Select with aggregate function MAX

Hi,
Can I write a query like:
select field1 field2 MAX( field3 )
from z_table
into table itab
for all entries in itab2
where field1 = itab2-field1
and field2 = itab2-field2.
In the above case all the 3 fields are key fields.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I did try it.. but got an error like: "The field "z_table~field2" from the select list is missing in the GROUP BY clause" but my aggregate funtion is used only for the field3..... So, I wanted to know if anybody has come across such a query....
Thanks,

Select with aggregate functions? i.e. select max(code)...

The code field on my user table is too small for the key field I want to use but it is still necessary I assume I must generate my own unique value.
The DBDataSource.Query() method doesn't seem appropriate so should I create a SAPbobsCOM.Recordset and use the DoQuery method to select the maximum value currently in the user table?
I found some mentions of requiring such a select statement on this board but no examples of the actual code. I'll go ahead and try the DoQuery method unless I hear of something more appropriate.
Also, I saw a comment that a future release of SAP would have a larger code field for user tables but obviously that didn't happen in 6.7.
Thanks for any comments.

Here's what I came up with...
If you are happy with 99,999,999 records instead of 4,294,967,295 then I guess you can forego the hexadecimal bit. I'd welcome any alternatives if someone has one.
With the hex:
private string GetNextKey(string strTable)
    SAPbobsCOM.Recordset rs =
        (SAPbobsCOM.Recordset)oCompany.GetBusinessObject(BoObjectTypes.BoRecordset);
    rs.DoQuery("select isnull(max(code),'00000000') from [" + strTable + "]");
    string strCode = (string)rs.Fields.Item(0).Value;
    int intKey = Convert.ToInt32(strCode,16) + 1;
    return intKey.ToString("X8");
No Hex:
private string GetNextKey(string strTable)
    SAPbobsCOM.Recordset rs =
      (SAPbobsCOM.Recordset)oCompany.GetBusinessObject(BoObjectTypes.BoRecordset);
    rs.DoQuery("select isnull(max(code),'00000000') from [" + strTable + "]");
    string strCode = (string)rs.Fields.Item(0).Value;

Help with aggregate function max query

I have a large database which stores daily oil life, odo readings from thousands of vehicles being tested but only once a month.
I am trying to grab data from one month where only the EOL_READ = 0 and put all of those values into the previous month's query where EOL_READ = anything.
Here is the original query which grabs everything
(select distinct vdh.STID, vdh.CASE_SAK,
max(to_number(decode(COMMAND_ID,'EOL_READ',COMMAND_RESULT,-100000))) EOL_READ,
max(to_number(decode(COMMAND_ID,'ODO_READ',COMMAND_RESULT,-100000))) ODO_READ,
max(to_number(decode(COMMAND_ID,'OIL_LIFE_PREDICTION',COMMAND_RESULT,-100000))) OIL_LIFE_PREDICTION
from veh_diag_history vdh, c2pt_data_history cdh
where vdh.veh_diag_history_sak = cdh.veh_diag_history_sak
and cdh.COMMAND_ID in ('EOL_READ','ODO_READ','OIL_LIFE_PREDICTION')
and vdh.LOGICAL_TRIGGER_SAK = 3
and cdh.CREATED_TIMESTAMP =vdh.CREATED_TIMESTAMP
and cdh.CREATED_TIMESTAMP >= to_date('03/01/2007 12:00:00 AM','mm/dd/yyyy HH:MI:SS AM')
and cdh.CREATED_TIMESTAMP < to_date('04/01/2007 12:00:00 AM','mm/dd/yyyy HH:MI:SS AM')
group by vdh.STID, vdh.case_sak
having count(distinct command_id) = 3
order by OIL_LIFE_PREDICTION)
which gives 5 columns:
STID, CASE_SAK, EOL_READ, ODO_READ, and OIL_LIFE_PREDICTION
and gives me about 80000 rows returned for the above query
I only want one reading per month, but sometimes I get two.
STID is the unique identifier for a vehicle.
I tried this query:
I tried this query which nests one request within the other and SQL times out every time:
select distinct vdh.STID, vdh.CASE_SAK,

and (max(to_number(decode(COMMAND_ID,'EOL_READ',COMMAND_RESULT,-100000)))) = 0)
order by OIL_LIFE_PREDICTION
so in summary I am trying to select values from the previous month only from those stids where this month's value for EOL_READ = 0
Any ideas.....please help.

You can use row_number() within each stid and each month to determine the first read of each month. Then you can use lag() to get the previous month's reading of the current month's reading is zero.
with all_data as (
select stid,
       case_sak,
       eol_read,
       timestamp,
       row_number() over (partition by stid, trunc(timestamp,'mm') order by timestamp) AS rn
from veh_diag_history
select stid,
       case_sak,
       case
         when eol_read = 0
           then lag(eol_read) over (partition by stid order by timestamp)
         else eol_read
       end as eol_read
from all_data
where rn = 1;

Suggest me less expensive SELECT for aggregate function.

Hi,
I hv a SELECT statement with AGGREGATE function, but, as aggregates are expensive, so, want to replace it with less expensive SELECT statement, so, pls. let me know it, Wht can i use instaed, code is as below,
CLEAR my_amount.
SELECT SUM( wrbtr ) into my_amount from BSID
                          WHERE bukrs = p_bukrs
                          and   kunnr = p_konto
                          and   budat <= sy-datum.
so, pls. let me know alternative(replace) SELECT which is less expensive performence wise
thank you

I don't think using SUM is a bad thing to do if you're using an index. The only replacement would be to select all the data into an itab and add it up yourself and I don't think that doing this would be any quicker - it might even be slower because you would be bringing back more records rather than restricting the number of records brought back at database level which is what the SUM would do. The thing I'd be concerned about here is that you're not taking acount of the SHKZG debit / credit flag. But if all the lines you're dealing are credits or all are debits that won't matter to you.

Problem with aggregate function

Hello,
the prerequisite is to have a table with the following columns (#id, a_date).
Now the task is to select the maximum date from a range of rows of this table
select max(t.a_date)
from the_table t
where <condition to get only some rows of the_table>
and to get the id of the record which holds the maximum date. That's where the problem is located. It should look like the following code (yes, I know this cannot work because grouping by the id makes the aggregate senseless) just to make clear what I want to do.
select max(t.a_date), t.id
from the_table t
where <condition to get only some rows of the_table>
group by t.id
Does anybody have any idea how to solve the problem?
With regards,
Cosima

Hi all,
as the condition in the where-clause is very complex, I decided to use the solution with the FIRST function. After googling and reading a bit, I have just two more questions for my deeper understanding:
1) am I right that both snippets below do exactly the same?
SELECT MAX (t.a_date)
, MAX (t.ID)KEEP (DENSE_RANK FIRST ORDER BY t.a_date DESC)
FROM the_table t
WHERE <condition to get only some rows of the_table>
SELECT MAX (t.a_date)
, MAX (t.ID)KEEP (DENSE_RANK LAST ORDER BY t.a_date ASC)
FROM the_table t
WHERE <condition to get only some rows of the_table>2) can I use als the min function for t.ID as there the aggregate function does not have any effect (but is necessary in order to use KEEP and FIRST or KEEP and LAST)?
With regards,

Select into aggregate function

Hi,
I have the following PL/SQL block that I am testing. The block reads a list of values from a local file and inserts the values into a select statement that uses an aggregate function. Here is my code:
DECLARE
f utl_file.file_type;
n COLa%TYPE; --holds values from the file
v COLb%TYPE; --holds value returned by select statement
BEGIN
f := utl_file.fopen(dir,file.txt,'R');
loop -- loop through file
     utl_file.get_line(f,n);
     if length(n) <> 0 then
          SELECT max(A0.COLa) into v
          FROM (SELECT AOB.COLa, A0.COLb
          FROM TAB1 A0,TAB2 A0B
          WHERE (A0.PK=A0B.PK) and A0B.COLa = n) A0;
          IF SQL%rowcount = 0 THEN
               dbms_output.put_line('no rows);
          else
               dbms_output.put_line(v);
          end if;
     end if;
end loop;
     utl_file.fclose(f);
end;
Here is the error I get:
declare
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01403: no data found
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 98
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 656
ORA-06512: at line 12
I checked the database for the first couple of values in the list and got rows. I also ran a simple PL/sql code to print values in the file successfully. So I dont know why it is returning no data found. From what I understand select into statement using aggregate functions will never raise this exception, so why I am getting this error?
Thanks.

Hi,
Actually, the SELECT ... INTO isn't the problem here.
Look at the error message:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01403: no data found
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 98
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 656
ORA-06512: at line 12The error is ocurring inside utl_file, which is being called at line 12 of your code. (That must be
utl_file.get_line(f,n);)
Utl_file.get_line raises NO_DATA_FOUND when it reaches the end of the file. (If it didn't you'd have an infinite loop, since your code doesn't have any exit strategy.)
You can put the call to get_line in its won BEGIN-EXCEPTION-END block, and trap the NO_DATA_FOUND error.
For example:
end_of_file := 0;
WHILE end_of_file = 0;
loop -- loop through file
    BEGIN
        utl_file.get_line(f,n);
        if length(n) != 0 then          -- Use !=, because you can't post <> on this site
            SELECT max(A0B.COLa)     -- No sub-query needed
            into    v
            FROM    TAB1 A0
            ,         TAB2 A0B
            WHERE   (A0.PK   = A0B.PK)
            and         A0B.COLa = n;
            IF SQL%rowcount = 0 THEN     -- Not needed: SELECT MAX ... without GROUP BY always returns 1 row
                dbms_output.put_line('no rows);
            else
                dbms_output.put_line(v);
            end if;
        end if;
    EXCEPTION
        WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND
        THEN
            end_of_file = 1;
    END;
end loop;Edited by: Frank Kulash on Jul 17, 2009 2:51 PM

Join tables with aggregate function

Hello
I have 4 views that I need to perform aggregate function, count, on and then join them for query output.
Basically each view has a column with a score and a subcontractor name. One subcontractor may have more than one score in each view.
Here is the sql that I'm working with thus far:
select e.sub_name, (count(e.score) - 1), (count(v.score) - 1), (count(s.score) - 1), (count(u.score) - 1)
from speed.v_ratings_ex e, speed.v_ratings_vg v, speed.v_ratings_sat s, speed.v_ratings_uns u
where v.sub_name = e.sub_name
and s.sub_name = e.sub_name
and u.sub_name = e.sub_name
group by e.sub_name
order by e.sub_name asc;
This results in each column returning the same value b/c the join is performed before the aggregate function.
Can anyone offer some help so that I may get the desired results?

You need to use in-line views to perform the aggregates, then join the in-line views.
Something like:
SELECT e.sub_name, e.score - 1 escore, v.score - 1 vscore,
       s.score - 1 sscore, u.score - 1 uscore
FROM (SELECT sub_name,count(*) score
      FROM v_ratings_ex
      GROUP BY sub_name) e,
     (SELECT sub_name,count(*) score
      FROM v_ratings_vg
      GROUP BY sub_name) v,
     (SELECT sub_name,count(*) score
      FROM v_ratings_sat
      GROUP BY sub_name) s,
     (SELECT sub_name,count(*) score
      FROM v_ratings_uns
      GROUP BY sub_name) u
WHERE v.sub_name = e.sub_name and
      s.sub_name = e.sub_name and
      u.sub_name = e.sub_name
ORDER BY e.sub_name asc;TTFn

Aggregate function max

hi evrybdy
can we use MAX aggregate function to pick a field of type char from database table ...if yes thn how ..?

No. Max is only for numbers. ( even it will not work for NUMC type )
OPENSQL statements will not work as ASCII format.

Update of a table from a select query with aggregate functions.

Hello All,
I have problem here:
I have 2 tables A(a1, a2, a3, a4, a4....... ) and B( a1, a2, b1, b2, b3). I need to calculate the avg(a4-a3), Max(a4-a3) and Min(a4-a3) and insert it into table B. If the foreign keys a1, a2 already exist in table B, I need to do an update of the computed values into column b1, b2 and b3 respectively, for a1, a2.
Q1. Is it possible to do this with a single query ? I would prefer not to join A with B because the table A is very large. Also columns b1, b2 and b3 are non-nullable.
Q2. Also if a4 and a3 are timestamps what is the best way to find the average? A difference of timestamps yields INTERVAL DAY TO SECOND over which the avg function doesn't seem to work. The averages, max and min in my case would be less than a day and hence all I need is to get the data in the hh:mm:ss format.
As of now I'm using :
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(ABS(MOD(TRUNC(AVG(extract(hour FROM (last_modified_date - created_date))*3600 +
extract( minute FROM (last_modified_date - created_date))*60 +
extract( second FROM (last_modified_date - created_date)))
),86400)),'sssss'),'hh24":"mi":"ss') AS avg_time,
But this is very long drawn. Something more compact and efficient would be nice.
Thanks in advance for your inputs.

Hi,
Thanks everyone for such fast replies. Malakshinov's example worked fine for me as far as updating the table goes. As for the timestamp computations, I'm posting additional info: Sorry, I don't understand.
If Malakshinov's example worked for updating the table, but you still have problems, does that mean you have to do something else besides update the table? If so, what?
Oracle version : Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0
Here are the table details :
DESC Table A
Name Null Type
ID               NOT NULL NUMBER
A1               NOT NULL VARCHAR2(4)
A2               NOT NULL VARCHAR2(40)
A3               NOT NULL VARCHAR2(40)
CREATED_DATE NOT NULL TIMESTAMP(6)
LAST_MODIFIED_DATE TIMESTAMP(6) DESCribing the tables can help clarify some things, but it's no substitute for posting CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements. With only a description of the table, nobody can re-create the problem or test their ideas. Please post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for both tables as they exist before the MERGE. If table b doen't contain any rows before the MERGE, then just say so, but you still need to post a CREATE TABLE statement for both tables, and INSERT statements for table a.
The objective is to compute the response times : avg (LAST_MODIFIED_DATE - CREATED_DATE), max (LAST_MODIFIED_DATE - CREATED_DATE) and min (LAST_MODIFIED_DATE - CREATED_DATE) grouped by A1 and A2 and store it in table B under AVG_T, MAX_T and MIN_T. Since AVG_T, MAX_T and MIN_T are only used for reporting purposes we have kept it as Varchar (though I think keeping it as timestamp would make more sense). I think a NUMBER would make more sense (the number of minutes, for example), or perhaps an INTERVAL DAY TO SECOND. If you stored a NUMBER, it would be easy to compute averages.
In table B the times are stored in the format : hh:mm:ss. We don't need milliseconds precision. If you don;'t need milliseconds, then you should use DATE instead of TIMESTAMP. The functions for manipulating DATEs are much better.
Hence I was calculating is as follows:
-- Avg Time
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(ABS(MOD(TRUNC(AVG(extract(hour FROM (last_modified_date - created_date))*3600 +
extract( minute FROM (last_modified_date - created_date))*60 +
extract( second FROM (last_modified_date - created_date)))
),86400)),'sssss'),'hh24":"mi":"ss') AS avg_time,
--Max Time
extract (hour FROM MAX(last_modified_date - created_date))||':'||extract (minute FROM MAX(last_modified_date - created_date))||':'||TRUNC(extract (second FROM MAX(last_modified_date - created_date))) AS max_time,
--Min Time
extract (hour FROM MIN(last_modified_date - created_date))||':'||extract (minute FROM MIN(last_modified_date - created_date))||':'||TRUNC(extract (second FROM MIN(last_modified_date - created_date))) AS min_timeIs this something that has to be done before or after the MERGE?
Post the complete statement.
Is this part of a query? Where's the SELECT keyword?
Is this part of a DML operation? Where's the INSERT, or UPDATE, or MERGE keyword?
What are the exact results you want from this? Explain how you get those results.
Is the code above getting the right results? Are you just asking if there's a better way to get the same results?
You have to explain things very carefully. None of the people who want to help you are familiar with your application, or your needs.

How to use analytic function with aggregate function

hello
can we use analytic function and aggrgate function in same qurey? i tried to find any example on Net but not get any example how both of these function works together. Any link or example plz share with me
Edited by: Oracle Studnet on Nov 15, 2009 10:29 PM

Here max (aggregate) and over partition by (analytic) function is in same query. So it means we can use aggregate and analytic function in same query and more than one analytic function in same query also.

Update statement with Aggregate function

WHERE e1.deptno = 10

Thanks,
User

Adding these columns makes no sense, so I'll assume this is just an exercise.
However, storing calculated columns like this is generally not a good idea. If one of the other columns is updated, your calculated column will be out of sync.
One way around this is to create a simple view
SQL> CREATE view EMP_v as
2 select EMPNO
3        ,ENAME
4        ,JOB
5        ,MGR
6        ,HIREDATE

Strange behaviour of result area after select with XML-function

Hello,
i execute following statement
SELECT XMLElement("arow",
XMLElement("bcol", a.b) ,
XMLElement("ccol", a.c) d
) as res FROM a;
and get afterwards a completly grey result area.
SQL Developer says that it used 0.006 seconds and 5 rows are retrieved.
After clicking in the result i see the column header and the rowcount
on the left side, but the rest is grey.
I am using SQL Developer 1.5.4 on Windows XP Professional Service
Pack 3 and Oracle 10.2.0.4.
I also search in Metalink if this behaviour is a bug, but i didn't find anything.
In this forum i found a solution (getclobval). But i can not use this solution
for several reasons.
How to reproduce:
<--start-->
create table a (b number not null primary key, c varchar2(10 char));
insert into a (b, c) values (1, 'a');
insert into a (b, c) values (2, 'b');
insert into a (b, c) values (3, 'c');
insert into a (b, c) values (4, 'd');
insert into a (b, c) values (5, 'e');
commit;
Execute the statement above.
<--stop-->
If you need further information, let me know.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Yours,
Erich

Erich,
It looks like you need to provide more details. I can't replicate this on 155 or the latest 2.1 early adopter, on either a remote 10g database or a local 11g database. It sounds like it may be related to your setup, perhaps a slow network connection? The JDK sounds fine, although I'm testing on 1.6_15 for the 1.5.5 installation. Is it only related to the XML queries - do you see this with other queries?

Answers Reports with Aggregate Function

Hi,
I have a Product Table with columns, CustomerName, ProductID,ProductName,Purchase Date. I am trying to create a report in the flg. format:
CustomerName Customer-Prod Count ProductName Total Prod Count %of Products
Mike 10 CD 2 20%
DVD 1 10%
Computer 6 60%
Laptop 1 10%
Dan 5 Computer 3 60%
DVD 2 40%
Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?
Thanks,
rkingmdu

Thanks, the syntax worked. But I get incorrect results.
Here's what I queried:
"PRODUCTS".CUSTOMERNAME,
COUNT("PRODUCTS"."PRODUCTID" By "PRODUCTS"."CUSTOMERNAME"),
"PRODUCTS".PRODUCTNAME,
COUNT("PRODUCTS"."PRODUCTID" By "PRODUCTS"."PRODUCTID", "PRODUCTS"."CUSTOMERNAME")
The first count returns the correct results but the second count is wrong. The query looks to be ok, I don't know where I am getting it wrong.
Any ideas?
Thanks

My Goal is :

2. IF i enable query rewrite option .. i want to check explain plan ( how optimizer rewrites my query ) ? please proceed to do so
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16638/ex_plan.htm#PFGRF009
3. My only aim is QUERY PERFORMANCE with QUERY REWRITE clause in materialized view.It is an admirable goal.
Best Wishes on your quest for performance improvements.
