DataType conflict in the R/3 when joining two tables

Hi Experts,
I have created a view with two table in the R/3 side by joining two common fields,but one of the field is getting error with different data type, so could any one suggest me how to resolve this issue without changing type.
Thanks,
Venugopal

Hi
Actually I have to pull one of the field from one table and place in other table and create a generic data source on it,Can any one suggest me with any solution or exists to solve this issue.
Thanks,

How to prevent Oracle from using an index when joining two tables ...

How to prevent Oracle from using an index when joining two tables to get an inline view which is used in an update statement?
O.K. I think I have to explain what I mean:
When joining two tables which have many entries sometimes it es better not to use an index on the column used as join criteria.
I have two tables: table A and table B.
Table A has 4.000.000 entries and table B has 700.000 entries.
I have a join of both tables with a numeric column as join criteria.
There is an index on this column in table A.
So I instead of
where (A.col = B.col)I want to use
where (A.col+0 = B.col)in order to prevent Oracle from using the index.
When I use the join in a select statement it works.
But when I use the join as inline view in an update statement I get the error ORA-01779.
When I remove the "+0" the update statement works. (The column col is unique in table B).
Any ideas why this happens?
Thank you very much in advance for any help.
Regards Hartmut

I think you should post an properly formatted explain plan output using DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY including the "Predicate Information" section below the plan to provide more details regarding your query resp. update statement. Please use the \[code\] and \[code\] tags to enhance readability of the output provided:
In SQL*Plus:
SET LINESIZE 130
EXPLAIN PLAN FOR <your statement>;
SELECT * FROM TABLE(DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY);Usually if you're using the CBO (cost based optimizer) and have reasonable statistics gathered on the database objects used the optimizer should be able to determine if it is better to use the existing index or not.
Things look different if you don't have statistics, you have outdated/wrong statistics or deliberately still use the RBO (rule based optimizer). In this case you would have to use other means to prevent the index usage, the most obvious would be the already mentioned NO_INDEX or FULL hint.
But I strongly recommend to check in first place why the optimizer apparently seems to choose an inappropriate index access path.

Problem when joining two tables

hi,
in one table i have
matno mattype
00001    a
00002    b
00003    c
00004    d
in table two i have
vno   matno
v001     1
v002     2
v003     3
v004     4
when i am trying to link these two tables with matno it is not happening
is it because it is showing '00001' in one table and '1' in other table
how to fix this
note:same material info object is their in both the tables

Hi,
are your two tables attribute master data tables? Can you paste the names here?
If as you mention you ae using the same IObj 0MATERIAL, the data in should be the same, unless you didn't turn the conversion routine in the TRules of your second IObj (table vno/matno)
Please describe with more detail the infoObjects related to your two tables and the TRules associated.
As a very first check, verify if your material has MATN1 conversion routine and if you have activated it in both TRules; if not, do that, reload your master data, activate it and check it again.
hope this helps...

Strange problem when joining two tables

Hi,
I have recently encountered a strange problem on an Oracle 11gR2 database which is optimized for Datawarehouse usage.
I am using two tables that have a relationship enforced by two fields of type NUMBER(10).
The problem is that when I am joining these two tables very often I get strange results and when I re-execute the query I get a different result. I saw in the explain plan that the Hash Join is used for joining these two tables.
select count(*)
from recharge_history rh, recharge_history_balance rhb
where rh.recharge_id = rhb.recharge_id
and rh.recharge_id2 = rhb.recharge_id2
and trunc(rh.recharge_date_time) between '30-Dec-2012' and '31-Dec-2012'
If I explicitly set the Join method to some other type through SQL Hints, or if I use to_number function when joining (even though the two fields used for join in both tables are of NUMBER(10) type), I get the correct result, like for example below:
select /*+ USE_MERGE (rh rhb) */
count(*)
from recharge_history rh, recharge_history_balance rhb
where rh.recharge_id = rhb.recharge_id
and rh.recharge_id2 = rhb.recharge_id2
and trunc(rh.recharge_date_time) between '30-Dec-2012' and '31-Dec-2012'
select
count(*)
from recharge_history rh, recharge_history_balance rhb
where to_number(rh.recharge_id) = t_number(rhb.recharge_id)
and to_number(rh.recharge_id2) = (to_number)rhb.recharge_id2)
and trunc(rh.recharge_date_time) between '30-Dec-2012' and '31-Dec-2012'
Thank you for your time.

Don't try to compare DATEs with VARCHAR2s, such as '30-Dec-2012'. The VARCHAR2 '31-Aug-2012' is between '30-Dec-2012' and '31-Dec-2012'; so are '31-Aug-2013' and '30-Mar-1999'.
That may not be your only problem, but it's still a problem.
If you're getting incosistent results, then it sounds like a bug. Start a service request with Oracle support.

How to do proper group by when joining two tables ?

Hi all,
Using the below join query, I would like to get output based on number of "Classes" ( For eg: If I want result for 15 classes then , it should return 16 rows from 0 to 16).
I n below query , I use group by as
"GROUP BY report_parameters.report_parameter_value ".
Error says "its not group by expression".
If I commented out group by , then it reurns 320 rows instead of 16 rows.
Could anyone help me?

Hi Frank,
Thank you so much for your reply.
Yes it is the same query.
Okay, here I will explain what i actually want.
Below is my final output(No doubt)
veh weight    class 0    class 1   class 2
0->5               0          5        10
5-> 10             0          22       32
10->15             0          12       67
In final dynamic sql(which have to generate the above final output), we use 2 functions(called my_class_select_text and my_class_sum_text) to genearte two types of sql strings as below:so the output that I asked is regards this functions' output not the final output.

Join two tables with no matching records

Hi All,
I have two tables which have got data as below. Now I need to join those two tables but there are no matching rows or columns in those tables. I have used OUTER JOIN but query was taking more than 5 mnts to run. Whats the best way to join two tables where
there are no matching records.
Table : Sections &Table : orders
I am expecting the final output like I have mentioned below.
How can i write a JOIN. Note there are no matching records from both the tables.
Pls.This is a very urgent requirement.Regards
-pep

Thanks Elrand. I have one question. What if I want to add 10 more parameters in @Section table then
the logic I have written below will not work. I will have to make it dynamic. Any suggestions.?
declare @test table (RowNo INT,CokeType NVARCHAR(MAX),BeginUsage dateTIME)
declare @Section table (SectionName NVARCHAR(100))
insert into @Section values ('CokeType')
insert into @Section values ('BeginUsage')
insert into @test values (1,'OMV - 02E (04/2012)','01-02-2014')
insert into @test values (2,'OMV - 02E (04/2012)','01-03-2014')
insert into @test values (3,'PCIC - 01 (01E/2013)','01-04-2014')
insert into @test values (4,'PCIC - 01 (01E/2013)','01-05-2014')
insert into @test values (5,'PCIC - 01 (E) - 07/2011 & Alba /2010 (C/F) 05/2011','01-06-2014')
select * from @Section
select * from @test
SELECT
RowNo,SectionName,
CASE
WHEN(SectionName = 'CokeType') THEN CokeType
ELSE
CAST (BeginUsage AS VARCHAR(MAX))
END
AS DATA
FROM @Section AS S
CROSS APPLY
(SELECT T.RowNo,T.CokeType,T.BeginUsage FROM @test T) P
ORDER BY SectionName DESC

Any ideas? Or joining two table through a dblink for a mview is not allowed at all?
Thanks in advance.

How do I join two tables in the same database and load the result into a destination table in a SSIS package

Hi,
I have a query that joins two tables in the same database, the result needs to be loaded in a destination DB table. How do I do this in SSIS package?
thank you !

Using a view to join two tables

Thank you in advance for any advice you can lend.
I am using this code in my MySQL db to create a view.
select
    job.id as job_id,
    umr_cost_calculation.plant_name,
    max(umr_cost_calculation.id) as max_id
from
    job,
    umr_cost_calculation
where
    job.id = umr_cost_calculation.job_id
group by job.id , umr_cost_calculation.plant_name
I did this so I can join two tables and pull in the most current cost data for a specific plant. The report will, at times, show the wrong (older) data. I can re-run the report, filter to just the one job and see again the wrong data. When I add the max_id to the report, it display the id and updates the report with the correct data. It appears that the view was stale and by adding the ID to the report this fixed the issue.
1) Is this the best way to make this join? I don't see how Crystal supports a subquery to make a join (this is why I used the view).
2) If I leave the max_id on the report, will this force the view to always update?

Try:
Select
D1.EmpLoginID,
Count(D1.ID),
Count(D1.AlarmCode),
D1.EmpName,
D1.EmpAddress,
D2.Db2Count
FROM DB1.Data D1
LEFT JOIN (SELECT
empLoginID, Count(*) as Db2Count
FROM DB2.ALL_Database
WHERE site = 'Atlanta'
GROUP BY empLoginID
) D2
ON D1.EmpLoginID = D2.EmpLoginID
GROUP BY D1.empLoginID, D1.EmpName, D2.EmpAddress, D2.Db2Count
Order BY D1.empLoginID ASC

How do you join two tables from different Oracle schemas using a subquery

I am trying to join two tables from different Oracle schemas using a subquery. I can extract data from each of the tables without a problem. However, when I combine the select statements using a subquery I get the Oracle error *'ORA-00936: missing expression'*. Since each SELECT statement executes on its own without error I don't understand what is missing. The result set I am trying to get is to match up the LINE_ID from PDTABLE_12_1 in schema DD_12809 with the MAT_DESCRIPTION from table PDTABLE_201 in schema RA_12809.
The query is as follows:
sql = "SELECT [DD_12809].[PDTABLE_12_1].LINE_ID FROM [DD_12809].[PDTABLE_12_1] JOIN " _
+ "(SELECT [RA_12809].[PDTABLE_201].MAT_DESCRIPTION " _
+ "FROM [RA_12809].[PDTABLE_201]) AS FAB " _
+ "ON [DD_12809].[PDTABLE_12_1].PIPING_MATER_CLASS = FAB.PIPING_MATER_CLASS"
The format of the query is copied from a SQL programming manual.
I also tried executing the query using a straight JOIN on the two tables but got the same results. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks!

I believe you are receiving the error because you are trying to JOIN on a column that doesn't exist. For example you are trying to join on FAB.PIPING_MATER_CLASS but that column does not exist in the subquery.
If you want to do a straight join without a subquery you could do the following
SELECT DD_12809.PDTABLE_12_1.LINE_ID
,       FAB.MAT_DESCRIPTION
FROM    DD_12809.PDTABLE_12_1
JOIN    RA_12809.PDTABLE_201    AS FAB ON DD_12809.PDTABLE_12_1.PIPING_MATER_CLASS = FAB.PIPING_MATER_CLASS HTH!

Joining two tables, sql query

This is a newbie question! I would like to join two tables. Table_1 contains xml stylesheets:
id stylesheet doc
1 <xml stylesheet doc A>
2 <xml stylesheet doc B>
And Table_2 contains the XML documents that the stylesheets will transform:
id XML doc
1 <XML document 1>
1 <XML document 2>
1 <XML document 3>
2 <XML document 4>
2 <XML document 5>
I would like <xml stylesheet doc A> to transform only XML doc that have an id of 1, so I tried this sql statement:
select a.stylesheet_doc ,b.xml_doc from Table_1 a, Table_2 b where a.id=b.id and a.id=1;
This statement returns the rows I want (stylesheet doc with id equals 1, and xml_doc with id equals 1), but it pairs each xml document with a style sheet.
stylesheet doc A <XML document 1>
stylesheet doc A <XML document 2>
stylesheet doc A <XML document 3>
My question is, is there a way to have a result that looks like this?
stylesheet doc A
<XML document 1>
<XML document 2>
<XML document 3>
That is, is there a way in sql to get rid of duplicate stylesheet doc A?
I have tried group by and rollup and xmlagg.
Thank you very, very much for your help.

Hi, Jim,
Welcome to the forum!
You just want to display the XML, not actually transform it, right?
GROUP BY ROLLUP should work, but I find it easier with GROUP BY GROUPING SETS. Here's an example from tables in the scott schema:
SELECT       CASE
          WHEN GROUPING (ename) = 1
          THEN d.dname
       END          AS dname
,       e.ename
FROM       scott.dept     d
JOIN       scott.emp     e ON     d.deptno     = e.deptno
GROUP BY GROUPING SETS ( (d.dname, e.ename)
               , (d.dname)
ORDER BY d.dname
,       ename          NULLS FIRST
;Output:
DNAME          ENAME
ACCOUNTING
               CLARK
               KING
               MILLER

               SMITH

               ALLEN
               BLAKE
               JAMES
               MARTIN
               TURNER
               WARDYou may have noticed that this site noramlly compresses whitespace.

Join two tables BKPF and VBRK

I need a report that will join two tables BKPF and VBRK in QuickViewer. The only field with the right character length is XBLNR but when creating the join no records are dispalyed beacuse the values of this field in both tables are not the same.
There are also other fields available in BKPF but the char length is not the appropriate.
Does anyone have any idea how I can link these two tables?
Thank you

Neither of these combinations is possible with QuickViewer because the fields need to have the same length of characters in order to create the join.
VBRK - VBLEN char(10) and BKPF - AWKEY char(20)
VBRK -ZUONR char(18) BKPF- BELNR char (10)
Any other idea?
Thank you, JP

Joining two tables using PL/SQL

here i am trying to join two tables can any one tell me what is wrong with this syntex
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test IS
CURSOR c1 IS SELECT seq,fname,lname from t1;
CURSOR c2 IS SELECT seq1,q,a from t2;
userjob number;
BEGIN
     OPEN c1;
insert into t3 values(c1.seq,c1.fname,c1.lname);
     FETCH c1.seq INTO userjob;
FOR c1rec IN c2 LOOP
IF (c1rec.seq=c1.seq and c1rec.q1='why') THEN
insert into t3 values(c1rec.q1,c1rec.a1);
elsif (c1rec.seq=c1.seq and c1rec.q1='what') then
insert into t3 values(c1rec.q2,c1rec.a2);
elsif (c1rec.seq=c1.seq and c1rec.q1='when') then
insert into t3 values(c1rec.q3,c1rec.a3);
elsif (c1rec.seq=c1.seq and c1rec.q1='where') then
insert into t3 values(c1rec.q4,c1rec.a4);
     END IF;
     END LOOP;
     END;
/

You should always fetch a cursor before using it's values. All columns in the select should be fetched into variables or a record-variable. You can't refer to the cursor-columns values with c1.seq etc.
r1 c1%rowtype;
l_found boolean;
BEGIN
OPEN c1;
FETCH c1 INTO r1;
insert into t3 values(r1.seq,r1.fname,r1.lname);
l_found := c1%found;
close c1;
if l_found
then
It is also better to close the cursor and check if the select resulted in a row. With this code you will only retrieve one row even if the select will result in multiple rows.
But I agree with all the others that this can probably be done more efficiently with one SQL statement.

Help in joining two tables

Hi ,
I need your help in the below scenario:
I have two tables.
One of my table 'table1' contains the below data:
Code:
Name,Value
12A,1
12B,1
12C,1
Table2 contains the below data:
Code:
value,result
1,12
1,24
1,56
1,423
1,32
1,3
I need to join based on value field.
My expected result is:
Code:
NAME,VALUE,RESULT
12A,1,12
12B,1,24
12C,1,56
12D,1,423
12E,1,32
12F,1,3
Depends on the number of records in the second table,we need to append A to Z at the end of the name field. The number of records will not exceed more than 26. How we can achieve this?
Thanks
Pandeeswaran

OK, now you give another useful information - that there always will be combinations of sums in table2 to match the values in table1. (It is difficult to help when you tell the specs one at a time :-) )
But it is not easy, because the code really will have to try and consider all possible combinations and then "choosing the right one" - this is easy for us humans, but not easy to encode in programming logic.
I have made an attempt:
SQL> set linesize 120
SQL> with table1 as (
2     select 'A1' name, 123 id, 150 value from dual union all
3     select 'A2' name, 123 id, 200 value from dual union all
4     select 'A3' name, 123 id, 300 value from dual
5 ), table2 as (
6     select 123 id, 100 value from dual union all
7     select 123 id, 100 value from dual union all
8     select 123 id, 50 value from dual union all
9     select 123 id, 100 value from dual union all
10     select 123 id, 100 value from dual union all

I cannot really think of a reasonably simple way to do it in SQL alone. Maybe using the MODEL clause would be possible, but not trivial. It is possible it would be easier to solve this in PL/SQL by iterating through a couple of arrays and intelligently trying the different combinations, rather than brute-force creating all combinations in a huge piece of SQL.
I am sorry, Pandeesh, but I can not think of a solution easily.
I might be able to do something if I fiddled with the problem for a couple of days, but that would be beyond the scope of this forum. That would be a consulting job rather than a bit of forum help :-)

How to join two tables

hi
how to join two tables using inner join if the first table has two primary keys and second table has 3 primary keys

Would describe type of joins in ABAP, which might differ with other joins.
The join syntax represents a recursively nestable join expression. A join expression consists of a left-hand and a right- hand side, which are joined either by means of INNER JOIN or LEFT OUTER JOIN. Depending on the type of join, a join expression can be either an inner (INNER) or an outer (LEFT OUTER) join. Every join expression can be enclosed in round brackets. If a join expression is used, the SELECT command circumvents SAP buffering.
On the left-hand side, either a single database table, a view dbtab_left, or a join expression join can be specified. On the right-hand side, a single database table or a view dbtab_right as well as join conditions join_cond can be specified after ON. In this way, a maximum of 24 join expressions that join 25 database tables or views with each other can be specified after FROM.
AS can be used to specify an alternative table name tabalias for each of the specified database table names or for every view. A database table or a view can occur multiple times within a join expression and, in this case, have various alternative names.
The syntax of the join conditions join_cond is the same as that of the sql_cond conditions after the addition WHERE, with the following differences:
At least one comparison must be specified after ON.
Individual comparisons may be joined using AND only.
All comparisons must contain a column in the database table or the view dbtab_right on the right-hand side as an operand.
The following additions not be used: NOT, LIKE, IN.
No sub-queries may be used.
For outer joins, only equality comparisons (=, EQ) are possible.
If an outer join occurs after FROM, the join condition of every join expression must contain at least one comparison between columns on the left-hand and the right-hand side.
In outer joins, all comparisons that contain columns as operands in the database table or the view dbtab_right on the right-hand side must be specified in the corresponding join condition. In the WHERE condition of the same SELECT command, these columns are not allowed as operands.
Resulting set for inner join
The inner join joins the columns of every selected line on the left- hand side with the columns of all lines on the right-hand side that jointly fulfil the join_cond condition. A line in the resulting set is created for every such line on the right-hand side. The content of the column on the left-hand side may be duplicated in this case. If none of the lines on the right-hand side fulfils the join_cond condition, no line is created in the resulting set.
Resulting set for outer join
The outer join basically creates the same resulting set as the inner join, with the difference that at least one line is created in the resulting set for every selected line on the left-hand side, even if no line on the right-hand side fulfils the join_cond condition. The columns on the right-hand side that do not fulfil the join_cond condition are filled with null values.
Note
If the same column name occurs in several database tables in a join expression, they have to be identified in all remaining additions of the SELECT statement by using the column selector ~.
Example
Join the columns carrname, connid, fldate of the database tables scarr, spfli and sflight by means of two inner joins. A list is created of the flights from p_cityfr to p_cityto. Alternative names are used for every table.
PARAMETERS: p_cityfr TYPE spfli-cityfrom,
p_cityto TYPE spfli-cityto.
DATA: BEGIN OF wa,
fldate TYPE sflight-fldate,
carrname TYPE scarr-carrname,
connid TYPE spfli-connid,
END OF wa.
DATA itab LIKE SORTED TABLE OF wa
WITH UNIQUE KEY fldate carrname connid.
SELECT ccarrname pconnid f~fldate
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE itab
FROM ( ( scarr AS c
INNER JOIN spfli AS p ON pcarrid = ccarrid
AND p~cityfrom = p_cityfr
AND p~cityto = p_cityto )
INNER JOIN sflight AS f ON fcarrid = pcarrid
AND fconnid = pconnid ).
LOOP AT itab INTO wa.
WRITE: / wa-fldate, wa-carrname, wa-connid.
ENDLOOP.
Example
Join the columns carrid, carrname and connid of the database tables scarr and spfli using an outer join. The column connid is set to the null value for all flights that do not fly from p_cityfr. This null value is then converted to the appropriate initial value when it is transferred to the assigned data object. The LOOP returns all airlines that do not fly from p_cityfr.
PARAMETERS p_cityfr TYPE spfli-cityfrom.
DATA: BEGIN OF wa,
carrid TYPE scarr-carrid,
carrname TYPE scarr-carrname,
connid TYPE spfli-connid,
END OF wa,
itab LIKE SORTED TABLE OF wa
WITH NON-UNIQUE KEY carrid.
SELECT scarrid scarrname p~connid
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE itab
FROM scarr AS s
LEFT OUTER JOIN spfli AS p ON scarrid = pcarrid
AND p~cityfrom = p_cityfr.
LOOP AT itab INTO wa.
IF wa-connid = '0000'.
WRITE: / wa-carrid, wa-carrname.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
