Between function in Case statement

Depending on what the @pintSelectType is equal to I must use either
Clm.InjuryDate BETWEEN @pdteFrom AND @pdteTo
or
Clm.ReceivedDate BETWEEN @pdteFrom AND @pdteTo
but this does not work in the Where clause:
AND
CASE @pintSelectType
 WHEN = 1 THEN (Clm.InjuryDate BETWEEN @pdteFrom AND @pdteTo)
 ELSE (Clm.ReceivedDate BETWEEN @pdteFrom AND @pdteTo)
END
Please help.

Thanks Taherul673.  Using your suggestion I ended up with:
AND
(CASE
 WHEN @pintSelectType = 1 THEN CONVERT(date, Clm.InjuryDate)
 ELSE CONVERT(date, Clm.ReceivedDate)
 END) BETWEEN @pdteFrom AND @pdteTo

  • SQL Expression in decode function or case statement?

    Can I put SQL expressions in decode function or case statement?
    For example,
    select le.profile, decode( select count(1) from profile_data where NAME= 'XXXX_AFTER' and object_id = le.profile, 0, 'N', 'Y')
    from element le;
    or
    select le.profile, case WHEN ( select count(1) from profile_data where NAME= 'XXXX_AFTER' and object_id = le.profile) = 0 THEN 'N'
    ELSE 'Y'
    from element le;
    None of the above work.
    Can anyone tell me how to make it work?
    Is there any workaround?
    Thanks,
    J

    You simply needed and END to your CASE statement;
    SQL> with profile_data as (
       select 'XXXX_AFTER' name, 1 object_id from dual),
         element as (
       select 1 profile from dual union all
       select 2 from dual)
    select le.profile,
       case WHEN ( select count(1) from profile_data where NAME= 'XXXX_AFTER' and object_id = le.profile) = 0
       THEN 'N'
       ELSE 'Y'
       END new_col

       PROFILE N
             1 Y
             2 N

  • How to use Substring function with Case statement.

    Hello Everyone,
    I have one requirement where I have to use substring function on the field for report criteria.
    E.G.
    I have Branch Name Field where I have all branch names information, Now some of the branch names are too big with some extension after the name .
    now i want to substing it but the character length varies for each branch.
    so is there any way where we can use case statement where we can define that if branch name character are exceeding some value then substing it with this length.

    Try something like this:
    CASE WHEN LENGTH(tablename.Branch_Name) > n THEN SUBSTRING(...) ELSE tablename.Branch_Name END
    where n is the number of characters you want to start the break.

  • Diff b/w IF/ENDIF and CASE statement?

    Hi all,
    Plz let me know the difference between IF and CASE statements.Which one is better to be used in general...and are there any specific situations where we have to go for CASE insted of IF.
    Rgds,
    Reddy.

    Hi,
    Case statement is good for performance wise because here we declare cases
    and according to these cases program will be executed.
    When we use if statement then the cursur goes to in the loop, when ever
    the loop is not complete till then the programme will not execute.
    Thats by in performance basis the case statement is good.
    Let me try and explain using an example...
    1) For IF statement...
    Suppost you have a variable color..and you are checking it against color names.
    then your code will be
    IF COLOR == 'BLUE'.
        statements
    ELSEIF COLOR == 'BLACK'.
        statements.
    ...and so on....
    ENDIF.
    But if you use CASE Statement
    CASE COLOR.
    when 'BLUE'.
       statements.
    when 'BLACK'.
      statements.
    so follows that CASE is easy to use and performance wise is also better.
    Regards,
    Priyanka.

  • Case statement performance

    Hello,
    This is relating to one of the previous posts.
    CASE STATEMENT PERFORMANCE
    As it has been a discussion of case statement performance. I tried to compare both the filter function and case statement.
    they both actually generate the same physical query.
    So I just am trying to understand the difference.
    thanks,
    Deep

    Hi Deep,
    There would be some performance using CASE where as filter function would generate straight SQL that is WHERE clause is added into the SQL statement for better performance.
    Have a look at this http://www.biconsultinggroup.com/obiee-tips-and-tricks/using-a-filter-function-instead-of-case-statements.html
    http://prolynxuk.com/blog/?p=462
    UPDATED POST
    Can you paste both SQL's generated here.
    hope answered
    Cheers,

  • Case statement and Decode function both are not working in Select cursor.

    I have tried both the Case statement and Decode function in Select cursor, but both the things are not working. On the other hand both the things work in just select statement.
    See the first column in select (PAR_FLAG), I need to have this evaluated along with other fields. Can you please suggest some thing to make this work. And also I would like to
    know the reason why decode is not working, I heard some where Case statement do not work with 8i.

  • Using a scalar user defined function in a select case statement

    I have a simple select statement below and I want to have a case statement for some conditions based on the result of the udf returned value. I then want the returned value from that specific case statement to be returned where i have indicated 'DISPLAY
    ZIPCODE' below.
    SELECT
        CASE
             WHEN (SELECT Top 1 ZipCode FROM ufn_GetAddressByBusinessEntityIDandAddressTypeID(table1.BusinessEntityID,712) IS NOT NULL THEN 'DISPLAY ZIPCODE'
             WHEN (SELECT Top 1 ZipCode FROM ufn_GetAddressByBusinessEntityIDandAddressTypeID(table1.BusinessEntityID,714) as r) IS NOT NULL THEN 'DISPLAY ZIPCODE'
             ELSE NULL
           END as Zipcode,
    FROM
    table1

    SELECT COALESCE(ufn_GetAddressByBusinessEntityIDandAddressTypeID(table1.BusinessEntityID,712),ufn_GetAddressByBusinessEntityIDandAddressTypeID(table1.BusinessEntityID,712)) AS Zipcode
      FROM table1
    Nope. This is two function calls. coalesce(a, b, c, ...) is just syntatic sugar for
       CASE WHEN a IS NOT NULL THEN a
            WHEN b IS NOT NULL THEN b
            WHEN c IS NOT NULL THEN c
       END
    But if you use isnull it's a different matter. (But isnull() permits two arguments.)

  • Case Statement in Analytic Function SUM(n) OVER(PARTITION BY x)

    Hi Guys,
    I have the following SQL that doesn't seem to consider the When clause I am using in the case staement inside the analytic function(SUM). Could somebody let me know why? and suggest the solution?
    Select SUM(Case When (A.Flag = 'B' and B.Status != 'C') Then (NVL(A.Amount_Cr, 0) - (NVL(A.Amount_Dr,0))) Else 0 End) OVER (PARTITION BY A.Period_Year) Annual_amount

    --and B.STATUS != 'C'
    --and A.Flag = 'B'
    and A.Col_x = B.Col_x
    and A.Col_y = C.Col_y
    When I use this SQL, I get
    Annual_Amount Period_Year Status Flag
    5721017.5 --------- 2006 ---------- C -------- B
    5721017.5 --------- 2006 ---------- O -------- B
    5721017.5 --------- 2006 ---------- NULL ----- A
    And when I put the conditions in the where clause, I get
    Annual_Amount Period_Year Status Flag
    5721017.5 ---------- 2006 ---------- O -------- B

    Here are some scripts,
    create table testtable1 ( ColxID number(10), ColyID number(10) , Periodname varchar2(15), Flag varchar2(1), Periodyear number(15), debit number, credit number)

  • CASE Statement error in function -- Please help!

    Hi All,
    I created a function in my report.
    It has a SQL query similar to the one below. The query works fine in SQL plus.
    It has a CASE statement. I am getting error at line4 at the select statement. Error is: "Encountered symbol 'SELECT'....."
    Can we use CASE statements like this in reports that use SELECT statements for RETURN EXPRESSIONS. Do we have to do any special?
    Can someone help me out of this trouble?
    THanks in advance.

  • MDX -Children count function Not working in Case statement

    Hi,
    I am trying to create set when you slice with the Hierarchy member is leaf level , I want a output only that Leaf level .
    and When I slice with  the parent level , it has to give all the members below that parent level.
    But the problem here is when I select child member or leaf member , The first condition in the Case is not working

     (SELECT {[Dimension].[Hierarchy].&[10]} ON COLUMNS FROM [CubeName])
    Thanks,

    Hi Santosh,
    I don't think Children count function not working in case statement, I have tested it on my local environment, here s the sample query for you reference.
    with member
    testset as
    case
    when
    [Geography].[Geography].currentmember.children.count<10
    then "X"
    else "OK"
    end
    select testset on 0,
    {[Geography].[Geography].[Country].members} on 1

    In your scenario, the issue might be caused by the query isself, you can try to use IsLeaf Funcion to achieve your requirement. Please refer to the links below.

  • Turn a case statement into a function

    I have a case statement (from an earlier post - thank you) that works. I was wondering if it could be edited and change into a function instead. I think it would be cleaner. The variable is set in the Form Properties (pCounterA).
    switch (pCounterA.value)
        case "1":
        profileA__1image.rawValue = profileA_1image.value.image.value;
        pCounterA.value = "2";
        break;
        case "2":
        profileA__1image.rawValue = profileA_2image.value.image.value;
        pCounterA.value = "3";
        break;
        case "3":
        profileA__1image.rawValue = profileA_3image.value.image.value;
        pCounterA.value = "4";
        break;
        case "4":
        profileA__1image.rawValue = profileA_4image.value.image.value;
        pCounterA.value = "5";
        break;
        case "5":
        profileA__1image.rawValue = profileA_5image.value.image.value;
        pCounterA.value = "1"; // loops back to the first image
        break;

    Hi,
    If you insert a script object by right clicking on the root container (often "form1"). It will appear unnamed in the root / variables in the hierarchy.
    First of all you should name the script object, staying away from reserved names, eg "this". Say "myScripts"
    Script objects can only contain Javascript, so you would need to convert FormCalc scripts (not an issue in your case).
    When you go into the script object, you start off a function with "function" followed by its name and inputs in brackets. The extent of the function is given by curly brackets:
    function changeImage(vCounter)
         switch (vCounter)
             case "1":
             profileA__1image.rawValue = profileA_1image.value.image.value;
             pCounterA.value = "2";
             break;
         } // close switch statement
    } // close function
    Back in the form you can call the function by referencing the name of the script object and the name of the function.
    myScripts.changeImage(pCounterA.value);
    A couple of things to note:
    The input in the script can refer to an objects value or a global variable, but in the function you can assign it s different name. So above the input pCounterA.value is EQUAL to vCounter in the function;
    You can have several inputs in the call for the function separated by commas;
    Don't have the same name for the script object AND the function
    Hope that helps,
    Niall

  • To use Boolean function in DECODE or CASE statement

    Hi all
    I have a scenario where i need to use a boolean function inside DECODE statement. When i tried this way iam getting "ORA-06553: PLS-382: expression is of wrong type".
    I doubt whether i can use boolean function inside DECODE or not?
    My query will be like this:
    select decode(my_fuction( ),'TRUE',1,'FALSE',0) from dual;
    Any help is highly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Sriram

    Overloaded functions must differ by more than their
    return type . At the time that the overloaded
    function is called, the compiler doesn't know what type
    of data that function will return. The compiler cannot,
    therefore, determine which version of the function to
    use if all the parameters are the same.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

  • Regarding case statement and decode function

    Hi Experts,
    I have question.....regarding case statement and decode statement....
    Can you please explain me that which one will be efficient,to place in insert statement...
    insert statement(
    (case when ........then
                         case when ....then
                         else
                         end)

    end)
    Can you people explain me which one is more efficient method?
    Thanks in advance.......

    The are major differences to talk about in case of CASE vs DECODE, but performance wise both are pretty much the same.
    Have a look at Tom's thread
    Ask Tom &amp;quot;better performance - case or decode&amp;quot;
    I would suggest to use CASE whenever possible. Don't worry about the performance part.

  • CASE STATEMENTS AND CASE EXPRESSIONS IN ORACLE9I PL/SQL

    제품 : PL/SQL
    작성날짜 : 2001-11-13
    CASE STATEMENTS AND CASE EXPRESSIONS IN ORACLE9I PL/SQL
    =======================================================
    PURPOSE
    아래의 자료는 Case 문에서 oracle 8.1.7과 Oracle 9i의 New Feature로 8.1.7에서는
    sqlplus 에서만 가능했고, 9i 부터는 pl/sql 까지 가능하다.
    Explanation
    1. Oracle 8.1.7 Feature
    Oracle 8.1.7 에서 Case 문은 Decode 문과 유사하지만, 기존의 decode 문을 쓰는 것보다
    더 많은 확장성과 Logical Power와 좋은 성능을 제공한다. 주로 나이와 같이 category 별로
    나눌때 주로 사용하고 Syntex는 아래와 같다.
    CASE WHEN <cond1> THEN <v1> WHEN <cond2> THEN <v2> ... [ELSE <vn+1> ] END
    각각의 WHEN...THEN 절의 argument 는 255 까지 가능하고 이 Limit를 해결하려면
    Oracle 8i Reference를 참조하면 된다.
    The maximum number of arguments in a CASE expression is 255, and each
    WHEN ... THEN pair counts as two arguments. To avoid exceeding the limit of 128 choices,
    you can nest CASE expressions. That is expr1 can itself be a CASE expression.
    Case Example : 한 회사의 모든 종업원의 평균 봉급을 계산하는데 봉급이 $2000보다 작은경우
    2000으로 계산을 하는 방법이 pl/sql을 대신하여 case function을 사용할 수 있다.
    SELECT AVG(CASE when e.sal > 2000 THEN e.sal ELSE 2000 end) FROM emp e;
    Case Example : 나이를 column으로 가지고 있는 customer table을 예로 들어보자.

    2. Oracle 9i Feature
    Oracle 9i부터는 pl/sql에서도 case문을 사용할 수 있으면 이것은
    복잡한 if-else 구문을 없애고, C언어의 switch문과 같은 기능을 한다.
    아래의 9i pl/sql Sample 및 제약 사항을 보면 아래와 같다.
    Sample 1:
    A simple example demonstrating the proper syntax for a case
    statement
    using a character variable as the selector. See the section entitled
    'Restrictions' at the end of this article for details on which PLSQL
    datatypes may appear as a selector in a case statement or
    expression.

    expression

    when 'B' then 'Very Good'
    when 'C' then 'Good'
    when 'D' then 'Fair'
    when 'F' then 'Poor'
    else 'No such grade'
    end;
    dbms_output.put_line('The description was ' || description);
    end;

    NOTE: The above simple samples demonstrate two subtle differences in the
    syntax
    required for case statements and expressions.
    1) A case STATEMENT is terminated using the 'end case' keywords; a
    case
    EXPRESSION is terminated using only the 'end' keyword.
    2) Each item in a case STATEMENT consists of one or more
    statements, each
    terminated by a semicolon. Each item in a case expression
    consists of
    exactly one expression, not terminated by a semicolon.
    Sample 3:
    Sample 1 demonstrates a simple case statement in which the selector
    is
    compared for equality with each item in the case statement body.
    PL/SQL
    also provides a 'searched' case statement as an alternative; rather
    than
    providing a selector and a list of values, each item in the body of
    the
    case statement provides its own predicate. This predicate can be any
    valid boolean expression, but only one case will be selected.

    Sample 5:
    This sample demonstrates the use of nested case statements. It is
    also
    permissable to nest case expressions within a case statement (though
    it
    is not demonstrated here), but nesting of case statements within a
    case
    expression is not possible since statements do not return any value.

    Sample 6:
    This sample demonstrates nesting of case expressions within another
    case
    expression. Note again the absence of semicolons to terminate both
    the
    nested case expression and the individual cases of those
    expressions.

    Although PL/SQL anonymous blocks have been used in all of the examples
    so far,
    case statements and expressions can also be used in procedures,
    functions, and
    packages with no changes to the syntax.
    The following samples are included for completeness and demonstrate the
    use of
    case statements and/or expressions in each of these scenarios.
    Sample 7:
    This sample demonstrates use of a case statement in a stored
    procedure.
    Note that this sample also demonstrates that it is possible for each
    of
    the items in the case body to consist of more than one statement.

    제약 사항
    다음의 databasetype은 case 문에서 지원되지 않는다.
    BLOB
    BFILE
    VARRAY
    Nested Table
    PL/SQL Record
    PL/SQL Version 2 tables (index by tables)
    Object type (user-defined type)
    All of these types except for object types face a similar restriction
    even for if statements (i.e. they cannot be compared for equality directly) so this is unlikely to change for these types. Lack of support for object types is simply an implementation restriction which may be relaxed in future releases.

    NOTE:131557.1

    I have done the following code but doesn't
    like the statement of - "case(butNext)". What do you mean "doesn't like" -- did you get an error message?
    I'm guessing it won't compile because you're trying to switch on a Button.
    I tried something
    like "g.fillOval(100,50,70,90, BorderLayout.NORTH)"...no that doesn't make sense. You only use BorderLayout.NORTH when you're adding components to a BorderLayout layout manager. An oval is not a component and fillOval isn't adding a component and Graphics is not a Panel or layout manager.
    Would appreciate it if someone could tell me how to position
    shapes using the graohic method. I think the problem is that you're confusing shapes with components.
