I need to concatinate results from 2 tables without using UNION.
Ex : I have 4 tables a, b, c, d. see below snips:
Table a:
Table b:
Table c:
Table d:
I am concatinating a and d results using UNION ALL like below:
select a.id,a.seq,a.item,b.des,c.qty from a
left join b on a.item = b.item
left join c on a.id = c.id and a.seq = c.seq
UNION ALL
select d.id,d.seq,d.item,d.des,c.qty from d
join c on d.id = c.id and d.seq = c.seq
My output:
But I need same result without using UNION ALL.
Is it possible if so HOW?
You can apply Full Outer join instead of Union which has its similarities to Union
SELECT a.id,a.seq,a.item,b.des,c.qty
FROM a left join b on a.item = b.item
left join c on a.id = c.id and a.seq = c.seq
FULL OUTER JOIN
(
SELECT d.id,d.seq,d.item,d.des,c.qty
FROM d join c on d.id = c.id and d.seq = c.seq
)x ON a.id = x.id
You can replace union all with full join with a "false" condition and lots of COALESCE()s.
The logic looks like this:
SELECT COALESCE(abc.id, cd.id) as id,
COALESCE(abc.seq, cd.seq) as seq,
COALESCE(abc.item, cd.item) as item,
COALESCE(abc.des, cd.des) as eesc,
COALESCE(abc.qty, cd.qty) as qty
FROM (SELECT a.id, a.seq, a.item, b.des, c.qty
FROM a LEFT JOIN
b
ON a.item = b.item LEFT JOIN
c
ON a.id = c.id AND a.seq = c.seq
) abc FULL JOIN
(SELECT d.id, d.seq, d.item, d.des, c.qty
FROM d JOIN
c
ON d.id = c.id AND d.seq = c.seq
) dc
ON 1 = 0; -- never evaluates to true
There is a LEFT JOIN from table 'a' to table 'c' (on 'id' and 'seq' columns) in the upper query and INNER JOIN from table 'd' to table 'c' in the lower query. Therefore I think you could LEFT JOIN from table 'c' to table 'd' and it would produce the correct output.
select a.id,a.seq,a.item,b.des,c.qty
from a
left join b on a.item = b.item
left join c on a.id = c.id and a.seq = c.seq
left join d on c.id = d.id and c.seq = d.seq;
If you want you can use INSERT INTO a (tmp) table and get the same result in a table.

I need to get the result of subtract values from these 3 different tables in SQL Server.
This is my SQL:
SELECT COUNT(A.Id)
FROM Table_A AS A WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE A.City = 'NewYork'
SELECT COUNT(B.Id)
FROM Table_B AS B WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE B.City = 'England'
SELECT COUNT(C.Id)
FROM Table_C AS C WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE C.City = 'Berlin'
Let's say the result of the first query is 9, and the second one is 1, and the third one is 3.
I need to get (9-1-3 = 5). How can I do this?
You can do this with a CTE or with subqueries.
Using a CTE:
WITH tbla AS (
SELECT COUNT(A.Id) A
FROM Table_A AS A
WHERE A.City = 'NewYork'
),
tblb AS (
SELECT COUNT(B.Id) B
FROM Table_B AS B
WHERE B.City = 'England'
),
tblc AS (
SELECT COUNT(C.Id) C
FROM Table_C AS C
WHERE C.City = 'Berlin'
)
SELECT a.A - b.B - c.C
FROM tbla a
CROSS JOIN tblb b
CROSS JOIN tblc c;
Same thing only with subqueries
SELECT a.A - b.B - c.C
FROM (
SELECT COUNT(A.Id) A
FROM Table_A AS A
WHERE A.City = 'NewYork'
) a
CROSS JOIN (
SELECT COUNT(B.Id) B
FROM Table_B AS B
WHERE B.City = 'England'
) b
CROSS JOIN (
SELECT COUNT(C.Id) C
FROM Table_C AS C
WHERE C.City = 'Berlin'
) c;
Note: I removed the WITH (NOLOCK) hints because in all likelihood they are not needed in this case.
As all queries return a scalar value 8one row one column you can simply add or subtract them
SELECT
(SELECT
COUNT(A.Id)
FROM
Table_A AS A
WHERE
A.City = 'NewYork') - (SELECT
COUNT(B.Id)
FROM
Table_B AS B
WHERE
B.City = 'England') - (SELECT
COUNT(C.Id)
FROM
Table_C AS C
WHERE
C.City = 'Berlin') as Whatever
I've below query, into which I'm creating using a subquery which is returning
ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one-row error.
But I want all the values that subquery is returning, and there is no other column left for the join condition. Below is my sample query.
select name,
dob,
cdate,
(select value
from item a,
books b
where a.id = b.id
and a.newid = b.newid
and a.id = s.id
and a.bid = s.cid
and a.eventid=1) col_value,
(select value2
from item a,
books b
where a.id = b.id
and a.newid = b.newid
and a.id = s.id
and a.bid = s.cid
and a.eventid=1) col_value2
from sample s,
purchase p
where s.id = p.id
and s.cid = p.cid
Desired Output
Do I need to apply a Group By? Please let me know your suggestions.
It is little bit more difficult without data but try:
select name -- please use table alias so you know which table the value is from (s, p or cv)
, dob
, cdate
, cv.value
from sample s
left join purchase p on s.id=p.id and s.cid=p.cid --or just join
left join (select value, a.id, a.bid --or just join
from item a
left join books b --or just join
on a.id=b.id and a.newid=b.newid) cv
on cv.id = s.id and cv.bid = s.cid
left join (select value2
from item a
left join books b
on a.id = b.id and a.newid = b.newid) cv2
on cv2.id = s.id and cv2.bid = s.cid
where cv2.eventid=1;
select name,
dob,
cdate,
(select value
from
books b
where a.id = b.id
and a.newid = b.newid ) col_value,
(select value2
from
books b
where a.id = b.id
and a.newid = b.newid ) col_value2
from sample s,
purchase p,item a
where s.id = p.id
and s.cid = p.cid
and a.id(+)=s.id
and a.bid(+)=s.cid
and a.eventid(+)=1
I need make a decision which table should be use in join statement depend on values in another table
I tried using CASE and COALESCE but can't achieve any success.
TableA has A and B and C and many other columns
TableB has ID and NAME columns
TableC has ID and NAME columns
My select statement is;
Select A.D, A.E, A.F From TableA A
If A.E = 1 then the following join should be used
left outer join TableB B ON A.B = B.ID
and B.NAME should be returned in the select statement
If A.E = 2 then the following join should be used
left outer join TableC C ON A.B = C.ID
and C.NAME should be returned in the select statement
Just add your conditions to the joins, and then use a case statement to pull the correct field to your result set e.g.
select A.D, A.E, A.F
, case when B.[Name] is not null then B.[Name] else C.[Name] end [Name]
from TableA A
left outer join TableB B ON A.B = B.ID and A.E = 1
left outer join TableC C ON A.B = C.ID and A.E = 2
Join tablea with the union of tableb with an extra column with value 1 and tablec with an extra column with value 2 and apply the conditions in the ON clause:
select
a.D, a.E, a.F, u.NAME
from tablea a
left join (
select *, 1 col from tableb
union all
select *, 2 col from tablec
) u on a.B = u.id and a.E = u.col
I've got two queries that return single result.
They look something like this
// query 1
SELECT A.id FROM tableA A
INNER JOIN tableB B
ON B.id = A.id
WHERE b.status = 'ACTIVE'
// query 2
SELECT C.id FROM tableC C
WHERE c.status = 'ACTIVE'
How to combine them and make return the pair of values instead of one value from different queries? I mean to get something like [A.id, C.id]
Currently I have to use two queries in the applications and I want to combine them into one.
I think like this will do
SELECT (SELECT A.id FROM tableA A
INNER JOIN tableB B
ON B.id = A.id
WHERE b.status = 'ACTIVE'
) as 'query1',
(
SELECT C.id FROM tableC C
WHERE c.status = 'ACTIVE'
) as 'query2'
As your question is not clear, so i assume that you either needids from mentioned queries in one row or in different rows, you can use union all/union (provided that datatypes are compatible or implicitly convertible and duplicates or allowed or not) as below.
Combining Result in different rows.
SELECT A.id
FROM tableA A
INNER JOIN tableB B
ON B.id = A.id
WHERE b.status = 'ACTIVE'
union all
SELECT C.id
FROM tableC C
WHERE c.status = 'ACTIVE'
Combining Result in Single Row.
select max(id1), max(id2)
from(
SELECT A.id as id1, NULL as id2
FROM tableA A
INNER JOIN tableB B
ON B.id = A.id
WHERE b.status = 'ACTIVE'
union all
SELECT NULL, C.id
FROM tableC C
WHERE c.status = 'ACTIVE'
) t;
SAMPLE DEMO
You can run following query which work fine for me:
select t1.id as aid ,t2.id as cid
from (
SELECT A.id
FROM tableA A
INNER JOIN tableB B ON B.id = A.id
WHERE b.status = 'ACTIVE'
) t1
full outer join (
SELECT C.id
FROM tableC C
WHERE c.status = 'ACTIVE'
) t2 on t1.id=t2.id
You can join your second query with your first query as follows, so that you will get two (A.id, C.id) values in one query...
SELECT A.ID,C.ID FROM
(SELECT A.ID FROM table_A A INNER JOIN
table_B B ON A.ID=B.ID WHERE B.STATUS='A')A
INNER JOIN table_c C
ON C.ID=A.ID WHERE C.STATUS='A';
i have four tables which are related like this:
TABLE A: 1 to many with TABLE B
TABLE B: 1 to many with TABLE C
TABLE D: many to 1 with TABLE B
I would like to create a result set which contains no duplicates.
SELECT A.f1
A.f2
B.f1
C.f1
D.f1
from A LEFT JOIN (B INNER JOIN D on D.fk_b = B.id) on A.id = B.fk_a
LEFT JOIN C on C.fk_b = B.id
Some but not all records are duplicated. Only the records from TABLE D which have the same FK to TABLE B.
If there are 2 the same D.fk_B fields then i would like to select only the first one. My INNER JOIN would become something like:
B INNER JOIN TOP 1 D on.....
But that's not possible?
Thank you!
Assuming that the structure in question is near the one shown bellow,
The following SELECT statement will show you just the primary keys, briefly giving an idea about what data is being returned.
SELECT
A.id AS `A_id`,
B.id AS `B_id`,
COALESCE(C.id, 0) AS `C_id`,
COALESCE(
(SELECT D.id FROM D WHERE D.fk_b = B.id LIMIT 1), 0
) AS `D_id`
FROM B
INNER JOIN A ON (B.fk_a = A.id)
LEFT JOIN C ON (B.id = C.fk_b);
Now the select you've asked for:
SELECT
A.f1 AS `A_f1`,
A.f2 AS `A_f2`,
B.f1 AS `B_f1`,
COALESCE(C.f1, '-') AS `C_f1`,
COALESCE(
(SELECT D.f1 FROM D WHERE D.fk_b = B.id LIMIT 1), '-'
) AS `D_f1`
FROM B
INNER JOIN A ON (B.fk_a = A.id)
LEFT JOIN C ON (B.id = C.fk_b);
Code above was tested and worked fine on MySQL 5.6
It appears that you have cartesian join.
You could try just putting DISTINCT infront of you column definition or you could so subqueries to link the tables together.
Try
SELECT DISTINCT A.f1
A.f2
B.f1
C.f1
D.f1
from A LEFT JOIN (B INNER JOIN D on D.fk_b = B.id) on A.id = B.fk_a
LEFT JOIN C on C.fk_b = B.id
You can do this:
B INNER JOIN TOP 1 D on.....
Like this
B INNER JOIN (SELECT TOP 1 fields from table) D ON ...
Try this:
SELECT DISTINCT A.f1
A.f2
B.f1
C.f1
D.f1
from A
LEFT JOIN (B INNER JOIN (SELECT DISTINCT fk_b FROM D) D on D.fk_b = B.id)
on A.id = B.fk_a
LEFT JOIN C on C.fk_b = B.id
