I am having no luck attempting to get the top (x number) of rows from a joined table. I want the top 2 resources (ordered by name) which in this case should be Katie and Simon and regardless of what I've tried, I can't seem to get it right. You can see below what I've commented out - and what looks like it should work (but doesn't). I cannot use a union. Any ideas?
select distinct
RTRESOURCE.RNAME as Resource,
RTTASK.TASK as taskname, SUM(distinct SOTRAN.QTY2BILL) AS quantitytobill from SOTRAN AS SOTRAN INNER JOIN RTTASK AS RTTASK ON sotran.taskid = rttask.taskid
left outer JOIN RTRESOURCE AS RTRESOURCE ON rtresource.keyno=sotran.resid
WHERE sotran.phantom<>'y' and sotran.pgroup = 'L' and sotran.timesheet = 'y' and sotran.taskid >0 AND RTRESOURCE.KEYNO in ('193','159','200') AND ( SOTRAN.ADDDATE>='8/15/2015 12:00:00 AM' AND SOTRAN.ADDDATE<'9/3/2015 11:59:59 PM' )
//and RTRESOURCE.RNAME in ( select distinct top 2 RTRESOURCE.RNAME from RTRESOURCE order by RTRESOURCE.RNAME)
//and ( select count(*) from RTRESOURCE RTRESOURCE2 where RTRESOURCE2.RNAME = RTRESOURCE.RNAME ) <= 2
GROUP BY RTRESOURCE.rname,RTTASK.task,RTTASK.taskid,RTTASK.mdsstring ORDER BY Resource,taskname
You should provide a schema.
But lets assume your query work. You create a CTE.
WITH youQuery as (
SELECT *
FROM < you big join query>
), maxBill as (
SELECT Resource, Max(quantitytobill) as Bill
FROM yourQuery
)
SELECT top 2 *
FROM maxBill
ORDER BY Bill
IF you want top 2 alphabetical
WITH youQuery as (
SELECT *
FROM < you big join query>
), Names as (
SELECT distinct Resource
FROM yourQuery
Order by Resource
)
SELECT top 2 *
FROM Names

Hello I have been trying to delete a repeated value on the following UNION query with the following results (image). How can I filter out the value LW_ID=8232 with AANTALLN =0. I need to find a way taht if in the first query AANTALLN >0 is found, then on the second part of the union query not insert it again. Thanks "
With LESEENHEIDLOOPBAAN as (

,* FROM
(
SELECT * FROM

SELECT

)
) WHERE RN = 1
This way you eliminate the duplicates.
If I have a string with numbers separated by commas, like this:
Declare #string varchar(20) = '123,456,789'
And would like to return every possible combination + sort order of the values by doing this:
Select Combination FROM dbo.GetAllCombinations(#string)
Which would in result return this:
123
456
789
123,456
456,123
123,789
789,123
456,789
789,456
123,456,789
123,789,456
456,789,123
456,123,789
789,456,123
789,123,456
As you can see not only is every combination returned, but also each combination+sort order as well. The example shows only 3 values separated by commas, but should parse any amount--Recursive.
The logic needed would be somewhere in the realm of using a WITH CUBE statement, but the problem with using WITH CUBE (in a table structure instead of CSV of course), is that it won't shuffle the order of the values 123,456 456,123 etc., and will only provide each combination, which is only half of the battle.
Currently I have no idea what to try. If someone can provide some assistance it would be appreciated.
I use a User Defined Table-valued Function called split_delimiter that takes 2 values: the #delimited_string and the #delimiter_type.
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[split_delimiter](#delimited_string VARCHAR(8000), #delimiter_type CHAR(1))
RETURNS TABLE AS
RETURN
WITH cte10(num) AS
(
SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL
SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL
SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1
)
,cte100(num) AS
(
SELECT 1
FROM cte10 t1, cte10 t2
)
,cte10000(num) AS
(
SELECT 1
FROM cte100 t1, cte100 t2
)
,cte1(num) AS
(
SELECT TOP (ISNULL(DATALENGTH(#delimited_string),0)) ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY (SELECT NULL))
FROM cte10000
)
,cte2(num) AS
(
SELECT 1
UNION ALL
SELECT t.num+1
FROM cte1 t
WHERE SUBSTRING(#delimited_string,t.num,1) = #delimiter_type
)
,cte3(num,[len]) AS
(
SELECT t.num
,ISNULL(NULLIF(CHARINDEX(#delimiter_type,#delimited_string,t.num),0)-t.num,8000)
FROM cte2 t
)
SELECT delimited_item_num = ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY t.num)
,delimited_value = SUBSTRING(#delimited_string, t.num, t.[len])
FROM cte3 t;
Using that I was able to parse the CSV to a table and join it back to itself multiple times and use WITH ROLLUP to get the permutations you are looking for.
WITH Numbers as
(
SELECT delimited_value
FROM dbo.split_delimiter('123,456,789',',')
)
SELECT CAST(Nums1.delimited_value AS VARCHAR)
,ISNULL(CAST(Nums2.delimited_value AS VARCHAR),'')
,ISNULL(CAST(Nums3.delimited_value AS VARCHAR),'')
,CAST(Nums4.delimited_value AS VARCHAR)
FROM Numbers as Nums1
LEFT JOIN Numbers as Nums2
ON Nums2.delimited_value not in (Nums1.delimited_value)
LEFT JOIN Numbers as Nums3
ON Nums3.delimited_value not in (Nums1.delimited_value, Nums2.delimited_value)
LEFT JOIN Numbers as Nums4
ON Nums4.delimited_value not in (Nums1.delimited_value, Nums2.delimited_value, Nums3.delimited_value)
GROUP BY CAST(Nums1.delimited_value AS VARCHAR)
,ISNULL(CAST(Nums2.delimited_value AS VARCHAR),'')
,ISNULL(CAST(Nums3.delimited_value AS VARCHAR),'')
,CAST(Nums4.delimited_value AS VARCHAR) WITH ROLLUP
If you will potentially have more than 3 or 4, you'll want to expand your code accordingly.
I am sorry for this but my previous question was not properly framed, so creating another post.
My question is similar to following question:
http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:14582643282111
I need to write inner query which will give me a list of dates between two date ranges to outer query.
My inner query returns following 2 rows:
SELECT request.REQ_DATE, request.DUE_DATE FROM myTable where id = 100
REQ_DATE DUE_DATE
3/19/2013 3/21/2013
3/8/2013 3/8/2013
So I need inner query which will return following dates to outer query:
3/19/2013
3/20/2013
3/21/2013
3/8/2013
The answer in above post has start date and end date hard coded and in my case, it is coming from other table. So I am trying to write query like this which does not work:
Select * from outerTable where my_date in
(
select to_date(r.REQ_DATE) + rownum -1 from all_objects,
(
SELECT REQ_DATE, DUE_DATE
FROM myTable where id = 100
) r
where rownum <= to_date(r.DUE_DATE,'dd-mon-yyyy')-to_date(r.REQ_DATE,'dd-mon-yyyy')+1;
)
with
T_from_to as (
select
trunc(REQ_DATE) as d_from,
trunc(DUE_DATE) as d_to
FROM myTable
where id = 100
),
T_seq as (
select level-1 as delta
from dual
connect by level-1 <= (select max(d_to-d_from) from T_from_to)
)
select distinct d_from + delta
from T_from_to, T_seq
where d_from + delta <= d_to
order by 1
I have a product table with 15 fields like ItemID (primary),Name ,UPC,Price,Cost, etc.
Now I need to print labels the user can say
from Item "ABC" I need 15 labels
from item 'XYZ" I need 10 labels
I need a SQL statement which I will send the ItemID and the label Qty for Each record and it should give me back for each label a record for example 15 records for item "ABC" and 10 records for Item "XYZ" and so on
SELECT <fields>
FROM Mytable
Where Item = 'ABC'
GO 10
Will select those fields from that table 10 times in a row in 10 result sets.
Really though it sounds like you need to do what you are trying to do not in SQL, but in your calling application.
I agree this should be done on the client but if you insist, following duplicates each record 100 times and selects the amount you need from it.
;WITH ATable AS (
SELECT Item = 'ABC'
UNION ALL SELECT Item = 'XYZ'
)
, Temp (Item, Amount) AS (
SELECT 'ABC', 15
UNION ALL SELECT 'XYZ', 10
)
, q AS (
SELECT ID = 1
, Item
FROM ATable
UNION ALL
SELECT ID = q.ID +1
, q.Item
FROM q
WHERE ID < 100
)
SELECT q.*
FROM q
INNER JOIN Temp t ON t.Item = q.Item
AND t.Amount >= q.ID
You create the dynamic table aliased as r below. Works for amounts up to 2047.
select t.*
from
(select label='ABC', required=15 union all
select label='XYZ', required=10) r
inner join tbl t
on t.ItemID = r.label
inner join master..spt_values v
on v.type=Number and v.number between 1 and r.required
order by t.ItemID
WITH y AS (
WITH x AS (
SELECT * FROM MyTable
)
SELECT * FROM x
)
SELECT * FROM y
Does something like this work? I tried it earlier but I couldn't get it to work.
While not strictly nested, you can use common table expressions to reuse previous queries in subsequent ones.
To do this, the form of the statement you are looking for would be
WITH x AS
(
SELECT * FROM MyTable
),
y AS
(
SELECT * FROM x
)
SELECT * FROM y
You can do the following, which is referred to as a recursive query:
WITH y
AS
(
SELECT x, y, z
FROM MyTable
WHERE [base_condition]
UNION ALL
SELECT x, y, z
FROM MyTable M
INNER JOIN y ON M.[some_other_condition] = y.[some_other_condition]
)
SELECT *
FROM y
You may not need this functionality. I've done the following just to organize my queries better:
WITH y
AS
(
SELECT *
FROM MyTable
WHERE [base_condition]
),
x
AS
(
SELECT *
FROM y
WHERE [something_else]
)
SELECT *
FROM x
With does not work embedded, but it does work consecutive
;WITH A AS(
...
),
B AS(
...
)
SELECT *
FROM A
UNION ALL
SELECT *
FROM B
EDIT
Fixed the syntax...
Also, have a look at the following example

These answers are pretty good, but as far as getting the items to order properly, you'd be better off looking at this article

Here's an example of his query.
WITH paths AS (
SELECT
EmployeeID,
CONVERT(VARCHAR(900), CONCAT('.', EmployeeID, '.')) AS FullPath
FROM EmployeeHierarchyWide
WHERE ManagerID IS NULL
UNION ALL
SELECT
ehw.EmployeeID,
CONVERT(VARCHAR(900), CONCAT(p.FullPath, ehw.EmployeeID, '.')) AS FullPath
FROM paths AS p
JOIN EmployeeHierarchyWide AS ehw ON ehw.ManagerID = p.EmployeeID
)
SELECT * FROM paths order by FullPath
we can create nested cte.please see the below cte in example
;with cte_data as
(
Select * from [HumanResources].[Department]
),cte_data1 as
(
Select * from [HumanResources].[Department]
)
select * from cte_data,cte_data1
I was trying to measure the time between events with the exception of what one entry that has multiple processes between the start and end. I needed this in the context of other single line processes.
I used a select with an inner join as my select statement within the Nth cte. The second cte I needed to extract the start date on X and end date on Y and used 1 as an id value to left join to put them on a single line.
Works for me, hope this helps.
cte_extract
as
(
select ps.Process as ProcessEvent
, ps.ProcessStartDate
, ps.ProcessEndDate
-- select strt.*
from dbo.tbl_some_table ps
inner join (select max(ProcessStatusId) ProcessStatusId
from dbo.tbl_some_table
where Process = 'some_extract_tbl'
and convert(varchar(10), ProcessStartDate, 112) < '29991231'
) strt on strt.ProcessStatusId = ps.ProcessStatusID
),
cte_rls
as
(
select 'Sample' as ProcessEvent,
x.ProcessStartDate, y.ProcessEndDate from (
select 1 as Id, ps.Process as ProcessEvent
, ps.ProcessStartDate
, ps.ProcessEndDate
-- select strt.*
from dbo.tbl_some_table ps
inner join (select max(ProcessStatusId) ProcessStatusId
from dbo.tbl_some_table
where Process = 'XX Prcss'
and convert(varchar(10), ProcessStartDate, 112) < '29991231'
) strt on strt.ProcessStatusId = ps.ProcessStatusID
) x
left join (
select 1 as Id, ps.Process as ProcessEvent
, ps.ProcessStartDate
, ps.ProcessEndDate
-- select strt.*
from dbo.tbl_some_table ps
inner join (select max(ProcessStatusId) ProcessStatusId
from dbo.tbl_some_table
where Process = 'YY Prcss Cmpltd'
and convert(varchar(10), ProcessEndDate, 112) < '29991231'
) enddt on enddt.ProcessStatusId = ps.ProcessStatusID
) y on y.Id = x.Id
),
.... other ctes
Nested 'With' is not supported, but you can always use the second With as a subquery, for example:
WITH A AS (
--WITH B AS ( SELECT COUNT(1) AS _CT FROM C ) SELECT CASE _CT WHEN 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END FROM B --doesn't work
SELECT CASE WHEN count = 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS CT FROM (SELECT COUNT(1) AS count FROM dual)
union all
select 100 AS CT from dual
)
select CT FROM A
