a table(#table2) are equal to Insertion table(Table1) }
Insert into Table1 {Column sequence}
Select * -- column sequence should be same.
from #table2
4--> {bulk insertion when you want to insert only into desired column of a table(table1)}
Insert into Table1 (Column1,Column2 ....Desired Column from Table1)
Select Column1,Column2..desired column from #table2
You can use UNION All clause to perform multiple insert in a table.
ex:
INSERT INTO dbo.MyTable (ID, Name)
SELECT 123, 'Timmy'
UNION ALL
SELECT 124, 'Jonny'
UNION ALL
SELECT 125, 'Sally'
Check here
For MSSQL, there are two ways:(Consider you have a 'users' table,below both examples are using this table for example)
1) In case, you need to insert different values in users table. Then you can write statement like:
INSERT INTO USERS VALUES
(2, 'Michael', 'Blythe'),
(3, 'Linda', 'Mitchell'),
(4, 'Jillian', 'Carson'),
(5, 'Garrett', 'Vargas');
2) Another case, if you need to insert same value for all rows(for example, 10 rows you need to insert here). Then you can use below sample statement:
INSERT INTO USERS VALUES
(2, 'Michael', 'Blythe')
GO 10
Hope this helps.
You can use the UNION ALL function

We will import the CSV file into the destination table in the simplest form. I placed my sample CSV file on the C: drive and now we will create a table which we will import data from the CSV file.
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS Sales
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Sales](
[Region] [varchar](50) ,
[Country] [varchar](50) ,
[ItemType] [varchar](50) NULL,
[SalesChannel] [varchar](50) NULL,
[OrderPriority] [varchar](50) NULL,
[OrderDate] datetime,
[OrderID] bigint NULL,
[ShipDate] datetime,
[UnitsSold] float,
[UnitPrice] float,
[UnitCost] float,
[TotalRevenue] float,
[TotalCost] float,
[TotalProfit] float
)
The following BULK INSERT statement imports the CSV file to the Sales table.
BULK INSERT Sales
FROM 'C:\1500000 Sales Records.csv'
WITH (FIRSTROW = 2,
FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',
ROWTERMINATOR='\n' );
