Get Min date as condition - sql

I have a table that contains invoices for all phone numbers, and each number has several invoices, I want to display only the first invoice for precise number but i don't really know how get only first invoice , this is my query
SELECT
b.contrno
a.AR_INVDATE
FROM P_STG_TABS.IVM_INVOICE_RECORD a
INNER JOIN P_EDW_TMP.invoice b
ON b.contrno=a.contrno
WHERE a.AR_INVDATE< (SELECT AR_INVDATE FROM P_STG_TABS.IVM_INVOICE_RECORD WHERE contrno=b.contrno )

Teradata supports a QUALIFY clause to filter the result of an OLAP-function (similar to HAVING after GROUP BY), which greatly simplifies Tim Biegeleisens's answer:
SELECT *
FROM P_STG_TABS.IVM_INVOICE_RECORD a
INNER JOIN P_EDW_TMP.invoice b
ON b.contrno = a.contrno
QUALIFY
ROW_NUMBER()
OVER (PARTITION BY b.contrno
ORDER BY a.AR_INVDATE) = 1
Additionally you can apply the ROW_NUMBER before the join (might be more efficient depending on additional conditions):
SELECT *
FROM
( SELECT *
FROM P_STG_TABS.IVM_INVOICE_RECORD a
QUALIFY
ROW_NUMBER()
OVER (PARTITION BY b.contrno
ORDER BY a.AR_INVDATE) = 1
) AS a
INNER JOIN P_EDW_TMP.invoice b
ON b.contrno = a.contrno

Use ROW_NUMBER():
SELECT
t.contrno,
t.AR_INVDATE
FROM
(
SELECT
b.contrno,
a.AR_INVDATE,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY b.contrno ORDER BY a.AR_INVDATE) rn
FROM P_STG_TABS.IVM_INVOICE_RECORD a
INNER JOIN P_EDW_TMP.invoice b
ON b.contrno = a.contrno
) t
WHERE t.rn = 1;
If you are worried about ties, and you want to display all ties, then you can replace ROW_NUMBER with either RANK or DENSE_RANK.

If I correctly understand, then one way is to use group by with min(a.AR_INVDATE):
SELECT
b.contrno,
min(a.AR_INVDATE)
FROM P_STG_TABS.IVM_INVOICE_RECORD a
INNER JOIN P_EDW_TMP.invoice b
ON b.contrno=a.contrno
group by b.contrno

How optimize select with max subquery on the same table?

We have many old selects like this:
SELECT
tm."ID",tm."R_PERSONES",tm."R_DATASOURCE", ,tm."MATCHCODE",
d.NAME AS DATASOURCE,
p.PDID
FROM TABLE_MAPPINGS tm,
PERSONES p,
DATASOURCES d,
(select ID
from TABLE_MAPPINGS
where (R_PERSONES, MATCHCODE)
in (select
R_PERSONES, MATCHCODE
from TABLE_MAPPINGS
where
id in (select max(id)
from TABLE_MAPPINGS
group by MATCHCODE)
)
) tm2
WHERE tm.R_PERSONES = p.ID
AND tm.R_DATASOURCE=d.ID
and tm2.id = tm.id;
These are large tables, and queries take a long time.
How to rebuild them?
Thank you
You can query the table only once using something like (untested as you have not provided a minimal example of your create table statements or sample data):
SELECT *
FROM (
SELECT m.*,
COUNT(CASE WHEN rnk = 1 THEN 1 END)
OVER (PARTITION BY r_persones, matchcode) AS has_max_id
FROM (
SELECT tm.ID,
tm.R_PERSONES,
tm.R_DATASOURCE,
tm.MATCHCODE,
d.NAME AS DATASOURCE,
p.PDID,
RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY tm.matchcode ORDER BY tm.id DESC) As rnk
FROM TABLE_MAPPINGS tm
INNER JOIN PERSONES p ON tm.R_PERSONES = p.ID
INNER JOIN DATASOURCES d ON tm.R_DATASOURCE = d.ID
) m
)
WHERE has_max_id > 0;
First finding the maximum ID using the RANK analytic function and then finding all the relevant r_persones, matchcode pairs using conditional aggregation in a COUNT analytic function.
Note: you want to use the RANK or DENSE_RANK analytic functions to match the maximums as it can match multiple rows per partition; whereas ROW_NUMBER will only ever put a single row per partition first.
You're querying table_mappings 3 times; how about doing it only once?
WITH
tab_map
AS
(SELECT a.id,
a.r_persones,
a.matchcode,
a.datasource,
ROW_NUMBER ()
OVER (PARTITION BY a.matchcode ORDER BY a.id DESC) rn
FROM table_mappings a)
SELECT tm.id,
tm.r_persones,
tm.matchcode,
d.name AS datasource,
p.pdid
FROM tab_map tm
JOIN persones p ON p.id = tm.r_persones
JOIN datasources d ON d.id = tm.r_datasource
WHERE tm.rn = 1

Select second most recent date from inner join

I have this query :
SELECT
companies.display_name, companies.pay_schedule_id,
pay_schedule_periods.schedule_id,
pay_schedule_periods.created_at
FROM
companies
INNER JOIN
pay_schedule_periods ON pay_schedule_id = pay_schedule_periods.schedule_id
ORDER BY
companies.display_name, pay_schedule_periods.created_at DESC;
I get this result :
How can I select only the second most recent created_at date from each unique display_name ?
You could use row_number to assign a sequence to your dates and apply this before joining, then include as part of your join criteria, such as:
select c.display_name, c.pay_schedule_id, psp.schedule_id, psp.created_at
from companies c
join (
select pay_schedule_id, created_at,
Row_Number() over(partition by pay_schedule_id order by created_at desc) rn
from pay_schedule_periods
)psp on psp.schedule_id = c.pay_schedule_id and rn = 2
order by c.display_name, psp.created_at desc;
You could also apply this using a lateral join which would simplify further.

efficient way to JOIN in SQL

I have to JOIN two tables: articles and sales, but not all the data of articles, just need the last load.
Is there a difference between this two ways? there is a most faster/efficient way? and more important, why?
1)
SELECT *
FROM sales S
INNER JOIN articles A
ON S.article_id = A.article_id AND A.load_date = (SELECT MAX(load_date) FROM articles)
2)
SELECT *
FROM sales s
INNER JOIN (
SELECT *
FROM articles
WHERE load_date = (SELECT MAX(load_date) FROM articles)
) A
ON s.article_id = a.article_id
Most DBMSes also support Windowed Aggregate Functions and a RANK might be more efficient (and easier to write if you're used to it):
SELECT *
FROM
(
SELECT *,
RANK() -- max date gets rank #1
OVER (PARTITION BY a.article_id
ORDER BY a.load_date DESC) rn
FROM sales s
INNER JOIN articles a
ON s.article_id = a.article_id
) dt
WHER rn = 1

Highest Count with a group

I'm having an absolute brain fade
SELECT p.ProductCategory, f.ProductSubCategory, COUNT(*) AS Cnt
FROM Sales f
JOIN Products p ON f.ProductSubCategory = p.ProductSubCategory
GROUP BY p.ProductCategory, f.ProductSubCategory
ORDER BY 1,3 DESC
This shows me the count for each ProductSubCategory, I would like to see only the highest ProductSubCategory per ProductCategory.
I wish to see (I don't care about the Count value)
There are a couple of different ways to do this. One involves joining the results back to themselves and using the max aggregate. But since you are using SQL Server, you can use ROW_NUMBER to achieve the same result:
with cte as (
select p.productcategory, p.ProductSubCategory, COUNT(*) cnt,
ROW_NUMBER() over (partition by p.productcategory order by count(*) desc) rn
from products p
join sales s on p.ProductSubCategory = s.ProductSubCategory
group by p.productcategory, p.ProductSubCategory
)
select *
from cte
where rn = 1
You already got the answer, Please see the following code to. It may help you.
SELECT p.ProductCategory,
f.ProductSubCategory,
COUNT(*) AS Cnt
FROM Sales f
JOIN Products p ON f.ProductSubCategory = p.ProductSubCategory
JOIN (
SELECT p.ProductCategory,
f.ProductSubCategory,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER ( PARTITION BY p.ProductCategory,
f.ProductSubCategory
ORDER BY COUNT(*) DESC) [Row]
FROM Sales f
JOIN Products p ON f.ProductSubCategory = p.ProductSubCategory) Lu
ON P.ProductCategory = Lu.ProductCategory
AND f.ProductSubCategory = Lu.ProductSubCategory
WHERE Lu.Row = 1
GROUP By p.ProductCategory,
f.ProductSubCategory

Problems with SQL Inner join

Having some problems while trying to optimize my SQL.
I got 2 tables like this:
Names
id, analyseid, name
Analyses
id, date, analyseid.
I want to get the newest analyse from Analyses (ordered by date) for every name (they are unique) in Names. I can't really see how to do this without using 2 x nested selects.
My try (Dont get confused about the names. It's the same principle):
SELECT
B.id,
B.chosendatetime,
vStockNames.name
FROM
vStockNames
INNER JOIN
(
SELECT TOP 1
vAnalysesHistory.id,
vAnalysesHistory.chosendatetime,
vAnalysesHistory.companyid
FROM
vAnalysesHistory
ORDER BY
vAnalysesHistory.chosendatetime DESC
) AS B
ON
B.companyid = vStockNames.stockid
In my example the problem is that i only get 1 row returned (because of top 1). But if I exclude this, I can get multiple analyses of the same name.
Can you help me ? - THanks in advance.
SQL Server 2000+:
SELECT (SELECT TOP 1
a.id
FROM vAnalysesHistory AS a
WHERE a.companyid = n.stockid
ORDER BY a.chosendatetime DESC) AS id,
n.name,
(SELECT TOP 1
a.chosendatetime
FROM vAnalysesHistory AS a
WHERE a.companyid = n.stockid
ORDER BY a.chosendatetime DESC) AS chosendatetime
FROM vStockNames AS n
SQL Server 2005+, using CTE:
WITH cte AS (
SELECT a.id,
a.date,
a.analyseid,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY a.analyseid
ORDER BY a.date DESC) AS rk
FROM ANALYSES a)
SELECT n.id,
n.name,
c.date
FROM NAMES n
JOIN cte c ON c.analyseid = n.analyseid
AND c.rk = 1
...without CTE:
SELECT n.id,
n.name,
c.date
FROM NAMES n
JOIN (SELECT a.id,
a.date,
a.analyseid,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY a.analyseid
ORDER BY a.date DESC) AS rk
FROM ANALYSES a) c ON c.analyseid = n.analyseid
AND c.rk = 1
You're only asking for the TOP 1, so that's all you're getting. If you want one per companyId, you need to specify that in the SELECT on vAnalysesHistory. Of course, JOINs must be constant and do not allow this. Fortunately, CROSS APPLY comes to the rescue in cases like this.
SELECT
B.id,
B.chosendatetime,
vStockNames.name
FROM
vStockNames
CROSS APPLY
(
SELECT TOP 1
vAnalysesHistory.id,
vAnalysesHistory.chosendatetime,
vAnalysesHistory.companyid
FROM
vAnalysesHistory
WHERE companyid = vStockNames.stockid
ORDER BY
vAnalysesHistory.chosendatetime DESC
) AS B
You could also use ROW_NUMBER() to do the same:
SELECT
B.id,
B.chosendatetime,
vStockNames.name
FROM
vStockNames
INNER JOIN
(
SELECT
vAnalysesHistory.id,
vAnalysesHistory.chosendatetime,
vAnalysesHistory.companyid,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY companyid ORDER BY chosendatetime DESC) AS row
FROM
vAnalysesHistory
) AS B
ON
B.companyid = vStockNames.stockid AND b.row = 1
Personally I'm a fan of the first approach. It will likely be faster and is easier to read IMO.
Will something like this work for you?
;with RankedAnalysesHistory as
(
SELECT
vah.id,
vah.chosendatetime,
vah.companyid
,rank() over (partition by vah.companyid order by vah.chosendatetime desc) rnk
FROM
vAnalysesHistory vah
)
SELECT
B.id,
B.chosendatetime,
vsn.name
FROM
vStockNames vsn
join RankedAnalysesHistory as rah on rah.companyid = vsn.stockid and vah.rnk = 1
It seems to me that you only need SQL-92 for this. Of course, explicit documentation of the joining columns between the tables would help.
Simple names
SELECT B.ID, C.ChosenDate, N.Name
FROM (SELECT A.AnalyseID, MAX(A.Date) AS ChosenDate
FROM Analyses AS A
GROUP BY A.AnalyseID) AS C
JOIN Analyses AS B ON C.AnalyseID = B.AnalyseID AND C.ChosenDate = B.Date
JOIN Names AS N ON N.AnalyseID = C.AnalyseID
The sub-select generates the latest analysis for each company; the join with Analyses picks up the Analyse.ID value corresponding to that latest analysis, and the join with Names picks up the company name. (The C.ChosenDate in the select-list could be replaced by B.Date AS ChosenDate, of course.)
Complicated names
SELECT B.ID, C.ChosenDateTime, N.Name
FROM (SELECT A.CompanyID, MAX(A.ChosenDateTime) AS ChosenDateTime
FROM vAnalysesHistory AS A
GROUP BY A.CompanyID) AS C
JOIN vAnalysesHistory AS B ON C.CompanyID = B.CompanyID
AND C.ChosenDateTime = B.ChosenDateTime
JOIN vStockNames AS N ON N.AnalyseID = C.AnalyseID
Same query with systematic renaming (and slightly different layout to avoid horizontal scrollbars).
