I am trying to wrap my head around sub-queries (correlated). Although the book explains (MS SQL Server 2012) it I'm still a little confused. Using three tables, Orders, Products and OrderDetails I want to find the sum of all products that were shipped to USA. I came up with the following query but do not quite understand how I got there except the correlation is referencing the 'where' in the outer query. Can someone correct my work and offer better explanation than book?
SELECT p.productid, p.productname, SUM(qty * od.unitprice) AS TotalAmount
FROM Production.Products AS p
JOIN Sales.OrderDetails AS od
ON p.productid = od.productid
WHERE N'USA' IN
(SELECT o.shipcountry
FROM Sales.Orders AS o
JOIN Sales.OrderDetails AS od
ON o.orderid = od.orderid
WHERE shipcountry = N'USA')
GROUP BY p.productid, p.productname;
SELECT
p.ProductID
, p.ProductName
, SUM(qty * od.UnitPrice) as [Total_Amount]
FROM
Production.Products productid
JOIN Sales.OrderDetails as od on p.productid = od.product
JOIN SalesOrders as o on o.OrderID = od.OrderID
WHERE
o.Shipcountry in ('USA')
Group BY
p.ProductID,
P.ProductName
The following should work - you technically dont require the sub query. Will only bog down the query.

I have a difficulty dealing with a SQL query. I use PostgreSQL.
The query says: Show the customers that have done at least an order that contains products from 3 different categories. The result will be 2 columns, CustomerID, and the amount of orders. I have written this code but I don't think it's correct.
select SalesOrderHeader.CustomerID,
count(SalesOrderHeader.SalesOrderID) AS amount_of_orders
from SalesOrderHeader
inner join SalesOrderDetail on
(SalesOrderHeader.SalesOrderID=SalesOrderDetail.SalesOrderID)
inner join Product on
(SalesOrderDetail.ProductID=Product.ProductID)
where SalesOrderDetail.SalesOrderDetailID in
(select DISTINCT count(ProductCategoryID)
from Product
group by ProductCategoryID
having count(DISTINCT ProductCategoryID)>=3)
group by SalesOrderHeader.CustomerID;
Here are the database tables needed for the query:
where SalesOrderDetail.SalesOrderDetailID in
(select DISTINCT count(ProductCategoryID)
Is never going to give you a result as an ID (SalesOrderDetailID) will never logically match a COUNT (count(ProductCategoryID)).
This should get you the output I think you want.
SELECT soh.CustomerID, COUNT(soh.SalesOrderID) AS amount_of_orders
FROM SalesOrderHeader soh
INNER JOIN SalesOrderDetail sod ON soh.SalesOrderID = sod.SalesOrderID
INNER JOIN Product p ON sod.ProductID = p.ProductID
HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT p.ProductCategoryID) >= 3
GROUP BY soh.CustomerID
Try this :
select CustomerID,count(*) as amount_of_order from
SalesOrder join
(
select SalesOrderID,count(distinct ProductCategoryID) CategoryCount
from SalesOrderDetail JOIN Product using (ProductId)
group by 1
) CatCount using (SalesOrderId)
group by 1
having bool_or(CategoryCount>=3) -- At least on CategoryCount>=3
I need to build propel query that can get the latest purchase of client
Please use these table/column names in your answer:
customer: id, name
purchase: id, customer_id, date
from this question here SQL join: selecting the last records in a one-to-many relationship
I need to build propel query based one of these queries:
SELECT c.*, p1.*
FROM customer c
JOIN purchase p1 ON (c.id = p1.customer_id)
LEFT OUTER JOIN purchase p2 ON (c.id = p2.customer_id AND
(p1.date < p2.date OR p1.date = p2.date AND p1.id < p2.id))
WHERE p2.id IS NULL;
or
SELECT c.*, p.*
FROM customer c INNER JOIN
(
SELECT customer_id,
MAX(date) MaxDate
FROM purchase
GROUP BY customer_id
) MaxDates ON c.id = MaxDates.customer_id INNER JOIN
purchase p ON MaxDates.customer_id = p.customer_id
AND MaxDates.MaxDate = p.date
Well, given your question (finding latest purchase for a given client) then you just want to do a search on the purchase table ordering by date and limiting to one:
$lastPurchase = PurchaseQuery::create()
->filterByCustomerId($customerId)
->orderByDate(Criteria::DESC)
->limit(1)
->find();
The answer you link to, however, is finding all customers AND their latest purchase. In that case I would probably use a custom SQL query (although you technically can do this with Propel functions, it would be more difficult and would not get you very much since you won't be hydrating objects (at least, not easily).
UPDATE
Here's some information on doing a manual query. Note that when doing so, the data returned will NOT be Propel objects, but you can do on-demand hydration if needed.
Example:
$sql = "SELECT c.*, p1.*
FROM customer c
JOIN purchase p1 ON (c.id = p1.customer_id)
LEFT OUTER JOIN purchase p2 ON (c.id = p2.customer_id AND
(p1.date < p2.date OR p1.date = p2.date AND p1.id < p2.id))
WHERE p2.id IS NULL;";
$conn = Propel::getConnection(CustomerPeer::DATABASE_NAME);
$stmt = $conn->prepare($query);
if ($stmt->execute()) {
while($result = $stmt->fetch()) {
$someField = $result['...'];
}
}
I have three entities: Group, Activity, and Comment. Each entity is represented in the db as a table. A Group has many Activities, and an Activity has many comments. Each entity has a CreatedDate field. I need to query for all groups + the CreatedDate of the most recent entity created on that Group's object graph.
I've constructed a sql query that gives me what I need, but I'm not sure how to do this in entity framework. Specifically this line: (SELECT MAX(X)
FROM (VALUES (g.CreatedDate), (a.CreatedDate), (c.CreatedDate)) Thanks in advance for your help. Here's the full query:
WITH GroupWithLastActivityDate AS (
SELECT DISTINCT
g.Id
,g.GroupName
,g.GroupDescription
,g.CreatedDate
,g.ApartmentComplexId
,(SELECT MAX(X)
FROM (VALUES (g.CreatedDate), (a.CreatedDate), (c.CreatedDate)) AS AllDates(X)) AS LastActivityDate
FROM Groups g
LEFT OUTER JOIN Activities a
on g.Id = a.GroupId
LEFT OUTER JOIN Comments c
on a.Id = c.ActivityId
WHERE g.IsActive = 1
)
SELECT
GroupId = g.Id
,g.GroupName
,g.GroupDescription
,g.ApartmentComplexId
,NumberOfActivities = COUNT(DISTINCT a.Id)
,g.CreatedDate
,LastActivityDate = Max(g.LastActivityDate)
FROM GroupWithLastActivityDate g
INNER JOIN Activities a
on g.Id = a.GroupId
WHERE a.IsActive = 1
GROUP BY g.Id
,g.GroupName
,g.GroupDescription
,g.CreatedDate
,g.ApartmentComplexId
I should add that for now I've constructed a view with this query (plus some other stuff) which I'm querying with a SqlQuery.
How would I redesign the below query so that it will recursively loop through entire tree to return all descendants from root to leaves? (I'm using SSMS 2008). We have a President at the root. under him are the VPs, then upper management, etc., on down the line. I need to return the names and titles of each. But this query shouldn't be hard-coded; I need to be able to run this for any selected employee, not just the president. This query below is the hard-coded approach.
select P.staff_name [Level1],
P.job_title [Level1 Title],
Q.license_number [License 1],
E.staff_name [Level2],
E.job_title [Level2 Title],
G.staff_name [Level3],
G.job_title [Level3 Title]
from staff_view A
left join staff_site_link_expanded_view P on P.people_id = A.people_id
left join staff_site_link_expanded_view E on E.people_id = C.people_id
left join staff_site_link_expanded_view G on G.people_id = F.people_id
left join facility_view Q on Q.group_profile_id = P.group_profile_id
Thank you, this was most closely matching what I needed. Here is my CTE query below:
with Employee_Hierarchy (staff_name, job_title, id_number, billing_staff_credentials_code, site_name, group_profile_id, license_number, region_description, people_id)
as
(
select C.staff_name, C.job_title, C.id_number, C.billing_staff_credentials_code, C.site_name, C.group_profile_id, Q.license_number, R.region_description, A.people_id
from staff_view A
left join staff_site_link_expanded_view C on C.people_id = A.people_id
left join facility_view Q on Q.group_profile_id = C.group_profile_id
left join regions R on R.regions_id = Q.regions_id
where A.last_name = 'kromer'
)
select C.staff_name, C.job_title, C.id_number, C.billing_staff_credentials_code, C.site_name, C.group_profile_id, Q.license_number, R.region_description, A.people_id
from staff_view A
left join staff_site_link_expanded_view C on C.people_id = A.people_id
left join facility_view Q on Q.group_profile_id = C.group_profile_id
left join regions R on R.regions_id = Q.regions_id
WHERE C.STAFF_NAME IS NOT NULL
GROUP BY C.STAFF_NAME, C.job_title, C.id_number, C.billing_staff_credentials_code, C.site_name, C.group_profile_id, Q.license_number, R.region_description, A.people_id
ORDER BY C.STAFF_NAME
But I am wondering what is the purpose of the "Employee_Hierarchy"? When I replaced "staff_view" in the outer query with "Employee_Hierarchy", it only returned one record = "Kromer". So when/where can we use "Employee_Hierarchy"?
See:
SQL Server - Simple example of a recursive CTE
MSDN: Recursive Queries using Common Table Expression
SQL Server recursive CTE (this seems pretty much like exactly what you are working on!)
Update:
A proper recursive CTE consist of basically three things:
an anchor SELECT to begin with; that can select e.g. the root level employees (where the Reports_To is NULL), or it can select any arbitrary employee that you define, e.g. by a parameter
a UNION ALL
a recursive SELECT statement that selects from the same, typically self-referencing table and joins with the recursive CTE being currently built up
This gives you the ability to recursively build up a result set that you can then select from.
If you look at the Northwind sample database, it has a table called Employees which is self-referencing: Employees.ReportsTo --> Employees.EmployeeID defines who reports to whom.
Your CTE would look something like this:
;WITH RecursiveCTE AS
(
-- anchor query; get the CEO
SELECT EmployeeID, FirstName, LastName, Title, 1 AS 'Level', ReportsTo
FROM dbo.Employees
WHERE ReportsTo IS NULL
UNION ALL
-- recursive part; select next Employees that have ReportsTo -> cte.EmployeeID
SELECT
e.EmployeeID, e.FirstName, e.LastName, e.Title,
cte.Level + 1 AS 'Level', e.ReportsTo
FROM
dbo.Employees e
INNER JOIN
RecursiveCTE cte ON e.ReportsTo = cte.EmployeeID
)
SELECT *
FROM RecursiveCTE
ORDER BY Level, LastName
I don't know if you can translate your sample to a proper recursive CTE - but that's basically the gist of it: anchor query, UNION ALL, recursive query
I'm having some trouble trying to get Microsoft Access 2007 to accept my SQL query but it keeps throwing syntax errors at me that don't help me correct the problem.
I have two tables, let's call them Customers and Orders for ease.
I need some customer details, but also a few details from the most recent order. I currently have a query like this:
SELECT c.ID, c.Name, c.Address, o.ID, o.Date, o.TotalPrice
FROM Customers c
INNER JOIN Orders o
ON c.ID = o.CustomerID
AND o.ID = (SELECT TOP 1 ID FROM Orders WHERE CustomerID = c.ID ORDER BY Date DESC)
To me, it appears valid, but Access keeps throwing 'syntax error's at me and when I hit OK, it selects a piece of the SQL text that doesn't even relate to it.
If I take the extra SELECT clause out it works but is obviously not what I need.
Any ideas?
You cannot use AND in that way in MS Access, change it to WHERE. In addition, you have two reserved words in your column (field) names - Name, Date. These should be enclosed in square brackets when not prefixed by a table name or alias, or better, renamed.
SELECT c.ID, c.Name, c.Address, o.ID, o.Date, o.TotalPrice
FROM Customers c
INNER JOIN Orders o
ON c.ID = o.CustomerID
WHERE o.ID = (
SELECT TOP 1 ID FROM Orders
WHERE CustomerID = c.ID ORDER BY [Date] DESC)
I worked out how to do it in Microsoft Access. You INNER JOIN on a pre-sorted sub-query. That way you don't have to do multiple ON conditions which aren't supported.
SELECT c.ID, c.Name, c.Address, o.OrderNo, o.OrderDate, o.TotalPrice
FROM Customers c
INNER JOIN (SELECT * FROM Orders ORDER BY OrderDate DESC) o
ON c.ID = o.CustomerID
How efficient this is another story, but it works...
