I am trying to make exact copies of data in SQL, with new clientIDs, but keep the existing data in the old client as well. I will be inserting the data into a table with an auto incrementing integer primary key ID. I need to retain the ID's of the Old records and the new records together so I can continue using this mapping as I copy the different table data so I can maintain relationships.
At this point I have the following:
INSERT INTO [dbo].[Driver]
OUTPUT inserted.ID
inserted.Name
inserted.ClientID
SELECT Name,
1234 AS clientID
FROM dbo.Driver
I am wondering if there is a way to also select the old ID of the driver in the Output so I can then insert all of this into a holding table using the OUTPUT. So I need to end up with the following after I perform the insert into the dbo.Driver table so I can also insert these values into a temp table:
NewID
OldID
Name
ClientID
At this point I don't know of a way to pull the Original ID from the original record.
I ended up using MERGE INTO to keep track of the old ID as per the following SO post:
How to use OUTPUT to capture new and old ID?
you can try...
INSERT INTO dbo.Driver (oldID, Name, clientID)
SELECT
B.ID,
A.Name,
1234 AS clientID
FROM dbo.Driver A
LEFT JOIN dbo.Driver B ON A.Name = B.Name AND A.clientID = b.clientID
or maybe just
INSERT INTO dbo.Driver (oldID, Name, clientID)
SELECT
ID,
Name,
1234 AS clientID
FROM dbo.Drive

I have to read a txt data that contains a first load that someone do, and insert data into 2 tables. this means:
At the begining tab_data and tab_list is empty.
with the first txt record, i have to validate first if "C43R" exist on "tab_list" table, if not, i have to insert and get the new ID, and after that insert that new ID created on "tab_data" table with the rest of information.
With the second record, first i have to validate if "C43R" exist on "tab_list" table, if exist i have to get the ID, and after that insert that new ID created on "tab_data" table with the rest of information.
with the fourth txt record, i have to validate first if "M23K" exist on "tab_list" table, if not, i have to insert and get the new ID, and after that insert that new ID created on "tab_data" table with the rest of information.
And the same with all the rows from the txt file.
So how can i start with this?
Does any body have a suggestion or a solution?
Really thanks, regards
You could do this with two queries. The logic would be to first feed tab_list, then tab_data. Note that you need an ordering column in txt_data for this to make sense - I assumed id.
This inserts into tab_list, while manually generating a sequence that starts at 10.
insert into tab_list(id, tab)
select tab_id, 9 + row_number() over(order by min(id))
from txt_data
group by tab_id
With this set-up at hand, you can then insert in tab_data:
insert into tab_data (id, tab_id, data)
select
99 + row_number() over(order by d.id),
l.id,
d.data
from txt_data d
inner join tab_list l on l.tab_id = d.tab_id
I have a problem I have been working on the past several hours. It is complex (for me) and I don't expect someone to do it for me. I just need the right direction.
Problem: We had the tables (below) added to our database and I need to update them based off of data already in our DailyCosts table. The tricky part is that I need to take DailyCosts.Notes and move it to PurchaseOrder.PoNumber. Notes is where we currenlty have the PONumbers.
I started with the Insert below, testing it out on one WellID. This is Inserting records from our DailyCosts table to the new PurchaseOrder table:
Insert Into PurchaseOrder (PoNumber,WellId,JObID,ID)
Select Distinct Cast(Notes As nvarchar(20)), WellID, JOBID,
DailyCosts.DailyCostID
From DailyCosts
Where WellID = '24A-23'
It affected 1973 rows (The Notes are in Ntext)
However, I need to update the other new tables because we need to see the actual PONumbers in the application.
This next Insert is Inserting records from our DailyCost table and new PurchaseOrder table (from above) to a new table called PurchaseOrderDailyCost
Insert Into PurchaseOrderDailyCost (WellID, JobID, ReportNo, AccountCode, PurchaseOrderID,ID,DailyCostSeqNo, DailyCostID)
Select Distinct DailyCosts.WellID,DailyCosts.JobID,DailyCosts.ReportNo,DailyCosts.AccountCode,
PurchaseOrder.ID,NEWID(),0,DailyCosts.DailyCostID
From DailyCosts join
PurchaseOrder ON DailyCosts.WellID = PurchaseOrder.WellID
Where DailyCosts.WellID = '24A-23'
Unfortunately, this produces 3,892,729 records. The Notes field contains the same list of PONumbers each day. This is by design so that the people inputting the data out in the field can easily track their PO numbers. The new PONumber column that we are moving the Notes to would store just unique POnumbers. I modified the query by replacing NEWID() with DailyCostID and the Join to ON DailyCosts.DailyCostID = PurchaseOrder.ID
This affected 1973 rows the same as the first Insert.
The next Insert looks like this:
Insert Into PurchaseOrderAccount (WellID, JobID, PurchaseOrderID, ID, AccountCode)
Select PurchaseOrder.WellID, PurchaseOrder.JobID, PurchaseOrder.ID, PurchaseOrderDailyCost.DailyCostID,PurchaseOrderDailyCost.AccountCode
From PurchaseOrder Inner Join
PurchaseOrderDailyCost ON PurchaseOrder.ID = PurchaseOrderDailyCost.DailyCostID
Where PurchaseOrder.WellID = '24A-23'
The page in the application now shows the PONumbers in the correct column. Everything looks like I want it to.
Unfortunately, it slows down the application to an unacceptable level. I need to figure out how to either modify my Insert or delete duplicate records. The problem is that there are multiple foreign key constraints. I have some more information below for reference.
This shows the application after the inserts. These are all duplicate records that I am hoping to elminate
Here is some additional information I received from the vendor about the tables:
-- add a new purchase order
INSERT INTO PurchaseOrder
(WellID, JobID, ID, PONumber, Amount, Description)
VALUES ('MyWell', 'MyJob', NEWID(), 'PO444444', 500.0, 'A new Purchase Order')
-- link a purchase order with id 'A356FBF4-A19B-4466-9E5C-20C5FD0E95C3' to a DailyCost record with SeqNo 0 and AccountCode 'MyAccount'
INSERT INTO PurchaseOrderDailyCost
(WellID, JobID, ReportNo, AccountCode, DailyCostSeqNo, PurchaseOrderID, ID)
VALUES ('MyWell', 'MyJob', 4, 'MyAccount', 0, 'A356FBF4-A19B-4466-9E5C-20C5FD0E95C3', NEWID())
-- link a purchase order with id 'A356FBF4-A19B-4466-9E5C-20C5FD0E95C3' to an account code 'MyAccount'
-- (i.e. make it choosable from the DailyCost PO-column dropdown for any DailyCost record whose account code is 'MyAccount')
INSERT INTO PurchaseOrderAccount
(WellID, JobID, PurchaseOrderID, ID, AccountCode)
VALUES ('MyWell', 'MyJob', 'A356FBF4-A19B-4466-9E5C-20C5FD0E95C3', NEWID(), 'MyAccount')
-- link a purchase order with id 'A356FBF4-A19B-4466-9E5C-20C5FD0E95C3' to an AFE No. 'MyAFENo'
-- (same behavior as with the account codes above)
INSERT INTO PurchaseOrderAFE
(WellID, JobID, PurchaseOrderID, ID, AFENo)
VALUES ('MyWell', 'MyJob', 'A356FBF4-A19B-4466-9E5C-20C5FD0E95C3', NEWID(), 'MyAFENo')
So it turns out I missed some simple joining principles. The better I get the more silly mistakes I seem to make. Basically, on my very first insert, I did not include a Group By. Adding this took my INSERT from 1973 to 93. Then on my next insert, I joined DailyCosts.Notes on PurchaseOrder.PONumber since these are the only records from DailyCosts I needed. This was previously INSERT 2 on my question. From there basically, everything came together. Two steps forward an one step back. Thanks to everyone that responded to this.
I'm having a problem trying to insert some values into a table. I made an empty table with the fields
id(primary key)
association_id
resource_id
I have another table with
resource_id
association_id
and another one with
id(coresponding to the association_id in the former one)
image
I want to insert the resource_id and association_id from the first populated table, where the image field of the coresponding id from the last table is not empty.
I tried this:
INSERT IGNORE INTO `logo_associations` (``,`association_id`,`resource_id`)
SELECT
``,
`a`.`association_id`,
`a`.`resource_id`
FROM doc24_associations_have_resources a
Join doc24_associations An on a.association_id = An.id
WHERE An.image<>''
but it does not work
Try this:
INSERT INTO logo_associations (association_id, resource_id)
SELECT a.association_id
,a.resource_id
FROM doc24_associations_have_resources a
LEFT JOIN doc24_associations an ON a.association_id = an.id
WHERE an.image IS NULL -- check for null with left join
This is valid for SQL Server. You do not need to select and insert the first column as it is an identity as you mention.
My experience is based on SQL Server but the SQL may be very similar
INSERT INTO DestinationTable
(association_id, resource_id)
SELECT LNK.assocication_id,
LNK.resource_id
FROM LinkTable AS LNK
INNER JOIN ImageTable AS IMG ON IMG.id = LNK.association_id
AND IMG.image IS NOT NULL
Above I assume the following:
Tables are named DestinationTable, LinkTable, and ImageTable respectively
In DestinationTable the primary key (id) is auto generated
I have a table containing data that i need to migrate into another table with a linking table. This is a one time migration as part of an upgrade.
I have a company table that contains records relating to a company and a contact person.
I want to migrate the contact details into another table and link the new person with a linking table
Consider I have this table which is already populated
tblCompany
CompanyId
CompanyName
RegNo
ContactForename
ContactSurname
And i want to migrate the contact person data to
tblPerson
PersonID (identitycolumn)
Forename
Surname
and use the identity column resulting and insert it into the linking table
tblCompanyPerson
CompanyId
PersonId
I've tried a few different ways to approach this using cursors and output variables into a temp table but none seem right to me (or give me the solution...)
The closest i have got is to have a companyID on tblPerson and insert companyId into it and output the new personId and the companyId into a temp table. Then loop through the temp table to create the tblCompanyContact.
example
declare #companycontact TABLE (companyId int, PersonId int)
insert into tblPerson
(Forename,
Surname,
CompanyID)
output inserted.CompanyID, INSERTED.PersonID into #companycontact
select
ContactPersonForeName,
ContactPersonSurename,
CompanyID
from tblCompany c
insert into tblCompanyPerson
(CompanyID,
PersonID)
select c.companyId, PersonId from #companycontact c
Background
Im using MS SQL Server 2008 R2
The tblPerson is already populated with hundreds of thousands of
records.
There is a 'trick' using MERGE statement to achieve mapping between newly inserted and source values:
MERGE tblPerson trgt
USING tblCompany src ON 1=0
WHEN NOT MATCHED
THEN INSERT
(Forename, Surename)
VALUES (src.ContactPersonForeName, src.ContactPersonSurename)
OUTPUT src.CompanyID, INSERTED.PersonID
INTO tblCompanyPerson (CompanyId, PersonID);
That 1=0 condition is to always get everything from source. You might want to replace it or even whole source with some sub-query to actually check whatever you already have same person mapped.
EDIT: Here is some reading about using MERGE and OUTPUT
Because I don't know what SQL you are using its difficult to decide if this is correct. i also don't know if you already tried this but it's the best idea i have:
insert into tblPerson
(Forename, Surename)
Select ContactForename, ContactPersonSurename
from tblCompany
insert into tblCompanyPerson
(CompanyID, PersonID)
select CompanyId, PersonID
from tblPerson, tblCompany
where ContactForename = Forename and ContactPersonSurename = Surename

I have a status table, and another table containing additional data. My object IDs are the PK in the status table, so I need to insert those into the additional data table for each new row.
I need to insert a new row into my statusTable for each new listing, containing just constants.
declare #temp TABLE(listingID int)
insert into statusTable(status, date)
output Inserted.listingID into #temp
select 1, getdate()
from anotherImportedTable
This gets me enough new listing IDs to use.
I now need to insert the actual listing data into another table, and map each row to one of those listingIDs -
insert into listingExtraData(listingID, data)
select t.listingID, a.data
from #temp t, anotherImportedTable a
Now this obviously doesn't work, because otherDataTable and the IDs in #temp are unrelated... so I get far too many rows inserted.
How can I insert each row from anotherImportedTable into listingExtraData along with a unique newly created listingID? could I possibly trigger some more sql at the point I do the output in the first block of sql?
edit: thanks for the input so far, here's what the tables look like:
anotherImportedTable:
data
statusTable:
listingID (pk), status, date
listingExtraData:
data, listingID
You see that I only want to create one entry into statusTable per row in anotherImportedTable, then put one listingID with a row from anotherImportedTable into listingExtraData... I'm thinking that I might have to resort to a cursor perhaps?
Ok, here's how you can do it (if I'm right about what you actually want to do):
insert into listingExtraData(listingID, data)
select q1.listingID, q2.data
from
(select ListingID, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (order by ListingID) as rn from #temp t) as q1
inner join (select data, ROW_NUMBER() over (order by data) as rn from anotherImportedTable) q2 on q1.rn = q2.rn
In case you matching logic differs you will need to change sorting of anotherImportedTable. In case your match order can not be achieved by ordering anotherImportTable [in one way or another] then you're out of luck.
