SELECT hd.holiday_code,
hd.holiday_duration,
hdep.departure_date AS 'Start Date',
Dateadd(day, hd.holiday_duration, hdep.departure_date) AS 'End Date'
FROM holiday_details hd
INNER JOIN holiday_departure hdep
ON hd.holiday_code = hdep.holiday_code
Well i've been trying to get this specific code ^ to work, but i cant figure out the dateadd syntax. It looks right from what i have research on the googles, but i always get the error ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected
This is usually caused my some minor error on my part, but i cant find it after looking for about 20 minutes. Can anyone point out the error that is probably staring me in the face
Simply add the number of days with a numeric value. Another problem with your syntax is in 'Start Date' and 'End Date'; replace single quotes with double quotes. Change your query for something like this:
SELECT hd.holiday_code,
hd.holiday_duration,
hdep.departure_date AS "Start Date",
hdep.departure_date + hd.holiday_duration AS "End Date"
FROM holiday_details hd
INNER JOIN holiday_departure hdep
ON hd.holiday_code = hdep.holiday_code
Hope it helps.

Everything in this query works just fine until I try to add the commented out portion (noted by '--') back into the query and run it. When I attempt to add the commented out WHERE clause back into the query body, it breaks the query. I have researched and experimented with adding the commented out line in different locations and in different ways, but nothing I have tried has worked so far.
SELECT
Count(DISTINCT a.acct_id),
CASE
WHEN b.user_seg = 'MTR' AND b.user_func = 'Sales' THEN 'MTR Sales'
WHEN b.user_seg = 'JMT' AND b.user_func = 'Sales' THEN 'JMT Sales'
THEN 'Partner Account Executive'
WHEN b.user_func IN ('Account Manager','Associate Account Manager','Outreach','Executive') THEN
'Customer Success'
WHEN b.user_func IN ('Relationship Manager') THEN 'Account Executive'
END AS sales_group
FROM qrs_access_views.mxp_sf_acct a

LEFT JOIN grs_access_views.mxp_sf_user f

GROUP BY 2
When I run the query as above, I get a nice little grouped table kicked back to me by Teradata, but it is for all values for all time. (I just want to see the Q1 2020 numbers.)
When I add the commented out line back into the query I get some variation of the following error:
SELECT Failed. [3706] Syntax error: expected something between a string or a Unicode character literal and the 'LEFT' keyword.
Any help or assistance is greatly appreciated.
try this,
Instead of adding it to where clause use AND.
AND b.user_seg <> '#'
AND a.acc_crtd_date BETWEEN '2020-01-01' AND '2020-03-31'
I have a following table:
EstimatedCurrentRevenue -- Revenue column value of yesterday
EstimatedPreviousRevenue --- Revenue column value of current day
crmId
OwnerId
PercentageChange.
I am querying two snapshots of the similarly structured data in Azure data lake and trying to query the percentage change in Revenue.
Following is my query i am trying to join on OpportunityId to get the difference between the revenue values:
#opportunityRevenueData = SELECT (((opty.EstimatedCurrentRevenue - optyPrevious.EstimatedPreviousRevenue)*100)/opty.EstimatedCurrentRevenue) AS PercentageRevenueChange, optyPrevious.EstimatedPreviousRevenue,
opty.EstimatedCurrentRevenue, opty.crmId, opty.OwnerId From #opportunityCurrentData AS opty JOIN #opportunityPreviousData AS optyPrevious on opty.OpportunityId == optyPrevious.OpportunityId;
But i get the following error:
E_CSC_USER_SYNTAXERROR: syntax error. Expected one of: AS EXCEPT FROM
GROUP HAVING INTERSECT OPTION ORDER OUTER UNION UNION WHERE ';' ')'
','
at token 'From', line 40
near the ###:
This expression is having the problem i know but not sure how to fix it.
(((opty.EstimatedCurrentRevenue - optyPrevious.EstimatedPreviousRevenue)*100)/opty.EstimatedCurrentRevenue)
Please help, i am completely new to U-sql
U-SQL is case-sensitive (as per here) with all SQL reserved words in UPPER CASE. So you should capitalise the FROM and ON keywords in your statement, like this:
#opportunityRevenueData =
SELECT (((opty.EstimatedCurrentRevenue - optyPrevious.EstimatedPreviousRevenue) * 100) / opty.EstimatedCurrentRevenue) AS PercentageRevenueChange,
optyPrevious.EstimatedPreviousRevenue,
opty.EstimatedCurrentRevenue,
opty.crmId,
opty.OwnerId
FROM #opportunityCurrentData AS opty
JOIN
#opportunityPreviousData AS optyPrevious
ON opty.OpportunityId == optyPrevious.OpportunityId;
Also, if you are completely new to U-SQL, you should consider working through some tutorials to establish the basics of the language, including case-sensitivity. Start at http://usql.io/.
This same crazy sounding error message can occur for (almost?) any USQL syntax error. The answer above was clearly correct for the provided code.
However since many folks will probably get to this page from a search for 'AS EXCEPT FROM GROUP HAVING INTERSECT OPTION ORDER OUTER UNION UNION WHERE', I'd say the best advice to handle these is look closely at the snippet of your code that the error message has marked with '###'.
For example I got to this page upon getting a syntax error for a long query and it turned out I didn't have a casing issue, but just a malformed query with parens around the wrong thing. Once I looked more closely at where in the snippet the ### symbol was, the error became clear.
Please help me identify the below issue. I have a canned query below and can't get it to run without getting this error:
SELECT * FROM TABLE(fdr_dal_txns.get_txn_trans_adjst_consol
(short_string_col('1BFV')
,'POST_DT'
,short_string_col('MCH','GP3', 'OTC')
,'01-may-2017'
,'30-june-2017'
))
WHERE trd_id_num IN ('17FHKBBSSML',
'17FHVBBRJD8')
What is obvious, is that you seem to be passing strings ('01-may-2017' is a string) where you should have passed dates. I'd suggest you to use date literals, such as
SELECT *
FROM TABLE (fdr_dal_txns.get_txn_trans_adjst_consol (
short_string_col ('1BFV'),
'POST_DT',
short_string_col ('MCH', 'GP3', 'OTC'),
DATE '2017-05-01', --'01-may-2017',
DATE '2017-06-30' --'30-june-2017'
))
WHERE trd_id_num IN ('17FHKBBSSML', '17FHVBBRJD8')
and see what happens. If it still doesn't help, you should provide much more details of what you're doing (because you told us close to nothing so far).
I'm trying to write a query to go against "Signed Over Punch" using the following query:
SELECT
CASE when substring(MyField,16,1)='C' then cast(substring(MyField,9,7)+'0' AS decimal(20,2)*-1 FROM MyTable
Here's some sample data:
0000069A0000006C00000000#0000000#
From the above data, the position starts at 16 ("C") with a length of 1
And the other starts at position 9 (0) with a length of 7
But I keep getting this error:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 139
Incorrect syntax near '*'.
Desired Output:
00000063 (The C = 3)
What am I doing wrong?
Please refer to this page for reference for signed over punch:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_overpunch
You need to learn about operator precedence. This code:
[..snip..] then cast(substring(MyField,9,7)+'0' AS decimal(20,2)*-1
is executing as if it had been written
[..snip..] then cast(...) AS (decimal(20,2) * -1)
^------------------^
You're not multiplying the result of the cast, you're trying to mutiply the decimal(20,2), which is NOT a multiplicable value.
Try
then (cast(substring(MyField,9,7)+'0' AS decimal(20,2)) * -1
^------------------------------------------------^
instead.
Not sure if this will fix it or not, but you are missing a closing parenthesis. You are also missing the END statement I recommend indenting things like this to make it easier to spot these problems.
SELECT CASE
WHEN substring(MyField,16,1)='C'
THEN cast(substring(MyField,9,7)+'0' AS decimal(20,2))*-1
END
FROM MyTable
try so:
SELECT CASE when substring(MyField,16,1)='C' then cast(substring(MyField,9,7)+'0' AS decimal(20,2)) *-1 end FROM MyTable
The problems were a missing " ) " at the defore " *-1 " and a missing "end" to terminate the case when condition.
With these 2 fix the result for your example '0000069A0000006C00000000#0000000#' is -60.00.
i'm having an issue comparing a date in an access database. basically i'm parsing out a date from a text field, then trying to compare that date to another to only pull newer/older records.
so far i have everything working, but when i try to add the expression to the where clause, it's acting like it's not a date value.
here's the full SQL:
SELECT
Switch(Isdate(TRIM(LEFT(bc_testingtickets.notes, Instr(bc_testingtickets.notes, ' ')))) = false, 'NOT ASSIGNED!!!') AS [Assigned Status],
TRIM(LEFT(bc_testingtickets.notes, Instr(bc_testingtickets.notes, ' '))) AS [Last Updated Date],
bc_testingtickets.notes AS [Work Diary],
bc_testingtickets.ticket_id,
clients.client_code,
bc_profilemain.SYSTEM,
list_picklists.TEXT,
list_picklists_1.TEXT,
list_picklists_2.TEXT,
list_picklists_3.TEXT,
bc_testingtickets.createdate,
bc_testingtickets.completedate,
Datevalue(TRIM(LEFT([bc_TestingTickets].[notes], Instr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes], ' ')))) AS datetest
FROM list_picklists AS list_picklists_3
RIGHT JOIN (list_picklists AS list_picklists_2
RIGHT JOIN (list_picklists AS list_picklists_1
RIGHT JOIN (bc_profilemain
RIGHT JOIN (((bc_testingtickets
LEFT JOIN clients
ON
bc_testingtickets.broker = clients.client_id)
LEFT JOIN list_picklists
ON
bc_testingtickets.status = list_picklists.id)
LEFT JOIN bc_profile2ticketmapping
ON bc_testingtickets.ticket_id =
bc_profile2ticketmapping.ticket_id)
ON bc_profilemain.id =
bc_profile2ticketmapping.profile_id)
ON list_picklists_1.id = bc_testingtickets.purpose)
ON list_picklists_2.id = bc_profilemain.destination)
ON list_picklists_3.id = bc_profilemain.security_type
WHERE ( ( ( list_picklists.TEXT ) <> 'Passed'
AND ( list_picklists.TEXT ) <> 'Failed'
AND ( list_picklists.TEXT ) <> 'Rejected' )
AND ( ( bc_testingtickets.ticket_id ) <> 4386 ) )
GROUP BY bc_testingtickets.notes,
bc_testingtickets.ticket_id,
clients.client_code,
bc_profilemain.SYSTEM,
list_picklists.TEXT,
list_picklists_1.TEXT,
list_picklists_2.TEXT,
list_picklists_3.TEXT,
bc_testingtickets.createdate,
bc_testingtickets.completedate,
DateValue(TRIM(LEFT([bc_TestingTickets].[notes], Instr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes], ' '))))
ORDER BY Datevalue(TRIM(LEFT([bc_TestingTickets].[notes], Instr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes], ' '))));
the value i'm trying to compare against a various date is this:
DateValue(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' '))))
if i add a section to the where clause like below, i get the Data Type Mismatch error:
WHERE DateValue(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' ')))) > #4/1/2012#
i've even tried using the DateValue function around the manual date i'm testing with but i still get the mismatch error:
WHERE DateValue(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' ')))) > DateValue("4/1/2012")
any tips on how i can compare a date in this method? i can't change any fields in the database, ect, that's why i'm parsing the date in SQL and trying to manipulate it so i can run reports against it.
i've tried googling but nothing specifically talks about parsing a date from text and converting it to a date object. i think it may be a bug or the way the date is being returned from the left/trim functions. you can see i've added a column to the end of the SELECT statement called DateTest and it's obvious access is treating it like a date (when the query is run, it asks to sort by oldest to newest/newest to oldest instead of A-Z or Z-A), unlike the second column in the select.
thanks in advance for any tips/clues on how i can query based on the date.
edit:
i just tried the following statements in my where clause and still getting a mismatch:
CDate(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' ')))) > #4/1/2012#
CDate(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' ')))) >
CDate("4/1/2012") CDate(DateValue(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' '))))) > #4/1/2012#
i tried with all the various combinations i could think of regarding putting CDate inside of DateValue, outside, ect. the CDate function does look like what i should be using though. not sure why it's still throwing the error.
here's a link to a screenshot showing the results of the query http://ramonecung.com/access.jpg. there's two screenshots in one image.
You reported you get Data Type Mismatch error with this WHERE clause.
WHERE DateValue(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],
InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' ')))) > #4/1/2012#
That makes me wonder whether [bc_TestingTickets].[notes] can ever be Null, either because the table design allows Null for that field, or Nulls are prohibited by the design but are present in the query's set of candidate rows as the result of a LEFT or RIGHT JOIN.
If Nulls are present, your situation may be similar to this simple query which also triggers the data type mismatch error:
SELECT DateValue(Trim(Left(Null,InStr(Null,' '))));
If that proves to be the cause of your problem, you will have to design around it somehow. I can't offer a suggestion about how you should do that. Trying to analyze your query scared me away. :-(
It seems like you are having a problem with the type conversion. In this case, I believe that you are looking for the CDate function.
A problem might be the order of the date parts. A test in the Immediate window shows this
?cdate(#4/1/2012#)
01.04.2012
?cdate(#2012/1/4#)
04.01.2012
Write the dates backwards in the format yyyy/MM/dd and thus avoiding inadverted swapping of days and months!
DateValue("2012/1/4")
and
CDate(#2012/1/4#)
