Single Row Subquery Howto ?

In some situation i need to design a query witch give's me the possibility to bring subvalues in a single row. And this not as an object.
Example :
The output should by.
NAME OWNS_PROJECT
Clac Oracle migration, New Department Server,Creation financing
The output must be in a single Row.
The Name comes from one table and the OWNS_PROJECTS list is in a other table.
I found a soloution witch is able to give me the user and this information in the SQL*Plus program. But the OWNS_PROJECTS column is the returned as an object.
I need to get the list back as one entry in the column OWNS_PROJECT.
null

Try something like this (PL/SQL):
---BEGIN---
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION getcolumn RETURN VARCHAR2
IS CURSOR c1 IS SELECT OWNS_PROJECT from PROJECTS_TABLE;
OUT VARCHAR(4000) := '';
BEGIN
FOR acct IN c1 LOOP
OUT := OUT| |', '| |acct.OWNS_PROJECT;
END LOOP;
RETURN OUT;
END;
---END---
With
select getcolumn from dual;
you get all rows concatenated to one row.
Hope this helps,
Bernhard

Hi,
The cursor has a different parameter? Maybe the query is not exactly the same. Could you check this?
This is your query (formatted):
SELECT DISTINCT PSE.PARENT_POSITION_ID,

Discoverer 11g Workbook Fails With Single row subquery returns more than 1

All -
We are using discoverer-11g workbook using EBS 12.1.3 integration
We are seeing below error message only for few users on all workbooks in discoverer.
ORA-01427 Single row subquery returns more than one row
EBS Version : 12.1.3
Discoverer Version : 11.1.1.6
Database Version : 11.2.0.3
Please advise on this
Regards
VSH

Hi,
If it is happening for only a few users then the problem may be caused by security conditions built into the query. However, you need to give us some information about the SQL the workbooks are running. Do you get this error even for the very simple queries?

Kindly help.

Another way, not waterproof too relay on rowid, but in your case it could work.
You have to verify it by yourself
update test_a aa
set col1 =
(select b.col1 from
(select
id, col1
,row_number() over
(partition by id order by col1) rn
from table_b) b,
( select
rowid, id, col1
,row_number() over (partition by id order by col1) sort_order
from test_a
) a
where
a.id=b.id
and
sort_order = rn
and
aa.rowid=a.rowid

ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row

Hi,
Welcome to the forum!
Whenever you have a question, please post some sample data, so that people can re-create the problem and test their solutions.
CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, like the ones below, are great:
CREATE TABLE      baemployee
(     employee     NUMBER (4)
,     stock_nbr     VARCHAR2 (10)
INSERT INTO baemployee (employee, stock_nbr) VALUES (1234, 'FUBAR');
CREATE TABLE     employee
(     employee     NUMBER (4)
,     emp_status     VARCHAR2 (10)
INSERT INTO employee (employee, emp_status) VALUES (1234, 'ACTIVE');CREATE TABLE AS is good, too:
CREATE TABLE     emp_check_dig
AS          SELECT 1234 AS employee, 'AA1234567890ZZZ' AS check_digit     FROM dual
UNION ALL     SELECT 1234,            'AA2121212121ZZZ'               FROM dual
;Also post the results you want from that data. In this case, the results would be the contents of the baemployee table after you run the UPDATE.
Would you want:
employee stock_nbr
1234       1234567890or would you want
employee stock_nbr
1234       2121212121If you run the UPDATE statement you posted with the data above, you'll get the "ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row" error, and you can see what causes it: there is more than one row from emp_check_dig that could be used to UPDATE the same row of baemployee. Say what you want to do in this situation (and why), and someone will help you find a way to do it.

ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row -- no solution

Hello to all:
I have to tables:
Table a anwender (Email,Dept). --> all fields are filled
Table b dingo (Name,email,dept) --> all fields are filled
I now want to update the table a with the data from table b:
update anwender a set a.abteilung = ( select distinct b.abteilung from dingo b where b.email = a.email);
Then I got the error: ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row
Every dept is about 100x in the database, so it is clear that i got more than one row back. But how can I update the table now?

Okay, I got several duplicates, and I deletet a lot of data in my database.
Now I want to remove all entries with more than one departments per mail adresses.
a
select email,count(abteilung) from dingo group by email having count(abteilung)>1 order by count(abteilung)
shows me all the fake mailadresses.
But a
delete from dingo where email in (select email,count(abteilung) from dingo group by email having count(abteilung)>1 order by count(abteilung) );
gives me a
SQL Error: ORA-00907: missing right parenthesis
I´m very confused now ...
Oops, now I got the solution:
delete from dingo where email in (select email from (select email,count(abteilung) from dingo group by email having count(abteilung)>1 )) ;

Hi ,
UPDATE projectdetails SET projectdetails.projectname=
(SELECT projectid FROM project WHERE projectdetails.projectname = project.projectname);
For any query, to test and excecute do as follow.
Break the query like
1. UPDATE projectdetails SET projectdetails.projectname=
2. (SELECT projectid FROM project WHERE projectdetails.projectname = project.projectname);
Run the select statement and you can identify ..
as the error defines the select statement is getting more than 1 value.
3. Check the 'Where' conditions each and every line, by commenting line by line and running the query.
You can resolve step by step, be confident bro we are with you.
I suggest you before updating all the rows, just try to update one row and test, if its working fine and you can update all.
Regards,
Afzal.

Update gives "single-row subquery returns more than one row"

Hi,
I have to update a table by getting values from two other tables. While doing that the inner query returns more than one value. I am not sure how to implement the logic without returning more than one row in sub quesry. Need help on that.
My query:
update buf_office_str o
set o.manager_ident =
(select sp.ident
from se2_r_src_sourceperson sp ,
(select distinct director_name, team_name from buf_sales_dump )t
where SP.SRCNAME = upper(substr(t.director_name,instr(t.director_name,' ')+1,length(t.director_name))||', '||substr(t.director_name,1,instr(t.director_name,' ')-1 ) )
and o.office_descr = t.team_name
Basically the query gets teh manager id from sp table where sp.srcname = t.team-name.
The office descr should be equal to the team_name.
This is the logic I am working towards:
For each office, i get the office_descr and get corresponding team_name. Match the team's director_name (from table t) with the sp.name and return the employee's id (sp.ident) for that office_descr.
I need to update all 50 offices with corresponding managerid for that office in buf_office_str table.
Is it possible to get done in one update? Pls let me know.

Hi,
"Single-row subquery returns more than one row" is one of those error messages that actually means what it says: the correlated sub-query in your SET clause is sometimes returning 2 or more rows .
The solution could be as simple as making the sub-query SELECT DISTINCT , as its in-line view, t, already is.
It's possible you have bad data, or a mistake in your statement.
To find the problem cases, you can run something like this:
WITH sub_q     AS
                   SELECT -- DISTINCT ?
                            sp.ident
                   ,         t.team_name
                   ,         COUNT (*) OVER (PARTITION BY t.team_name)     AS cnt
                   FROM    se2_r_src_sourceperson     sp
                   ,         ( SELECT DISTINCT director_name
                               ,                  team_name
                           FROM            buf_sales_dump
                         )                    t
                   WHERE   sp.srcname     = UPPER ( SUBSTR ( t.director_name
                                                     , INSTR ( t.director_name
                                              ) + 1
                                            , LENGTH (t.director_name)
                                      || ', '
                                      || SUBSTR ( t.director_name
                                                      , 1
                                               , INSTR ( t.director_name
                                                    ) - 1
SELECT     o.*     -- or whatever helps you
,     sq.*
FROM     buf_office_str     o
JOIN     sub_q          sq     ON     o.office_descr = sq.team_name
WHERE     sq.cnt          > 1
;If you'd like more help, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all the tables as they exist before the UPDATE, and the results you want from that data (that is, the contents of buf_office_str after the UPDATE). Make sure the problem occurs with the sample data you post.

Error single row subquery returns multiple values

Hi All,
I have a below query. This is query is throwiing error like single row subquery is returing more than number of records. That subquery is in my SELECT statement query. I have a value like 'tests'. That test contains more than one record. I am fetching that 'tests' child values from this query. If the test contains only one child at that time it is working fine. Can anyone share with how update this query?

Single-row subquery returns more than one query

Hi,
i'm receiving the following error: Single-row subquery returns more than one query. I have no idea how I should debug this query. For all I know, the subqueries can only return 1 row... :S
I only have Oracle SQL Developer to run/test my queries. I can run the query with ROWNUM < 5000, which gives no errors. If I run with ROWNUM > 5000 and ROWNUM < 6000 then the error appears....
Here's the query:
with
DATES as
(select (select min(REC_DATE) from STOCK) as FROM_DT, (select max(CHANGE_DATE) from STOCK_ADJUST) as TO_DT from DUAL),
MONTHS as
(select add_months(trunc(FROM_DT,'MM'),ROWNUM-1) as DT from DATES connect by ROWNUM <= months_between(TO_DT, FROM_DT)+1),
CALCULATIONS as
(select
    PNM.PNM_AUTO_KEY PNM_KEY,
    MONTHS.DT DT,
    NVL((select sum(stm.qty_rec) from stock stm WHERE STM.REC_DATE < MONTHS.DT AND STM.PNM_AUTO_KEY = PNM.PNM_AUTO_KEY GROUP BY pnm_auto_key),0) INCOMING,
    NVL((select sum(saj.qty_adj) from stock_adjust saj
                                inner join stock stm on saj.stm_auto_key = stm.stm_auto_key
                                inner join parts_master pnm on stm.pnm_auto_key = pnm.pnm_auto_key where SAJ.CHANGE_DATE < MONTHS.DT AND STM.PNM_AUTO_KEY = PNM.PNM_AUTO_KEY group by pnm_auto_key),0) OUTGOING
from MONTHS, PARTS_MASTER PNM)
SELECT
ROWNUM, CALCULATIONS.PNM_KEY PNM_AUTO_KEY, CALCULATIONS.DT COUNT_DATE,CALCULATIONS.INCOMING QTY_RECEIVED, CALCULATIONS.OUTGOING QTY_USED, (CALCULATIONS.INCOMING + CALCULATIONS.OUTGOING) QTY_BALANCE
FROM
CALCULATIONS;Edited by: user574699 on Nov 17, 2008 2:10 AM code formatting

I suppose (how can i be sure?) that the queries in question are:
NVL((select sum(stm.qty_rec) from stock stm WHERE STM.REC_DATE < MONTHS.DT AND STM.PNM_AUTO_KEY = PNM.PNM_AUTO_KEY GROUP BY pnm_auto_key),0) INCOMINGand
    NVL((select sum(saj.qty_adj) from stock_adjust saj
                                inner join stock stm on saj.stm_auto_key = stm.stm_auto_key
                                inner join parts_master pnm on stm.pnm_auto_key = pnm.pnm_auto_key where SAJ.CHANGE_DATE < MONTHS.DT AND STM.PNM_AUTO_KEY = PNM.PNM_AUTO_KEY group by pnm_auto_key),0) OUTGOINGBoth queries have an aggregate function based on the grouping on PNM_AUTO_KEY. Both WHERE clauses also include the = PNM_AUTO_KEY statement. So how can these return more than 1 row?
As I stated I cannot run the subqueries without the rest. The database contains over 200000 PNM_AUTO_KEYS, and I don't know which one is causing the problems....

Getting Error - Single-row subquery returns more than 1 row (Help Needed)

I have the following SQL. It selects several rows of data. This data reflects changed records. I want to update PS_UNI_TEXTBK_SKEW for the values selected. Any ideas. For updating I used:
update ps_uni_textbk_skew s
set (s.ssr_txbdtl_title, s.ssr_txbdtl_isbn, s.ubs_skew_num, s.process_date, s.ubs_rec_type) = (
and then I included theselect listed below. (this selects does work). It always produces an error saying 'singl-row subjquery returns more than 1 row'.
Any help would be appreciated. I've worked on this for a week now trying many different ways. Thanks, Mary

1. Take your subqueries
2. Run those separately to see if they really can return more than one row. If needed modify the subquery by adding GROUP-BY and HAVING-COUNT>1 clauses to determien that.
3. If you see more than one row coming up from subqueries then the error message you named will arise.
This is what i would do.
But in first look you don't have subqueries, you have "inline-views". so i don't understand how the eroor could occur.
