Inserts on Sub (minus) Query

Ok. This is what I need to complete. I need to Insert from a minus subquery.
Here is my query where I need to insert the results.
select id_user, system_id, nm_database, cd_altname from accounts_temp
minus
select id_user, system_id, nm_database, cd_altname from accounts
From the results, I need to insert all fields into 'Accounts'. Note, that the four columns listed above in the subquery, are only 4 of the 15 columns in the tables; I need to insert *. I cannot use a the merge on b/c sometimes, the values of these columns are null.
Any thoughts?

or more simple
insert into accounts
select * from accounts_temp
where (id_user, system_id, nm_database, cd_altname) not in
(select (id_user, system_id, nm_database, cd_altname) from accounts)Although usually "not in" is not very fast. It could be replaced by "no exists" or compared for performance with the previous version.

Single Sub Row Query Returns More Than 1 Row!

I am trying to update values in a table from another table and getting the error: Single Sub Row Query Returns More Than 1 Row.
I want table B's PRV_NAME updated into table A's PRV_NAME where A.PRVID = B.PRVID where B.PRV_TYPE = M'
Both tables have all unique PRVID's, however, table B has PRVID's that have the same name. So table B data can look like this:
PRVID PRV_NAME
1234 PHOENIX MED
1235 SAC MED
1236 SAC MED
1237 OVERLAND
etc..
So, as you can see the PRVID's are unique, but not the PRV_NAME's. Is this the reason why I get this error?
I did not build the tables and have no control over what is put in them. If this is the reason for the error, is there any way to resolve this?
For reference, here is the query. Maybe there is something wrong with this?
update msb_prv_source ps
set ps.prv_name =
(select prv00.prv00_prv_name
from prv00_prv prv00
join msb_prv_source ps
on prv00.prv00_prv_id = ps.prvid
where prv00.prv00_prv_type = 'M')

;should work, whether the other columns are unique or not.
(Depending on your data and your requirements, you might want to use MERGE rather than UPDATE).
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.
In the case of a DML operation (such as UPDATE) the sample data should show what the tables are like before the DML, and the results will be the contents of the changed table(s) after the DML.
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).

I see you've posted your code now:
update msb_prv_source ps
set ps.prv_name =
(select prv00.prv00_prv_name
from prv00_prv prv00
join msb_prv_source ps
on prv00.prv00_prv_id = ps.prvid
where prv00.prv00_prv_type = 'M')Even if ps.prvid is unique, the sub-query can return more than 1 row if prv00.prv00_prv_id is not unique. When that that's the case, what do you want to happen? Include examples when you post the sample data and desired results.

PLW-07204: conversion away from column type may result in sub-optimal query

I have the following query in the package that created using sql developer. I am receiving the error 'PLW-07204: conversion away from column type may result in sub-optimal query plan' when try to compile the package. The issue is happen to be in the last line where the date is. Any help? Thanks

Try doing as a procedure instead of an anonymous block. It looks like warnings do not apply to blocks.

In this case, you can ignore the warning, as it is not correct. Sysdate and a date column have different internal data types (note the type 13 for sysdate and type 12 for the date column), and whatever internally generates the warnings seems to just compare the type number.

WebI:Creating a minus query from data providers not using the same universe

Hi there. A client of ours wishes to use Combined Query on multiple universes in the same WebI report. So far, I have heard it is not feasible in WebI. I know it is possible in DeskI. Even the sub-query option is limited to just one universe in WebI. So, I am stuck.
Is there a workaround to creating a minus query from data providers not using the same universe in WebI?

Hello Amit,
what are the Datasources ? Usually when you create a Sub Query you can choose a seperate Universe.
Maybe if you only see one Universe you only have the rights for this Universe ?!.

Need a procedure to make minus query as output for 2 tables

Can anybody help me to create a procedure so that I could get minus query of 2 table as a result.
Requirement:
I have two table 1- src_table_list ,2- tgt_table_list both tables have 2 columns : serial_no,table_name and 100 records each. and details mentioned in column "table_name" are actually tables name which present in my testing database.
so I need one procedure which will pick one table_name from src_table_list and one table_name from tgt_table_name each time recursively and provide minus query as a result. as below.
select c1,c2,c3,c4 from table1 --(fetched from src_table_list)
minus
select b1,b2,b3,b4 from table2 --(fetched from tgt_table_list)
Can any body give or help me to create the procedure..as I have to prepare minus query for more than 200 tables and then I need to test them for integration testing..
Edited by: 974253 on Nov 30, 2012 5:39 AM

select 'select '||chr(39)||src_table_list.tblname||chr(39)||','||chr(39)||trg_table_list.tblname||chr(39)||',count(*) from '||' ( select * from '||src_table_list.tblname||'minus select * from '||trg_table_list.tblname||');'
from src_table_list, trg_table_list
WHERE src_table_list.serial_no = tgt_table_list.serial_no
The above statement should give output similar to below code and will list down all the table names in the 2 tables(i.e. above src and trg) -
select 'src_table_list.tbl1','trg_table_list.tbl1',count(*) from
(select col1, col2 from src_table_list.tbl1 minus select col1, col2 from trg_table_list.tbl1 );
select 'src_table_list.tbl2','trg_table_list.tbl2',count(*) from
(select col1, col2 from src_table_list.tbl2 minus select col1, col2 from trg_table_list.tbl2 );
Now atleast you can run these statements as script and get to know what all tables are having count differences.
I might have missed out on some syntax part in above code but hope to have helped you in some way as you will be specific with number of tables to check for differences.

Conversion away from column type may result in sub-optimal query plan

Hello all,
I have the following select statement in a cursor compiled in a package.
SELECT id
FROM table
WHERE TRUNC(ts) >= TRUNC(SYSDATE - p_days)
However I get 4 warnings that read:
PLW-07204: conversion away from column type may result in sub-optimal query plan
Does anyone know of a way to rewrite the query to avoid the compilation warnings?
I'm just trying to compare the date without the time...
Thanks in advance
Dan

For what it is worth, whenever you compare a date column to either sysdate or any built-in function returning a date you will get that warning.

How to insert autoincrement record and query it with multiple keys

Hi all,
I am not familiar with BerkeyleyDB, I am now doing a project that needs to insert records and then query it out with multiple keys at later time. Since there is no field that can be distinct primary key, I want to user DbSequence as auto increment primary key to db, and set other index keys as secondary db, then using join cursor to do query with multiple keys.
I don't know how to use DbSequence, can anyone direct me to a example of using DbSequence as auto increment primary key?
Regards
-Bruce

I figured out the method to insert record with auto increment primary key. I listed the code block below:
char m_SeqNamePositions[32] = "MyPositions";
DbSequence *m_pSeqPositions;
m_pDBPositions = new Db(NULL, 0);
          m_pDBPositions->open(NULL, pszFileName, szFileName, DB_BTREE, DB_CREATE, 0);          // 无数据文件
          m_pSeqPositions = new DbSequence(m_pDBPositions, 0);
          Dbt key((void *)m_SeqNamePositions, (u_int32_t)strlen(m_SeqNamePositions));
          m_pSeqPositions->open(NULL, &key, DB_CREATE);
db_seq_t SeqNum;
     m_pSeqPositions->get(0, 1, &SeqNum, 0);
     Dbt key((void *)&SeqNum, (u_int32_t)sizeof(SeqNum));
     Dbt data(pRecord, sizeof(*pRecord));
     return m_pDBPositions->put(NULL, &key, &data, DB_NOOVERWRITE);
m_pSeqPositions->close(0);
          m_pDBPositions->close(0);
delete m_pSeqPositions;
delete m_pDBPositions;
          m_pDBPositions = NULL;

Optimizing MINUS query

Hi All,
Please help me in optimizing my MINUS query, I had created a web portal using pl/sql to view the difference between two data loads into a table each data load has its own version number.
for example:
consider table xx
Ver id opt Wcc code st_dt end_dt rate
253 2 xx NBK 0 8/1/2002 7/31/2005 0.02
253 2 xx NBK 0 8/1/2005 3/31/2006 0.01
258 2 yy BKN 0 4/1/2006 12/31/209 0.01
258 2 yy BKN 1 8/1/2002 7/31/2005 0.02
If the table is containing data in thousands my web portal is taking at least 5min to display the difference of the data present for version 253 and 258.
the MINUS query i have written in my code is
select
tab1.id, tab1.opt, tab1.Wcc, tab1.code,tab1.st_dt, tab1.end_dt, tab1.rate
from xx tab1,
(SELECT id,opt,Wcc,code,st_dt,rate FROM xx WHERE ver = 253
minus SELECT id,opt,Wcc,code,st_dt,rate FROM xx WHERE ver = 258 ) tab2
where tab1.id||tab1.opt||tab1.wcc||tab1.code||tab1.st_dt||tab1.rate=tab2.id||tab2.opt||tab2.Wcc||tab2.code||tab2.st_dt||tab2.rate
and tab1.ver in (258,253);
how can i optimize my query so that i can view the difference in min time through the web portal??

Minus query in ODI 3.4

hi everyone ,
can some please explain me how to do minus query in Odi . i am not allowed to create views so please such suggestion.
in short some method where i can compare two tables and extract only the data that is present in one table and if both have the same data ignore.
eg .
table 1
id desc flag
100 sdfsd 3
101 sdfsd 3
102 sdfds 3
table 2
id desc flag
100 sdfd 8
103 sdfd 8
105 dfsdf 8
result should be
id desc flag
100 sdfsd 3
101 sdfsd 3
102 sdfds 3
103 sdfd 8
105 dfsdf 8
i .e 8 should not update 3 flag data . in IKM update its lost and if i put update on both id and flag i have two copies . so i just want to compare and load all the date of table 1 completely and then table 2 which doesnt mached with id .
Please suggest .

Hi Dev,
For the situation as you described do something like:
1) load the firts table with IKM Control Append
2) Load the second table with the IKM Incremental Update but change the "UPDATE" option to "NO" and use the ID as KEY.
That will give you exaclty what you wanted because will only load the new records from second and ignore those that already exists in the target.

Sub select query Help

I have to do a task of finding records which matches the following logic.
My table has PID varchar(15), Amount varchar (50),Status varchar(20) columns.
Each PID can go thru changes in a period of time, in my case i dont have a data range I just have a flatfile which consists of three types of PID`s
123456 = Original_PID, Reversal =123456R1,Adjustment= 123456A1.
Basically What I am trying to find out if there are any original PID`s which has a Reversal or an Adjustment.
here`s the code I have started on... Can someone help me get it finished?
select R1. pid,a1.pid,org.pid from (
select SUBSTRING(Pid,1,11)as Original_PID, status, paid_amount as Amount from dbo.Q2STATUS)org
inner join (select SUBSTRING(Pid,1,13)as Original_Icn,status,paid_amount from dbo.Q2STATUS
where SUBSTRING(Pid,12,2) ='R1')r1 on r1.pid=org.pid
inner join (select SUBSTRING(claim_id,1,13)as Original_Icn,status,paid_amount from dbo.Q2STATUS
where SUBSTRING(Pid,12,2) ='A1')A1 on a1.Pid=org.PID
FM

Hi,
Please check following item
It uses a
SQL string function, please create it first
create table Q2STATUS (Pid nvarchar(200), Status varchar(20), paid_amount int)
insert into Q2STATUS select '123456 = Original_PID, Reversal =123456R1, Adjustment= 123456A1',NULL,250
with cte2 as (
select rn = row_number() over (order by pid), * from Q2STATUS
), cte as (
select cte2.*, s.id typeid, v.*
from cte2
cross apply dbo.split(cte2.Pid, ',') s
cross apply dbo.split(s.val, '=') v
), cte3 as (
select
rn, pid, status, paid_amount, max(pidtype) pidtype, max(pidval) pidval
from (
select
rn, Pid, status, paid_amount, typeid,
case when (typeid = 1 and id = 2) or (typeid <> 1 and id = 1) then ltrim(rtrim(val)) else null end as pidtype,
case when (typeid = 1 and id = 1) or (typeid <> 1 and id = 2) then ltrim(rtrim(val)) else null end as pidval
from cte
) g
group by rn, pid, status, paid_amount, typeid
select
cte2.rn, cte2.pid,
cte3.pidval as 'Original_PID',
cte4.pidval as 'Reversal',
cte5.pidval as 'Adjustment'
from cte2
left join cte3 on cte3.rn = cte2.rn and pidtype = 'Original_PID'
left join cte3 as cte4 on cte4.rn = cte2.rn and cte4.pidtype = 'Reversal'
left join cte3 as cte5 on cte5.rn = cte2.rn and cte5.pidtype = 'Adjustment'
Here is the result,
Please note that I have used
SQL CTE expressions a lot in the SQL query to prevent usage of sub-select and temp tables.
There is also a
SQL ROW_NUMBER() function used in the first SELECT statement to distinquish all items from each other instead of using the PID column value. Perhaps you have already an ID key column, you can use it too

But currently it retunrns no rows. The problem is in the having count(1)> 1 clause.
When i make =1, it returns rows. But no rows on > 1. I even tried inserting some rows to get the result >1
But still the query on a whole returns no rows.Please help.

SQL> Q1. As you may see we have an bunch of data where each row is unique combination of the columns value.
Q2. lets try to group it by fld1 and fld2 and fld3 columns. We don't expect any miracle and got the same data as Q1. Why? Because each row is unique combination(group) in scope of fld1, fld2, fld3 - count(1) exactly shows us that.
Q3. Q2 is explanation why we got no rows filter (having count(1) > 1)because the result of the clause is always false.
Q4. Lets put some duplication.
Q5. Now we got some new result. Count shows us group with more then one rows.
Q6. Shows us exact group which we've found in Q5.

How to insert code in a QUERY

Hi All,
I'm creating a Query to extract the data from EKKO, EKPO and EKKN.
here I have to insert a piece of code as checking below.
IF EKPO-KNTTP ne ' '. "not equal to blank
extract the data from table EKKN.
ENDIF.
here I need your help like how to write this code in a Query or Functional Area (Info Set).
Thanks,
Sunil Bodda.

Duplicate POST.....
select the query and go to QUERY in the menubar then goto more functions where you have an option display report name it will give you the report name.
Menubar ---> Quer ---> MoreFunctions ----> Display Reportname.
Goto SE80/SE38-->Report name and add the Codes in the program.

Checkbox in a minus query

Hello,
I am trying to use the checkbox function in the following query to produce a report with a checkbox but it is not working correctly -- the query is fine, but does not work when I place the checkbox function within it:
Select HTMLDB_ITEM.CHECKBOX(1,loginid) Grant,
lastname || ', ' || firstname fullname
from arxusers A
where a.rec_status = 'A'
minus
Select a.loginid,
lastname || ', ' || firstname fullname
from arxusers a , arxaccess b
where a.loginid = b.loginid
and b.rpt_id = :id
and a.rec_status = 'A'
Says from keyword not found where expected -- Can you not use the checkbox with a 'minus' SQL query

Can anyone please help me with this -- I even changed my query to a 'not exists' and I still get the same, 'From keyword not found where expected' error. Is the checkbox function in a report limited to just basic SQL report queries? That does not make sense. Here is my new query getting the same error:
SELECT HTMLDB_ITEM.CHECKBOX(1,a.loginid) Grant,
a.lastname || ', ' || a.firstname
from arxusers A
where a.rec_status = 'A'
and not exists (
select 'Y'
from arxaccess b
where a.loginid = b.loginid
and b.rpt_id = :id)
Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Jeff

Hi Sunil,
You need to code it in infoset. follow the steps below.
1. Goto SQ02, enter your infoset.
2. Click on "Extras" button(above find button). On the next page you will find a "Code" tab.
3. Declare a constant as space. choose DATA in the drop down for coding section.
4. Choose "Record processing" or if any other appropriate choice from the drop down in the coding section.
5. CHECK EKPO-KNTTP EQ c_space. and write your code here.
Hope this helps.
