It seems an easy question but I am comparing a table contain random tables and columns with syscolumns
this query will give me the missing columns
select object_name(syscolumns.id) , syscolumns.name
from syscolumns
where not exists
(select 1
from CHECKINGTABLE
where object_name(CHECKINGTABLE.id) = object_name(syscolumns.id)
and CHECKINGTABLE.name=syscolumns.name)
and object_name(syscolumns.id) ='TAB1'
but in such way it will give me wrong results
select object_name(syscolumns.id) , syscolumns.name
from syscolumns , CHECKINGTABLE
where not exists
(select 1
from CHECKINGTABLE
where object_name(CHECKINGTABLE.id) = object_name(syscolumns.id)
and CHECKINGTABLE.name=syscolumns.name)
and object_name(syscolumns.id) =object_name(CHECKINGTABLE.id)
what I am doing wrong ? I want a query to compare a table I own with syscolumns to identify the missing data in my table
You could try the following. I do not have an ASE DB at hand but the syntax should be correct I hope.
SELECT syscolumns.id , syscolumns.name
FROM syscolumns LEFT OUTER JOIN CHECKINGTABLE
ON (CHECKINGTABLE.id = syscolumns.id
AND CHECKINGTABLE.name=syscolumns.name)
WHERE CHECKINGTABLE.name IS NULL

I'm attempting to update a table column based on the st_contains() results using two other tables. The code I've written below returns too many results. What do I need to change to make this work?
UPDATE "PRIMARY_USE_DESC"."CAD_Primary_Desc" SET "Parcel_Desc" = 'PARK'
WHERE (
SELECT geom_poly
FROM "Buda_Parks" t1
LEFT JOIN (
SELECT geom_point
FROM "HCAD_POINTS"
) t2 ON ST_Contains(t1.geom_poly, t2.geom_point)
) IS NOT NULL
Ok, I figured it out. Posting it here in case someone else has this question.
UPDATE "PRIMARY_USE_DESC"."CAD_Primary_Desc"
Set "Parcel_Desc" = 'PARK'
FROM
(select geom_poly from "Buda_Parks" t1
left join (SELECT geom_point FROM "HCAD_POINTS") t2 on ST_Contains(geom_poly,geom_point)) t3
WHERE ST_Contains(geom_poly, geom_point)
I’m doing a join between two tables in PostgreSQL, one has a primary key constraint on incidentnumber (opentickets) while the other table does not have the restraint and can have duplicate incidentnumbers (incommingtickets). The problem comes when trying to filter out duplicates. The query,
SELECT incommingtickets.*
FROM incommingtickets
LEFT JOIN opentickets
ON incommingtickets.incidentnumber = opentickets.incidentnumber
WHERE opentickets.incidentnumber IS NULL
AND incommingtickets.status NOT IN ('Closed','Cancelled', '')
works until it hits a duplicate, the I get the violates primary key message. If I add a distinct clause like,
SELECT DISTINCT ON (incommingtickets.incidentnumber) incommingtickets.*
FROM incommingtickets
LEFT JOIN opentickets
ON incommingtickets.incidentnumber = opentickets.incidentnumber
WHERE opentickets.incidentnumber IS NULL
AND incommingtickets.status NOT IN ('Closed','Cancelled', '')
I get an error,
pg_query(): Query failed: ERROR: missing FROM-clause entry for table
"incommingtickets" LINE 30: WHERE opentickets.incidentnumber =
incommingtickets.incident...
Use a WHERE clause that filters out the duplicates you don't want, although it's not very clear for me on why you want to join on a 'metric' such as number of tickets.
SELECT incommingtickets.*
FROM incommingtickets
WHERE incommingtickets.incidentnumber not in (
select
distinct
incidentnumber
FROM opentickets)
AND incommingtickets.status NOT IN ('Closed','Cancelled', '')
This way you are filetring out duplicates between both tables.
If what you want is to check or update the ticket's status of any tickets inside the opentickets table then try to get from the incommingtickets the maximum status like this:
WITH ticket_rows AS(
SELECT
rank() OVER (PARTITION BY ticket_id ORDER BY ticket_timestamp desc) as row_number,
ticket_id,
ticket_status,
ticket_timestamp
from incommingtickets
)
SELECT incommingtickets.*, opentickets_2.*
FROM opentickets o
LEFT JOIN ticket_rows ON ticket_rows.ticket_id= opentickets.ticket_id AND ticket_rows.row__number=1
If these are not your objectives pleae explain a bit better on what you are trying to achieve with that left join.
The query below returns 9,817 records. Now, I want to SELECT one more field from another table. See the 2 lines that are commented out, where I've simply selected this additional field and added a JOIN statement to bind this new columns. With these lines added, the query now returns 649,200 records and I can't figure out why! I guess something is wrong with my WHERE criteria in conjunction with the JOIN statement. Please help, thanks.
SELECT DISTINCT dbo.IMPORT_DOCUMENTS.ITEMID, BEGDOC, BATCHID
--, dbo.CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATEGORY_RESULTS.CATEGORY_ID
FROM IMPORT_DOCUMENTS
--JOIN dbo.CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATEGORY_RESULTS ON
dbo.CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATEGORY_RESULTS.ITEMID = dbo.IMPORT_DOCUMENTS.ITEMID
WHERE (BATCHID LIKE 'IC0%' OR BATCHID LIKE 'LP0%')
AND dbo.IMPORT_DOCUMENTS.ITEMID IN
(SELECT dbo.CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATEGORY_RESULTS.ITEMID FROM
CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATEGORY_RESULTS
WHERE SCORE >= .7 AND SCORE <= .75 AND CATEGORY_ID IN(
SELECT CATEGORY_ID FROM CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATS WHERE COLLECTION_ID IN (11,16))
AND Sample_Id > 0)
AND dbo.IMPORT_DOCUMENTS.ITEMID NOT IN
(SELECT ASSIGNMENT_FOLDER_DOCUMENTS.Item_Id FROM ASSIGNMENT_FOLDER_DOCUMENTS)
One possible reason is because one of your tables contains data at lower level, lower than your join key. For example, there may be multiple records per item id. The same item id is repeated X number of times. I would fix the query like the below. Without data knowledge, Try running the below modified query.... If output is not what you're looking for, convert it into SELECT Within a Select...
Hope this helps....
Try this SQL: SELECT DISTINCT a.ITEMID, a.BEGDOC, a.BATCHID, b.CATEGORY_ID FROM IMPORT_DOCUMENTS a JOIN (SELECT DISTINCT ITEMID FROM CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATEGORY_RESULTS WHERE SCORE >= .7 AND SCORE <= .75 AND CATEGORY_ID IN (SELECT DISTINCT CATEGORY_ID FROM CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATS WHERE COLLECTION_ID IN (11,16)) AND Sample_Id > 0) B ON a.ITEMID =b.ITEMID WHERE a.(a.BATCHID LIKE 'IC0%' OR a.BATCHID LIKE 'LP0%') AND a.ITEMID NOT IN (SELECT DIDTINCT Item_Id FROM ASSIGNMENT_FOLDER_DOCUMENTS)
I need help to optmize the SQL logic in one of my functions. Please, note that I am not able to use store procedure.
Here is my table. It will be initialized using #MainTable that contains a lot of records.
DECLARE TABLE #ResultTable
(
ResultValue INT
)
These are tables that stores some parameters - they can be emty too.
DECLARE TABLE #ParameterOne (ParameterOne INT)
DECLARE TABLE #ParameterTwo (ParameterOne NVARCHAR(100))
...
DECLARE TABLE #ParameterN(ParameterN TINYINT)
Now, I need to join a lot of tables to my #MainTable in order to select from it only some of its records.
The selected records depend on the information stored in the parameters table.
So, my current solution is:
INSERT INTO ResultTable(ResultValue)
SELECT ResultValue
FROM MainTable M
INNER JOIN #MainOne MO
ON M.ID=MO.ID
....
INNER JOIN #MainN MN
ON M.IDN=MN.ID
WHERE (EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM #ParameterOne WHERE ParameterOne=MO.ID) OR NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM #ParameterOne))
AND
...
AND
(EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM #ParameterN WHERE ParameterN=MN.Name) OR NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM #ParameterN ))
So, the idea is to add the records only if they match the current criteria from the parameters tables.
Because I am not able to use procedure to build dynamic query I am using the WHERE clause with combinations of EXISTS and NOT EXISTS for each parameter table.
The problem is that it works slower when I am adding more and more parameters table. Is there an other way to do this without using a lot of IF/ELSE statements checking what parameter table has records - it will make the function a lot bigger and difficult for read.
And ideas and advices are welcomed.
Good question.
Try the following one:
INSERT INTO ResultTable(ResultValue)
SELECT ResultValue
FROM MainTable M
INNER JOIN (SELECT * FROM #MainOne WHERE (EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM #ParameterOne WHERE ParameterOne=#MainOne.ID) OR NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM #ParameterOne))) MO
ON M.ID=MO.ID
....
INNER JOIN (SELECT * FROM #MainN WHERE (EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM #ParameterN WHERE ParameterOne=#MainN.Name OR NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM #ParameterN))) MO
ON M.IDN=MN.ID
Advantages:
Result of the JOIN is more quickly, because it does not process all data (it is already filtered)
It looks more simple for adjusting
I have a nested select query that is returning the proper amount of rows. The query builds a recordset and compares it to a table and returns the records in the query that are not in the table.
I converted the select query to an update query. I am trying to populate the table with the rows returned from the query. When I run the update query it is returning with zero rows to update. I dont understand why because the select query is returning record and I am using the same code in the update query.
Thanks
Select Query: (This is returning several records)
Select *
From
(SELECT DISTINCT
ProductClass,SalProductClass.[Description],B.Branch,B.BranchDesc,B.Salesperson,B.Name,
CAST(0 AS FLOAT) AS Rate,'N' AS Split
FROM (SELECT SalBranch.Branch,SalBranch.[Description] AS BranchDesc,A.Salesperson,A.Name
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT
Salesperson,Name
FROM SalSalesperson
) A
CROSS JOIN SalBranch
) B
CROSS JOIN SalProductClass
) C
Left Outer Join RateComm On
RateComm.ProductClass = C.ProductClass and
RateComm.Branch = C.Branch And RateComm.Salesperson = C.Salesperson
Where RateComm.ProductClass is Null
Update Query: (This is returning zero records)
UPDATE RateComm
SET RateComm.ProductClass=C.ProductClass,RateComm.ProdClassDesc=C.ProdClassDesc,
RateComm.Branch=C.Branch,RateComm.BranchDesc=C.BranchDesc,RateComm.Salesperson=C.Salesperson,
RateComm.Name=C.Name,RateComm.Rate=C.Rate,RateComm.Split=C.Split
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT
ProductClass,SalProductClass.[Description] AS ProdClassDesc,B.Branch,B.BranchDesc,B.Salesperson,B.Name,
CAST(0 AS FLOAT) AS Rate,'N' AS Split
FROM (SELECT SalBranch.Branch,SalBranch.[Description] AS BranchDesc,A.Salesperson,A.Name
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT
Salesperson,Name
FROM SalSalesperson
) A
CROSS JOIN SalBranch
) B
CROSS JOIN SalProductClass
) C
LEFT OUTER JOIN RateComm ON C.ProductClass=RateComm.ProductClass AND
C.Salesperson=RateComm.Salesperson AND C.Branch=RateComm.Branch
WHERE RateComm.ProductClass IS NULL
It's difficult to update what doesn't exist. Have you tried an INSERT query instead?
