Substring in select statement

i have a selection screen where year is only input field, and in my table there is a date field, so i have to retrieve the data only of the given year only, so how do i substring the date field of that table and compare with my input in select statement

If your corresponding database table has the year field and you want to get the data according to the fiscal year
then try the following ways : .
parameters : p_date type datum. " Ur date field.
data : g _year type i.
at selection-screen:.
move p_date+0(4) to g_year.
Then pass g_year in your where clause.
or you can use the FM.
CALL FUNCTION 'GET_CURRENT_YEAR'
    EXPORTING
      bukrs = u2018ur company code'u2019
      date = ur date field.
    IMPORTING
*      currm = fiscalmonth
      curry = g_year.
here also pass g_year in your where clause.

Substring in the select statement

Hi,
Have a table with 5 columns in it...
Table A
col1
col2
col3
col4
col5
Want to retrieve some columns from that table using the select query, in which substring will be used to extract a part of string from each value contained in the col3 on executing select statement.
How to use the substring in the select statement to perform the above?
Regards

What's wrong with <tt>SUBSTR(col3,4,2)</tt> etc? What do the other columns have to do with it?

Getting error while executing this select statement

Hi All,
I am new to this community.
I am getting error whie compiling the below code. Its telling 'Text' is invalid identifier. Also i want to know how can we obtain 'parseable' version of the below query?
my basic intention is to create a trigger header through a select statement and show it the complete text as a single column..
select text from
(select 'CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER '||SUBSTR(column_name,2,4)||'aud
AFTER INSERT
OR UPDATE
OF '||column_name||',
OR DELETE ON '||table_name||'
FOR EACH ROW'
FROM(SELECT lower(REPLACE(column_name,'O_','')) column_name , /*changing O to O_*/
lower(replace(t.table_name,'_A_','_')) table_name,
lower(t.table_name) table_name1,
c.column_id
FROM all_tab_columns c,
(SELECT object_name table_name
FROM all_objects
WHERE object_name LIKE '%/_A/_%' ESCAPE '/') t
WHERE c.table_name(+) = t.table_name
AND SUBSTR(column_name(+),1,2) = 'O_'))

thanks prathamesh. it solved the problem. i have one more question.
as of now it creates single create trigger statement for each column on a table.
example:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER ust_aud
AFTER INSERT
OR UPDATE
OF cust_id,
OR DELETE ON characteristic_t
FOR EACH ROW
however, i want to create trigger for all columns in a single statement. can you please help me how to do it?
basically want to 'CREATE TRIGGER' for all columns in a table. i am finding difficult how to change my query to suit this!!
i am pasting my original query again for your reference. pls advise...
example:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER ust_aud
AFTER INSERT
OR UPDATE
OF cust_id,
fixed_item_val,
copy_item_val,
rgn_id,
txn_id,
OR DELETE ON characteristic_t
FOR EACH ROW
ORIGINAL QUERY
select text from
(select 'CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER '||SUBSTR(column_name,2,4)||'aud
AFTER INSERT
OR UPDATE
OF '||column_name||',
OR DELETE ON '||table_name||'
FOR EACH ROW' text
FROM(SELECT lower(REPLACE(column_name,'O_','')) column_name , /*changing O to O_*/

How to use bind variable in this select statement

Hi,
I have created this procedure where table name and fieldname is variable as they vary, therefore i passed them as parameter. This procedure will trim leading (.) if first five char is '.THE''. The procedure performs the required task. I want to make select statement with bind variable is there any possibility to use a bind variable in this select statement.
the procedure is given below:
create or replace procedure test(tablename in varchar2, fieldname IN varchar2)
authid current_user
is
type poicurtype is ref cursor;
poi_cur poicurtype;
sqlst varchar2(250);
THEVALUE NUMBER;
begin
     sqlst:='SELECT EMPNO FROM '||TABLENAME||' WHERE SUBSTR('||FIELDNAME||',1,5)=''.THE ''';
     DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(SQLST);
OPEN POI_CUR FOR SQLST ;
LOOP
     FETCH POI_CUR INTO THEVALUE;
          EXIT WHEN POI_CUR%NOTFOUND;
          DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(THEVALUE);
          SQLST:='UPDATE '||TABLENAME|| ' SET '||FIELDNAME||'=LTRIM('||FIELDNAME||',''.'')';
          SQLST:=SQLST|| ' WHERE EMPNO=:X';
          DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(SQLST);
               EXECUTE IMMEDIATE SQLST USING THEVALUE;
END LOOP;
COMMIT;
END TEST;
Best Regards,

So you want to amend each row individually? Is there some reason you're trying to make this procedure run as slow as possible?
create or replace procedure test (tablename in varchar2, fieldname in varchar2)
authid current_user
is
   sqlst      varchar2 (250);
   thevalue   number := 1234;
begin
   sqlst := 'update ' || tablename || ' set ' || fieldname || '= ltrim(' || fieldname || ',''.'') where substr(' || fieldname
      || ',1,5) = ''.THE ''';
   dbms_output.put_line (sqlst);
   execute immediate sqlst;
end test;will update every row that satisfies the criteria in a single statement. If there are 10 rows that start with '.THE ' then it will update 10 rows.

Edit an object's select statement of OLAP universe SAP BW

Hi everybody
I am new at working with Olap Universes BW, and I have to edit one universe SAP BW, I don't know if I can to use substring function on a select statement, for example substring([0D_DIV].[LEVEL01],5,5), I try to use this function but I have a error,
Could you help me? I need to returns part of a string, is correct to do it on a universe or is better to do at BW.

Hi,
First of all I recommend you read the documentation that gives you information about OLAP universes and especially SAP BW universes.
I also recommend to download documents related to SAP universes deployment, administration and customization:
[OLAP Universes - how to samples and recommendations |https://wiki.wdf.sap.corp/wiki/display/globalregions/OLAPUniverses-howtosamplesand+recommendations]
[SAP Integration |https://wiki.wdf.sap.corp/wiki/display/globalregions/SAP+Integration]
Now you can customize expression using MDX in OLAP universes. MDX expressions must be enclosed with <EXPRESSION></EXPRESSION> XML tags.
Unfortunately SAP BW MDX does not support calculations that return string or date values.
The onlyway to return string is to use NAME or UNOIQUENAME attribute.
See answers I already in the forum: [Forum answer |Re: Create new dimension on top of SAP BW data]

Benchmarks on select statements

Hi,
I'm during preparing test on select statement to check what clause cause the most slow down. Therefore I prepare 3 select statement:
1) select which transform all columns in source table for oracle's functions like: substr, rpad, decode, nvl,upper, mod, greatest, length, power, instr etc..
2) select with big where clause (about 7 lines) which take from 2 tables
3) select which have where, group by, having and order by clauses
Perhaps I will have first result today. But I am very interested what is your experience in this subject?? Which case cause the biggest slow down?
Best.

Hi Tut,
what is your experience in this subject?? Every database is different, but in general:
1) select which transform all columns in source table for oracle's functions like: substr, rpad, decode, nvl,upper, mod, greatest, length, power, instr etc..Very low overhead.
2) select with big where clause (about 7 lines) which take from 2 tablesLong time to parse, and sometime Oracle does not get the cardinality right and joins the tables in the wrong order. To fix this issue:
1 - apply histograms. I have my notes here: http://www.dba-oracle.com/art_otn_cbo_p4.htm
2 - Use an ORDERED hint to enforce the best table join order: I have my notes here: http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_table_join_order.htm
3) select which have where, group by, having and order by clausesJust make sure that you have a large enough PGA to void sorts to disk (sort_area_size, pga_aggregate_target)
Hope this answers your questions . . .

ORA-24333 on Select Statement

Last night I attempted to roll a Crystal Reports .NET project to my production web server. This app has 3 new Crystal Reports. The Reports are all based upon the same Oracle Views on the same Oracle Database. Two of the reports work while the third report returns an ORA-24333 error. The exact reports and .NET code, connecting to the same Oracle database work fine in Preview mode and when published to my development IIS web server. The ONLY thing that is different is that the report is now being run on the production IIS web server. (But it is still the same Oracle Database we are connecting to in all environments.)
Here is the Command used for the Crystal Report that fails. Sorry it is so long. Basically, it is 4 Select statements joined together with Unions. Stuff in {} are parameters that are passed to it.

Convert NVARCHAR2 to VARCHAR2 in select statement

I need to convert NVARCHAR2 values to VARCHAR2 in a select statement. Is this possible? The COUNTY_PARCEL_DATA colums are the NVARCHAR2 columns that need converting. I've tried TRANSLATE(COUNTY_PARCEL_DATA.SITUS_STREET_NUMBER USING CHAR_CS), CAST(COUNTY_PARCEL_DATA.SITUS_STREET_NUMBER AS VARCHAR2(100)), CONVERTCS(COUNTY_PARCEL_DATA.SITUS_STREET_NUMBER, 'CHAR_CS') and others directly in the statement for each column. Anything I'm missing? Thanks.

Calling a user defined function in a select statement

PLS-00231: function 'F_GET_PROJECT_ID' may not be used in SQL
I am caling a user defined function 'F_GET_PROJECT_ID' in a select statement and getting the above error .
Can any one help me to resolve it.
I can not replace the function with a local variable nor can I assign the output of the function to a variable and use the variable in the sql stmt. cos, the in put parameters of the function comes from the same select statement.
Please help
Thanks in advance

Can you provide your function code? Using a function like that is possible from the below example. I suspect something in your function code.

Can you change this:
BETWEEN '01-Mar-2009'
AND '31-Mar-2009'To this:
BETWEEN TO_DATE('01-Mar-2009', 'DD-MON-YYYY')
AND TO_DATE('31-Mar-2009','DD-MON-YYYY')That may make no difference but you should never rely on implicit conversions like that, they're always likely to cause you nasty surprises.
If you're still getting the discrepancy, instead of and INSERT-SELECT, can you try a CREATE TABLE AS SELECT... just to see if you get the same result.

Need to wite pl sql procedure for dynamic select statement

Need pl sql procedure for a Dynamic select statement which will drop tables older than 45 days
select 'Drop table'||' ' ||STG_TBL_NAME||'_DTL_STG;' from IG_SESSION_LOG where substr(DTTM_STAMP, 1, 9) < current_date - 45 and INTF_STATUS=0 order by DTTM_STAMP desc;

I used this to subtract any data older than 2 years, adjustments can be made so that it fits for forty five days, you can see how I changed it from the originaln dd-mon-yyyy to a "monyy", this way it doesn't become confused with the Static data in the in Oracle, and call back to the previous year when unnecessary:
TO_NUMBER(TO_CHAR(A.MV_DATE,'YYMM')) >= TO_NUMBER(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE - 365, 'YYMM'))

SELECT statement throwing error in Pro*C

Hi All,
I have a Pro*C report that I am creating and the selmacro in the report has a SQL statement like
EXEC SQL DECLARE cursor_000 CURSOR FOR
SELECT (select 'Y' from dual)
FROM spriden
WHERE spriden_change_ind IS NULL;
Now this throws me an error saying :
Syntax error at line 538, column 16, file tzrages.pc:
Error at line 538, column 16 in file tzrages.pc
SELECT (select 'Y' from dual)
...............1
PCC-S-02201, Encountered the symbol "'Y'" when expecting one of the following:
( ) * + - / . @ | at, day, hour, minute, month, second, year,
Syntax error at line 1954, column 16, file tzrages.pc:
Error at line 1954, column 16 in file tzrages.pc
FROM DUAL;
My Observation is that when I put a "select" statement in the select clause of the SQL, it throws the error. However if I write the query with out the "SELECT" in the select clause, it works just fine.
Any clues on this. I need to have multiple "Select" statements in the SELECT clause, and cannot do without it.

Thanks Satrap and Billy for replying to the post. Appreciate it.
What the query actually looks like is
SELECT college_name
,college_location
,student_category
,sum(30_day_balance)
,sum(60_day_balance)
,sum(90_day_balance)
FROM ( SELECT college_name
,college_location
, NVL ( (SELECT DECODE (substr(A.company_id,1,1)
,'V','Bad Debt'
,'D','Active SAC'
FROM company_table A
,collections_table C
WHERE C.student_id = B.student_id
AND C.collector_id = A.collector_id
), 'Active'
) STUDENT_CATEGORY
, ( SELECT NVL ( SUM ( D.balance),0)
FROM balance_table D
WHERE D.balance_date BETWEEN to_date(:report_run_date) - 30 AND to_date (:report_run_date)
AND D.collection_code = :collection_code
AND D.student_id = B.student_id
) 30_DAY_BALANCE
, ( SELECT NVL ( SUM ( D.balance),0)
FROM balance_table D
     WHERE D.balance_date BETWEEN to_date(:report_run_date) - 60 AND ( to_date (:report_run_date) - 30 + 1)
AND D.collection_code = :collection_code
     AND D.student_id = B.student_id
     ) 60_DAY_BALANCE
     , ( SELECT NVL ( SUM ( D.balance),0)
FROM balance_table D
     WHERE D.balance_date BETWEEN to_date(:report_run_date) - 90 AND ( to_date (:report_run_date) - 60 + 1)
AND D.collection_code = :collection_code
     AND D.student_id = B.student_id
     ) 90_DAY_BALANCE
     FROM student_table B
     WHERE B.student_id IN ( SELECT E.student_id
     FROM collections_table E
     WHERE E.collection_code = :collection_code
     GROUP BY E.student_id
     HAVIN SUM(E.balance) BETWEEN :min_balance AND :max_balance
GROUP BY college_name,college_location,student_category
Please note that anything with a ':' as a prefix (:collection_code,:max_balance) is a parameter for the Query
When I run the query in toad, it works fine, but when I compile it in Pro*C it throws an error as mentioned in the previous post.

Using a varchar field to select statement

Hi all
I have a single row and single column table
T(command varchar2(4000))
and the row is
sno,name
And I have another table T1(sno number,name varchar)
Now can any body tell how can i use command column in table T to query T1 to get sno,name from T1
I am looking for a select statement like this
select (select command from T) from T1;
but it is printing out the data in T i mean sno, name
This is a copy of thread Selecting output of a select statement
but explained more clearly
Thanks,
ganesh.

I don't know why your tables are designed like this but what I think you want to do is join T1 with the data in T.
select sno, name from T1
where sno in (select substr(command,0,instr(command,',')-1) from T)
and name in (select substr(command,instr(command,',')+1) from T);
substr returns a string up to a position
instr returns the position of a string
and the other post you refer to as about as confusing as your one.

How to create a cursor on a union select statement?

Hi,
Using Oracle 10g RAC +ASM ( RELEASE 1002000300)
What are is the proper way to create a cursor on a union select statement?
Is it possible?
code lines, Results in PLS-00201 error: sT := crsR.STATUS; sS := crsR.TIME;
Procedure listed below:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE BUILD_SUMMARY IS
CURSOR csrO IS
SELECT
STATUS,
TIME
FROM (
SELECT
SUBSTR(DESCRIPTION,1,50) STATUS,
TO_CHAR(TIMESTAMP,'MM/DD/YY hh12:mi:ss') TIME
FROM GLOBALSALES.CUBE_STATUS
UNION ALL
SELECT
' TOTAL BUILD TIME',
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('00:00:00','HH24:MI:SS') +(MAX(TIMESTAMP) - MIN(TIMESTAMP)), 'HH24:MI:SS')
FROM GLOBALSALES.CUBE_STATUS);
csrR csrO%ROWTYPE;
sT LONG :='';
sS LONG :='';
BEGIN
FOR csrR IN csrO
LOOP
sT := crsR.STATUS;
sS := crsR.TIME;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(sT || ' ' || sS);
END LOOP;
END;
/

csrR csrO%ROWTYPE;
Declares the csrR correct? Cursor Record of Cursor Object Type?That line declares one variable CSRR with your column structure described by the cursor (CSRO) type you declared above it. It means the CSRR variable has the columns you had in the SELECT statement in that cursor.
When you run a cursor as you did you don't need to declare the record variable. Try this:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE build_summary IS
CURSOR csro IS
    SELECT status, TIME
      FROM (SELECT substr(description, 1, 50) status, to_char(TIMESTAMP, 'MM/DD/YY hh12:mi:ss') TIME
              FROM globalsales.cube_status
            UNION ALL
            SELECT ' TOTAL BUILD TIME',
                   to_char(to_date('00:00:00', 'HH24:MI:SS') + (MAX(TIMESTAMP) - MIN(TIMESTAMP)),
                           'HH24:MI:SS')
              FROM globalsales.cube_status);
--csrr csro%ROWTYPE;
st   LONG := '';
ss   LONG := '';
BEGIN
FOR csrr IN csro
LOOP
    st := csrr.status;
    ss := csrr.time;
    dbms_output.put_line(st || ' ' || ss);
END LOOP;
END;Also why are you using LONG? It's a deprecated data type and Oracle recommends against using it. Either pick varchar2(4000) or CLOB.
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE will implicitly convert that LONG data type anyway.
