Nesting queries on JOINS and top1 with ties - sql

Question

I am trying to use the result of the below SQL query-1 such that I can make another JOIN on this with my second query result to retrieve Fundsrc on the common ID - Project.
QUERY 1-
SELECT top 1 with ties
t.project, r.rel_value AS "FundSrc" ,r.date_to
from atsproject t
LEFT OUTER JOIN aglrelvalue r ON(t.client=r.client AND r.rel_attr_id='ZB18' AND r.attribute_id='B0' AND t.project=r.att_value)
WHERE r.date_To > '04/30/2020' and status='n'
ORDER BY row_number() over (partition by t.project order by t.project, r.rel_value)
I cannot put the JOIN inside the above query as it will mess with the result. Instead, if I can do a nesting on this then I think that should solve the issue.
My second query is -
SELECT
t.project,t.work_order as activity, r1.labor_funding_source2_fx AS "Designated Labour Funding"
FROM atsworkorder t
LEFT OUTER JOIN afxactlaborfund r1 ON( t.work_order = r1.dim_value AND t.client = r1.client AND r1.attribute_id = 'BF')
WHERE t.client='PC' and t.status = 'N'
The Output should be -
t.project,t.work_order from query 2 + Fundsrc from Query 1, with the common id on Project ID.
Any suggestions on this is highly appreciated.

You can wrap 'subqueries' in parenthesis and then join them.
Can you try this?:
SELECT *
FROM (
SELECT top 1 with ties t.project,
r.rel_value AS "FundSrc",
r.date_to
FROM atsproject t
LEFT OUTER JOIN aglrelvalue r
ON t.client=r.client
AND r.rel_attr_id='ZB18'
AND r.attribute_id='B0'
AND t.project=r.att_value
WHERE r.date_To > '04/30/2020' and status='n'
ORDER BY row_number() over (partition by t.project order by t.project, r.rel_value)
) AS TABLE_1
LEFT JOIN
(
SELECT t.project,
t.work_order as activity,
r1.labor_funding_source2_fx AS "Designated Labour Funding"
FROM atsworkorder t
LEFT OUTER JOIN afxactlaborfund r1
ON t.work_order = r1.dim_value
AND t.client = r1.client
AND r1.attribute_id = 'BF'
WHERE t.client='PC' and t.status = 'N'
) AS TABLE_2
ON TABLE_1.PROJECT = TABLE2.PROJECT
I am pretty sure an ORDER BY clause will not work within a subquery. Thus, this should probably work:
SELECT *
FROM (
SELECT t.project,
r.rel_value AS "FundSrc",
r.date_to,
row_number() over (partition by t.project order by t.project, r.rel_value) AS MY_RANKING
FROM atsproject t
LEFT OUTER JOIN aglrelvalue r
ON t.client=r.client
AND r.rel_attr_id='ZB18'
AND r.attribute_id='B0'
AND t.project=r.att_value
WHERE r.date_To > '04/30/2020' and status='n'
) AS TABLE_1
LEFT JOIN
(
SELECT t.project,
t.work_order as activity,
r1.labor_funding_source2_fx AS "Designated Labour Funding"
FROM atsworkorder t
LEFT OUTER JOIN afxactlaborfund r1
ON t.work_order = r1.dim_value
AND t.client = r1.client
AND r1.attribute_id = 'BF'
WHERE t.client='PC' and t.status = 'N'
) AS TABLE_2
ON TABLE_1.PROJECT = TABLE2.PROJECT
WHERE TABLE_1.MY_RANKING = 1
Note: On your formatting, wrap words within ` when they refer to code. They will look like this.
Wrap blocks of code within three of those (three at the beginning and at the end). It will look like the blocks of code above.
