I am performing a multiplication that requires two columns from two different tables, and then using the results in a separate query. I think this would be possible as a view:
SELECT SUM(A.salesAmt * B.sales%) AS rebateAmount
But would a table-valued function be possible here, or more appropriate? Could both table A and B be passed as parameters to return the final rebateAmount as a sum?
Table A contains: salesID, salesAmt
Table B contains: salesID, sales%
Would like the TVF to return the sum of (salesAmt * sales%) as rebateAmount if possible? This is SQL Server 2014.
Thanks in advance.
Passing a table as a parameter doesn't seems to resolve your issue.
Instead there seems to be a simpler way:
-- create temp tables
Create Table #a (salesID int, salesAmt decimal(15,2) )
Create Table #b (salesID int, salesPerc decimal(5,2) )
-- insert data
Insert into #a
Select 1, 2567.34
Union
Select 2, 335.57
Union
Select 3, 95.35
Union
Select 4, 303.83
Union
Select 5, 743.66
-- insert data
Insert into #b
Select 1, 4.5
Union
Select 2, 10.0
Union
Select 3, 2.5
Union
Select 4, 6.0
Union
Select 5, 20.0
-- to get the data of individual columns + the multiple of the salesAmt & salesPerc
Select a.*, b.salesPerc, convert(decimal(15,2), a.salesAmt * b.salesPerc ) as Mult from #a a inner join #b b on a.salesID = b.salesID
-- to get the sum of the multiple of the salesAmt & salesPerc
Select Sum (convert(decimal(15,2), a.salesAmt * b.salesPerc )) as SumOfMult from #a a inner join #b b on a.salesID = b.salesID

I am using SQL Server and want to do Bulk Updates but don't want any row to be re-updated if same values already exists.
For Example Consider following tables with their data
DECLARE #UpdatedIds TABLE
(
BookId INT
)
CREATE TABLE Book
(
[Id] INT,
[Name] NVARCHAR(MAX)
)
INSERT INTO Book([Id], [Name])
SELECT 1, 'Book1'
UNION
SELECT 2, 'Book2'
UNION
SELECT 3, 'Book3'
UNION
SELECT 4, 'Book4'
UNION
SELECT 5, 'Book5'
CREATE TABLE #Book
(
[Id] INT,
[Name] NVARCHAR(MAX)
)
INSERT INTO #Book([Id], [Name])
SELECT 1, 'Book1_Changed'
UNION
SELECT 2, 'Book2_Changed'
UNION
SELECT 3, 'Book3'
UNION
SELECT 4, 'Book4'
UNION
SELECT 5, 'Book5'
What I want is when I run the following query
UPDATE [BO]
SET [Name] = [BU].[Name]
OUTPUT [INSERTED].[Id] INTO #UpdatedIds([BookId])
FROM [Book] [BO]
INNER JOIN #Book [BU] ON [BO].[Id] = [BU].[Id]
SELECT * FROM #UpdatedIds
#UpdatedIds should have records of 1 and 2 not 3, 4, or 5
I have 2 ways of doing this in my mind and would like to have opinions about which one will be fastest/better.
Using Except Keyword and delete rows that already exists
Using Binary_Checksum that is comparing Checksums of records in actual table and in temp table and removing records with equal checksum
Thanks
This has probably been answered but, its hard to search for this question, as you can see in my confusing title.
Anyhow, I hope this example will help:
The tricky part is the one to many relationship in the parameter lookup table.
Ive tried using multiple joins and aliases resulting in a hugh number of rows since Im getting every 'amount' for every 'price'.
SELECT paraval.month, paraval.value as amount, paraval2.value as price, trade.position
FROM trade
INNER JOIN parameter para on trade.tID=para.tID and para.name = 'amount'
INNER JOIN parametervalues paraval on para.pID=paraval.pID
INNER JOIN parameter para2 on trade.tID=para2.tID and para2.name = 'price'
INNER JOIN parametervalues paraval2 on para2.pID=paraval2.pID
WHERE trade.type = 'cert'
Guessing I need sub-queries, but not sure where to place them.
EDIT add some SQL code structure :
CREATE TABLE #Trade
(
tID int PRIMARY KEY,
type varchar(50),
position int
);
CREATE TABLE #Parameter
(
pID int PRIMARY KEY,
tID int,
name varchar(50)
);
CREATE TABLE #ParameterValue
(
pID int,
smonth varchar(50),
value varchar(50));
INSERT INTO #Trade
SELECT 1, 'stock', 1
UNION
SELECT 2, 'stock', 2
UNION
SELECT 3, 'cert', 3
INSERT INTO #Parameter
SELECT 1,1,'amount'
UNION
SELECT 2,1,'price'
UNION
SELECT 3,2,'amount'
UNION
SELECT 4,2,'price'
UNION
SELECT 5,3,'amount'
UNION
SELECT 6,3,'price'
INSERT INTO #ParameterValue
SELECT 1,1,'5'
UNION
SELECT 2,1,'500'
UNION
SELECT 3,1,'15'
UNION
SELECT 4,1,'300'
UNION
SELECT 5,1,'5'
UNION
SELECT 5,2,'10'
UNION
SELECT 5,3,'5'
UNION
SELECT 6,1,'100'
UNION
SELECT 6,2,'200'
UNION
SELECT 6,3,'300'
-- SELECT * FROM #Trade
-- SELECT * FROM #Parameter
-- SELECT * FROM #ParameterValue
DROP TABLE #Trade
DROP TABLE #Parameter
DROP TABLE #ParameterValue
I think the best way for build your excepted output and relevant schema you have to use pivot with dynamic sql because in next day it possible to have some new values it’s the principal of your structure.
But i think this query can be respond :
SELECT paraval.month, (case when para. name = 'amount' then max(paraval.value) else null end)as amount, (case when para. name = 'price' then max(paraval.value) else null end) as price, max(trade.position) as position
FROM trade
INNER JOIN parameter para on trade.tID=para.tID
INNER JOIN parametervalues paraval on para.pID=paraval.pID
WHERE trade.type = 'cert'
Group by paraval.month
EDIT correction off previous query :
CREATE TABLE #Trade
(
tID int PRIMARY KEY,
type varchar(50),
position int
);
CREATE TABLE #Parameter
(
pID int PRIMARY KEY,
tID int,
name varchar(50)
);
CREATE TABLE #ParameterValue
(
pID int,
smonth varchar(50),
value varchar(50));
INSERT INTO #Trade
SELECT 1, 'stock', 1
UNION
SELECT 2, 'stock', 2
UNION
SELECT 3, 'cert', 3
INSERT INTO #Parameter
SELECT 1,1,'amount'
UNION
SELECT 2,1,'price'
UNION
SELECT 3,2,'amount'
UNION
SELECT 4,2,'price'
UNION
SELECT 5,3,'amount'
UNION
SELECT 6,3,'price'
INSERT INTO #ParameterValue
SELECT 1,1,'5'
UNION
SELECT 2,1,'500'
UNION
SELECT 3,1,'15'

SELECT 5,3,'5'
UNION
SELECT 6,1,'100'

I have a query for multiple inserts using UNION ALL.
How do I use SELECT scope_identity(); for each row of data inserted?
INSERT INTO MyTable (FirstCol, SecondCol)
SELECT 'First', 1
UNION ALL
SELECT 'Second', 2
UNION ALL
SELECT 'Third', 3
UNION ALL
SELECT 'Fourth', 4
UNION ALL
SELECT 'Fifth', 5
The short answer is no you can't. SCOPE_IDENTITY will give you the value of the last insert only. But you can use the OUTPUT clause from 2005 onwards. See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms177564.aspx for information on how to use this clause.
You can use OUTPUT Clause to get Multiple Identity Column Value instead of scope_identity() while inserting Multiple Row.
Create Table tablename
(id int identity(1,5) Primary KEY, b int , c int)
DECLARE #tempIDs TABLE (id int)
INSERT tablename (b, c)
OUTPUT inserted.id INTO #tempIDs
SELECT 1, 1
UNION ALL
SELECT 2, 2
UNION ALL
SELECT 200, 3
UNION ALL
SELECT 3000, 4
UNION ALL
SELECT 400, 5
Select * from #tempIDs
Now your table variable #tempIDs have All Primary Key Data those are inserted using UNION ALL.
What's the easiest way to select one of five fixed strings returned in an SQL Server query, randomly?
I.e. the equivalent of:
function randomColumn() {
var values = ['apple', 'banana', 'orange', 'cherry', 'lemon'];
var idx = Math.floor(Math.random() * 5);
return values[idx];
}
I need to change my existing SQL script to have a certain column return one of these values, without the need to change my client code.
Do I need to create a temp table?
I'm using SQL Server 2008 R2.
You don't need a temporary table for a few strings, you can create the result on the fly:
select str
from (
select 0 as id, 'apple' as str
union all
select 1, 'banana'
union all
select 2, 'orange'
union all
select 3, 'cherry'
union all
select 4, 'lemon'
) x
where id = floor(rand() * 5)
select top 1 Value
from Table1
order by newid()
SQL Fiddle Example
Select 'apple' values
INTO #tmp
UNION ALL
Select'banana' values
UNION ALL
Select 'orange' values
.
.
.
select top 1 values
from #tmp
order by newid()
OR
ALTER TABLE #tmp
ADD id BIGINT IDENTITY(1,1)
DECLARE #rand BIGINT
SET #rand=rand()*4
select top 1 values
from #tmp
where id=#rand
DECLARE #ListofIDs TABLE(IDs VARCHAR(100), ID INT IDENTITY(1,1));
INSERT INTO #ListofIDs
SELECT 'a'
UNION ALL
SELECT 'b'
UNION ALL
SELECT '20'
UNION ALL
SELECT 'c'
UNION ALL
SELECT '30'
UNION ALL
SELECT 'd';
SELECT * FROM #ListofIDs;
SELECT Ids from #ListofIDs where ID=1+ CONVERT(INT, (5)*RAND())
I'm new-ish to SQL and am trying to figure out how to use the values from the Select statement in a While Exists conditional loop. The purpose is to combine multiple occurences of an attribute for a Document into a single field, and later pivot and join those results to the Document record.
For example, three tables exist like so:
ATTRIBUTES TABLE
ID, ATTRIBUTE_NAME
---------------------------
1, Created
2, Embedded_Image
...
ATTRIBUTE_VALUES TABLE
ATTRIBUTE_ID, VALUE, DOC_ID
-------------------------------------------
1, 2010/11/01, 1
2, 'Home.png', 1
2, 'Castle.png', 1
2, 'Apartment.jpg', 1
1, 2008/06/23, 2
2, 'Ski Jump.jpg', 2
2, 'Snowboarding.png', 2
...
DOCUMENTS TABLE
ID, TEXT
---------------------------
1, 'Homes of the ...'
2, 'Winter sports ...'
...
So a final Pivot and Join of the tables would look like so:
DOC_ID, TEXT, Created, Embedded_Image
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1, 'Homes of the ...', 2010/11/01, 'Home.png,Castle.png,Apartment.jpg'
2, 'Winter sports ...', 2008/06/23, 'Ski Jump.jpg, Snowboarding.png'
The SQL While Exists condition I've tried to write looks like so:
DECLARE #LOOP_DOC_ID UNIQUEIDENTIFIER
DECLARE #LOOP_ATTRIBUTE_NAME NVARCHAR(MAX)
WHILE EXISTS(
SELECT [dbo].[ATTRIBUTE_VALUES].[DOC_ID], [dbo].[ATTRIBUTES].[ATTRIBUTE_NAME]
FROM ([dbo].[ATTRIBUTE_VALUES] INNER JOIN [dbo].[ATTRIBUTES]
ON [dbo].[ATTRIBUTE_VALUES].[ATTRIBUTE_ID] = [dbo].[ATTRIBUTES].[ID])
)
BEGIN
SET #LOOP_DOC_ID = DOC_ID
SET #LOOP_ATTRIBUTE_NAME = ATTRIBUTE_NAME
SELECT STUFF(
(
SELECT DISTINCT ',' + RTRIM(LTRIM([dbo].[ATTRIBUTE_VALUES].[VALUE]))
FROM
(
[dbo].[ATTRIBUTE_VALUES] INNER JOIN [dbo].[ATTRIBUTES]
ON [dbo].[ATTRIBUTE_VALUES].[ATTRIBUTE_ID] = [dbo].[ATTRIBUTES].[ID]
)
WHERE [dbo].[ATTRIBUTE_VALUES].[DOC_ID] = #LOOP_DOC_ID
AND [dbo].[ATTRIBUTES].[ATTRIBUTE_NAME] = #LOOP_ATTRIBUTE_NAME
ORDER BY ',' + RTRIM(LTRIM([dbo].[ATTRIBUTE_VALUES].[VALUE]))
FOR XML PATH('')
), 1, 2, ''
) AS VALUE, #LOOP_DOC_ID AS DOC_ID, #LOOP_ATTRIBUTE_NAME AS ATTRIBUTE_NAME
END
SQL Server doesn't like the lines where I'm trying to SET the variables to the values from the Select statement in the While Exists condition.
How can I use the [dbo].[ATTRIBUTE_VALUES].[DOC_ID], [dbo].[ATTRIBUTES].[ATTRIBUTE_NAME] values Selected in the While Exists conditional statement between the BEGIN and END statements?
Preferrably I would like to do away with the #LOOP_DOC_ID and #LOOP_ATTRIBUTE_NAME variables and deal directly with the values.
I've looked through forums that have talked about using Cursors to solve similar problems, but each one of them seem to recommend only using Cursors as a last resort due to their lack of speed. I've also seen some people use stored procedures, but I can't use those, since my boss has ruled those as off-limits. Am I in need of a Cursor, or is there a better way to do this?
Have a look at something like this (Full Example)
DECLARE #ATTRIBUTES TABLE(
ID INT,
ATTRIBUTE_NAME VARCHAR(100)
)
INSERT INTO #ATTRIBUTES SELECT 1, 'Created'
INSERT INTO #ATTRIBUTES SELECT 2, 'Embedded_Image'
DECLARE #ATTRIBUTE_VALUES TABLE(
ATTRIBUTE_ID INT,
VALUE VARCHAR(100),
DOC_ID INT
)
INSERT INTO #ATTRIBUTE_VALUES SELECT 1, '2010/11/01', 1
INSERT INTO #ATTRIBUTE_VALUES SELECT 2, 'Home.png', 1
INSERT INTO #ATTRIBUTE_VALUES SELECT 2, 'Castle.png', 1
INSERT INTO #ATTRIBUTE_VALUES SELECT 2, 'Apartment.jpg', 1
INSERT INTO #ATTRIBUTE_VALUES SELECT 1, '2008/06/23', 2
INSERT INTO #ATTRIBUTE_VALUES SELECT 2, 'Ski Jump.jpg', 2
INSERT INTO #ATTRIBUTE_VALUES SELECT 2, 'Snowboarding.png', 2
DECLARE #DOCUMENTS TABLE(
ID INT,
[TEXT] VARCHAR(100)
)
INSERT INTO #DOCUMENTS SELECT 1, 'Homes of the ...'
INSERT INTO #DOCUMENTS SELECT 2, 'Winter sports ...'
;WITH Vals AS (
SELECT d.ID DOC_ID,
d.[TEXT] [TEXT],
a.ATTRIBUTE_NAME,
av.VALUE
FROM #DOCUMENTS d INNER JOIN
#ATTRIBUTE_VALUES av ON d.ID = av.DOC_ID INNER JOIN
#ATTRIBUTES a ON av.ATTRIBUTE_ID = a.ID
)
SELECT *
FROM (
SELECT DOC_ID,
[TEXT],
ATTRIBUTE_NAME,
stuff(
(
select ',' + t.VALUE
from Vals t
where t.DOC_ID = v.DOC_ID
AND t.ATTRIBUTE_NAME = v.ATTRIBUTE_NAME
order by t.VALUE
for xml path('')
),1,1,'') Concats
FROM Vals v
GROUP BY DOC_ID,
[TEXT],
ATTRIBUTE_NAME
) s
PIVOT ( MAX(ConCats) FOR ATTRIBUTE_NAME IN ([Created],[Embedded_Image])) pvt
Output
DOC_ID TEXT Created Embedded_Image
1 Homes of the ... 2010/11/01 Apartment.jpg,Castle.png,Home.png
2 Winter sports ... 2008/06/23 Ski Jump.jpg,Snowboarding.png
From your sample, and with support from common sense, I venture the hypothesis that
A document has a single creation date.
A document can have many embedded images.
So pivoting on creation date is straightforward:
SELECT DOC_ID
, VALUE AS Created
FROM ATTRIBUTE_VALUES
WHERE ATTRIBUTE_ID = 1
and joining this subquery to your Documents table gives you the first three columns of your desired output.
Your final column summarizes multiple embedded images for each document. I personally would use some standard reporting tool (e.g. MS Access or Crystal Reports). Alternatively, create a new empty table with your four desired columns, populate the first three columns with a SQL INSERT statement, and then have Perl (or C#, or your favorite declarative language) query for the embedded images of each document, concatenate the results with commas, and insert the concatenation into your fourth column.
But if you want to do it in SQL, the concatenate-multiple-values question has been asked here before, e.g. in How to create a SQL Server function to "join" multiple rows from a subquery into a single delimited field?.
