Can anyone please tell me how to write a delete statement for the following query:
SELECT a.UserID, b.UserEmailAddress
FROM tblUserProgramme AS a LEFT OUTER JOIN
tblUser AS b ON b.UserID = a.UserID LEFT OUTER JOIN
tblWorkGroup AS c ON c.WorkGroupID = b.WorkGroupID
WHERE(a.ProgrammeID = 59) AND (a.UserID NOT IN
(SELECT UserID FROM tblUser AS a WHERE (WorkGroupID IN
(SELECT WorkGroupID FROM tblWorkGroup WHERE
(WorkGroupName LIKE '%Insight%') OR (WorkGroupName LIKE '%Other%')))))
AND (b.UserEmailAddress NOT IN
(SELECT email FROM tmpUsers))
ORDER BY b.UserEmailAddress
SERVER is SQL Server 2005
Query would be
Delete from
(
SELECT a.UserID, b.UserEmailAddress
FROM tblUserProgramme AS a LEFT OUTER JOIN
tblUser AS b ON b.UserID = a.UserID LEFT OUTER JOIN
tblWorkGroup AS c ON c.WorkGroupID = b.WorkGroupID
WHERE(a.ProgrammeID = 59) AND (a.UserID NOT IN
(SELECT UserID FROM tblUser AS a WHERE (WorkGroupID IN
(SELECT WorkGroupID FROM tblWorkGroup WHERE (WorkGroupName LIKE
'%Insight%') OR (WorkGroupName LIKE '%Other%'))))) AND (b.UserEmailAddress NOT IN
(SELECT email FROM tmpUsers))
ORDER BY b.UserEmailAddress
) a
Syntax is DB specific..
For most of tha databases this should work , if you want to delete from tblUserProgramme
DELETE A
FROM tblUserProgramme AS a
.....
In general, in SQL Server, you can delete all records which match a given SQL query as follows, provided your SELECT only returns columns from a single table:
DELETE x
FROM
(
-- Any query which returns data from a single table, that you wish to delete
) x;
Or, using a CTE:
;WITH x as
(
-- Any query which returns data from a single table, that you wish to delete
)
DELETE x;
Thank you all for your quick answers:) There were a quite a few answers right, but had to pick the first one:)
As Joe G Joseph has mentioned,
this is what i did
DELETE a
from dbo.tblUserProgramme a
LEFT OUTER JOIN tblUser b ON b.UserID = a.UserID
LEFT OUTER JOIN tblWorkGroup c ON c.WorkGroupID = b.WorkGroupID
where a.ProgrammeID = 59 AND
a.UserID NOT IN (SELECT UserID FROM tblUser a WHERE a.WorkGroupID IN
(SELECT WorkGroupID FROM tblWorkGroup
WHERE WorkGroupName like '%Insight%' OR WorkGroupName like '%Other%'))
AND b.UserEmailAddress NOT IN(SELECT email FROM tmpUsers)

I am working with sql server through SSMS right now. How can i choose all people with multiple(>2)vacancies?
I am trying something like that, but i dont understand how to make part with "more than 2 vacancies"?
SELECT dbo.applicants.FirstName, dbo.vacancy.Name
FROM dbo.applicants INNER JOIN
dbo.VacancyApplicant ON dbo.applicants.id = dbo.VacancyApplicant.ApplicantId INNER JOIN
dbo.vacancy ON dbo.VacancyApplicant.VacancyId = dbo.vacancy.id WHERE dbo.vacancy.Name='third vacancy'
SELECT dbo.applicants.FirstName, dbo.vacancy.Name
FROM dbo.applicants A INNER JOIN
dbo.VacancyApplicant V ON A.id = V.ApplicantId
WHERE EXIST(
SELECT 1
FROM dbo.applicants INNER JOIN
dbo.VacancyApplicant ON dbo.applicants.id =
dbo.VacancyApplicant.ApplicantId INNER JOIN
dbo.vacancy ON dbo.VacancyApplicant.VacancyId = dbo.vacancy.id
WHERE A.id=dbo.applicants.id
GROUP BY dbo.applicants.id,dbo.vacancy.id
HAVING COUNT(1)>2
)
Group By and Having are you basic answer. Below is a simple solution, might not be ideal, but can give you the idea.
I am finding target "applicants" ids in subquery, that uses GROUP BY and HAVING then outer query joins to that to output FirstName and LastName of applicant
SELECT dbo.applicants.FirstName, dbo.applicants.LastName FROM
dbo.applicants a INNER JOIN
(
SELECT dbo.applicants.id
FROM dbo.applicants INNER JOIN
dbo.VacancyApplicant ON dbo.applicants.id = dbo.VacancyApplicant.ApplicantId INNER JOIN
dbo.vacancy ON dbo.VacancyApplicant.VacancyId = dbo.vacancy.id AND dbo.vacancy.Name='third vacancy'
GROUP BY dbo.applications.id
HAVING COUNT(dbo.vacancy.id) > 2
) targetIds ON a.id = targetIds.id
"more than 2 vacancies"?
Your question only mentions vacancies but your query is filtering for a particular name. I assume you really want more than two of that name.
If I understand correctly, you want aggregation:
SELECT a.FirstName, a.Name
FROM dbo.applicants a INNER JOIN
dbo.VacancyApplicant va
ON a.id = va.ApplicantId INNER JOIN
dbo.vacancy v
ON va.VacancyId = v.id
WHERE v.Name = 'third vacancy'
GROUP BY a.FirstName, v.Name
HAVING COUNT(*) > 2;
Note the use of table aliases. They make the query easier to write and to read.
WITH TempCTE AS (
SELECT DISTINCT ap.FirstName
,vc.Name
,COUNT (va.VacancyId) OVER (PARTITION BY ap.id) AS NoOfVacancies
FROM dbo.applicants ap
JOIN dbo.VacancyApplicant va
ON ap.id = va.ApplicantId
JOIN dbo.vacancy vc
ON va.VacancyId = vc.id
)
SELECT FirstName,[Name], NoOfVacancies FROM TempCTE
WHERE NoOfVacancies > 2
This query down below will tell me how many non-active users there's been during a timeframe.
USE Database
SELECT u.*
FROM [dbo].[tbl_Users] u
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM [dbo].[CaseTable] ct
WHERE c.tUserID = u.UserID AND ct.CreationDate between '2019-01-01' and '2019-12-31'
);
And this query below will tell me the users that have the specific role id I'm looking for.
Use Database;
SELECT UserID, DepartmentID, RoleId
FROM tbl_UsersBelongsTo
WHERE RoleID=6
How can I integrate both queries and essentially get what I'm looking for? I presume it's with a JOIN clause but how??
I think you just want join or additional exists:
SELECT u.*
FROM [dbo].[tbl_Users] u
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM [dbo].[CaseTable] ct
WHERE ct.tUserID = u.UserID AND
ct.CreationDate between '2019-01-01' and '2019-12-31'
) AND
EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM tbl_UsersBelongsTo ubt
WHERE ubt.RoleID = 6 AND ubt.userId = u.userId
);
Please try to use an inner join like below:
SELECT u.*
FROM [dbo].[tbl_Users] u
INNER JOIN
(
SELECT UserID
FROM tbl_UsersBelongsTo
WHERE RoleID=6
) x ON u.UserID = x.UserID
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM [dbo].[CaseTable] ct
WHERE c.tUserID = u.UserID AND ct.CreationDate between '2019-01-01' and '2019-12-31'
);
You can read more about JOINS here.
If I understood the question correctly - you are using 2 different databases and the name of the 2nd database is pisacara. It is possible to join tables from different databases in SQL Server as long as as those databases are on the same server and you use the same credentials for both databases.
Assuming that tbl_Users table has a UserID field as well, the query would look something like this:
SELECT u.*
FROM [1st_database_name].[dbo].[tbl_Users] u
INNER JOIN [piscara].[dbo].[tbl_UsersBelongsTo] a
ON u.UserID = a.UserID
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM [1st_database_name].[dbo].[CaseTable] ct
WHERE c.tUserID = u.UserID
AND ct.CreationDate BETWEEN'2019-01-01' AND'2019-12-31'
)
AND a.RoleID=6;
You can also try putting the 2nd query in the WHERE clause, as a sub-query, like so:
SELECT u.*
FROM [1st_database_name].[dbo].[tbl_Users] u
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM [1st_database_name].[dbo].[CaseTable] ct
WHERE c.tUserID = u.UserID
AND ct.CreationDate BETWEEN'2019-01-01' AND'2019-12-31'
)
AND u.UserID IN (SELECT UserID
FROM [piscara].[dbo].[tbl_UsersBelongsTo]
WHERE RoleID=6);
I have this query, it's supposed to return results of non validated accounts in a database, that were created after a certain date. I keep getting this error and I'm not sure how to eliminate it. Here is the query:
select count(*) (nolock)
from dbo.[User]
where ID is not null
and UserStatusID!=2
and CreateDateTime>='5/1/2012'
and not exists (select userid from dbo.UserValidation where dbo.[User].UserID=dbo.UserValidation.UserID)
It errors out on the "where dbo.[User].UserID=dbo.UserValidation.UserID" What am I doing wrong here?
Try aliasing the tables:
select count(*) (nolock)
from dbo.[User] u
where ID is not null
and UserStatusID != 2
and CreateDateTime >= '5/1/2012'
and not exists (select uv.userid from dbo.UserValidation uv where u.UserID = uv.UserID)
Without the schema:
select count(*) (nolock)
from [User] u
where ID is not null
and UserStatusID != 2
and CreateDateTime >= '5/1/2012'
and not exists (select uv.userid from UserValidation uv where u.UserID = uv.UserID)
While doing a JOIN it's always better to explicitly qualify all the columns in query like below.
select count(u.userid)
from [User] u
where u.ID is not null
and u.UserStatusID != 2
and u.CreateDateTime >= '5/1/2012'
and not exists
(
select uv.userid
from UserValidation uv
where uv.UserID = u.UserID
)
SELECT A.Name, H.Name as BookedBy
FROM dbo.vwAllLoads A WITH (NOEXPAND)
LEFT JOIN dbo.SystemInfo H
ON (A.BookedByUserID = H.GlobalNetUserID)
WHERE ((A.CustomerID IN (SELECT UCR.CustomerID
FROM dbo.UserCustomerRelations UCR
WHERE UCR.UserID IN
(SELECT UserID FROM #PodUsers)
OR H.GlobalUserID IN
(SELECT UserID FROM #PodUsers)))
Now I filter data using above where clause. How can I accomplish the same using joins or in a better way?
Please help
Assuming your query is something like:
select a.*
from a
where A.CustomerID IN (SELECT UCR.CustomerID
FROM dbo.UserCustomerRelations UCR
WHERE UCR.UserID IN (SELECT UserID FROM #PodUsers) OR
UCR.GlobalNetUserID IN (SELECT UserID FROM #PodUsers)
-----------------------------^ was `H`, I'm assuming is `UCR`
)
Then the following should be an equivalent query using joins:
select distinct a.*
from a join
dbo.UserCustomerRelations ucr
on A.CustomerID = ucr.CustomerID join
#PodUsers pu
on ucr.UserId = pu.UserId or ucr.UserId = ucr.GlobalNetUserID = pu.UserId;
The distinct would be unnecessary if you know that the joins do not produce multiple rows
I guess something like this:
INNER JOIN [dbo].[UserCustomerRelations] UCR
ON A.[CustomerID] = UCR.[CustomerID]
INNER JOIN #PodUsers PU
ON UCR.[CustomerID] = PD.[UserID]
OR H.[GlobalNetUserID] = PD.[UserID]
I have two tables:
UserTable contains (UserID, UserName) and StoryTable contains
(StoryID, UserID(foreignkey), StoryName, InsertedDate)
How can I query to get each User Name along with the latest story name that he has posted ? (I m new to queries so kindly excuse if its quite basic)
I tried:
SELECT a.Username, b.StoryName FROM [dbo].[UserTable] as A INNER JOIN
[dbo].[StoryTable] as b ON a.UserID = b.UserID WHERE InsertedDate =
MAX(InsertedDate) group by a.UserName;
but it throws error in sql server 2008.
Change your query to be this:
SELECT a.Username, b.StoryName
FROM [dbo].[UserTable] as A
INNER JOIN [dbo].[StoryTable] as b ON a.UserID = b.UserID
WHERE b.InsertedDate =
(SELECT MAX(InsertedDate) FROM [StoryTable] AS z WHERE z.UserID = A.UserID)
Edited as per comment:
SELECT a.Username, b.StoryName
FROM [dbo].[UserTable] as A
INNER JOIN [dbo].[StoryTable] as b ON a.UserID = b.UserID
WHERE b.StoryID =
(SELECT MAX(z.StoryID) FROM [StoryTable] AS z WHERE z.UserID = A.UserID)
SELECT Top 1 a.Username, b.StoryName
FROM [dbo].[UserTable] as A
INNER JOIN [dbo].[StoryTable] as b ON a.UserID = b.UserID
order by b.InsertedDate desc
MAX is an aggregate function, to filter using an aggregate function, you need to use the HAVING keyword instead of WHERE
You can do like this
SELECT u.Username, s.StoryName
FROM [dbo].[UserTable] AS u
CROSS APPLY (SELECT TOP 1 StoryName
FROM [dbo].[StoryTable] AS ss
WHERE ss.UserID = u.UserID
ORDER BY ss.InsertedDate DESC
) AS s
