For example, the table below, has a foreign key (ManagerId) that points to EmployeeId (primary key) of the same table. -------Employees table-------- EmployeeID . . . . . . . . . . int Name . . . . . . . . . . . nvarchar(50) ManagerID . . . . . . . . . . . int
If someone gave you an ID of a manager, and asked you to get him all employee names who directly or indirectly report to this manager. How can that be achieved?
There is a table with the id and categories Parentid. The challenge is this: you need to collect in each category one drain all the ID that concern it. For Example:
I have a table called ADSCHL which contains the school_code as Primary key and other two table as
RGDEGR(common field as SCHOOl_code) and RGENRl( Original_school_code) which are refrencing the ADSCHL. if a school_code will be updated both the table RGDEGR (school_code) and RGERNL ( original_schoolcode) has to be updated as well. I have been provided a new data that i have imported to SQL server using SSIS with table name as TESTCEP which has a column name school_code. I have been assigned a task to update the old school_code vale ( ADSCHL) with new school_code ( TESTCEP) and make sure the changes happen across all 3 tables.
I tried using Merge Update function not sure if this is going to work.
Update dbo.ADSCHL SET dbo.ADSCHL.SCHOOL_CODE = FD.SCHOOL_Code FROM dbo.ADSCHL AD INNER JOIN TESTCEP FD ON AD.SCHOOL_NAME = FD.School_Name
I have one table that has unique id's associated with each row of information. I want to delete rows of information in one table that have a unique ID that references information in another table.
Here is a basic breakdown of what I am trying to do:
Table1 (the table where the rows need to be deleted from) Column_x (Holds the id that is unique to the various rows of data - User ID)
Table2 (Holds the user information & has the associated ID) Column_z (holds the User ID)
I tried this on a test set of tables and could not get it to work. What I am trying to do is skip all rows of Table1 that have ID's present in Table2, and delete the rows of ID's that are not present in Table2.
Code:
SELECT Column_z FROM dbo.Table2 DELETE FROM dbo.Table1 WHERE Column_z <> Column_x
This did not seem to do what I needed, it did not delete any rows at all.
I wanted it to delete all rows in Table1 that did not have a reference to a user ID that matched any ID's in Column_z of Table2
Then I tried another scenerio that I also needed to do:
Code:
SELECT Column_z, Column_a FROM dbo.Table2 DELETE FROM dbo.Table1 WHERE Column_z = Column_x AND Column_a='0'
'0' being the user id is inactive so I wanted to delete rows in Table1 and remove all references to users that were in an inactive status in Table2.
Neither one of the Queries wanted to work for me in the Query Analyzer when I ran them. It just said (0) rows affected.
Using SQL Server 2000...I wrote a wrapper to call a sub proc (code provided below). Theintended varchar value returned in the output parameter of each procis a string implementation of an array.(The string separates elements by adding a period after each value.e.g. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. etc., although my simplified example only createstwo elements.)My vb.net calling code parses the returned string into individualelements.I TESTED BOTH PROCS FIRST:The wrapper returns 'hello' when I test it by insertingSELECT @lString='hello'before the GO, so I believe it is called properly.The sub_proc returns the "array" I want when I call it directly.THE PROBLEM: When I call the wrapper, and expect it to call sub_proc,it returns a zero.In fact, when I assign a literal (like 'hello') to @lString insub_proc, 'hello' is not returned.So the wrapper is not calling the sub_proc, or the sub_proc is notreturning an output value.OR...I have read about some issues with OUTPUT string parameters beingtruncated or damaged somehow when passed. I doubt this is theproblem, but I'm open to anything.I want to use the wrapper because, when it's finally working, it willcall several sub_procs andreturn several output values.Any thoughts?

I am working on a model where I have a sales fact table. Each fact record has four different customer fields (ship- to, sold-to, payer, and bill-to customer). I have one customer dimension table that joins to the sales fact table four times (once for each of the customer fields above). When viewing the data in Excel, I would like to have four hierarchies (ship -to, sold-to, payer, and bill-to customer) within Customer.
Is there a way to build hierarchies within my Customer dimension based on the same Customer table? What I want is to view the data in Excel and see the Customer dimension. Within Customer, I want four hierarchies.
CREATE TABLE Folder ( iD int NOT NULL IDENTITY (1, 1) PRIMARY KEY, folderName varchar(50) NOT NULL, parentFolderID int NULL FOREIGN KEY REFERENCES Folder (iD) ) GO
if I add an ON DELETE CASCADE to the foreign key, then i get an error... which is annoying. If a folder is deleted, then all its sub-folders should also be automatically deleted.
The error is: 'Introducing FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK__Folder__parentFo__7D78A4E7' on table 'Folder' may cause cycles or multiple cascade paths. Specify ON DELETE NO ACTION or ON UPDATE NO ACTION, or modify other FOREIGN KEY constraints.'

I've developed a package that is working well at development machine from VS 2013 for a sample flat file. Also, over development machine, I've deployed it to SSISDB catalogue and even from there also it is running well for the same file.When the same package is deployed to production server's SSISDB catalogue database, it throws following error while processing the same sample flat file, “Unable to retrieve column information from the flat file connection manager”
I have an Employee table that has EmployeeID (PK) SupervisorID (which is really just another EmployeeID) ..random junk...
Now that part makes sense, everyone gets one and only one boss.
Their boss can change, and therefore the SupervisorID would be updated.
Now I have an EmployeeEvals table that has quarterly evaluation data.
I want to relate these two tables.
Eval table has EvalID (PK) ReviewedEmployeeID (the one being evaluated) SupervisorID (the one doing the evaluation)
Now I need to link this back to the employee table (at least I think I do).
So I would want to relate it by the ReviewedEmployeeID going back to EmployeeID in the employee table and I also want the SupervisorID to do the same...
But of course that won't work because that would seem to indicate that a single record on the Employees table (say EmployeeID 55) should have a matching (or could) record in the Eval table that would look like EvalID: 12345 ReviewedEmployeeID: 55 SupervisorID: 55
which of course wouldn't happen as an employee wouldn't evaluate themself.
How do I handle the relationships for this properly?
Do I just not link the SupervisorID back to anything?
I've recently finished an application for a small company with perhaps two hundred employees. Each employee was set up in a Users table in the database, against which application logins were processed.
For just about every other table in the database, other than pure lookup tables, we created columns to indicate the user who created the entry, and the user who last modified the entry. This was done using FK references back to the Users table. Each table contains two references back to the Users table, and there are over 150 tables now that follow this scheme. At first I was not concerned, other than the fact that it makes a visual picture of the data model look very confusing (almost every table has a pair of links back to the Users table), until I encountered an issue where I could no longer delete from the Users table. Upon surpassing 253 FK references to Users, I can no longer delete users, as the Query Optimizer can't complete the query.
Now, all of that so far is really not a big deal. Deleting users was never my intent anyway. The only real question I have is whether this is the standard way of maintaining history for table records. Have others used this method? Is there a better way?

CREATE TRIGGER Update_ID ON TableA INSTEAD OF UPDATE AS IF UPDATE(ID) BEGIN DECLARE @old_ID INT DECLARE @new_ID INT
SELECT @old_ID = ID FROM DELETED SELECT @new_ID = ID FROM INSERTED
UPDATE TableA SET ID = @new_ID WHERE ID = @old_ID
UPDATE TableA SET RefID = @new_ID WHERE RefID = @old_ID END
SPROC: UPDATE TableA SET ID=6 WHERE ID=2
RefID is the FK to ID ID is also the PK to another table and has the relationship use cascading Delete and Update.
Problem: "The UPDATE statement conflicted with the SAME TABLE REFERENCE constraint" This is referring to the first UPDATE of the Trigger. It was my understanding that Instead Of checks the constraints after it is all done yet it errs with the first Trigger UPDATE. I was expecting to overcome the self-reference constraint issue by using Instead Of and with the first Trigger UPDATE, change the ID(PK) and then change the RefID(FK) with the second Trigger UPDATE. Once that was done, it should have not had any constraint problems. Thoughts?
We are in the conversion process of making the database ints.This is a change from a guid PK to an integer based PK that uses an int Identity. The program still uses the guid, and we are trying to map that guid to the databases int.We insert using TVPs passed from code. Since the identity is being set upon insert I have three things to accomplish:
1) Insert all the data into the dbo table 2) Update the parent Id in the table 3) Pass the SetsId guid, Sets_Id int, ParentSets_Id int back to the program
This is a high transaction table that will have a lot of records (millions).
--Sample table creation. There is a FK between Sets_Id to ParentSets_Id, Clustered PK on the Sets_Id IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[JSets]') AND type in (N'U')) BEGIN CREATE TABLE [dbo].[JSets]( [SetsID] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL, [Sets_Id] bigint Identity (1,1) NOT NULL,
Hi everybody, I know that it is possible for one column to reference two different parent tables by defining two foreign keys on a same column, I have done it and SQL Server does give any error. But I want to know that is it advisable to define multiple foreign key on a column referncing two differnt parent table's primary key in differnt case... ? Means If Case 1 then It should reference to column1 or table1 otherwise it should reference to table2? How is it practicle...?
An example of what I am talking about is the employee table in the Adventureworks database. This has employeeID and then ManagerID, ManagerID just being the EmployeeID of the person whom the original reports to.
I know the queries for querying this type of data and even making recursive common table expressions. What I cannot seem to find is how one goes about BUILDING said table. I see all sorts of examples where people are just doing INSERT table VALUES () manually to load the table. The problem is, I need to create a table that has potentially thousands of records.
It will essentially be a dimensional map. Don't even get me started as to they why, I will just suffice to say that is what the client and project want . I have a process that will do this now, but it is not very dynamic and very hard coded. To me, there seems like there should be some sort of standardized methodology for handling this.
I have the following problem running an sp with a table variable (sql server 2000) - the error which occurs at the end of the query is: "must declare the variable @THeader" . @THeader is the name of the variable table and the error occurs with such references as @THeader.ApplyAmt, @THeader.TransactionHeaderID, etc.
declare @THeader TABLE ( TransactionHeaderID [int] NOT NULL , PatientID [int] NOT NULL , TransactionAllocationAmount [money] NOT NULL , ApplyAmt [money] NULL ) - create table variable
insert into @THeader select TransactionHeaderID,PatientID,TransactionAllocationAmount,ApplyAmt from mtblTransactionHeader where PatientID = 9 - fill the table variable
UPDATE @THeader set TransactionAllocationAmount = (SELECT isnull(Sum(mtblTransactionAllocation.Amount),0) FROM mtblTransactionAllocation where mtblTransactionAllocation.DRID = TransactionHeaderID or mtblTransactionAllocation.CRID = TransactionHeaderID) from @THeader, mtblTransactionAllocation - do the updates on the table variable
Update @THeader set ApplyAmt = (SELECT mtblTransactionAllocation.Amount FROM mtblTransactionAllocation where mtblTransactionAllocation.DRID = TransactionHeaderID and mtblTransactionAllocation.CRID = 187 and PatientID = 9) from @THeader, mtblTransactionAllocation - do the updates on the table variable
- below is where the problems occur. It occurs with statements referencing columns in the table variable, i.e. @THeader.ApplyAmt
UPDATE mtblTransactionHeader SET mtblTransactionHeader.TransactionAllocationAmount = @THeader.TransactionAllocationAmount, mtblTransactionHeader.ApplyAmt = @THeader.ApplyAmt FROM @THeader, mtblTransactionHeader WHERE @THeader.TransactionHeaderID = mtblTransactionHeader.TransactionHeaderID - put the values back into original table

I have a table named 'DepartmentItem' which is designed with hierarchy structure. The column 'ParentId' from table DepartmentItem indicates parent-child relationship and department root among records. I have written and run a user-defined function I use recursive approach, but the function runs slowly.
My question: is there a better way to query that hierarchy table instead of using recursive?
** The current user-defined function that is written using recursive:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnGetDepartmentTree ( @departmentItemId int ) RETURNS TABLE AS RETURN with DepartmentItemTree(DepartmentItemId , DepartmentItemTypeId , ParentId, ItemOrder, Level)
[code].....
** And definition of table 'DepartmentItem' :
DepartmentItemId int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, ParentId int NULL, -- Each department root starts when this column is NULL or the current row is department root. If it is not NULL then the current row has ParentId whose record has DepartmentItemId = ParentId of the current row (see more below) IsActive bit NOT NULL DEFAULT ((1)),
I have a table "t_prod_cat" which contains hierarchical data which is used in production to present data.

In order not to impact the production website during the time an advertiser is editing (the editing might take much time and also mainly because at any time during the editing, the advertiser could cancel all the changes he did), I was thinking of transferring all the data linked to that advertiser to another table and let the advertiser apply any modifications up to the moment he will commit the changes.
Therefore, I would like to "CLONE" the hierarchy related to a certain advertiser_id to another table "t_prod_cat_work"
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[t_prod_cat_work]( [temp_cat_node_id] [bigint] NOT NULL, [temp_cat_hid] [hierarchyid] NOT NULL, [advertiser_id] [bigint] NOT NULL ) ON [PRIMARY]
What can be the easiest way to clone all the hierarchical data (multi-levels) from 't_prod_cat' to 't_prod_cat_work' for a certain advertiser_id ?

I'm creating a new Integration Services Project that copies data out of a SQL 7 server, transforms it, and places the data on a SQL 2005 (SP 2) Server. When defining a lookup transformation, if I specify an OLE DB Connection to my server running SQL 7 as the reference table, as soon as I click on the Colums tab, Visual Studio closes / crashes and dumps me to windows. I don't get an error message. If however I specify a connection to a server running SQL 8, or SQL 2005, no problems.
Is this supposed to happen?

I have been trying to convert an existing table that used adjacency list model (parentid,childid) to a table that use hierarchy Id type. So early on, I notice my original data does contains multiple roots. So I took a step to create dummy nodes to ensure all nodes fall into a single root structure. Another important fact is that each child node can have multiple parents.
My original source table contains 22461 records, when running the query below step 2 produces explosive number of records around 175,000+ records. I spent hours study the result and couldn't understand what actually causing this, I ran it against small set of test data I didn't seem the issue caused by child with multiple parents.
select * from SourceTable -- produces 22461 records
--step 1: first, get row number of child records in each parent
SELECT ChildID,ParentID, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY PARENTID ORDER BY PARENTID) as Num INTO #RelationshipTmp FROM SourceTable;
I'm attempting to load some data into an explicit hierarchy in MDS 2012 via the staging table and struggling with the HierarchyName field. Specifically I'm loading data into stg.[Entity Name]_Consolidated and using the exact name of the explicit hierarchy I've set up in the front end web application.
Originally my hierarchy was labelled "Reporting Hierarchy" and when loading the data into staging using this name then running the batch from the Import Data screen I can see the error message "Error - The HierarchyName is missing or is not valid.". I've checked the table mdm.tblHierarchy and can see that the name there is exactly as it was in the staging table and have since renamed the hierarchy as "Reporting_Hierarchy" with the same results.
