Help with inline view query

Hi
I have written a query that is supposed to return the following result.
LOCATION                  YOUNGEST                    ELDEST
york                       Name                        Name
Luton                      Name                        NameI am having trouble with the INNER JOIN of the outer query. I cannot seem to match up both the YOUNGEST and ELDEST COLUMNS, only one of them. Does anyone know how I match it up to produce the appropriate result
SELECT
     res.ldes,
     a.first_name||' '||a.last_name YOUNGEST,
     a.first_name||' '||a.last_name ELDEST
FROM
  SELECT
        l.description ldes,
        MAX(a.birth_date) maxbd,
        MIN(a.birth_date) minbd
  FROM
        locations l
  INNER JOIN
        agents a
  ON
        l.location_id=a.location_id
  GROUP BY
        l.description
) res
INNER JOIN
        agents a
ON
        a.birth_date = res.maxbd  --PROBLEM IS HERE need to match up a.birth_date with res.minbd also but cannot get it
ORDER BY
        res.ldesThanks for any response

    Hello Gurus,
    I would really appreciate your time and effort regarding this query. I have the following data set.
    Reference_No---Check_Number---Check_Date--------Description-------------------------------Invoice_Number----------Invoice_Type---Paid_Amount-----Vendor_Number

    Please Ignore '----', added it for clarity
    I am trying to write a query to aggregate paid_amount based on Reference_No, Check_Number, Payment_Date, Invoice_Number, Invoice_Type, Vendor_Number and display description with Invoice_type 'I' when there are multiple records with the same Reference_No, Check_Number, Payment_Date, Invoice_Number, Invoice_Type, Vendor_Number. When there are no multiple records I want to display the respective Description.
    The query should return the following data set
    Reference_No---Check_Number---Check_Date--------Description-------------------------------Invoice_Number----------Invoice_Type---Paid_Amount-----Vendor_Number
    1234567----------11223-------------- 7/5/2008----------paid for cleaning----------------------44345563------------------I-----------------*10.00*------------19
    7654321----------11223--------------7/5/2008-----------Adjustment from last billing cycle-----23543556-------------------A--------------------50.00--------------19

    The following is my query. I am kind of lost.
    select B.Description, A.sequence_id,A.check_date, A.check_number, A.invoice_number, A.amount, A.vendor_number
    from (
    select sequence_id,check_date, check_number, invoice_number, sum(paid_amount) amount, vendor_number
    from INVOICE
    group by sequence_id,check_date, check_number, invoice_number, vendor_number
    ) A, INVOICE B
    where A.sequence_id = B.sequence_id

  • Need some help with the Select query.

    Need some help with the Select query.
    I had created a Z table with the following fields :
    ZADS :
    MANDT
    VKORG
    ABGRU.
    I had written a select query as below :
    select single vkorg abgru from ZADS into it_rej.
    IT_REJ is a Work area:
    DATA : BEGIN OF IT_REJ,
            VKORG TYPE VBAK-VKORG,
            ABGRU TYPE VBAP-ABGRU,
           END OF IT_REJ.
    This is causing performance issue. They are asking me to include the where condition for this select query.
    What should be my select query here?
    Please suggest....
    Any suggestion will be apprecaiated!

    Hello Everybody!
    Thank you for all your response!
    I had changes this work area into Internal table and changed the select query. PLease let me know if this causes any performance issues?
    I had created a Z table with the following fields :
    ZADS :
    MANDT
    VKORG
    ABGRU.
    I had written a select query as below :
    I had removed the select single and insted of using the Structure it_rej, I had changed it into Internal table 
    select vkorg abgru from ZADS into it_rej.
    Earlier :
    IT_REJ is a Work area:
    DATA : BEGIN OF IT_REJ,
    VKORG TYPE VBAK-VKORG,
    ABGRU TYPE VBAP-ABGRU,
    END OF IT_REJ.
    Now :
    DATA : BEGIN OF IT_REJ occurs 0,
    VKORG TYPE VBAK-VKORG,
    ABGRU TYPE VBAP-ABGRU,
    END OF IT_REJ.
    I guess this will fix the issue correct?
    PLease suggest!

  • Issue with Inline View Criteria

    Hi,
    I have a VO created on two tables that are joined by a 1:1 association(say Opportunity and Revenue). The query is specified in Expert mode because I need some aggregations performed using analytic functions. Data security predicates are applied on top of this query using a dummy View Criteria. My requirement now is that I need to filter these results using another VC. The issue is that both the tables have attributes with the same name(say Cust ID) and I need to filter based on this using an inline View Criteria. I have done the same declaratively. However, I get an error on hitting the page saying the columns have been ambiguously defined.
    On digging through the log, I discovered the test Query fails to prefix the alias before the attribute. So what I get is something similar to this
    select (o.id, r.amt, sum(), count(), avg(), o.custId) from opty o, revn r where (o.id in DATA SECURITY PREDICATE) and (custId = :bindCustId)
    Is there a way to ensure that the custId can be changed to o.custId???
    Note - The View Criteria was created on an attribute from opty table that was exposed i.e in this case, o.custId. Although the query builder shows it correctly while creating the VC declaratively, the issue persists as seen from the logs.
    Thanks,
    Manoj

    Hi experts...
    Any pointers to this issue???
    Please help!

  • Improve performance of  an inline view query

    All,
    I have a unique situation where I have to limit the number of rows based on group. so I created an Inline view and applied a limit on it.
    ex:
    SELECT col_A, col_B FROM ( SELECT col_a, count(*) FROM tab_a WHERE col_a = 'XXX' GROUP BY col_a) ROWNUM <-10.
    but this design was rejected, because it seems to have a great impact on performance due to inline view.
    Also I cant set a rowlimit directly on the query because GROUP BY clause is used in the select.
    When the rownum is directly applied in the WHERE, first it limits the rows and then it makes a GROUP, so when user asks to retrieve 10 records, it may show less than 10 rows because of the grouping.
    please help to find a alternative solution which helps to get the expected result set and same time without loosing performance.

    Hi,
    The sql you gave us is not valid. There is no "col_b" in your inline view, there is no "where" before "rownum<10", and the inline view returns only one row.
    Try to produce a reproducible scenario with scott.emp and scott.dept generated by $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlsampl.sql

  • Help with ordering a query

    Hi,

    Do i need to assign it to another var before i use it in an order clause?

    I wrote about [url http://forums.oracle.com/forums/click.jspa?searchID=5648765&messageID=1739843]the order of evaluating on select statement recently.

    The table alias and/or the column alias on &#91;1-1] 'from' can be referred all level excluding &#91;1-1], but cannot be referred in inline view (subquery) on &#91;1-1] 'from'.
    select xxx from tab1 a1,(select xxx2 from tab2 a2 where a2.xxx=a1.xxx) -- No Good (This is same level)

    select xxx a1, xxx2 a2,count(*) from tab1 group by a2 -- No Good (post defined)
    select xxx a1, xxx2 a2,count(*) from tab1 order by a2 -- Good
    The naming rule of alias must accord with [url http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/sql_elements008.htm#i27561]Schema Object Names and Qualifiers.
    So, the alias enclosed by double quotation mark becomes case sensitive.
    In additional, in order-by-clause, we can specified column number on select-clause.

    OK: the third parameter of the SUBSTR function indicates the (maximum) length of the returnd string.
    Therefore SUBSTR("EES_ENERGY_MASTER"."ICD_CODE",1,2) could possibly be '68' , but never '68-gyn'.
    '68-gyn' is just 4 characters too long.

  • Improve Performance on Inline view Query

    All,
    I have a unique situation where I have to limit the number of rows based on group. so I created an Inline view and applied a limit on it.
    ex:
    SELECT col_A, col_B FROM ( SELECT col_a, count(*) FROM tab_a WHERE col_a = 'XXX' GROUP BY col_a) ROWNUM <-10.
    but this design was rejected, because it seems to have a great impact on performance due to inline view.
    Also I cant set a rowlimit directly on the query because GROUP BY clause is used in the select.
    When the rownum is directly applied in the WHERE, first it limits the rows and then it makes a GROUP, so when user asks to retrieve 10 records, it may show less than 10 rows because of the grouping.
    please help to find a alternative solution which helps to get the expected result set and same time without loosing performance

    but this design was rejected, because it seems to have a great impact on performance due to inline view.What proof was offered that this query performed badly. There is nothing inherently non-performant about in-line views. I would demand to see some evidence that this query uses an unreasonable amount of system resource.
    However, you could try this:
    SELECT t.col1, avg(t.col2)
    FROM   t1 t
    WHERE  t.col1 IN ( SELECT DISTINCT x.col1
                       FROM   t1 x
                       WHERE  col3 = 'XXX'
                       AND    rownum <=10 )
    GROUP  BY t.col1
    /I assume your example is not derived from your real code (otherwise the WHERE clause would restrict the inline query to one returned row - problem solved!)
    Cheers, APC

  • Help with Inner Join query in SQL

    Hope someone can help with this, as this is quite an involved project for me, and I'm just about there with it.
    My table structure is :
    table_packages
    packageID
    package
    packageDetails
    etc
    table_destinations
    destinationID
    destination
    destinationDetails
    etc
    table_packagedestinations
    packageID
    destinationID
    ..so nothing that complicated.
    So the idea is that I can have a package details page which shows the details of the package, along any destinations linked to that package via the packagedestinations table.
    So this is the last part really - to get the page to display the destinations, but I'm missing something along the way....
    This is the PHP from the header, including my INNER JOIN query....
    PHP Code:
    <?php
    $ParampackageID_WADApackages = "-1";
    if (isset($_GET['packageID'])) {
      $ParampackageID_WADApackages = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_GET['packageID'] : addslashes($_GET['packageID']);
    $ParamSessionpackageID_WADApackages = "-1";
    if (isset($_SESSION['WADA_Insert_packages'])) {
      $ParamSessionpackageID_WADApackages = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_SESSION['WADA_Insert_packages'] : addslashes($_SESSION['WADA_Insert_packages']);
    $ParampackageID2_WADApackages = "-1";
    if (isset($_GET['packageID'])) {
      $ParampackageID2_WADApackages = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_GET['packageID'] : addslashes($_GET['packageID']);
    mysql_select_db($database_connPackages, $connPackages);
    $query_WADApackages = sprintf("SELECT packageID, package, costperpax, duration, baselocation, category, dateadded, agerange, hotel, educational_tours, field_trips, corporate_outings, plant_visits, budget_package, rollingtours, teambuilding, description, offer FROM packages WHERE packageID = %s OR ( -1= %s AND packageID= %s)", GetSQLValueString($ParampackageID_WADApackages, "int"),GetSQLValueString($ParampackageID2_WADApackages, "int"),GetSQLValueString($ParamSessionpackageID_WADApackages, "int"));
    $WADApackages = mysql_query($query_WADApackages, $connPackages) or die(mysql_error());
    $row_WADApackages = mysql_fetch_assoc($WADApackages);
    $totalRows_WADApackages = mysql_num_rows($WADApackages);
    $colname_educationalDestinations = "1";
    if (isset($_GET['PackageID'])) {
      $colname_educationalDestinations = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? packageID : addslashes(packageID);
    mysql_select_db($database_connPackages, $connPackages);
    $query_educationalDestinations = sprintf("SELECT * FROM destinations INNER JOIN (packages INNER JOIN packagedestinations ON packages.packageID = packagedestinations.packageID) ON destinations.destinationID = packagedestinations.destinationID WHERE packages.packageID = %s ORDER BY destination ASC", GetSQLValueString($colname_educationalDestinations, "int"));
    $educationalDestinations = mysql_query($query_educationalDestinations, $connPackages) or die(mysql_error());
    $row_educationalDestinations = mysql_fetch_assoc($educationalDestinations);
    $totalRows_educationalDestinations = mysql_num_rows($educationalDestinations);
    ?>
    And where I'm trying to display the destinations themselves, I have : 
    <table>
            <tr>
                     <td>Destinations :</td>
                </tr>
               <?php do { ?>
            <tr>
                 <td><?php echo $row_educationalDestinations['destination']; ?></td>
            </tr>
            <?php } while ($row_educationalDestinations = mysql_fetch_assoc($educationalDestinations)); ?>
    </table>
    If anyone could have a quick look and help me out that would be much appreciated - not sure if its my SQL at the top, or the PHP in the page, but either way it would be good to get it working. 
    Thanks.

    First off, you need to get the database tables so that there is a relationship between them.
    In fact, if there is a one to one relationship, then it may be better to store all of your information in one table such as
    table_packages
    packageID
    package
    packageDetails
    destination
    destinationDetails
    etc
    If there is a one to many relationship, then the following would be true
    packages
    packageID
    package
    packageDetails
    etc
    destinations
    destinationID
    packageID
    destination
    destinationDetails
    etc
    The above assumes that there are many destinations to one package with the relationship coloured orange.
    Once you have the above correct you can apply your query as follows
    SELECT *
    FROM packages
    INNER JOIN destinations
    ON packages.packageID = destinations.packageID
    WHERE packages.packageID = %s
    ORDER BY destination ASC
    The above query will show all packages with relevant destinations

  • Need help with LikeFilter for querying the keyset instead of value

    Hi,
    I'm looking for help with the LikeFilter.
    I need to query the cache to get all entries with key starting with a particular string.
    I could see samples using LikeFilter for querying the values in the cache but not the keyset.
    Can someone help?
    E.g:
    Cache Entries:
    abc123 - value1
    abc234 - value2
    bcd123 - value3
    I want to get all entries with key starting with 'abc'.
    thanks,
    rama.

    NJ, thanks for the quick reply.
    I tried something similar (as below) but this code gives me 'java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/tangosol/util/ValueExtractor'.
    KeyExtractor extractor = new KeyExtractor("getKey");
    Filter filter = new LikeFilter(extractor, id+":%",'-',false);

  • Need Help with Crystal viewer and ActiveX

    Hi !!
    I have a problem that i cant seem to be able to solve. I had alot of help from the forum but i think i got everything mixtup now...
    From my addon i can print with CrystalReport Viewer or i cant print a Crystal report directly to my default printer, so thats good and working well. The problem is with Crystal Viewer that drags on the SBO screen and stays on the task bar.
    It is strongly recommended to use an Activex to display my Crystal Viewer report. I tried so many differrent ways allways ending up with class id errors, or private class errors.
    My report is called c:\report.rpt
    My Working CrystalViewer form is called 'frmCRV'
    Can some one help me thru this last step...  I tried with the Activex sample in SDK but i think i dont have to use the Tree function ??? am i right ??
    I'm running on SBO 2005 SP1 PL3
    Crystal Report .net V10 and .net for code.
    Thanks you all for your patience.

    Hi Again !
    I can now open a form with an Activex part but i cant pass my CrystalViewer in it. Always says specified cast not valid.
    Thanks

  • Help with a PowerPivot query

    Hi,
    I've got a server audit log in PowerPivot (114,000 rows) which I provide some basic reporting from (PowerPivot is not my specialist subject so go easy).  What I now need to perform a Distinct filter, but can't get the logic right. Basically the log
    as two bits of information, 1) is the source of the job and 2) if it was a success or failure.    What I need to do is to find all of the Source items that have never completed sucessfully.  Any ideas on what formula is best to use, or
    do I need to split in to multiple sheets and create a table relationship?
    Source,Status
    ======,======
    Source1,Fail
    Source1,Fail
    Source1,Success
    Source2,Fail
    Source3,Fail
    Source3,Success
    So in the above example, I would only expect the filter to show me Source2
    Thanks
    Alex

    Hi Alex,
    using Power Query instead, it would work like this:
    Once you've pushed your table to PQ, add a column "helper" with value=1.
    Then pivot on "Status", taking "helper"-column into "values column"
    (hope translation is understandable, as I'm using localized Version & translation via "Quick info" isn't working in the PQ menu)
    Then filter on column "Success" = blank.
