Sub-query question, looking up value within a query

I have a situation to lookup prior period value within the same query. I tried to use a sub-query but getting a syntax error:
SELECT [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].GLSeq, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].NUM_SITES, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].SGMNT1,
[VALUE-BAND_ACCT].SGMNT2, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].LOB$, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].PERIOD, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].RECUR, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].PROMOTED, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].COMB_REV_GRS, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].COMB_REV_NET, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].ARPSg_ACCT, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].ARPSn_ACCT,
[VALUE-BAND_ACCT].COMB_VALUE_BAND,
(SELECT [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].COMB_VALUE_BAND
FROM VALUE-BAND_ACCT
WHERE [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].PERIOD = DateSerial(Year([VALUE-BAND_ACCT].PERIOD), Month([VALUE-BAND_ACCT].PERIOD)-1, 1)) AS PRIOR_VALUE_BAND
FROM VALUE-BAND_ACCT;
Appreciating help.

Try this:
SELECT [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].GLSeq, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].NUM_SITES, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].SGMNT1,
[VALUE-BAND_ACCT].SGMNT2, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].LOB$, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].PERIOD,

[VALUE-BAND_ACCT].ARPSn_ACCT, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].COMB_VALUE_BAND,
[VALUE-BAND_ACCT_1].COMB_VALUE_BAND AS PRIOR_VALUE_BAND
FROM [VALUE-BAND_ACCT] INNER JOIN [VALUE-BAND_ACCT] AS [VALUE-BAND_ACCT_1]
ON [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].GLSeq = [VALUE-BAND_ACCT_1].GLSeq AND
[VALUE-BAND_ACCT].[LOB$] = [VALUE-BAND_ACCT_1].[LOB$]
WHERE [VALUE-BAND_ACCT_1].PERIOD =
DateSerial(Year([VALUE-BAND_ACCT].PERIOD), Month([VALUE-BAND_ACCT].PERIOD)-1, 1)
or
SELECT [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].GLSeq, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].NUM_SITES, [VALUE-BAND_ACCT].SGMNT1,

How to write multi row sub query with the row containing range of values?

Hi all,
I have to include a column which contains weight ranges and it should come fom table called "report_range_parameters"
The following query will reutrn those weight ranges.
select report_parameter_min_value || ' -> ' || report_parameter_max_value
 from report_range_parameters
 WHERE report_range_parameters.report_parameter_id = 2359
 and report_range_parameters.report_parameter_group = 'GVW_GROUP'
 and report_range_parameters.report_parameter_name = 'GVW_NAME'
 The below query should return the values group by those weight ranges.
How could I write that sub query?
select SUM(NVL("Class 0", 0)) "Class 0" ,
 SUM(NVL("Class 1", 0)) "Class 1" ,
 SUM(NVL("Class 2", 0)) "Class 2" ,
 SUM(NVL(" ", 0)) "Total"
 FROM (
 SELECT report_data.bin_start_date_time start_date_time,
 SUM(DECODE(report_data.gvw, 0, report_data.gvw_count, 0)) "Class 0" ,
 SUM(DECODE(report_data.gvw, 1, report_data.gvw_count, 0)) "Class 1" ,
 SUM(DECODE(report_data.gvw, 2, report_data.gvw_count, 0)) "Class 2" ,
 SUM(NVL(report_data.gvw_count, 0)) " "
 FROM report_data
 GROUP BY report_data.bin_start_date_time
 ) results
 RIGHT OUTER JOIN tmp_bin_periods
 ON results.start_date_time >= tmp_bin_periods.bin_start_date_time
 AND results.start_date_time < tmp_bin_periods.bin_end_date_time
 GROUP BY tmp_bin_periods.bin_start_date_time,
 tmp_bin_periods.bin_end_date_time Thanks.

Hi,
Assuming the following 4 things:
(1) report_range_parameters contains data like this, from your [previous thread|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=3541079#3541079]
id group name min_value max_value
1 gvw_group gvw_name 0 5
2 gvw_group gvw_name 5 10
3 gvw_group gvw_name 10 15(2) max_value is actually outside the range (that is, a value of exactly 5.000 is counted in the '5->10' range, not the '0->5' range)
(3) the range has to match some column x that is in one of the tables in your main query
(4) You want to add that column x to the GROUP BY clause
then you shopuld do somehting like this:
select SUM(NVL("Class 0", 0)) "Class 0" ,
 SUM(NVL("Class 1", 0)) "Class 1" ,
 SUM(NVL("Class 2", 0)) "Class 2" ,
 SUM(NVL(" ", 0)) "Total"
, report_parameter_min_value || ' -> ' || report_parameter_max_value AS weight_range -- New
 FROM (
 SELECT report_data.bin_start_date_time start_date_time,
 SUM(DECODE(report_data.gvw, 0, report_data.gvw_count, 0)) "Class 0" ,
 SUM(DECODE(report_data.gvw, 1, report_data.gvw_count, 0)) "Class 1" ,
 SUM(DECODE(report_data.gvw, 2, report_data.gvw_count, 0)) "Class 2" ,
 SUM(NVL(report_data.gvw_count, 0)) " "
 FROM report_data
 GROUP BY report_data.bin_start_date_time
 ) results
 RIGHT OUTER JOIN tmp_bin_periods
 ON results.start_date_time >= tmp_bin_periods.bin_start_date_time
 AND results.start_date_time < tmp_bin_periods.bin_end_date_time
 LEFT OUTER JOIN report_range_parameters -- New
 ON x >= report_parameter_min_value -- New
 AND x < report_parameter_max_value -- New
 AND report_range_parameters.report_parameter_id = 2359 -- New
 and report_range_parameters.report_parameter_group = 'GVW_GROUP' -- New

Too many values issues in sub query

Hi ALL,
I have a sql query like below :
SELECT A,B,C,(SELECT D,E,F,G FROM ABC,DEF,... WHERE ABC.ID=DEF.ID......) NAME FROM TEST1,TEST2 WHERE .......
So my subquery is throwing an error as too many values so how can i get column values in my subquery through single select statement.
Please help me on this

If you wish to cater it, you will have to write the same select statement for all the columns individually. viz. D, E, F, G shall amount to 4 individual selects in your main select statement.

Passing values dynamically Froman 'INLINE Query' to a 'SUB QUERY'

If I am using an line query which uses a SELF JOIN subquery
how can I pass the values from the Inline Query to Subquery ?
Is this possible?
SQL...Code
and Inline Queries..
(select count(*) 'PrimaryISIN'
from instrument ins,
          instrument_xref insx
where ins.id_inst = insx.id_inst
and     insx.flg_active = 'Y'
and     ins.id_source   ='MF'
and     ins.flg_primary_listing = 'Y'
and     ins.flg_active = 'Y'
and     insx.id_inst_xref = ( select DISTINCT a.id_inst_xref
                                from    instrument_xref a,
                                        instrument_xref b
                                  where b.id_inst_xref ='B0DV8Y9'
                                        and     b.id_inst = a.id_inst
                                     and     b.id_inst_xref_type in ('SE','IS')
                                  and    a.id_inst_xref = 'GB00B03MLX29'
)PISIN2
I am hardcoding the id_inst_xref is the SELF JOIN? Can these be passed dynamically from
the INLINE Query which is invoking the SUB QUERY?

Hi, The hardcoded values entered in the SELF JOIN run fine.
Now,I need to pass values dynamically from the INLINE query.
How do I do that?
Thanks

Can someone please help me with a sub query question?

I need to list a 3rd party contract and then a list of students who belong to that contract.
On the students segment of the listing I need to show students with student id, name, total credit hours,
total amount spent on tuition, total amount spent on books and total amount spent on misc.
This code has a query for the contract information and I get that just fine.
Then it has a query that gives me total credit hours and that works fine
then it has a query that gives me total amount spent on tuition and that works fine
but
when I add the next query to get total amount spent on books I get only the information for the contract, I don't get student stuff anymore.
I would really appreciate any guidance that you could give.
Thanks in advance, Bob Hohulski

Oracle 8i - PL/SQL sub query not working in PROC, but works ins SQL

I have read about certain things not working in 8i and I think this is one of them, but I was wondering if anyone had a work around. In the place of the SELECT SYSDATE FROM DUAL, I have a table look up, where I am going to look up the OCN of the corresponding VENDOR_ID ( a column in the original query ). I am doing it in a decode statement because if the first condition in the decode statement is met, that's it. But if not, it needs to look up the OCN number in this other table. Simple enough, conceptually. I thought of a view but that necessitates a SELECT statement, too. Anyway, here is the code with the appropriate text bolded:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE tstINS_RATE_ROUTE_RECORDS_PROC (GET_CUR_PERIOD IN DATE) IS
 CUR_PERIOD DATE;
 BEGIN
 CUR_PERIOD := GET_CUR_PERIOD;
 Insert into RATE_ROUTE (
 CVBI_KEY
 , VENDOR_ID
 , OCN
 , ST_CD
 , PERIOD
 , MDFY_DT )
 Select
 C.CVBI_KEY
 , C.VENDOR_ID
 , decode( c.send_lca, 'YES', 'XXX', (SELECT SYSDATE FROM DUAL) )
 , decode( c.send_lca, 'YES', 'XX', SUBSTR(C.ZLOC,5,2) )
 , CUR_PERIOD
 , TO_CHAR(SYSDATE)
 FROM
 rpt_ds1_cnt_cat c
 , cogs_resource cr
 , cogs_t1activity ct1
 , rpt_ds1_aloc_zloc_reverse_vw az
 where (C.CVBI_KEY = CR.CVBI_KEY (+)
 and CR.PERIOD = CUR_PERIOD)
 AND (C.CVBI_KEY = CT1.CVBI_KEY (+)
 and CT1.PERIOD = CUR_PERIOD)
 and (az.master_route_name=c.aloc||'-'||c.zloc OR az.reversed=c.aloc||'-'||c.zloc)
 END; -- INS_RATE_ROUTE_RECORDS_PROC

I was wondering if anyone had a work around.Write a function that returns the value. You may incur a performance penalty from a context switch to PL/SQL, but it may be balanced by the decode optimization you are attempting.

Get the two rows of customer with same amount value within consecutive year

Hi,
Below are sample data, what I would like to do is pull the customer along with their two finance details that have the same amount within the two consecutive year. Please note that there are many customers and not all customers are have these criteria, so the query should not include those customers.
Like in my sample data the result should be:
(first row)

Hi,
Depending on your exact requirements, you can do something like this:
WITH     got_this_yr     AS
     SELECT    id
     ,       MIN (invoice_date)               AS invoice_date
     ,       usd_amount
     ,       EXTRACT (YEAR FROM invoice_date)     AS this_yr
     FROM       finance
--     WHERE       ...     -- any filtering goes here
     GROUP BY id
     ,            usd_amount
     ,       EXTRACT (YEAR FROM invoice_date)
,     got_neighbor_values     AS
     SELECT     id
     ,     invoice_date
     ,     usd_amount
     ,     this_yr
     ,     LAG (this_year) OVER ( PARTITION BY id
                                ,           usd_amount
                            ORDER BY      this_year
                          )           AS prev_year
     ,     LEAD(this_year) OVER ( PARTITION BY id
                                ,           usd_amount
                            ORDER BY      this_year
                          )           AS next_year
     FROM     got_this_yr
SELECT       n.id
,       c.name
,       c.product
,       c.start_delivery
,       c.end_delivery
,       n.invoice_date
,       n.usd_amount
FROM       got_neighbor_values     n
JOIN       customer          c ON     c.id     = n.id
WHERE       n.this_year     IN ( n.prev_year + 1
                    , n.next_year - 1
ORDER BY n.id
,            n.usd_amount
,       n.invoice_date
;If you'd care to post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for the sample data, then I could test this.
This used the analytic LAG and LEAD functions to find the previous and next years when the same amount occurred with the same id. Since we want to use this value in a WHERE clause, it has to be computed in a sub-query (got_neighbor_vlues) first; analytic functions are always computed after the WHERRE clause is applied.
In the case of the very first year, LAG will return NULL, and in the case of the very last year, LEAD will return NULL. That's okay for our purposes; we just need something such that the WHERE clause of the main query will be TRUE if and only if one of the adjacent rows was a consecutive year.
Why don't you want a row for 2007 in the results? It looks like the same customer had the exact same amount in 2007, 2008 and 2009.
What happens if the same customer has the exact same amount 2 (or more) times in the same calendar year? The query above uses the earliest one in each year, and ignores the others. If that's not what you want, then post the results you do want

Trying to get multiple cell values within a geometry

I am provided with 3 tables:
1 - The GeoRaster
2 - The geoRasterData table
3 - A VAT table who's PK is the cell value from the above tables
Currently the user can select a point in our application and by using the getCellValue we get the cell value which is the PK on the 3rd table and this gives us the details to return to the user.
We now want to give the worst scenario within a given geometry or distance. So if I get back all the cell values within a given geometry/distance I can then call my other functions against the 3rd table to get the worst scores.
I had a conversation open for this before where JeffreyXie had some brilliant input, but it got archived while I was waiting on Oracle to resolve a bug (about 7 months)
See:
Trying to get multiple cell values within a geometry
If I am looking to get a list of cell values that interact with my geometry/distance and then loop through them, is there a better way?
BTW, if anybody wants to play with this functionality, it only seems to work in 11.2.0.4.
Below is the code I was using last, I think it is trying to get the cell values but the numbers coming back are not correct, I think I am converting the binary to integer wrong.
Any ideas?

Hey guys,
Zzhang,
That's a good spot and as it happens I spotted that and that is why I am sure I am querying that lob wrong. I always get the a logic going past the total length of the lob.
I think I am ok using 11.2.0.4, if I can get this working it is really important to us, so saying to roll up to 11.2.0.4 for this would be no problem.
The error in 11.2.0.3 was an internal error: [kghstack_underflow_internal_3].
Something that I think I need to find out more about, but am struggling to get more information on is, I am assuming that the lob that is returned is all cell values or at lest an array of 4 byte (32 bit) chunks, although, I don't know this.
Is that a correct assumption or is there more to it?
Have either of you seen any documentation on how to query this lob?
Thanks

Case Statement in sub query

Hi, I have two issues, here is my initial code:
select
cc.name_id_no
,cc.discover_date
,cc.cla_case_no
,max(rl.year_of_incident)Non_Loss_Past_5
,rl.timestamp
from cla_case cc, rbn_loss rl
where cc.name_id_no = rl.customer_no
and rl.year_of_incident < trunc(cc.discover_date)
and rl.type_of_loss < 1000
and rl.timestamp < trunc(cc.discover_date)
and (cc.question_class = 20
or cc.question_class = 25)
and (trunc(cc.discover_date)- (rl.year_of_incident)) < 1095
--and (trunc(cc.discover_date) <> (rl.year_of_incident))
group by cc.cla_case_no,name_id_no, cc.discover_date,rl.timestamp
Now a cla_case_no can map to several year_of_incident. I only want the cla_case_no that maps to the max year_of_incident ie There should only be a single cla_case_no corresponding to the max year_of_incident.
To get around this I did the following which is not very efficient and I'm hoping it can be improved:
select distinct z.cla_case_no from (
select
cc.name_id_no
,cc.discover_date
,cc.cla_case_no
,max(rl.year_of_incident)Non_MW_Loss_Past_5
,rl.timestamp
from cla_case cc, rbn_loss rl
where cc.name_id_no = rl.customer_no
and rl.year_of_incident < trunc(cc.discover_date)
and rl.type_of_loss < 1000
and rl.timestamp < trunc(cc.discover_date)
and (cc.question_class = 20
or cc.question_class = 25)
and (trunc(cc.discover_date)- (rl.year_of_incident)) < 1095
--and (trunc(cc.discover_date) <> (rl.year_of_incident))
group by cc.cla_case_no,name_id_no, cc.discover_date,rl.timestamp
) z
Now comes the second issue: The above is actually a subquery that will link to a bigger table via cla_case_no ccx
SELECT
ie ,(select distinct z.cla_case_no from (
select cc.name_id_no, cc.discover_date ,cc.cla_case_no, max(rl.year_of_incident)Non_MW_Loss_Past_5, rl.timestamp
from cla_case cc, rbn_loss rl
where cc.name_id_no = rl.customer_no
and rl.year_of_incident < trunc(cc.discover_date)
and rl.type_of_loss < 1000
and rl.timestamp < trunc(cc.discover_date)
and (cc.question_class = 20
or cc.question_class = 25)
and (trunc(cc.discover_date)- (rl.year_of_incident)) < 1095
--and (trunc(cc.discover_date) <> (rl.year_of_incident))
group by cc.cla_case_no,name_id_no, cc.discover_date,rl.timestamp
) z
where z.cla_case_no = ccx.cla_case_no
) Non_MW_Loss_Past_5
FROM etc
Now only certain cc.cla_case_no from the subquery will corresp to the ccx_cla_case_no from the main table and the other entries will be null.
What I require is that if the subquery returns a result that IS NOT NULL to return 'Y' ELSE 'N' instead of the varies cla_case_no's and (null) entries in the Non_MW_Loss_Past_5 column
Thanks!!!

Hi,
It looks like you have another copy of this question:
Case Statement and sub query
That's probably not your fault, but you should mark the other copy as "Answered" right away, and then you'll only have to look for replies in one place.

Doubt in sub-query

I have a doubt with the use of sub-queries. I am using a query like as below & it is giving me expected result:-
SELECT ISS.item_type_id,count(1) + (select sum(invoiced_qty) from ppbs_invoice_detail where
trunc(created_date) between '01-jul-05' and '04-jul-05' and item_type_id=ISS.item_type_id) qty
FROM ppbs_INV_SIM_SERIAL ISS
WHERE INSTR('ROAAIT',STATUS)>0
AND INSTR('NU0NU1NU2NU3SC0',CITY_CODE) =0
and ISS.item_type_id in ('SM17')
group by ISS.item_type_id --
I will re-write above query & i have been using queries like :-
SELECT ISS.item_type_id,count(1) qty
FROM ppbs_INV_SIM_SERIAL ISS
WHERE INSTR('ROAAIT',STATUS)>0
AND INSTR('NU0NU1NU2NU3SC0',CITY_CODE) =0
and ISS.item_type_id in ('SM17') and item_type_id in
(select item_type_id from ppbs_invoice_detail where
trunc(created_date) between '01-jul-05' and '04-jul-05' and item_type_id=ISS.item_type_id)
group by ISS.item_type_id
my doubt here is that the sub-query in the first query is coming before i use the table 'ppbs_inv_sim_serial ISS' whereas in the second query, the table use 'ppbs_inv_sim_serial ISS' is coming before the sub-query use. I have been using queries where table name is defined before the sub-query.
I hope, my question is clear. Please help in solving the doubt.
Regards.

I don't see a problem with the table aliasing that you seem to doubt, but your first query won't run. I boiled the thing down to basics: SQL>create table t1 (one number, val_1 number );
Table created.
SQL>create table t2 (one number, val_2 number );
Table created.
SQL>insert into t1 values (1,1);
1 row created.
SQL>insert into t2 values (1,2);
1 row created.
SQL>select a.one, count(1) + ( select sum(val_2) from t2 where t2.one = a.one) qty
2 from t1 a
3 group by one;
select a.one, count(1) + ( select sum(val_2) from t2 where t2.one = a.one) qty
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression
SQL>
SQL>select a.one, count(1) qty

4 group by one;
       ONE        QTY
         1          1It's superfluous to "where a.one in ( select.. where = a.one) but that's your code basically. I would just do "="

Query Performance and Result Set Query/Sub-Query

Hi,
I have an infoset with as many as 15 joins with different ODS and Master Data..The ODS are quite huge with 20 million, 160 million records)...Its taking a lot of time even for a few days and need to get atleast 3 months data in a reasonable amount of time....
Could anyone please tell me whether Sub-Query or Result Set Query have to be written against the same InfoProvider (Cube, Infoset, etc)...or they can be used in queries
on different infoprovider...
Please suggest...Thanks in Advance.
Regards
Anil

Hi Bhanu,
Needed some help defining the Precalculated Value Set as I wasnt succesful....
Please suggest answers if possible for the questions below
1) Can I use Filter Criteria for restricting the value set for the characteristic when I Define a Query on an ODS. When i tried this it gave me errors as below ..
"System error in program CL_RSR_REQUEST and form EXECUTE_VTABLE:COB_PRO_GET_ALWAYS.... Error when filling value set DELIVERY..
Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE"
2) Can I create a create a Value Set predefined on an Infoset - Not Succesful as Infoset have names such as "InfosetName_F000232" and cannot find the characteristic in Paramter Tab for Value Set in Reprting Agent.
3) How does the precalculated value Set variable help if I am not using any Filtering Criteria and is storing the List of all values for the Variable from the ODS which consists of 20 millio records.
Thanks for your help.
Kind Regards
Anil

Sub query related information

HI,
Could you pls. tell me the use of the subquery in different clauses; such as;
1. when to use the subquery in the FROM clause ?
2. when to use the subquery in the WHERE clause ?
3. when to use the select statement within the select statement; such as, select last_name, (select employee_id.......) ?
I am aware of that in real life the usage of the subquery depends on the requirements whcih is encountered.
If you have any document (pdf/word doc) / source where the the usage of the subquery is broadly elaborated with example (preferaby based on EMPLOYEES and DEPARTMENTS tables), pls. let me know. It will help me a lot.
Warm regards,

Use it when you want to treat the result set of a query as if it were a table.
In Oracle 9 (and up) you can also us the WITH clause for this purpose.
2. when to use the subquery in the WHERE clause ? There are two specail types of qub-queries, EXISTS- and IN sub-queries, that return boolean values.
Use them when they help you get the results you need.
They're not restricted to WHERE clauses: you can use EXISTS and IN sub-queries in CASE statements in other clauses, too.
3. when to use the select statement within the select statement; such as, select last_name, (select employee_id.......) ? That's called a scalar sub-query.
Use it when you want to treat the result set as if it were a single value.
Scalar sub-queries are not restricted to the SELECT clause: you can use them in other clauses, too.
I am aware of that in real life the usage of the subquery depends on the requirements whcih is encountered. Exactly. All of these are tools. Not all tools are appropriate for all jobs.

Nested sub query

HI,
how ro write nested multiple row ( row should consist range of values )sub query between tables if they dont have any common column.
Based on this weight range I have to group the other columns.
For eg:
My table should contain
weight-range:
1-> 2
2->3
3->4
etc

Please repost your question adding clarity and an example so we can understand what you are asking. Also include your full version number.

How to get all rows that are returned in inner sub query of select statemen

If a sub query in select statement returns more than one row than how to get all those returned rows in the final
output of the query .It will be all right if all column's value repeat and that multiple output of inner query comes
in another column .
How to get that ?

As Frank said, you likely want a join, and likely an outer join to replicate the select in the projection. Something like:
SELECT id,stat, section, USER_ID concerned_person
FROM table_all,
left join table2
    on room_id = sectoion and
       sur_role = 'r001'
WHERE section IN (SELECT code
                  FROM t_area
                  WHERE dept= 'p002')An alternative, depending on where and how you are using the statement would be something like:
SQL> WITH t AS (

Error in Sub-Query

Dear All,
Based on below image show that the error message, As i know is aggregation problem in sub query, May i know how to solve it ? thank you.

Please have enough Netiquette to post DDL and not pictures.
Think about how absurd "MIN(AVG(AGE)))" on two levels. No, really, you can see that this is absurd if you have any concept of sets.
No competent programmer would put age in a column. It is a dynamic value! The constant is birith_date. Age is computed in the presentation layers.
