  ) ;basically in tbl_ate_jun it has all the user ids (person_sso)
Im trying to generate a report that has all person_sso numbers in first column.
Second column have applied_hours, then office_hours, then programs_hours, then total_hours, then diff_hours (difference).
here is the code so far but i just cant get it right, it never shows all sso's, each select individually works fine, but cant combine, doesnt work right.
select a.person_sso,NVL(sum(b.applied_hours),0),NVL(sum(c.office_hours),0),NVL(sum(d.programs_hours),0),NVL(sum(e.total_hours),0),NVL(sum(f.diff_hours),0)
from
tbl_ate_jun a,
(SELECT
tbl_ate_jun.person_sso as applied_sso,
tbl_ate_jun.Voucher_Hours as applied_hours
FROM
tbl_pd_jun,
tbl_ate_jun
WHERE
tbl_ate_jun.voucher_code IN (select project_number from tbl_pd_jun
where Office_FSR IS NULL AND Programs_FSR IS NULL)
and tbl_ate_jun.voucher_code=tbl_pd_jun.project_number
)b,
(SELECT
tbl_ate_jun.person_sso as office_sso,
tbl_ate_jun.Voucher_Hours as office_hours
FROM
tbl_pd_jun,
tbl_ate_jun
WHERE
tbl_pd_jun.Project_Number=tbl_ate_jun.Voucher_Code AND tbl_pd_jun.Office_FSR = 'Y'
)c,
(SELECT
tbl_ate_jun.person_sso as programs_sso,
tbl_ate_jun.Voucher_Hours as programs_hours
FROM
tbl_pd_jun,
tbl_ate_jun
WHERE
tbl_pd_jun.Project_Number=tbl_ate_jun.Voucher_Code AND tbl_pd_jun.Programs_FSR = 'Y' 
)d,
(SELECT
tbl_ate_jun.person_sso as total_sso,
tbl_ate_jun.Voucher_Hours as total_hours
from
tbl_ate_jun
)e,
(SELECT
tbl_ate_jun.person_sso as diff_sso,
tbl_ate_jun.Voucher_Hours as diff_hours
from
tbl_ate_jun
WHERE voucher_code NOT IN (select project_number from tbl_pd_jun)
)f
where
a.person_sso=b.applied_sso
and a.person_sso=c.office_sso
and a.person_sso=d.programs_sso
and a.person_sso=e.total_sso
and a.person_sso=f.diff_sso
group by a.person_ssoplease help. not every column will be populated with a sum of data, some would be empty if it didnt apply to that sso.

Answer 1

I think an outer join will work so im not going to post all the sample data.
Can someone help with the syntax ? so i want to join all selects with a full outer join. i tried like this with 2 of them
select a.person_sso,b.applied_sso,b.applied_hours from
(tbl_ate_jun) a
full outer join
(SELECT
tbl_ate_jun.person_sso as applied_sso,
sum(tbl_ate_jun.Voucher_Hours) as applied_hours
FROM
tbl_pd_jun,
tbl_ate_jun
WHERE
tbl_ate_jun.voucher_code IN (select project_number from tbl_pd_jun
where Office_FSR IS NULL AND Programs_FSR IS NULL)
and tbl_ate_jun.voucher_code=tbl_pd_jun.project_number
group by tbl_ate_jun.person_sso)b on a.person_sso = b.applied_sso
but I get an error "No more data to read from socket"
