Multiple cases based on Columns In SQL Query

There is a SQL query given below, that query performs DateDIff operation by selecting max and min date according to
TCard OR you can say id,
here' the query
SELECT
--COUNT(DIFF)
Count(DATEDIFF(D, MinDate, MaxDate)/30) AS DIFF
FROM (
SELECT
   MAX(TDate) AS MaxDate,
   MIN(TDate) AS MinDate
   FROM EDATA
   GROUP BY TCard
)a
Group by DATEDIFF(D, MinDate, MaxDate)/30
Now i want to apply some kind of sorting in this query before performing DateDiff operation (sorting can be based on several parameters
like age, name etc. but 1 at a time according to the cases) 
Now I want to know How to apply cases over this query and where?

You can apply sorting based on certain condition however you need to include those columns in your subquery. On custom sorting check out this article
here:
e.g.
SELECT CountryName
FROM   dbo.Country
ORDER BY CASE WHEN
CountryName = 'INDIA' THEN '1'
WHEN CountryName = 'CHINA' THEN
'2'
ELSE CountryName END ASC

    Hi karthik,
    I am sorry for the wrong updation of my anonymus block.
    My requirement is to pass a multiple values to the parameter in SQL query, and here is the code which is working now for the multiple values with ourt single quotes to the values -

    Condition for sending multiple Oprtaing Units -

    This above condition is working when i am passing multiple values with out single quotes...but not working for multiple values with single quotes.
    Sample queries tested -
    select 1 from dual where ',aa,bb,cc,' like '%,bb,%' (This is working)
    select 1 from dual where ','aa','bb','cc',' like '%,'bb',%'(This is not working).
    Thanks In Advance!

  • Combine multiple web services with the same SQL query into one

    Hello,
    I would like to ask a question regarding combine multiple similar web services into one. Can you please tell me if it is possible to combine 4-5 web services into one since they built on the same SQL query with 5 different criterias or condition so that the user can enter any of the 5 criterias to populate the data on the form instead of having 5 different web services?
    e.g Query: Select appName, permit#, address, phone, description, type, section, from table where appName = can be 'appName, permit#, address, phone, or description' to populate the rest of the data to the form.
    Does any one have ever done some thing like this in Workbench ES? If so please assist. I know it can be easier to build it in Visual Basic, C#, or dot.net but the requirement is to build it in workbench ES.
    Thanks in advance,
    Han Dao

    If you are querying for Name, PhoneNumber, and SSN, and you queried for all people with a phone number that started with 867, you would have a potentially long list of people.  So to keep track of all of the people, we store each record in XML complex elements.  The root node is just any name you want, and the repeating element is the complex element name. 
    So using the example from above, I'm going to specify the following:
         Root Node: Result
         Repeating Element: Person
    So now when I do a query, my resultXML will look like:
    <Result>
          <Person>
                 <Name>Alex</Name>
                 <PhoneNumber>867-5309</PhoneNumber>
                 <SSN>111-11-1111</SSN>
          </Person>
    </Result>
    If your query returned multiple results (like ours would probably), it would look like:
    <Result>
          <Person>
                 <Name>Alex</Name>
                 <PhoneNumber>867-5309</PhoneNumber>
                 <SSN>111-11-1111</SSN>
          </Person>
          <Person>
                 <Name>Han</Name>
                 <PhoneNumber>867-2169</PhoneNumber>
                 <SSN>222-22-2222</SSN>
          </Person>
    </Result>
    So Result and Person is just to give a little bit of structure to the xml result (containers really).  So you can name them whatever is helpful for you.
    The column name mappings map the query columns (Name, PhoneNumber, SSN) to some node in the XML (Name, PhoneNumber, SSN).  So you don't need to specify which field maps to what in the form.  Just copy the column names to the element name so you have a 1-to-1 naming.  If you want to manipulate the XML a bit though, you could do:
    Column Name               Element
    Name                            YourName
    PhoneNumber                Phone
    SSN                              Secret
    which would then make your xml look like:
    <Result>
          <Person>
                 <YourName>Alex</YourName>
                 <Phone>867-5309</Phone>
                 <Secret>111-11-1111</Secret>
          </Person>
    </Result>
    It lets you change the XML element names to whatever you want. Otherwise by default they take on their column names.
    In your form, you could bind to the WSDL through the Data Connections pane and point it to your web service.  This will then create form elements that you can just drag and drop allowing you to have the information available when the service gets ran.  Once the service is called, you can modify the field's data to get whatever information you need in order to populate other form fields. 
    If that is too confusing, feel free to send me your form (e-mail is on profile page) and I'll add comments to it to show you how to set up the form for the web service call (and also give me the link to your webservice)

  • Query based Report (Reports From SQL Query)

    Hi All,
    I am facing a problem with a report. I need your help.
    I am creating a Report From SQL Query (Portal) with some arguments passed at runtime. I am able to view the output, if the query returns few rows ( arount 1000 rows). But for some inputs it needs to generate >15000 records, at this point the page is getting time out (i think!) and showing error page. I am able to execute query from the SQL Plus console ot using TOAD editor. Here the query is not taking more that 2 mins time to show the result.
    If i am executing from Portal i observed that, once i give the appropriate input and hit submit button a new oracle process is getting created for the query on UNIX (I am usign "TOP" command to check processes). The browser page will be shown error page after 5 minutes (i am assuming session time out!) , but on the backend the process will be executed for more than 30 mins.
    Can i increase a timeout of portal page, how i can do this?
    The data returned as a result of the query is sized more than 10 MB. Is caching this much data is possible by the browser page? is the returned data is creating any problem here.
    Please help me to find appropriate reasone for the failure?

    Can you post the URL that is giving you the page not found error ? I am not sure if I can be of much help though.
    In order to increase your chances to get a reply you should also post your question in the Portal Forum - Oracle Application Server Portal

    How can i get it through SQL Query?. Please help me on that i have urgent work like this

    In effect because you are wanting to take X rows and squish them down to 1 row per id, you are gouping on the ID to typically a group by clause is the best way to do this.
    If you really wanted to do it without aggregate functions and a group by clause you would be looking for something like this...

  • Report based on PLSQL returning SQL query

    I created function which builds the SQL and returns it as VARCHAR2. For testing purposes I harcoded the primary ID for the query to be based on. I run the function as standalone call to get the generated SQL and to test it. It works fine. The moment I try to use the ID parameter as an argument passed to the function it doesn't work and I get the "No data found" error. Again if I try this function outside of Apex it produces correct SQL syntax and it runs.
    The function signature is really simple:
    FUNCTION abc(i_id NUMBER) RETURN VARCHAR2
    IS
    l_id NUMBER;
    BEGIN
    -- this works:
    -- l_id := 300;
    -- this doesn't work:
    l_id := i_id;
    ... more code follows. It uses the l_id while building the query.
    I also tried to make it an anonymous block and place it directly in Apex region. Again I face the same problem. I modified this function slightly to reference the page attribute instead of accepting parameter:
    DECLARE
    l_id NUMBER;
    BEGIN
    -- this works:
    -- l_id := 300;
    -- this doesn't work:
    l_id := :P65_ID;

    Have you verified that i_id and P65_ID have a value when the procedure runs? Perhaps have something along the lines of "if i_id is null then return 'select <dummy data> from dual' else [build real query here]"...?

  • Generating report based on dynamically generated sql query

    I have to rewrite asp reports to oracle reports.
    The original application has forms in asp where reports are generated dynamically based on the options selected.
    There are many options to select.
    Some add filter criteria to where clause.
    I have no problem with this. As i can generate report using parameter form.
    whereas i don't know how to generate reports whose columns change based on the user selection.
    The front end screens are going to be in java and jsp pages. The only way i can think of is generating reports on all possible options the user may select. But, as there are more than 15 options, i think this is not the right approach.
    How can i achieve this.
    Thank you very much.
    navya.

    One method that comes to mind would be to use an after parameter form, and use lexical parameters to create dynamic statements.
    For example in your after pform:
    If :P_NAME = 'JOHN' then
    :P_SELECT = 'SELECT COL1, COL2 ';
    :P_FROM = 'FROM JOHN ';
    :P_WHERE = 'WHERE COL3 = 'JOHN';
    END IF;
    Then in your query, you could say:
    &P_SELECT
    &P_FROM
    &P_WHERE
    Something like that - If only parts of you where statement will change, you can just write that one part -
    like
    IF :P_STATE is not null then
    :P_STATE = ' and table.state = :P_STATE_IN ';
    else :P_STATE = ' and 1=1 ';
    end if;
    and in your query...
    where....
    &:P_STATE
    So IF a person enters a state, then limit the search to that state, or else do a 1=1.
    Hope this gives you a start

  • Find a string between numeric in a column using SQL Query

    Hi need help with the query in SQL. let say i have a column that has 2000 data.. i just need to show the data that has A  at the strating of the data. For example:
    A100001
    W23456
    A234444
    I just need to show all the data got "A" at the start.
    Thank u

    I don't think there is any standard command, so you will need to search for the pattern matching commands of your DBMS.
    In SQL Server the keyword is "like", so your query would be Select col1 from tbl1 where col1 like 'A%'
    Try to take over the world!

  • Multiple SQL Query as Data Source

    I have an SQL Query as Data Source of my Crystal Report. It combine the contents of two tables.
    I want to do another SQL query based on the previuos SQL Query.
    Can I do this in CR ? How I can reference the new SQL query to the main SQL query ?
    Thanks,
    Gabriel

    This is my main Query
    SELECT

  • SQL Query (updateable report) Region - Conditionally Hide and Set Values

    SQL Query (updateable report) Region - Conditionally Hide and Set Values
    Outline of requirement :-
    Master / Detail page with Detail updated on same page using SQL Query (updateable report).
    The detail region has the following source
    SELECT item_id,
           contract_id,
           CASE WHEN hardware_id IS NOT NULL THEN
                   'HA'
                WHEN backup_dev_id IS NOT NULL THEN
                   'BD'
                WHEN hardware_os_id IS NOT NULL THEN
                   'HS'
           END item_type,
           hardware_id,
           backup_dev_id,
           hardware_os_id
    FROM   "#OWNER#".support_items
    WHERE  contract_id = :P26_CONTRACT_IDThe table support_items implements arced relationships and has the following columns
    CREATE TABLE SUPPORT_ITEMS
      ITEM_ID         NUMBER                        NOT NULL,
      CONTRACT_ID     NUMBER                        NOT NULL,
      HARDWARE_ID     NUMBER,
      BACKUP_DEV_ID   NUMBER,
      HARDWARE_OS_ID  NUMBER
    )A check type constaint on support_items ensures that only one of the fk's is present.
          (    hardware_id    IS NOT NULL
           AND backup_dev_id  IS NULL
           AND hardware_os_id IS NULL
    OR    (    hardware_id    IS NULL
           AND backup_dev_id  IS NOT NULL
           AND hardware_os_id IS NULL
    OR    (    hardware_id    IS NULL
           AND backup_dev_id  IS NULL
           AND hardware_os_id IS NOT NULL
          )    Hardware_Id is a FK to Hardware_Assets
    Backup_dev_id is a FK to Backup_Devices
    Hardware_os_id is a FK to Hardware_op_systems
    The Tabular Form Element based on item_type column of SQL query is Displayed As Select List (based on LOV) referencing a named list of values which have the following properties
    Display Value     Return Value
    Hardware Asset    HA
    Backup Device     BD
    Computer System   HSThe Tabular Form Elements for the report attributes for hardware_id, backup_dev_id and hardware_os_id are all Displayed As Select List (Based on LOV).
    What I want to do is only display the Select List for the FK depending on the value of the Select List on Item Type, e.g.
    Item_Type is 'HA' then display Select List for hardware_id, do not display and set to NULL the Select Lists for backup_dev_id and hardware_os_id.
    Item_Type is 'BB' then display Select List for backup_dev_id, do not display and set to NULL the Select Lists for hardware_id and hardware_os_id.
    Item_Type is 'HS' then display Select List for hardware_os_id, do not display and set to NULL the Select Lists backup_dev_id and hardware_id.
    There are properties on elements to conditionally display it but how do we reference the values of the SQL query Updateable region? they are not given a page item name?
    Also on the Tabular For Elements there is an Edit tick against a report item - however when you go to the Column Attributes there is not a property with which you can control the Edit setting.
    What's the best way of implementing this requirement in APEX 3.1?
    Thanks.

    Welcome to the forum: please read the FAQ and forum sticky threads (if you haven't done so already), and update your profile with a real handle instead of "user13515136".
    When you have a problem you'll get a faster, more effective response by including as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should include:
    <li>Full APEX version
    <li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
    <li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
    <li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
    <li>Theme
    <li>Template(s)
    <li>Region/item type(s) (making particular distinction as to whether a "report" is a standard report, an interactive report, or in fact an "updateable report" (i.e. a tabular form)
    With APEX we're also fortunate to have a great resource in apex.oracle.com where we can reproduce and share problems. Reproducing things there is the best way to troubleshoot most issues, especially those relating to layout and visual formatting. If you expect a detailed answer then it's appropriate for you to take on a significant part of the effort by getting as far as possible with an example of the problem on apex.oracle.com before asking for assistance with specific issues, which we can then see at first hand.
    I have a multi-row region that displays values and allows entries in a number of fields.Provide exact details of how this has been implemented. (An example on apex.oracle.com is always a good way to do this.)
    I should like the fields to be conditional in that they do not permit entry, but still display, if certain conditions apply (e.g. older rows greyed out). Can this be done? Almost anything can be done, often in multiple ways. Which are appropriate may be dependent on a particular implementation, the skills available to implement it, and the effort you're willing to expend on it. Hence it's necessary to provide full details of what you've done so far...

  • Different LOV behavior between SQL query data model and data template

    I have noticed different behavior when using parameters linked to list of values (LOV) of type menu with the multiple selection option enabled and a SQL query data model vs a data template. Here's the example because that first sentence was probably really confusing.
    SQL Query:
    select
    plmc.MonthCode, plmc.ModalityDim, plmc.ModalityName,plmc.RegionDim
    from
    DataOut.dbo.PatientLabMonthlyCross plmc
    where
    plmc.MonthCode = 200202
    and plmc.RegionDim = 1209
    and 1 =
    case
    when coalesce(:modalityDim,null) is null
    then 1
    else
    case
    when plmc.ModalityDim in (:modalityDim)
    then 1
    else 0
    end
    end
    Putting BI Publisher into debug mode, defining a data model of type SQL Query, defining a parameter called :modalityDim linked to a LOV that allows multiple selections, and selecting a couple of values from the LOV the output of the prepared statement is:
    [081607_122647956][][STATEMENT] Sql Query : select
    plmc.MonthCode,
    plmc.ModalityDim,
    plmc.ModalityName,
    plmc.RegionDim
    from
    DataOut.dbo.PatientLabMonthlyCross plmc
    where
    plmc.MonthCode = 200202
    and plmc.RegionDim = 1209
    and 1 =
    case
    when coalesce(?,?,null) is null
    then 1
    else
    case
    when plmc.ModalityDim in (?,?)
    then 1
    else 0
    end
    end
    [081607_122647956][][STATEMENT] 1:6
    [081607_122647956][][STATEMENT] 2:7
    [081607_122647956][][STATEMENT] 3:6

    [081607_122654713][][EVENT] Data Generation Completed...
    [081607_122654713][][EVENT] Total Data Generation Time 7.0 seconds
    Note how the bind variable :modalityDim was changed into two parameters in the prepared statement.
    When I use this same SQL Query in a data template the output is:
    [081607_012113018][][STATEMENT] Sql Query : select
    plmc.MonthCode,
    plmc.ModalityDim,
    plmc.ModalityName,
    plmc.RegionDim
    from
    DataOut.dbo.PatientLabMonthlyCross plmc
    where
    plmc.MonthCode = 200202
    and plmc.RegionDim = 1209
    and 1 =
    case
    when coalesce(?,null) is null
    then 1
    else
    case
    when plmc.ModalityDim in (?)
    then 1
    else 0
    end
    end
    [081607_012113018][][STATEMENT] 1:'6','7'
    [081607_012113018][][STATEMENT] 2:'6','7'
    [081607_012113574][][EXCEPTION] java.sql.SQLException: Syntax error converting the nvarchar value ''6','7'' to a column of data type int.
    Note the exception because it is trying to convert the multiple parameter values.
    Am I doing something completely wrong here? I really need to use a data template because I will need to link a couple of queries together from different database vendors.
    -mark

    This is for 10.1.3.4 - because in 11g every SQL query is automatially part of a data model.
    In 10g SQL query is for simple unrelated SQL queries.
    If you need to use advance features such as:
    a) multiple SQL queries that are joined in master-detail relation ships
    b) before/after report triggers
    Then you will need to use the data template, which is an XML description
    of the queries, links, and PL/SQL calls.
    hope that helps,
    Klaus

  • Retreving Hexadecimal Values from a table using SQL query.

    Hi,
    I'm looking for a query to retreive Hexadecimal values contained in a column using SQL query.
    The column contains the values of all types, alphanumeric, numeric and hexadecimal.
    I need to retreive only hexadecimal values.
    any help to me in this regard will be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Presumably, you can be sure that any valid hex value is indeed MEANT to BE a hex value. For example the value 'ACE' is meant to be a hexadecimal value and not the word.
