I've written a query which was working fine prior to me trying to add a sub-query. I'm trying to make sure I am getting the max disconnect date for each account that has been issued a refund. When I attempt to run the modified query, I receive the following error:

Here's the whole query:

Why aren't we getting proper MAX(DOJ) value in Weird_Maxgroup Column in the below query ? Similar thing happens with MIN() function as well.

I have two tables that are joined on 1 column.
I want to update one table using an aggregate from the other table.
I could just update all rows even if the aggregate value has not changed, but I wondered if there was a way to only update the records where the aggregate has changed.
I tried this code but assigning the name m to aggreate gives an error
UPDATE t2 SET t2.ColumnB = SELECT MAX(ColumnB) AS m From Table t1
JOIN t2 ON t1.ColumnA = t2.ColumnA
WHERE t2.ColumnB <> m

Hi Guys,
I am having trouble with a particular query that is beyond my scope of understanding.
Basically I need to pull sales records based on the following criteria:
I have CustomerID, InvoiceNumber, ContractEndDate, MobileNumber, etc..
Customers recontract their mobile phone plans through us, and we have a new sales record for each time they recontract.
For example, CustomerNumber 123 has recontracted 3 times..
once on 2006-01-01, then on 2007-02-12, and finally on 2008-02-15..
So they have a 12 month contract each time.. then come in to recontract it.
So.. a customer has a single Customer Detail record, but may have many sales records attached. And a customer may have several sales for the SAME mobile phone number.
Currently to pull ALL sales records for all customers, my query is this:
Code:
SELECT xxx.CustomerID AS xxx_CustomerID,
xxx.Invoice AS xxx_Invoice,
yyy.PhoneType AS yyy_PhoneType,
yyy.PlanType AS yyy_PlanType,
yyy.ContractEnds AS yyy_ContractEnds,
yyy.MOB AS yyy_MobileNumber
FROM dbo.SaleControl xxx INNER JOIN dbo.SaleDetails yyy ON xxx.Invoice = yyy.Invoice
WHERE yyy.ContractEnds IS NOT NULL
AND xxx.CustomerID IS NOT NULL
We want to get a list of customers that we can call to recontract, based on the ContractEnd field.
However, we want UNIQUE mobile phone numbers, with the LATEST ContrtactEnd date.
So, Customer 123 has 6 sales, for 2 unique Mobile numbers, the sql may be like:
Code:
SELECT MAX(yyy.ContractEnds) AS LatestCED, yyy.MOB
FROM dbo.SaleControl xxx INNER JOIN dbo.SaleDetails yyy ON xxx.Invoice = yyy.Invoice
WHERE xxx.CustomerID='123'
GROUP BY yyy.MOB
Now, this works fine, and of course if i remove the WHERE clause, it collects all unique mobiles, with latest ContractEnd date for each, for all customers. (Customer 123 displays 2 mobile numbers, each with the LATEST ContractEnd date)
BUT i need this information ALONG WITH the other fields (xxx.CustomerID, xxx.Invoice, yyy.PhoneType, yyy.PlanType) and i have tried a few ways of doing it, but can't get my head around it..
Keep getting errors about Aggregate functions and Group By clause, and i understand why i am getting them, just cant think of any alternative query.
Can anyone please help me!
Thanks guys,
Mick

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am working with a vendor on upgrading their application from SQL2K to SQL2K5 and am running into the following.
When on SQL Server 2000 the following statement ran without issue:

WHERE Processed = 0 AND LegNum = 1
AND TrackID IN

GROUP BY dbo.Track_ID.TrackID
)
)
Once moved to SQL Server 2005 the statement would not return and showed SOS_SCHEDULER_YIELD to be the waittype when executed. This machine is SP1 and needs to be upgraded to SP2, something that is not going to happen near time.
I changed the SQL to the following, SQL Server now runs it in under a second, but now the app is not functioning correctly. Are the above and the following semantically the same?
UPDATE dbo.Track_ID

GROUP BY dbo.Track_ID.TrackID

GROUP BY TrackID

2 examples:
1) Rows ordered using textual id rather than numeric id
Code Snippet
select
cast(v.id as nvarchar(2)) id
from

select 1 id
union select 2 id
union select 11 id
) v
order by
v.id
Result set is ordered as: 1, 11, 2
I expect: 1,2,11
if renamed or removed alias for "cast(v.id as nvarchar(2))" expression then all works fine.
2) SQL server reject query below with next message
Server: Msg 169, Level 15, State 3, Line 16
A column has been specified more than once in the order by list. Columns in the order by list must be unique.
Code Snippet

union select 11 id
) v
cross join (

order by

,u.id
Again, if renamed or removed alias for "cast(v.id as nvarchar(2))" expression then all works fine.
It reproducible on

In both cases database collation is SQL_Latin1_General_CP1251_CS_AS
If I check quieries above on database with SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS collation then it works fine again.
Could someone clarify - is it bug or expected behaviour?

Hi,
What is HAVING clause equivalent in the following oracle query, without the combination of "GROUP BY" clause ?
eg :
SELECT SUM(col1) from test HAVING col2 < 5
SELECT SUM(col1) from test WHERE x=y AND HAVING col2 < 5
I want the equivalent query in MSSQLServer for the above Oracle query.
Also, does the aggregate function in Select column(here the SUM(col1)) affect in anyway the presence of HAVING clause?.
Thanks,
Gopi.

another thing...
if we put AND d1.ImplicitID = d1.ImplicitID condition in second query then shall we remove

but i want to include additional columns like id and date for the result
but its giving this message:
Column 'supplier.id' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.
is there a better way to do so without joining the main table with the upper select query?

I need to get the sum of a field that already has an aggregate function (MAX) performed on it. I am using the following query
Code Snippet
SELECT "tI"."ItemID", MAX("vSS"."ShortDesc") "Short Description",
MAX("tPCT"."FreezeQty") "Freeze Qty", SUM("vSS"."QtyOnHand") "Current Qty",
"tPCT"."BatchKey"

LEFT OUTER JOIN "tPCT" "tPCT"
ON "vSS"."ItemKey"="tPCT"."ItemKey"
WHERE "vSS"."ItemID" = '3002954'
GROUP BY "tI"."ItemID", "tPCT"."BatchKey"
It yields the following results
ItemID

129
42244
3002954
SET, WRENCH HEX METRIC

42250
I need to SUM the maximum freeze quantity values per item ID. Therefore for this record, I need the following results:
3002954 SET, WRENCH HEX METRIC -13 129
Can this be done via a subquery? Any assistnance would be greatly appreciated?

Hi,
I have we have a client who gives their invoices in a flat file format, we import it into a SQL Server table.
Nothing is normalized – everything is repeated in every record. The fields are:
customerNumberInvoice_numberPO_numberQtyDescriptionLine_numberLine_totalFreightTaxInvoice_date
So an if an order has 10 line items, the header information (invoice number, PO number, ivoice date) are repeated on each of the lines
I am writing a query to show the following
Order number, Invoice total, Date
select invoice_no, sum(line_total + freight + tax) as invoiceTotal, customerNumber, Invoice_date from invoices group by invoice_no, Invoice, customerNumber
This works great - for each invoice I get the invoice number, InvoiceTotal, and Date
Then I was asked to add the PO Number – this is where I can’t get it right.
When I added “PO_number� to the query, I got two lines for each invoice
select invoice_no, sum(line_total + freight + tax) as invoiceTotal, customerNumber, Invoice, PO_number from invoices group by invoice_no, Invoice, Sold_To_Cust_No, PO_number
Please help - I need to end up with: invoice_no, invoiceTotal, customerNumber, Invoice_date and PO_number (sequence does not matter)
Thanks

I have a table that is used for employee evaluations. There are six questions that are scored either 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. I want to tally the responses on a page, but I wonder if I can do it without 35 separate calls to the database (I also want to get the average response for each question). I know I can do "SELECT COUNT(intWorkQuality) AS Qual1 FROM dbo.Summer_Project_Req WHERE intWorkQuality = '1' " and then "SELECT COUNT(intWorkQuality) AS Qual2 FROM dbo.Summer_Project_Req WHERE intWorkQuality = '2' " and so on. But can I somehow do the aggregating at the page level, and just refer back to a datasource that uses a generic statement like "SELECT intWorkQuality, intDepend, intAnalyze, intWrite, intOral, intCompatibility FROM dbo.Summer_Project_Req"? If I can, I am not sure what type of control would be best to use or what syntax to use to write the code-behind. I would like the results to be displayed in a grid format. Thanks in advance for your help.

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat I'm trying to solve:
I have an application that generates SQL queries, and sometimes uses
DISTINCT where the result set has no dupe rows. In terms of database
resources, I'm trying to figure out if it's worth it to change to app to be
smart enough to not use DISTINCT where it won't serve any purpose, or
whether to let it do the DISTINCT and save added complexity to the query
building application. I.e. what is the cost of DISTINCT where there are no
dupe rows?
What I want to know:
Can someone explain how the stream aggregate operator actually goes about
doing its work?
Does this always create a temp table for sorting and discarding duplicates
(for DISTICNT)? If the answer is "no or sometimes", how does it do so in
the case where a temp table is not involved? I noticed the the estimated
I/O for this operator was zero for some queries I wrote agains pubs. Does
this mean that the optimizer believes the temp table needed will fit
in-memory and creates it in-memory? Or does the estimated I/O figure not
included disk writes for work tables?
tia for any info

Hello,
I was told that on Oracle there's something called an Aggregate Navigator which should be capable of changing the table you're addressing in a query to another table (with aggregate data) and in this way optimize performance in a data warehousing environment.
Is there anything similar in MS SQL Server?

does anyone have an idea of how to achieve that result?
