PL/SQL - Exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows - sql

I am trying to create function that will return message with maximum salary for each job inside department and order by Maximum salary.
Message need to be:
Department: Department name,
Job/Position: Name of the job, Maximum salary: salary amount,
create or replace PACKAGE BODY Salary AS
FUNCTION max_sal(DEPTNO_F NUMBER)
RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
dept_name VARCHAR2(25);
job_possition VARCHAR(25);
maximum_salary NUMBER;
message VARCHAR2(255);
BEGIN
SELECT DNAME, JOB, MAX(SAL) AS "SAL"
INTO job_possition, maximum_salary
FROM EMP
WHERE DEPTNO = DEPTNO_F
GROUP BY JOB, DNAME
ORDER BY SAL DESC;
message := 'Department name: '||dept_name|| 'Job positin: ' ||job_possitin||, 'Maximum Salary: ' ||maximum_salary;
return message;
END max_sal;
END Salary;

The problem is your query is returning one than one row and it can't select into your 2 variables. Have you tried running the SELECT SQL statement outside of the package and checked the rows you are getting back?
For any given DEPTNO_F value you should not have more than one permutation of DNAME and JOB

To process several rows in query result you have to use loops:
create or replace PACKAGE BODY Salary AS
FUNCTION max_sal(DEPTNO_F NUMBER)
RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
dept_name VARCHAR2(25);
job_possition VARCHAR(25);
maximum_salary NUMBER;
message VARCHAR2(255);
BEGIN
for i in (SELECT DNAME, JOB, MAX(SAL) SAL
FROM EMP
WHERE DEPTNO = DEPTNO_F
GROUP BY JOB, DNAME
ORDER BY SAL DESC) loop
message := message || 'Department name: ' || i.DNAME || ', Job position: ' ||
i.JOB || ', Maximum Salary: ' || i.SAL || chr(10);
end loop;
return message;
END max_sal;
END Salary;

PL/SQL - If statement to check salary

I'm attempting to develop a program that takes a number from the user, sorts employees by their highest salary, and displays a number of rows equivalent to the input number showing the top earners. The program should also verify if the last employee received the same salary as the next employee. If this is the case, the next employee should also be displayed.
I have attempted to modify the code, but none of my changes seem to be effective. Do you have any suggestions for how to make the code operate in accordance with the description provided? The functional code is included below.
Thank you.
Code:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE p5_q5 (num_employee NUMBER) AS
BEGIN
FOR emp IN (SELECT ENAME, SAL
FROM EMP
ORDER BY SAL DESC
FETCH FIRST num_employee ROWS ONLY) -- Will be returned X rows according to input of the user (num_employee)
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Employee name: ' || emp.ENAME || ' - Salary: ' || emp.SAL);
END LOOP;
END;
/
EXEC p5_q5(3);
*Output:
Employee name: KING - Salary: 5512.5
Employee name: JONES - Salary: 3570
Employee name: SCOTT - Salary: 3450
*Ideal Output:
Employee name: KING - Salary: 5512.5
Employee name: JONES - Salary: 3570
Employee name: SCOTT - Salary: 3450
Employee name: FORD - Salary: 3450
I have tried several strategies, but have been unsuccessful in developing a method to determine if the subsequent employee earns the same salary as the previous employee, and to display that employee if they do earn the same amount.
Use FETCH FIRST n ROWS WITH TIES:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE p5_q5 (num_employee NUMBER) AS
BEGIN
FOR emp IN (SELECT ENAME, SAL
FROM EMP
ORDER BY SAL DESC
FETCH FIRST num_employee ROWS WITH TIES)
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Employee name: ' || emp.ENAME || ' - Salary: ' || emp.SAL);
END LOOP;
END;
/
Which, for the sample data:
CREATE TABLE emp (ename, sal) AS
SELECT 'Alice', 100 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 'Betty', 100 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 'Carol', 90 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 'Debra', 90 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 'Emily', 90 FROM DUAL;
Then:
BEGIN
DBMS_OUTPUT.ENABLE;
p5_q5(1);
END;
/
and
BEGIN
DBMS_OUTPUT.ENABLE;
p5_q5(2);
END;
/
Both output:
Employee name: Alice - Salary: 100
Employee name: Betty - Salary: 100
and:
BEGIN
DBMS_OUTPUT.ENABLE;
p5_q5(3);
END;
/
Outputs:
Employee name: Alice - Salary: 100
Employee name: Betty - Salary: 100
Employee name: Carol - Salary: 90
Employee name: Debra - Salary: 90
Employee name: Emily - Salary: 90
fiddle
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE p5_q5 (num_employee NUMBER) AS
curr_salary NUMBER;
BEGIN
curr_salary := 0;
FOR emp IN (SELECT ENAME, SAL
FROM EMP
ORDER BY SAL DESC)
LOOP
IF emp.SAL = curr_salary THEN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Employee name: ' || emp.ENAME || ' - Salary: ' || emp.SAL);
num_employee := num_employee - 1;
ELSE
curr_salary := emp.SAL;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Employee name: ' || emp.ENAME || ' - Salary: ' || emp.SAL);
num_employee := num_employee - 1;
END IF;
IF num_employee = 0 THEN
EXIT;
END IF;
END LOOP;
END;

EXEC p5_q5(3);

PL/SQL CREATE PROCEDURE - Salary increase based on tenure

The calculation in the FOR loop is wrong. In the first loop iteration you are setting SALARY to zero. In the second iteration, you are setting SALARY equal to base_salary. In the third iteration you are setting SALARY to double base_salary, etc. Also, in PL/SQL, FOR loop limits are inclusive. Hence your loop should start at 1 (one) and not 0 (zero).
The below code calculates the salary assuming that the increase is based on the current salary and not the base salary. Changes to your code are indicated by comments at the end of the changed line.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE calculate_salary(EMPLOYEE_ID EMPLOYEES.EMPLOYEE_ID%TYPE) AS
increase FLOAT := 1.05;

Oracle: How to wrap a Cursor inside A Function?

I am working on an assignment and it requires me to place a cursor inside a function.
Now my cursor works fine, but I am having a hard time placing it inside a a function, how can I do this?
The function is supposed to have the same argument as the cursor.
Code:
DECLARE
CURSOR c_emp_salary (v_job_title VARCHAR2)
IS
SELECT employee_id, first_name, salary, min_salary FROM employees e JOIN jobs j ON
e.job_id = j.job_id
AND j.job_title = v_job_title;
v_emp_id employees.employee_id%TYPE;
v_emp_first_name employees.first_name%TYPE;
v_emp_salary employees.salary%TYPE;
v_min_salary jobs.min_salary%TYPE;
BEGIN
OPEN c_emp_salary('Shipping Clerk'); --I WANT THIS VALUE TO BE FROM A FUNCTION.
LOOP
FETCH c_emp_salary INTO v_emp_id, v_emp_first_name, v_emp_salary, v_min_salary;
EXIT WHEN c_emp_salary%NOTFOUND;
dbms_output.put_line('Employee ID: ' || v_emp_id);
dbms_output.put_line('Employee First Name: ' || v_emp_first_name);
dbms_output.put_line('Employee Salary: ' || v_emp_salary);
dbms_output.put_line('Job Min Salary: ' || v_min_salary);
dbms_output.put('Result? ');
IF v_emp_salary = v_min_salary THEN dbms_output.put('Yes');
ELSE dbms_output.put('No');
END IF;
dbms_output.put_line(NULL);
dbms_output.put_line('++++++++++++++++++++++++');
END LOOP;
END;
The assignment description: Write a function that takes job_title and checks all employees in
that job, if an employee has salary equal to min_salary print
“yes” else print “no”. Use a cursor
"Use a cursor" is pointless because every DML or SELECT statement is a cursor.
Anyway, I assume you are looking for this:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION WRITE_SALARY(v_job_title IN VARCHAR2) AS
CURSOR c_emp_salary IS
SELECT employee_id, first_name, salary, min_salary
FROM employees e
JOIN jobs j ON e.job_id = j.job_id
WHERE j.job_title = v_job_title;
v_emp_id employees.employee_id%TYPE;
v_emp_first_name employees.first_name%TYPE;
v_emp_salary employees.salary%TYPE;
v_min_salary jobs.min_salary%TYPE;
BEGIN
OPEN c_emp_salary;
...
I assume you need something as:
(It needed substitute SCHEMA_NAME and FUNCTION_NAME)
(If return does not needed procedure can be used, and return statements should be removed)
(I don't run this example)
CREATE OR REPLACE function SCHEMA_NAME.FUNCTION_NAME( v_job_title VARCHAR2) return number is
CURSOR c_emp_salary
IS
SELECT employee_id, first_name, salary, min_salary FROM employees e JOIN jobs j ON
e.job_id = j.job_id
AND j.job_title = v_job_title;
v_emp_id employees.employee_id%TYPE;
v_emp_first_name employees.first_name%TYPE;
v_emp_salary employees.salary%TYPE;
v_min_salary jobs.min_salary%TYPE;
result number;
BEGIN
OPEN c_emp_salary('Shipping Clerk'); --I WANT THIS VALUE TO BE FROM A FUNCTION.
LOOP
FETCH c_emp_salary INTO v_emp_id, v_emp_first_name, v_emp_salary, v_min_salary;
EXIT WHEN c_emp_salary%NOTFOUND;
dbms_output.put_line('Employee ID: ' || v_emp_id);
dbms_output.put_line('Employee First Name: ' || v_emp_first_name);
dbms_output.put_line('Employee Salary: ' || v_emp_salary);
dbms_output.put_line('Job Min Salary: ' || v_min_salary);
dbms_output.put('Result? ');
IF v_emp_salary = v_min_salary THEN
dbms_output.put('Yes');
result := 1;
ELSE dbms_output.put('No');
result := 0;
END IF;
dbms_output.put_line(NULL);
dbms_output.put_line('++++++++++++++++++++++++');
return result;
END LOOP;
END;
The OP originally asked:
I am having a hard time placing [the cursor] inside a a function, how can I do this?
and
OPEN c_emp_salary('Shipping Clerk'); --I WANT THIS VALUE TO BE FROM A FUNCTION.
The code below solves the problem originally asked in the question; it is not intended to solve the assignment question that was edited in later as they are not one-and-the-same (that is left as an exercise to the OP).

How to call a function within a procedure to update all records of a table on PLSQL?

I'm practicing PLSQL and I'm coding a package with 2 functions to update commission and the other one to update salary but now I want to create a procedure within the same package to update commission and salary for all employees using the functions on the package. Is it possible?
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY emp_upd_pkg IS
-- Function to update commission_pct --
FUNCTION comm_upd(
p_empid employees.commission_pct%TYPE)
RETURN NUMBER
IS
v_new_comm employees.commission_pct%TYPE;
BEGIN
UPDATE employees
SET commission_pct = commission_pct * 1.1
WHERE employee_id = p_empid;
SELECT commission_pct
INTO v_new_comm
FROM employees
WHERE employee_id = p_empid;
RETURN v_new_comm;
EXCEPTION
WHEN
NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20992, 'NO EXISTE EMPLEADO');
END comm_upd;
-- Function to update salary --
FUNCTION sal_upd(
p_empid employees.salary%TYPE)
RETURN employees.salary%TYPE
IS
v_newsal employees.salary%TYPE;
BEGIN
UPDATE employees
SET salary = salary + 350
WHERE employee_id = p_empid;
-- Consulta select para la salida del a funcion --
SELECT salary
INTO v_newsal
FROM employees
WHERE employee_id = p_empid;
RETURN v_newsal;
END sal_upd;
-- Procedure to update all records of employees table --
PROCEDURE comm_sal_upd(
p_new_comm employees.commission_pct%TYPE,
p_new_sal employees.salary%TYPE);
END emp_upd_pkg;
I've tried creating a cursor and fetching into functions but I didn't succeed.
PROCEDURE comm_sal_upd(
p_new_comm employees.commission_pct%TYPE,
p_new_sal employees.salary%TYPE)
IS
CURSOR emp_cur IS
SELECT commission_pct, salary
FROM employees;
BEGIN
OPEN emp_cur;
FETCH emp_cur
INTO emp_upd_pkg.comm_upd(p_comm), emp_upd_pkg.sal_upd(p_sal);
CLOSE emp_cur;
END comm_sal_upd;
You are using function so its returing a value. you must capture the value in your procedure as below:
PROCEDURE comm_sal_upd(
p_new_comm employees.commission_pct%TYPE,
p_new_sal employees.salary%TYPE)
IS
CURSOR emp_cur IS
SELECT commission_pct, salary
FROM employees;
var number;
var2 employees.salary%TYPE;
BEGIN
for rec in emp_cur
loop
var:= emp_upd_pkg.comm_upd(p_comm);
var2:=emp_upd_pkg.sal_upd(p_sal);
dbms_output.put_line('updated commission--'|| var || ' Updated Sal -- '|| var2);
end loop;
commit;
END comm_sal_upd;
First of all, few tricks to improve your functions.
You don't need to make two queries when you can make one. Instead of
v_new_comm employees.commission_pct%TYPE;
BEGIN
UPDATE employees
SET commission_pct = commission_pct * 1.1
WHERE employee_id = p_empid;
SELECT commission_pct
INTO v_new_comm
FROM employees
WHERE employee_id = p_empid;
RETURN v_new_comm;
use returning clause:
v_new_comm employees.commission_pct%TYPE;
BEGIN
UPDATE employees
SET commission_pct = commission_pct * 1.1
WHERE employee_id = p_empid
returning commission_pct
into v_new_comm;
RETURN v_new_comm;
Also, this exception block doesn't look like very helpful:
EXCEPTION
WHEN
NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20992, 'NO EXISTE EMPLEADO');
You just change the language of the error message.
As for the procedure to update all records, there are several issues:
You should avoid update many records one by one, it significantly reduces the performance. If possible, update them all together:
UPDATE employees
SET commission_pct = commission_pct * 1.1,
salary = salary + 350;
Cursors don't work this way. You shold use them to select data.
To process all rows in cursors, use loops:
PROCEDURE comm_sal_upd(
p_new_comm employees.commission_pct%TYPE,
p_new_sal employees.salary%TYPE)
IS
CURSOR emp_cur IS
SELECT commission_pct, salary
FROM employees;
v_comission number;
v_salary number;
BEGIN
OPEN emp_cur;
loop
FETCH emp_cur INTO v_comission, v_salary;
EXIT WHEN emp_cur%NOTFOUND;
<do something>
end loop;
CLOSE emp_cur;
END comm_sal_upd;
With one FETCH you process only one record.
I think the following is the kind of thing you are trying to do. (Untested, probably has bugs.) Note this is the least efficient way to do anything in PL/SQL, so it's just to demonstrate how you might structure procedures that call each other.
(btw I don't know if there is some textbook out there that tells people to code in uppercase, but there is really no need to.)
create or replace package body emp_upd_pkg
as
-- Update commission_pct for one employee:
procedure comm_upd
( p_empid employees.employee_id%type
, p_new_comm employees.commission_pct%type )
is
begin
update employees set commission_pct = commission_pct * p_new_comm
where employee_id = p_empid;
if sql%rowcount = 0 then
raise_application_error(-20992, 'Commission update failed: employee id ' || p_empid || ' not found.', false);
end if;
end comm_upd;
-- Update salary for one employee:
procedure sal_upd
( p_empid employees.employee_id%type
, p_new_sal employees.salary%type )
is
begin
update employees set salary = salary + p_new_sal
where employee_id = p_empid;
if sql%rowcount = 0 then
raise_application_error(-20993, 'Salary update failed: employee id ' || p_empid || ' not found.', false);
end if;
end sal_upd;
-- Update all employees:
procedure comm_sal_upd
( p_new_comm employees.commission_pct%type
, p_new_sal employees.salary%type )
is
begin
for r in (
select employee_id from employees
)
loop
comm_upd(r.employee_id, p_new_comm);
sal_upd(r.employee_id, p_new_sal);
end loop;
end comm_sal_upd;
end emp_upd_pkg;

Procedure cannot be executed because fetch returns more than requested number of rows

CREATE OR REPLACE
PROCEDURE P_raise
AS
v_salary NUMBER;
v_first_name VARCHAR2(20);
v_min_salary NUMBER;
BEGIN
SELECT first_name,
salary
INTO v_first_name,
v_salary
FROM employees
WHERE salary =
(SELECT MIN(salary) FROM employees
);
dbms_output.put_line(v_first_name||' has a minimum salary of '||v_salary);
SELECT MIN(salary) INTO v_min_salary FROM employees;
IF v_salary = v_min_salary THEN
UPDATE employees SET salary = salary*1.15 WHERE salary=v_min_salary;
dbms_output.Put_line(v_first_name||' has an increase of 15% in his salary ');
END IF;
END;
/
This messy code is used to find the min(salary) and then give it a raise.
There are two minimum salary records with the same value. How do I rework my code to by pass the error?
Thanks
You can't use SELECT INTO if the statement doesn't return exactly one row. Here you could use a loop, for instance with an implicit cursor:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE P_raise AS
BEGIN
FOR cc IN (SELECT first_name, salary, ROWID
INTO v_first_name, v_salary
FROM employees
WHERE salary = (SELECT MIN(salary) FROM employees)
FOR UPDATE NOWAIT) LOOP
dbms_output.put_line(cc.first_name || ' has a minimum salary of '
|| cc.salary);
UPDATE employees SET salary = salary * 1.15 WHERE ROWID = cc.rowid;
dbms_output.Put_line(cc.first_name
|| ' has an increase of 15% in his salary');
END LOOP;
END;
Or use a straight update (which would be more efficient in general, although you won't have the details of which row got updated):
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE P_raise AS
BEGIN
UPDATE employees
SET salary = salary * 1.15
WHERE salary = (SELECT MIN(salary) FROM employees);
dbms_output.put_line(SQL%ROWCOUNT
|| ' employees had their salary increased by 15%');
END;
