Add Calculated Field In Order Table Based On Price Column In Product Table
Nov 18, 2014I have 2 tables: Order(ID, Quantity) and Product(ID,Name, Price) and I want to add a calculated field in Order table based on the price column in the Product table. How do i do that?
this query returns the values i want in the table.
select a.quantity * b.price
from tblCustomerPurchases as a
join tblProduct as b
on a.ID=b.ID
ORDER BY (field In Foreign Table)
Apr 4, 2008Newbie question. Can someone show me an SQL statement that sorts the results of a query by a field in a different table?
CREATE TABLE `Table1`
(
`table1_id` INTEGER AUTO_INCREMENT ,
`table1_name` VARCHAR(255),
PRIMARY KEY (`table1_id`)
)
CREATE TABLE `Table2`
(
`table2_id` INTEGER AUTO_INCREMENT ,
`table2_name` VARCHAR(255),
`table2_table1` INTEGER,
PRIMARY KEY (`table2_id`)
)
ALTER TABLE `Table2` ADD FOREIGN KEY (`table2_table1`) REFERENCES `Table1`(`table1_id`);
What I'd like is something like:
SELECT * FROM Table2 ORDER BY "Table1(table2_table1).tabel1_name",table2_name
It's the section in double quotes that I can't figure out how to compose.
As an example, if Table 1 has
1, A
2, B
3, C
and Table 2 has
1, a, 2
2, b, 1
3, c, 2
then I'd like the sort to return
2, b, 1
1, a, 2
3, c, 2
TIA,
Stephen
Rearrange Rows And Columns
Apr 14, 2008I have a table with three columns:
AcctNbr, Type, CodeValue
Listed below is an example of the database.
Code:
AcctNbr Type CodeValue
1 MAILCODE 99
2 MAILCODE 99
3 MAILCODE 99
4 MAILCODE 90
4 MAILCODE 99
4 SEG1 O
5 MAILCODE 99
6 MAILCODE 99
7 MAILCODE 99
8 MAILCODE 99
9 MAILCODE 99
10 MAILCODE 90
11 MAILCODE 99
12 MAILCODE 99
13 MAILCODE 99
14 MAILCODE 99
15 LIST DS1
15 MAILCODE 99
There are multiple Type's for some AcctNbr's and what I want to do is
run a query on the database so that if the AcctNbr has multiple Type's
and CodesValue's it takes them and creates new columns like so:
Code:
AcctNbr MailCode_90 MailCode_99 SEG1
4 90 99 O
So on and so forth. There are multiple Type's and multiple codes that
I need to do this with for each account number. If someone could give
me a base code to try I could start somewhere. I am an SQL novice.
Thanks.

Analysis :: Order Of Rows In Tabular Table Not In Same Order Data Was Retrieved?
May 19, 2015I never paid much attention to this before but I noticed this today in a new table I was creating.
For tables defined in the tabular model the table properties have something like SELECT Blah FROM TableName ORDER BY Blah Then in the tabular model the table's data is in the same order it was ordered by in the data source for the table.
I have a date table I setup and I noticed it is NOT respecting the sort order.
I have it sorted by DateID which sorts with the oldest date first and newest date as last row.However, the table that is imported and stored in the data model is not in that order.
I can of course manually sort the rows in BIDS/DataTools, but I find this discrepancy odd.
Would this have negative impacts on the EARLIER function for example if the data rows are not in the order specified?
SQL Server 2012 :: How To Rearrange The Execution Plan Manually
Nov 27, 2014I have 2 tables,
1. Need
2. NeedCategory
Need table has clusted index on needid column and NeedCategory have composite clustered index on needid and categoryid.
Now take a look on following query and execution plan for the query.
SELECT N.NeedId,N.NeedName,N.ProviderName
FROM dbo.Need N
JOIN dbo.NeedCategory NC
ON nc.NeedId = n.NeedId
WHERE IsActive=1
AND CategoryId= 2
ORDER BY NeedName
* Clustered index scan on need table is happens for Isactive= 1.
* Clustered index scan on needcategory table is happens for CategoryId=2
My question is,
1. Why scan happens before the join occurs? if it happens after join then the filter would be lighter. Even if optimizer chooses the scan to execute first.
2. Is there any chance to rearrange the execution plan manually?
Default Sort Order - Open Table - Select Without Order By
Mar 27, 2008Hi!
I recently run into a senario when a procedure quiered a table without a order by clause. Luckily it retrived data in the prefered order.
The table returns the data in the same order in SQL Manager "Open Table"
So I started to wonder what deterimins the sort order when there is no order by clause ?
I researched this for a bit but found no straight answers. My table has no PK, but an identiy column.
Peace.

Order Of Nvarchar(50) Field
Jun 12, 2008In my SQL 2005 database table Records, I have 3 fields, field1, field2, and field3 which are all nvarchar(50) fields. The value of field2 is something like this, MDB006-MD002-0004-3-2007. I would like to order this field but only use the 0004-3-2007 part of the field to order it. Is it possible to put the last 11 charachters (0004-3-2007) in another field and then order it using this new field?

I'm still at the stage in this project were I can 'split' the field (if I have to) into first 3 and last 1. But the sort order of the last 1 is not alphabetic (I want 'L', 'A', "M").
Can I substitute a custom SortOrder some way ? (I've done that with mainframe Cobol).

ORDER BY &&<VarChar Field&&>
May 23, 2006Hi group,
I've got a table with two columns named [Year] and [Month]. They are both defined as VarChar.
Question:
Is it possible to ORDER THEM as if they where of type DateTime?
EG
select [year], [month]
from tbl_WeightedAverageGenerated
where [Year] = 2006
ORDER BY [Month]
Returns:
2006, 10
2006, 11
2006, 12
2006, 5
2006, 6
etc...
I need it to return:
2006 5
2006 6
2006 7
2006 8
2006 9
2006 10
2006 11

Equivalent Of ORDER BY [field] IN (…) In SQL Server
May 19, 2005Hi,
I have small question regarding ORDER BY clause.
I wanted some value of the fields should come first before other values….Something like:
+----------+----------------------------------------+
| code | name |
+----------+----------------------------------------+
| UK | United Kingdom |
| US | United States |
| AF | Afghanistan |
| AL | Albania |
| DZ | Algeria |
| AS | American Samoa |
I want to display country UK and US code first and then rest of the countries using SQL statement. I know in MySQL, I can use ORDER BY code IN (...)
--SQL
SELECT * FROM countries ORDER by code IN ('UK', 'US') desc
But not sure how can I do same thing in SQL Server. Is there any equivalent of ORDER BY [field] IN (…) clause in SQL Server???
Though I can create a new field something like sequence and use it to display these countries but I can not do that…
Please advice.
Thanks,
Firoz Ansari
Field Not Sorting In Ascending Order
Dec 30, 2005Hi, I've created a website usiing asp.net and all the data are stored in sql front. All the item are sorted in ascending order except one record.

3 Results From One Field - Show Levels In Right Order

Hi there
We have a web application (database) that uses one field called Application and another called TicketType.
When a user fills out a ticket they can choose up to 3 levels of this field.
Eg Application, Application2, Application3
Eg TicketType, TicketType2, TicketType3
The extra two levels not being compulsory.
I am using sql server 2005 // Reporting Services
My query is as below:
SELECT Ticket.TicketNumber, Ticket.CreatedDate, Application_2.ApplicationName AS Application, Application_1.ApplicationName AS [App 2],
Application.ApplicationName AS [App 3], TicketType_2.TicketTypeName AS Tickettype, TicketType_1.TicketTypeName AS [Type 2],
TicketType.TicketTypeName AS [Type 3], Ticket.Description, Company.CompanyName
FROM Ticket INNER JOIN
TicketType AS TicketType ON Ticket.TicketTypeID = TicketType.TicketTypeID LEFT OUTER JOIN
TicketType AS TicketType_1 ON TicketType.ParentTicketTypeID = TicketType_1.TicketTypeID LEFT OUTER JOIN

Stored Procedure To Update A Display Order Field.
Dec 20, 2006I am creating an app that allows the user to change the order of the list by changing a value in a displayOrder field. I'd love a button for move up /move down move bottom/move top and then pass that parameter to a stored procedure and it would renumber all the items in the list.
Example
ItemID description DisplayOrder Action0 item 1 0 Moveup/move down1 item 2 1 Moveup/move down2 item 3 2 Moveup/move down
So clicking on move up on item 2 would pass and itemID, Action and perhaps a list id to a stored proc and it would renumber the list. I'm assuming it would be done with a loop but I've never tried that.. suggestions?
Thanks - Mark

Selecting Field From Second Table If Same Field In First Table Is Null
Nov 25, 2007
Hi,
I have one table (PermProportionalCosting) that contains employeecode, costcentre and proportionpercentage. An employee may have two or more records in this table, indicating that their salary has been split across multiple costcentres.
Another table (Employee) contains a default costcentre for each employee.
Another table (TransActualHistoricalMaster) contains the hours paid to each employee for each pay period.
My query so far selects all employees and the total hours worked from the TransMaster table, and then selects the costcentre and proportionpercentage from the PermProportionalCosting table. Multiple lines are created for all employees in the PermProportionalCosting table, with each line indicating the proportionpercentage and associated costcentre.
This is my query so far:
SELECT TransActualHistoricalMaster.EmployeeCode, Employee.PreferredName, Employee.LastName, CostCentre.Description, PermanentProportionalCosting.CostCentreCode,PermanentProportionalCosting.PercentageSplit,
TransActualHistoricalMaster.OrdHours
FROM TransActualHistoricalMaster
INNER JOIN Employee ON TransActualHistoricalMaster.EmployeeCode = Employee.EmployeeCode
INNER JOIN CostCentre ON Employee.CostCentreCode = CostCentre.CostCentreCode
FULL OUTER JOIN PermanentProportionalCosting ON TransActualHistoricalMaster.EmployeeCode = PermanentProportionalCosting.EmployeeCode
GROUP BY TransActualHistoricalMaster.EmployeeCode, Employee.PreferredName, Employee.LastName, CostCentre.Description, PermanentProportionalCosting.CostCentreCode, PermanentProportionalCosting.PercentageSplit, TransActualHistoricalMaster.OrdHours
This next bit is what I am unsure of.
I would like the CostCentre field from the Employee table to go into the PermanentProportionalCosting.CostCentreCode column where the employee doesn't have a record in the PermanentProportionalCosting table. In the above query, there is a null value for each employee that doesn't have a record in the PermanentProportionalCosting table, so I would like my query to replace the null value with the costcentre from the Employee table.
Any assistance would really be appreciated.
Thanks.

FROM Table Order?
Oct 23, 2007I noticed that some queries against an mssql db require the tables in the FROM part of the statement to be in a particular order. Does anyone know why?
For example SELECT * FROM table1, table2, table3 WHERE <blah>
May throw an error (Unknown table table3 [I can't remember the exact verbiage of the error]), while simply rearranging the table order to:
SELECT * FROM table3, table1, table2 WHERE <blah> will work.
It seems like the error has something to do with how mssql handles the joins of the tables, but I can't seem to find any documentation about it.
