I have a requirement in such a way that it should join two tables with more than 100k records in one table and just 5 records in another table as shown below
Employee Dept Result
id Name deptid deptid Name Name deptid Name
1 Jane 1 1 Science Jane 1 Science
2 Jack 2 2 Maths Dane 1 Science
3 Dane 1 3 Biology Jack 2 Maths
4 Drack 3 4 Social Drack 3 Biology
5 Drim 5 Zoology Kery 4 Social
6 Drum 5 Drum 5 Zoology
7 Krack
8 Kery 4
.
.
100k
Which join need to be used to get the query in an better way to perform to get the result as shown.
I just want the query to join with other table from employee table only which has dept which i thought of below query but wanted to know is there any better way to do it.
Select e.name,d.deptid,d.Name from
(Select deptid,Name from Employee where deptid IS NOT NULL) A
and dept d where A.deptid=d.deptid;
Firstly not sure why you are performing your query the way you are. Should be more like
SELECT A.name, D.deptid,D.Name
FROM Employee A
INNER JOIN dept D
ON A.deptid = D.deptid
No need of the IS NOT NULL statement.
If this is a ONE TIME or OCCASIONAL thing and performance is key (not a permanent query in your DB) you can leave out the join altogether and do it using CASE:
SELECT
A.name, A.deptid,
CASE
WHEN A.deptid = 1 THEN "Science"
WHEN A.deptid = 2 THEN "Maths"
...[etc for the other 3 departments]...
END as Name
FROM Employee A
If this is to be permanent and performance is key, simply try applying an INDEX on the foreign key deptid in the Employee table and use my first query above.

Given the following Table (In Postgres):
EmployeeID
EmployeeName
ManagerID
1
David
NULL
2
Jessica
NULL
3
Gregg
1
4
Joe
3
5
Brandon
NULL
6
Leslie
4
7
Harry
6
8
Paul
NULL
9
Frank
5
Starting from Employee ID 7 (Harry) - how do I list only the records, bottom-up, in the hierarchy until I get to the ultimate manager (which should be David, in this case)? Should I use recursive CTE? If so, how does that query look?
Expected Output:
EmployeeID
EmployeeName
ManagerID
1
David
NULL
3
Gregg
1
4
Joe

6
Leslie

In the common table expression, you can recognize:
the base step, where you select the record relatively to employee no 7
the recursive step, where you match managers with currently retrieved employees.
The recursion stops when the INNER JOIN does not return any more extra record.
WITH RECURSIVE cte AS (
SELECT * FROM tab WHERE EmployeeID = 7
UNION ALL
SELECT mgr.*
FROM cte emp
INNER JOIN tab mgr
ON emp.ManagerID = mgr.EmployeeID
)
SELECT *
FROM cte

I have the below tables:
Corporate table:
CorporateId DirectorId ManagerId SalesId
1 1 1 1
2 2 2 3
3 3 4 5
Employee table:
EmployeeId FirstName LastName
1 Tim Sarah
2 Tom Paulsen
3 Tam Margo
4 Eli Lot
5 Ziva Lit
I want to display, for one corporate,the names of the Director, Manager and Sales in rows. Example with corporate 3:
EmployeeId FirstName LastName
3 Tam Margo
4 Eli Lot
5 Ziva Lit
How can I do that? I know how to display rows as columns using pivot, but unsure if pivot can be used here also.
Any help please?
You may join the two tables as the following:
SELECT E.EmployeeId, E.FirstName, E.LastName
FROM Employee E JOIN Corporate C
ON E.EmployeeID IN (C.DirectorId ,C.ManagerId ,C.SalesId)
WHERE C.CorporateId=3
See a demo.
You can first un-pivot your rows into columns by using cross apply, after which you simply join the pivoted rows to your employee table:
select e.*
from corporate c
cross apply (
select EmployeeId from (
values (Directorid), (ManagerId), (SalesId)
)r(EmployeeId)
)r
join employee e on e.EmployeeId = r.EmployeeId
where c.CorporateId = 3;
This is my very first Stackoverflow post, so I apologize if I am not formatting my question correctly. I'm pounding my head against the wall with what I'm sure is a simple problem. I have a table with a bunch of event information, about 10 columns as so:
Table: event_info
date location_id lead_user_id colead_user_id attendees start end <and a few more...>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2020-10-10 1 3 1 26 2100 2200 .
2020-10-11 3 2 4 18 0600 0700
2020-10-12 2 5 6 6 0800 0900
And another table with user information:
Table: users
user_id user_name display_name email phone city
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1 Joe S goofball ...
2 John T schmoofball ...
3 Jack U aloofball ...
4 Jim V poofball ...
5 Joy W tootball ...
6 George A boring ...
I want to create a view that has only a subset of the information, not full table joins. The event table lead_user_id and colead_user_id columns both refer to the user_id column in the users table.
I want to create a view like this:
date Location Lead Name CoLead Name attendees
---------------------------------------------------------------------
2020-10-10 1 Jack U Joe S 26
2020-10-11 3 John T Jim V 18
2020-10-12 2 Joy W George A 6
I have tried the following and several iterations like it to no avail...
SELECT
E.date, E.location,
U1.display_name AS Lead Name,
U2.display_name AS CoLead Name.
E.attendees
FROM
users U1, event_info E
INNER JOIN
event_info E ON U1.user_id = E.lead_user_id
INNER JOIN
users U2 ON U2.user_id = E.colead_user_id
And I get the dreaded
You have an error in your SQL Syntax
message. I'm not surprised, as I've really only ever used joins on single columns or nested select statements... this two columns pointing to one is throwing me for a loop. Help!
correct query for this matter
SELECT
E.date, E.location,
U1.display_name AS Lead Name,
(select display_name from users where user_id=E.colead_user_id) AS CoLead Name,
E.attendees
FROM
event_info E
INNER JOIN
users U1 ON U1.user_id = E.lead_user_id
I want to join fields from different tables into one doing a query with joins. From now I've only joined two tables but I have difficulties merging others more. Can you help me? These are my tables:

1 Sales
2 Marketing
3 Warehouse
Table Roles
---------------------------------
Role_ID
---------------------------------
1
2

Table Departments_Roles
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Dep_Role_ID Department_ID Role_ID Role_Name
--------------------------------------------------------------------
1 1 1 Admin
2 1 2 Client Attention
3 2 1 Admin
4 3 2 Client Attention
Table Employers
---------------------------------
Employer_Id Employer_Name
---------------------------------
1 John
2 Jess
3 Tom
4 George
5 David
What I want to see is:
Table Merged
-------------------------------------------------
Department_Name Employer_Name Role_Name
-------------------------------------------------
xxxxx yyyyy zzzz
This are just some example tables. Dont look for the sense of it.
I've tried using join, but I've never make something so complex.
Can you give me some advice?
Joining multiple tables is the same as joining one table, just repeated.
SELECT D.Department_Name, E.Employer_Name, DR.Role_Name
FROM Employers E --this is your base table
INNER JOIN magicalEmployerToDepartmentRoleLinkTable EDR --this connects our base table to the linking table
ON E.Employer_Id = EDR.Employer_Id
INNER JOIN Department_Roles DR --now we can pull any column in the Department_Roles table that is related back to our base table
ON ED.Department_Id = DR.Department_Id
INNER JOIN Department D --now we can pull any column in the Department table that is related back to the Department_Roles table
ON DR.Department_ID = D.Department_Id
Student
student_id FirstName LastName
---------------------------------------------------

Student_Course
course_id student_id courseName

1 1 Computer Science
2 1 David Beckham Studies
3 1 Geography

Student_clubs
club_id student_id club_name club_count
---------------------------------------------------
1 1 Footbal 10
2 1 Rugby 10
3 1 Syncronized Swimming 10
4 3 Tennis 15
In the above example, student with id = 1 takes 3 course and is part of 3 clubs.
If i was to find out which courses a student is involved in or which club the student is part of i can do it but i will need to run two queries. Is it possible to run a single query against the
tables listed above so that the results come out like this:
Output
student_id FirstName Student_associated_courses Student_associated_clubs
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 Joe 1,2,3 Football, Rugby, Syncronized swimming
3 David 1,3 Tennis
Is it possible to get the above output with just one query? I am using JDBC to get the data so i am trying to see if i can avoid multiple trips to get the necessary data.
use GROUP_CONCAT with DISTINCT in MySQL
SELECT a.student_ID, a.firstname,
GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT b.course_ID),
GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT c.club_name)
FROM student a
INNER JOIN student_Course b
ON a.student_id = b.student_ID
INNER JOIN student_clubs c
ON a.student_ID = c.student_ID
GROUP BY a.student_ID, a.firstname
See SQLFiddle Demo
Try it like this:
SELECT *
FROM Student s JOIN
(SELECT sc."student_id", listagg(sc."course_id", ',')within group(ORDER BY sc."course_id")
FROM Student_Course sc
GROUP BY sc."student_id") s_course ON s."student_id"=s_course."student_id"
JOIN (SELECT sl."student_id", listagg(sl."club_name", ',')within GROUP(ORDER BY sl."club_name")
FROM Student_clubs sl
GROUP BY sl."student_id") s_club ON s."student_id"=s_club."student_id"
The "catch" is that LISTAGG doesn't work with DISTINCT keyword
