I have table1 and table2 (both have the same columns), I want to insert all records in table2 into table1 if they do not exists in table1, overwise I want to update table1's columns with all non NULL columns of table2.
I didnt manage to find a way to produce one sql that does both things.
As for the first part i manged with INSERT OR IGNORE.
The 2nd part is the problem.
This is what i have:
UPDATE main.datas
SET ot=(
SELECT ot FROM cards.datas
WHERE main.datas.id = cards.datas.id AND cards.datas.ot <> NULL
);
problem is, is that the whole (SELECT...) return NULL because of the cards.datas.ot <> NULL part. i tried doing cards.datas.ot IS NOT NULL instead but it just ignores it and sets NULL values as well.
Put the WHERE ... IS NOT NULL condition in the UPDATE statement:
UPDATE main.datas
SET ot = (SELECT ot FROM cards.datas WHERE main.datas.id = cards.datas.id)
WHERE (SELECT ot FROM cards.datas WHERE main.datas.id = cards.datas.id) is not null
or use coalesce():
UPDATE main.datas
SET ot=coalesce((
SELECT ot FROM cards.datas
WHERE main.datas.id = cards.datas.id AND cards.datas.ot IS NOT NULL
), ot);
The typical way to write this uses not exists:
UPDATE main.datas md
SET ot = (SELECT cd.ot
FROM cards.datas cd
WHERE md.id = cd.id AND cd.ot IS NOT NULL
)
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT cd.ot
FROM cards.datas cd
WHERE md.id = cd.id AND cd.ot IS NOT NULL
);
This runs the risk of an error if the first subquery returns more than one row. For that reason, you might want to include LIMIT 1 or an aggregation function.

I want to perform an update for the results of a select query.
SELECT
a.reason,
n.note
FROM applications a
LEFT JOIN notes n on n.app_id = a.app_id
AND n.note LIKE '%old%'
WHERE a.code = 'run' AND a.reason IS NULL
I thought I could perform these updates separately wrapping the select in an update however I get the error ORA-01733: virtual column not allowed here. How can I go about performing these updates?
UPDATE (
SELECT
a.reason AS Reason
FROM applications a
LEFT JOIN notes n on n.app_id = a.app_id
AND n.note LIKE '%old%'
WHERE a.code = 'run' AND a.reason IS NULL
) SET Reason = null
UPDATE (
SELECT
n.note AS Note
FROM applications a
LEFT JOIN notes n on n.app_id = a.app_id
AND n.note LIKE '%old%'
WHERE a.code = 'run' AND a.reason IS NULL
) SET Note = null
You can't update the two tables at the same time. You need two different update statements as follows:
Updating the APPLICATIONS table is quite easy as all the records of the APPLICATIONS table having a.code = 'run' AND a.reason IS NULL will be there in your SELECT query.
UPDATE APPLICATIONS A
SET
REASON = NULL
WHERE A.CODE = 'run'
AND A.REASON IS NULL;
To update the NOTES table, you can use the EXISTS clause as follows:
UPDATE NOTES N
SET
NOTE = NULL
WHERE EXISTS (
SELECT 1
FROM APPLICATIONS A
WHERE N.APP_ID = A.APP_ID
AND A.CODE = 'run'
AND A.REASON IS NULL
)
AND N.NOTE LIKE '%old%'
You must update the NOTES table first and then APPLICATIONS table as while updating the NOTES table you are using the condition A. REASON IS NULL but while updating the APPLICATIONS table, you are updating the REASON column.
I am trying to use a case statement with sub query in a Update statement but I am facing an Issue like

Please help me to solve this issue
Your current CASE expression is missing its END. That aside, I see even bigger problems with your UPDATE statement. Redshift is based on an old version of Postgres, and hence I expect that it would adhere to the same syntax Postgres would use for an update join:
UPDATE table1 AS t1
SET some_column = t2.some_other_column
FROM table2 AS t2
WHERE t1.id = t2.id
Applying this syntax to your current query along with the fix for the CASE expression leaves us with the following:
update r_gl.ac tgt
set meeting_cost = case when currency_code = 'IND'
then tgt.amount
else round(tgt.amount) end
from
(
select distinct
a.frm_cur,
a.to_cur,
a.exch_rate
from b_gl.currncy_conv_dim a
inner join r_gl.ac b
on (a.frm_cur = 123 and a.to_cur = b.cur_cd and f_rate = 'ABC')
inner join b_gl.int_fg
on b.in_s=c.in_s and a.cal_sk = trunc(c.intact_dt_key,-2)
) src
where tgt.cur_cd = src.to_cur
The table to which you are joining r_gl.ac has no effect on the data being used to update, but rather would only affect the update by targeting certain rows. If this be not your intended logic, then you might have to rethink the entire query.
How would my output change if I remove exists statement from the following query.
UPDATE AR_CRDT C
set (OPERATOR_ID,UPDT_TS) = ( SELECT AD.OPERATOR_ID,sysdate
FROM
(
Select A.*
FROM AR1_CUSTOMER_CREDIT A
)AD
WHERE AD.CREDIT_ID = C.CRDT_ID
)
where exists ( SELECT 1
FROM
(
Select A.*
FROM AR1_CUSTOMER_CREDIT A
)AD
WHERE AD.CREDIT_ID = C.CRDT_ID
);
If you remove the exists, then OPERATOR_ID and UPDT_TS would be set to NULL for rows where the conditions do not match.
Why would you write this with the extra subqueries?
UPDATE AR_CRDT C
SET (OPERATOR_ID, UPDT_TS) = (SELECT AD.OPERATOR_ID, sysdate
FROM AR1_CUSTOMER_CREDIT A
WHERE A.CREDIT_ID = C.CRDT_ID
)
WHERE EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM AR1_CUSTOMER_CREDIT A
WHERE A.CREDIT_ID = C.CRDT_ID
);
The EXISTS currently causes the updates to AR_CRDT to be limited to those records where the AR_CRDT record is associated with an AR1_CUSTOMER_CREDIT record.
Removing that clause will mean that ALL records of AR_CRDT will be updated. Some will have values for the sub-query and some will be NULL where there is no link between AR_CRDT and AR1_CUSTOMER_CREDIT.
I am trying to insert only those records into #AltDealNames table for which DealName exists in #DistDeal table but not in #AltDealNames table. For this I am trying not exists clause. But it is not working as expected. Query is simply dumping records into #AltDealNames table.
insert into #AltDealNames
select d.DealName, d.ManagerScrubbed, d.BbgDealName, t.TrancheName, t.StreetCusip, t.ISIN, t.BbgTrancheName
from metric..Deal d join metric..Tranche t on d.DealName = t.DealName
where not exists(select 1 from #DistDeal dd join #AltDealNames ad on ad.DealName = dd.DealName)
Please help me to know if I am doing something wrong while building query.
If I understand correctly, you want an exists clause for #DistDeal and a not exists for #AltDealNames:
insert into #AltDealNames
select d.DealName, d.ManagerScrubbed, d.BbgDealName, t.TrancheName,
t.StreetCusip, t.ISIN, t.BbgTrancheName
from metric..Deal d join
metric..Tranche t
on d.DealName = t.DealName
where exists (select 1 from #DistDeal dd where dd.DealName = d.DealName) and
not exists (select 1 from #AltDealNames ad on ad.DealName = dd.DealName);
Note: when using insert, you should always include the list of column names.
Depending on how the optimizer sets up the actual physical query, the "where not exists" clause might run first, before anything is inserted by this query. Ie., it would only filter on values in #AltDealNames that were there from a previous query.
If you're trying to avoid inserting DealName values that are in #DistDeal, then maybe you want:
insert into #AltDealNames
select d.DealName, d.ManagerScrubbed, d.BbgDealName, t.TrancheName,
t.StreetCusip, t.ISIN, t.BbgTrancheName
from metric..Deal d
join metric..Tranche t on d.DealName = t.DealName
where not exists(select 1 from #DistDeal dd
where d.DealName = dd.DealName) -- Changed line
I have a table where I wish to update some of the rows. All the fields are not null. I'm doing a sub-query, and I wish to update the table with the non-Null results.
See Below for my final answer:
In MySQL, I solve this problem by doing an UPDATE IGNORE. How do I make this work in SQL Server 2005? The sub-query uses a four-table Join to find the data to insert if it exists. The Update is being run against a table that could have 90,000+ records, so I need a solution that uses SQL, rather than having the Java program that's querying the database retrieve the results and then update those fields where we've got non-Null values.
Update: My query:
UPDATE #SearchResults SET geneSymbol = (
SELECT TOP 1 symbol.name FROM
GeneSymbol AS symbol JOIN GeneConnector AS geneJoin
ON symbol.id = geneJoin.geneSymbolID
JOIN Result AS sSeq ON geneJoin.sSeqID = sSeq.id
JOIN IndelConnector AS joiner ON joiner.sSeqID = sSeq.id
WHERE joiner.indelID = #SearchResults.id ORDER BY symbol.id ASC)
WHERE isSNV = 0
If I add "AND symbol.name IS NOT NULL" to either WHERE I get a SQL error. If I run it as is I get "adding null to a non-null column" errors. :-(
Thank you all, I ended up finding this:
UPDATE #SearchResults SET geneSymbol =
ISNULL ((SELECT TOP 1 symbol.name FROM
GeneSymbol AS symbol JOIN GeneConnector AS geneJoin
ON symbol.id = geneJoin.geneSymbolID
JOIN Result AS sSeq ON geneJoin.sSeqID = sSeq.id
JOIN IndelConnector AS joiner ON joiner.sSeqID = sSeq.id
WHERE joiner.indelID = #SearchResults.id ORDER BY symbol.id ASC), ' ')
WHERE isSNV = 0
While it would be better not to do anything in the null case (so I'm going to try to understand the other answers, and see if they're faster) setting the null cases to a blank answer also works, and that's what this does.
Note: Wrapping the ISNULL (...) with () leads to really obscure (and wrong) errors.
with UpdatedGenesDS (
select joiner.indelID, name, row_number() over (order by symbol.id asc) seq
from
GeneSymbol AS symbol JOIN GeneConnector AS geneJoin
ON symbol.id = geneJoin.geneSymbolID
JOIN Result AS sSeq ON geneJoin.sSeqID = sSeq.id
JOIN IndelConnector AS joiner ON joiner.sSeqID = sSeq.id
WHERE name is not null ORDER BY symbol.id ASC
)
update Genes
set geneSymbol = upd.name
from #SearchResults a
inner join UpdateGenesDs upd on a.id = b.intelID
where upd.seq =1 and isSNV = 0
this handles the null completely as all are filtered out by the where predicate (can also be filtered by join predicate if You wish. Is it what You are looking for?
Here's another option, where only those rows in #SearchResults that are succesfully joined will be udpated. If there are no null values in the underlying data, then the inner joins will pull in no null values, and you won't have to worry about filtering them out.
UPDATE #SearchResults
set geneSymbol = symbol.name
from #SearchResults sr
inner join IndelConnector AS joiner
on joiner.indelID = sr.id
inner join Result AS sSeq
on sSeq.id = joiner.sSeqID
inner join GeneConnector AS geneJoin
on geneJoin.sSeqID = sSeq.id
-- Get "lowest" (i.e. first if listed alphabetically) value of name for each id
inner join (select id, min(name) name
from GeneSymbol
group by id) symbol
on symbol.id = geneJoin.geneSymbolID
where isSNV = 0 -- Which table is this value from?
(There might be some syntax problems, without tables I can't debug it)
