When I run the above query I get a problem.
I am expecting to see is a merge of all the attribute_id's and their values.
The query does not appear to be merging the data as intended.
My understanding of the full outer join is that its a combination of left and outer joins,
so the above query is intended to return with the total number of unique attributes
and their appropriate values
a) I have a bug in the Sql
b) This is an oracle bug
c) My understanding is incorrect
Please Help

How do you expect a full outer join operation when you have given --
where c.partner_id=710326;According to your supplied data - i don't think your query can perform that full outer join operation because of that filtration. Just remove that last condition and checked it. You will get your desired result - hopefully.
"It's like you want to view the things by closing down your both eyes". Do you think it will pay?

Full outer join --- bug? Urgent

Hi,
I have a simple mapping using 2 source tables and doing an full outer join. While executing the mapping it is throwing me out with an error --

We are using Oracle 9.2.0.4 AND OWB Clinet 9.2.0.2.8 and runtime repository 9.2.0.2.0.
Any help on this appreciated?

Strange bug with Full Outer Join

Hi guys,
can you please confirm this behaviour on 11gR2? It used to work fine on 10gR1.
Small test case:
create table TEST_OBJECT_METADATA
project_name VARCHAR2(30 CHAR) not null,
object_id     NUMBER not null
create table TEST_OBJECT_INFO
object_id          NUMBER not null,
object_type        VARCHAR2(30) not null
create table TEST_SUPPORTED_OBJECTS
object_type    VARCHAR2(30 CHAR) not null,
enabled        NUMBER(1));
INSERT INTO TEST_OBJECT_METADATA VALUES ('NEW',1);
INSERT INTO TEST_OBJECT_INFO VALUES (1, 'TABLE');
INSERT INTO TEST_SUPPORTED_OBJECTS VALUES ('TABLE',1);
COMMIT;When I execute the following query:
WITH old_project AS
(SELECT oi.object_type,
         oi.object_id
    FROM test_object_metadata om,
         test_object_info     oi
   WHERE om.object_id = oi.object_id
     AND project_name = 'OLD'),
new_project AS
(SELECT oi.object_type,
         oi.object_id
    FROM test_object_metadata om,
         test_object_info     oi
   WHERE om.object_id = oi.object_id
     AND project_name = 'NEW')
SELECT src.object_type,
           t.enabled
FROM (SELECT nvl(o.object_type, n.object_type) object_type
          FROM old_project o
          FULL OUTER JOIN new_project n
            ON o.object_id = n.object_id) src,
       test_supported_objects t
WHERE src.object_type = t.object_type(+);I get the following output:
OBJECT_TYPE     ENABLED
TABLE             So, the outer join to test_supported_objects does not match.
But if I force the FULL OUTER JOIN to run first using rownum:
WITH old_project AS
(SELECT oi.object_type,
         oi.object_id
    FROM test_object_metadata om,
         test_object_info     oi
   WHERE om.object_id = oi.object_id
     AND project_name = 'OLD'),
new_project AS
(SELECT oi.object_type,
         oi.object_id
    FROM test_object_metadata om,
         test_object_info     oi
   WHERE om.object_id = oi.object_id
     AND project_name = 'NEW')
SELECT src.object_type,
           t.enabled
FROM (SELECT nvl(o.object_type, n.object_type) object_type,
                       rownum
          FROM old_project o
          FULL OUTER JOIN new_project n
            ON o.object_id = n.object_id) src,
       test_supported_objects t
WHERE src.object_type = t.object_type(+);I get the expected output:
OBJECT_TYPE     ENABLED
TABLE             1 Thanks in advance.

Without mixing works fine:
WITH old_project AS
(SELECT oi.object_type,
         oi.object_id
    FROM test_object_metadata om,
         test_object_info     oi
   WHERE om.object_id = oi.object_id
     AND project_name = 'OLD'),
new_project AS
(SELECT oi.object_type,
         oi.object_id
    FROM test_object_metadata om,
         test_object_info     oi
   WHERE om.object_id = oi.object_id
     AND project_name = 'NEW')
SELECT src.object_type,
       t.enabled
FROM (SELECT nvl(o.object_type, n.object_type) object_type
          FROM old_project o,
               new_project n
          where o.object_id = n.object_id(+)
          UNION
          SELECT nvl(o.object_type, n.object_type) object_type
          FROM old_project o,
               new_project n
          where o.object_id(+) = n.object_id) src,
       test_supported_objects t
WHERE src.object_type = t.object_type(+);but there shouldn't be any restrictions on mixing them, right?

Using full outer join of subqueries named using with clause

Hi,
I am trying to create a view which is having 2 subqueries vol1 & vol2 with WITH clause. I am joining those 2 subqueries in the main query with FULL OUTER JOIN.
When i compile that view in a tool like pl/sql developer, It has been compiled successfully.
But when i call the view creation script from SQL command prompt, It is throwing error as
from vol1 FULL JOIN vol2 o ON (vol1.ct_reference = vol2.ct_reference and vol1.table_name = vol2.table_name
ERROR at line 29:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
Kindly advise whats going wrong.

that's line 29. Maybe you get a better idea if you strip your operation of all the unneccessary elements until it works.
There are some known bugs with subquery factoring (aka with clause) and also with ANSI join syntax, but it is hard to tell what happens here based on your description. But one thing is strange - if it is not a result of formatting (not formatting): I would expect the asterisk beneath the unknown table and not beneath the key word FULL.
P.S.: my editor makes me think it's rather a proportional font thing. Have I already said that I don't like proportional font for SQL code examples?

Ora-22905:cannot access rows from a non-nested ...(during full outer join)

Greetings Gurus,
I'm getting an ORA-22905 when I try and do a full outer join in the following function. If I include the commented lines in the perstren_diff_recs2 function I get the error. Both halfs of the union query work by themselves. When I union them bam error. Also, when I use the full outer join syntax the Oracle session craps the bed with a end of file communication error. That is why I'm using the simulated full outer join.
My goal was to abstract the XML in my queries. The results from the pipelined function is a delta between what is in the XML document and a relational base table.

Oracle bug when executing the query in a function

Full outer Join:ORA-01790

Hi All,
The issue may be silly, but we cant make it out:
    DB : Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - ProdWe are running the below query with no issues:
select t1.text,t2.text text2,t1.line,decode(upper(t1.text),upper(t2.text),1,0) flg
from
   (select text,row_number() over(order by line) line

Thanks,

Not sure what is wrong with your version. It might have to do with row_number not working on an empty row (outer joined).
How about this alternative?
The approach is a bit different, but it uses only one access to the user_source view.
select s.lineNo, min(s.text1) text1, min(s.text2) text2, decode(upper(min(s.text1)), upper(min(s.text2)), 1, 0) flag
from
(select decode(u.name, 'COLL_MVIEW_REFRESH_PROC_LBK', u.text) text1

FULL OUTER JOIN In InfoSet

Hi, all
Is it possible to make FULL OUTER JOIN in BI InfoSet?
If no, another question - is it possible to switch base InfoProvider? I have an InfoSet with InfoCube1 and DSO1 which I can outer join. I want to outer join InfoCube1 , not DSO1 that's why I need to switch them in the InfoSet.

Hi,
In BI 7.0 Infoset has given chance to include an Info cube also,maximum you can include 2 info Cubes only in a infoset.
check the below link which helps you in understanding of the join conditions so that you can apply to your scenario.

Query with FULL OUTER JOIN , help pleaseeeeeeeeeeee...

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to write a query for a report in Oracle SQL, but i just can't figure out how to do it.
I'm using Oracle 10g release 1.0 database and i execute my queris in SQL* PLUS ( eventually i'm gonna use them in Oracle Report Builder ) .
here's what i have:
i have four tables that are used for our inventory application. lets call them INCOMMING , INCOMMING_ITEMS , OUTGOING , OUTGOING_ITEMS.
as you may have guessed , INCOMMING_ITEMS is the detail table for INCOMMING ( joined by IID column) and also OUTGOING_ITEMS is the detail table for OUTGOING ( joined by OID column ).
here is the structure of them :
INCOMMING
IID varchar2
CDATE date
INCOMMING_ITEM
IID varchar2
PART_NO number
QTY number
OUTGOING
OID varchar2
CDATE date
OUTGOING_ITEM
OID varchar2
PART_NO number
QTY number
now , the query i want, should return part_no , cdate , sum of OUTGOING qty , sum of INCOMMING qty .
the result of the query should be sth like this :
part_no     cdate     O_qty     I_qty
100     01/05/06     10     0
100     01/05/07     20     60
200     01/06/02     0     50
300     01/06/02     30     40
this means that for some dates and for some parts, i may not have INCOMMING or OUTGOING data, but if at least one of the 2 last columns has a non-zero data, i should show the row ( like the first and third rows of my example result), and if both have data for the same PART_NO and the same CDATE, both should be showed in the same row. ( like the second row in my example result)
i tried so much and came up with several huge and also time consuming queries, but then i read abt FULL OUTER JOIN somewhere and tried using that. here is what i came up with :
SELECT
PART_NO , CDATE , sum(II.QTY) I_QTY , SUM (OI.QTY) O_QTY
FROM
     (OUTGOING O INNER JOIN OUTGOING_ITEM OI USING ( OID ) )
FULL OUTER JOIN
     (INCOMMING I INNER JOIN INCOMMING_ITEM II USING ( IID ) )
ON ( I.CDATE = O.CDATE AND II.PART_NO = OI.PART_NO)
WHERE
I.CDATE = :PARAMETER1
AND O.CDATE = :PARAMETER1
GROUP BY
PART_NO , CDATE
this query is short and fast , but the results r not what i expected. i mean, although i have used FULL OUTER JOIN in the query , but the results i get r sth like this :
part_no     cdate     O_qty     I_qty
100     01/05/07     20     60
300     01/06/02     30     40
which means only the rows that has both values are returned.
any change i make to this query would make the SQL* PLUS hang , like when i use the cartesian product of two large tables, so i guess my changes wheren't in the right direction.
i think its possible to write this query using FULL OUTER JOIN syntax, but i just can't find it.
Can anybody pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee help me?
thanx in advance,
Maryam.

Note: I wrote this on the fly -- hope there is no syntax errors, otherwise forgive me -- but you get the idea..
select
fromUnionAll.cdate, fromUnionAll.part_no,
sum(fromUnionAll.O_qty) O_qty,
sum(fromUnionAll.I_qty) I_qty
from
select
iinner.cdate, iinner.part_no, 0 O_qty, iinner.I_qty
from
select
i.cdate, ii.part_no,
/* added the case only for the extreme case when there is
no record anywhere for the given CDATE in INCOMMING_item */
sum( ( case when ii.qty is not null then ii.qty else 0 end) ) I_qty
from

where
i.iid = ii.iid (+)
group by i.cdate, ii.part_no

How can I join/Full outer join two different columns instead of union all?

Hi,
I have a scenario as the following:
I am performing set operations using obiee 11g where I want to take values from two different criteria. Howwver, I dont want union to take place, instead i want join to take place to see all the columns in the output.
For that, I tried changing the sql in advanced tab and tried to put full outer join instead of union all but its not allowing me to change.
How can I achieve it? please help.
Thanks.

Hi,
My problem is that I am unable to modify the sql in advanced tab. Probably due to some security reason,it's restricting me to change.
Can you suggest me a way to change it?
Thanks..

Yes, it's possible.
Search for "full outer join" in the online manuals

In the SQL Reference you can find an example

Full outer join unexpected results

Warning, long message - I've searched the forums and found nothing similar. I've cut out as much as possible. We have been given the following schema to work with:
CREATE TABLE CALLS (
TRUNKIN VARCHAR2 (10),
TRUNKOUT VARCHAR2 (10),
DURATION FLOAT)
Here is some test data:
insert into calls values(null, 'a', 3);
insert into calls values(null, 'a', 2);
insert into calls values('a', null, 1);
insert into calls values(null, 'a', 0);
insert into calls values(null, 'a', 0);
insert into calls values(null, 'a', 7);
insert into calls values(null, null, 0);
This is horribly unnormalized, but basically this table represent phone calls. trunkin and trunkout represent the two ends, and duration is length of a call. While obviously every call has two ends, the nulls above represent ends we don't care about in this example.
The goal is to end up with data that looks like this. In English, we want the in and out summary statistics for each trunk to be summarized into a single row. (Sorry, these are supposed to be columns, but they got wrapped, so I reposted them as rows):
TRUNKIN a
IN_CALLS_ATTEMPTED 1
IN_CALLS_COMPLETED 1
IN_AVERAGE_DURATION 1
TRUNKOUT a
OUT_CALLS_ATTEMPTED 5
OUT_CALLS_COMPLETED 3
OUT_AVERAGE_DURATION 4
Indeed, with the data given above, these are the results returned with the query at the end of this message. However, when I changed the one non-null trunkin value to null, I got very strange results. First, I independently ran the two subqueries. The first of course returns no rows, the second returns 1 with the same out values above; this is exactly what I would expect. However, when I run the full query, I get **5** rows back, each with just the trunkout column set to "a" and **all** other columns set to null. This makes no sense to me. The 5 rows are obviously the 5 rows from the original data set where trunkout = "a", but I'm not full outer joining those; I'm full outer joining the result of the group by, which only has 1 row. But even given that I'm getting 5 rows back, shouldn't all five of those have the remaining out columns filled in with the values above?
Here is the query:
select
from
SELECT
trunkin as trunk,
COUNT(*) AS in_calls_attempted,
SUM
CASE
WHEN duration > 0 THEN 1
ELSE 0
END
) AS in_calls_completed,
SUM(duration)/
SUM
CASE
WHEN duration > 0 THEN 1
ELSE 0
END
) AS in_average_duration
FROM CALLS
WHERE trunkin IS NOT NULL
GROUP BY trunkin
) callsin
full outer join
SELECT
trunkout as trunk,
COUNT(*) AS out_calls_attempted,
SUM
CASE
WHEN duration > 0 THEN 1
ELSE 0
END
) AS out_calls_completed,
SUM(duration)/
SUM
CASE
WHEN duration > 0 THEN 1
ELSE 0
END
) AS out_average_duration
FROM CALLS
WHERE trunkout IS NOT NULL
GROUP BY trunkout
) callsout
on callsin.trunk = callsout.trunk;

I am not entirely sure why you are getting the results you are, but I strongly suspect that it is a result of outer joining on null columns. I would write the query as follows to avoid the outer join problem. The CASE statements in the outer query around the average duration calulations avoid the divide by zero error that would occur when some trunk has only in or out calls.
SELECT trunk,SUM(in_calls_attempted) in_calls_attempted,
       SUM(in_calls_completed) in_calls_completed,
       CASE WHEN SUM(in_calls_completed) <> 0 THEN
            SUM(in_duration)/SUM(in_calls_completed)
            ELSE 0 END ave_in_duration,
       SUM(out_calls_attempted) out_calls_attempted,
       SUM(out_calls_completed) out_calls_completed,
       CASE WHEN SUM(out_calls_completed) <> 0 THEN
            SUM(out_duration)/SUM(out_calls_completed)
            ELSE 0 END ave_out_duration
FROM (
   SELECT trunkin trunk,COUNT(*) in_calls_attempted,
          SUM(CASE WHEN duration > 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) in_calls_completed,
          SUM(duration) in_duration,0 out_calls_attempted,
          0 out_calls_completed,0 out_duration
   FROM calls
   GROUP BY trunkin
   UNION ALL
   SELECT trunkout trunk,0 in_calls_attempted,0 in_calls_completed,
          0 in_duration,COUNT(*) out_calls_attempted,
          SUM(CASE WHEN duration > 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) out_calls_completed,
          SUM(duration) out_duration
   FROM calls
   GROUP BY trunkout)

Help Required in full outer Join

I feel the below query can be changed to full outer join. But, I've not been able to do so.
I require your help in changing it to full outer join. My current query is

I do not think that query is doing what you think that it is doing - on first inspection, it was not doing what I thought either due to the order in which the UNION and MINUS operators are performed. If the FILECREATEDT column is defined as a DATE, your query is relying on an implicit date conversion - in such a case, you should replace:
filecreatedt='18-feb-2011'With:
filecreatedt=TO_DATE('18-feb-2011','DD-MON-YYYY')Now, building a simple model to explain what is happening, we create two tables with 10 rows each. The first table has C1 values that increase by 2, while the second has C1 values that increase by 3:
CREATE TABLE T1 AS
SELECT
ROWNUM*2 C1,
TRUNC(SYSDATE)+ROWNUM*2 C2
FROM
DUAL
CONNECT BY
LEVEL<=10;
CREATE TABLE T2 AS
SELECT
ROWNUM*3 C1,
TRUNC(SYSDATE)+ROWNUM*3 C2
FROM
DUAL
CONNECT BY
LEVEL<=10;It appears that the intended result of your query is to obtain a distinct list of those rows that are in each table that are not in both tables - the UNION ALL minus the intersection of the rows in two tables. However, that is not what you are achieving with that query. To demonstrate, the two halves of your query:
SELECT
C1,
C2
FROM
T1
MINUS
SELECT
C1,
C2
FROM
T2;

21 19-MAR-11
24 22-MAR-11
27 25-MAR-11
30 28-MAR-11As can be seen by the above, each half returned 7 rows - there are 7 rows in each table that is not in the other table. Common sense would state that if we UNION these two results (assuming no duplicate values in each table), we would see 14 rows:
SELECT
C1,
C2
FROM
T1
MINUS
SELECT
C1,
C2

T2

30 28-MAR-11Only 7 rows? Let's try again with the help of inline views to control the order in which the MINUS and UNION operators are processed:

30 28-MAR-11Note that the above returned 14 rows. We can do the same using just two outer joins:
SELECT
T1.C1,
T1.C2
FROM
T1,
T2
WHERE

Join-types right & full outer join with Datasets

Hello
I use Crystal Reports XI Release 2 with ADO.NET Datasets as datasource. In the "Database-Expert" I try to set the "Link-Options". Unfortunately are the join-types "right outer join" and "full outer join" disabled.
- Is this because of the datasource Dataset?
- Is there e possibility to build the Dataset so I can use this two joins?
- If not, is it possible in a newer version?
Thanks, T.Fitzi

Hi
I think this is the problem. I don't connect directly to a database. My application (C#) provieds Crystal Report with a dataset. So all my data is in this dataset.
Are this joins in the new version stil disabled?
Regards, Thomas

You must be aware that you must cascade full outer joins
with
t1 as
(select 1 key,1.1 data from dual union all
