MAX( ) function in 2 columns... Wrong Data

Hi Folks,
I have A DDIC Table with
mandt, Destination, Date, Time, KUNNR and some other columns.
Now I want to determine the LATEST entry for a KUNNR.
Now I did:
SELECT
       mandt desti kunnr MAX( erdat )
       MAX( ertim ) [..other nonkey fields.]
       FROM MYTABLE INTO wa
       WHERE desti = '10010'
       AND   kunnr = '0000000005'
       AND   not_checked = 'X'
       GROUP BY mandt desti kunnr [..other nonkey fields.].
WRITE [ALL FIELDS]
ENDSELECT.
Now I get 5(!) results:
001 RE3_001 5          11.03.2009 12:59:55
001 RE3_001 5          12.03.2009 15:29:01
001 RE3_001 5          11.03.2009 19:27:50
001 RE3_001 5          11.03.2009 13:23:30
001 RE3_001 5          30.06.2008 16:45:26
what is that?
I only needed the 12.03.2009 at 15:29:01 .....
what do I do wrong?
what about the MAX() ?

Try something like this:
SELECT
desti kunnr
FROM MYTABLE as o INTO wa
WHERE desti = '10010'
AND   kunnr = '0000000005'
AND   not_checked = 'X'
AND ertim = ( select max(ertim)
                     from mytable as i
                     where o~desti = i~desti
                       and o~kunnr = i~kunnr )
ENDSELECT.
Maybe you have to adopt the select statement above to fit your needs a little bit.

Max function for table having no rows

Hi All
I have a table in which initially no rows. I am running max() function for a column and then wnats to add 1.
But when no rows there below code in not working
select max(code) into p_maxCode from cms_codedetails where codetypeid=0;
p_maxCode:=p_maxCode+1;
dbms_output.PUT_LINE('p_maxCode: '||p_maxCode);
result is:
p_maxCode:
How can I handle the this to get 1 if no rows in the table .

Hi !
Max function in yur case returns NULL and then
null + <anything> ... is still null
You can do
p_maxCode:=nvl(p_maxCode,0)+1;
or
select nvl(max(code),0) into p_maxCode from cms_codedetails where codetypeid=0;
Of course if YOU have decide that null in this case can be treated as 0

Function sometimes return wrong data

Hi all.
I have a very strange problem with a function. Situation is this: I have an application that handles processes. Each process have a number of steps that is arranged in a matrix like layout. User clicks a step to start/execute it.
Now in a list of current processes i want to have an indication of how "far" a process has reached so i created a function for that and included that in my processlist fetch.
gchs_user_process_steps is the table where the user data for the process step is
gchs_process_steps is the definition table of what steps a process has
gchs_steps is the definition table of all steps
The below function is supposed to return latest step user clicked in the display matrix. tier is used to store the column number and sortorder is the row number of any step user clicked.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION FN_REACHEDSTEP(p_user_process_id NUMBER)
RETURN VARCHAR IS
  ret VARCHAR(30);
  ret_id INTEGER;
  ret_num INTEGER;
BEGIN
   ret := '';
   ret_id := 0;
   ret_num := 0;
   BEGIN
SELECT substr(step_name,1,30),step_id,reached INTO ret,ret_id,ret_num
FROM (
SELECT a.*, rownum rnum
FROM (
    SELECT s.name AS step_name, ps.id AS step_id, max((ps.tier*1000)+ps.sortorder) AS reached
    FROM gchs_user_process_steps ups, gchs_process_steps ps, gchs_steps s
    WHERE ups.gchs_process_step_id=ps.id AND
       ps.gchs_step_id=s.id AND
       ups.gchs_user_process_id=p_user_process_id
    GROUP BY s.name,ps.id
    ORDER BY 3 DESC) a
WHERE rownum <= 1 )
WHERE rnum >= 1;
   EXCEPTION
     WHEN OTHERS THEN
        ret:='';
   END;
      RETURN ret;
  EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
       ret := '';
   RETURN ret;
END FN_REACHEDSTEP;
Now the problem is that the function sometimes return wrong value. The name of the step that is returned is not the one i get if i run the SQL by itself.
So doing a
SELECT substr(step_name,1,30),step_id,reached INTO ret,ret_id,ret_num
FROM (
SELECT a.*, rownum rnum
FROM (
    SELECT s.name AS step_name, ps.id AS step_id, max((ps.tier*1000)+ps.sortorder) AS reached
    FROM gchs_user_process_steps ups, gchs_process_steps ps, gchs_steps s
    WHERE ups.gchs_process_step_id=ps.id AND
       ps.gchs_step_id=s.id AND
       ups.gchs_user_process_id=21680
    GROUP BY s.name,ps.id
    ORDER BY 3 DESC) a
WHERE rownum <= 1 )
WHERE rnum >= 1;
and a
select fn_ReachedStep(21680) from dual;
will sometimes return different values.
So is the function fundamentally wrong or is there any cache or something that i've missed that could hold "old" function outputs or am i missing something else.
Thankful for any clues.
I'm using Oracle 10.2.0.1.0

Relations beween table is
gchs_user_process_steps.gchs_process_step_id=gchs_process_steps.id
and
gchs_process_steps.gchs_step_id=gchs_steps.id
So doing the SQL alone will always return
SUBSTR(..)     STEP_ID REACHED
Step 5      10020 3005
but executing the function sometimes returns
FN_REACHEDSTEP(21680)
Step 6
Also removing the rownum limits return and doing a
SELECT s.name AS step_name, ps.id AS step_id, max((ps.tier*1000)+ps.sortorder) AS reached
FROM gchs_user_process_steps ups, gchs_process_steps ps, gchs_steps s
WHERE ups.gchs_process_step_id=ps.id AND
ps.gchs_step_id=s.id AND
ups.gchs_user_process_id=21680
GROUP BY s.name,ps.id,ps.tier, ps.sortorder
ORDER BY 3 DESC
give this result
STEP_NAME     STEP_ID     REACHED
Step 5          10020     3005
Step 6          10060     3004

ORDER BY 3 DESC) a
WHERE rownum <= 1 )
WHERE rnum >= 1;Just some thoughts.
1. You could replace "ORDER BY 3" by "ORDER BY reached"
2. the rownum <=1 and rnum>=1 will return only one row... I don't understand the second one.
Lastly, the difference might come from a duplicate value return by your MAX() function.
If there is two rows (or more) with same MAX, Oracle might return one row arbitrary.
To get the same row, you have to use some aggregation function like MAX() KEEP (DENSE_RANK LAST...).
Here a try for your query, obviously not tested :
SELECT max(substr(step_name,1,30)) keep (dense_rank last order by reached) as step_name,
       max(step_id) keep (dense_rank last order by reached,step_name) as step_id,
       max(reached) as reached
FROM   (SELECT s.name AS step_name,
               ps.id AS step_id,
               max((ps.tier*1000)+ps.sortorder) AS reached
        FROM   gchs_user_process_steps ups,
               gchs_process_steps ps,
               gchs_steps s
       WHERE   ups.gchs_process_step_id=ps.id
       AND     ps.gchs_step_id=s.id
       AND     ups.gchs_user_process_id=21680
       GROUP BY s.name,ps.id) a;Nicolas.

Bug? using MAX() function on char(1) column returns something larger

details:
-- we have a complex nested query, where we are essentially returning the max() value into a variable
-- the max() function is being used on a char(1) column
-- where MAX() is part of an inner select, we have started getting
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
errors.
SELECT MAX(X) INTO var FROM ... works in 9i and 10g
SELECT X INTO var FROM (SELECT MAX(X) X FROM ... worked in 9i, does not work in 10g!
-- We never had problems with the code until upgrading to 10g release 2.
-- the Solution is to cast the final value with TO_CHAR(). The cast MUST be done at the outer most point of the select:
SELECT TO_CHAR(X) INTO var FROM (SELECT MAX(X) X FROM ... works
SELECT X INTO var FROM (SELECT TO_CHAR(MAX(X)) X FROM ... causes an error!

I certainly looks like a bug, but you should raise an iTAR on Metalink since Oracle does not monitor this forum.
I was able to replicate your results on my 10.2.0.1 database.
There is an easier workaround than yours. Try
ALTER TABLE sql_bug_test MODIFY (z VARCHAR2(1));That seems to eliminate the problem on my instance.

Exporting historical data to text file with MAX misses columns of data?

I am using Labview 7.1 with DSC module 7.1 and wants to export data to either excel format or .txt.
I have tried this with the historical data export in MAX, and also programmatically with the "write traces to spreadsheet file.vi" available in the DSC module. All my tags in my tag engine file (*.scf) are defined to log data and events. Both the update tag engine deadband and the update database are set to 0 %.
My exported excel or text file seems reasonalbe except that some columns of data are missing. I dont understand
why data from these tags are not in the exported files since they have the same setup in the (.scf) as other tags which are okay exported?
All defined tags can be seen using the NI hypertrend or MAX. Also the ones that are not correctly exported to file.
Appreciate comments on this.
Best regards,
Ingvald Bardsen

I am using LV and DSC 7.1 with PCI-6251 and max 4.2. In fact, just one column of values does not make sense. In attachment, follows the excel exported file. The last of column called ...V-002 that is the problem. I put probes for checking values but them shows correct. When the file is exported that to show values wrong.
The problem of missing values in column i solved putting 0% in field of deadband.
thank you for your help

How to Avoid Errors in Max Function When Data Contains Blank Cells

I have a column with duration values. However, it also contains some blank cells. These "blank cells" have formulas in them, but as the cells they reference too are blank the formula doesn't produce a result.>/p>
I want to get the max value from this column. When I simply do =MAX(column-name) I get an error, presumably because some of the cells are blank. This table is going to be highly dynamic, so I don't want to limit the range of the MAX() function to only those cells with values.
So does anyone know a solution for this, please? If I was some how able to create a formula which returned the range of cells with actual values, then I could use that in the MAX() function. Or, if I could somehow tell the MAX() function to ignore blank cells, but I'm not sure either of these are possible.
Thanks,
Nic

I don't see a problem with "blank" (null string) cells mixed with duration cells. MAX works fine with this mix of cells. But if the "blank" cells are numbers, not text, that gives an error.
A formula always produces a result. A formula cannot result in a blank cell. The closest you can get to "blank" is a null string (the result of two quotes next to each other with nothing between them) . So the question is, what is the result that you are calling "blank"?

Some times I get a wrong data in my source file (above 4 and 5 th rows) .
My requirement is to remove these kind of wrong lines(entire lines to be removed) whenever XI reads the data. For this what is the standard function i can use in mapping. I thought I can create my own function to remove such kind of false data lines. It would be helpful for me if some body provide me the java code.
Thanks very much.

is it the .txt file you are keeping. Or the input in your mapping.
You just Tell your requirement properly.
If it is input in Mapping. Map like this
input ----->subtring( starting position 0 andNumber of characters 30) ---->Output
substring is a standard Text function.
Thanks.

How to use MAX() function with date field

Hi Frzz,
I have created a Graphical calculation view in which i have multiple records for each employee with different dates. But my requirement is to take the records which have maximum date.
I have converted the date into Integer and applied the MAX() function. But still am getting multiple records.
Is there is any other way we can achieve this requirement in Graphical Calculation view?? Your suggestion will really help me.
Thank you.
Krishna.

Hmm... what have you tried out so far?
Look, I took the effort and created a little example, just for you
Assume we have a table that contains the logon dates of users.
Every line contains the logon date and some info on the user.
Very much like a not-normalized log file could look like.
Now, the output we want is: one line per user with the most current logon time.
Not too difficult:
1. Have a aggregation node that gives you the distinct user details - one line for every user:
2. Have another aggregation node that gives you the last (MAX) logon date per user:
Finally you do a 1:1 join on the USER_ID and map the result to the output.
Easy as pie

Use COUNT or MAX functions inside of a query, and you have no data found

I'm writing a query with a COUNT and a MAX function.
    SELECT li.id
             , MAX(m.display_date)
            , COUNT(*)
     FROM li JOIN m ON (m.LIID=li.LIID)
    WHERE m.DISPLAY_DATE < SYSDATE - 7
    GROUP BY li.id;I would like to write a query that returns always a row foe each row in the table li.
If there are no records with the condition "WHERE m.DISPLAY_DATE < SYSDATE - 7", I would like to have a row with
- COUNT(*) = 0
- MAX(m.display_date) = TO_DATE('2010-06-08', 'YYYY-MM-DD'

Max() function in Data services

Hi Experts,
i'm using Data services (etl), and working on budget table(ms sql table),
1. the table has a field [budget amount] and [version_no],
2. before i extract the budget amount i need to know the highest version in [version_no] fields
3. can any body help me on this? i tried to use the script: ifthenelse(max(version-no),budget_amount, 0) but it retuns error when validation.
please help me on this:
thanks in advance
Archie72

Hi,
Connect a Query transform say Query1 from the source table
Inside Query1
select MAX(version no) into the output. Do not select the other budget field into the output.
Connect another Query transform say Query2 from the source table. Connect the output of Query1 also into Query2.
Inside Query2:
Join the source table and Query 1 in where
Query1.version no = SourceTable.version no
Select version no and budget into Query 2 output and connect it to target table.
Assuming that the source table has only version number and budget. You might have to tweak and make use of Group By as required where you use the MAX() function. SourceTable mentioned in the where condition will be replaced with your exact source table name

Max function on a date field

Hi,
I would like to know if it's possible to do a Max function between two dates ?
For instance I would like to do:
Date Y = Max (created date + 4 days) and (Date X + 3 days)
Thanks for your help,

Thank you Dinesh for your fast reply.
My request refer to a field management/WF.. So as you mentionned it's not possible in a standard way.
But what kind of "other conditional statement" are you talking about?
Regards,
Vincent

Since mountain lion Find in Numbers 3-4 columns of data missing and some columns in the wrong order. Fortunately I have a back up on my iPad and was able to put that version in as a new file. Why has this happened ?

Since mountain lion I have noticed 3-4 columns of data missing from a Numbers file. I have fortunately been able to replace the total file from my iPad version but why has this happened. Makes me lose trust in Numbers

That would be strange.

Max Function doesn

i have created a procedure in a form that return summary columns (count,max) and it is based in a view which is created containing 2 select statement. the problem is the max function doesn't return the max date in the first select statment in the Form. but if i run it in sql it does. i think the trouble is because this feild is a companition of two feilds(contract_Date and sysdate) ... i will add the view and the procedure below so it would be clear. but my question is : if the sql return the right result why the form can't show it.

thank you for your reply ...well, this is what is confusing me, it works in sql and it works in forms as well but not with the two date variables (To_RENEW, START_DATE)... if you had a look to the view, i posted the wrong one here but down below will be the one i am using. in the first select statment the date is a companition of CONTRACT_DATE
(to get the month and day of renewal date of the contract because i don't have it as a COLOUM in the table ) concatonated with sysdate to get only the year "IT IN BOLD IN THE VIEW" and in the second select statment it is availabe in the table, and it is returned correclty in sql and procedure of the form as well. so if there is something worng with procedure the other date will not be shown this is the part of the procedure that fill the form with data
(SELECT report, COUNT(EMP_ID) COUNT, TYPE, MAX(DATE_FROM) DATE_FROM FROM ATN_DLEV_DCON_VIEW1 WHERE EMP_ID IN (SELECT ID FROM PRS_EMPLOYEE_PROFILE) GROUP BY REPORT, TYPE) LOOP
:TASKS.REPORT := I.REPORT;
:TASKS.COUNT := I.COUNT;
:TASKS.TYPE := I.TYPE;
:TASKS.MAX_DATE := I.DATE_FROM;
V_COUNT := V_COUNT - 1;
IF V_COUNT <> 0 THEN
NEXT_RECORD;
this part ( MAX(DATE_FROM) works with the second select statment of the view and it doen't work for the first one in the form only but it does in sql foe both
i am waitin 4 ur eply

In XI pro, exporting PDF to Excel problem. Excel columns and data are not properly aligned. Help?

I used 30 day trial of Acrobat XI and all the functions work perfectly. But, when I buy the program (either download or disk) my PDF that export to Excel is not working. The excel columns and data are not properly aligned as they should be. The Trial version aligns everything perfectly. What is happening? I use a MAC 10.9.5. But this shouldn't matter because the trial version works perfectly. Can anyone help?

just found out that this is posted in the wrong section.

Max function in select statemnt

Hi,
   Can someone help me with what is wrong in the following query...How to use the max function
in ABAP program select statement??
Thanks..
LOOP AT IT_ANLA_ANLZ INTO WRK_ANLA_ANLZ.
SELECT KANSW
            FROM ANLC INTO TABLE IT_ANLC WHERE GJAHR IN ( SELECT MAX(GJAHR) FROM ANLC ) and ANLN1 = WRK_ANLA_ANLZ-ANLN1
            AND BUKRS = WRK_ANLA_ANLZ-BUKRS .
APPEND IT_ANLC.
ENDLOOP.

Hi,
You have write your select query once,
and then loop on the internal table into
which data will get populated for its display.
SELECT KANSW
FROM ANLC INTO TABLE IT_ANLC WHERE GJAHR IN
( SELECT MAX(GJAHR) FROM ANLC ) and ANLN1 = WRK_ANLA_ANLZ-ANLN1
AND BUKRS = WRK_ANLA_ANLZ-BUKRS .
Then loop at internal table:
LOOP AT IT_ANLA_ANLZ INTO WRK_ANLA_ANLZ.
write: / wrk_anla_anlz-fields.
Endloop.
Hope it helps
