How To Automatically Populate A Field With A Value From A Previous Record?

Mar 16, 2008



Was wondering if there is easy anyway to autopopulate a field by pulling a value from a field in the previous record?

For example, I have a table with fields name "Dist_From" and "Dist_To". When I add a new record I would like it to populate the "Dist_From" field with the "Dist_to" value from the previous record.

TIA

Automatically Populate Application User Defined Field Based On Other Fields In Table

Nov 22, 2015

I am working with a vendor application called Cisco Unified Attendant Console - it operates on a Windows server with a SQL express database. The CUPs function of the application needs to reference a "contact" field with only the user portion of the contact's email address - generally, the contact's User ID will match the user portion of their email address, however, for this customer it does not (they use the employee number as the User ID and firstname.lastname as user portion of the email address.

Writing a script to accomplish the following:

The dbo.Contact_Properties table of the ATTCFG database has the following fields that we can work with:
 
- First_Name
 - Last_Name
 - Email
 - User_Field_2
 - Contact_Unique_Ref (appears to be the field that ties all other contact tables together ?)

Is it possible to create a script that could run daily to either, combine the First_Name and Last_Name fields (with a period between) and populate the User_Field_2 field for each user, or populate the User_Field_2 field with everything before the @ symbol in the Email field for each user?

Also, by default the servers that this application is installed on does not have SQL Server Management Studio installed - is it possible to accomplish with PowerShell script triggered from the Windows Scheduler?

Automatically Update Another Field Based On Other Parts Of The Record???

Feb 28, 2006

Sql is not a strong point with me so I'm just going to throw this out there. I have a stored procedure that updates the quantity in my 'CartItems' table. Is there a way to have something else happen within the stored procedure that will update another field based on other parts of the record? There is a 'lineTotal' field that I need to equal the 'pounds * itemSell' fields which are both fields within this record.
CREATE PROCEDURE UpdateCartItem(@cartItemID Int,@newQuantity numeric(9))ASUPDATE CartItems Set quantity = @newQuantityWHERE cartItemID = @cartItemIDGO

Value Of A Record Based On A Previous Record

Jul 20, 2005

I hope you can help me. I posted this in the microsoft sql server newsgroupa few days ago and got no response so I thought I'd try here. If I canprovide any clarification I'll be glad to do so.I'm trying to calculate a column based on the value of the previous record.I'm not very experienced with SQL-Server.I'm using the following table:CREATE TABLE tblPayment([PaymentID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,[LoanID] [int] NULL ,[PaymentPeriod] [int] NULL ,[PaymentRecDate] [datetime] NULL ,[PaymentAMT] [money] NULL)I have a view based on this table. That view has the following calculatedcolumnsBeginningBalance: For the first record, this is equal to the loan amountfrom the loan table. For each additional record this is equal to the endingbalance from the previous payment record.Interest: BeginningBalance * the monthly interest rate from the loantablePrincipal: PaymentAMT - InterestEndingBalance: BeginningBalance - PrincipalIt might seem I could use a subquery to calculate the Beginning Balance asin:SELECT LoanID, PaymentPeriod, PaymentAMT,(SELECT SUM(PaymentAMT) FROM tblPayment AS tbl1WHERE tbl1.LoanID = tblPayment.LoanID AND tbl1.PaymentPeriod <tblPayment.PaymentPeriod) AS BeginBalanceFROM tblPaymentWHERE (LoanID = @LoanID)But this will not work, because the interest is calculated on the previousmonth's balance. I need to find a way to loop through the recordset. Isthis possible?Thank you,--Derek CooperDatabase9www.database9.com

How To Reference A Previous Record

Mar 31, 2015

I have a query that shows me a list of what employees that are on site assuming that employee badged in correctly. My problem is I need to know when an employee has two entries in a row that are "In" without have an "Out" entry.

For example, if John badges in at 8:00 Am and leaves without badging out, when he arrives the next day at 8:00 AM and badges in the system simply would show him as in with no record of him ever leaving correctly.

I am not sure how to return the correct result. Can I formulate a query that would display a Who's In list where the previous entry was NOT and Out?

Getting Previous Record From Another Table

Apr 9, 2008

Hello

just wondering, if I can get help with a table (Table A) , where there are few dates and numbers, I have to relate this table to another table (Table B) , where I have whole year working dates

I want to write an expression while making dataset, that if date in table B matches table A, it just get the number from the next column from table A, if it does not matches - it should go back to the date (in table A) - where there is a number.

Like table B has working dates for march, but there are only two dates in table A , for 3/2 (and number is 300) and 3/20 (number 200). So In dataset I want all dates from table B and from 3/2 to 3/19 300 in number column and 200 on 3/20.

Thanks in advance for your help

Get Next Record In A Table Rather Than Previous

May 19, 2008

I'm creating a report in SSRS where we want to do a week-over-week or month-over-month analysis. We have each month and the metrics in a table. By sorting the table ascending, I can grab the previous record using the Previous function in a cell. However, when I order the table descending the previous record is not the correct record to get. In that case I want to grab the next record rather than the previous record. How can I invert the previous function? Or how can i grab the next record in the table rather than the previous?

Thanks!

Fast Way To Get Values From Previous Record

Jul 20, 2005

Hello,I know that I've seen this question asked on here before, but I can'tfind an answer that gives me the performance that I need.I have a table that stores events for users:CREATE TABLE Lead_Action_History (lead_action_seq INT IDENTITY NOT NULL,lead_action_date DATETIME NOT NULL,lead_seq INT NULL,operator_id VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL,call_time INT NOT NULL,CONSTRAINT PK_Lead_Action_History PRIMARY KEY (lead_action_seq) )GOThe table has a foreign key to another table through the lead_seqcolumn:CREATE TABLE Lead_Master (lead_seq INT IDENTITY NOT NULL,state CHAR(2) NOT NULL,CONSTRAINT PK_Lead_Master PRIMARY KEY (lead_seq) )GOI need to write a query that will give me a sum of call_time brokendown by a column that is in the table joined through the lead_seq.However, if the lead_seq for a row is NULL then I need to use thelead_seq for the previous row (based on lead_action_date) for the sameoperator.This is what I came up with:SELECT LM.state, SUM(call_time)FROM Lead_Action_History LAHINNER JOIN Lead_Master LM ON (LM.lead_seq = LAH.lead_seq)OR (LAH.lead_seq IS NULLAND LM.lead_seq = (SELECT TOP 1LAH2.lead_seqFROMLead_Action_History LAH2WHERELAH2.operator_id = LAH.operator_idAND LAH2.lead_seqIS NOT NULLORDER BYLAH2.lead_action_date DESC))GROUP BY LM.stateThe problem is that Lead_Action_History has millions of records andany solution that I've found involves one or more subqueries on itwhich kills performance. I am going to look at using a covering indexwith the solution above, but I thought that someone here might haveanother way of doing this.I can't really change the structure, but I can play with the indexing.I would still be curious though how other people model this type oftemporal data in a way that makes it easy to work with.Thanks!-Tom.

How To Check Previous And Next Record Values

May 22, 2008

Hi all,

I wanted to check the previous and next record values.

For example:

sKey NextKey PreviousKey

1 2 Null
2 8 1
8 5 2
5 null 8


Ex : In the first record of the table, the NextKey is pointing to 2.
So the next record of Skey will be 2. The Next Key for this record is 8. Like wise the next record of this should have the Skey as 8.

Now I need to check whether the NextKey and SKey are correct for all rows.

For that I need to check the previous record of "Next key" and next record of "Skey".

Any idea?

Regards
Helen

Populate Field From Another Table

Aug 20, 2007

I have 2 tables in a parent->child relationship. The primary key for the parent table is moving to a new column (that is an Identity). I'd like to relink the tables using the identity field.

Here's the structure:
Parent
refid int (Identity) - NEW PK
orderid char(9) - OLD PK

Child
orderdetailid int - PK
orderid char(9) - Old link to parent
refid int - New link to parent


I've populated refid in the parent. I just need to populate the refid column in the child. I have a VFP background. In VFP I would have looped through the child, found the matching record in the parent, then transfered the data over. I don' t have a clue how to do this in TSQL.

I am looking to update a record from a previous row. So if there is a value of total goods in week 1, i want that value to carry forward to the value of goods in week 2. Is there any SQL as an example of the best way to accomplish this? I can query it using lag() which works great but i need the source data itself to update as the end-users are accessing the data via lightswitch, so when they save a change, i want the trigger (or whatever you recommend) to update the source table.

Populate DB Field From List In “storage� DB

Aug 10, 2006

I am fairly new to SQL programming and would like to see if you can provide me with some direction on a small project I would like to accomplish. I have experience working with databases (mainly in with different versions of FoxPro) and reporting with Crystal reports, etc. but not much with SQL.

The project that I would like to work on has 2 SQL DBs and entails looking in a database for empty CLASSCODE fields, populate these fields from a “storage� database that contains un-used CLASSCODE codes and delete the assigned codes from the storage DB or mark them as used possibly the book code.

The main DB called books has the following relevant fields, bookid, bookname, CLASSCODE (besides a number of other fields which are irrelevant to what I need to do). The “storage DB called classcode has 3 fields, CLASSCODE, Used (single character intended to contain either a Y or NULL) and date assigned. The original idea was to put a Y in the used field and insert the date the code was assigned to a book, but this is not entirely necessary, we have 90k unused codes and it really does not matter if they are simply deleted from the DB.

My idea is to create a script to accomplish this that I can run periodically when new books have been added to the DB. I can setup the update routine (something like the list below) but what I am stuck with is trying to do the following:

Pick the first record (classcode) from the classcode DB
Go to the books DB and update it with this classcode
Go back to the classcode DB and mark the used record with a Y in the Used field
Loop though the books DB and perform the same operation until no more records exist with an empty classcode field.

I will greatly appreciate your feedback you can provide.

Mike.

UPDATE [dbo].[Books]
SET dbo.Books.Classcode = [dbo].[classcode].[classcode]
From dbo.classcode
On [dbo].[Books].[classcode]= [NULL]

Populate DB field from list in “storage� DB
