I don't think there is an elegant way to do this, but here goes. Database contains 5000 records with timestamps of 2 years. I need to pull the records under each day of the year.
So it looks like..
09/09/2009 - record938, record2, record493
09/10/2009 - record260, record485, record610
...etc
I cannot use GROUP BY. There are duplicates and that's OK. I need to show them.
Is this possible? PHP/MySQL?
One way of doing it is looping through every day of the year and doing a query with "WHERE DAY(created_at)..." but obviously this isn't elegant.
HOW can I do this? I posted this question before without a satisfactory answer (answer was what I just stated above)
MySQL has the group_concat() aggregate function:
SELECT date(rec_time), group_concat(rec_id)
FROM records GROUP BY date(rec_time);
Will return all rec_id values from table joined by commas, for each date. If you want a separator other than , use group_concat(some_column SEPARATOR '-')
Example
For example if your table looks like:
+--------+---------------------+
| rec_id | rec_time |
+--------+---------------------+
| 1 | 2009-11-28 10:00:00 |
| 2 | 2009-11-28 20:00:00 |
| 3 | 2009-11-27 15:00:00 |
| 4 | 2009-11-27 07:00:00 |
| 5 | 2009-11-28 08:00:00 |
+--------+---------------------+
Then this query gives:
mysql> SELECT date(rec_time), group_concat(rec_id)
-> FROM records GROUP BY date(rec_time);
+----------------+----------------------+
| date(rec_time) | group_concat(rec_id) |
+----------------+----------------------+
| 2009-11-27 | 3,4 |
| 2009-11-28 | 1,2,5 |
+----------------+----------------------+
Caveat
Beware that the result is limited by the group_concat_max_len system variable, which defaults to only 1024 bytes! To avoid hitting this wall, you should execute this before running the query:
SET SESSION group_concat_max_len = 65536;
Or more, depending on how many results you expect. But this value cannot be larger than max_allowed_packet

I have data from 3 tables as copied below . I am not using joins to get data. I dont know how to use joins for multiple tables scenario. My situation is to update the OLD(eff_start_ts) date rows to sydate in one of the tables when we find the rows returned for a particular user is more than 2. enter code here
subscription_id |Client_id
----------------------------
20685413 |37455837
reward_account_id|subscription_id |CURRENCY_BAL_AMT |CREATE_TS |
----------------------------------------------------------------------
439111697 | 20685413 | -40 |1-09-10 |
REWARD_ACCT_DETAIL_ID|REWARD_ACCOUNT_ID |EFF_START_TS |EFF_STOP_TS |
----------------------------------------------------------------------
230900968 | 439111697 | 14-06-11 | 15-01-19
47193932 | 439111697 | 19-02-14 | 19-12-21
243642632 | 439111697 | 18-03-23 | 99-12-31
247192972 | 439111697 | 17-11-01 | 17-11-01
The SQL should update the EFF_STOP_TS of last table except the second row - 47193932 bcz that has the latest EFF_START_TS.
Expected result is to update the EFF_STOP_TS column of 230900968, 243642632 and 247192972 to sysdate.
As per my understanding, You need to update it per REWARD_ACCOUNT_ID. So, You can try the below code -
UPDATE REWARD_ACCT_DETAIL RAD
SET EFF_STOP_TS = SYSDATE
WHERE EFF_START_TS NOT IN (SELECT MAX(EFF_START_TS)
FROM REWARD_ACCT_DETAIL RAD1
WHERE RAD.REWARD_ACCOUNT_ID = RAD1.REWARD_ACCOUNT_ID)
I need to get the time difference between two dates on different rows. This part is okay but I can have instances of the same title. A quick example which will explain things some more.
Lets say we have a table with the following records:
| ID | Title | Date |
| ----- | ------- |--------------------|
| 1 | Down |2021-03-07 12:05:00 |
| 2 | Up |2021-03-07 13:05:00 |
| 3 | Down |2021-03-07 10:30:00 |
| 4 | Up |2021-03-07 11:00:00 |
I basically need to get the time difference between the first "Down" and "Up". So ID 1 & 2 = 1 hour.
Then ID 3 & 4 = 30 mins, and so on for the amount of "Down" and "Up" rows there are.
(These will always be grouped together one after another)
It doesn't matter if the results are seperate or a SUM of all the differences.
I'm trying to get this done without a temp table.
Thank you.
This can be done using analytical functions, the availability of which will be determined based on your sql engine. The idea is to get the next value in the same row as the one you need to calculate the diff/sum
In the case above it would look some thing like below
SELECT
id ,
title,
Date as startdate,
LEAD(Date,1) OVER (
ORDER BY id
) enddate
FROM
table;
Once you have it on the same row, you can carry out your time difference operation.
I want to combine two tables into one:
The first table: Payments
id | 2010_01 | 2010_02 | 2010_03
1 | 3.000 | 500 | 0
2 | 1.000 | 800 | 0
3 | 200 | 2.000 | 300
4 | 700 | 1.000 | 100
The second table is ID and some date (different for every ID)
id | date |
1 | 2010-02-28 |
2 | 2010-03-01 |
3 | 2010-01-31 |
4 | 2011-02-11 |
What I'm trying to achieve is to create table which contains all payments before the date in ID table to create something like this:
id | date | T_00 | T_01 | T_02
1 | 2010-02-28 | 500 | 3.000 |
2 | 2010-03-01 | 0 | 800 | 1.000
3 | 2010-01-31 | 200 | |
4 | 2010-02-11 | 1.000 | 700 |
Where T_00 means payment in the same month as 'date' value, T_01 payment in previous month and so on.
Is there a way to do this?
EDIT:
I'm trying to achieve this in MS Access.
The problem is that I cannot connect name of the first table's column with the date in the second (the easiest way would be to treat it as variable)
I added T_00 to T_24 columns in the second (ID) table and was trying to UPDATE those fields
set T_00 =
iif(year(date)&"_"&month(date)=2010_10,
but I realized that that would be to much code for access to handle if I wanted to do this for every payment period and every T_xx column.
Even if I would write the code for T_00 I would have to repeat it for next 23 periods.
Your Payments table is de-normalized. Those date columns are repeating groups, meaning you've violated First Normal Form (1NF). It's especially difficult because your field names are actually data. As you've found, repeating groups are a complete pain in the ass when you want to relate the table to something else. This is why 1NF is so important, but knowing that doesn't solve your problem.
You can normalize your data by creating a view that UNIONs your Payments table.
Like so:
CREATE VIEW NormalizedPayments (id, Year, Month, Amount) AS
SELECT id,
2010 AS Year,
1 AS Month,
2010_01 AS Amount
FROM Payments
UNION ALL
SELECT id,
2010 AS Year,
2 AS Month,
2010_02 AS Amount
FROM Payments
UNION ALL
SELECT id,
2010 AS Year,
3 AS Month,
2010_03 AS Amount
FROM Payments
And so on if you have more. This is how the Payments table should have been designed in the first place.
It may be easier to use a date field with the value '2010-01-01' instead of a Year and Month field. It depends on your data. You may also want to add WHERE Amount IS NOT NULL to each query in the UNION, or you might want to use Nz(2010_01,0.000) AS Amount. Again, it depends on your data and other queries.
It's hard for me to understand how you're joining from here, particularly how the id fields relate because I don't see how they do with the small amount of data provided, so I'll provide some general ideas for what to do next.
Next you can join your second table with this normalized Payments table using a method similar to this or a method similar to this. To actually produce the result you want, include a calculated field in this view with the difference in months. Then, create an actual Pivot Table to format your results (like this or like this) which is the proper way to display data like your tables do.
I am trying to make a drop down picker in an Access database to display all the primary keys not used, in this case a date that is limited to the first of the month.
I have 2 tables that are for this use
tblReport
pk date | Data for this record |
05/01/13 | stuff
06/01/13 | stuff
07/01/13 | stuff
08/01/13 | stuff
and
tblFutureDates
pk date | an index
05/01/13 | 1
06/01/13 | 2
07/01/13 | 3
08/01/13 | 4
09/01/13 | 5
10/01/13 | 6
11/01/13 | 7
12/01/13 | 8
I want a query that looks at these two tables and returns the dates that are in the second table that aren't in the first one. I have tried some joins but cannot figure it out. This is what I have thus far:
SELECT tblFutureDates.FutureDate
FROM tblFutureDates RIGHT JOIN tblReport
ON tblFutureDates.FutureDate = tblReport.ReportMonth;
and that returns:
05/01/13
06/01/13
07/01/13
08/01/13
Thanks
This selects dates from tblFutureDates that are NOT IN tblReport
SELECT tblFutureDates.FutureDate
FROM tblFutureDates
WHERE tblFutureDates.FutureDate
NOT IN (SELECT tblReport.ReportMonth FROM tblReport)
You can also use LEFT JOIN WHERE IS NULL and NOT EXISTS for more information about all 3 see this post.
Ok, I have a tough SQL query, and I'm not sure how to go about writing it.
I am summing the number of "bananas collected" by an employee within the last X days, but what I could really use help on is determining X.
The "last X days" value is defined to be the last 100 days that the employee was NOT out due to Purple Fever, starting from some ChosenDate (we'll say today, 6/24/14). That is to say, if the person was sick with Purple Fever for 3 days, then I want to look back over the last 103 days from ChosenDate rather than the last 100 days. Any other reason the employee may have been out does not affect our calculation.
Table PersonOutIncident
+----------------------+----------+-------------+
| PersonOutIncidentID | PersonID | ReasonOut |
+----------------------+----------+-------------+
| 1 | Sarah | PurpleFever |
| 2 | Sarah | PaperCut |
| 3 | Jon | PurpleFever |
| 4 | Sarah | PurpleFever |
+----------------------+----------+-------------+
Table PersonOutDetail
+-------------------+----------------------+-----------+-----------+
| PersonOutDetailID | PersonOutIncidentID | BeginDate | EndDate |
+-------------------+----------------------+-----------+-----------+
| 1 | 1 | 1/1/2014 | 1/3/2014 |
| 2 | 1 | 1/7/2014 | 1/13/2014 |
| 3 | 2 | 2/1/2014 | 2/3/2014 |
| 4 | 3 | 1/15/2014 | 1/20/2014 |
| 5 | 4 | 5/1/2014 | 5/15/2014 |
+-------------------+----------------------+-----------+-----------+
The tables are established. Many PersonOutDetail records can be associated with one PersonOutIncident record and there may be multiple PersonOutIncident records for a single employee (That is to say, there could be two or three PersonOutIncident records with an identical ReasonOut column, because they represent a particular incident or event and the not-necessarily-continuous days lost due to that particular incident)
The nature of this requirement complicates things, even conceptually to me.
The best I can think of is to check for a BeginDate/EndDate pair within the 100 day base period, then determine the number of days from BeginDate to EndDate and add that to the base 100 days. But then I would have to check again that this new range doesn't overlap or contain additional BeginDate/EndDate pairs and add, if so, add those days as well. I can tell already that this isn't the method I want to use, but I can't wrap my mind quite around how exactly what I need to start/structure this query. Does anyone have an idea that might steer me in the correct direction? I realize this might not be clear and I apologize if I'm just confusing things.
One way to do this is to work with a table or WITH CLAUSE that contains a list of days. Let's say days is a table with one column that contains the last 200 days. (This means the query will break if the employee had more than 100 sick days in the last 200 days).
Now you can get a list of all working days of an employee like this (replace ? with the employee id):
WITH t1 AS
(
SELECT day,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY day DESC) AS 'RowNumber'
FROM days d
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM PersonOutDetail pd
INNER JOIN PersonOutIncidentID po ON po.PersonOutIncidentID = pd.PersonOutIncidentID
WHERE d.day BETWEEN pd.BeginDate AND pd.EndDate
AND po.ReasonOut = 'PurpleFever'
AND po.PersonID = ?)
)
SELECT * FROM t1
WHERE RowNumber <= 100;
Alternatively, you can obtain the '100th day' by replacing RowNumber <= 100 with RowNumber = 100.
