How to distinct records?

hi,
i need to distinct records in my query but i don't know how to do that.
i use SQLX functions. this is my query:
select xmlelement ("narqdi",
xmlelement ("order",
(select xmlagg (
xmlconcat (
xmlelement ("nom_order", nor.nom_order),
xmlelement ("nch", nor.chnom1),
xmlelement ("partida",
(select xmlagg (
xmlconcat (
xmlelement ("npartida", nor2.npartida),
xmlelement ("ppnom",
(select xmlagg (xmlelement ("pnom", nor3.pnom))
from narqd_order nor3
where nor3.nom_order = nor2.nom_order
and nor3.npartida = nor2.npartida
from narqd_order nor2
where nor2.nom_order = nor.nom_order
from narqd_order nor
where nor.NOM_ORDER = '5970'
from dual
i have 18 records in table for record nom_order = '5970' and i receive 18 tags <partida> and 18 tags for each ppnom :(
please help me.
i tried to put distinct in every select but this is no reason.
i tried to put agregate function in each select statement but in select for <pnom> it does not work...
best regards

Arti,
Here's another solution (that will still use locking, and can help avoid the "lost update" problem):

How can I get the number of distinct records that each field of a DB table has?

Hi everyone,
I would like to know how to get he number of distinct records that each field of a DB table has. When tracing a SQL statement either in ST12 or ST05, in the plan execution, if the sentence made useage of an index, then I can click in the index name and see this kind of information (no. of distinct values for each field of that index).
Can I do something like this but with the whole fields of a table?
What I have found until now is in Tx ST10; I search for whatever kind of table statistics and then use the function of "Analyze table" (which takes me to Tx DB05). In here, I can enter a table and up to 5 fields in order to get the information that I want.
Is there any other way to do this?

David Reza

Hi David,
You can export the same to excel and sort as per requirement.
Sorry is that what you are looking for ?

Select distinct records in Mapping with no Key field (all fields can vary)

Hi Experts,
Let me take an example (not the actual requirement but same scenario) to explain the problem where I need your help to get best possible way to resolve. This has to be achieved in mapping, don't have other options as its part of complex end 2 end scenario.
I have following input XML:
<Employee>
   <Details>
      <Id>123</Id>
      <Name>ABC</Name>
     <Role>Manager</Role>
      <Area>Bangalore</Area>
    </Details>
    <Details>
       <Id>123</Id>
       <Name>ABC</Name>
        <Role>Manager</Role>
         <Area>Pune</Area>
     </Details>
      <Details>
       <Id>123</Id>
       <Name>ABC</Name>
        <Role>Advisor</Role>
         <Area>Bangalore</Area>
     </Details>
      <Details>
       <Id>123</Id>
       <Name>ABC</Name>
        <Role>Manager</Role>
         <Area>Bangalore</Area>
       <Details>
       <Id>143</Id>
       <Name>ABC</Name>
        <Role>Manager</Role>
         <Area>Bangalore</Area>
     </Details>
</Employee>
The output XML is:
<Employee>
   <MainRec>
       <Id>123</Id>
        <Name>ABC</Name>
         <table name = 'Roles'>
               <record>
                      <Id>123</Id>
                       <Role>Manager</Role>
                        <Area>Bangalore</Area>
                  </record>
                  <record>
                      <Id>123</Id>
                       <Role>Manager</Role>
                        <Area>Pune</Area>
                  </record>
                  <record>
                      <Id>123</Id>
                       <Role>Advisor</Role>
                        <Area>Bangalore</Area>
                  </record>
              </table>
      </MainRec>
      <MainRec>
        <Id>123</Id>
        <Name>ABC</Name>
         <table name = 'Roles'>
               <record>
                      <Id>143</Id>
                       <Role>Manager</Role>
                        <Area>Bangalore</Area>
                  </record>
            </table>
        </MainRec>
</Employee>
As you can see from the example above, here I want to populate only distinct records under table, but there is no key fiield to ditunguish. Any of the 3 fields (Id, Role,Area) can vary and between 2 records if all of these fields are same then its duplicate else select it. So in above XML just discard the 4th record from the source XML and populate all others. Each record has to be checked against all other records all 3 values (ID, Role, Area). Only when none of the records have exactly the same values, populate it.
Also records with different ID come under different table node. Hope my requirement is clear, if not please let me know, i will try to explain better.
I thought of creating a UDF to achieve this but not able to decide how to match it to the output message here.
Best Regards,
Pratik

Hi,
For the main record, I think you only need to check for each unique ID, e.g
Id --> removeContext --> sort:ascending --> splitByValue:valueChanged --> collapseContext --> MainRec
For the record, however, you need to create a UDF that will filter out the duplicate values. For this, the UDF sample mentioned here contained multipleResult lists
Id --> removeContext --> concat: : --> concat: : --> UDF --> splitByValue:ValueChanged --> record
role --> removeContext --> /          /                \ --> Id
area --> removContext -------------> /                  \ --> role
                                                         \ --> area
Context type UDF
Arguments: input
Result: IdResult
Result: roleResult
Result: areaResult
Vector temp = new Vector();
for(int a=0;a<input.length;a++){
   if(!temp.contains(input[a])
         temp.add(input[a]);
for(int a=0;a<temp.size();a++){
   String tmp = (String) temp.get(a);
   /*split according to field */
   IdResult.addValue(tmp.substring(0,tmp.indexOf(":")));
   roleResult.addValue(tmp.substring(tmp.indexOf(":")+1,tmp.lastIndexOf(":")));
   areaResult.addValue(tmp.substring(tmp.lastIndexOf(":")+1,tmp.length()));
note: Id and record will both be using the IdResult list.
Hope this helps,
Mark

"Select Distinct Records" Option Not Available

Hello Experts.
I am working on a new report in CR XI, and noticed that I had many duplicate records. I went to the File; Report Options; and expected to click on "Select Distinct Records", but that choice was grayed-out. What would have caused me to lose this option, and how do I fix it?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Not sure if this covers it or not, but....
The Select Distinct Records command is only available for ODBC, OLE DB, and SQL native drivers; it is not available for Stored Procedures. Note also that your server may automatically sort returned values if no sort is specified in Crystal Reports.

Distinct records

hi all,
i am calculating sum for one column but i want sum for the distinct records from the table
SELECT D_NUMBER,D_TYPE,SUM(D_AMT)
FROM D_TABLE
WHERE D_CODE =:PARAMETER
GROUP BY D_NUMBER,D_TYPEin the above case D_NUMBER,D_TYPE may repeat i want the amount for distinct records. how can i for a query to get (tried with distinct but not getting the correct sum..
Thanks..

Hi,
so you searching for something between d_number,d_type and d_amt and the sum of d_amt based on the first two. Then you need a differentiator, how do you do make the first 2 distinct based on some other column, so these 3 will be distinct, otherwise it will not be possible, except if you say the first 3 rows belong together, and that is what I want to be summed.

Distinct records with conditional select formula

Post Author: nelsonchris
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Hello,
I have a simple report pulling data from two tables. I want
only distinct records. I am selecting records based on
parameters; here is the select formula:
({?Service Name} = "*" or {selsvc.ServiceName} like
{?Service Name})and
({?Program Name} = "*" or {selsvc.Selected Service Entry
Program Name} like {?Program Name}) and
({?Agency Name} = "*" or {selsvc.Selected Service Entry
Agency Name} like {?Agency Name})
The problem comes from the fact that Crystal will add the
selsvc fields to the reports SQL select code, which has the
effect of duplicating some records that do not have the same
values for the selsvc fields. The select formula above is
the only place in the report where values from the selsvc
field are used, and as you can see they are only used when
the user has submitted a matching parameter for them. I can
not figure out how to get rid of the duplicates, please
help!
Thanks for your time,
Chris

I don't follow why you are getting duplicates with your selectionare you getting duplicates without the selection criteria?if you are then they really are not duplicates and there could be issues with your joins between the 2 tables

Distinct Records Selection in Crystal 11

Need to select Distinct Records only, but the drop down under 'Database' shows the 'Select Distinct Records' option grayed out. Why does Crystal do that, and how may I eliminate duplicate records? Thanks!

Hi Brian,
This issue normally comes when there are multiple datasources being used. For example if you are using two databases, like Oracle and MS Access to fetch data, the "Select Dictinct Records" will be greyed out.
In this case, you might want to write a query in the Add Command option which select distinct records.
If you are using only one database, then check if you are able to select "Select Dinstinct Records" in the Database menu.
Please let us know if this helps.
Regards,
Abhishek.

Get Distinct records with a condition

I have a table with multiple records per Person and an active status column. I would like to fetch distinct records by PersonID and PersonName but also return active status with a condition that if person is active on at least one he is considered active.
Here is my table.
DECLARE @Person TABLE (PersonID INT, PersonName VARCHAR(50), DeptName VARCHAR(50), Active bit)
INSERT INTO @Person (PersonID, PersonName, DeptName, Active) VALUES (111, 'John', 'Finance', 0), (111, 'John', 'HR', 1),(222, 'Jack', 'Payroll', 0),(333, 'Mark', 'Facilities', 1),(444, 'Bill', 'IT', 0),(444, 'Bill', 'HR', 1),(444, 'Bill', 'Finance', 1)
My resultset after the query should be as follows.
(111, 'John', 1),(222,'Jack',0),(333,'Mark',1),(444,'Bill',1)
Thanks for the help.

>> I have a table with multiple records [sic] per Person and an active status column. <<
Rows are not records. Tables have to have a key by definition and since they model a set, the names are plural or collective. These are fundamentals that were covered in the first few chapters of any book on RDBMS. You do not know ISO-11179 naming rules.
You still use assembly language bit flags in SQL! A status is a state of being so it requires a temporal component. Do you really know people with FIFTY character name? Even in Poland and India, that is not likely. But when you allow garbage data, you will
get it.
Identifiers are CHAR(n), not numeric; what math do you do with them? Again, this is a fundamental of data modeling.
You are simply reenforcing your bad habits and not taking the time to learn how to do RDBMS correctly.
CREATE TABLE Personnel --- collective name!
(person_id CHAR(3) NOT NULL,
person_name VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL,
dept_name VARCHAR(10)NOT NULL,
hire_date DATE NOT NULL,
termination_date DATE,
CHECK (hire_date < termination_date),
PRIMARY KEY (person_id, hire_date)); -- null means current.
See how a valid design makes finding a status possible? And it shows us just what a mess you have! Bill is working in TWO departments! See how the key prevents this error? We should add more constraints, but I do not think you are ready for that yet.
SELECT person_id, person_name, dept_name AS current_dept_name
FROM Personnel
WHERE termination_date IS NULL;

Hi,
I am facing an issue in the addition of record in the type

( /* TODO enter attribute and method declarations here */
    V_Name Varchar2(500 Byte),
    v_Value Varchar2(500 Byte),
    v_count Number
I want to add records to the type I tried following way
prod_wcf_rec PROD_SEARCH_COUNT_TBL;
SELECT PROD_SEARCH_COUNT_OBJ('Name1','Value1',1) BULK COLLECT INTO prod_wcf_rec FROM DUAL;
    SELECT PROD_SEARCH_COUNT_OBJ('Name2','Value2',2) BULK COLLECT INTO prod_wcf_rec FROM DUAL;
    SELECT PROD_SEARCH_COUNT_OBJ('Name3','Value3',3) BULK COLLECT INTO prod_wcf_rec FROM DUAL;

   END LOOP;
   DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('-----------------------------Looping----------------------------');
In printing I am getting last records only .So is there any way to add records to PROD_SEARCH_COUNT_TBL
How to add records or how to maintain list in stored Procedure

Every time you BULK COLLECT into a collection type the value is overwirtten. So you need to try something like this.
SQL> create or replace type prod_search_count_obj as object(v_name varchar2(500 byte), v_value varchar2(500 byte), v_count number)
2 /
Type created.
SQL> create or replace type prod_search_count_tbl as table of prod_search_count_obj
2 /
Type created.
SQL> declare
2    prod_wcf_rec prod_search_count_tbl;
3 begin
4    select obj_val
5      bulk collect into prod_wcf_rec
6      from (
7            select prod_search_count_obj('name1','value1',1) obj_val from dual
8            union all

Record your voice using iPhone (for ringtone only 35 secs or under are valid), sync iPhone with iTunes.
In iTunes the recorded voice is listed under Music as some_numbers.m4a.
Right click on the item and choose Create AAC version.
Drag the converted voice onto the desktop.
Delete the voice copy in iTunes. (important step)
On desktop, rename the some_number.m4a to something_more_intelligent.m4r
Drag it back to iTunes and you will find it under Tones.
Now select it (for sync) and connect your iPhone, do a sync.
If everything works out, it will be in Settings > Sounds > Ringtone.
Now choose a contact you want to assign this ringtone, tap Edit and add the ringtone.
Hope this helps.
