Outer Join or Combine Requests
I have tables A (Account), B (Measures), and C (Time). I want all values from table A to appear in queries regardless of data or lack of in the other tables. I have created a left out join from A to B and this works fine...until I need to query on year from table C. (B and C have an inner join.) Querying on year form table C is mandatory, but when I do so I don't get any Account data. I can get this to work in SQL if I nest a select statement joining B and C (and then A left outer joined to nested B/C select statement)...but i can't find a way to do this in Answers. The SQL on the advanced tab is not at this level. Any suggestions? Is there a way to do this in Answers at the report level—maybe by combining requests?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!!
Are you looking for a continues time line?

[8i] Need help with full outer join combined with a cross-join....
I can't figure out how to combine a full outer join with another type of join ... is this possible?
Here's some create table and insert statements for some basic sample data:
CREATE TABLE my_tab1
( record_id NUMBER NOT NULL
, workstation VARCHAR2(4)
, my_value NUMBER
CONSTRAINT my_tab1_pk PRIMARY KEY (record_id)
INSERT INTO my_tab1
VALUES(1,'ABCD',10);
INSERT INTO my_tab1
VALUES(2,'ABCD',15);
INSERT INTO my_tab1
VALUES(3,'ABCD',5);
INSERT INTO my_tab1
VALUES(4,'A123',5);
INSERT INTO my_tab1
VALUES(5,'A123',10);
INSERT INTO my_tab1
VALUES(6,'A123',20);
INSERT INTO my_tab1
VALUES(7,'????',5);
CREATE TABLE my_tab2
( workstation VARCHAR2(4)
, wkstn_name VARCHAR2(20)
CONSTRAINT my_tab2_pk PRIMARY KEY (workstation)
INSERT INTO my_tab2
VALUES('ABCD','WKSTN 1');
INSERT INTO my_tab2
VALUES('A123','WKSTN 2');
INSERT INTO my_tab2
VALUES('B456','WKSTN 3');
CREATE TABLE my_tab3
( my_nbr1 NUMBER
, my_nbr2 NUMBER
INSERT INTO my_tab3
VALUES(1,2);
INSERT INTO my_tab3
VALUES(2,3);
INSERT INTO my_tab3
VALUES(3,4);And, the results I want to get:
workstation sum(my_value) wkstn_name my_nbr1 my_nbr2
ABCD 30 WKSTN 1 1 2
ABCD 30 WKSTN 1 2 3
ABCD 30 WKSTN 1 3 4
A123 35 WKSTN 2 1 2
A123 35 WKSTN 2 2 3
A123 35 WKSTN 2 3 4
B456 0 WKSTN 3 1 2
B456 0 WKSTN 3 2 3
B456 0 WKSTN 3 3 4
???? 5 NULL 1 2
???? 5 NULL 2 3
???? 5 NULL 3 4I've tried a number of different things, googled my problem, and no luck yet...
SELECT t1.workstation
, SUM(t1.my_value)
, t2.wkstn_name
, t3.my_nbr1
, t3.my_nbr2
FROM my_tab1 t1
, my_tab2 t2
, my_tab3 t3
...So, what I want is a full outer join of t1 and t2 on workstation, and a cross-join of that with t3. I'm wondering if I can't find any examples of this online because it's not possible....
Note: I'm stuck dealing with Oracle 8i
Thanks!!Hi,
The query I posted yesterday is a little more complicated than it needs to be.
Since my_tab2.workstation is unique, there's no reason to do a separate sub-query like mt1; we can join my_tab1 to my_tab2 and get the SUM all in one sub-query.
SELECT foj.workstation
, foj.sum_my_value
, foj.wkstn_name
, mt3.my_nbr1
, mt3.my_nbr2
FROM ( -- Begin in-line view foj for full outer join
SELECT mt1.workstation
, SUM (mt1.my_value) AS sum_my_value
, mt2.wkstn_name
FROM my_tab1 mt1
, my_tab2 mt2
WHERE mt1.workstation = mt2.workstation (+)
GROUP BY mt1.workstation
, mt2.wkstn_name
UNION ALL
SELECT workstation
, 0 AS sum_my_value
, wkstn_name
FROM my_tab2
WHERE workstation NOT IN ( -- Begin NOT IN sub-query
SELECT workstation
FROM my_tab1
WHERE workstation IS NOT NULL
) -- End NOT IN sub-query
) foj -- End in-line view foj for full outer join
, my_tab3 mt3
ORDER BY foj.wkstn_name
, foj.workstation
, mt3.my_nbr1
, mt3.my_nbr2
;Thanks for posting the CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, as well as the very clear desired results!

The tricky part is how and when to get SUM (my_value). You might approach this by figuring out exactly what my_tab3 has to be cross-joined to; that is, exactly what should the result set of the full outer join between my_tab1 and my_tab2 look like. To do that, take your desired results, remove the columns that do not come from the full outer join, and remove the duplicate rows. You'll get:
workstation sum(my_value) wkstn_name
ABCD 30 WKSTN 1
A123 35 WKSTN 2
B456 0 WKSTN 3
???? 5 NULL So the core of the problem is how to get these results from my_tab1 and my_tab2, which is done in sub-query foj above.
I tried to use self-documenting names in my code. I hope you can understand it.
I could spend hours explaining different parts of this query in more detail, but I'm sure I'd waste some of that time explaining things you already understand. If you want an explanation of somthing(s) specific, let me know. -
Invalid combinations of joins involving outer joins
Hi all, I have the following problem
Scenario: I created 6 custom folders:
Tasks (with measures)
Type
Criticity
Status
Owners
Assignees
The first folder is used to retrieve how many tasks (COUNT(tasks)) have a particular type or status or a combination between them, and the others 5 are dimensions.
I create 6 joins starting always from the dimensions in this way (radio buttons):
Detail item values always exist in master folder (Typical)
Outer join on detail
where the master is always a dimension and the detail is always the custom folder with the measures.
I put the outer join on the custom folder with the measures because I want to show '0' in case I don't have any record on this folder for a specific attribute on a dimension (the join fails).
I saw that if I put the outer join on the master (dimensions), when the join fails I don't see at all the information regarding that particular dimension.
For example
I select 2 folder: Tasks and Assignee
join: Tasks.task_id (+) = Assignee.task_id
Result:
TASK ASSIGNEE
10 Mr. A
20 Mr. B
30 Mr. C
0 Mr. D
Just to make a test, If I change the join on Administrator putting :
Detail item values might not exist in master folder
Outer join on master
...the result is this
TASK ASSIGNEE
10 Mr. A
20 Mr. B
30 Mr. C
...I don't see the last record.
The customer asked to see always the record with task =0 (if exists), so I joined all the custom folders as I expalned above, but when I try to link (on Discoverer Plus) more than two tasks I have the following error:
Invalid combinations of joins involving outer joins
So, my question is this: how can I avoid this error ? Does it exist any trick or another way to link the custom folders (showing always the records with '0' when the join doesn't retrieve nothing ) ?
Thanks in advance
AlexWell I will take a stab at answering this. The problem is not knowing what is in your custom folders. Also not knowing the specifics on your Discoverer Join definitions. On something like this you may be better going to Oracle support, since they can start a Web Conference and see exactly what you see, and can check out the various possibilities. All we here can do is make guesses, and the guesses could be wrong.
You do have to be careful in your join definitions in Discoverer. You have to pick the correct table as the Master table, and the correct table as the Detail table. Mess that up and you can mess yourself up. So my first though is check your join definition. Sounds like you want assigned to be the master table. Then tasks would be the detail table.
Then you want to pick the option that detail items might not exist in master. Which it looks like you have done.
Then for the other options, Oracle, in my mind, does the opposite of what I would think to pick. If you pick OUTER JOIN ON DETAIL, that will include the Master items with no detail items. So that is what you need to pick.
Looks like you did the OUTER JOIN ON MASTER, which means will include detail items with no master. Since you had a master with no detail, it will not show, and that is why the Mr. D does not show.
I always have to do the help on this because it is opposite of what I would expect - my mind thinks outer join on master should include all masters. Nope, it has to be the outer join on detail to do that.
The master with no detail will probably show a NULL value in the column for the detail, instead of 0. You could convert the null value to display as a 0.
Hope this helps a bit. Just remember that I am guessing/speculating on a possible cause.

Query Question: Combine outer join with max() statement
Hi Folks,
I have been banging my head on this for a while now and am asking from some advice.
I have a Project Completion Report that pulls information from a number of tables:
1) Program (PK: ID)
2) Project (PK: ID, FK: Program_ID constrained to Program.ID)
3) Project_Monthly (PK: ID, FK: Project_ID constrained to Project.ID)
4) Status_Report (PK: ID, FK: Project_ID constrained to Project.ID)
The Status_Report table has a Record_Date field and holds a BLOB with the status reports for all the projects. In the best of all possible worlds, every project would have a status report, but, obviously, some have no status reports.
I have been asked to extend the Project Completion Report. It currently shows:
1) Program Number (Program.Program_Number)
2) Program Name (Program.Program_Name)
3) Project (Project.Project_Name)
4) Projected Completion Date (Project_Monthly.Current_Date_Production)
We would like to add the latest status report. So I started with something that works in another report, which is to get the ID from the Status_Report table for the record that has the maximum date value in the Record_date that matches the Project in the current Program. But this other query is looking at one program at a time. The Project Completion Report is showing all programs with projects that complete within a certain time frame.
The requirement is to show all projects that will complete within a time frame and to display the ID of the most recent status report (I use javascript to turn this into a downloadable link). However, whenever I try something like:
AND Status_Report.Record_Date =
(select MAX(Status_Report.record_date) from Status_Report
where Status_Report.ID = Project.ID)I loose all projects that have no status reports associated with them.
How can I keep all the projects that fulfill the criteria of completing within a specified time frame and add the ID, if it exists, of the most recent status report?
I thank you for your time and assistance. Please let me know how I can clarify the problem more clearly.
Yours,
PetieI had thought I finally solved it. Alas, it wasn't yet to be.
I created a view with the following select statement:
select p.program_number, p.program_name,
pj.id as pj_id, pj.project_name, pjm.in_prod_current, pjm.record_date as pjm_record_date,
prs.id as prs_ID, prs.record_date as prs_record_date
from program p, project pj, project_monthly pjm,
project_status_report prs
where p.id = pj.program_id
and pj.id = pjm.project_id
and pj.id = prs.project_id (+);Then, I selected from the view and the project_status_report table, performed an outer join on those (filtered to only the current month's project records) and filtered by the maximum date for each project.
Here is the resulting query:
select pc.program_number, pc.pj_id, pc.project_name, pc.in_prod_current,
pc.pjm_record_date, pc.prs_id
from project_completion pc,
project_status_report prs
where trunc(pjm_record_date, 'mon') = trunc(sysdate,'mon')
and prs.id = pc.prs_id (+)
and pc.prs_record_date =
(select max(mprs.record_date)
from project_status_report mprs
where mprs.project_id = pc.pj_id)However, I am still not getting the projects for which there are no status reports.
Verflixt und zugenaeht!
It seems that I want to compare based upon the record_date of the status report, but get the ID back. Can I use DECODE for that? Can I get the MAX(prs.record_date), but return only the prs.ID? Because if I include the ID in the select statement, I get too many matches, but if I don't then I don't have the ID, which is needed.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Petie

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.
AnnFirst 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.

Internal Assertion Error while using outer join
Hi-
Has anyone experienced this error before: State: HY000. Code: 397397248. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 46036] Internal Assertion: Condition !pConjunct->IsAndCond(), file server/Query/Optimizer/Request/Src/SQORToCNF.cpp, line 46. (HY000)
It happened after I changed the join in logical layer from inner join into left outer join from Fact Tab1 to Fact Tab2, This needs to be changed for cases:
Fact Tab1 contains:
Period|Currency|FX Rate
Mar-09|USD|1
Apr-09|USD|1.1
Fact Tab2 contains:
Period|Currency|Product|Profit
Mar-09|USD|Metal Abs|1000
Mar-09|USD|Grey Wood|2000
Expected Result:
Period|Currency|Product|Profit|FX Rate
Mar-09|USD|Metal Abs|1000|1
Mar-09|USD|Grey Wood|2000|1
Apr-09|USD|(NULL)|(NULL)|1.1
But, it shows the error as above (have changed the SERVER_THREAD_STACK_SIZE to 512 KB too but no luck, any idea?
Thanks,
WillHey Will,
Recently I've seen OBIEE generate some bad queries on an Oracle Database. I had setup a few time series measures and when I added more than three into a report, I got a table not found error. It turned out that it was a combination of the query getting very complex and the way it was using ANSI SQL Left Outer Join operator. I'm wondering if your situation is similar.
Can you try the following?
1. Log into the RPD and for your user, set the logging level to 7 (Manage->Security then find your user).
2. Clear all the caches (BI Server=Manage->Cache delete them all, Presentation Server=Settings->Manage Sessions then close all cursors)
3. Run the report for a date range that works fine
4. Run the report for a date range that causes the error.
5. Look at the physical SQL generated in the log files (Settings->Manage Sessions)
Compare the two queries and see if anything stands out. In fact try to execute both in SQL Developer or Toad and see if you get any errors. If you can, post the physical SQL and I might be able to notice something.
Just to confirm, you're using OCI to connect to an Oracle source right?
In my situation, I fixed it by disabling the LEFT OUTER JOIN syntax on the database. We might be able to get you to do something similar to fix your problem.
Thanks!

Custom report outer-join display problem
I have written a custom report for Grid that produces info on database options, combined with info on the hardware of the servers where the databases reside. It is a customer requirement that all output be displayed as one huge table, with duplicate cells where logic dictates... so I've used a couple of nested queries + outer joins.
My SQL query provides the correct data, however Grid appears to be acting clever, and instead of displaying one big table with duplicate values where required, it is splitting the output into a series of tables.
It might look neater, but it's not what I've been asked to provide.
Is there anything I can do to prevent this, and force Grid to display the info as one table?
Thanks,
ChrisHello Chris,
did you already try to create a View based on your query and use this view in a Report Element?

Rob

Not using Index when SDO_RELATE in Spatial Query is used in LEFT OUTER JOIN
I want to know for every City (Point geometry) in which Municipality (Polygon geometry) it is.
Some cities will not be covered by any municipality (as there is no data for it), so its municipality name should be blank in the result
We have 4942 cities (point geometries)
and 500 municipalities (polygon geometry)
SELECT T1.NAME as City, T2.NAME as Municipality
FROM CITY T1
LEFT OUTER JOIN MUNICIPALITY T2 ON SDO_RELATE(T1.GEOM, T2.GEOM, 'MASK=ANYINTERACT') = 'TRUE'The explain plan for this query is:
SELECT STATEMENT
FILTER
Filter Predicates
MDSYS.SDO_RTREE_RELATE(T1.GEOM, T2.GEOM, 'mask=ANYINTERACT querytype=window ') = 'TRUE'
MERGE JOIN
TABLE ACCESS CITY FULL 11
BUFFER SORT 100605
TABLE ACCESS MUNICIPALITY FULL 20So the cost is in the BUFFER (whatever that is), it takes +2000 seconds to run this, it is not using the spatial index.
And we are not getting all rows, but only the ones interacting with a municipality, e.g. 2436 rows.
But I want all rows, including the ones not interacting with any Municipality.
When we want only those cities that actually are in a municipality, I use a different query and it will use the index.
SELECT T1.NAME as City, T2.NAME as Municipality
FROM CITY T1, MUNICIPALITY T2
WHERE SDO_RELATE(T1.GEOM, T2.GEOM, 'MASK=ANYINTERACT') = 'TRUE'I get (only) 2436 rows (as expected) in 5 seconds (it is fast) and the explain plan shows it is using the spatial index.
But in this case, I am not getting any cities not inside any municipality (of course)
SELECT STATEMENT
NESTED LOOPS
TABLE ACCESS MUNICIPALITY FULL 22
TABLE ACCESS CITY BY INDEX ROWID 22
DOMAIN INDEX CITY_SDX 0
Access Predicates
MDSYS.SDO_RTREE_RELATE(T1.GEOM, T2.GEOM, 'mask=ANYINTERACT querytype=window ') = 'TRUE'I always thought a LEFT OUTER JOIN would return all rows from the Table, whatever happens in the next,
but it seems the query has been rewritten so that it is now using a Filter Predicate in the end, which filters those geometries having no interaction.
As an example I also do thing alphanumerically, I do get 4942 rows, including the ones which have no Municipality name.
In this case the names must match, so its only for testing if the LEFT OUTER JOIN returns stuff correctly, which it does in this case.
SELECT T1.NAME as City, T2.NAME as Municipality
FROM CITY T1
LEFT OUTER JOIN MUNICIPALITY T2 ON T1.NAME = T2.NAMEIs this an Oracle Spatial bug, e.g. not return 4942 rows, but only 2436 rows on the first query?
Note all tests performed on Oracle 11g R2 (11.2.0.1.0)Patrick,
Even so, your geoms in the relate were the wrong way around.
Also, I don't recall you saying (or showing) that you wanted the municipality geometry returned. Still,
no matter, easy to do.
Here are some additional suggestions. I don't have your data so I have had to use some of my own.

Outer Join with Where Clause in LTS
HI all,
I have a requirement like this in ANSI SQL:
select p1.product_id, p1.product_name, p2.product_group
from product p1 left outer join product_group p2 on p1.product_id = p2.product_id
and p2.product_group = 'NEW'
In Regular SQL:
select p1.product_id, p1.product_name, p2.product_group
from product p1, product_group p2
WHERE p1.product_id *= p2.product_id and p2.product_group = 'NEW'
In OBIEE, I am using a left outer join between these two in Logical table Source, and also, Gave
p2.product_group = 'NEW' in WHERE clause of LTS.
This doesn't seem to solve purpose.
Do you have any idea how to convert WHERE clause in physical query that OBIEE is generating to something like
product p1 left outer join product_group p2 on p1.product_id = p2.product_id AND p2.product_group = 'NEW'
I am using Version 10.1.3.4.1
Creating an Opaque view would be my last option though.Hello
I have read your post and the responses as well. and I understand that you have issues with the Outer Join with where Clause in LTS.
Try this solution which worked for me (using your example ) -
1. In the Physical Layer created a Complex join between PRODUCT and PRODUCT_GROUP tables and use this join relationship :
PRODUCT.PROD_ID = PRODUCT_GROUP.PROD_ID AND PRODUCT_GROUP.GROUP_NAME = 'MECHANICAL'
2. In the General Tab of PRODUCT table LTS add PRODUCT_GROUP table and select Join Type as Left Outer Join.
3. Check Consistency and make sure there are no errors .
when you run a request you should see the following query generated -
select distinct T26908.PROD_ID as c1,
T26908.PROD_NAME as c2,
T26912.GROUP_NAME as c3
from
PRODUCT T26908 left outer join PRODUCT_GROUP T26912 On T26908.PROD_ID = T26912.PROD_ID and T26912.GROUP_NAME = 'MECHANICAL'
order by c1, c2, c3
Hope this works for you. If it does please mark this response as 'Correct' .
Good Luck. -
Outer join query for SQL server from Oracle
Hi All,
My question is regarding making queries from Oracle to SQL Server database thorugh DBLink.
In my oracle database I have a DBLink emp.world for SQL Server database.
I need to query SQL Server data from oracle (so that this query can be combined with other oracle tables).
Query is given below:
SELECT
a."EmpID" as "Employee ID",
a."EmpStatus" "Employee Status"
b."EmpSub" as "Employee Subjects"
FROM
[email protected] a
left outer join [email protected] b on a."EmpID" = b."suEmpID"
ORDER BY a."EmpID";My problem is when I run the same query from oracle, it does not show the EmpID that does not exist in Subjects table, but when run from actual SQL Server database, it shows all the records.
Samples are given below:
Run from Oracle
Employee ID Employee Status Employee Subjects
101 Active Maths
102 Active Maths
102 Active Physics
104 Inactive Chemistry
Run form SQL Server
Employee ID Employee Status Employee Subjects
101 Active Maths
102 Active Maths
102 Active Physics
103 Active NULL
104 Inactive ChemistryI am not sure why in oracle outer join for SQL server tables is not working. What is the right way for outer join in this case.
I am using oracle database 10gR2 and SQL Server 2005.
Please Help.
Thanks.SELECT
a."EmpID" as "Employee ID",
a."EmpStatus" "Employee Status"
b."EmpSub" as "Employee Subjects"
FROM
[email protected] a
left outer join [email protected] b on a."EmpID" = b."suEmpID"
ORDER BY a."EmpID";
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/queries006.htm#sthref3175
From your description, it appears you may need a right outer join. You want to get back all the rows from 'B', not from 'A'. Try a right join and let us know. -
SQL Select using LEFT OUTER JOIN returning field values when I expect NULL
I am having problems with this select statement:
SELECT distinct pl.id, th.trip, pc.country, pph.location
FROM people_list pl, people_travelhistory th, people_country pc
LEFT OUTER JOIN people_info pph on pph.id=pl.id and pph.country=pc.country
where people_list.active='Y' and people_list.id=th.id and th.trip = pc.trip;
The criteria is that the pph table may not have no record for that id and country.
The problem is that the pph.location field is returned with data even when no matching record for that id or country exists.
If the record doesn't exist in the pph table, I want pph.location = NULL
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in Advance!
DeveloperHi, You can try this :
SELECT distinct pl.id, th.trip, pc.country, pph.location
FROM people_list pl, people_travelhistory th, people_country pc
left outer join people_info pph on pph.id = pl.id
left outer join people_country pc on pc.country = pph.country
left outer join people_travelhistory th on th.id = pl.id
where pl.active='Y' and th.trip = pc.trip;
Knowing that you requesting people active that have travelled to their own country.

Query Of Queries : Error When Trying To Fake Left Outer Join
Hi there
I am trying to replicate a left outer join, combining two query of queries using a method I located here
However, I keep getting an error message..
Here is the code I am using....
<cfquery dbtype="query" name="qry">
SELECT *
FROM returnQry, returnQry2
WHERE returnQry.mediumImage = returnQry2.mediumImage
ORDER BY returnQry.name
</cfquery>
<cfquery name="returnQry3" dbtype="#application.mx#">
SELECT *
FROM trackmeanings AS t
</cfquery>
<cfquery dbtype="query" name="endQry">
SELECT name,nameRcd,mediumImage, COUNT(sMessage) AS comments
FROM qry, returnQry3
WHERE qry.name = returnQry3.sNameTrack
UNION
SELECT name,nameRcd,mediumImage, COUNT(sMessage) AS comments
FROM qry, returnQry3
WHERE #qry.name# NOT IN (#QuotedValueList(returnQry3.sNameTrack)#)
GROUP BY name,nameRcd,mediumImage
</cfquery>
When I try to use the query output in a page, i get the error message "Incorrect conditional expression, Expected one of [like|null|between|in|comparison] condition"
Would anyone have any ideas?
Many thanksActually , spoke a little too soon, my query now seems to be outputting duplicates when the value is found on both sides of the union, my group by clause doesnt seem to be eliminating them like it usually does.
My SELECT code now reads
<cfquery dbtype="query" name="endQry">
SELECT name,nameRcd,mediumImage, COUNT(sMessage) AS comments
FROM qry, returnQry3
WHERE qry.name = returnQry3.sNameTrack
GROUP BY name,nameRcd,mediumImage
UNION
SELECT name,nameRcd,mediumImage, 0 AS comments
FROM qry
WHERE qry.name NOT IN (<cfqueryparam
value="#returnQry3.sNameTrack#"
cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar"
list="yes"
/>)
GROUP BY name,nameRcd,mediumImage
ORDER BY name DESC
</cfquery>
and my ouput...is producing duplicates
<cfoutput query="rc.qryTopTracks" group="name">
#rc.qryTopTracks.name#
</cfoutput>
Would you have any idea of how to eliminate them here? Thanks -
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 -

When I run the above query I get a problem.
I am expecting to see is a merge of all the attribute_id's and their values.
The query does not appear to be merging the data as intended.
My understanding of the full outer join is that its a combination of left and outer joins,
so the above query is intended to return with the total number of unique attributes
and their appropriate values
a) I have a bug in the Sql
b) This is an oracle bug
c) My understanding is incorrect
Please Help

Keith Jamieson (fixed insert statements for gtt )How do you expect a full outer join operation when you have given --
where c.partner_id=710326;According to your supplied data - i don't think your query can perform that full outer join operation because of that filtration. Just remove that last condition and checked it. You will get your desired result - hopefully.
"It's like you want to view the things by closing down your both eyes". Do you think it will pay?

Now come to required output; which is showing that these plus signed packets (whose master PNO is that) are not as per tab40 vs tab41 something like full outer join between tab40 and tab41. Example :
+ 1112710 is associated with 1112510 in tab40, while in tab41 it is associated with 2996001; so it is difference.
+ 1117001 is associated with 1117014 in tab40, while it is not in tab41.
vice versa;
+ 3332710 is associated with 2996001 in tab41, while it is not in tab40.
I mean, if only plus marked row's PNO's mater packet number is not equal to master PNO(previous non plus marked BNO) in both the table, it should be part of the select query please. Generally this happens, when our packing department gets late delivery of prior master packet, so they just send the small packet with immediate available one (non plus) packet.
Kindly let me; i am clear in my request or i should elaborate more. This may be more complex, because may be bad table/data design, but i need the output by select query please help me.
Regards.
Edited by: user12050217 on Jan 3, 2012 3:57 AMYes, you have perfectly understood my question... just i added lineno > 1
SELECT bno,
pno,
weight,
lineno
FROM ( SELECT tab40.*, lag (bno) OVER (ORDER BY pno) prev_bno
FROM tab40
ORDER BY pno)
WHERE bno = '+' OR prev_bno = '+' and lineno > 1
ORDER BY lineno
and it worked, because there are no chances that plus marked row will be having lineno <=1
