Formatted Select Query

The following select query returns data in green.  How do I format to return the way it is formatted in red?
Basically, If FIELD1 is 'Customer A' and FIELD2 is 'Gas' then I want to return 'New Customer' in FIELD1 and 'Gas' in FIELD2.  If FIELD1 is 'Customer E' and FIELD2 is 'Total' then it should return 'E Discharge' in FIELD1 and 'Prod_Discharge' in FIELD2.
Please let me know if my question doesn't make sense or need clarification.
SELECT
DECODE(FIELD1, 'New', 'A', 'Old', 'E', 'Term', 'F', FIELD1)
,DECODE(FIELD2, 'Prod', 'Gas', FIELD2)
FROM Customers
FIELD1                  FIELD2   
Customer A           Gas          
Customer A           Oil     
Customer E           Total          
Customer F           Total   
Need to format as follows:
FIELD1                  FIELD2       
New Customer       Gas          
New Customer       Oil      
E Discharges         Prod_Discharged          
F Discharges         Prod_Discharged

I have added two fields, CustID and Status, to the query and get an error  "FROM keyword not found where expected"
SELECT
CustID,
CASE WHEN field1 = 'Customer A' AND field2 = 'Gas'   THEN 'New Customer'
            WHEN field1 = 'Customer E' AND field2 = 'Total' THEN 'E Discharge'
          ELSE field1
       END AS FIELD1
     , CASE WHEN field1 = 'Customer E' AND field2 = 'Total' THEN 'Prod_Discharge'
          ELSE field2
       END AS FIELD2
'Status
FROM Customers

  • How to display data in a required format by SQL Select Query?

    Hi,
    i have a table named HR_PAYSLIP consisting of 4 columns empno, month, year, basic pay.
    well i like to display the month wise basic salary
    through a select query from the table
    like this format;
    EMPNO JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC
    00094 122 153 145 224 245 545 114 544 444 111 555 222
    00095 233 123 145 224 205 545 114 444 444 111 555 222
    00096 163 123 145 224 215 545 114 551 444 111 555 222
    00097 154 123 145 294 255 545 114 144 444 111 555 222
    conditions:
    where condition: where year = 2007
    the employee no may be more and that must be displayed only one time like above for year,
    and if the basic salary is zero for a month then it should be displayed as zero for a particular month as below
    eg:
    EMPNO, JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC
    00094 122 153 0 224 245 545 114 544 444 111 555 222
    Table Structure:
    EMPNO NUMBER(10)
    YEAR NUMBER(4)
    MONTH NUMBER(2)
    BASIC_PAY NUMBER(15)
    Pls note: Month is stored in the table as 1 to 12.

Must be known at the parsing time itself. But in your case i dont think the number of columns will be limited to 2 (10 and 20) there could be many more.
    You can search this forum to see how to PIVOT your data. There are lot of example. You can also try dynamic pivot. Its all in here, just search.

  • Select Query resulting in Scientific Notation

    Hello all,
    I am running a Select query through a batch file that extracts data from an Oracle database. Several of the fields that I am extracting from contain numbers that are up to 38 digits long. When I extract the data, it converts the numbers into scientific notation and it is important for me to have the entire field. Is there something I can change to my query that will pull the data in its entire form? This is what I'm running now:
    select * FROM ML.APPT where APPTDATE >= to_date('01/1/2010','mm/dd/yyyy'
    I apologize in advance if this has been answered already.
    Thanks!

    >
    When the extractor finishes, it returns the data into a flat file.
    don't quite understand the TO_CHAR function. Does this function mean I need to say something like this: select "TO_CHAR('column name', 99999999999999999999999999999999999999" FROM ML.APPT where APPTDATE >= to_date('01/1/2010','mm/dd/yyyy')
    >
    Yes- if the tool you use to extract the data (your 'extractor') is converting the numeric data to a string then it is responsible for creating the string in the proper format. If the number is an integer that can have as many digits as you have '9's in your sample format string then that is what you need to do.
    Here is how sql*plus (Oracle's tool) will display the data using default settings

    SQL>
    ----- TOAD will display something similiar but the default uses more decimal digits in the scientific notation data
    NO_FORMAT,WITH_FORMAT
    1.23456789012346E37, 12345678901234567890123456789012345678You can either format the numeric data in the query using TO_CHAR or the 'extractor' can do it when it converts the data to a string.

  • How to club 2 queries in one formatted search query

    But I am not able to club these queries on one formatted search query can anybody help to group it in one formatted search query....
    Thanks and Regards,
    Atul Joshi
    Edited by: Atul Joshi on Dec 23, 2008 5:20 PM

    Hi Atul,
    You could define the quey like this
    SELECT
    CASE
             WHEN $[OWTR.series]='46' THEN '08'
             WHEN $[OWTR.series]='45' then '02'
    end
    from OWTR

    Excellent piece of follow-up on my first suggestion.
    I nearly made a comment about how the plan doesn't show Bloom filter pruning either - and then I realised why not. The plan you've shown us comes from Explain Plan with literal values present; the trace file shows bind variables with names that are generated when cursor_sharing is set to force or similar - so the run-time plan and the plan from explain plan are almost guaranteed to be different.
    Oracle support will need you to supply the plan you get from trying to run the query and then making a call to dbms_xplan.display_cursor() - dbms_xplan in 10g | Oracle Scratchpad If you do this I think you'll find that the pstart/pstop columns contain entries like :BF0000, and you may even find operations link PX JOIN FILTER CREATE / PX JOIN FILTER USE
    A couple of generic notes:
    if a query does sufficient work to merit parallel execution, then it's usually better to supply the best possible information to the optimizer, which means using literals rather than bind variables - you could try executing the query with the hint /*+ cursor_sharing_exact */ to stop Oracle from turning your literals into binds; it might be the presence of bind variables that's making the optimizer choose a path that has to include bloom filter pruning in your case.
    Where you have the to_date() call you've used a four-digit year - which is a very good thing and helps the optimizer - but it's also a good idea to include an explicit format string as well: with a four-digit year this probably won't make any difference, but it avoids any risk of ambiguity for the optimizer.
    I made a comment about the P->S stage and bottlenecks - I spent a couple more minutes looking at the plan, and I see the optimizer has used concatentation: in effect it has run three query blocks one after the other and fed the results to the query co-ordinator - in this case the P->S would make no difference to the end-user response time there's always a final P->S to the coordinator, you just happen to have three of them.

    Thanks for your reply. But +"select count(*) from tsfhead"+ is hanging and +"select * from tsfhead where create_date = '26-OCT-12' "+ is showing records.It might be showing records, but not necessarily the correct records.
    As sb points out, you are treating dates as strings rather than the DATE datatype. That means you could be querying the wrong data, and your query is also not safe in different environments. It could also effect the query execution plan. Also, as pointed out, you should be ideally using 4 digit years. There were many headaches caused by the use of 2 digit years that most companies corrected as part of the millenium bug fixes prior to the year 2000... well over a decade ago, and most good designs now ensure that 4 digit years are used as standard.
    So your query would be better written as:
    select * from tsfhead where create_date = TO_DATE('26-OCT-2012','DD-MON-YYYY')When you say:
    select count(*) from tsfhead... is hanging, you say the table has around 59000 rows in it, and in reality that's a small amount of records, so a count(*) shouldn't take long at all, even doing a full table scan.
    Post the explain plan for that simple count(*) query for us.

  • Using parameters in a select query sometimes not working

    I use parameters throughout my code - usually without problem, but for some reason in one case it does not return a result. When I modify the querystring to contain the value instead of using parameters it works. Is it because I'm secting a clob? or is it because I'm using a 9i ODP.net dll against a 10g database? this is c# 2.0
    here's the source code that does not work for me - REQUEST_DATA is a clob:
        public String loadRequest(String PSRNumber)
            String returnVal = null;
            ConnectionStringSettings connectionInfo = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["Scribe"];
            OracleConnection myConnection = new OracleConnection();
            String strSQL = "select PSR, REQUEST_DATA from stats.request where PSR = :PSR";
            try
                myConnection.ConnectionString = connectionInfo.ConnectionString;
                OracleCommand cmd = new OracleCommand(strSQL, myConnection);
                cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
                cmd.Parameters.Add("PSR", OracleDbType.Varchar2).Value = PSRNumber;
                myConnection.Open();
                OracleDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
                if (dr.Read())
                    returnVal = dr.GetOracleString(dr.GetOrdinal("REQUEST_DATA")).ToString();
                else
                    returnVal = null;
                dr.Dispose();
                cmd.Dispose();
            catch (OracleException ex)
                printError(ex.Message);
            finally
                myConnection.Close();
                myConnection.Dispose();
            return returnVal;
        }when I replace the line generating the sql, and remove the lines pertaining to parameters it works:
    String strSQL = String.Format("select PSR, REQUEST_DATA from stats.request where PSR = {0}", PSRNumber);
    I'm fine just using this as a workaround, but I need an explanation why the other does not work - I prefer to use parameters.

    I figured it out. thank you for your help in pointing me in the right direction.
    the problem was there was a trailing space in the data.
    when the data for that table is numeric for every record, the query allows me to leave out the single quotes. Trailing spaces do not seem to cause the database to see it as non-numeric - leaving out the quote still finds the record even if there is a trailing space.
    but when I put in the quote, it is not an exact string match, so it could not find the record. sometimes this flexibility gets me into trouble :\

  • How to compare dates in a select query in open sql

    Hi
                       How can I retrieve data pertaining to a specified date using a select query.

    How can I pass this in a select query,the below mentioned query did not fetch me any results.
    Select * from  DATEACCESS where DATETEST='2009-03-11'

    Hi
    Has ur date  problem resolved  ?
    If not resolved u can do the following
    As u already have sql date today declared . You want to get the data depending on that date
    As ur query is
    if( today != null)
    String query2 = select * from DATEACCESS where DATETEST<= ?

    If this also does not work just print the date and check in which format is it returning u .

  • Select query is not working in BDC Program

    Hi,
    I am working in BDC for update valuation class for T-code mm01.Actually In this BDC i am using two recoding based on material type.
    i am using two internal table : I_DATA and ITAB
    Use I_DATA to hold excle data in which material No, plant , valuation type , valuation No. and ITAB for material No, material type Only.
    So, i am fetching material Type ( MARA-MTART ) through select query. But Select query is not working. and also i did check MARA table according that  Material Number then  material no. exit in Mara Table.
    Note : at run time  I_DATA have 1 row but ITAB have 0 row ....
    DATA: BEGIN OF I_DATA OCCURS 0,
    MATNR TYPE MARA-MATNR,
    WERKS TYPE MARC-WERKS,
    BWTAR TYPE RMMG1-BWTAR,
    VERPR TYPE BMMH1-VERPR,
    BKLAS TYPE MBEW-BKLAS,
    STATUS TYPE C,
    END OF I_DATA.
    DATA : BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0,
    MATNR LIKE MARA-MATNR,
    MTART LIKE MARA-MTART,
    END OF ITAB.
    Loop at I_DATA.
    select matnr mtart from mara into table itab where matnr = I_DATA-matnr.
    endloop.
    Guide me..........

    If you use your
    Loop at I_DATA.
      select matnr mtart from mara into table itab
        where matnr = I_DATA-matnr.
    endloop.
    At end of loop, itab will only contain the result of the last select, so use a
    Loop at I_DATA.
      select matnr mtart from mara APPENDING table itab
        where matnr = I_DATA-matnr.
    endloop.
    better
    if I_DATA[] is not initial.
      select matnr mtart from mara into table itab
        FOR ALL ENTRIES IN i_data where matnr = i_data-matnr.
    endif.
    Some Remarks
    - If actually required (where does I_DATA come from, is it an external format, you need the internal value to use in SELECT statement), check via SE11 the correct [conversion exit|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/35/26b217afab52b9e10000009b38f974/content.htm] associated with domain MATNR (Is it truly ALPHA, and not something like MATN1, so [CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_INPUT|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?query=conversion_exit_matn1_input])
    - You could try to use BAPI like [BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?query=bapi_material_savedata] and not BDC

    Hi Srinivas,
    You can either create the structure or can directly write the SQL_QUERY or| SQL_DML  statement where you will specifty the action SQL_QUERY | SQL_DML .

  • Dynamic From statement in select query and/or outer join not working

    Dear Experts, I have a select query where the select columns are dynamic, the where condition is also dynamic. It is of the below format:
    Select (dynamic columns) INTO <wa>
    FROM a inner join b on af1 = bf1
    inner join c on af2 = cf2......
    WHERE (dynamic conditios)
    ORDER BY ( dynamic sort condition).
    Now I have to include some tables (dynamically depending on the user input) in the inner join statement which will give description for the selected fields. And these database tables may or may no be empty. So in this case, my select query will not return any data if these tables are empty. And I dont want that.
    I tried using outer join for the extra tables but it gave me a runtime error. I also tried forming the inner join statement dynamically but it was not supporting.
    Kindly give me pointers.
    Thanks

    Hey thanks for the reply, but the problem is not solved.
    I am already using  ( fileds, value) like table in my where condition and the select statement was working properly.
    the problem is that now I have to include some tables in the join statement which can be empty and so i want to use Outer join.
    But I am getting a runtime error as below:
    Error analysis
        An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
        The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_DYNAMIC_OSQL_SYNTAX', was not
         caught in
        procedure "ZATSCSNG_RFC_READ_TABLE" "(FUNCTION)", nor was it propagated by a
         RAISING clause.
        Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
        exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
        The reason for the exception is:
        The running ABAP program wanted to execute a SELECT statement whose
        WHERE condition was (partly) specified dynamically. The part that is
        specified in an internal table at runtime is compared to a field of the
        right table of an LEFT OUTER JOIN. Such comparisons are not supported by
         all database systems and are therefore not allowed.
