Help to write the query

Hello
I have created 2 user defined fields
Field 1 must be changed by the user before they save the sales order, it's a numeric field, value is 0 or 1. Field is called 'SPRECPTE'
The second field is a field to block the user as long as the above field is not changed. This field is alphanumeric and mandatory but the problem is when you create the UDF you must define a default value.
Here comes the query to remove the default value and make the control possible when you select the cardcode from OCRD.
Then the field 2 is blank and it must be field up to allow booking when you change UDF1 from 0 to 1. But the query work to empty the field 2 but it does not when SPRECPTE is equal to 1
Declare @U_SPRECPTE as numeric (1,0)
Set @U_SPRECPTE = $[$U_SPRECPTE.1.0]
IF U_SPRECPTE=0
Select '' ELSE 'A'

During order entry, the system checks freight cost based on formated search to add sales tax on freight fields.It was calculated for every line.
Now we are in live condition the formated search slows down order entry as every time an item is keyed in it recalculates every item again....
Then I decide to stop the fms based on item feild is modified and to valide the calculation before saving the order
To secure a sales order is saved without calculating the whole order I created 2 UDF to block users....
So one UDF must be mandatory and without default value, the first field launch the calculation through FMS of the whole order
I hope I am clear I am not familair with SBO store procedure but if you think it may help please explain
B Regards

SELECT coupon          -- or whatever columns you want
FROM    table_x
WHERE   expirationdate NOT BETWEEN SYSDATE - 30
                            AND      SYSDATE + 30

Hi,
next time please post sample data as CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements or with clause like this:
with mychildren as
   select 1 id, 'chld1' chld, null    prnt, null is_sub_parent, 'Y' is_parent from dual union all
   select 2 id, 'chld2' chld, 'chld1' prnt, 'Y' is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual union all
   select 3 id, 'chld3' chld, 'chld1' prnt, 'Y' is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual union all
   select 4 id, 'chld4' chld, 'chld1' prnt, null is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual union all
   select 5 id, 'chld5' chld, 'chld2' prnt,'Y'   is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual union all
   select 6 id, 'chld6' chld, 'chld2' prnt, null is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual union all
   select 7 id, 'chld7' chld, 'chld5' prnt, null is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual union all
   select 8 id, 'chld8' chld, null    prnt, null is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual
Here a couple of test with chld7 and chld1
with mychildren as
   select 1 id, 'chld1' chld, null    prnt, null is_sub_parent, 'Y' is_parent from dual union all
   select 2 id, 'chld2' chld, 'chld1' prnt, 'Y' is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual union all
   select 3 id, 'chld3' chld, 'chld1' prnt, 'Y' is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual union all
   select 4 id, 'chld4' chld, 'chld1' prnt, null is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual union all
   select 5 id, 'chld5' chld, 'chld2' prnt,'Y'   is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual union all
   select 6 id, 'chld6' chld, 'chld2' prnt, null is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual union all
   select 7 id, 'chld7' chld, 'chld5' prnt, null is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual union all
   select 8 id, 'chld8' chld, null    prnt, null is_sub_parent, null is_parent from dual
, find_root as
    select chld
      from mychildren
     where prnt is null
     start with chld='chld1' --- this is your input
   connect by prior prnt=chld
select id, chld, prnt
   from mychildren
start with chld=(select chld from find_root)
connect by prior chld=prnt
        ID CHLD PRNT
         1 chld1
         2 chld2 chld1
         5 chld5 chld2
         7 chld7 chld5
         6 chld6 chld2
         3 chld3 chld1
         4 chld4 chld1
Changing it to chld7 does not change the output.
Output is now sorted according hierarchical query. If you need a different sort order you can specify what you want.
Regards.

Need help in refining the query

Hello Experts,
Need your help in refining the query further more.

2   salutation [20141127-99991231]Mrs
2   salutation [20151127-99991231]Mr
My requirement is to find the list of overlapping records based on the dates
user details may be varying from time to time as new data would be pushed through HR systems to identity store via an interface.
The job is getting failed whenever there is any overlapping with dates. So we proactively decided to schedule a job in this regards which runs weekly and would let us know for which and all the users there is overlapping dates are there, so that we can send the list to HR team for pushing new data.
Overlapping Issue Example:
The users employee id for an year it is 1234 and later he moved to another department and his employee id got changed and it became 2345 remaining all details are same. So the HR systems send the data for this user as empno - [20141127-20151128]1234 and empno - [20151201-99991231]232544
it means from 20141127 to 20151128 his employee no is 1234 and from 20151201 to 99991231 his employee would be 2345.
This is a correct case and the tool would accept this data.
the below cases are invald
Case 1: 1 salutation [20141127-99991231]Mrs 1 salutation [20151127-99991231]Mr
Case 2: 2 salutation [20141127-99991231]Mrs 2 salutation [20141127-99991231]Mr
So we wanted to find these overlapping records from tables.
My Query:
I am able to successfully write query for the case 2 type but unable to write for case1.
select id,colA
count(left(ColB,CHARINDEX(']',ColB))) as 'Count'
from tblA with (nolock)
where id in (Select distinct id from tblb with (nolock))
group by id, cola,left(ColB,CHARINDEX(']',ColB))
having count(left(ColB,CHARINDEX(']',ColB)))>1

Finally got the required answer with the below query
WITH Cte AS
SELECT ID,ColA,ColB,ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY (SELECT 1)) AS RN,
CAST(SUBSTRING(ColB,2,CHARINDEX('-',ColB)-2) AS DATE) AS StartDT,
CAST(SUBSTRING(ColB,CHARINDEX('-',ColB)+1,8) AS DATE) AS EndDT FROM TblA
SELECT c1.ID, c1.ColA,c1.ColB
FROM Cte c1 JOIN Cte c2
ON c1.RN != c2.RN
AND c1.ID=c2.ID
AND c1.ColA=c2.ColA
AND (c1.StartDT BETWEEN c2.StartDT AND c2.EndDT OR c2.StartDT BETWEEN c1.StartDT AND c1.EndDT )

I doubt that this query can be tuned without using indexes. There is a lot of unnecessary work specified in your query, like unnecessary intermediate sorting and selecting unused columns. The cost based optimizer recognized it and skips some of that unnecessary work, it seems. For clarity's sake, I would rewrite your query like below. Note that the query is untested:
select consumer_key
     , max(product_key) keep (dense_rank last order by days_in_product) product_key
     , max(days_in_product) days_in_product
     , 20100201 period_key
from ( select pcv.consumer_key
              , pcv.product_key
              , sum
                ( case
                  when to_number(to_char(cd.activation_date,'yyyymmddhh24miss')) between 20100201000000 and 20100228235959
                  then
                    case
                    when cd.activation_date > to_date(pcv.product_consumer_valid_to,'yyyymmddhh24miss')
                    then
                      0
                    when cd.activation_date between to_date(pcv.product_consumer_valid_from,'yyyymmddhh24miss') and to_date(product_consumer_valid_to,'yyyymmddhh24miss')
                    then

Help in generating the query

Hi All,
I have the below requirement.
Master table:

2               Cellphone
3               Laptop
4               DVD Player
Details table:

4               Weight          20
4               Height          10Im looking for a way to identify the products that has exact same specifications.
ie., in the above example TV and Cellphone has the exact specifications.
So the output of the query should be TV and Cellphone here.
Is it possible to do in a query or we need to have some sql block to perform this action.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Agathya

Hi agathya,
We don't know how you would like to handle the situation where more than two products have the same specifications, so I extended your sample data a bit to reflect that situation as well:

4 rijen zijn geselecteerd.But why on earth did you or your predecessor model product specifications like this? You are making it far more complicated than it needs to be. And the datatype of height and weight should not be the same as for color. But now they are. And how do you restrict the allowable values for colors? Color, weight and height are attributes of your products so they should have been modeled like that.
See how easy your questions becomes after remodeling it:

Help in correcting the query

Hi,
I have below query:
select u.v_um_code,v_um_name,count(f.v_fc_code), count(s.n_sl_no), count(distinct s.n_agent_no)
from subm_buss_um_master u,subm_buss_fc_master f,submitted_business_raw s
where u.v_um_code=f.v_um_code and f.v_fc_code=s.n_agent_no
and f.v_status='A' and u.v_status='A'
and trunc(d_submitted) between '01-JUL-2004' AND '31-JUL-2004'
group by u.v_um_code,v_um_name;
the output should be such that first all the records should be fetched from subm_buss_um_master table (where u.v_status='A')--> then count(f.v_fc_code) then -->count(s.n_sl_no), count(distinct s.n_agent_no)
the data/columns in these tables is large, I cannot paste here.
Thanks in advance
Tariq.

Hi,
If SET operator UNION helps then great!!!
For example: As per my requirement, first all employees and sum of salary.....is the query.
SELECT ename, sal FROM emp
UNION
SELECT 'Grand Total ', SUM(sal) FROM emp
ORDER BY sal;

Ok, so I am going to be a little bit kinder then your first reply, but not much.
From what can tell you are doing medical management and are trying to select by AGE/GENDER CELLS and this is common when trying to deal with RBRVS.
This is by far some of the worst sql I have ever seen, sorry but it just is.
So please report this either as a new post or as a reply and:
1. At least post the table definitions and if you can some sample data.
2. Get rid of almost all the case selectors.
3. Describe the output you need.
As it is this is unreadable.
After that we can talk more.
