I would like to get the highest price of each category.
The result would be:
ID

category2
15
4
category3
20
5
category4
25
select Max(price), ID, category from article
group by ID,category
returns:

1
category1
10
2
category1
55
3
category2
15
4
category3
20

category4
25
Unfortunately I get both rows for category 1. But I only would like to have the highest price in category 1 which is 55.
Can someone help me?
see above
Try this...
I've reproduced your sample data and then added a rnk column which ranks by price descending witin each category, used this in the subquery and just returned anything where rank is 1.
DECLARE #articles TABLE (ID int, Category varchar(20), Price float)
INSERT INTO #articles VALUES
(1, 'category1', 10),
(2, 'category1', 55),
(3, 'category2', 15),
(4, 'category3', 20),
(5, 'category4', 25)
SELECT
ID, Category, Price
FROM (
SELECT
ID, Category, Price
, RANK() OVER(PARTITION BY Category ORDER BY Price DESC) as rnk
FROM #articles
) a
WHERE a.rnk = 1
Which gives these results
Bote If you have two articles for the same category with the same price, both will be returned.

In this example, the returned column is essentially the first line of the order that is a fruit, not a vegetable. And if the order includes no matching fruit, null is returned.
What my code is thus far:
SELECT
MAIN.ORDER_NO,
MAIN.ORDER_DATE,
MAIN.ORDER_CUST,
MAIN.ORDER_VALUE,
B.ITEM
FROM
MAIN
LEFT JOIN
(
SELECT
CHILD.ORDER_NO,
CHILD.LINE_NO,
CHILD.ITEM
FROM
CHILD
WHERE
CHILD.ORDER_NO||'_'||LINE_NO IN
(
SELECT
CHILD.ORDER_NO||'_'||MIN(LINE_NO) AS ORDER_LINE_NO
FROM
CHILD
WHERE
CHILD.ITEM IN ('APPLES','ORANGES','PEACHES','PEARS','GRAPES')
GROUP BY
CHILD.ORDER_NO
)
) B ON MAIN.ORDER_NO = B.ORDER_NO
'''
This code is of course not working as desired, as table 'B' is including all results from CHILD.
From Oracle 12, you can use:
SELECT o.*,
d.item
FROM orders o
LEFT OUTER JOIN LATERAL(
SELECT *
FROM order_details d
WHERE o.order_no = d.order_no
AND item IN ('APPLES','ORANGES','PEACHES','PEARS','GRAPES')
ORDER BY line_no ASC
FETCH FIRST ROW ONLY
) d
ON (1 = 1)
In earlier versions you can use:
SELECT o.*,
d.item
FROM orders o
LEFT OUTER JOIN(
SELECT d.*,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY order_no ORDER BY line_no ASC)
AS rn
FROM order_details d
WHERE item IN ('APPLES','ORANGES','PEACHES','PEARS','GRAPES')
) d
ON (o.order_no = d.order_no AND rn = 1)
Which, for the sample data:
CREATE TABLE orders (ORDER_NO, ORDER_DATE, ORDER_CUST, ORDER_VALUE) AS
SELECT 1, DATE '2022-02-14', 12345, 1000.00 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 2, DATE '2022-02-13', 67890, 5000.00 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 3, DATE '2022-02-12', 45678, 100.00 FROM DUAL;
CREATE TABLE Order_Details (ORDER_NO, LINE_NO, ITEM) AS
SELECT 1, 10, 'APPLES' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 1, 20, 'ORANGES' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 1, 30, 'LETTUCE' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 2, 10, 'BROCCOLI' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 2, 20, 'CAULIFLOWER' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 2, 30, 'LETTUCE' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 3, 10, 'KALE' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 3, 20, 'RADISHES' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 3, 30, 'PEARS' FROM DUAL;

Can someone please help me put this query together?
I have this table:
store name status orders
billys store new 15
billys store ordered 20
billys store canceled 2
johnny store new 5
johnny store out_of_stock 20
rosie store new 6
rosie store ordered 4
rosie store out_of_stock 10
So as you can see, some stores have some statuses that others don't.
My desired result is the following:
store name new ordered canceled out of stock
billys store 15 20 2 0
johnny store 5 0 0 20
rosie store 6 4 0 10
I have tried the following:
SELECT * FROM crosstab(
'SELECT store_name::text as store_name,
status::text as status,
count(*)::int as orders
FROM organizations
INNER JOIN orders ON organization_id = organizations.id
GROUP BY store_name, status
ORDER BY store_name, status'
) x (store_name text, "new" int, "ordered" int)
But this doesn't work since it will break when the new row is not an expected value. For example with 'johnny store', after 'new' is not 'ordered', it's 'out_of_stock' so that won't work.
I've looked through a bunch of StackOverflow posts but I'm just overall pretty confused. Thank you
We can do this using CASE to avoid using sub-queries.
CREATE TABLE organisation (
store_name VARCHAR(25),
status VARCHAR(25),
orders INT);
INSERT INTO organisation VALUES
('billys store', 'new' , 15),
('billys store', 'ordered' , 20),

('johnny store', 'new' , 5),
('johnny store', 'out_of_stock', 20),
('rosie store' , 'new' , 6),
('rosie store' , 'ordered' , 4),
('rosie store' , 'out_of_stock', 10);

SELECT store_name,
SUM(CASE WHEN status='new' THEN orders ELSE 0 END) new_,
SUM(CASE WHEN status='canceled' THEN orders ELSE 0 END) canceled,

SUM(CASE WHEN status='new' THEN orders ELSE 0 END) o_o_s
FROM organisation o
GROUP BY store_name;

Maybe you couldn't understand it from the link I provided but tablefunc extension makes this much easier IMHO. Here is a sample based on your code, you would replace the first query with yours that gets the data from your tables:
create temporary table myTable (storename text, status text, orders int);
insert into myTable (storename, status, orders)
values
('billys store','new', 15),
('billys store','ordered', 20),
('billys store','canceled', 2),
('johnny store','new', 5),
('johnny store','out_of_stock', 20),
('rosie store','new', 6),
('rosie store','ordered', 4),
('rosie store','out_of_stock', 10);
SELECT * FROM crosstab(
'SELECT storename,
status,
orders
FROM myTable',
'select * from unnest(string_to_array(''new,ordered,canceled,out_of_stock'', '',''))'
) x (storename text, "new" int, "ordered" int, "canceled" int, "out_of_stock" int);
drop table myTable;
Here is DBFiddle demo
I have a table with records representing a log, I omit rest of the columns in this example.
The id-column is autoincrement, item_id represents an item in app.
I need to get the latest item_id, for example two or three
CREATE TABLE "log" (
"id" INT,
"item_id" INT
);
-- TRUNCATE TABLE "log";
INSERT INTO "log" ("id", "item_id") VALUES
(1, 1),
(2, 2),
(3, 1),
(4, 1),
(5, 3),
(6, 3);
Basic query will list all results, latest at the top:
SELECT *
FROM "log"
ORDER BY "id" DESC
id item_id
6 3
5 3
4 1
3 1
2 2
1 1
I would like to have just two (LIMIT 2) last item_ids with their id. Last means - inserted last (ORDER BY id).
id item_id
6 3
4 1
Last three would be
id item_id
6 3
4 1
2 2
Once an item_id is returned, it is not returned again. So LIMIT 4 would return only three rows because there are only three unique item_id.
I am probably missing something. I already tried various combinations of DISTINCT OF, GROUP BY, LIMIT etc.
UPDATE #1:
After I tested query by S-man (below), I found out that it works for the data I provided howerer it does not work in general, for another set of data (sequence of item_id A, B and A again.). Here is another data set:
TRUNCATE TABLE "log";
INSERT INTO "log" ("id", "item_id") VALUES
(1, 1),
(2, 2),
(3, 3),
(4, 3),
(5, 1),
(6, 3);
Data in DB, ordered by id desc:
id item_id
6 3
5 1
4 3
3 3
2 2
1 1
Expected result for last three item_id
6 3
5 1
2 2
Well, after three changes, now we come back to the very first idea:
Just take DISTINCT ON:
demo:db<>fiddle
SELECT
*
FROM (
SELECT DISTINCT ON (item_id) -- 1
*
FROM log
ORDER BY item_id, id DESC
) s
ORDER BY id DESC -- 2
LIMIT 2
Returns exact one record of an ordered group. You group is the item_id, the order is id DESC, so you get the highest id for each item_id
Reorder by id DESC (instead of the previously ordered item_id) and limit your query output.
I am using SQL Server 2014. I have a table like this
create table revenue (id varchar(2), trasdate date, revenue int);
insert into revenue(id, trasdate, revenue)
values ('aa', '2018/09/01', 1234.5),
('aa' , '2018/08/04', 450),
('aa', '2018/07/03',500),
('aa', '2018/06/04',600),

('ab', '2018/06/04',600),
('ab', '2018/05/03', 200),
('ab', '2018/04/02', 150),
('ab', '2018/03/01', 350),
('ab', '2018/02/05', 700),
('aa', '2018/01/07', 400)

I am preparing a SQL query to create a SSRS report. I want to calculate a past 3 month average for current and every past 3rd month with result like below. As we are in month of September right now. The result should show something like this:
**id Period Revenue_3Mon**
aa March-May 233
aa June-Aug 516
ab March-May 233
ab June-Aug 516
Though I can figure out about the Period column. I was mainly focussing on getting the Revenue_3Mon. So I initially tried with the below query after some googling. But this query throws an error as incorrect syntax near 'rows' and if I remove rows from the query then it throws an error as Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'between'. And incorrect syntax near i.
select i.id,i.mon,
avg([i.mon_revenue]) over (partition by i.id, i.mon order by [i.id],
[i.mon] rows between 3 preceding and 1 preceding row) as revenue_3mon --
-- using 3 preceding and 1 preceding row you exclude the current row
from (select a.id, month(a.trasdate) as mon,
sum(a.revenue) as mon_revenue
from revenue a
group by a.id, month(a.trasdate)) i
group by i.id, i.mon
order by i.id,i.mon;
After few efforts, I gave up on this query and came up with new solution which was a bit close to my expectation (after lots of trial and errors).
Declare #count as int;
declare #max as int;
set #count = 4
declare #temp as table (id varchar(2), monthoftrasdate int, revenue int,
[3monavg] int);
SET #MAX = (SELECT distinct MAX(a.ROWNUM) FROM (SELECT id, month(trasdate)
as mon, SUM(revenue) TotalRevenue,
-- sum(revenue) as mon_revenue,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY ID ORDER BY MONTH(TRASDATE)) AS ROWNUM
FROM revenue
GROUP BY ID, MONTH(TRASDATE)
) A GROUP BY A.ID);
while (#count <= #max )
begin
WITH CTE AS (
SELECT id, month(trasdate) as mon, SUM(revenue) TotalRevenue,
-- sum(revenue) as mon_revenue,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY ID ORDER BY MONTH(TRASDATE)) AS
ROWNUM
FROM revenue
GROUP BY ID, MONTH(TRASDATE)
)
insert into #temp
SELECT A.ID,A.MON, a.TotalRevenue
,( SELECT avg(b.TotalRevenue) as avgrev
FROM CTE B
WHERE B.ROWNUM BETWEEN A.ROWNUM-3 AND A.ROWNUM-1
AND A.ID = B.ID --AND A.mon = B.mon
--and b.ROWNUM < a.ROWNUM
and (a.mon > 3 and a.ROWNUM > 3)
GROUP BY B.id
) AS REVENUE_3MON
FROM CTE A
set #count = #count + 1
end
select distinct a.* from #temp a
The reason I had to use 'distinct' is because the query was showing duplicate records for every id and every month. So far the result shows like below
id MonthofTrasdate Revenue 3MonAvg
aa 1 400 NULL
aa 2 700 NULL
aa 3 350 NULL
aa 4 150 483
aa 5 200 400
aa 6 600 233
aa 7 500 316
aa 8 450 433
aa 9 1234 516
ab 1 400 NULL
ab 2 700 NULL
ab 3 350 NULL
ab 4 150 483
ab 5 200 400
ab 6 600 233
ab 7 500 316
ab 8 450 433
ab 9 1234 516
This pulls out past 3 month average for every month. But i will just manipulate the rest on SSRS the way i want it.
As currently my table has no data for previous year. This works for me showing the appropriate result for next couple of months for now. But my concern is when I have to show my boss for next year Jan, Feb and March then it should be able to pull also for these months as well like Oct-Dec (Previous year), Nov-Jan and Dec - Feb. I am struggling to figure out the proper way to put this in my query.
Can you please help me out with this query? And also let me know what is wrong with my former query.
Problems with your first attempt:
You enclosed some of the aliases and column names in square brackets like [i.mon_revenue]. There is no need for square brackets, but if you want to use them, you have to break them up at the dot: [i].[mon_revenue].
In your window function expression, there is one row too many (in the end).
Window functions are applied at the very end (after the rest of the respective query), so you also have to include i.mon_revenue in your GROUP BY clause of the outer query.
Knowing that the inner query will produce one row per id and mon, there will never be preceding rows in an id-mon partition. Therefore, you must not partition by both, but only by id.
To simplify the query after resolving the issues: ordering by a partition column generally makes no sense, and since - as already mentioned - the inner query returns unique id-mon combinations, you don't have to group by these in the outer query. Looking at that query, we see that the outer query just directly selects and uses the values from the inner query, which makes a separation in two queries unneccessary. So, in fact, you wanted to perform the following query, which will produce the rolling 3-month average (I added the monthly TotalRevenue as well):
SELECT id, MONTH(trasdate) AS mon, SUM(revenue) AS TotalRevenue,
AVG(SUM(revenue)) OVER (PARTITION BY id ORDER BY MONTH(trasdate) ROWS BETWEEN 3 PRECEDING AND 1 PRECEDING) AS revenue_3mon
FROM revenue
GROUP BY id, MONTH(trasdate)
ORDER BY id, MONTH(trasdate);
Suggestions on your second attempt:
When calculating the #MAX value, you rely on the fact that each id has revenues for the same number of months. Are you sure?
The code inside the WHILE loop does not depend on #count, so it will add the same data into the #temp table multiple times, which is probably the reason why you thought you needed a DISTINCT. Therfore: No need for the variables, no need for a loop and a #temp, no need for DISTINCT.
The conditions A.mon > 3 and A.rownum > 3 are redundant with your current data. In general, I guess, you don't want to explicitly excluse the months from January to March, so A.mon > 3 should be removed. A.rownum > 3 could be removed, too, unless you really don't want to see a 3-month average when there are only 2 preceding months or less.
As the subquery for the average is restricted to only one id, there's no need for a GROUP BY.
Since the ROW_NUMBER function doesn't care about gaps in the months, I suggest to use a different numbering function, for example DATEDIFF(month, MAX(trasdate), GETDATE()) AS mnum. Of course, the comparison in the WHERE clause of the subquery then has to be changed to B.mnum BETWEEN A.mnum+1 AND A.mnum+3.
So, your second attempt can be reduced to this, which will produce the same result as the above, at least with your sample data, where no gaps in the months exist:
WITH CTE AS (
SELECT id, MONTH(trasdate) AS mon, SUM(revenue) AS TotalRevenue,
DATEDIFF(month, MAX(trasdate), GETDATE()) AS mnum
FROM revenue
GROUP BY id, MONTH(trasdate)
)
SELECT id, mon, TotalRevenue
, (SELECT AVG(B.TotalRevenue)
FROM CTE B
WHERE B.mnum BETWEEN A.mnum+1 AND A.mnum+3
AND A.id = B.id
) AS revenue_3mon
FROM CTE A
ORDER BY id, mnum DESC;
Now, guess what, an expression like my mnum using DATEDIFF increases by one every month as we move to the past, regardless of a change of years, so this might be useful for grouping as well, whether you want to (or can?) use Window functions or not:
With OVER()
SELECT id, MONTH(MIN(trasdate)) AS mon, YEAR(MIN(trasdate)) AS yr, SUM(revenue) AS TotalRevenue,
AVG(SUM(revenue)) OVER (PARTITION BY id ORDER BY MIN(trasdate) ROWS BETWEEN 3 PRECEDING AND 1 PRECEDING) AS revenue_3mon
FROM revenue
GROUP BY id, DATEDIFF(month, trasdate, GETDATE())
ORDER BY id, DATEDIFF(month, trasdate, GETDATE()) DESC;
Without OVER()
WITH CTE AS (
SELECT id, MIN(trasdate) AS min_dt, SUM(revenue) AS TotalRevenue,
DATEDIFF(month, trasdate, GETDATE()) AS mnum
FROM revenue
GROUP BY id, DATEDIFF(month, trasdate, GETDATE())
)
SELECT id, MONTH(min_dt) AS mon, YEAR(min_dt) AS yr, TotalRevenue
, (SELECT AVG(B.TotalRevenue)
FROM CTE B
WHERE B.mnum BETWEEN A.mnum+1 AND A.mnum+3
AND A.id = B.id
) AS revenue_3mon
FROM CTE A
ORDER BY id, mnum DESC;
Both queries allow for retrieving the minimum and maximum date for each period (including month and year).
If you instead wanted what you originally posted under The result should show something like this (just grouping by previous 3-months intervals), you just would have to group your original revenue table by id and (DATEDIFF(month, trasdate, GETDATE())-1)/3 (filtering WHERE DATEDIFF(month, trasdate, GETDATE()) > 0). If so, this kind of grouping and aggregation could, of course, be done also by the Report Server.
I think this should do what you want:
select r.*,
avg(r.mon_revenue) over (partition by r.id
order by r.mon_min
rows between 3 preceding and 1 preceding row
) as revenue_3mon
-- using 3 preceding and 1 preceding row you exclude the current row
from (select r.id, month(r.trasdate) as mon,
min(r.trasdate) as mon_min,
sum(r.revenue) as mon_revenue
from revenue r
group by r.id, year(r.trasdate), month(r.trasdate)
) 4
order by r.id, r.mon, r.mon_min;
Notes:
I fixed the code so it recognizes years as well as dates.
The expression [i.mon_revenue] is not a valid column reference (in your case). You have no column with the name "i.mon_revenue" (with the . in the name).
I changed the column alias to r to match the table.
I added a date column for each month to make it easier to express the ordering.
The outer group by is not necessary.
There are several syntax errors in your code. This should give you what you need. The inner query is the important bit but hopefully this will be enough to get you on your way.
I switch our the temp table for variable and changed the revenue column to not be INT as you have decimal values in there but other than that your original sample table is unchanged
DECLARE #revenue table (id varchar(2), trasdate date, revenue float)
insert into #revenue(id, trasdate, revenue)
values ('aa', '2018/09/01', 1234.5),
('aa' , '2018/08/04', 450),
('aa', '2018/07/03',500),
