I'm trying to create calculated columns in a SELECT query (inside a sp) that are based on other calculated columns in the same SELECT list. But since I'm not allowed to refer to each calculated column by name, I'm forced to repeat long calculations every time I build one calculation based on another.
I'd like to do something on the order of:
SELECT Price*Quantity AS SalePrice, SalePrice*1.08 AS SalesPriceWithTax
FROM Orders
Access used to let me do that, but not SQL. Any suggestions? Can I use variables declared and assigned before I start my SELECT, and then put those variables in my SELECT list? Anyone have a useful shortcut?
TRANAMT being the amount paid & TOTBAL being the balance due per the NAMEID & RMPROPID specified.The other table includes a breakdown of the total balance, in a manner of speaking, by charge code (thru a SUM(OPENAMT) query of DISTINCT CHGCODE
Also with a remaining balance (per CHGCODE) column. Any alternative solution that would effectively split the TABLE1.TRANAMT up into the respective TABLE2.CHGCODE balances? Either way, I can't figure out how to word the queries.
Hi, It's a long story i'll try to make short, I am running a MDX query through Integration Services, this query is very very memory intensive, so intensive I get a System.outofmemory error. The workaround for this was getting the data in smaller ranges. this works fine in Management Studio.
select { many measures and calculated members} on columns, [Cuenta].[Cuenta].&[1]: [Cuenta].[Cuenta].&[10000] on rows from DB WHERE [Tiempo].[Mes].&[2007-09-01T00:00:00] : [Tiempo].[Mes].&[2007-11-01T00:00:00]
Now, in Integration services the optimal way of running a MDX query should be through an OLEDB source, but as it's stated in many sites around the web there is an error that hasn't been fixed. So I moved to a Datareder which is much slower, but works... kind of... to get the whole data out of the cube I am getting it in ranges which I should change with parameters, but MDX doesn't support parameters so I have to change the whole query using an expression.
Finally the problem with this is that the query I am running is longer than 4000 characters which is the limit for an expression on integration services. Here is when someone told me to shrink my query by using named sets, and this is what i don't know how to do, is there any way of grouping all the calculated members I have created in one named set or something alike.
I'd like to generate the calculated column SCORE based on various scenarios in the other columns. eg.
if n1<10 and n2<10 then i=i + 1 if n4-n3=1 then i=i + 1 if more than 2 consecutive numbers then i=i + 1
So, I need to build the score. I've tried the procedure below and it works as a pass or fail but is too limiting. I'd like something that increments the variable @test1.
declare @test1 int set @test1=0 select top 10 n1,n2,n3,n4,n5,n6, case when ( n1=2 and n2>5 ) then @test1+1 else @test1 end as t2 from allNumbers
I have this SP below, and I am trying to reuse the value returned by the Dateofplanningdate column so that I don't have to enter the code for each additional column I create. I have tried temp tables and derived tables with no luck.
I have an OrderDetails table, ShipHeader table and a ShipDetails table in my database. I am trying to add a couple of columns to my OrderDetails table. I need two additional columns in my OrderDetails that are calculated. One should be called "Shipped" and give me the sum of all the ship Qty records for theat line item. The other should be called "Returned" and do the same for the return records. I was able to create this in a View without a problem. However, I need a method of creating this table that will still allow me to edit the information in the other columns in the OrderDetail table while viewing the shipped and returned information for each line item. With a View, I cannot edit any of the information while viewing it. Should I use a function? A stored procedure? If so, how do I code this? The tables are listed below.
CREATE TABLE OrderHeader ( OrderID int identity primary key, Status int, StartDate datetime, EndDate datetime )--Use Type 1 = "Quote" Type 2 = "Cancelled" Type 3 = "Confirmed", Type 4 = "Shipped", Type 5 = "Part Shipped", Type 6 = "Part Returned", Type 7 = "Returned, Type 8 = "Mixed" CREATE TABLE OrderDetail ( OrderDetailID int identity primary key, OrderID int FOREIGN KEY REFERENCES OrderHeader(OrderID), ItemName varchar(30), Qty int, SiteID int, ) CREATE TABLE ShipHeader ( ShippingID int identity primary key, Type int, SiteID int, ActionDate datetime )--Use Type 1 = "Ship" Type 2 = "Return" Type 3 = "Lost" CREATE TABLE ShipDetail ( ShipDetailID int identity primary key, ShippingID int NOT NULL FOREIGN KEY REFERENCES ShipHeader(ShippingID), OrderDetailID int, Qty int )
Q: How do I use Calculated Columns from a Data Source View in an OLEDB Data Source Adapter.
I took the following steps:
- Created new SSIS project - Added a Data Source connecting to a SQLServer2005 DB (MyDataSource) - Added a Data Source View based on MyDataSource (MyDSV) - Created a Calcualted field to Table Object MyTable (MyCalcField) - Added a Connection Manager based on MyDSV - Added Data Flow to Project - Added OLEDB Source Adapter to Data Flow - Attempting to Access Calculated Field MyCalcField to be used in Data Flow.
ISSUE: I can't seem to find a way to get the Calculated field to pass through. It's as though this metadata is not available to the Flow.
Now I would like to sort these by using the Interactive sort functions - but I have seen elsewhere that this is not possible..(I'm also getting an error when trying..)Is there not a way that I can bypass this (using Code function or similar) ? The datasource for the data is a OLAP cube
What I want the eventually solution to be is that for each unique/distinct client, reference and sequence there is one record (row). Based on the row_number, I want the first 'AppearanceDate' renamed to 'AppearanceDate1' with the first AppearanceDate as the data and the first Outcome to be renamed 'Outcome1' with the first Outcome as the data. Any subsequent rows would follow as columns:
Only four AppearanceDates and outcomes are required based on the unique/distinct Client, Reference and SequenceIDs. How I can loop through the Appearances based on the row_number and show each record in one row?
Write a CREATE VIEW statement that defines a view named Invoice Basic that returns three columns: VendorName, InvoiceNumber, and InvoiceTotal. Then, write a SELECT statement that returns all of the columns in the view, sorted by VendorName, where the first letter of the vendor name is N, O, or P.
This is what I have so far,
CREATE VIEW InvoiceBasic AS SELECT VendorName, InvoiceNumber, InvoiceTotal From Vendors JOIN Invoices ON Vendors.VendorID = Invoices.VendorID
Case: Exporting Report to PDF/Printing/TIFF Report: Contains 1 table with 19 Columns. 1 column is static, the other 18 are visible at the users descretion. Report when printed/exported to pdf spans 2 pages naturally, 16 on the first page, 3 on the second, and the column widths have been adjusted to provide a perfect page span .
User A elects to hide two of the columns, and show the rest. The report complies and the viewable version is perfect, the excel export is perfect.. the PDF export on the first page causes every fith column, starting with the last column that was hidden to be expanded to take up additional width. On the spanned page, it renders the first column on that page correctly, then there is a white space gap equal to the width of the hidden columns and then the rest of the cells show with the last column expanded to take up the same width that the original 2 columns were going to take up, plus its width.
We have tried several different settings to see if it helps this issue or makes it worse. So far cangrow/canshrink/keep together have made no impact. It is not possible to increase the page size due to limited page size selection availablility for the client. There are far too many combinations of what the user can elect to show or hide to put together different tables to show and hide on the same report to remove this effect.
Any help or suggestion on this issue would be appreciated
I know you can't aggregate a calculated value and I'm having a problem finding a solution
I have 3 groups: Course(1), Term(2), Category(3). Course = a particular class (i.e) Algebra; Term = 1 iof 4 terms in our school year; Category = for a class, one may have multiple categories like, participation, homework, quizzes, test, etc.
A class can be weighted for a Category like homework and will count 20% of the grade, tests 40% of the grade and so on. For each Category, I calculate the weighted total using the following:
HiI am using Management Studio with SQL Server 2005 Express. I am trying to use the Calculated Column Specification by entering a formula.Every attempt results in the same error 'Error Validating the formula'Lets say I have 3 columns a,b, and cI wish to put a formula into c so that it becomes a/bCan anyone either help me with the syntax or point me a resource. I have googled without success. There seems to little or nothing out there on this topic.Thanks,Bill
A measure in a cube need to be divided by another measure as follows:
MEASURE1MEASURE2
Measure 1 (SUM of Money spent by each person) Measure 2 (Amount of Money available for each country per person). Example: USA: 155 Germany:134 France:143)
Measure1 is a SUM and works fine, but Measure2 should only be a distinct value for each country. So if person comes from Germany, then the SUM of Spent Money should be divided by 134.
I am a newbie to SQL Server using SQL Server 2000.
I am trying to use a calculated field in a table, what I want is for the result to be shown as an integer (int)? However the fields that I base the calculation on are of the type (money), and the calculted field although giving me the correct result makes the field of type (money).
The fields that I am basing the calculation on are:-
Hi... I'm trying to make a calculated member but I want it at the last level only, with the others I want that shows the sum of the previus :confused: .... Somebody can help me????
The above report would list 2 columns as Description & Amount, next it would sort the Description column by GL_ID, next by Year 2005 & lastly by Period 08, with a net figure of asset minus liability.
Guys, hope someone out there can help me with the sql command for the above report?
I have a location table with columns for [state tax rate], [local tax rate] and a bit column for each to indicate if it is active. From this I need to calculate a total tax percentage; i.e.(state tax rate * bit) +(local tax rate * bit). If I want to stay at the database with this I can identify three alternatives (I'm sure there are more): 1. Calculated column 2. Table Variable (or Temp. Table) 3. View
I'm interested in feedback as to which of these methods is more appropriate or if there is a better way I haven't identified.
This doesn't necessarily belong in this forum, but I'm starting here in the hopes of getting some direction.
Business users have asked me to "map" a spreadsheet to our Datawarehouse. The spreadsheet contains a lot of calculations.
I created a first pass, but it was difficult to map the Analysis Services cube data to the spreadsheet data and in the process I had to hard code a lot of things that will make the spreadsheet less flexible for additional data.
So my question is, where is the best place to put calculated fields. In my SQL Statements, in ths SSIS transformations, or in the Analysis Cube?
Any help, or pointers to more information, would be greatly appreciated.

I have a table and I need to have a calculated field which calculates GPA based on the letter grade they have, and only those grades that have subject as CHEM or BIO.
This may be an extremely simple question, but I am trying to combine two text fields (last name, comma, space and first name) into a new field that can be used as a GROUP in my report.
I have a reporting services report that I'm creating from an Analysis Services cube. I created two calculated memebers. When I put either one of the calculated members in the report and try to render the query or generate the report, I get an error: Memory Error: Allocation Failure: Not enough storage is avaliable to process this command. I have 21 GB of hard drive space.
I had made some calculated fields within my data set. Later I had to change my stored procedure. When I refreshed my data set my calculated fields disappeared. Is there a way to not lose your calculated fields in a dataset when you refresh it?
Ok I have three columns in my database that deal with ratings of individual ads. One is called totalrating, one is totalvotes, and one is averagerating. TotalRating gets incremented with the rating and totalvotes is incremented by one when someone votes. Then averagerating is a calculated column which divides the totalrating by the totalvotes. The problem is unless I manually set totalrating and totalvotes to 0, the stored procedure does not work. They both remain null. I tried to set the default value for each column to 0, which visual studio changed to ((0)). Maybe I am doing this wrong. If someone could help me I would really appreciate it. Thanks so much.

I need a calculated field C with several CASES. If (field A is 'daily' or 'half day' or 'hourly') and (field B is NULL) then C= D-50 If (field A is hourly and field B is NULL then C= 850I don't know sql server 2000 well enough to create this query.thanksMilton
Hi,I'm struggling to get a calculated column to work in sql, the fields to be calculated are:[AdRevenue_a] money[Admissions_a] int[DoorPrice_a] smallmoney[DoorSplit_a] moneyAnd the calculation I require is:(AdRevenue_a / ( (Admissions_a * DoorPrice_a) - DoorSplit_a )) * 100This is what I think it should be but it doesn't work...convert(decimal(6,2), ((AdRevenue_a / ((Admissions_a * DoorPrice_a) - DoorSplit_a))*100) ))Any suggestions??
