MS SQL Server :: Ordering Within Hierarchy

Ordering
Hi there!

We are experiencing a problem using order clause in the statement below:

SELECT
person.pkey
, first_name
FROM
person
, private_person
WHERE
fkey_person = person.pkey
AND first_name = 'A'
ORDER BY
first_name
, person.pkey

Where person table contains the following columns:

pkey, name etc

and private_person

pkey, fkey_person (indexed), first_name (indexed)

The output is:

STEP 1
The type of query is SELECT
FROM TABLE
private_person
Nested iteration
Index : i$private_person$first_name
FROM TABLE
person
Nested iteration
Using Clustered Index
pkey first_name
----------- ---------------------
2000512 A
10994 A
2299 A
1097 A
1218 A
5133 A
1329 A
1387 A
1465 A
7532 A
5513 A
1884 A
512 A
591 A

(14 row(s) affected)

STEP 1
The type of query is SETOFF

Why SQL server does not order by pkey? Is there any information about it somewhere? Is it a bug or what?

If we are ordering by fkey_person everything is Ok. Can anybody help?

Thanks a lot!

Kind Regards,
Vladimir

Ordering Ids
I have a table named as C1_Messages with fields Id, Messages, Dates.
My Id filed looks like this:
1000
1001
1008
1009
1084
1093
1098 etc.

But here I need to make these Ids in a order, means it sould be in a consecutive order. Like
1000
1001
1002
1003
1004
1005 etc.

So is there anyway to do this method in SQL?

Hierarchy
Hi to All!

Is there a perfect method to implement a hierarchy structure with different types as a table in Sql server 2005? Currently I am thinking of this way:

[Node | ParentId | ParentType | ChildId | ChildType]

But there is this nagging little voice saying it can be better

Cheers!

HIERARCHY HELP! PLEASE?
I have an Interesting situation that I'm hoping some of you experts can help me with basically I have the following hierarchy:

Net Profit
.....Gross Profit
..........Revenue
..........Direct Costs
.....Indirect Expense

Now, I have another hierarchy - separate from the above - that I need to assimilate to the hierarchy above - Example:

Expenses
.....Node a
..........Child a (Indirect Expense Type)
.....Child b (Direct Cost type)
Net Sales Adjustments
.....Child a (Revenue type)
.....Child b (Revenue type)

Depending on the type, the top most node needs to be assigned to the appropriate node in the initial hierarcy, like this:

Net Profit
....Gross Profit
........Revenue
................Net Sales Adjustments
....................Child a (Revenue type)
....................Child b (Revenue type)
........Direct Costs
...........Expenses
.................Child b (Direct Cost type)
........Indirect Expense
............Expenses
.................Node a
.....................Child a (Indirect Expense Type)

Now, I've been able to figure out how to assign the top most node and leafs if all the children have the same type (using the expan stored proc listed in the books online), but my question is on this portion:

Expenses
.....Node a
...........Child a (Indirect Expense Type)
.....Child b (Direct Cost type)

Basically, the answer is to work backwards - if a child has a type that is different than the other children, a copy of the hierarch (up to the child) needs to be made and assigned to the appropriate initial node.

I've tried modifying the expand stored proc to give me the lineage of the child and see if there's a way I can copy the node and place it appropriately - I'm brainfried at this point, and I'm hoping that someone outthere can point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance for your time

Ordering Dilemma
I have an int field - that will hold number for an ordering system. It's a databound field to a textbox in a grid, I want the default to be empty, however not all fields are required so i may have 1-6 as bound values, and the rest should fall in line behind them - the only thing i can think of to do is default the values to 9999 so they come after 1,2,3,4,5,6 etc... I don't like seeing 9999 in my bound fields.
thanks for any suggestions you may have.

Specific Ordering
Hi, I was wondering, I have several columns of data that are able to be sorted on - the user just clicks on the column name. However, we have 1 column called order status where we don't want the order to be alphabetical (and it is a text field - a couple current possible values are Processing...In Production...Waiting For Approval). This order is not good for logical sorting - we would want to be able to specify what value would get order. Does that make sense? So we would want to be able to say that Processing is first in the display, Waiting For Approval would be next, then In Production would be next, and so on. Is there any possible way of doing this in a SQL query? Or am I going to have to manually modify all the data adding numbers to the beginning of each data so that it will sort on the numbers? Thanks everyone.

Ordering By Date
Hi,I'm streaming data monitoring histories of components into a database table with the following three columns: Hour (DateTime), Id (Int64), and Value (Int32). The Value entry is an aggregate of all values sent from component Id during, and 59 minutes and 59 seconds after, the time listed in the Hour column.I had rather not have to sort the queries after pulling them from the database by date. So I tried to index the DB by the Hour column. Any column will inevitably have duplicates, since the uniqueness depends on a combination of Hour and PortId. But Indexing the Hour column doesn't result in INSERTs being in order as I had expected. Instead, every entry is listed in order of insertion.So. . .how can I keep such a table ordered by date on the disk? I'm afraid this will become very inefficient if this isn't nipped in the bud right now.Thanks so much for your help!-Brandon

Custom Ordering Top 20 ?

I want to create a top 20 product list from a few thousand products. I want the rest of the products to be grouped into 'others'...

I also want the products to be ordered by the facts in the cube. Thus the product dimension would dynamically change depending on the Time dimension thats being selected.

Advanced Ordering
Hello.
I want to order a resultset from a table by two columns in another table. Here's how it looks:

[Books]
ID
Title

[linkBookAuthor]
BookID (Books.ID)
AuthorID (Authors.ID)

[Authors]
ID
Firstname
Lastname
AuthorOrder

As you can see it's a many to many relationship. Is there a way to order the books by Authors.Lastname (the first if there are several authors) with one query ? If not, what is the fastest way ? I don't need the names in the resultset so I only want to order the books by Authors.Lastname, not include Authors.Lastname.

Thanks for any help.

Ordering By One Field Or Another
Is it possible without using CASE statements, to order a result set by one field (if the second field return value is null) or another (if the second field return value is not null)

This would be on datetime fields.
Let's say I have 5 records with 2 date fields
sched_dt and arriv_dt.

sched_dt will always have a value, arriv_dt may or may not have a value.

In a single result set I would like to have the records with an arriv_dt sorted by arriv_dt and the ones without an arriv_dt sorted by sched_dt.

*Hope that makes sense*

Ordering Dates
I have a table that has 4 dates for each record (birthday, anniversary, policy_start & policy_end). What I want to do is cycle through each record and then do some calculations using the gaps between the dates. So it
might be Calc1 using (birthday->anniversary), Calc2(anniverary->policy_start), Calc3(policy_start->policy_end), etc. BUT the dates might be in different orders (ie the birthday could come first - or the anniverary could, etc).

In VBA in Excel, I can use the SMALL function within my calcs and this returns the minimum date, the next smallest, the next & then the biggest. But how can I do this in SQL. I guess I can push the 4 dates out to a temp table, order it and then suck them back in - but I have no idea how to do this for all the records in my primary table

I've also tried using various WHERE statements (ie do Calc1 using Birthday & Anniversary WHERE Birthday < Anniversary and ........ - but the code gets awfully long.

Is it possible to write my own SMALL function which uses a bubble sort on the 4 dates & then returns the smallest, next smallest, etc

Any thoughts ?

Union Ordering
Hello,

I'm attempting to run three separate queries and have them returned as one recordset. I need to show the top 10 customers based on the number of orders they placed for each of three months, then combine them to give a representation of which customers have been within the monthly top 10 for the overall period of three months. My problem is when I run a count on the number of orders they have placed and order by that count, it is in ascending order which in escence shows me the bottom 10, not the top 10. To resolve this issue, I can specify descending order. This works fine with one query, but when I run all three queries using union statements, I can only have one order by which returns incorrect results. Here is my query. In this example, I get the combination of the three recordsets as expected, but each of the individual queries is not ordering descending, so I get the wrong end of the table. I am not bound to union, but do not know where to go. I do not believe I can use joins or concatenate queries because I have multiple where clauses. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please note that I am using a view to convert the cryptic field names which are used by a third party software tool into more friendly names. We will call this view Friendly_View for this example.

USE MyDB

SELECT TOP 10 CustName, Location, Phone, COUNT(Orders) AS TotalOrders
FROM Friendly_View
WHERE MONTH([Order Date]) = MONTH(GETDATE())-1 AND YEAR([Order Date]) = YEAR(GETDATE())
GROUP BY CustName, Location, Phone

UNION

SELECT TOP 10 CustName, Location, Phone, COUNT(Orders) AS TotalOrders
FROM Friendly_View
WHERE MONTH([Order Date]) = MONTH(GETDATE())-2 AND YEAR([Order Date]) = YEAR(GETDATE())
GROUP BY CustName, Location, Phone

UNION

SELECT TOP 10 CustName, Location, Phone, COUNT(Orders) AS TotalOrders
FROM Friendly_View
WHERE MONTH([Order Date]) = MONTH(GETDATE())-3 AND YEAR([Order Date]) = YEAR(GETDATE())
GROUP BY CustName, Location, Phone

If aCustomer does not have an entry, it is supposed to 'inherit' Globalrate data. A given Facility need not have an entry in the Rate table.If a Facility does not have an entry, it is supposed to inheritCustomer-specific rate data, and in the absence of an entry for theFacility's parent Customer, it is supposed to inherit Global ratedata.The challenge is that I want to write a view to give me back theappropriate rate record for Customer and Facility. Here's what I'vedone so far.View _Rate--------------SELECTRate.*,NULL AS TargetIDFROMRateWHERERate.OwnerID IS NULLUNIONSELECTRate.*,Customer.ID AS TargetIDFROMRateCROSS JOINCustomerWHERERate.OwnerID IS NULLOR Rate.OwnerID = Customer.IDUNIONSELECTRate.*,Facility.ID AS TargetIDFROMRateCROSS JOINFacilityWHERERate.OwnerID IS NULLOR Rate.OwnerID IN (Facility.CustomerID, Facility.ID)View view_Rate--------------------SELECT_Rate.*FROM_RateINNER JOIN(SELECTTargetID,MAX(OwnerLevel) AS OwnerLevelFROM_RateGROUP BYTargetID) AS Filtered_RateON_Rate.TargetID = Filtered_Rate.TargetIDAND _Rate.OwnerLevel = Filtered_Rate.OwnerLevelThe combination of these two views gives a resultset that contains 1record for every Target ID as follows:TargetID <NULL>OwnerID <NULL>OwnerLevel 1This indicates Global rate data established at the Global level.TargetID <Customer.ID>OwnerID <NULL>OwnerLevel 1This indicates Customer rate data for the specific Customer identifiedby Customer.ID is inherited from the Global rate data.TargetID <Customer.ID>OwnerID <Customer.ID>OwnerLevel 2This indicates Customer-specific rate data for the specific Customeridentified by Customer.ID (not inherited).TargetID <Facility.ID>OwnerID <NULL>OwnerLevel 3This indicates Facility rate data is inherited from the Global ratedata.TargetID <Facility.ID>OwnerID <Customer.ID>OwnerLevel 2This indicates Facility rate data for the specific Facility identifiedby Facility.ID is inherited from the Facility's parent Customer'sCustomer-specific rate data.TargetID <Facility.ID>OwnerID <Facility.ID>OwnerLevel 3This indicates Facility-specific rate data for the specific Facilityidentified by Facility.ID (not inherited).I know this is a lengthy post, and a complicted query scenario, butI'm not willing to accept that my solution is the best solution justyet. Please consider that I really need this functionality in a VIEWas much as possible.Thank you for your learned consideration.I eagerly await your replies.Darryll

Treeview Hierarchy With SQL And XML! Help!
I am trying to create a treeview structure with SQL and XML. This type of structure uses the typical Root->Folder->Item(Folder...Item) Windows Explorer type of Parent/child relationship. I am currently trying to use FOR XML EXPLICIT which requires you to define the shape of the XML document ahead of time. However, this type of structure is dynamic; you won't always know how many levels deep of nesting there will be.

Has anyone done this with SQL and For Explicit. Does anyone have any tips?

Thanks in advance for you help!

Dynamic Hierarchy
Hi people
In have a query over two tables, and the ouptut is:
RowID | SubMarcaID | MarcaID | ProductoID
1        | 1                 | 1            | 1
2        | 1                 | 1            | 2
3        | 1                 | 1            | NULL
4        | 3                 | 1            | 3
5        | 3                 | 1            | NULL

(SubMarcaID and MarcaID are the KEYS from SUBMARCA, and ProductoID is the key from PRODUCTO. Also SubMarcaID and MarcaID are foreing keys on PRODUCTO)

Now, I need a ParentRowID based on SubMarcaID and MarcaID, like a hierarchy

RowID | SubMarcaID | MarcaID | ProductoID | ParentRowID
1        | 1                 | 1            | 1               | 3
2        | 1                 | 1            | 2               | 3
3        | 1                 | 1            | NULL         | 0
4        | 3                 | 1            | 3               | 5
5        | 3                 | 1            | NULL         | 0
How can I do this?

Code Block

SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY PRODUCTO.MarcaID, PRODUCTO.SubMarcaID) AS RowID,

       PRODUCTO.SubMarcaID,

       PRODUCTO.MarcaID,

       PRODUCTO.ProductoID

FROM PRODUCTO, SGP_SUBMARCA

WHERE PRODUCTO.SubMarcaID = SUBMARCA.SubMarcaID

   AND PRODUCTO.MarcaID = SUBMARCA.MarcaID

GROUP
    BY PRODUCTO.SubMarcaID,

       PRODUCTO.MarcaID,

       PRODUCTO.ProductoID

WITH
ROLLUP

HAVING (

            GROUPING(PRODUCTO.ProductoID) = 1

        AND GROUPING(PRODUCTO.SubMarcaID) = 0

        AND GROUPING(PRODUCTO.MarcaID) = 0

       )

    OR (

            GROUPING(PRODUCTO.SubMarcaID) = 0

        AND GROUPING(PRODUCTO.MarcaID) = 0

        AND GROUPING(PRODUCTO.ProductoID) = 0

       )

Use Hierarchy From SSAS
Hello experts,

Last time I worked with SSAS and build a Cube. Because I€™m now very happy with the front-end excel 2003 or excel 2007 I thought I build my own Report with SSRS.
Now there is something I don€™t understand:
I build a Hierarchy in SSAS that a want to use in SSRS. Is there a chance to use it without any features? Have I to use parameters or something another?
In my opinion it makes any sense to build a hierarchy new, because it€™s already exists in SSAS.

Have a nice day
Alex

Graph Hierarchy: What Is It Exactly?!!
Hi everybody,
I've been reading the book MCITP Self-Paced Training Kit (Exam 70-441): Designing Database Solutions by Using Microsoft SQL Server(TM) 2005 (Self-Paced Training Kits) as a part of my preparation for exam 70-441
The book is really clear, and I could understand everything easily because I've some experience as a database developer.
Until now, there's only one thing that I didn't fully understand:
On pages 53 and 54, it mentions a type of hierarchy called: a graph hierarchy, and it gives a small example made the things even more complicated
I've many books about database design theories, but they don't use the term (graph hierarchy) any where...
So, I appreciate if you can point me to an online resource or a book that discusses this term thorougly.

Thank you

Hierarchy In Sql Server
Hello ,

I'm facing a complicated problem and I don't think that the solution will be an easy one.

I have an SQL statement in Oracle which I need to translate it in Sql Server 2005.

select lpad(' ',5*(orderid)) || to_char(descr) as menui
from <table _name>
where MENU_ITEM not in ('test1','test2','test3') and item_parent not in ('test4,'test5,'test6')
start with <item_parent='item_parent' >
connect by prior <menu_item = item_parent and menu_name='something'; > ?(condition)

Somewhere I have read that SQL server does not support Hierarchical Sql statements. Is this true ? How am I going to do that ?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you
