I have two tables, one table bill, and one table log.
Each bill has one log. Therefore there is a third table bill_log with two columns bill_id and log_id.
I want to select all columns from bill and logs in one statement with
bill_log.bill_id=bill.id and bill_log.log_id=log.id
I tried to join these tables, but it didn't work. Can anyone help?
select bill.*,log.* from bill
inner join bill_log on bill_log.bill_id=bill.id
inner join log on bill_log.log_id=log.id

I am trying to find the correct join construction to join together the relevant customer info from the Rentals table with the Accidents table. I often run into this issue where my joining fields aren't unique but not sure what else to join on. The accidents table only has about 1500 records but when I join it to pull in more customer data, I get like 35k records. I can do some joins but frequently have joins like this at work and I feel like a dummy because I am not sure how to troubleshoot...
SELECT a.*,
r.market,
r.date_of_birth,
r.is_blocked,
r.rate_type
FROM `accidents` a
LEFT JOIN `rentals` r -- I also tried an INNER JOIN
USING (customer_id) -- Other fields I tried to match on: Full Name
ORDER BY accident_dt DESC
I have a requirement below.
Now I have to get output like below
How can this be achieved ?
I have written the below SQL but parent_position_id is coming, not parent_position_code
select
hapf.position_code,
pphf.parent_position_id
from
hr_all_positions_f hapf, PER_POSITION_HIERARCHY_F pphf
where
hapf.position_id = pphf.position_id
Should I write a sub query? How should I proceed ?
This is Oracle SQL
Thanks,
Shivam
Noone ever said you could only join a table in once:
select
chi.position_code,
par.position_code as parent_position_code
from
hr_all_positions_f hapf
INNER JOIN PER_POSITION_HIERARCHY_F chi on hapf.position_id = chi.position_id
INNER JOIN PER_POSITION_HIERARCHY_F par on hapf.parent_position_id = par.position_id
Bear it in mind; I see people coming to thinking all the time that they can only join a table once. If one table decodes a value in 3 different columns, then you sure can join that same table in 3 times... Imagine if it were an address table, and a Student had a HomeAddressId, WorkAddressId and StudyAddressId, and the Address table held all these addresses - you'd join the addresses table to the Student table 3 times to get all the data..
I have table A with 1 million records and a table B with 10 million records. Table A can have new records not present in table B. How I can combine the two tables so the table C to have all the records from A and all the records from B but with updated records from A. Both tables A and B have a column ID by which both can be joined.
You have to run a query and follow these instructions.
I would construct the query using the Join clause. For example:
SELECT Orders.OrderID, Customers.CustomerName, Orders.OrderDate
FROM Orders
INNER JOIN Customers ON Orders.CustomerID=Customers.CustomerID;
Find a detailed explanation for the different types of Joins in BigQuery here.
i have a query which is used to generate reports. There are multiple fields to be displayed. One requirement is such that i need to join one table to different tables with different aliases for data. e.g., table 1 employee id with employee table for knowing the full name. similarly table 2 employee id with employee table for table 2 employee id full name. PFB the query:
select * from office o
left join employee e
on e.id=o.id
left join master m
on m.id=o.id
left join student s1
on e.id=s1.id
left join student s2
on m.id=s2.id
Can we optimize this query to use only one join statement of student table instead of multiple table join statement? I need to reduce the number of tables used in the query since i'm getting the error as too many tables in the query maximum allowed is 50. Please help. Appreciate.

No, I would not call it query optimization. However, for reporting purposes you reduce the joins by creating views.

Hi I have an SQL table which has two tables which make reference to the same foreign key in a separate table twice... something like
SALES table
idSales idClient1 idClient2
1 1 2
CLIENT table
idClient ClientName
1 Bob
2 Mick
I want to join the SALES table to the CLIENT table and return data as follows:
idSales idClientClientName1 idClientClientName2
1 Bob Mick
Can anyone help with the SQL for this? I'm getting ambiguous column name errors on my join.
Thank you
You need to basically join table Client on table Sales twice because there are two columns on table Sales that are dependent on table Client.
SELECT a.idSales,
b.ClientName ClientName1,
c.ClientName ClientName2
FROM Sales a
INNER JOIN Client b
ON a.idClient1 = b.idClient
INNER JOIN Client c
ON a.idClient2 = c.idClient
To further gain more knowledge about joins, kindly visit the link below:
Visual Representation of SQL Joins
But when one of the columns or both columns are nullable, INNER JOIN will not give you all records from Sales because it will only select where it has atleast one match on the other table. Instead use LEFT JOIN.
I might add that in cases like this, I use table aliases that hint at what entity you are linking to in the joined table. If for example, the foreign keys were to an address table, and you had a work address, and a Home address, I would use tables aliases of h and w for the two joins. In your case, i.e.,
Selext s.idSales,
c1.ClientName ClientName1,
c2.ClientName ClientName2
From Sales s
Join Client c1
On c1.idClient = s.idClient1
Join Client c2
On c2.idClient = s.idClient2
For those beginner SQL folks who may see this question in the future, it's helpful to add in the AS words, it makes it clearer still:
SELECT
Sale.idSales,
c1.ClientName AS ClientName1,
c2.ClientName AS ClientName2
FROM
Sales AS Sale
INNER JOIN Client AS c1 ON Sale.idClient1 = c1.idClient
INNER JOIN Client AS c2 ON Sale.idClient2 = c2.idClient
