How to achieve outer join operator(+) in HQL?

Dear all,
The two tables employee and customer have not explicate association (by FK and PK). In Oracle SQL, we can use the operator (+) as follows for an outer join. For example,
SELECT * FROM employee, customer where employee.name = customer.name(+)
However, HQL does not support this outer join operator. How can we translate the above SQL select to HQL?
Regards.

Yes, but I did not get any solution.
Hibernate has something to do with java. You can not say for example java has nothing to do with Internet or Internet has nothing to do with Computer. Anyhow, thanks for your reply.

First, is this query being executed within Apex or at the SQL prompt or in SQL Workshop, or something else? Some context of where it's being executed may help.
Next, that's a query from hell. How about rewrting it to use ANSI join syntax instead, so it'a bit more readable?
A quick example for part of it would be:
FROM (additional_addr aa LEFT OUTER JOIN estblmt e ON aa.estblmt_id = e.estblmt_id )
etc.
Just add additional parenthesis for each additional table join, similar to:
FROM ((additional_addr aa LEFT OUTER JOIN estblmt e ON aa.estblmt_id = e.estblmt_id )
LEFT OUTER JOIN src_country_state_region scsr ON aa.state_region_id = scsr.state_region_id )
In the long run it will make the query a bit more legible, so your where clause only lists the query conditions, not the join conditions. Then it becomes easier to quickly glance at it and see where potential problems may be.

Please help me how to use this outer join condition.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
If you want all the rows from goh, then you don't want any conditions like goh.OFFER_NO <> 0.
Make all the joins to goh outer joins, and make all conditions that apply to any tables joined to goh (or to tables joined to them) part of the join condition, like this:
FROM             APPS_JP.GEDIS_OFFER_HEADER     goh
LEFT OUTER JOIN APPS_JP.GEDIS_ORDER_BUILDS     gob ON   gob.OFFER_NO = goh.OFFER_NO
                                                     AND gob.BUILD_NO = 1
LEFT OUTER JOIN APPS_JP.GEDIS_ORDER_LINES      gol ON   gol.OFFER_NO = goh.OFFER_NO
                                                     AND gol.BUILD_NO = 1
                                                     AND gol.LINE_NO = 1
LEFT OUTER JOIN APPS_JP.GEDIS_OFFER_RELATED_CUSTOMER
                                                gorc ...
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all the tables involved, and the results you want from that data.
Simplify the problem as much as possible. For example, do you really need all those tables to show what the problem is? Of course, you need them in tyour real query, but if you understand a solution that only involves 4 or 5 tables, you'll know how to apply it to any number of tables.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.Always say what version of Oracle you're using (e.g. 11.2.0.2.0).

Outer Join problems - "ORA-30563 outer join operator (+) not allowed in select-list"

Products: Discoverer 4.1.33.0.2
(Admin and User/Plus)
8i EE 8.1.7 (Discoverer server)
8i EE 8.1.5 ('source data' server)
Background assumptions: (1) If a column from an "outer-joined" table is compared to a constant, the outer join operator must be applied to that column in order for the outer join to work. (2) A 'Condition' specified in Discoverer User/Plus manifests as a comparison to a constant.
I created a join in Admin between two folders, selected 'outer join on detail' option. In User/Plus, created worksheet containing columns from the joined folders. When no Conditions are NOT specified, results seem ok. However, when Condition IS added, worksheet encounters "ORA-30563 outer join operator (+) not allowed in select-list" and returns blank sheet.
To workaround, created Custom folder with outer join in place. Didn't work either with Conditions specified. No error, but I think that because Discoverer did not 'outer join' the Condition column, the outer join was ignored.
Any insights, ideas, or workarounds are much appreciated.
-Jim

If you build a query that uses an outer join then any items from the potentially deficient side of the join will have (+) appended to them everywhere in the sql. Up until 8.1.7 this was OK in the select list as it was just treated as noise and ignored - However this now fails with ORA-30563:
outer join operator (+) not allowed in select-list...
In 4.1.33.1.6 you get the error 'ORA-30563 outer join operator(+) not allowed in select list'.
In 4.1.36.1.10 the query runs OK.. Your work around I would guess would be to create a custom folder as you suggested.

How to use outer join in Target table

hi all:
how to use outer joing and trunc in target table?

Good morning,
Can you be more specific?
What do you want to join, what needs to be truncated, what's the Loading Type of your target table-object, etc.
In general the following applies.
An outer join is specified on the JOIN operator, under Operator Properties you can specify the Join Condition, for example:
tab1.uk_col1 = tab2.uk_col1(+)
and
tab1.uk_col2 = tab2.uk_col2(+)Truncating a table in a mapping can only be done in combination with inserting the dataset, setting the loading type of a table to TRUNCATE/INSERT.
Apart from that there is a predefined OWB transformation called WB_TRUNCATE_TABLE, this can also be used to truncate a table.
Cheers, Patrick

Non-ANSI Outer Join Operator Issue (reposted due to text issues)

I am currently using Designer 11.5.0.0. Itu2019s XI Rel 2, but Iu2019m not sure what service pack. I have created several universes with outer joins against a SQL Server 2005 database, but when I try using them in a Crystal report, I get the following error:
Failed to retrieve date from the database. Details: 42000:[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] The query uses non-ANSI outer join operators (u201C=u201D or u201C=u201D). To run this query without modification, please set the compatibility level for current database to 80 or lower, using stored procedure sp_dbcmptlevel. It is strongly recommended to rewrite the query using ANSI outer join operators (LEFT OUTER JOIN, RIGHT OUTER JOIN). In the future versions of SQL Server, non-ANSI join operators will not be supported even in backward-compatibility modes.
Here is my ODBC DSN configuration:

Okay, so I understand what the issue is. It appears that the version of Designer that I am using does not default the ANSI92 parameter to u201CYesu201D. So all the outer joins I have created in each of my universe are using the old *= as the join operator. And apparently, the ODBC driver I am using is not very happy with that.
As I understand it from what Iu2019ve read on other sites, I have the following options:
1) Set the ANSI92 parameter to Yes, drop all my joins, close and re-open Designer, and recreate all of the joins.
2) Find a different driver or connectivity method that will support non-ANSI joins.
3) Set my database back to SQL 2000 compatibility.
Option 1 is unappealing as it will cause a lot of time redoing all the work that Iu2019ve spent the past month doing. Option 2 is only a band-aid fix at best. Option 3 really isnu2019t an option for us.

So I am wondering what other options I have to change these non-ANSI joins to ANSI compatible joins. Do I need to update Designer with a service pack? Is there a script out there that will automatically do this in each of the universes? I would appreciate any suggestions or guidance on this.
Thanks,

Hi,
try the following:
open your universe in the Universe designer, go to File->Parameter, select the Parameter tab and change the value of the ANSI92 parameter from No to Yes.

AND t692.event_type = t821.event_type_dim_key(+)
AND t821.event_type_category(+) = 'RECEIVE_FEE' (THIS IS THE FILTER CONDITION, AT THE MOMENT IT DOESN'T WORK WITH OUTER JOIN SYMBOL)
Please could you let me know the best way of achieving the above.
Thanks

In the BMM layer in the join condition you will be able to specify the join to be (left, right or full outer join).
You can even add the required table in the LTS(logical table source) and also specify a left, right or full outer join there as well.
There is an interesting work around as mentioned in the below blog to get to the Outer join results with out changing anything in rpd but in Answers.

How to use outer join to display the results

I want to develop a report in which the column sequence will be as follows:
1)Item_code
2)Item_name
3)Stock
4)Pending
5)Re-order Level
6)Item_reorder_qty
I had written the query, but the problem is all the products does not get displayed. The products are more than 700. But after running the query, only 364 gets displayed.
How i can make use of outer join in the following statements :
AND ITEM_CODE = LCS_ITEM_CODE
AND ITEM_CODE = PI_ITEM_CODE
AND LCS_ITEM_CODE = PI_ITEM_CODE
in the below given query to solve this.
SELECT
ITEM_CODE,
ITEM_NAME,
((LCS_STK_QTY_BU + LCS_RCVD_QTY_BU - LCS_ISSD_QTY_BU- LCS_REJECT_QTY_BU)/IU_MAX_LOOSE_1)STK ,
SUM(TO_NUMBER(PI_QTY||'.'||PI_QTY_LS) - (PI_GI_QTY_BU/IU_CONV_FACTOR/IU_MAX_LOOSE_1))PNDG,
ITEM_RORD_LVL,
ITEM_RORD_QTY
FROM
OM_ITEM,
OM_ITEM_UOM,
OT_PO_HEAD,
OT_PO_ITEM,
OS_LOCN_CURR_STK
WHERE (ITEM_UOM_CODE = IU_UOM_CODE AND ITEM_CODE = IU_ITEM_CODE)
AND ITEM_CODE = LCS_ITEM_CODE
AND ITEM_CODE = PI_ITEM_CODE
AND LCS_ITEM_CODE = PI_ITEM_CODE
AND LCS_LOCN_CODE ='RM'
AND PI_PH_SYS_ID = PH_SYS_ID
GROUP BY ITEM_CODE,ITEM_NAME,LCS_STK_QTY_BU,LCS_RCVD_QTY_BU,LCS_ISSD_QTY_BU,LCS_REJECT_QTY_BU,IU_MAX_LOOSE_1,ITEM_RORD_LVL,ITEM_RORD_QTY
ORDER BY ITEM_CODE ASC

As you have no table aliases I can't tell what columns relate to which tables on your join conditions.
Can you not just put (+) next to the outer joined columns you require on the where clause? Or perhaps consider using ANSI syntax for the joins such as <tableA> LEFT OUTER JOIN <tableB> ON (<join conditions>)

ORA-01719: outer join operator (+) not allowed in operand of OR

Hi all:
I understand the error, but I'm not sure how to fix my query. In our database, a person does not NEED to have an address. The report I'm trying to create has a parameter for which address the user would like to have displayed. BUT, I need to outer join to the address table since people don't need an address, but we'd want to display all records, even if the address is null. Here's only part of my code since the query is quite large. Let me know if more is needed, and I'll supply it. I'm definately stuck. At this point I'm thinkin' of just creating two reports; one that displays the clients address, and a second that'll display the house physical address. The code:
WHERE
:P_ADDR = 'Lessee Mailing Address' AND
lessee.actor_inst = address.actor_inst (+)
) OR (
:P_ADDR = 'Unit Address' AND
housing.actor_inst = address.actor_inst (+)
) AND

Stick with ANSI SQL Notation, then you can overcome this restriction.
See Back to basics: outer joins
and look for »ORA-01719«

How to use outer join in Corelated Update?

Hi,
I am using outer join in correlated update comand. But it is not updating the line which is not retrived from the query. Below is the example.
Update model_table a
Set a.model = (Select b.model_name from parts_table b
                    where b.model_id (+) = a.model_id)Check the above query and please let me know whether can user like this or not?
Thanks

Updating the values you want through subqueries is tricky. The correlated update should perform okay if the join columns are indexed but updating the correct rows may take some thought.
You might need to add a WHERE clause to the update to use the subquery to only update the rows when the subquery return value is not null - if this is what you want. Something like
Update model_table a
Set a.model = (Select b.model_name from parts_table b
                    where b.model_id = a.model_id)
where exists (Select b.model_name from parts_table b
                    where b.model_id = a.model_id)Edited by: riedelme on Jan 4, 2010 5:59 AM

How to use outer join on 2 tables with Oracle 8i

Could anyone tell me the Oracle 8i syntax equivalent to :
select user.name, city.adress, contry.name
from user
left outer join city on (user.rCity = city.code)
left outer join country on (user.rCountry = country.code)
I tried following :
select user.name, city.adress, contry.name
from user, city, contry
where user.rCity (+) = city.code
and user.rCountry (+) = country.code
but displayed following error :
ORA-01417: a table may be outer joined to at most one other table
Thank you

Logically I would expect a user to have a city and a country, or not. In that case the outer join should be on the other tables. Making your query:
select user.name, city.adress, country.name
from user, city, country
where user.rCity = city.code (+)
and user.rCountry = country.code (+);

How to do outer join select query for an APEX report

Hello everyone,
I am Ann.
I have one select statement that calculate the statistics for one month(October 2012 in this example)
select ph.phase_number
, sum ( (case
WHEN ph.date_finished IS NULL OR ph.date_finished > last_day(TO_DATE('Oct 2012','MON YYYY'))
THEN last_day(TO_DATE('Oct 2012','MON YYYY'))
ELSE ph.date_finished
END )
- ph.date_started + 1) / count(def.def_id) as avg_days
from phase_membership ph
inner join court_engagement ce on ph.mpm_eng_id = ce.engagement_id
inner join defendant def on ce.defendant_id = def.def_id
where def.active = 1
and ph.date_started <= last_day(TO_DATE('Oct 2012','MON YYYY'))
and ph.active = 1
and UPPER(ce.court_name) LIKE '%'
group by rollup(phase_number)
Result is as below
Phase_Number     AVG_DAYS
Phase One     8.6666666666666667
Phase Two     14.6
Phase Three     12
     11.4615365
I have other select list mainly list the months between two date value.
select to_char(which_month, 'MON YYYY') as display_month
from (
select add_months(to_date('Aug 2012','MON YYYY'), rownum-1) which_month
from all_objects
where
rownum <= months_between(to_date('Oct 2012','MON YYYY'), add_months(to_date('Aug 2012','MON YYYY'), -1))
order by which_month )
Query result is as below
DISPLAY_MONTH
AUG 2012
SEP 2012
OCT 2012
Is there any way that I can join these two select statement above to generate a result like:
Month          Phase Number     Avg days
Aug 2012     Phase One     8.666
Sep 2012     Phase One     7.66
Oct 2012     Phase One     5.66
Aug 2012     Phase Two     8.666
Sep 2012     Phase Two     7.66
Oct 2012     Phase Two     5.66
Aug 2012     Phase Three     8.666
Sep 2012     Phase Three     7.66
Oct 2012     Phase Three     5.66
Or
Month          Phase Number     Avg days
Aug 2012     Phase One     8.666
Aug 2012     Phase Two     7.66
Aug 2012     Phase Three     5.66
Sep 2012     Phase One     8.666
Sep 2012     Phase Two     7.66
Sep 2012     Phase Three     5.66
Oct 2012     Phase One     8.666
Oct 2012     Phase Two     7.66
Oct 2012     Phase Three     5.66
And it can be order by either Phase Number or Month.
My other colleague suggest I should use an left outer join but after trying so many ways, I am still stuck.
One of the select I tried is
select a.display_month,b.* from (
select to_char(which_month, 'MON YYYY') as display_month
from (
select add_months(to_date('Aug 2012','MON YYYY'), rownum-1) which_month
from all_objects
where
rownum <= months_between(to_date('Oct 2012','MON YYYY'), add_months(to_date('Aug 2012','MON YYYY'), -1))
order by which_month )) a left outer join
( select to_char(ph.date_finished,'MON YYYY') as join_month, ph.phase_number
, sum ( (case
WHEN ph.date_finished IS NULL OR ph.date_finished > last_day(TO_DATE(a.display_month,'MON YYYY'))
THEN last_day(TO_DATE(a.display_month,'MON YYYY'))
ELSE ph.date_finished
END )
- ph.date_started + 1) / count(def.def_id) as avg_days
from phase_membership ph
inner join court_engagement ce on ph.mpm_eng_id = ce.engagement_id
inner join defendant def on ce.defendant_id = def.def_id
where def.active = 1
and ph.date_started <= last_day(TO_DATE(a.display_month,'MON YYYY'))
and ph.active = 1
and UPPER(ce.court_name) LIKE '%'
group by to_char(ph.date_finished,'MON YYYY') , rollup(phase_number)) b
on a.display_month = b.join_month
but then I get an error
SQL Error: ORA-00904: "A"."DISPLAY_MONTH": invalid identifier
I need to display a report on APEX with option for people to download at least CSV format.
I already have 1 inteactive report in the page, so don’t think can add another interactive report without using the iframe trick.
If any of you have any ideas, please help.
Thanks a lot.

First of all, a huge thanks for following this Frank.
I have just started working here, I think the Oracle version is 11g, but not sure.
To run Oracle APEX version 4, I think they must have at least 10g R2.
This report is a bit challenging for me.I has never worked with PARTITION before.
About the select query you suggested, I run , and it seems working fine, but if I try this,
it return error ORA-01843: not a valid month

The requirements are:
The user must be able to request the extract for one or more calendar months, e.g.
May 2013
May 2013 – Sep 2013.
The file must contain a separate row for each calendar month in the requested range. Each row must contain the statistics computed for that calendar month.
The file must also include a row of totals.
The user must be able to request the extract for either Waitakere or Auckland or Consolidated (both courts’ statistics accumulated).
Then the part that I am stuck is
For each monitoring phase:
Phase name (e.g. “Phase One”)
Avg_time_in_phase_all_particip
for each phase name,
Add up days in each “phase name” Monitoring Phase, calculated as:
If Monitoring Phase.Date Finished is NULL or > month end date,
+(*Month end date* Minus Monitoring Phase.Date Started Plus 1)+
Otherwise (phase is complete)
+(Monitoring Phase.Date Finished Minus Monitoring Phase.Date Started Plus 1.)+
Divide by the numbers of all participants who have engaged in “phase name”.
This is the words of the Business Analyst,
I try to do as required but still struggle to identify end_month for the above formula to display for the range of months.
Of course, I can write two nested cursor. The first one run the list of month, then for each month, run the parameterised report.
But I prefer if possible just use SQL statements, or at least a PL/SQL but return a query.
With this way, I can create an APEX report, and use their CSV Extract function.
Yes, you are right, court_name is one of the selection parameters.
And the statistics is not exactly for one month. It is kind of trying to identify all phases that are running through the specified month (even phase.date_started is before the month start).
This is the reason why I put the condition AND ph.date_started <= last_day(TO_DATE('Oct 2012','MON YYYY')) (otherwise I get negative avg_days)
User can choose either one court "AA" or "BB" or combined which is all figures.
Sorry for bombarding you a lot of information.
Thanks a lot, again.
