Better Method Than Joined Query Tables

Nov 27, 2007

Hello,

I'm working on a query for a report. I've done this before and it works, but I think it's a little slow due to the joins and I'm wondering if I'm doing this the best way.

This is from a Microsoft CRM system. I'm only using the LEAD table. There is a field on the lead table called StateCode. When a user "Qualifies" a lead, the statecode changes. The report requires a column for total leads, a column for # of leads qualified, and a column for % of leads qualified. There are other columns, but those three will illustrate the problem.

Because total leads means all statecode values are included, and Qualified leads means only one statecode value is included, I can't get those two values from the same query (that I know of). So what I do is take two queries, one for total leads, and one for qualified leads, put them in parenthesis and name them, and then join them on the name of the leadsource, like below. I often end up with 10 or 15 of these "Query Tables" in my main query. Is this the best way?





Code Block
SELECT * FROM
(
SELECT
LeadSource
, COUNT(CreatedOn)
FROM
Leads
GROUP BY
LeadSource
) as A

LEFT OUTER JOIN

(
SELECT
LeadSource
, Count(CreatedOn)
, Count(CreatedOn) / (SELECT COUNT(CreatedOn) FROM leads) AS "% of Leads Qualified from this Lead Source"
FROM
Leads
WHERE
StateCode = 2
GROUP BY
LeadSource
) as B
ON
A.LeadSource = B.LeadSource






Thanks,
Andy

Slow Query On Joined Tables

Sep 12, 2006

Hi!

I have 4 tables inner joined. Two of tables have ~500,000 rows, while other 2 have ~60,000. There are 4-5 WHERE conditions for 3 tables.
Is it normal that a query lasts ~13-15 seconds? I tried indexing in all ways, subselects, temp tables etc, nothing helped.

I think it is unuseful to use indexes because WHERE conditions apply not to one, but to 3 tables.

Is there anyone who is expert in this topic?
Thanx

Update Query When Joined Tables Are Involved

Sep 30, 2013

I have a query written that filters on joined table data. The SELECT looks like this:

SELECT *
FROM tbl_bol AS a LEFT OUTER JOIN
bol_status AS b ON b.bol_status_id = a.bol_status_id LEFT OUTER JOIN
tbl_carrier AS c ON c.carrier_id = a.carrier_id
WHERE (a.carrier_name LIKE 'five%') AND
(a.accrueamt = 0) AND
(a.imported = 1) AND
(b.description = 'tendered') AND
(a.ship_date BETWEEN '9/1/13' AND '9/30/13')
ORDER BY a.bol_number DESC

If I want to do an UPDATE query that uses those filters in the WHERE clause, how do I go about doing that? It doesn't look like you can used joined tables in the UPDATE line like this:

UPDATE tbl_bol AS a LEFT OUTER JOIN
bol_status AS b ON b.bol_status_id = a.bol_status_id LEFT OUTER JOIN
tbl_carrier AS c ON c.carrier_id = a.carrier_id
SET accrueamt='1348'
WHERE (a.carrier_name LIKE 'five%') AND
(a.accrueamt = 0) AND
(a.imported = 1) AND
(b.description = 'tendered') AND
(a.ship_date BETWEEN '9/1/13' AND '9/30/13')

Declaring A Table Variable Within A Select Table Joined To Other Select Tables In Query

Oct 15, 2007

Hello,

I hope someone can answer this, I'm not even sure where to start looking for documentation on this. The SQL query I'm referencing is included at the bottom of this post.

I have a query with 3 select statements joined together like tables. It works great, except for the fact that I need to declare a variable and make it a table within two of those 3. The example is below. You'll see that I have three select statements made into tables A, B, and C, and that table A has a variable @years, which is a table.

This works when I just run table A by itself, but when I execute the entire query, I get an error about the "declare" keyword, and then some other errors near the word "as" and the ")" character. These are some of those errors that I find pretty meaningless that just mean I've really thrown something off.

So, am I not allowed to declare a variable within these SELECT tables that I'm creating and joining?

Thanks in advance,
Andy



Select * from

(

declare @years table (years int);

insert into @years

select

CASE

WHEN month(getdate()) in (1) THEN year(getdate())-1

WHEN month(getdate()) in (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12) THEN year(getdate())

END

select

u.fullname

, sum(tx.Dm_Time) LastMonthBillhours

, sum(tx.Dm_Time)/((select dm_billabledays from dm_billabledays where Dm_Month = Month(GetDate()))*8) lasmosbillingpercentage

from

Dm_TimeEntry tx

join

systemuserbase u

on

(tx.owninguser = u.systemuserid)

where

Month(tx.Dm_Date) = Month(getdate())-1

and

year(dm_date) = (select years from @years)

and tx.dm_billable = 1

group by u.fullname

) as A

left outer join

(select

u.FullName

, sum(tx.Dm_Time) Billhours

Joining Two Joined Tables

May 15, 2002

Hi all -

Heres the deal,

I have six tables that are loosly related,

four in one join, two in the other....

in the first join there is a column called commentID -
and is based on a join of the four tables, the results of the
query is based on a where clause

and this needs to be tied into the second set of joined
tables (they are joined on a commentID themselves)

I have both the queries and joins working -

The primary query (4 joined tables) needs to do a lookup on the second (2 joined tables) and add its selected value, into the final result set....



thanks a million for the help!!

take care

Problem With Joined Tables

Feb 1, 2008

I posted Wednesday thinking a SELECT Distinct would solve my problem but it didn't. I have a stored procedure that is used to grab data from 4 tables that I need to join.
The 1st table (Application) holds a job applicant's name and some other data
The 2nd table (Jobs) holds the Job name and test type
The 3rd table (Locations) holds the locations
Then there is a foreign key many to many table (Application_Locations) that holds the applicants UserID and a LocationID. This table may have multiple rows for the same applicant with different locations in each row.

When the procedure is ran I want all the data that I am requesting from the Application table, and all the data that I am requesting from the Jobs table but only the 1st returned result of the Join on the Locations and Application_Locations table. What do I need to do to correct this so that I only display 1 row for each UserID no matter how many locations thay may have applied to. (You will notice that there are some IF statements so only the 2nd and 4th queries in the sproc are the ones that apply )

How To Specify A Row Filter On Joined Tables

Dec 7, 2006

I am using SQL Server 2005 to publish joined tables for SQL Mobile subscribers for merge replication and column level tracking.

Using Management Studio I am trying to join tables and specify row filters on the joined tables. I.E. table 1 is joined with table 2. I need to define row filters for table 1 and row filters specific to table 2.

An example would be: Table 1 is a customer table that I filter on a specific customer. Table 2 might be an orders table that I need to join to get the customers orders but I also want to filter for open orders only.

When I specify the row filter for table 2 the join appears to be ignored and I receive the complete table 2 with the row filter applied.

I have searched the online books and the web and I have not run accross an example of using both joins and row filters where the filters are specified for both joined tables.

Is this possible via the Management Studio?

Thanks,

Ron

Get Most Recent Data From Joined Tables??

Apr 25, 2008

Hello, i have this problem
Table1
tbl1
pcb varchar(30)serial varchar(30)result varchar(30)

tbl2:
pcb varchar(30)date_time varchar(30)result varchar(30) data1 varchar(30)data2 varchar(30),


what i need is query the tbl1 for a range of serials,get the pcb and for those pcb's query the tbl2 for data1,data2
The resultSet should be a join on the two tables, Columns {serial} from tbl1 and {pcb,date_time,data1,data2} from tbl2



Please follow my simple example:
Suppose tbl1 has these 2 records
tbl1 = pcb1,sn1,pass
pcb2,sn2,pass
pcb3,sn3,pass

tbl2= pcb1,date1,pass,dataX1,dataY1
pcb1,date2,pass,dataX2,dataY2
pcb2,date3,pass,dataX3,dataY3
pcb3,date4,pass,dataX4,dataY4
pcb1,date5,pass,dataX5,dataY5
pcb2,date6,pass,dataX6,dataY6



where date1 is the most recent date and date6 the least recent

Request:what i want is for serial>=sn1 and serial<=sn2,get the pcbs from tbl1(which are pcb1 and pcb2) and based on these, query the tbl2
for the other data but retrieve only most recent records.

The correct ResultSet should be

pcb1,sn1,date1,dataX1,dataY1
pcb2,sn2,date3,dataX3,dataY3

and not
pcb1,date1,pass,dataX1,dataY1
pcb1,date2,pass,dataX2,dataY2
pcb1,date5,pass,dataX5,dataY5
pcb2,date3,pass,dataX3,dataY3
pcb2,date6,pass,dataX6,dataY6

What i already did is this:


select max(CONVERT(DATETIME,tbl2.date_time,103)),tbl1.serial,tbl2.pcb
from tbl2
left JOIN tbl1
ON tbl2.Pcb=tbl1.pcb
where tbl1.serial>='1' and tbl1.serial<='53'
and tbl2."Result" like 'pass' and tbl1."result" like 'pass'
group by tbl2.pcb,tbl1.serial;


This works correctly for getting serial from tbl1, date_time and pcb from tbl2.But unfortunately i also need data1 and data2 columns from tbl2.
If i include them in the Select Clause i have to include them also in the group by ,and this gives me also duplicate records (by using this OR philosophy).I mean, it would give all records containing (pcb1,pcb2),much like my example


How can i resolve this issue?
Thank you very much

Four Tables Inner Joined - Select Associated Accounts

Feb 14, 2014

I have four tables (all inner joined) and currently they give me the results i need. However, my boss has now asked me to return all associated accounts as well.

I am currently pulling data from the four tables to make up my results table, and the returned results are based on the loan types in my loans tables having a loan type of '1A'

So if the loan type is 1A I get a result.

However, Mr Smith (for example) may have three loans but only one of them is type '1A'. The other two might be type '5H' and '2'.

What I need to be able to do is return all the associated accounts of any customer that has a type '1A' loan.

This is my code:

Select c.customernumber, l.accountsuffix, c.forename, c.surname, lt.code, l.balance, j.journeynumber from customers c
inner join loanagreements l on c.customerid = l.customerid
inner join loantypes lt on l.loantypeid = lt.loantypeid
inner join journeys j on c.journeyid = j.journeyid
Where j.journeynumber = 93
and lt.code = '1a'
and l.balance >0

Help With Blocking On Querying Two Joined Tables

Dec 8, 2005

I get a 90-120 second blocking when send 15 or so simultaneous queriesto SQL Server 2000 that query a view made up of two joined tables.After each query is blocking for the same amount of time they allreturn. Further identical queries of this type work in 3-4 seconds(caching?) until hours later where it happens again. If I query thetables directly (without the view) I still get the same blocking. If Iremove the join (it is a simple inner join on two columns) I do not getthe blocking.Any ideas?

Querying Joined Tables With 0 Results

Jan 18, 2006

This seems like a very simple question but i have never been able tofind an easy answer to it.I have a user table and i do a join with another table, we'll call theother table a results table.The results table has numerous rows with the userid foreign key.I want to make a query that will give me the number of rows in theresults table for each user where the result is some valueThe query is simple to make but will only show the users who have arecord in the results table the meet the where criteria, however i wantto display each user and show a record count of 0 when there are noresults in the results table that match the criteria.for example i have 2 tables.tblUsers_______________userid | username--------------------------1 | user12 | user2tblAnswers________________userid | answer----------------------------1 | 11 | 01 | 42 | 12 | 0if i run the query:select max(username), count(answer) from tblUsersleft outer join tblanswers on tblAnswers.userid = tblUSers.idwhere tblAnswers.answer = 4group by tblUsers.idi just getuser1 | 1i want to getuser1 | 1user2 | 0the only way ive found to do this is with a temp table and a curser tocreate all the users records and go back through an insert the answercount for each user. This approach seems very expensive and requires aquery that is 3 times larger than is needed for the same resultswithout including 0 count records. I know there must be a better way todo this.Any help is appreciated.

View With Aggregate Function And Joined Tables

Mar 2, 2007

I have created the following view:
 
Create view vwOrderItemTotal2
AS
SELECT ItemName, fkMenuItemID, Sum(Quantity) as [SumOfMenuITems] FROM OrderItems GROUP BY fkMenuItemId, ItemName
 
When I present my data in a GridView, it works fine.  For example, several orders for milk are returned as a summary quantity of 26 gallons in a single row of the GridView like this:
 
26 Milk
 
Now I need to filter my data by OrderDate and Zipcode.  I created this new view:
 
Create view vwOrderItemTotal5
AS
SELECT Orders.Zipcode, Orders.OrderDate, OrderItems.ItemName, OrderItems.fkMenuItemID, Sum(Quantity) as [SumOfMenuITems]
FROM Orders INNER JOIN OrderItems
ON Orders.OrderID = OrderItems.fkOrderID
GROUP BY fkMenuItemId, ItemName, Zipcode, OrderDate
 
When I present my data in a Gridview using the new view I get a GridView with multiple rows for milk where each order has its own row like this:
 
1 Milk
5 Milk
6 Milk
6 Milk
3 Milk
1 Milk
4 Milk
 
But I want the data presentation in one row for each ItemName (e.g. Milk) as with my first view.  Can I adjust my new view to achieve this, or should I stick with my first view (vwOrderItemTotal2) and adjust the Select Command in my SqlDataSource (hasn’t worked yet). 
I think that what I want is for the returned data to be grouped by fkMenuItemId only, but the sql server admin won’t let me create a view without including the other fields in the Group By clause.  Thanks for any help provided in solving this.

Placing Joined Tables On Separate Disks

Apr 7, 2008

I've read that if particular tables are frequently queried together through a join then these tables should be placed on different devices on different physical disks.
What does this mean exactly and how would you configure this?
Is this a common practice in high-performance real-world environments (or should it be)?

How To Update A Row Based On Left-joined Tables?

May 12, 2008

Each row of my datagrid comes from two tables, A and B, which are (left) joined: not every row from table A has a corresponding row in table B. I think this is quite a common scenario.If I want to edit a row in my datagrid which contains data from both Table A and Table B then presumably I can just use an UPDATE statement behind the scenes.But what happens if I want to edit a particular row in the datagrid which contains data from Table A but no corresponding data from table B? I can't use an UPDATE statement because the record in Table B doesn't yet exist. So what do I do?Does anyone know the answer to this, or could you point me to a good tutorial please?

Joined Tables - Count And Null Values

Jan 11, 2014

I joined different tables and got a result like this:

result | process | goal | date |
------- ---------- ------ -----------
ok | process4 | 1 | 12.10.2013
bad | process1 | 2 | 13.10.2013
ok | process1 | 4 | 12.12.2013
good | process4 | 1 | 03.01.2014
ok | process1 | 3 | 10.04.2013
bad | process3 | 6 | 09.01.2014
bad | process4 | 3 | 30.12.2013
best |NULL| NULL

Now I want to count the results by counting the processes and group them by the result.

But it should be count the latest result per process only, e.g. for goal "1" just "good" at 03.01.2014. I solved that with a subquery (date=SELECT MAX(...)..).

But now the result "best" disappears, because that column has no date.

Secondly I want to count results for a specific process, e.g. for process4. Every goal has max. one process, with different dates. But one process could have more than one goal.

I want to have this result for process4:

count | result
------ -------
1 | good
1 | bad
0 | ok
0 | best

But I got only:

count | result
------ -------
1 | good
1 | bad

I have tried a lot, but nothing works.

The whole result (best, good, ok, bad) are stored in an other table and I joined it.

Select Rows Separately From Two Joined Tables

Nov 5, 2014

I have a query which returns all parts and labour lines for a particular work order. It returns all parts lines seperately, but the labour lines are repeated for each row. What I want to accomplish for a given work order, is a list of all the parts lines, followed underneath by a list of all labour lines.This is the code from the report:

select
h.worknumber,
--- Select parts lines and charges
wp.description as [charges desc],
case
when wp.charge_to_cust = 1 then wp.sale_price

[code]...

For this example what I'd like to see is 5 lines here - the labour description and charge under charges description, unit price, qty and est_parts_sale etc, and of course, there could be more than 1 labour line.

Any Help With Returning The Last Instance Of A Multiple Version Record In Joined Tables?

Sep 28, 2007



We have an archive table which keeps each instance of a sales order that was archived under a "Verion No" field. Each time the sales order is archived it is entered into the archive tables (Sales Header Archive, Sales Line Archive). What I am trying to do is write a query to return all sales orders but only the most recent archived version.

For example this table layout is similar to what I am working with. Version No, Order No and Customer No. are the keys between the Header and Line tables, Customer Name column in the output is from only the Sales Header Archive table

SALES LINE ARCHIVE TABLE
Version No - Order No. - Customer No -----> (other columns)
1 s-5 1000

2 s-5 1000
1 s-6 2000

1 s-7 3000
2 s-7 3000
3 s-7 3000
1 s-8 4000
1 s-9 2000
2 s-9 2000


Here is what I need to output to show:

RESULTS OF JOINED TABLES
Version No - Order No - Customer No - Customer Name ---> (other columns)
2 s-5 1000 Something, Inc.
1 s-6 2000 Acme
3 s-7 3000 Company, LLC
1 s-8 4000 Blah & Associates
2 s-9 2000 Acme

It should return the last Version No of each Sales order.

Does that make sense? It is something probably easy... But, I've spent two days using multiples and multiples of different ways, that just aren't working: I'm about to dropkick my server cabinet...

Tables Joined On Multiple Columns, Exclude Records Found In Table A

Nov 7, 2006

I'm using SQL server 200

Table A has columns CompressedProduct, Tool, Operation

Table B in a differnt database has columns ID, Product, Tool Operation

I cannot edit table A. I can select records from A and insert into B. And I can select only the records that are in both tables.

But I want to be able to select any records that are in table A but not in Table B.

ie. I want to select records from A where the combination of Product, Tool and Operaton does not appear in Table B, even if all 3 on their own do appear.

This code return all the records from A. I need to filter out the records found in Table B.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SELECT ID, CompressedProduct, oq.Tool, oq.Operation FROM OPENQUERY (Lisa_Link,
'SELECT DISTINCT CompressedProduct, Tool, Operation FROM tblToolStatus ts
JOIN tblProduct p ON ts.ProductID = p.ProductID
JOIN tblTool t ON ts.ToolID = t.ToolID
JOIN tblOperation o ON ts.OperationID = o.OperationID
WHERE ts.ToolID=66
') oq
LEFT JOIN Family f on oq.CompressedProduct = f.Product and oq.Tool = f.Tool and oq.Operation = f.Operation

Lookup Tables Or Another Method?

Jul 11, 2007

I'm creating an application that will allow users to contribute "content". The content can be tagged, saved as "my content", etc... very web 2.0'ish. The site will rely very heavily on SQL Server 2005. By default, there is a Content table that simply stores the content with an identity column PK. There is also a Tag table and User table.
What is the most effective schema for speed and reliable scalability? Eventually there could be hundreds to thousands of people contributing and tagging content.
Idea 1: Lookup TablesSimply make a new table that holds the TagID and UserID. The table will be very important as it will be queried very regularly to show the users which tags they have stored.Pros: This will effectively allow me to store & query what tags the user has selected. It's simple to setup and the application won't have to work much with the data returned from the query.Cons: What happens when there are thousands of users tagging content? At what point does it become very inefficient to query a table that has a huge number of rows?
Idea 2: Comma Delimited ListSimply has a field in the user table that has a comma delimited list of TagID's the user has selectedPros: Keeps table size low, fairly easy to implement.Cons: Application has to perform more work. It has to separate the TagID's by comma, and requery the database to get each tags data, based on TagID.
Those are basically the only two methods I've really got experience using. The reason for this post is to see if there are methods that I'm not aware of that are better suited for what I'm trying to do.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated, thank you in advance!

Preferred Method Of Updating Tables?

Jul 31, 2015

Right now I am leaning towards joining a temp table that pulls my aggregates in and then joins them on metric id and year month. But I noticed my bosses boss who knows this stuff a lot more than I, seemed to do direct inserts dropping that whole range.

Same criteria but different approach. I like updating the new results and not dropping or deleting the contents. I like using temp tables too it makes it easy to just select into them and join off of them on the destination table that will be updated.

RDA Pull Method Not Creating Tables/inserting Data

Aug 7, 2006

I can't see what is going on, this is the situation:

I call the Pull method, specify the table to be affected, the query to be used, the connection string to the remote SQL server, the tracking options (On) and the Error table. The pull method executes with no errors however, no table is ever created. I don't know why, here's what I have done so far:

I read the SQL BOOKS ONLINE help on preparing RDA, I set up the IIS virtual directory for anonymous access and on the connection string I send in the user name and password for the SQL server, I went into the SQL Server and grated access to the user name to the database that I am going to access and I made the user a db_owner.

So, according to SQL BOOKS ONLINE I have everything right however, it won't populate, so right now I am open to suggestions on how to get this to work, heres the code:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
string rdaOleDbConnectString = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=<Server>;Initial Catalog=<DB>; User Id=<User>;Password=<Password>"; (it's not exactly like this, but in it has the proper values)
string connectionString = "Data Source="\Program Files\client\db\MobileDB.sdf"";

SqlCeRemoteDataAccess rda = new SqlCeRemoteDataAccess("http://10.1.1.206/mobile/sqlcesa30.dll",
connectionString);

IList _tableNames = new ArrayList();
IList _queries = new ArrayList();

############
Code that prepares tables and queries
############

for (int counter = 0; counter < _tableNames.Count; counter++)
{
rda.Pull(_tableNames[counter].ToString(), _queries[counter].ToString(), rdaOleDbConnectString, RdaTrackOption.TrackingOn, "MobileError");
}


the For loop runs with no problems but no data is ever put (or tables created) into the Mobile DB.

Best Query/Search Method

Nov 5, 2007

Hi,
I'm wondering about the following:
I have come across an InfoPath Forms application who's code is scripted in javascript and who's data seems to be in XML files.An analyst at that company told me they suspect the data is ALSO in SQL Server... somewhere.  They can't seem to find it though.  I havereviewed the .js code and some methods are called for which I can find no source.  I believe those methods execute OK because they're foundinside some DLL.
I'm thinking I would enter a new record using the form in InfoPath using some datavalue that I can expect will be unique.. like a lastname who's first three chars is ZZZ or something like that.  Subsequently, I'd search each column in each table in each DB on the server to see if I can locate it somewhere.
So, my question is what is the best approach for this?  I have access to the db, table and column names.  I know I can write a small vb.net piece of code to execute my search.  But, is there some better way using some sql procedure (or using the full text catalog) instead or any other tool(s)?  
Thanks in advance for your advise.
Stewart

SQL Statement - Where Not Joined

Aug 3, 2006

Help.

I have a table with a composite key (two primary keys) that is a foreign key to another table. I need to select all records in the primary key table where there are no matches in the foreign key table... I have no idea how to do this..

Here is how to join the tables:

Select A.Key1, A.Key2 From PrimaryKeyTable A, ForiegnKeyTable B Where A.Key1 = B.Key1 and A.Key2 = B.Key2

I need to query all records that do not join, so basically the inverse of this query. How do I do this? Please let me know if this is in the wrong forum or you need any clarifcation.

Just FYI, on a single Primary key column I would just simply do the following:

Select A.Key From PrimaryTable A, ForiegnTable B Where A.Key not in ( Select A.Key From PrimaryTable A, ForignTable B Where A.Key = B.Key)

but how to with a composite key?
