I'm struggling to get the correct result with this query:
select max(kts.my_date), kts.name
join ktt on ktt.someId = kts.someOtherId
where ktt.someId = 'example'
group by kts.name;
I have two (possibly stupid) questions:
Will this max() take time into account? I know that order by does if the dates are the same. Does max do the same?
This is connected to my previous question, but when I run the query above, if the dates are same, it orders it by the name. I want the latest date at the top. Do I need to put an order by clause for the date in? If so, using Max is pointless, right?
Thanks for the help.
Yes,
--2
select max(kts.my_date) over (partition by kts.name) as maxdate, kts.name
from -- chose your table
join ktt on ktt.someId = kts.someOtherId
where ktt.someId = 'example'
order by --chose here your column
give this a try

I am struggling with a SQL query.
My query looks something like this:
Select
Count(user-id),
sum(distinct(date),
Sum(characters-posted)
From (
Select
Date,
User-Id,
Session-Id,
Characters—posted,
Variant-id
From database-name
Where date between ‘2022-09-01’ and ‘2022-09-31’)
This works ok. But, there is another field in the table “mailing-list”, which is just 0 or 1. I want to only get activity for members from the date when they join the mailing list onwards, even if they then leave the list, so can’t just do “where mailing-list=1”.
How can I do this?
It's not obvious what works fine for you as it seems to be uncommon to sum dates, given it is a regular date format. Are you trying to get number of active dates? as for the bottom question you might.
As for your buttom line quesiton, it seems that you might want to use a cte or subselect in a join.
your query...
from db_name dbn
inner join (select user_id, min(date) date from database_name
where mailing_list = 1 group by 1) start_date
on start_date.user_id = dbn.user_id
and start_date.date <= dbn.date
That way you're only getting activity starting from the first time your users join the mailing list.
But I still think you have an error in your final query, check it out.
I have a question regarding the max-statement in a select -
Without the MAX-statemen i have this select:
SELECT stockID, DATE, close, symbol
FROM ta_stockprice JOIN ta_stock ON ta_stock.id = ta_stockprice.stockID
WHERE stockid = 8648
ORDER BY close
At the end i only want to have the max row for the close-column so i tried:
Why i didn´t get date = "2021-07-02" as output?
(i saw that i allways get "2021-07-01" as output - no matter if i use MAX / MIN / AVG...)
The MAX() turns the query into an aggregation query. With no GROUP BY, it returns one row. But the query is syntactically incorrect, because it mixes aggregated and unaggregated columns.
Once upon a time, MySQL allowed such syntax in violation of the SQL Standard but returned values from arbitrary rows for the unaggreged columns.
Use ORDER BY to do what you want:
SELECT stockID, DATE, close, symbol
FROM ta_stockprice JOIN ta_stock ON ta_stock.id = ta_stockprice.stockID
WHERE stockid = 8648
ORDER BY close DESC
LIMIT 1;
I have a dataset (Call it TableA) that records all data for a single year, in columns by month
What I want to do is be able to use a single query to get a beginning and ending balance for the first month on a single row, but that would require pulling in the Balance 12 from the previous year. similar to this:
I need to be able to do this as a Direct Query in PowerBI, so merging separate queries in PowerQuery won't work.
Are there any suggestions on how to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance!
SELECT CurrentYear.Item, CurrentYear.FiscYr, PreviousYear.Balance12, CurrentYear.Balance1
FROM TableA CurrentYear
LEFT OUTER JOIN TableA PreviousYear ON CurrentYear.Item = PreviousYear.Item AND PreviousYear.FiscYr = CurrentYear.FiscYr - 1
You can use lag():
select item, fiscyr, lag(balance12) over (partition by item order by fiscyr) as beginning,
balanc1 as ending
from t;
I am currently still on my SQL educational journey and need some help!
The query I have is as below;
SELECT
Audit_Non_Conformance_Records.kf_ID_Client_Reference_Number,
Audit_Non_Conformance_Records.TimeStamp_Creation,
Audit_Non_Conformance_Records.Clause,
Audit_Non_Conformance_Records.NC_type,
Audit_Non_Conformance_Records.NC_Rect_Received,
Audit_Non_Conformance_Records.Audit_Num
FROM Audit_Non_Conformance_Records
I am trying to tweak this to show only the most recent results based on Audit_Non_Conformance_Records.TimeStamp_Creation
I have tried using MAX() but all this does is shows the latest date for all records.
basically the results of the above give me this;
But I only need the result with the date 02/10/2019 as this is the latest result. There may be multiple results however. So for example if 02/10/2019 had never happened I would need all of the idividual recirds from the 14/10/2019 ones.
Does that make any sense at all?
You can filter with a subquery:
SELECT
kf_ID_Client_Reference_Number,
TimeStamp_Creation,
Clause,
NC_type,
NC_Rect_Received,
Audit_Num
FROM Audit_Non_Conformance_Records a
where TimeStamp_Creation = (
select max(TimeStamp_Creation)
from Audit_Non_Conformance_Records
)
This will give you all whose TimeStamp_Creation is equal to the greater value available in the table.
If you want all records that have the greatest day (exluding time), then you can do:
SELECT
kf_ID_Client_Reference_Number,
TimeStamp_Creation,
Clause,
NC_type,
NC_Rect_Received,
Audit_Num
FROM Audit_Non_Conformance_Records a
where cast(TimeStamp_Creation as date) = (
select cast(max(TimeStamp_Creation) as date)
from Audit_Non_Conformance_Records
)
Edit
If you want the latest record per refNumber, then you can correlate the subquery, like so:
SELECT
kf_ID_Client_Reference_Number,
TimeStamp_Creation,
Clause,
NC_type,
NC_Rect_Received,
Audit_Num
FROM Audit_Non_Conformance_Records a
where TimeStamp_Creation = (
select max(TimeStamp_Creation)
from Audit_Non_Conformance_Records a1
where a1.refNumber = a.refNumber
)
For performance, you want an index on (refNumber, TimeStamp_Creation).
If you want the latest date in SQL Server, you can express this as:
SELECT TOP (1) WITH TIES ancr.kf_ID_Client_Reference_Number,
ancr.TimeStamp_Creation,
ancr.Clause,
ancr.NC_type,
ancr.NC_Rect_Received,
ancr.Audit_Num
FROM Audit_Non_Conformance_Records ancr
ORDER BY CONVERT(date, ancr.TimeStamp_Creation) DESC;
SQL Server is pretty good about handling dates with conversions, so I would not be surprised if this used an index on TimeStamp_Creation.
This is my query.
AND PTP.END_DATE = (Select MAX(END_DATE) FROM PAY_TIME_PERIODS WHERE END_DATE <=:to_date)-- Parameter
I'm trying to get latest end date from table but not getting all persons latest dates getting only few persons only.
If you have any Idea please help me
This is probably not the best way to write the query, but you don't provide much information.
Your subquery would seem to need a correlation clause:
PTP.END_DATE = (SELECT MAX(END_DATE)
FROM PAY_TIME_PERIODS PTP2
WHERE PTP2.?? = PTP.?? AND END_DATE <=:to_date
)-- Parameter
The ?? is for whatever column identifies a person in your table.
