Need help in SQL Query: Update a row in a table & insert the same row into another table

I want to update a row in a table say Table A and the updated row should be inserted into another table say Table B. I need to do it in a single SQL query and i don't want to do it in PL/SQL with triggers. And i tried with MERGE statement but its working with this scenario. (Note: I'm using Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0).
Thanks in Advance.

Using Sven's code as an example, you could save the updated row in a sql plus variable. (also untested):
SQL> var v_id number
update tableA
set colB='ABC'
where colC='XYZ'
returning id into :v_id;
insert into table A_History (ID, colA, colB, ColC)
select id, ColA, ColB, ColC
from tableA
where id = :v_id;

Need help with SQL Query with Inline View + Group by

Hello Gurus,
I would really appreciate your time and effort regarding this query. I have the following data set.
Reference_No---Check_Number---Check_Date--------Description-------------------------------Invoice_Number----------Invoice_Type---Paid_Amount-----Vendor_Number
1234567----------11223-------------- 7/5/2008----------paid for cleaning----------------------44345563------------------I-----------------*20.00*-------------19

4653456----------11223--------------7/5/2008-----------paid for cleaning------------------------35654765--------------------I---------------------30.00-------------19
Please Ignore '----', added it for clarity
I am trying to write a query to aggregate paid_amount based on Reference_No, Check_Number, Payment_Date, Invoice_Number, Invoice_Type, Vendor_Number and display description with Invoice_type 'I' when there are multiple records with the same Reference_No, Check_Number, Payment_Date, Invoice_Number, Invoice_Type, Vendor_Number. When there are no multiple records I want to display the respective Description.
The query should return the following data set
Reference_No---Check_Number---Check_Date--------Description-------------------------------Invoice_Number----------Invoice_Type---Paid_Amount-----Vendor_Number
1234567----------11223-------------- 7/5/2008----------paid for cleaning----------------------44345563------------------I-----------------*10.00*------------19

The following is my query. I am kind of lost.
select B.Description, A.sequence_id,A.check_date, A.check_number, A.invoice_number, A.amount, A.vendor_number
from (
select sequence_id,check_date, check_number, invoice_number, sum(paid_amount) amount, vendor_number
from INVOICE
group by sequence_id,check_date, check_number, invoice_number, vendor_number
) A, INVOICE B
where A.sequence_id = B.sequence_id

Data from two tables in the same row in XML transformation

Hi,
I am using XML transformation for generating excel file which is to besent as email attachment.

Hello Brian,
Thank you for your answer. It is approach I will use, I think. However let me ask: Would it be possible to have a Version in this layout, too? I mean to see, which value comes from Version A and which comes from Version B? Something like this:
Calendar Month Version Sales Amount
2011.01 B 200
2011.02 B 300
2011.03 A 260
2011.04 A 230
2011.05 A 200

Hi All,
I'm facing a problem deleting a row from a table where the condition lies in other table. To ealaborate the scenario further let's say I have two table T1 (transaction table) and T2 (Master Table). I want to delete a record from table T1 by checking some conditions lies in table T2.
I tried with the below query but this query deleting records from both the table.
DELETE FROM ( SELECT * FROM T1 top INNER JOIN T2 tp
ON top.TID = tp.TID
WHERE top.DEAL_SITE_ID = inputparameter1
AND (TP.SEGMENT <>inputparameter2 OR tp.segment is not null));
Here the record is getting deleted from both the tables but I don't want to delete data from my master table i.e table T2.
Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

employee_num
employee_date
table employee_form should contain the exact data like employee_list .
if there are missing data i'm inserting it to table employee_form_miss(missing).
now i have a probelm cause the compair between the two table,take place
more then just one time.now if there are still missing data i don't want that to table employee_form_miss will insert the same data that already exist in this table.
i've been thinking about constraints table employee_form_miss(employee_id
employee_name
employee_num
employee_date).
but i think it will be a wird way to handle this because i will do an insert
and then what rollback? or delete?
please help me how to manage this
thanks in advance.

i'm using an embedded sql in cobol program

i'm doing open and fetch to the cursor.
and loop over the sqlerrd(3) result in order to insert them to the employee_form_miss table
insert into employee_form_miss (employee_name,employee_num,employee_date)
values (:employee-name,:employee-num,:employee-date)
the employee_id in table employee_form_miss there is a trigger which
Increment the sequence by 1 for each row that we insert.
so my question was that if i'm doing a constraint, so still i have to do
an insert and then if there is a constraint to do rollback or delete
from duplicate row. is there a better way to manage this ?

Need Help in SQL Query

Hi all,
I have data in the following manner:
CASE_NUMBER HOURS FLAG
1000 10 0
1000 20 0
1000 30 1
1000 40 0
1000 50 1
Here I need to Calculate the total hours for a Case_number till i see the flag as 1.
Here the result must be 10+20+30 Hrs
Another Example
CASE_NUMBER HOURS FLAG
2000 10 1
2000 20 1
Here the result must be only 10.
I am struggling to write a SQL query for this.
Anyones help will be very much greatful
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Sengathir Subbarayan

Look up analytical functions.
something like sum(hours) OVER (PARTITION BY case_number ORDER BY something)
will give you the sum for all rows.
Then you probably want to "throw away" those rows after the flag maybe by summing the flag column too, and throw away all those where the flag is greater than 1 and where it is equal to 1 except for the first one.
I suspect you actually have some other column (other than the number of hours) that define your order - that's what you put in the ORDER BY.

Any pointers/help is appreciated
Thanks
Edited by: user9327712 on Mar 11, 2010 8:14 AM

I have a table where the ids are stored.
*"object name"* column values are actually another table columns stored as rows here. So in our example prop_num, city,Misc 1, Misc 1 desc, Misc 2, Misc 2
desc,Misc 3 , Misc 3 desc are all columns. These would not change any time
The column object_value has values stored for respective columns.
436, dallas , 90 , min amount , 700 , interest amount are all column values. So these can change.
id object_name object_value
10 prop_num 436
20 city dallas
40 Misc 1 90
50 Misc 1 desc min amount
60 Misc 2 700
70 Misc 2 desc interest amount
80 Misc 3
90 Misc 3 desc

Complete novice needs help getting SQL Query into Crystal Reports XI

Post Author: MissMarnie
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
So I was given an intro level web course and a monster reference guide in prep to format a report. One of our developers wrote me everything I need for the report into a SQL Query and now I'm supposed to format it in CR XII literally do not know what to do from here. I'm able to set up the correct server as a datasource, if that's useful, but I don't know how to make the querey into a bunch of formattable fields in CR. If anyone can walk me through this, I'd be so grateful. I've attempted to look up SQL query in both the help and the book but I keep hitting a wall. The help dialog says things like "press this button" with no reference to what "this button" is. I'm sure it's obvious to the knowledgeable but I'm in a complete fog. Thanks in advance

IF you're trying to get assistance with setting up a query as the source for a report, try posting your Crystal version and the database type.
Different software works differently.
In CR 9 and above, under the connection to the database you'll see Add Command. Select that and you can paste the query in.
As for not knowing how to generate a report, that requires experience, there's no generic solution of course..

Need help with SQL Query

I am trying to build a query that sums up 12 columns depending on some accounting variables.
example:
SELECT gbmcu, gbco, gbfy,'',SUM(gban01 gban02 gban03 gban04 gban05+gban06+gban07+gban08+gban09+gban10+gban11+gban12) AS Oil_Volumes
FROM PRODDTA.F0902
WHERE GBCO = '00099'
AND GBFY = 5
AND GBLT = 'QU' AND GBOBJ = 5015 AND GBSUB = '105'
GROUP BY gbmcu, gbco, gbfy
The condition that changes is :AND GBLT = 'QU' AND GBOBJ = 5015 AND GBSUB = '105'
I need to do this for 17 different conditions - I need to make the query as optimized as possible.
I tried using a case statement but that takes forever (the table is over 4 million records to scan through).
Please let me know if anyone has any suggestions on how to create something to perform these calculations.
thanks,
Pam

I think I would tend to write that query as:
SELECT gbmcu, gbco, gbfy,
       SUM(CASE WHEN gblt = 'QA' AND gbobj = 5015 AND gbsub = '105' THEN
                gban01+gban02+gban03+gban04+gban05+gban06+gban07+gban08+gban09+gban10+gban11+gban12 END) Oil_Sales
       SUM(CASE WHEN gblt = 'QU' AND gbobj = 5015 AND gbsub = '105' THEN
                gban01+gban02+gban03+gban04+gban05+gban06+gban07+gban08+gban09+gban10+gban11+gban12 END) Oil_Volumes
FROM proddta.f0902
WHERE gbco = '00099' and
      gbfy = 5 and
      gblt IN ('QA', 'QU') and
      gbpbj = 5015 and
      gbsub = '105'
GROUP BY gbmcu, gbco, gbfySUM the CASE rather than CASE SUM. Also, as written, your query will look at all of the records in f0902 whether or not they meet one of the Case criteria, so I would put the required values in the WHERE clause as well. Your samples only show gblt changing, so you may need to make the gbpbj and gbsub predicates IN lists as well.
If the query runs in 1.5 hours calculating one value, I would expect it to be about the same calculating 17 values, since I would bet that most of the run time is accessing the table rather than doing the math. It would almost certainly be faster than running essentially the same query 17 times.
Indexes on some or all of the columns in the WHERE clause may help, depending on how selective the columns are. At a guess, I would suggest that gbco and gbfy would be good candidates.
Finally, are you sure that gbsub is a character field? The only example we have is a number.

Need help with sql query dates

Hi,
I have a sql query where i need to extract some info between given dates. The where clause of this query is as follows:

Please suggest how to rewrite the query.

Can you please give it a try?

In the above table the Summary column has the details like 'Ping fail' , 'Ping restore' for each Node. So, for each Node I have to compute the Total Ping Fail / (Total Ping Fail + Ping Restore) * 100 to compute the availability %.
My output should be like the below

My Oracle Table has the following dataThat's great, but if you want maximum response to your question, then post CREATE TABLE + INSERT INTO statements.
I currently do not have the time to turn your data into them.
And always post the database version you're using.
http://tkyte.blogspot.com/2005/06/how-to-ask-questions.html
Also use the {noformat}{noformat} tag in order to post examples that benefit from staying formatted and thus readable when posted on the forum.
Simply put the tag before and after your examples.
For example, when you type:
{noformat}select *
from dual;{noformat}
it will appear as:select *
from dual;

Need help writing sql query

i am trying to write sql query for a single recordset.
I have an items table with all the standard item info and an item_colorID.
i have a color_lookup table with 2 columns, item_colorID and color_ID
i have a colors table with 2 columns, color_ID and color
i want to join the tables and filter it so that a repeat region shows dynamic data of item name, description, thumb, price
and also a list/menu dynamically populated by color
filtered so that each item shows in the list/menu only the colors that the item has available.
i have tried different variations of this sql
SELECT * FROM items INNER JOIN color_lookup ON color_lookup.item_colorID = items.item_colorID INNER JOIN colors ON colors.color_ID = color_lookup.color_ID WHERE items.itemCatID = 3 ORDER BY items.itemName
but the list/menu shows every color choice multiplied by the number of items in that color
ie White will show 80+ times.
thanks for your help,
jim balthrop

bregent,
thanks for your help.
I am building a shopping cart and i have a recordset to list the items and a repeat region for that recordset
i have a second recordset for the colors joined to the item_colorID nested inside the repeat region.
the shopping cart software has a 'lookup from recordset' choice for the add to cart servior behavior
and then i bind to the columns on the cart page.
it produces this code
if (isset($totalRows_rs_itemscat3) && $totalRows_rs_itemscat3 > 0)    {
    $row_rs_itemscat3 = WAEC_findRecordMySQL($rs_itemscat3, "item_ID", $ATC_itemID);
    if ($row_rs_itemscat3)    {
      $ATC_itemName = "".$row_rs_itemscat3['itemName'] ."";// column binding
      $ATC_itemDescription = "".$row_rs_itemscat3['itemShortDesc'] ."";// column binding
      $ATC_itemWeight = floatval("".$row_rs_itemscat3['itemWeight'] ."");// column binding
      $ATC_itemQuantity = "".$_POST["Farrington_1_Quantity_Add"] ."";// column binding
      $ATC_itemPrice = floatval("".$row_rs_itemscat3['itemPrice'] ."");// column binding
      $ATC_itemThumbnail = "".$row_rs_itemscat3['itemThumb'] ."";// column binding
      $ATC_itemcolorchoice = "".$row_rs_colors['color'] ."";// column binding
      mysql_data_seek($rs_itemscat3, 0);
      $row_rs_itemscat3 = mysql_fetch_assoc($rs_itemscat3);
the column binding for the colors is from a different recordset and when redirecting to the cart page the color info will not show.
So my thinking is if i could get the color list/menu to populate from the same recordset as the item listing, it would solve my add to cart server behavior.
Is it possible to do this with only one recordset?
the products page and the cart page can be seen
http://www.farrington-enterprises.com/rain-gutters.php
add an item to the cart with any color choice and the color info does not carry to the cart.
