I need to get one column from one table and put it in a temp table but also add another column to the temp table that would be the row number but I am not sure how to do that.
The basic problem I have is I have a table of communities and a table of sales and I need to go through the sales table and count how many were in each community. Then if a community has more than 5 then to increment a variable that signifies how many models made quota. My thought was to have a temp table that has each community in it alone with a row number and loop through that based on that row number through the sales table to make sure that I check each sale with each community.
Thanks for the input!
You can use IDENTITY on a #temp table.
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#TableOne') IS NOT NULL
begin
drop table #TableOne
end
CREATE TABLE #TableOne
(
SurrogateKeyIDENTITY int not null IDENTITY (1,1) ,
NameOf varchar(12)
)
Insert into #TableOne (NameOf)
Select Alpha From
(
Select 'A' as Alpha UNION ALL Select 'Y' as Alpha UNION ALL Select 'B' as Alpha UNION ALL Select 'Z' as Alpha UNION ALL Select 'C' as Alpha
) as derived1
Order by Alpha
select * from #TableOne
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#TableOne') IS NOT NULL
begin
drop table #TableOne
end
Output:
SurrogateKeyIDENTITY NameOf
1 A
2 B
3 C
4 Y
5 Z
You can use this :
CREATE TABLE #TableOne
(
SurrogateKeyIDENTITY int IDENTITY (1,1) ,
NameOf varchar(12)
)

I have an table where i would like to query the following:
The data comes in batches . This data is combined with an id.
This ID only gets send ones when the new batch comes in. After that the ID only changes when there is a new batch . In the mean time the value stays null
What i need to do is if new data comes in and it has the same id as the previous batch i have to continue the insert with null in the id field instead of pushing a new row with the same id value.
Beneath is a simplistic view of the table
ID Values
1 10
null 20
null 20
null 20
null 20
2 20
null 20
null 20
null 20
null 20
1 20
null 20
If you could help me point in a directions that would help me a lot.
Maybe to clearify the id value is a set of tags. So there are some definied tags(100 or more) and when a new batch comes the batch gets a tag with it. And if that tag is the same as the previous the null has to continue instead of inserting the same tag
You'll need to add an identity field (or a timestamp) in order to be able to query the latest ID.
ALTER TABLE MyTable ADD MyIdent INT IDENTITY(1, 1) NOT NULL
Then on your insert (if your Id value is NULL) you can call
INSERT INTO MyTable (Id, Values)
SELECT TOP 1 Id, #ValuesVariable
FROM MyTable
WHERE Id IS NOT NULL
ORDER BY MyIdent DESC
This below Sp may helps to inert data try this
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#Temp')IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE #Temp
CREATE TABLE #Temp (ID INT,[Values] INT)
CREATE PROCEDURE usp_Insert
(
#Id INT,
#Values INT
)
AS
BEGIN
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM #Temp WHERE ID = #ID)
BEGIN
INSERT INTO #Temp(ID,[Values])
SELECT #Id,#Values
END
ELSE
INSERT INTO #Temp(ID,[Values])
SELECT NULL,#Values
END
EXEC usp_Insert 2,12
SELECT * FROM #Temp
I have table of transaction which contains a column transactionId that has values like |H000021|B1|.
I need to make a join with table Category which has a column CategoryID with values like H000021.
I cannot apply join unless data is same.
So I want to split or remove the unnecessary data contained in TransctionId so that I can join both tables.
Kindly help me with the solutions.
Create a computed column with the code only.
Initial scenario:
create table Transactions
(
transactionId varchar(12) primary key,
whatever varchar(100)
)
create table Category
(
transactionId varchar(7) primary key,
name varchar(100)
)
insert into Transactions
select'|H000021|B1|', 'Anything'
insert into Category
select 'H000021', 'A category'
Add computed column:
alter table Transactions add transactionId_code as substring(transactionid, 2, 7) persisted
Join using the new computed column:
select *
from Transactions t
inner join Category c on t.transactionId_code = c.transactionId
Get a straighforward query plan:
You should fix your data so the columns are the same. But sometimes we are stuck with other people's bad design decisions. In particular, the transaction data should contain a column for the category -- even if the category is part of the id.
In any case:
select . . .
from transaction t join
category c
on transactionid like '|' + categoryid + |%';
Or if the category id is always 7 characters:
select . . .
from transaction t join
category c
on categoryid = substring(transactionid, 2, 7)
You can do this using query :
CREATE TABLE #MyTable
(PrimaryKey int PRIMARY KEY,
KeyTransacFull varchar(50)
);
GO
CREATE TABLE #MyTransaction
(PrimaryKey int PRIMARY KEY,
KeyTransac varchar(50)
);
GO
INSERT INTO #MyTable
SELECT 1, '|H000021|B1|'
INSERT INTO #MyTable
SELECT 2, '|H000021|B1|'
INSERT INTO #MyTransaction
SELECT 1, 'H000021'
SELECT * FROM #MyTable
SELECT * FROM #MyTransaction
SELECT *
FROM #MyTable
JOIN #MyTransaction ON KeyTransacFull LIKE '|'+KeyTransac+'|%'
DROP TABLE #MyTable
DROP TABLE #MyTransaction
I have table A and table B. Relation between them done using intermediate table AB, which stores ID's from both.
Table A
ID integer
Value varchar(MAX)
Table B
ID integer
Value varchar(MAX)
Table AB
AID integer
BID integer
I can select needed data with JOIN's, but how to write data into AB?
I mean if I'll get AID and list of integer's (done as custom type Array_Integer table(ID integer)) , which is BID, how to update relations in AB with a received list of BID's?
I can do a lot of dirty and manually work, but I'm looking for a more true way.
UPD: check schema on pastebin — http://pastebin.com/BeKm2h3F
If I understand you correct, this query should be what you need.
INSERT INTO AB
SELECT * FROM
(
-- Here you write your AID value instead of 1
SELECT 1 AS AID
) AS a1
CROSS JOIN
(
-- Query that returns list if id's from table B
SELECT ID AS BID FROM B WHERE ID < 5
)
You can update the TableAB as follows :
declare #Aid int
declare #Bid int
insert into TableA(value)
select 'abcd'
set #Aid = ident_currect('TableA')
insert into TableB(value)
select 'xyz'
set #Bid = ident_currect('TableB')
insert into TableAB -- This will update your junction table
select #Aid,#Bid
I am assuming that your tableA and TableB have identity columns. You can also use scope_identity() instead of ident_currect()
I have 2 tables, and im trying to insert data from one to another and keepeng the mappings between ids.
I found here someone with the same problem, but the solution isnt good for me.
here is the example:
the two tables
CREATE TABLE [source] (i INT identity PRIMARY KEY, some_value VARCHAR(30))
CREATE TABLE [destination] (i INT identity PRIMARY KEY, some_value VARCHAR(30))
CREATE TABLE [mapping] (i_old INT, i_new INT) -- i_old is source.i value, i_new is the inserted destination.i column
some sample data
INSERT INTO [source] (some_value)
SELECT TOP 30 name
FROM sysobjects
INSERT INTO [destination] (some_value)
SELECT TOP 30 name
FROM sysobjects
Here, i want to transfer everything from source into destination, but be able to keep a mapping on the two tables:
I try to use OUTPUT clause, but i cannot refer to columns outside of the ones being inserted:
INSERT INTO [destination] (some_value)
--OUTPUT inserted.i, s.i INTO [mapping] (i_new, i_old) --s.i doesn't work
SELECT some_value
FROM [source] s
Anyone has a solution for this?
Not sure is it write way but it works :D
MERGE [#destination] AS D
USING [#source] AS s
ON s.i <> s.i
WHEN NOT MATCHED BY TARGET
THEN
INSERT (some_value) VALUES (some_value)
OUTPUT inserted.i, s.i INTO [#mapping] (i_new, i_old);
try this sql below if you don't have permission to modify the tables:
The idea is using a temp table to be a bridge between destination table and the mapping table.
SQL Query:
declare #source table (i INT identity PRIMARY KEY, some_value VARCHAR(30))
declare #destination table (i INT identity PRIMARY KEY, some_value VARCHAR(30))
declare #mapping table (i_old INT, i_new INT) -- i_old is source.i value, i_new is the inserted destination.i column
declare #tempSource table
(
id_source INT identity , source_value VARCHAR(30)
,Id_New int,source_new VARCHAR(30)
)
insert into #source
output inserted.i, inserted.some_value into #tempSource(id_source,source_value)
SELECT TOP 10 name
FROM sysobjects
--select * from #tempsource
insert into #destination
OUTPUT inserted.i, inserted.some_value INTO #tempSource (Id_New,source_new)
select source_value from #tempSource
insert into #mapping
select Id_source, Id_New from
(
select a.id_source, a.source_value
from
#tempSource a
where id_source is not null and source_value is not null
) aa
inner join
(
select a.Id_New, a.source_new
from
#tempSource a
where Id_New is not null and source_new is not null
) bb on aa.source_value = bb.source_new
select * from #mapping
The mapping table result:
i_old i_new
----------- -----------
1 1
2 2
3 3
4 4
5 5
6 6
7 7
8 8
9 9
10 10
Let us say I have a table (everything is very much simplified):
create table OriginalData (
ItemName NVARCHAR(255) not null
)
And I would like to insert its data (set based!) into two tables which model inheritance
create table Statements (
Id int IDENTITY NOT NULL,
ProposalDateTime DATETIME null
)
create table Items (
StatementFk INT not null,
ItemName NVARCHAR(255) null,
primary key (StatementFk)
)
Statements is the parent table and Items is the child table. I have no problem doing this with one row which involves the use of IDENT_CURRENT but I have no idea how to do this set based (i.e. enter several rows into both tables).
Thanks.
Best wishes,
Christian
Another possible method that would prevent the use of cursors, which is generally not a best practice for SQL, is listed below... It uses the OUTPUT clause to capture the insert results from the one table to be used in the insert to the second table.
Note this example makes one assumption in the fact that I moved your IDENTITY column to the Items table. I believe that would be acceptable, atleast based on your original table layout, since the primary key of that table is the StatementFK column.
Note this example code was tested via SQL 2005...
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#OriginalData') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE #OriginalData
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#Statements') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE #Statements
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#Items') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE #Items
create table #OriginalData
( ItemName NVARCHAR(255) not null )
create table #Statements
( Id int NOT NULL,
ProposalDateTime DATETIME null )
create table #Items
( StatementFk INT IDENTITY not null,
ItemName NVARCHAR(255) null,
primary key (StatementFk) )
INSERT INTO #OriginalData
( ItemName )
SELECT 'Shirt'
UNION ALL SELECT 'Pants'
UNION ALL SELECT 'Socks'
UNION ALL SELECT 'Shoes'
UNION ALL SELECT 'Hat'
DECLARE #myTableVar table
( StatementFk int,
ItemName nvarchar(255) )
INSERT INTO #Items
( ItemName )
OUTPUT INSERTED.StatementFk, INSERTED.ItemName
INTO #myTableVar
SELECT ItemName
FROM #OriginalData
INSERT INTO #Statements
( ID, ProposalDateTime )
SELECT
StatementFK, getdate()
FROM #myTableVar
You will need to write an ETL process to do this. You may want to look into SSIS.
This also can be done with t-sql and possibly temp tables. You may need to store unique key from OriginalTable in Statements table and then when you are inserting Items - join OriginalTable with Statements on that unique key to get the ID.
I don't think you could do it in one chunk but you could certainly do it with a cursor loop
DECLARE #bla char(10)
DECLARE #ID int
DECLARE c1 CURSOR
FOR
SELECT bla
FROM OriginalData
OPEN c1
FETCH NEXT FROM c1
INTO #bla
WHILE ##FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
INSERT INTO Statements(ProposalDateTime) VALUES('SomeDate')
SET #ID = SCOPE_IDENTITY()
INSERT INTO Items(StateMentFK,ItemNAme) VALUES(#ID,#bla)
FETCH NEXT FROM c1
INTO #bla
END
CLOSE c1
DEALLOCATE c1
