Aggregate function in native query (EJB 3.0)
How do you run a aggregate function in a native query? I have a particular use case, for reporting purposes, where the result set is too large to fetch the actual CMP collection, thus I need to execute a native count/avg select. I want some thing like,
Integer totalRecords = (Integer)
em.createNativeQuery("select count(*) from records").getSingleResult();
Oracle is intelligent enough to use index only if query result filtering is based on it and result set is less than 5% of the total data set.Sorry to be blunt but that 5% stuff is nonsense.
Here since the index column is not used in the WHERE clause, oracle performs full table scan.That's not true either. Under the right circumstances the optimizer can use the index, even without a WHERE clause in the query:
SQL> create table t as select * from dba_objects where object_type is not null;
Table created.
SQL> alter table t modify object_type not null;
Table altered.
SQL> create index t_idx on t(object_type);
Index created.
SQL> explain plan for
2 select object_type, count(*) from t group by object_type;
Explained.
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time |
| 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 44 | 396 | 60 (7)| 00:00:01 |
| 1 | HASH GROUP BY | | 44 | 396 | 60 (7)| 00:00:01 |
| 2 | INDEX FAST FULL SCAN| T_IDX | 72474 | 636K| 57 (2)| 00:00:01 |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------With the OP's query, it (apparently) can not be satisfied by using only the index.
WHERE TO_CHAR(COL) = TO_CHAR(COL)I don't even know what this means. Usually if you perform a function on an indexed column, the optimizer will not use the index (unless of course it's an fbi).

Any difference between distinct and aggregate function in sql query cost???
Hi,
I have executed many sql stmts patterns- such as:
a) using a single table
b) using two tables, using simple joins or outer joins
but i have not noticed any difference in sql stmts in cost and in execution plan....
Anyway, my colleague insists on that using aggregate function is less costly compared to
distinct....(something i have not confirmed, that's why i beleive that they are exactly the same...)
For the above reffered 1st sql pattern.. we could for example use
select distinct deptno
from emp
select count(*), deptno
from emp
group by deptno select distinct owner, object_type from all_objects
select count(*), owner, object_type from all_objects
group by owner, object_typeHave you found any difference between the two ever...????
Note: I use Ora DB 10g v2.
Thank you,
Simdistinct and aggregate function are for different uses and may give same result but if u r using aggregate function to get distinct records, it will be expensive...
ex
select distinct deptno from scott.dept;

Aggregate function in the query
Hi gurus,
What makes presentation layer send queries with Aggregate( by ) function eventhough this function is not used in the column formulas?
Now comes a long explanation - only for the patient ones :-)
I am working OBIEE / Essbase.
A strange thing happened to one of my reports - exactly the same report (pivot) in production (old repository) works fine, but brings wrong results on the new repository.
I found out that SQL sent to OBIEE is different.
With old repository, it sends a query with 'Aggregate ( by)' function used for measures. However with the new one, it sends just column names without the Aggregate.
Where shall I look for the difference?
-- OLD (Good) query -----------
SELECT DIM_BATCH_HEADERS."Gen3,DIM_BATCH_HEADERS" saw_0,
PROD_QTY.PROD_ACTUAL_QTY_KG/1000 saw_1,
DIM_COMPONENT."Gen3,DIM_COMPONENT" saw_2, ' ' saw_3,
COST.COMP_ACTUAL_COST_ILS_PER_TON saw_4, 0 saw_5,
COST.ACTUAL_COST_K_ILS saw_6, 0 saw_7,
AGGREGATE(saw_1 BY ),
AGGREGATE(saw_4 BY ),
AGGREGATE(saw_6 BY ),
AGGREGATE(saw_1 BY saw_0, saw_5),
AGGREGATE(saw_4 BY saw_0, saw_5),
AGGREGATE(saw_6 BY saw_0, saw_5)
FROM "COP_MAAD#1" WHERE (COMP_QTY.COMP_RELEVANT > 0)
AND (DIM_TIME."YEAR" = '2009')
AND (DIM_BATCH_HEADERS."Gen2,DIM_BATCH_HEADERS" = 'ABC')
ORDER BY saw_1 DESC, saw_4 DESC, saw_0, saw_2, saw_3, saw_5, saw_7
-- NEW (Incorrect) Query ---------------
SELECT DIM_BATCH_HEADERS."Gen3,DIM_BATCH_HEADERS" saw_0,
PROD_QTY.PROD_ACTUAL_QTY_KG/1000 saw_1,
DIM_COMPONENT."Gen3,DIM_COMPONENT" saw_2,
' ' saw_3, COST.COMP_ACTUAL_COST_ILS_PER_TON saw_4,
0 saw_5,
COST.ACTUAL_COST_K_ILS saw_6,

EJB 3.0: EJBQL aggregate functions not working properly
Hi!
We are experiencing problems when using aggregate functions within EJBQL queries. In my case, we have to use max() function to retrieve the max start_date from a specific table. In order to do this, we wrote the following code:
String strQuery = "select max(o.dt_fim) from Questionario o";
Query queryTeste = em.createQuery(strQuery);
List x = queryTeste.getResultList();
OBS: dt_fim is an Oracle 10g datetime column, with its corresponding entity attribute in Questionario entity class.
AFAIK, the query above should return only one record (object instance) containing the date value, right? However, it brougth a list of the entity objects, corresponding to all records in the table, as we had just run "select o from Questionario o".
Examining the server log we can see this behavior:
[TopLink Fine]:2006.09.12 01:47:55.526--
ServerSession(7119662)--Connection(7048401)--Thread(Thread[ApplicationServerThread-0,5,RequestThreadGroup])
--SELECT ID_QUEST, DT_INICIO, DT_FIM, DS_QUEST, DT_CRIACAO, TP_QUEST, NM_QUEST, COD_SEGMENTO, ID_GRUPO FROM TBBOP_QUEST
Are anyone experiencing this issue?
Is there any workaround?
Any help would be much appreciated, since we need to deploy the application for user testing asap.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Gustavo

Problem while using aggregate functions in EJB QL 2.1
Hai all,
I am using aggregate function as follows
select max(c.id) from customer as c
for this iam selected check box EJB QL 2.1 in persistent.xml
this is validated by nwds, but while deploying server raising error like ejb ql syntax error.
Actually according to EJB QL 2.1 this is a valid query, what i need to do for run this same query .
Anybody please help me in this regard
Regards
SomarajuBeevin
Both two are not even validated,
but with the first one as select max(c.id) from customer as c , in this case it is validated but while deploying it is error as , object must be return
But when i saw the ejb2.1 specification we can write this type of queries also ?
Is it problem with was any thing

Pivot type query without aggregate function. Transposing

You always need to use an aggregate function while pivoting.
Even if you don't really need any aggregation, that is, when what you see in the table is what you'll get in the result set, you still have to use an aggregate function. If there will only be one value contrinuting to each cell, then you can use MIN or MAX. It won't matter which; since there's only 1 value, that value will be the highest of the 1, and it will also be the lowest. For NUMBER columns, you could also use SUM or AVG.
SELECT *
FROM temp_task
PIVOT ( MIN (monthly_count)
FOR group_number IN ( 'GROUP 1'
, 'GROUP 2'
, 'GROUP 3'
ORDER BY validation_date
; Output:
VALIDATION_ 'GROUP 1' 'GROUP 2' 'GROUP 3'
15-Nov-2012 42 10 7
14-Dec-2012 33 32 9It sounds like you're doing real aggregation someplace, to get monthly_count. Maybe it would be simpler and more efficient to do the pivoting at that point. What is the big picture here? Post some sample data as it is before you compute monthly_count, and the results you want from that data (if different from what you've already posted), and then let's see if we can't aggregte it and pivot it at the same time. -
How to write SQL query and apply aggregate functions on it
Hello experts,
Iu2019ve a task to write SQL query on tree tables and do inner join on them. Iu2019ve accomplish this task by using T-CODE SQVI. However now I need to write a query and apply SQL functions on it i.e. Add, Count, Max and Min etc. Please can someone tell me how I can write SQL query with aggregate functions in SAP?
Thanks a lot in advanceHI Mr. Cool
you can see the below code for using aggregate functions.
where ARTIST and SEATSOCCU are the field names for which you want to perform these functions.
DATA: TOTAL_ENTRIES TYPE I,
TOTAL_ATT TYPE I,
MAX_ATT TYPE I,
AVG_ATT TYPE I.
SELECT COUNT( DISTINCT ARTIST )
SUM( SEATSOCCU )
MAX( SEATSOCCU )
AVG( SEATSOCCU ) FROM YCONCERT INTO (TOTAL_ENTRIES, TOTAL_ATT,
MAX_ATT, AVG_ATT).

Aggregate functions in EJBQL ???
Does the latest version of Oracle App server support aggregate functions like SUM/COUNT/AVG in the EJBQL?
Does the latest version of Oracle App server support aggregate functions like SUM/COUNT/AVG in the EJBQL? Hi Swami --
The latest version of Oracle9iAS - v903 is J2EE 1.3 compatible so it supports all of the EJB 2.0 specification.
The EJB 2.0 specification lists the following functions for EJBQL:
String Functions:
CONCAT(String, String) returns a String
SUBSTRING(String, start, length) returns a String
LOCATE(String, String [, start]) returns an int
LENGTH(String) returns an int
Arithmetic Functions:
ABS(number) returns a number (int, float, or double)
SQRT(double) returns a double
The latest version of the EJB 2.1 specification which will be part of J2EE 1.4, has added support for aggregate functions like orderby, sum, count, etc.
11.2.7.2 Aggregate Functions in the SELECT Clause
The result of an EJB QL query may be the result of an aggregate function applied to a path expression.
The following aggregate functions can be used in the SELECT clause of an EJB QL query: AVG,
COUNT, MAX, MIN, SUM.
We will support these when the EJB 2.1 specification is finalized and we produce our J2EE 1.4 compatible implementation.

Trying to create a Histogram type/object for aggregate functions
Hi,
I am trying to create an aggregate function that will return a histogram
type.
It doesn't have to be an object that is returned, I don't mind returning
a string but I would like to keep the associative array (or something
else indexed by varchar2) as a static variable between iterations.
I started out with the SecondMax example in
http://www.csis.gvsu.edu/GeneralInfo/Oracle/appdev.920/a96595/dci11agg.htm#1004821
But even seems that even a simpler aggregate function like one strCat
below (which works) has problems because I get multiple permutations for
every combination. The natural way to solve this would be to create an
associative array as a static variable as part of the Histogram (see
code below). However, apparently Oracle refuses to accept associate
arrays in this context (PLS-00355 use of pl/sql table not allowed in
this context).
If there is no easy way to do the histogram quickly can we at least get
something like strCat to work in a specific order with a "partition by
... order by clause"? It seems that even with "PARALLEL_ENABLE"
commented out strCat still calls merge for function calls like:
select hr,qtr, count(tzrwy) rwys,
noam.strCat(cnt) rwycnt,
noam.strCat(tzrwy) config,
sum(cnt) cnt, min(minscore) minscore, max(maxscore) maxscore from
ordrwys group by hr,qtr
Not only does this create duplicate entries in the query result like
"A,B,C" and "A,C,B" it seems that the order in rwycnt and config are not
always the same so a user can not match the results based on their
order.
The difference between my functions and functions like sum and the
secondMax demonstrated in the documentation is that secondMax does not
care about the order in which it gets its arguments and does not need to
maintain an ordered set in order to return the correct results. A good
example of a built in oracle function that does care about all its
arguments and probably has to maintain a similar data structure to the
one I want is the PERCTILE_DISC function. If you can find the code for
that function (or something like it) and forward a reference to me that
in itself would be very helpful.
Thanks,
K.Dingle

Issue in pivot while using aggregate functions
when I use this below query in oracle sql developer

i am getting result as 448.8.it is a correct value
but i use this below queries in pivot as same like above query i am getting result of doubled value 914.4.
PIVOT
SUM(round(ROUND(sellout,2)/6,2)) AS LAST_6_MON_SELL_OUT,
SUM(ROUND(inventory,2)) AS INVENTORY_INTINS_1,
Sum(round(ROUND(inventory,2)/round(ROUND(sellout,2)/6,2),2)*30) As Stockperday
FOR PRODUCT IN (56,78)
actually i am getting value for SUM(round(ROUND(sellout,2)/6,2)) is 0.54,*SUM(ROUND(inventory,2))* is 8.08 i the above query ,but i am getting wrong value for this aggregate function Sum(round(ROUND(inventory,2)/round(ROUND(sellout,2)/6,2),2)30)* as 914.4.but actual value is 448.8

Why doesn't PIVOT clause work with COLLECT aggregate function in 11g ?
Hello all !
I am really puzzled as to what is considered an aggregate function in the context of the PIVOT clause in 11g.
I have been toying with quite a few things related to collections lately and this arose as an aside :
CREATE TABLE TEST_COLL
NODE_ID VARCHAR2(15 CHAR) NOT NULL,
NODE_VALUE VARCHAR2(45 CHAR) NOT NULL,
NODE_LEVEL NUMBER(1) NOT NULL
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE TREE_NODE AS OBJECT
NODE_KEY VARCHAR2( 15 CHAR),
NODE_NAME VARCHAR2(127 CHAR)
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE TREE_NODES AS TABLE OF TREE_NODE NOT NULL;At this stage I am sure we all agree that the query
SELECT NODE_LEVEL,
CAST(COLLECT(TREE_NODE(NODE_ID, NODE_VALUE)) AS TREE_NODES) AS NODES
FROM TEST_COLL
GROUP BY NODE_LEVEL;is perfectly valid as the COLLECT function is an aggregate function according to the [Official Documentation|http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10592/functions031.htm#i1271564]
But then, one of the following two queries should work
SELECT CAST(REGION_NODES AS TREE_NODES) AS REGIONS,
CAST(DEPARTMENT_NODES AS TREE_NODES) AS DEPARTMENTS,
CAST(AREA_NODES AS TREE_NODES) AS AREAS,
CAST(CENTRE_NODES AS TREE_NODES) AS CENTRES
FROM (SELECT NODE_LEVEL, TREE_NODE(NODE_ID, NODE_VALUE) AS NODE
FROM TREE_COLL
PIVOT (COLLECT(NODE) FOR NODE_LEVEL IN (1 AS REGION_NODES,
2 AS DEPARTMENT_NODES,
3 AS AREA_NODES,
4 AS CENTRE_NODES
or (better)
SELECT REGION_NODES AS REGIONS,
DEPARTMENT_NODES AS DEPARTMENTS,
AREA_NODES AS AREAS,
CENTRE_NODES AS CENTRES
FROM (SELECT NODE_LEVEL, TREE_NODE(NODE_ID, NODE_VALUE) AS NODE
FROM TREE_COLL
PIVOT (CAST(COLLECT(NODE) AS TREE_NODES) FOR NODE_LEVEL IN (1 AS REGION_NODES,
2 AS DEPARTMENT_NODES,
3 AS AREA_NODES,
4 AS CENTRE_NODES
);yet, both fail with
ORA-56902: expect aggregate function inside pivot operationInvestigating further, I found the same behaviour when using XMLAGG as the aggregate function in the PIVOT clause.
Is this normal ? And if it is, is there any other way to achieve the result I was anticipating ?

PhilipMost likely a bug. But you can bypass it by using any other aggregate making sure group consists of a single row and apply collect to a pivoted value. Yes, the cost is double aggregation. And also there is another cost - you would need to create MAP member function otherwise aggreations like MAX/MIN, etc. will not work:

Can't have aggregate function in WHERE clause clause
Dear all,
I've created object in BO XI 3.1 Designer with following criterias:
http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/833/20111201124314.th.jpg
It is a simple number - 1,2,3,4,5.
Now I need to use this object as a criteria for WHERE function in another object.

I receive an error "Can't have aggregate function in WHERE clause <clause>"
How can I overcome this?
P.S. I'm sorry in advance if such topic already exist - I didn't found one.
