Order by "In clause" - sql

I have a query wherein I use "In" clause in it.
Now I wish to have the result set in same order as my In clause.
For example -
select Id,Name from mytable where id in (3,6,7,1)
Result Set :
|Id | Name |
------------
| 3 | ABS |
| 6 | NVK |
| 7 | USD |
| 1 | KSK |
I do not want to use any temp table.
Is it possible to achieve the goal in one query?

You can use CTE as well
with filterID as
(
3 ID, 1 as sequence
union
6, 2
union
7, 3
union
1, 4
)
select mytable.* from mytable
inner join filterID on filterID.ID = mytable.ID
order by filterID.sequence ;

In T-SQL, you can do this using a big case:
select Id, Name
from mytable
where id in (3, 6, 7, 1)
order by (case id when 3 then 1 when 6 then 2 when 7 then 3 else 4 end);
Or with charindex():
order by charindex(',' + cast(id as varchar(255)) + ',',
',3,6,7,1,')

SQL Server recursive query to show path of parents

I am working with SQL Server statements and have one table like:
| item | value | parentItem |
+------+-------+------------+
| 1 | 2test | 2 |
| 2 | 3test | 3 |
| 3 | 4test | 4 |
| 5 | 1test | 1 |
| 6 | 3test | 3 |
| 7 | 2test | 2 |
And I would like to get the below result using a SQL Server statement:
| item1 | value1 |
+-------+--------------------------+
| 1 | /4test/3test/2test |
| 2 | /4test/3test |
| 3 | /4test |
| 5 | /4test/3test/2test/1test |
| 6 | /4test/3test |
| 7 | /4test/3test/2test |
I didn't figure out the correct SQL to get all the values for all the ids according to parentItem.
I have tried this SQL :
with all_path as
(
select item, value, parentItem
from table
union all
select a.item, a.value, a.parentItem
from table a, all_path b
where a.item = b.parentItem
)
select
item as item1,
stuff(select '/' + value
from all_path
order by item asc
for xml path ('')), 1, 0, '') as value1
from
all_path
But got the "value1" column in result like
/4test/4test/4test/3test/3test/3test/3test/2test/2test/2test/2test
Could you please help me with that? Thanks a lot.
based on the expected output you gave, use the recursive part to concatenate the value
;with yourTable as (
select item, value, parentItem
from (values
(1,'2test',2)
,(2,'3test',3)
,(3,'4test',4)
,(5,'1test',1)
,(6,'3test',3)
,(7,'2test',2)
)x (item,value,parentItem)
)
, DoRecursivePart as (
select 1 as Pos, item, convert(varchar(max),value) value, parentItem
from yourTable
union all
select drp.pos +1, drp.item, convert(varchar(max), yt.value + '/' + drp.value), yt.parentItem
from yourTable yt
inner join DoRecursivePart drp on drp.parentItem = yt.item
)
select drp.item, '/' + drp.value
from DoRecursivePart drp
inner join (select item, max(pos) mpos
from DoRecursivePart
group by item) [filter] on [filter].item = drp.item and [filter].mpos = drp.Pos
order by item
gives
item value
----------- ------------------
1 /4test/3test/2test
2 /4test/3test
3 /4test
5 /4test/3test/2test/1test
6 /4test/3test
7 /4test/3test/2test
Here's the sample data
drop table if exists dbo.test_table;
go
create table dbo.test_table(
item int not null,
[value] varchar(100) not null,
parentItem int not null);
insert dbo.test_table values
(1,'test1',2),
(2,'test2',3),
(3,'test3',4),
(5,'test4',1),
(6,'test5',3),
(7,'test6',2);
Here's the query
;with recur_cte(item, [value], parentItem, h_level) as (
select item, [value], parentItem, 1
from dbo.test_table tt
union all
select rc.item, tt.[value], tt.parentItem, rc.h_level+1
from dbo.test_table tt join recur_cte rc on tt.item=rc.parentItem)
select rc.item,
stuff((select '/' + cast(parentItem as varchar)
from recur_cte c2
where rc.item = c2.item
order by h_level desc FOR XML PATH('')), 1, 1, '') [value1]
from recur_cte rc
group by item;
Here's the results
item value1
1 4/3/2
2 4/3
3 4
5 4/3/2/1
6 4/3
7 4/3/2

SQL select all rows in a single row's "history"

I have a table that looks like this:
ID | PARENT_ID
--------------
0 | NULL
1 | 0
2 | NULL
3 | 1
4 | 2
5 | 4
6 | 3
Being an SQL noob, I'm not sure if I can accomplish what I would like in a single command.
What I would like is to start at row 6, and recursively follow the "history", using the PARENT_ID column to reference the ID column.
The result (in my mind) should look something like:
6|3
3|1
1|0
0|NULL
I already tried something like this:
SELECT T1.ID
FROM Table T1, Table T2
WHERE T1.ID = 6
OR T1.PARENT_ID = T2.PARENT_ID;
but that just gave me a strange result.
With a recursive cte.
If you want to start from the maximum id:
with recursive cte (id, parent_id) as (
select t.*
from (
select *
from tablename
order by id desc
limit 1
) t
union all
select t.*
from tablename t inner join cte c
on t.id = c.parent_id
)
select * from cte
See the demo.
If you want to start specifically from id = 6:
with recursive cte (id, parent_id) as (
select *
from tablename
where id = 6
union all
select t.*
from tablename t inner join cte c
on t.id = c.parent_id
)
select * from cte;
See the demo.
Results:
| id | parent_id |
| --- | --------- |
| 6 | 3 |
| 3 | 1 |
| 1 | 0 |
| 0 | |

Possible to use a column name in a UDF in SQL?

I have a query in which a series of steps is repeated constantly over different columns, for example:
SELECT DISTINCT
MAX (
CASE
WHEN table_2."GRP1_MINIMUM_DATE" <= cohort."ANCHOR_DATE" THEN 1
ELSE 0
END)
OVER (PARTITION BY cohort."USER_ID")
AS "GRP1_MINIMUM_DATE",
MAX (
CASE
WHEN table_2."GRP2_MINIMUM_DATE" <= cohort."ANCHOR_DATE" THEN 1
ELSE 0
END)
OVER (PARTITION BY cohort."USER_ID")
AS "GRP2_MINIMUM_DATE"
FROM INPUT_COHORT cohort
LEFT JOIN INVOLVE_EVER table_2 ON cohort."USER_ID" = table_2."USER_ID"
I was considering writing a function to accomplish this as doing so would save on space in my query. I have been reading a bit about UDF in SQL but don't yet understand if it is possible to pass a column name in as a parameter (i.e. simply switch out "GRP1_MINIMUM_DATE" for "GRP2_MINIMUM_DATE" etc.). What I would like is a query which looks like this
SELECT DISTINCT
FUNCTION(table_2."GRP1_MINIMUM_DATE") AS "GRP1_MINIMUM_DATE",
FUNCTION(table_2."GRP2_MINIMUM_DATE") AS "GRP2_MINIMUM_DATE",
FUNCTION(table_2."GRP3_MINIMUM_DATE") AS "GRP3_MINIMUM_DATE",
FUNCTION(table_2."GRP4_MINIMUM_DATE") AS "GRP4_MINIMUM_DATE"
FROM INPUT_COHORT cohort
LEFT JOIN INVOLVE_EVER table_2 ON cohort."USER_ID" = table_2."USER_ID"
Can anyone tell me if this is possible/point me to some resource that might help me out here?
Thanks!
There is no such direct as #Tejash already stated, but the thing looks like your database model is not ideal - it would be better to have a table that has USER_ID and GRP_ID as keys and then MINIMUM_DATE as seperate field.
Without changing the table structure, you can use UNPIVOT query to mimic this design:
WITH INVOLVE_EVER(USER_ID, GRP1_MINIMUM_DATE, GRP2_MINIMUM_DATE, GRP3_MINIMUM_DATE, GRP4_MINIMUM_DATE)
AS (SELECT 1, SYSDATE, SYSDATE, SYSDATE, SYSDATE FROM dual UNION ALL
SELECT 2, SYSDATE-1, SYSDATE-2, SYSDATE-3, SYSDATE-4 FROM dual)
SELECT *
FROM INVOLVE_EVER
unpivot ( minimum_date FOR grp_id IN ( GRP1_MINIMUM_DATE AS 1, GRP2_MINIMUM_DATE AS 2, GRP3_MINIMUM_DATE AS 3, GRP4_MINIMUM_DATE AS 4))
Result:
| USER_ID | GRP_ID | MINIMUM_DATE |
|---------|--------|--------------|
| 1 | 1 | 09/09/19 |
| 1 | 2 | 09/09/19 |
| 1 | 3 | 09/09/19 |
| 1 | 4 | 09/09/19 |
| 2 | 1 | 09/08/19 |
| 2 | 2 | 09/07/19 |
| 2 | 3 | 09/06/19 |
| 2 | 4 | 09/05/19 |
With this you can write your query without further code duplication and if you need use PIVOT-syntax to get one line per USER_ID.
The final query could then look like this:
WITH INVOLVE_EVER(USER_ID, GRP1_MINIMUM_DATE, GRP2_MINIMUM_DATE, GRP3_MINIMUM_DATE, GRP4_MINIMUM_DATE)
AS (SELECT 1, SYSDATE, SYSDATE, SYSDATE, SYSDATE FROM dual UNION ALL
SELECT 2, SYSDATE-1, SYSDATE-2, SYSDATE-3, SYSDATE-4 FROM dual)
, INPUT_COHORT(USER_ID, ANCHOR_DATE)
AS (SELECT 1, SYSDATE-1 FROM dual UNION ALL
SELECT 2, SYSDATE-2 FROM dual UNION ALL
SELECT 3, SYSDATE-3 FROM dual)
-- Above is sampledata query starts from here:
, unpiv AS (SELECT *
FROM INVOLVE_EVER
unpivot ( minimum_date FOR grp_id IN ( GRP1_MINIMUM_DATE AS 1, GRP2_MINIMUM_DATE AS 2, GRP3_MINIMUM_DATE AS 3, GRP4_MINIMUM_DATE AS 4)))
SELECT qcsj_c000000001000000 user_id, GRP1_MINIMUM_DATE, GRP2_MINIMUM_DATE, GRP3_MINIMUM_DATE, GRP4_MINIMUM_DATE
FROM INPUT_COHORT cohort
LEFT JOIN unpiv table_2
ON cohort.USER_ID = table_2.USER_ID
pivot (MAX(CASE WHEN minimum_date <= cohort."ANCHOR_DATE" THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS MINIMUM_DATE
FOR grp_id IN (1 AS GRP1,2 AS GRP2,3 AS GRP3,4 AS GRP4))
Result:
| USER_ID | GRP1_MINIMUM_DATE | GRP2_MINIMUM_DATE | GRP3_MINIMUM_DATE | GRP4_MINIMUM_DATE |
|---------|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------|
| 3 | | | | |
| 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 2 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
This way you only have to write your calculation logic once (see line starting with pivot).

Oracle Sql: Obtain a Sum of a Group, if Subgroup condition met

I have a dataset upon which I am trying to obain a summed value for each group, if a subgroup within each group meets a certain condition. I am not sure if this is possible, or if I am approaching this problem incorrectly.
My data is structured as following:
+----+-------------+---------+-------+
| ID | Transaction | Product | Value |
+----+-------------+---------+-------+
| 1 | A | 0 | 10 |
| 1 | A | 1 | 15 |
| 1 | A | 2 | 20 |
| 1 | B | 1 | 5 |
| 1 | B | 2 | 10 |
+----+-------------+---------+-------+
In this example I want to obtain the sum of values by the ID column, if a transaction does not contain any products labeled 0. In the above described scenario, all values related to Transaction A would be excluded because Product 0 was purchased. With the outcome being:
+----+-------------+
| ID | Sum of Value|
+----+-------------+
| 1 | 15 |
+----+-------------+
This process would repeat for multiple IDs with each ID only containing the sum of values if the transaction does not contain product 0.
Hmmm . . . one method is to use not exists for the filtering:
select id, sum(value)
from t
where not exists (select 1
from t t2
where t2.id = t.id and t2.transaction = t.transaction and
t2.product = 0
)
group by id;
Do not need to use correlated subquery with not exists.
Just use group by.
with s (id, transaction, product, value) as (
select 1, 'A', 0, 10 from dual union all
select 1, 'A', 1, 15 from dual union all
select 1, 'A', 2, 20 from dual union all
select 1, 'B', 1, 5 from dual union all
select 1, 'B', 2, 10 from dual)
select id, sum(sum_value) as sum_value
from
(select id, transaction,
sum(value) as sum_value
from s
group by id, transaction
having count(decode(product, 0, 1)) = 0
)
group by id;
ID SUM_VALUE
---------- ----------
1 15

SQL query update by grouping

I'm dealing with some legacy data in an Oracle table and have the following
--------------------------------------------
| RefNo | ID |
--------------------------------------------
| FOO/BAR/BAZ/AAAAAAAAAA | 1 |
| FOO/BAR/BAZ/BBBBBBBBBB | 1 |
| FOO/BAR/BAZ/CCCCCCCCCC | 1 |
| FOO/BAR/BAZ/DDDDDDDDDD | 1 |
--------------------------------------------
For each of the /FOO/BAR/BAZ/% records I want to make the ID a Unique incrementing number.
Is there a method to do this in SQL?
Thanks in advance
EDIT
Sorry for not being specific. I have several groups of records /FOO/BAR/BAZ/, /FOO/ZZZ/YYY/. The same transformation needs to occur for each of these other (example) groups. The recnum can't be used I want ID to start from 1, incrementing, for each group of records I have to change.
Sorry for making a mess of my first post. Output should be
--------------------------------------------
| RefNo | ID |
--------------------------------------------
| FOO/BAR/BAZ/AAAAAAAAAA | 1 |
| FOO/BAR/BAZ/BBBBBBBBBB | 2 |
| FOO/BAR/BAZ/CCCCCCCCCC | 3 |
| FOO/BAR/BAZ/DDDDDDDDDD | 4 |
| FOO/ZZZ/YYY/AAAAAAAAAA | 1 |
| FOO/ZZZ/YYY/BBBBBBBBBB | 2 |
--------------------------------------------
Let's try something like this(Oracle version 10g and higher):
SQL> with t1 as(
2 select 'FOO/BAR/BAZ/AAAAAAAAAA' as RefNo, 1 as ID from dual union all
3 select 'FOO/BAR/BAZ/BBBBBBBBBB', 1 from dual union all
4 select 'FOO/BAR/BAZ/CCCCCCCCCC', 1 from dual union all
5 select 'FOO/BAR/BAZ/DDDDDDDDDD', 1 from dual union all
6 select 'FOO/ZZZ/YYY/AAAAAAAAAA', 1 from dual union all
7 select 'FOO/ZZZ/YYY/BBBBBBBBBB', 1 from dual union all
8 select 'FOO/ZZZ/YYY/CCCCCCCCCC', 1 from dual union all
9 select 'FOO/ZZZ/YYY/DDDDDDDDDD', 1 from dual
10 )
11 select row_number() over(partition by ComPart order by DifPart) as id
12 , RefNo
13 From (select regexp_substr(RefNo, '[[:alpha:]]+$') as DifPart
14 , regexp_substr(RefNo, '([[:alpha:]]+/)+') as ComPart
15 , RefNo
16 , Id
17 from t1
18 ) q
19 ;
ID REFNO
---------- -----------------------
1 FOO/BAR/BAZ/AAAAAAAAAA
2 FOO/BAR/BAZ/BBBBBBBBBB
3 FOO/BAR/BAZ/CCCCCCCCCC
4 FOO/BAR/BAZ/DDDDDDDDDD
1 FOO/ZZZ/YYY/AAAAAAAAAA
2 FOO/ZZZ/YYY/BBBBBBBBBB
3 FOO/ZZZ/YYY/CCCCCCCCCC
4 FOO/ZZZ/YYY/DDDDDDDDDD
I think that actual updating the ID column wouldn't be a good idea. Every time you add new groups of data you would have to run the update statement again. The better way would be creating a view and you will see desired output every time you query it.
rownum can be used as an incrementing ID?
UPDATE legacy_table
SET id = ROWNUM;
This will assign unique values to all records in the table. This link contains documentation about Oracle Pseudocolumn.
You can run the following:
update <table_name> set id = rownum where descr like 'FOO/BAR/BAZ/%'
This is pretty rough and I'm not sure if your RefNo is a single value column or you just made it like that for simplicity.
select
sub.RefNo
row_number() over (order by sub.RefNo) + (select max(id) from TABLE),
from (
select FOO+'/'+BAR+'/'+BAZ+'/'+OTHER as RefNo
from TABLE
group by FOO+'/'+BAR+'/'+BAZ+'/'+OTHER
) sub
