Procdure that get query output

Question

hi,
SELECT owning_organization_id,
COUNT(repair_number) AS repairNumber
FROM csd_repairs
WHERE creation_date > to_date(:1)
AND owning_organization_id IS NOT NULL
AND status = 'O'
GROUP BY owning_organization_id;
i want to just get the output of the above query .this should be done with PL/SQL procedure or function where :repairDate is parameter

Answer 1

CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE GETROCOUNTBYORGID
IS
TYPE repair_record is RECORD(owning_organization_id NUMBER,REPAIR_NUMBER VARCHAR2(30));
function getROCountbyorgId(repairDate IN Date) RETURN repair_record;
END GETROCOUNTBYORGID;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY GETROCOUNTBYORGID
AS
  function getROCountbyorgId(repairDate IN Date) return repair_record is
  owningorgid number(30);
  repairnumber VARCHAR2(20);
    begin
           SELECT NVL(to_char(owning_organization_id),'Not Available') as organizationId,
               COUNT(repair_number) as repairNumber into owningorgid,repairnumber
           FROM csd_repairs
          WHERE creation_date > to_date(repairDate)
          AND status          = 'O'
          GROUP BY owning_organization_id;
  return repair_record;
  END getROCountbyorgId;
END GETROCOUNTBYORGID;now....you cannot return repair_record as this is a type and not a variable.
and you should not define owningorgid and repairnumber variables in the function but a v_repair_record variable of the type repair_record...
so your code should look like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY GETROCOUNTBYORGID
AS
  function getROCountbyorgId(repairDate IN Date) return repair_record
  is
     v_reapir_record repair_record;
    begin
           SELECT NVL(to_char(owning_organization_id),'Not Available') as organizationId,
               COUNT(repair_number) as repairNumber
                into v_repair_record
           FROM csd_repairs
          WHERE creation_date > to_date(repairDate)
          AND status          = 'O'
          GROUP BY owning_organization_id;
  return v_repair_record;
  END getROCountbyorgId;
END GETROCOUNTBYORGID;furthermore...it is good practice to have naming conventions which identifies your types as types.
Something like
TYPE repair_record_type is RECORD(owning_organization_id NUMBER,REPAIR_NUMBER VARCHAR2(30));if you afterwards try to fill values into this type or if you want to return the type...you at least have the drawback to write more just because you are using a type rather than a variable
