I need to transpose one of the columns in the data date to a row of string and group by 2 other columns. My sample data consists of the following data:
I need the result to look like this:
That is all the LNs in one row per Employee code, per day.
I tried the below code -
DECLARE #Process_Conditions_Loans VARCHAR(500)
SELECT
t1.EmplCode,
t1.LogDate,
#Process_Conditions_Loans = CONCAT(COALESCE(#Process_Conditions_Loans + ',', ''),PS2)
FROM
#temp t1
WHERE
LN IS NOT NULL
GROUP BY
EmplCode, LogDate
But I am getting an error
A SELECT statement that assigns a value to a variable must not be combined with data-retrieval operations.
I can not use group_concat since I am using SQL Server 2016.
Any help would be great appreciated.
Thanks,
JH
You can use the older form of string aggregation:
select emplcode, logdate,
stuff( (select concat(', ', ln)
from t
where t.emplcode = el.emplcode and t.logdate = el.logdate
order by ln
for xml path ('')
), 1, 2, ''
)
from (select distinct emplcode, logdate
from t
) el

I have a table like this:
I want to concatenate the Product name in the given Product_order by ID.
Therefore, I should get something like: CC-TC-CA for ID 1.
you can use string_agg()- it'll work sql server 2016+
select id, string_Agg(product,',') as pname
from tablename
group by id
OR you can use stuff()
SELECT id,
STUFF((SELECT ',' + product
FROM tablename AS T1
WHERE T1.id = T2.id
FOR XML PATH('')), 1, 1, '')
FROM tablename AS T2
GROUP BY id
If you can use a stored procedure instead of a single query the += operator can do what you're looking for.
DECLARE #Product_order VARCHAR(100) = '';
SELECT #Product_order += Product + '-' FROM [table] WHERE id = 1 ORDER BY Product_Order;
SELECT SUBSTRING(#Product_order, 0, LEN(#Product_order));
Update: I've learned that returning multiple rows and using in an assignment in the select clause is unsupported behavior in SQL Server.
I have a table that save personnel code.
When I select from this table I get 3 rows result such as:
2129,3394,3508,3534
2129,3508
4056
I want when create select result combine in one row such as:
2129,3394,3508,3534,2129,3508,4056
or distinct value such as:
2129,3394,3508,3534,4056
You should ideally avoid storing CSV data at all in your tables. That being said, for your first result set we can try using STRING_AGG:
SELECT STRING_AGG(col, ',') AS output
FROM yourTable;
Your second requirement is more tricky, and we can try going through a table to remove duplicates:
WITH cte AS (
SELECT DISTINCT VALUE AS col
FROM yourTable t
CROSS APPLY STRING_SPLIT(t.col, ',')
)
SELECT STRING_AGG(col, ',') WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY CAST(col AS INT)) AS output
FROM cte;

I solved this by using STUFF and FOR XML PATH:
SELECT
STUFF((SELECT ',' + US.remain_uncompleted
FROM Table_request US
WHERE exclusive = 0 AND reqact = 1 AND reqend = 0
FOR XML PATH('')), 1, 1, '')
Thank you Tim
I have this query which is throwing a compilation error at the last ')'. The intellisense says 'Expected AS, ID or QUOTED_ID'.
What I am trying to do is - find the distinct values from the union of a table select and a function select, then get the count and update the column of another table with that value.
UPDATE #referees
SET [TotalKeywordCount] = (select count(*)
from (select Keyword
from [dbo].[RefereeFinderPersonKeyWord] P
where P.p_id=#referees.p_id
union
SELECT ltrim(rtrim(replace(Data, '''', '')))
from [SplitOne] (#keywords, ',')))
Any idea what I am doing wrong?
You need to add a name to the nested query that you use in the FROM of the query that pulls out the value for [TotalKeywordCount]. Below you have the code that assigns to it the name subquery:
UPDATE #referees
SET [TotalKeywordCount] = (select count(*) from (
select Keyword from [dbo].[RefereeFinderPersonKeyWord] P where P.p_id=#referees.p_id
union
SELECT ltrim(rtrim(replace(Data, '''', ''))) from [SplitOne] (#keywords, ',')) subquery )
I created this CTE that returns first and last names from 2 different tables. I would like to use the CTE to identify all of the records that have the same last names and the first name of one column starts with the same first letter of another column.
This is an example of the results of the CTE. I want the SELECT using the CTE to return only the highlighted results:
;WITH CTE AS
(
SELECT AD.FirstName AS AD_FirstName, AD.LastName AS AD_LastName, NotInAD.FirstName As NotInAD_FirstName, NotInAD.LastName As NotInAD_LastName
FROM PagingToolActiveDirectoryUsers AD JOIN
(
SELECT FirstName, LastName
FROM #PagingUsersParseName
EXCEPT
SELECT D.FirstName, D.LastName
FROM PagingToolActiveDirectoryUsers D
WHERE D.FirstName <> D.LastName AND D.LastName <> D.LoginName
AND D.LoginName LIKE '%[0-9]%[0-9]%'
) AS NotInAD ON NotInAD.LastName = AD.LastName
)
SELECT *
FROM CTE
WHERE (AD_LastName = NotInAD_LastName) AND (AD_FirstName LIKE ('''' + SUBSTRING(NotInAD_FirstName, 1, 1) + '%'''))
ORDER BY AD_LastName, AD_FirstName;
The result of this query returns no rows.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.
You're enclosing the string to be searched for with single-quotes, but it doesn't appear that the data in AD_FirstName has those single-quotes embedded in it. I suggest you replace the first line of the WHERE clause with
WHERE (AD_LastName = NotInAD_LastName) AND (AD_FirstName LIKE (SUBSTRING(NotInAD_FirstName, 1, 1) + '%'))
Best of luck.
I am facing a very isolated problem regarding to the dynamic sql query. I have two queries running on a single stored procedure. They are following
First query:
SELECT *
FROM (
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY viwPerformance.LastModifiedOn DESC) AS rowNumber,viwPerformance.* FROM viwPerformance WHERE OrgId=218 AND EmployeeId = 1668 AND IsTerminate = 0 AND TagId LIKE '%' + CAST(2893 AS VARCHAR) + '%' AND Archive='False' AND SmartGoalId IS NOT NULL
) AS E
WHERE rowNumber >= 1 AND
rowNumber < 11
it results all the column values and the SmartGoalId as
4471,2815,4751,4733,4863,4690,4691,4692,4693,4694
And the second query (here I need only SmartgoalId from the above query so I use stuff)
SELECT #strGoalIds = STUFF((SELECT ',' + CAST(SmartGoalId AS VARCHAR)
FROM (
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY viwPerformance.LastModifiedOn DESC) AS rowNumber,viwPerformance.* FROM viwPerformance WHERE OrgId=218 AND EmployeeId = 1668 AND IsTerminate = 0 AND TagId LIKE '%' + CAST(2893 AS VARCHAR) + '%' AND Archive='False' AND SmartGoalId IS NOT NULL
) AS E
WHERE rowNumber >= 1 AND
rowNumber < 11 FOR XML PATH('')), 1, 1, '')
and it's results the SmartgoalId as
4471,2815,4751,4733,4863,4651,4690,4691,4692,4693
Please note that the last id "4694" is not available from above query as the "4651"is added to it but it's not available from first query and this is correct that "4651" should not be in the second query result.
So my main point is why the second query gives different results as it's the same as the first query.
Note: Am I right that the Stuff function reversing the values and not giving them in correct order.
Because you have some rows with the same value for LastModifiedOn it depends how you want to handle ties.
If you want this query to always return the 10 most "recent" rows but always return the same ones when there are ties you can add another column to your ORDER BY viwPerformance.LastModifiedOn DESC clause that will make the sort unique and unchanging, like:
ORDER BY viwPerformance.LastModifiedOn,viwPerformance.SmartGoalId DESC)
