SQL query to choose row before two consecutive true values - sql

Here is my table.
Price Volume
------------------
60 0
70 10
80 0
90 0
100 40
200 40
300 40
400 0
500 50
600 60
It is ordered by Price.
I need to choose all rows before two consecutive zeros in Volume column. So the result should look like
Price Volume
------------------
100 40
200 40
300 40
400 0
500 50
600 60
I really do not know where to start with this type of query. I could only think go pulling data into C# and the loading back into table.
Regards,

You didn't state your DBMS so this is ANSI SQL:
with flagged as (
select price,
volume,
case
when volume + lag(volume) over (order by price) = 0 then 1
else 0
end as rn
from prices
), counted as (
select price,
volume,
sum(rn) over (order by price) as cn,
rn
from flagged
)
select price, volume
from counted
where cn > 0 and rn = 0
order by price
Here is a SQLFiddle example: http://sqlfiddle.com/#!6/b2434/4

Standard SQL cannot handle this. You need a cursor to cycle through the ordered rows and decide what to output, which requires the use of some variables.
Depending on the RDBMS you are using, you could write a stored procedure that reads the rows and filters them. Otherwise you must have the application do the filtering.

In sql server 2012+ you can do this with a couple LAG statements.
Lag for the 2 previous values and where when they are both 0.

How to calculate a percentage on different values from same column with different criteria

I'm trying to write a query in SSRS (using SQL) to calculate an income statement percentage of sales for each month (the year is a parameter chosen by the user at runtime). However, the table I have to use for the data lists all of the years, months, accounts, dollars, etc together and looks like this:
ACCT_YEAR
ACCT_PERIOD
ACCOUNT_ID
CREDIT_AMOUNT
2021
1
4000
20000
2021
2
4000
25000
2021
1
5000
5000
2021
2
5000
7500
2021
1
6000
4000
2021
2
6000
8000
etc, etc (ACCOUNT_ID =4000 happens to be the sales account)
As an example,
I need to calculate
CREDIT_AMOUNT when ACCT_YEAR = 2021, ACCT_PERIOD=1, and ACCOUNT_ID=5000
/
CREDIT_AMOUNT when ACCT_YEAR = 2021, ACCT_PERIOD=1, and ACCOUNT_ID=4000
* 100
I would then do that for each ACCT_PERIOD in the ACCT_YEAR.
Hope that makes sense...What I want would look like this:
ACCT_YEAR
ACCT_PERIOD
ACCOUNT_ID
PERCENTAGE
2021
1
5000
0.25
2021
2
5000
0.30
2021
1
6000
0.20
2021
2
6000
0.32
I'm trying to create a graph that shows the percentage of sales of roughly 10 different accounts (I know their specific account_ID's and will filter by those ID's) and use the line chart widget to show the trends by month.
I've tried CASE scenarios, OVER scenarios, and nested subqueries. I feel like this should be simple but I'm being hardheaded and not seeing the obvious solution.
Any suggestions?
Thank you!
One important behaviour to note is that window functions are applied after the where clause.
Because you need the window functions to be applied before any where clause (which would filter account 4000 out), they need to be used in one scope, and the where clause in another scope.
WITH
perc AS
(
SELECT
*,
credit_amount * 100.0
/
SUM(
CASE WHEN account_id = 4000 THEN credit_amount END
)
OVER (
PARTITION BY acct_year, accr_period
)
AS credit_percentage
FROM
your_table
)
SELECT
*
FROM
perc
WHERE
account_id IN (5000,6000)
You just to use a matrix with a parent column group for ACCT_YEAR and a child column group for ACCT_PERIOD. Then you can use your calculation. If you format the textbox for percentage, you won't need to multiply it by 100.
Textbox value: =IIF(ACCOUNT_ID=4000, Sum(CREDIT_AMOUNT), 0) = 0, 0, IIF(ACCOUNT_ID=5000, Sum(CREDIT_AMOUNT), 0) / IIF(ACCOUNT_ID=4000, Sum(CREDIT_AMOUNT), 0)

sharing cash with priority to creditors in sql

I have a table in sql 2014 with name "tblPaymentPlan" like this:
Creditors PlanToPay َAmount
----------------------------------
A 2017-01-20 2000
A 2017-02-20 1500
A 2017-03-20 3000
B 2017-01-25 3000
B 2017-02-25 1000
and also another table with name "tblPaid" like following:
Creditors Paid َ
-----------------
A 4500
B 3500
and the result that I expect:
Creditors PlanToPay َRemain
----------------------------------
A 2017-01-20 0
A 2017-02-20 0
A 2017-03-20 2000
B 2017-01-25 0
B 2017-02-25 500
I have no idea for doing this job at all! Would you please to help me to perform this job. Please informed that I have a lot of records in my tables.
I need this query for budget planing. (We can use numbers for defining priority instead of dates)
What you want is a running total of what is owing, from that you can subtract what has been paid.
SELECT Creditors, PlanToPay, IIF(ABS(Remain)!=Remain,0,IIF(Remain<Amount,Remain,Amount)) as Remain
FROM (SELECT pp.Creditors, pp.PlanToPay, pp.Amount,
SUM(pp.Amount) OVER(PARTITION BY pp.Creditors ORDER BY pp.PlanToPay ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND CURRENT ROW)-tp.paid AS Remain
FROM tblPaymentPlan pp
JOIN (SELECT creditors, sum(paid) as paid from tblpaid group by creditors) tp
ON pp.creditors = tp.creditors) ss
ORDER By Creditors, PlanToPay
SQLFiddle
In the windowing function (SUM OVER) the PARTITION separates the creditors, the ORDER determines how the rows are arranged (by date), and the ROWS clause tells it to use all the rows in the partition before this row and include this row in the running total. We then subtract the sum of everything paid to that creditor from this running total.
This of course gives us alot of negative numbers, so we do it in a subquery. The main query checks if the absolute value of that remaining is equal to the value, true if it's positive, false if it is not, and returns the value remaining if true, or 0 if not.
UPDATE - added handling for multiple rows with value still owing
You can subtract the running total from amount in paid table and if it is less than 0, set remain to 0 else the difference of amount from the running total.
select pp.creditors,pp.plantopay,
case when sum(pp.amount) over(partition by pp.creditors order by pp.plantopay)-coalesce(pd.paid,0) <= 0 then 0
else sum(pp.amount) over(partition by pp.creditors order by pp.plantopay)-coalesce(pd.paid,0) end as remain
from tblpaymentplan pp
left join tblPaid pd on pp.creditors=pd.creditors

Replicate the effect of the first. function in SAS within SQL

What is the simplest way (in terms of easily understandable code, not code length or efficiency) to replicate the effect of the first. function in SAS?
Select sum(amount), order_id,
From tablename
Group By order_id
/* Pseudo code below */
Having first.amount = $100
Order by date
What I'm trying to do above is to get the total amount for each order but exclude all order_id for which the first transaction date has an amount > 100. If there are multiple amounts for the same date, then only 1 needs to fit the criteria for the whole order to be removed.
For example, the following orders should be removed
Order_ID Date Amount
1 1/1 45
1 1/1 100
1 1/2 32
2 1/1 100
The following orders should NOT be removed
Order_ID Date Amount
3 1/1 99.99
3 1/2 100
4 1/1 9
4 1/2 100
I see. You are referring to the first variables in a by-processing loop. Your question is pretty unclear.
This is a bit complicated, because the "first" appears to be needed after the aggregation, but it only applies to the first date. I'm not sure what this code would look like in SAS, but the following should have the same effect SQL:
select order_id, sum(amount)
from t
where (select top 1 sum(amount) as first_amount
from t
where t2.order_id = t.order_id
group by date
order by date
) < 100
group by order_id;

sql DB calculation moving summary‏‏‏‏‏

I would like to calculate moving summary‏‏‏‏‏:
Total amount:100
first receipt: 20
second receipt: 10
the first row in calculation column is a difference between total amount and the first receipt: 100-20=80
the second row in calculation column is a difference between the first calculated_row and the first receip: 80-10=70
The presentation is supposed to present receipt_amount, balance:
receipt_amount | balance
20 | 80
10 | 70
I'll be glad to use your help
Thanks :-)
You didn't really give us much information about your tables and how they are structured.
I'm assuming that there is an orders table that contains the total_amount and a receipt_table that contains each receipt (as a positive value):
As you also didn't specify your DBMS, this is ANSI SQL:
select sum(amount) over (order by receipt_nr) as running_sum
from (
select total_amount as amount
from orders
where order_no = 1
union all
select -1 * receipt_amount
from the_receipt_table
where order_no =
) t
First of all- thanks for your response.
I work with Cache DB which can be used both SQL and ORACLE syntax.
Basically, the data is locaed in two different tables, but I have them in one join query.
Couple of rows with different receipt amounts and each row (receipt) has the same total amount.
Foe example:
Receipt_no Receipt_amount Total_amount Balance
1 20 100 80
1 10 100 70
1 30 100 40
2 20 50 30
2 10 50 20
So, the calculation is supposed to be in a way that in the first receipt the difference calculation is made from the total_amount and all other receipts (in the same receipt_no) are being reduced from the balance
Thanks!

SQL complex view for virtually showing data

I have a table with the following table.
----------------------------------
Hour Location Stock
----------------------------------
6 2000 20
9 2000 24
----------------------------------
So this shows stock against some of the hours in which there is a change in the quantity.
Now my requirement is to create a view on this table which will virtually show the data (if stock is not htere for a particular hour). So the data that should be shown is
----------------------------------
Hour Location Stock
----------------------------------
6 2000 20
7 2000 20 -- same as hour 6 stock
8 2000 20 -- same as hour 6 stock
9 2000 24
----------------------------------
That means even if the data is not there for some particular hour then we should show the last hour's stock which is having stock. And i have another table with all the available hours from 1-23 in a column.
I have tried partition over by method as given below. But i think i am missing some thing around this to get my requirement done.
SELECT
HOUR_NUMBER,
CASE WHEN TOTAL_STOCK IS NULL
THEN SUM(TOTAL_STOCK)
OVER (
PARTITION BY LOCATION
ORDER BY CURRENT_HOUR ROWS 1 PRECEDING
)
ELSE
TOTAL_STOCK
END AS FULL_STOCK
FROM
(
SELECT HOUR_NUMBER AS HOUR_NUMBER
FROM HOURS_TABLE -- REFEERENCE TABLE WITH HOURS FROM 1-23
GROUP BY 1
) HOURS_REF
LEFT OUTER JOIN
(
SEL CURRENT_HOUR AS CURRENT_HOUR
, STOCK AS TOTAL_STOCK
,LOCATION AS LOCATION
FROM STOCK_TABLE
WHERE STOCK<>0
) STOCKS
ON HOURS_REF.HOUR_NUMBER = STOCKS.CURRENT_HOUR
This query is giving all the hours with stock as null for the hours without data.
We are looking at ANSI sql solution so that it can be used on databases like Teradata.
I am thinking that i am using partition over by wrongly or is there any other way. We tried with CASE WHEN but that needs some kind of looping to check back for an hour with some stock.
I've run into similar problems before. It's often simpler to make sure that the data you need somehow gets into the database in the first place. You might be able to automate it with a stored procedure that runs periodically.
Having said that, did you consider trying COALESCE() with a scalar subquery? (Or whatever similar function your dbms supports.) I'd try it myself and post the SQL, but I'm leaving for work in two minutes.
Haven't tried, but along the lines of what Mike said:
SELECT a.hour
, COALESCE( a.stock
, ( select b.stock
from tbl.b
where b.hour=a.hour-1 )
) "stock"
FROM tbl a
Note: this will impact performance greatly.
Thanks for your responses. I have tried out RECURSIVE VIEW for the above requirement and is giving correct results (I am fearing about the CPU usage for big tables as it is recursive). So here is stock table
----------------------------------
Hour Location Stock
----------------------------------
6 2000 20
9 2000 24
----------------------------------
Then we will have a view on this table which will give all 12 hours data using Left outer join.
----------------------------------
Hour Location Stock
----------------------------------
6 2000 20
7 2000 NULL
8 2000 NULL
9 2000 24
----------------------------------
Then we will have a recursive view which joins the table recursively with the same view to get the Stock of each hour moved one hour up and appended with level of data coming incremented.
REPLACE RECURSIVE VIEW HOURLY_STOCK_VIEW
(HOUR_NUMBER,LOCATION, STOCK, LVL)
AS
(
SELECT
HOUR_NUMBER,
LOCATION,
STOCK,
1 AS LVL
FROM STOCK_VIEW_WITH_LEFT_OUTER_JOIN
UNION ALL
SELECT
STK.HOUR_NUMBER,
THE_VIEW.LOCATION,
THE_VIEW.STOCK,
LVL+1 AS LVL
FROM STOCK_VIEW_WITH_LEFT_OUTER_JOIN STK
JOIN
HOURLY_STOCK_VIEW THE_VIEW
ON THE_VIEW.HOUR_NUMBER = STK.HOUR_NUMBER -1
WHERE LVL <=12
)
;
You can observe that first we select from the Left outer joined view then we union it with the left outer join view joined on the same view which we are creating and giving it its level at which data is coming.
Then we select the data from this view with the minimum level.
SEL * FROM HOURLY_STOCK_VIEW
WHERE
(
HOUR_NUMBER,
LVL
)
IN
(
SEL
HOUR_NUMBER,
MIN(LVL)
FROM HOURLY_STOCK_VIEW
WHERE STOCK IS NOT NULL
GROUP BY 1
)
;
This is working fine and giving the result as
----------------------------------
Hour Location Stock
----------------------------------
6 2000 20
7 2000 20 -- same as hour 6 stock
8 2000 20 -- same as hour 6 stock
9 2000 24
10 2000 24
11 2000 24
12 2000 24
----------------------------------
I know this is going to take huge CPU for large tables to get the recursion work ( we are limiting the recursion to only 12 levels as 12 hours data is needed to stop it go into infinite loop). But I thought some body can use this for some kind of Hierarchy building. I will look for some more responses from you guys on any other approaches available. Thanks. You can have a look at Recursive views in the below link for teradata.

The most common uses of view is, the removal of complexity.
For example:
CREATE VIEW FEESTUDENT
AS
SELECT S.NAME,F.AMOUNT FROM STUDENT AS S
INNER JOIN FEEPAID AS F ON S.TKNO=F.TKNO
Now do a SELECT:
SELECT * FROM FEESTUDENT
