I have a table where the IDs , Reference IDs and amounts are stored. The problem is that for the rows where reference IDs is set the amount is missing. I need to read the rows where reference_id = ID and read the amount and set the value (like it is shown in Table2).
+--+------------+------+
|ID|Reference ID|Amount|
+--+------------+------+
|1 | |300 |
+--+------------+------+
|2 |1 | |
+--+------------+------+
I want to be able to show:
Table 2
+--+------------+------+
|ID|Reference ID|Amount|
+--+------------+------+
|1 | |300 |
+--+------------+------+
|2 |1 |300 |
+--+------------+------+
Anyone has any idea whats the best way to find this missing value?
Best Regards.

I think you want a self-join:
select t1.id, t1.referenceid, coalesce(t2.amount, t1.amount) as amount
from table1 t1 left outer join
table1 t2
on t1.id = t2.referenceid;
I think you want a hierarchical query:
select id, ref_id, connect_by_root amount
from <your table>
connect by prior id = ref_id
start with ref_id is null;
SQL Fiddle.
More about the connect_by_root operator in the documentation.
This allows for multiple levels since it always goes back to the root for the amount. But that kind of assumes that the child records never have an amount themselves, or it can be ignored. You can use nvl to the the child value if it is set, but children of that will still go back to the root. You can add an amount null check to the conditions if you want to show the previous value:
select id, ref_id, connect_by_root amount as amount
from <your table>
connect by prior id = ref_id and amount is null
start with ref_id is null or amount is not null
order by id;

I have two tables and when I do a join it joins the tables together side by side not doing row based if same columns and not sure why this could be.
+--------+--------+--------+
| VALUE| DAY | Color
+--------+--------+--------+
|20 |MON | BLUE|
+--------+--------+--------+
+--------+--------+--------+
| VALUE| DAY | Color |
+--------+--------+--------+
|20 |MON | RED |
+--------+--------+--------+
I am getting the below table when join on key VALUE the above two inputs:
+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+
| VALUE| DAY | Color |DAY |Color |
+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+
|20 |MON | BLUE|Mon |Red |
+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+
I want to get something like below like row based
+--------+--------+--------+
| VALUE| DAY | Color |
+--------+--------+--------+
|20 |MON | BLUE |
|20 |MON | RED |
+--------+--------+--------+
You need to provide a sample SQL you are using, none the less you need to use union instead of join.
SELECT value, day, color FROM table1
UNION ALL
SELECT value, day, color FROM table2;
The JOIN doesn't add duplicate columns or column names. It basically selects all columns from all joined tables (unless you provide those columns that should be selected). In your case, the column names in both tables are identic. If you want to prevent this, you could of course rename the columns. If you don't want to rename them in the DB, but just want to have different names in your result set, you can use aliases, meaning something like:
SELECT t1.value AS value1, t1.day AS day1, t1.color AS color1,
t2.value AS value2, t2.day AS day2, t2.color AS color2
FROM table1 JOIN table2 ON t1.value = t2.value;
If you also want to select the entries of table1 if no identic in table2 having the same value exists or vice versa, you can use LEFT JOIN or RIGHT JOIN. Have a look here how JOIN works: explanation
The output you've shown lets assume you don't even want to join your tables at all, but just do UNION, meaning select both the entries of table1 and table2. Basically, this can be done like this:
SELECT value, day, color FROM table1
UNION
SELECT value, day, color FROM table2;
You have to check if you want to select identic entries twice (in this case, you would use UNION ALL instead of UNION). And you maybe should add a meaningful WHERE clause and/or GROUP BY conditions.
I have the following data:
cte1
===========================
m_ids |p_id |level
---------|-----------|-----
{123} |98 |1
{123} |111 |2
{432,222}|215 |1
{432,222}|215 |1
{432,222}|240 |2
{432,222}|240 |2
{432,222}|437 |3
{432,222}|275 |3
I have to perform the following operation:
Extract p_id by the following algorithm
For every row with same m_ids
In each group:
2.I. Group records by p_id
2.II. Order desc records by level
2.III. Select p_id with exact count as the m_ids length and with the biggest level
So far I fail to write this algorithm completely, but I wrote (probably wrong where I'm getting array_length) this for the last part of it:
SELECT id
FROM grouped_cte1
GROUP BY id,
level
HAVING Count(*) = array_length(grouped_cte1.m_ids, 1)
ORDER BY level DESC
LIMIT 1
where grouped_cte1 for m_ids={123} is
m_ids |p_id |level
---------|-----------|-----
{123} |98 |1
{123} |111 |2
and for m_ids={432,222} is
m_ids |p_id |level
---------|-----------|-----
{432,222}|215 |1
{432,222}|215 |1
{432,222}|240 |2
{432,222}|240 |2
{432,222}|437 |3
{432,222}|275 |3
etc.
2) Combine query from p.1 with the following. The following extracts p_id with level=1 for each m_ids:
select m_ids, p_id from cte1 where level=1 --also selecting m_ids for joining later`
which results in the following:
m_ids |p_id
---------|----
{123} |98
{432,222}|215
Desirable result:
m_ids |result_1 |result_2
---------|-----------|--------
{123} |111 |98
{432,222}|240 |215
So could anyone please help me solve the first part of algorithm and (optionally) combine it in a single query with the second part?
EDIT: So far I fail at:
1. Breaking the presented table into subtables by m_ids while iterating over it.
2. Performing computation of array_length(grouped_cte1.m_ids, 1) for corresponding rows in query.
For the first part of the query you're on the right track, but you need to change the grouping logic and then join again to the table to filter it out by highest level per m_ids for which you could use DISTINCT ON clause combined with proper sorting:
select
distinct on (t.m_ids)
t.m_ids, t.p_id, t.level
from cte1 t
join (
select
m_ids,
p_id
from cte1
group by m_ids, p_id
having count(*) = array_length(m_ids, 1)
) as g using (m_ids, p_id)
order by t.m_ids, t.level DESC;
This would give you:
m_ids | p_id | level
-----------+------+-------
{123} | 111 | 2
{432,222} | 240 | 2
And then when combined with second query (using FULL JOIN for displaying purposes, when the first query is missing such conditions) which I modified by adding distinct since there can be (and in fact is) more than one record for m_ids, p_id pair with first level it would look like:
select
coalesce(r1.m_ids, r2.m_ids) as m_ids,
r1.p_id AS result_1,
r2.p_id AS result_2
from (
select
distinct on (t.m_ids)
t.m_ids, t.p_id, t.level
from cte1 t
join (
select
m_ids,
p_id
from cte1
group by m_ids, p_id
having count(*) = array_length(m_ids, 1)
) as g using (m_ids, p_id)
order by t.m_ids, t.level DESC
) r1
full join (
select distinct m_ids, p_id
from cte1
where level = 1
) r2 on r1.m_ids = r2.m_ids
giving you result:
m_ids | result_1 | result_2
-----------+----------+----------
{123} | 111 | 98
{432,222} | 240 | 215
that looks different from what you've expected but from my understanding of the logic it is the correct one. If I misunderstood anything, please let me know.
Just for the sake of logic explanation, one point:
Why m_ids with {123} returns 111 for result_1?
for group of m_ids = {123} we have two distinct p_id values
both 98 and 111 account for the condition of equality count with the m_ids length
p_id = 111 has a higher level, thus is chosen for the result_1
I am working on an application where I want to fetch the records from multiple tables which are connected through foreign key. The query I am using is
select ue.institute, ue.marks, uf.relation, uf.name
from user_education ue, user_family uf where ue.user_id=12 and uf.user_id=12
The result of the query is
You can see the data is repeating in it. I only want a record one time. I want no repetition. I want something like this
T1 T2
id|name|fid id|descrip| fid
1 |A |1 1|DA | 1
2 |B |1 2|DB | 1
2 |B |1
Result which I want:
Result:
id|name|fid|id|descrip| fid
1 |A |1 |1|DA | 1
2 |B |1 |2|DB | 1
2 |B |1 |
The results fetched through your query
The total rows are 5
More Information
I want the rows of same user_id from both tables but you can see in T1 there are 3 rows and in T2 there are 2 rows. I do not want repetitions but also I want to fetch all the data on the basis of user_id
Table Schemas,s
T1
T2
I can't see why you would want that, but the solution could be to use the window function row_number():
SELECT ue.institute, ue.marks, uf.relation, uf.name
FROM (SELECT institute, marks, row_number() OVER ()
FROM user_education
WHERE user_id=12) ue
FULL OUTER JOIN
(SELECT relation, name, row_number() OVER ()
FROM user_family
WHERE user_id=12) uf
USING (row_number);
The result would be pretty meaningless though, as there is no ordering defined in the individual result sets.
How do I aggregate 2 select clauses without replicating data.
For instance, suppose I have tab_a that contains the data from 1 to 10:
|id|
|1 |
|2 |
|3 |
|. |
|. |
|10|
And then, I want to generate the combination of tab_b and tab_c making sure that result has 10 lines and add the column of tab_a to the result tuple
Script:
SELECT tab_b.id, tab_c.id, tab_a.id
from tab_b, tab_c, tab_a;
However this is replicating data from tab_a for each combination of tab_b and tab_c, I only want to add and would that for each combination of tab_b x tab_c I add a row of tab_a.
Example of data from tab_b
|id|
|1 |
|2 |
Example of data from tab_c
|id|
|1 |
|2 |
|3 |
|4 |
|5 |
I would like to get this output:
|tab_b.id|tab_c.id|tab_a.id|
|1 |1 |1 |
|2 |1 |2 |
|1 |2 |3 |
|... |... |... |
|2 |5 |10 |
Your question includes an unstated, invalid assumption: that the position of the values in the table (the row number) is meaningful in SQL. It's not. In SQL, rows have no order. All joins -- everything, in fact -- are based on values. To join tables, you have to supply the values the DBMS should use to determine which rows go together.
You got a hint of that with your attempted join: from tab_b, tab_c, tab_a. You didn't supply any basis for joining the rows, which in SQL means there's no restriction: all rows are "the same" for the purpose of this join. They all match, and voila, you get them all!
To do what you want, redesign your tables with at least one more column: the key that serves to identify the value. It could be a number; for example, your source data might be an array. More commonly each value has a name of some kind.
Once you have tables with keys, I think you'll find the join easier to write and understand.
Perhaps you're new to SQL, but this is generally not the way things are done with RDBMSs. Anyway, if this is what you need, PostgreSQL can deal with it nicely, using different strategies:
Window Functions:
with
tab_a (id) as (select generate_series(1,10)),
tab_b (id) as (select generate_series(1,2)),
tab_c (id) as (select generate_series(1,5))
select tab_b_id, tab_c_id, tab_a.id
from (select *, row_number() over () from tab_a) as tab_a
left join (
select tab_b.id as tab_b_id, tab_c.id as tab_c_id, row_number() over ()
from tab_b, tab_c
order by 2, 1
) tabs_b_c ON (tabs_b_c.row_number = tab_a.row_number)
order by tab_a.id;
Arrays:
with
tab_a (id) as (select generate_series(1,10)),
tab_b (id) as (select generate_series(1,2)),
tab_c (id) as (select generate_series(1,5))
select bc[s][1], bc[s][2], a[s]
from (
select array(
select id
from tab_a
order by 1
) a,
array(
select array[tab_b.id, tab_c.id]
from tab_b, tab_c
order by tab_c.id, tab_b.id
) bc
) arr
join lateral generate_subscripts(arr.a, 1) s on true
If i understand your question correctly maybe this is what you are looking for ..
SELECT bctable.b_id, bctable.c_id, atable.a_id
FROM (SELECT a_id, ROW_NUMBER () OVER () AS arnum FROM a) atable
JOIN (SELECT p.b_id, p.c_id, ROW_NUMBER () OVER () AS bcrnum
FROM ( SELECT b.b_id, c.c_id
FROM b CROSS JOIN c
ORDER BY c.c_id, b.b_id) p) bctable
ON atable.arnum = bctable.bcrnum

I have little project with SQL database which has table with some column.
Question: How create View in SQL Server, which count how many duplicate values I have in column and show that number in next column.
Here below you can see result which I want to take.
|id|name|count|
|1 |tom | |
|2 |tom | |
|3 |tom | |
| | | 3 |
|4 |leo | |
| | | 1 |
A view is simply a select statement with the words CREATE VIEW AS before the SELECT. This allows for example, 1 person (DBA) to maintain (create/alter) complex views, while another person (developer) only has the rights to select from them.
So to use #Stidgeon's answer (below):
CREATE VIEW MyCounts
AS
SELECT name, COUNT(id) AS counts
FROM table
GROUP BY name
and later you can query
Select * from MyCounts where counts > 1 order by name
or whatever you need to do. Note that order by is not allowed in views in SQL SERVER.
You can do what you want with grouping sets:
select id, name, count(*)
from t
group by grouping sets ((id, name), (name));
The group by on id, name is redundant; the value should always be "1". However, this allows the use of grouping sets, which is a convenient way to phrase the query.
Looks like you just want to count how many entries you have for each 'name', in which case you just need to do a simple COUNT query:
CREATE VIEW view_name AS
SELECT name, COUNT(id) AS counts
FROM table
GROUP BY name
The output in your case would be:
name counts
