Help with Distinct or Grouping to get rid of duplicates

So Im stumped at the approach I need to take. have a query here:
select type_type,
RCD_REASON,
rc.description,
MATERIAL_ID,
USERID,
DATETIME_SCRAPPED,
ORDER_NUMBER,
TRIMDATE,
SUBSTR(SALES_ORDER,3,8) || '-' || SUBSTR(SOL_LINE_NUMBER,3,4) AS SalesOrder,
QTY,
COMPONENT_MATERIAL_ID
from WORKCELL.history hh
inner join WORKCELL.reason_codes rc
on hh.rcd_reason = rc.reason
where rc.type_type in ('FAB','TRM') AND TO_CHAR(DATETIME_SCRAPPED,'YYYYMMDD') between to_char(:FromDate,'YYYYMMDD') AND to_char(:ToDate,'YYYYMMDD')
order by 1,2,9
Thats pulling records based off two date parameters in SSRS. However, the problem is that I do not want duplicate records for MATERIAL_ID or ORDER_NUMBER. I realize I can't use Select Distinct for my current query because technically they are all distinct based
off the DATETIME_SCRAPPED because it also includes the time. What would be the best way to organize this query to get all the rows I specified, and no duplicates based off the two columns?
Here is how I want the Data to look:
QTY Fabric/Pc Cut For When Prd Ord Sched Sales Ord Name
> 1 906700021-5F72 T500173 09/30/2014 07:36:37 001038881084 20140929 05594568-4170 rg

I would like it to only return this:
QTY Fabric/Pc Cut For When Prd Ord Sched Sales Ord Name
> 1 906700021-5F72 T500173 09/30/2014 07:36:37 001038881084 20140929 05594568-4170 rg
> 2 906700021-5F72 T500175 09/30/2014 02:04:07 001038881052 20140929 05594568-4210 rg

In the second data set, rows that have the same Prd Ord and Sales Ord, have been removed and the most recent time is used for the duplicate row.

When I type in:
AND TO_CHAR(DATETIME_SCRAPPED,'YYYYMMDD') between to_char(:FromDate,'YYYYMMDD') AND to_char(:ToDate,'YYYYMMDD'
I am pulling a ORA - 01722 Error. An error I wasn't getting prior to writing those new lines that you suggested. When I hard code the dates in, it works perfect! But I need the parameters in the report. Any suggestions on why it would do that after the new
changes you suggested?

  • Need help with volume I can't get rid of and terminal

    I own a external HD named "elements". One day a second volume appeared named "elements". Every time I tried to save files to my external HD they were written on this mysterious volume. The volume isn't showed on my desktop - only when I try to save something with Opera (browser) or in the terminal I can see it.
    I renamed my external HD so I can write files to it. So far so good.
    But how can I get rid of this volume? The finder does not show it. Spotlight does noch find it. Only in the terminal I can see this volume and I can see the files in it.
    the terminal command "diskutil eject /volumes/elements" or "diskutil unmount force /volumes/elements" did not help.
    what can I do?

    It sounds like a "false clone" was created on your internal HD, which can happen if the target volume of a backup program becomes unavailable during the copy process.
    Try this:
    First eject and disconnect all external drives, then:
    Finder>Go menu> Go to Folder
    enter /Volumes and click Go
    Don't touch the alias to your internal HD volume, or any other alias.
    If you see "elements," and it is NOT an alias, trash it and empty the trash.

  • Help...I can't get rid of duplicate playlists on my ipod..

    Just got a new computer, and copied itunes library from my old computer successfully. However, when I synched my ipod to the computer, I now have duplicate playlists...just the "apple" ones (Recently Added, Recently played, etc.) ones I have named myself are fine. I tried to restore and re-synch, and same problem...it's not life-threatening, but very annoying!! Thanks

    Do these playlists appear multiple times in iTunes? If so, delete them from iTunes and then re-sync the iPod.

  • Getting Rid Of Duplicate Pics on iMac synced with iPhone 3GS. HOW?!

    Ok heres the thing. And I searched the forums before coming here to ask for help. I have a white iPhone 3GS 16gb and every time I sync my iPhone with iPhoto it just keeps duplicates. I literally have 1400 pictures and maybe 300 are original, the rest, copies, copies, and more copies.
    PLEASE help me figure out how to delete duplicate pictures in iPhoto 09'. I am currently using the base model 3.06 ghz, 21.5 inch screen version Apple iMac, running "Snow Leopard", 10.6.4 if that helps. I just want to get rid of of all these duplicates without having to go through the whole thing one by one! There has to be away to, like in iTunes, you can hit the "Duplicates" button and it brings them up and you can erase them one time not do it for each one!!
    Anyone know or understand what I am trying to do?
    Thank you in advance for sharing your experiences.

    Something is not working correctly - if you have checked ignore duplicated you should not be importing them
    Duplicate Annihilator is a good solution for taking care of Duplicates within iPhoto - http://www.brattoo.com/propaganda/
    Maybe renewing your iPhoto preference file would help for the future - A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
    This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.

    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    Hey damien555,
    Thanks for the question, I understand how frustrating this may be. It sounds like the update process may have been interrupted, and to resolve the issue, we’ll need to restore your device in recovery mode with iTunes:

  • I can't get rid of duplicate songs on my iphone or in the itunes.Help

    I cannot get rid of duplicate songs on my iphone or on the itunes player on my computer. I also cannot get my songs to play on my iphone in shuffle mode. It just plays the same song over and over again. Any lovely geeks out there?

    Welcome to the forums.
    If you have duplicate songs in iTunes you ought to be able to find them by using the "Find Duplicates" function and erase them by highlighting them all and pressing delete. Remember, though, that songs are not necessarily recognized as duplicates if they don't have the same tags (that is, a song can be duplicated but with a slightly different song title and iTunes cannot recognize it as a duplicate and it would be up to you to delete it manually).
    Once you've cleaned up iTunes it will automagically clean up your iPhone when you sync it. So work on getting iTunes in order first.
    People have complained about shuffle mode on the iPhone. One thing you can do is to create a smart playlist that selects the songs you want and does it randomly. You may have to create one or more of these depending on how you listen to music, but they will indeed give you "shuffled" songs.

  • HT4007 How can I get rid of duplicates in a project with out deleting them one by one?

    How can I get rid of duplicates in a project without deleting them one by one?

    What kind of duplicates? Did you import the same image file several times? Aperture does not have any built-in tools to detect duplicates. You will have to do delete the one by one. You could arrange the images by date, so that duplicates are shown side by side in the Browser. Or use a tool like Duplicate Annihilator (the program is not free). I have never tested it but some do recommend it.

  • How to get rid of duplicate files in Windows Media Player 11, I am seeking an answer if at all possible.

    I don't know if this is the appropriate forum to ask this question....if it is not please guide me to the correct support forum. I am just trying to find out if there is an easier way of getting rid of duplicate files in my Windows Media Player 11.
    Also how do I prevent my Media player from obtaining all these duplicate files from other libraries.  I have iTunes installed and my home network has four other computers belonging in the home group that have all their own respective music libraries. 
    I guess I was naïve but I thought that when Windows Media Player is out searching other libraries it would know not to take duplicates of songs that it has already.  Enough said .....if anyone out there can help me that would be great.  I have in
    the past spent many hours manually deleting songs from my music files and it really got old.

  • I just got an iPad 2 and have not yet synced to my computer. I don't want to have all the duplicate songs in my iTunes. How do I get rid of duplicates?

    I just got an iPad 2 and have not yet synced to my computer. I don't want to have all the duplicate songs in my iTunes. How do I get rid of duplicates?

    You don't say whether you are on PC or Mac. For Mac there are these two programs which might help (I havn't tried either) :
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/ipod_itunes/songsergeant.html
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/ipod_itunes/idupe.html
    There are probably similar programs for PCs, but I don't know what they are. On a PC you can hold the shift key and do File > Display Exact Duplicates (without the shift they may not be exact matches) - if one of each duplicate pair has the same date added then you can sort by that and then delete those with (or without) that date.

  • What is the best way to get rid of duplicates in the XML data?

    Hi all,
    Please help me with the best way to get rid of the duplicates in the XML data. Will a transform with some stylesheet do the trick? I need to read on the stylesheet first, but please tell me if that is possible. I have to deal with XML data that has tons of duplicate data. Please see one section of an XML file. You can see that for each charge, the same defendant information (address, ID numbers, etc) is included. Having 10 charges is not uncommon, so I would have the same data repeated 10 times. I first thought that I would use some temp tables to do that, but I wonder if there were a better way. Thanks a lot. Please see the data below.

    Yes, it can. ClamXav scans and quarantines it. It was updated.

  • HT1660 i have two independent itunes libraries on my computer right now. how do i consolidate them into one library? how do i get rid of duplicate files?

    i have two independent itunes libraries on my computer right now. how do i consolidate them into one library? how do i get rid of duplicate files?

    Hello rmunsey,
    Thank you for the question.  It sounds like you have two separate iTunes Libraries but would like to add the music from one to the other to have one consolidated library.
    If you know where the files are for each library, I recommend opening one iTunes Library in iTunes and importing the files from the other library using the following steps:
    Open iTunes
    From the File menu, choose one of the following choices:
    MacAdd to Library
    Windows
    Add File to Library
    Add Folder to Library
    Navigate to and select the file or folder that you want to add

    Next, you can search for duplicates:
    Choose View > Show Duplicate Items to show duplicate items (matches are based on the song name and artist). If you have multiple versions of the same song (for example, live and studio versions, or versions from different albums) you can hold the Alt or Option key (for Mac OS X) or the Shift key (for Windows) and choose View > Show Exact Duplicate Items. This will show only duplicate songs having the same name, artist, and album.

    This should help you identify the duplicates all at one time so that you can delete the extra versions of songs.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
    Sheila M.

  • How to find/get rid of duplicates in iTunes 11?

    I have to many duplicates on iTunes, and i know there was an option before to find and get rid of duplicates on the old version of itunes. is there a way to do it on the new iTunes 11?

    Apple has removed that feature along with several others, but
    (5/12/2012) Missing 'Find Duplicates' feature in iTunes 11 to be restored - http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57557280-263/missing-find-duplicates-featur e-in-itunes-11-to-be-restored/    "Some of the features Apple has removed from iTunes will see a return, but others may indicate changes to come elsewhere in Apple's product lines."
    Until then you will have to resort to sorting by a particular label such as artist and manually scanning, third party utilities such as Dougscripts Dupin to deal with duplicates, or revert back to iTunes 10.7.
