Help rewriting this XMLTable query.

Hi,
I rewrote this query:
     SELECT VALUE(k) ts_value,

            EXTRACTVALUE(VALUE(k), '/TS_850/BEG/BEG03') || '-' ||
            (SELECT N104
               FROM xmltable('/TS_850/GROUP_5/N1' passing VALUE(k) columns N101

48 rows selected.Now, I was wondering if you can have just one implementation of XMLTable in the query which will reduce the complexity of this. Both the queries looked like they gave me the same results.
Thank you,
Rahul.

It's quite hard to tune a query without seeing the table structure and available indices as well as relationship between each other but I'll try.
In your sql which you've given the table alias AD, you have this filter criteria
              AND    FIELD_NAME IN (
                     SELECT FIELD_NAME
                     FROM   APPLICATION_FIELDS
                     WHERE FIELD_TYPE IN ('Checkbox','Radio','Select','SelectM', 'RadioHoriz','RadioPara')
                     ) </br>
My question is, is FIELD_NAME a column in the APPLICATION_DATA table? If it is, try moving this clause outside of the current sub-query it is in, i.e. one more level up. It looks like you put them inside the wrong level.
I would also try converting this <COL> IN <SUB-QUERY> to a join, if that wouldn't affect the no. of rows returned. I can't tell for sure since I dont know the relationship between your tables.
It looks to me like you're doing this
SELECT <col list>
FROM   ( SELECT                                         -- LEVEL 1
         FROM   APPLICATION_DATA AD
         WHERE AD.APPLICAITON_ID IN (                  -- LEVEL 2
                SELECT
                FROM   APPLICATIONS A
                WHERE A.JOB_ID IN (
                       <SUBQUERY>
                AND    A.ACCOUNT_ID IN (
                       <SUBQUERY>
                AND FIELDNAME IN ( -- SHOULD BE INSIDE LEVEL1
<SUBQUERY>
       ) AD,
       ( SELECT ....
       ) FD

Need help in this sql query to use Case Statement

hi All,
I have the below query -
SELECT DISTINCT OFFC.PROV_ID
,OFFC.WK_DAY
,CASE
WHEN OFFC.WK_DAY ='MONDAY' THEN 1
WHEN OFFC.WK_DAY ='TUESDAY' THEN 2
WHEN OFFC.WK_DAY ='WEDNESDAY' THEN 3
WHEN OFFC.WK_DAY ='THURSDAY' THEN 4
WHEN OFFC.WK_DAY ='FRIDAY' THEN 5
WHEN OFFC.WK_DAY ='SATURDAY' THEN 6
WHEN OFFC.WK_DAY ='SUNDAY' THEN 7
END AS DOW
,OFFC.OFFC_OPENG_TIME
,OFFC.OFFC_CLSNG_TIME
FROM GGDD.PROV_OFFC_HR OFFC
WHERE OFFC.PROV_ID='0000600'
WITH UR;
this query is bringing results in 6 differnt rows with opening and closing time for each day separately. I want to generate the data in one row with each day having opening and closing time, so for 7 days, total 14 columns with opening and closing time. But i am not able to do that using case statement.
can somebody help me in achieving that.
thanks,
iamhere

Hi,
Welcome to the forum!
That's called a Pivot .
Instead of having 1CASE expression, have 14, one for the opening and one for the closing time each day, and do GROUP BY to combine them onto one row.
SELECT       OFFC.PROV_ID
,       MIN (CASE WHEN OFFC.WK_DAY ='MONDAY'    THEN OFFC.OFFC_OPENG_TIME END)     AS mon_opn
,       MIN (CASE WHEN OFFC.WK_DAY ='MONDAY'    THEN OFFC.OFFC_CLSNG_TIME END)     AS mon_cls
,       MIN (CASE WHEN OFFC.WK_DAY ='TUESDAY'   THEN OFFC.OFFC_OPENG_TIME END)     AS tue_opn
,       MIN (CASE WHEN OFFC.WK_DAY ='TUESDAY'   THEN OFFC.OFFC_CLSNG_TIME END)     AS tue_cls
FROM        GGDD.PROV_OFFC_HR OFFC
WHERE       OFFC.PROV_ID     = '0000600'
GROUP BY offc.prov_id
;This assumes there is (at most) only one row in the table for each distinct prov_id and weekday. If not, what do you want to do? Post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements) and the results you want from that data.
The staement above works in Oracle 8.1 and up, but there's a better way (SELECT ... PIVOT) available in Oracle 11. What version are you using? (It's always a good idea to include this when you post a question.)

It's quite hard to tune a query without seeing the table structure and available indices as well as relationship between each other but I'll try.
In your sql which you've given the table alias AD, you have this filter criteria
              AND    FIELD_NAME IN (
                     SELECT FIELD_NAME
                     FROM   APPLICATION_FIELDS
                     WHERE FIELD_TYPE IN ('Checkbox','Radio','Select','SelectM', 'RadioHoriz','RadioPara')
                     ) </br>
My question is, is FIELD_NAME a column in the APPLICATION_DATA table? If it is, try moving this clause outside of the current sub-query it is in, i.e. one more level up. It looks like you put them inside the wrong level.
I would also try converting this <COL> IN <SUB-QUERY> to a join, if that wouldn't affect the no. of rows returned. I can't tell for sure since I dont know the relationship between your tables.
It looks to me like you're doing this
SELECT <col list>
FROM   ( SELECT                                         -- LEVEL 1
         FROM   APPLICATION_DATA AD
         WHERE AD.APPLICAITON_ID IN (                  -- LEVEL 2
                SELECT
                FROM   APPLICATIONS A
                WHERE A.JOB_ID IN (
                       <SUBQUERY>
                AND    A.ACCOUNT_ID IN (
                       <SUBQUERY>
                AND FIELDNAME IN ( -- SHOULD BE INSIDE LEVEL1
<SUBQUERY>
       ) AD,
       ( SELECT ....
       ) FD
WHERE ....

What do you mean by "I have to write this query in Java"? Any ways the query will be run against a Oracle DB, correct?
Any ways using ROWNUM

hi peers,
here is my situation :
Field1 Field2 Field3
xa group1 req_id1
xb group2 req_id2
xc group3 req_id3
xa group4 req_id4
xb group5 req_id5
i need to pull only the group3 record that comes right away after group2. Req_id's are in chronological order and groupx are texts
: i.e : req_id1 < req_id2 < req_id3 <.....
in other terms, i need the record that comes after the re cord flagged by group2..knowing that req_id3 is right after req_id2.
any thoughts ?
thanks

Hi,
Use the analytic LAG function to get a value from an earlier row:
WITH     got_prev_field2     AS
     SELECT     field1, field2, field3
     ,     LAG (field2) OVER (ORDER BY field3)     AS prev_field2
     FROM     my_situation
SELECT     field1, field2, field3
FROM     got_prev_field2
WHERE     prev_field2     = 'group2'
;Like all analytic functions, LAG is computed after the WHERE clause is applied. To use the value returned by LAG in a WHERE clause, we have to compute it in a sub-query.
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only), and also post the results you want from that data.

Help with this SQL Query please

How many garments has each dressmaker constructed? You should give the number of garments and the name, house number and post code of each dressmaker.
tables; dressmaker contains D_NO, D_NAME, D_HOUSE_NO, D_POST_CODE
garment contains STYLE_NO, DESCRIPTION, LABOUR_COST, NOTIONS
quantities contains STYLE_Q, SIZE_Q, QUANTITY
The question title is multitableJOINS
I believe i have to use (garment.style_no=quantities.style_q) if it will work, im new to oracle & SQL so all the help i get i am grateful for, thankyou.

Not to be a jerk, but this forum is really not intended for homework. Show a little effort, and try it out. Post some results, and maybe someone will help you out. Getting others to do your homework will not help you when you get out of school.

Hi,
Please always give your database version (select * from v$version), and the error message (if any).
The XML document you're querying defines multiple namespaces.
You have to declare those useful to resolve the XPath expression with the XMLNamespaces clause :
SELECT loc.*
FROM table1 PO,
     XMLTable(
       XMLNamespaces(
         'urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-diffgram-v1' as "diffgr"
       , 'http://secure.rutgers.edu/spacemanagement/' as "ns0"
     , '/ns0:BuildingData_AllResponse/ns0:BuildingData_AllResult/diffgr:diffgram/NewDataSet/Table'
       PASSING PO.ruloc
       COLUMNS
         "BldgNum" CHAR(10) PATH 'BldgNum',
         "Name"    CHAR(150) PATH 'BldgName',
         "Campus" CHAR(50) PATH 'Campus'
     ) AS loc
;

Help with a simple XMLTable query

Newbie Oracle XML developer here and need a little guidance on how to retrieve multiple records in an xmltype table using xmltable.
My document in the xmltype table looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<echoems:ECHOMetrics xmlns:echoems="http://myURL/myFilename.xsd"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://myURL/myFilename.xsd
http://myURL/myFilename.xsd">
<OrderMetrics>
<OrderItemMetric>
<requestor>user1</requestor>
<product>123</product>
</OrderItemMetric>
<OrderItemMetric>
<requestor>0.0.0.0</requestor>
<product>ABC</product>
</OrderItemMetric>
<OrderItemMetric>
<requestor>user3</requestor>
<product>XYZ</product>
</OrderItemMetric>
</OrderMetrics>
</echoems:ECHOMetrics>
I want to get all the products:
Product
123
ABC
XYZ
I know to use XMLTable but am not sure how exactly to write it. If just one record, the following worked fine:
select extractvalue
(object_value,
'echoems:ECHOMetrics/OrderMetrics/OrderItemMetric/product',
'xmlns:echoems="http://myURL/myFilename.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"'
) object_value
from echoXML;
But with multiple records, I'm trying XMLTable but can't get it right. Trying something like this:
select m.product
from echoXML3
xmlTable(
(object_value,'echoems:ECHOMetrics/OrderMetrics/OrderItemMetric/*','xmlns:echoems="http://myURL/myFilename.xsd')
passing object_value
COLUMNS
product varchar2(85) path 'product') m;
Thanks in advance for any help on this.

One more question. Instead of putting the xml doc in the query, how do I reference it from the xmlType table?
You have:
select *
from xmltable
'//OrderMetrics/OrderItemMetric'
passing xmltype(
'<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<echoems:ECHOMetrics xmlns:echoems="http://myURL/myFilename.xsd"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://myURL/myFilename.xsd">
<OrderMetrics>
<OrderItemMetric>
<requestor>user1</requestor>
<product>123</product>
</OrderItemMetric>
<OrderItemMetric>
<requestor>0.0.0.0</requestor>
<product>ABC</product>
</OrderItemMetric>
<OrderItemMetric>
<requestor>user3</requestor>
<product>XYZ</product>
</OrderItemMetric>
</OrderMetrics>
</echoems:ECHOMetrics>')
columns
prod varchar2(20) path 'product',
requestor varchar(50) path 'requestor'
However, the xmlDocument is already in an xmlType table called echoXML3 based on the xsd. I'm just trying to query it to get a relational result set. How, in the query above, do I replace the hardcoded xmlDoc with the xmlDoc located in my xmlType table?
I thought maybe something like this but it's not working:
select *
from xmltable
'//OrderMetrics/OrderItemMetric'
passing xmltype(select value(e)
from echoXML3,
TABLE(xmlsequence(extract(object_value,'echoems:ECHOMetrics/OrderMetrics/OrderItemMetric/*','xmlns:echoems="http://myURL/myFilename.xsd'))) e)
columns
prod varchar2(20) path 'product',
requestor varchar(50) path 'requestor'

Need help in rewriting a sql query

Can any one please tell me if there is any utility that can help me correcting the sql I have I need to tune the query as its taking lot of time. I want to use some tool that will help me re-formating the query.
Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.

If you think that Oracle SQL Tuning Tools like SQL Tuning Advisor and SQL Access Advisor are not helping.
You might look into thrid party tools like Quest- SQL Navigator and TOAD.
But I don't advise this based on the following:
Re: Oracle Third Party Tools and Oracle Database
Oracle have enough tools of its own to satisfy the various needs.

SQL Query Help - Is this possible or impossible????

Hi guys,
I need help with an SQL query that I'm trying to develop. It's very easy to explain but when trying to implement it, I'm struggling to achieve the results that I want.....
For example,
I have 2 tables
The first table is:
1) COMPANY create table company (manufacturer varchar2(25),
                                                      date_established date,
                                                      location varchar2(25) );My sample test date is:
insert into company values ('Ford', 1902, 'USA');
insert into company values ('BMW', 1910, 'Germany');
insert into company values ('Tata', 1922, 'India');The second table is:
2) MODELS create table models (manufacturer varchar(25),
                                             model varchar2(25),
                                             price number(10),
                                             year date,
                                             current_production_status varchar2(1) ) ;My sample test data is:
insert into models values ('Ford', 'Mondeo', 10000, 2010, 0);
insert into models values ('Ford', 'Galaxy', 12000,   2008, 0);
insert into models values ('Ford', 'Escort', 10000, 1992, 1);
insert into models values ('BMW', '318', 17500, 2010, 0);
insert into models values ('BMW', '535d', 32000,   2006, 0);
insert into models values ('BMW', 'Z4', 10000, 1992, 0);
insert into models values ('Tata', 'Safari', 4000, 1999, 0);
insert into models values ('Tata', 'Sumo', 5500,   1996, 1);
insert into models values ('Tata', 'Maruti', 3500, 1998, 0);And this is my query:
SELECT
        com.manufacturer,
        com.date_established,
        com.location,
        DECODE(nvl(mod.current_production_status, '0'), '0', '-', mod.model),
        DECODE(nvl(mod.current_production_status, '0'), '0', '-', mod.price),
        DECODE(nvl(mod.current_production_status, '0'), '0', '-', mod.year),
        mod.current_production_status
FROM
       company com,
       models mod
WHERE
      mod.manufacturer = com.manufacturer
      and com.manufacturer IN ('Ford', 'BMW', 'Tata')
      and mod.current_production_status IN (1,0)
ORDER BY
        mod.current_production_status DESCWhat I want the query to output is this:
com.manufacturer        com.date_established          com.location          mod.model          mod.price             mod.year     mod.current_production_status
Ford               1902                    USA               Escort               10000               1992          1
BMW               1910                    Germany               -               -               -          0
Tata               1922                    India               Sumo               5500               1998          1If current_production_status is 1 it means this particular model has been discontinued
If current_production_status is 0 it means the manufacturer does not have any discontinued models and all are in procuction.
The rule is only one record per manufacturer is allowed to have a current_production_status of 1 (so only one model from the selection the manufactuer offers is allowed to be discontinued).
So the query should output the one row where current_production_status is 1 for each manufacturer.
If for a given manufacturer there are no discontinued models and all have a current_production_status of 0 then ouput a SINGLE row that only includes the data from the COMPANY table (as above). The rest of the columns from the MODELS table should be populated with a '-' (hyphen).
My query as it is above will output all the records where current status is 1 or 0 like this
com.manufacturer        com.date_established          com.location          mod.model          mod.price          mod.year     mod.current_production_status

Any ideas how I can achieve the result I need?
Thanks!
P.S. Database version is '10.2.0.1.0'

Hi Vishnu,
Karthiks query helped...
But this is the problem I am facing...
SELECT
        com.manufacturer,
        com.date_established,
        com.location,
        DECODE(nvl(mod.current_production_status, '0'), '0', '-', mod.model),
        DECODE(nvl(mod.current_production_status, '0'), '0', '-', mod.price),
        DECODE(nvl(mod.current_production_status, '0'), '0', '-', mod.year),
        mod.current_production_status
FROM
       company com,
       models mod
WHERE
      mod.manufacturer = com.manufacturer
      and com.manufacturer = 'Ford'
      and mod.current_production_status IN (1,0)
ORDER BY
        mod.current_production_status DESCThe value of:
and com.manufacturer = 'Ford'will be dependent on front end user input....
When I run the query above I get all the rows where current_production_status is either 1 or 0.
I only require the rows where current_production_status is 1.
So if I amend it to look like this:
     and mod.current_production_status = 1This works....
BUT if a user now passes in more than one manufacturer EG:
and com.manufacturer IN ('Ford', 'BMW')The query will only return the one row for Ford where current_production_status is 1. However because BMW has no models where current_production_status is 1 (all 3 are 0), I still want this to be output - as one row....
So like this:
com.manufacturer        com.date_established          com.location          mod.model          mod.price             mod.year     mod.current_production_status
Ford               1902                    USA               Escort               10000               1992          1
BMW               1910                    Germany               -               -               -          0So (hopefully you understand), I want both cases to be catered for.....whether a user enters one manufacturer or more than one...
Thanks you so much!
This is really driving me insane :-(

How to rewrite this query

How can i rewrite this query so it uses less inner joins (it causes my temp space to explode :) )
( SELECT Waardes.*, Tellers.Nr_Dataitems, Tellers.Nr_Details FROM
( SELECT extractvalue(Value(el_node), 'Node/Id') node,
extractvalue(Value(el_dataitem), 'Detail/Title') Node_Title,
extractvalue(Value(el_dataitem), 'Detail/Value') Node_Value
FROM PHILIPS_XML x,
TABLE (xmlsequence (extract (value(x), '/Tree/Node'))) el_node,
TABLE (xmlsequence (extract (value(el_node),
'Node/DataItems/DataItem/DetailSet/Detail'))) el_dataitem
) Waardes
INNER JOIN
SELECT A.Node, A.Nr_Dataitems, B.Nr_details FROM
SELECT extractvalue(Value(el_node), 'Node/Id') node,
count(extract(Value(aaa), 'DataItem')) Nr_Dataitems
FROM PHILIPS_XML x,
TABLE (xmlsequence (extract (value(x), '/Tree/Node'))) el_node,
TABLE (xmlsequence (extract (value(el_node),
'Node/DataItems/DataItem'))) aaa
GROUP BY extractvalue(Value(el_node), 'Node/Id')
) A
INNER JOIN
SELECT extractvalue(Value(el_node), 'Node/Id') node,
count(extract(Value(bbb), 'Detail')) Nr_details
FROM PHILIPS_XML x,
TABLE (xmlsequence (extract (value(x), '/Tree/Node'))) el_node,
TABLE (xmlsequence (extract (value(el_node),
'Node/DataItems/DataItem'))) aaa,
TABLE (xmlsequence (extract (value(aaa),
'DataItem/DetailSet/Detail' ))) bbb
GROUP BY extractvalue(Value(el_node), 'Node/Id')
) B
on A.node = B.NODE
) Tellers
ON Waardes.NODE = Tellers.NODE )

1st Make sure all paths are absolute (start with '/', not just the node name).
Which release are you using.. Is the document based on an XMLSchema, if so, what annotations were used when registered the XML Schema ?. What does the explain plan look like...
