Summing Selected Rows in Column Depending on Value in Another Column

I'd like to sum only the values in selected rows in a given column depending on the value of another column in the same row. For example, suppose I have a table (please disregard the underscores, needed for correct alignment):
___A____B____C___D
1__5___10___15___0
2_20___25___30___1
3_35___40___45___1
4_50___55___60___0
5__sum(D=1)
In cell B5, I'd like to compute the sum of only rows in column B for which the value of the corresponding column D is 1. In this case B5 would be 65.
How can I do this using functions? Is it possible to do it for a variable range of rows without specifying each row individually?
Thanks,
Dave

You should place your formula to other collumn then calculated ones or in another table. You will be able to calculate whole collumns with: =SUMIF(D;“=1”;B)
Formula for your example is: =SUMIF(D1:D4;“=1”;B1:B4)

Color a column based on value in another column in tableview

I am using a tableview iterator to display data in a bsp page. I want to color a cell in particular column (column 4), when a value in another column (column 2) on that same row is greater than 20. I can color the cell in column 2 but am not able to color the cell in column 4. How can I accomplish this?
This is what I have. Looks like val1 is losing it's value.
CASE p_column_index.
    WHEN 2.
      ASSIGN p_row_data_ref->* TO <row>.
      ASSIGN COMPONENT 'ZTGT' OF STRUCTURE <row> TO <col>.
      VAL = <col>.
      IF VAL GT '20'.
        val1 = p_row_index.
        p_style = 'celldesign:CRITICALVALUE_DARK'.
      ENDIF.
    WHEN 4.
        if p_row_index = val1.
          p_style = 'celldesign:CRITICALVALUE_DARK'.
        endif.
    WHEN OTHERS.
do nothing
ENDCASE.

The reason val1 is "loosing its' value" is presumably because you have defined it in the method as a local variable. So each time you call the RENDER_CELL_START method it is is newly initialised. So if you make this an instance attribute it will retain its' contents across method calls.

Insert value into a column based on value of another column

Hi,
I am trying to insert a value into a record based on a column in
the record, using a trigger. The complication arises because
the new value is selected from the same table. For example:
SELECT COL1, COL2, COL3, COL4 from TABLE1
I want to set COL2 and COL3 based on the value of COL4. And to
get the value of COL2 and COL3, I will go back to TABLE1 and set
the condition to TABLE1.COL1 = :NEW.COL4
I cannot seem to execute the trigger as I get the message "ORA-
04091: table SYSTEM.TABLE1 is mutating, trigger/function may not
see it" everytime.
Is this the correct way to achieve what I wanted? Or is there
another way?
Appreciate your feedback. Thank you in advance.

Appreciate your feedback. Thank you in advance. I'm not sure what you mean when you insert a value into a
record, but if you are setting a value in a column of the same
record using a trigger, then it's easy.
:new.COL2 := ....:new.COL4...
:new.COL3 := ....:new.COL4...
The trigger must be 'INSERT or UPDATE' and 'FOR EACH RECORD'.
If you are setting a different record in the same table, the
solution is much more difficult.

Making whole row coloured red based on value in one column in BI Answers.

Hi
Would anyone know how to make a whole row red (eg) based on the value from one column within the row in
a BI Answers report in either a pivot table or a table view. I know it should be a case of setting up the
conditional formatting in the Conditional Tab on the Properties of the column, but all the columns apart from the
one with the value being determined ignore the value in another column.
Thanks,

Update one column while getting the value in another column

Is it possible to in one single SQL statement update two columns in a table while at the same time obtaining the value of another column, on the same row, in the same table, and independently (that is, the update of the columns has nothing to do with the data that I want from another column)*?* Of course, I can do this in two operations, one being a "select" and the other one being an "update", but since I am in the same table and even on the same row, is it really necessary to make TWO database calls? That's why I want to combine the the two SQL-statements, for reasons of presumed effiency.

At least not in terms of SQL.
JDBC requires a 'statement' but in SQL (depending on the data source) that can include multiple statements. An obvious example of this is a stored proc but there are other ways as well.

Need to get sequence value in another column in oracle

Hi ALL,
I have sql query as below
select header_id,order_number from oe_order_headers_all.
and data it is displaying as
heder_id     order_number
111            500001
121            500400
I need to display another field with some sequence value like as below
id     heder_id     order_number
1      111                    500001
2      121                    500400
so how to get sequence value in another column please help me on this.

You can just use ROWNUM Pseudocolumn
select rownum id, header_id,order_number from oe_order_headers_all

How to copy one column BLOB value into another column of another database.

How to copy one column BLOB value into another column of another database.
BLOB value contains word document.
I thought of copy the BLOB value into a text file and then update the new column value by the same text in textfile. Will this work?
Is there any other better way to do this?

You're welcome
BLOB fields contains binary data. I don't think you can do this
Also if I view the BLOB as text. Can I copy it and insert into the new database.
I think your options are as I said. Datapump or CTAS

Is it possible to create a Column with Conditional Mandatory with another Column?

Is it possible to create a Column with Conditional Mandatory with another Column?
For example
In a Table we have column A, B, C.
A is Primary Column.
B is Optional
C is Conditional Mandatory.
A B
C
12345 ABC
OK
12346 NULL
NULL
12347 ABC
OK
Only if the B Column has the value then only C column should be mandatory

I guess you can't create a condtional mandatory column directly. However, you can use check constraint to on the column
create table YourTable
A int primary key,
B char(3),
C int,
constraint ch_con check(
B
is not null
or C is null

Get Min value and another column value from the same row

hi all - for each customer and product, I need to grab the row that has the min value for field Value1. I could've just done group by on customer and product and min on Value1, but I also need to grab Vlaue2 from the same row where the minimum value for
Value1 lies.
DECLARE @Temp TABLE (CustomerID INT, ProductID VARCHAR(10), Trans_Date Date, Value1 INT, Value2 INT)
INSERT INTO @Temp VALUES (123, 'ABC', '1/1/2013', 10, 100)
INSERT INTO @Temp VALUES (456, 'ASD', '1/1/2013', 40, 500)
INSERT INTO @Temp VALUES (456, 'ASD', '2/1/2013', 90, 700)
INSERT INTO @Temp VALUES (123, 'ABC', '2/1/2013', 20, 700)
SELECT * FROM @Temp
The output should be
123, ABC, 10, 100
456, ASD, 40, 500
I know that I can just join the table to itself and get the desired output but I am dealing with a table that has millions of rows and I was hoping there is more efficient way to do this. any help would be highly appreciated...

Here is a correction on your DDL to make it into nearly valid table.
CREATE TABLE Sales
(customer_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
product_id CHAR(10) NOT NULL,
transaction_date DATE NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (customer_id, product_id, transaction_date),
value1 INTEGER NOT NULL,
value2 INTEGER NOT NULL);
Here is the current syntax for insertion:
INSERT INTO Sales
VALUES (123, 'abc', '2013-01-01', 10, 100),
(456, 'asd', '2013-01-01', 40, 500),
(456, 'asd', '2013-02-01', 90, 700),
(123, 'abc', '2013-02-01', 20, 700);
WITH
X
AS
(SELECT customer_id, product_id, transaction_date, value1, value2,
MIN(value1) OVER () AS value1_min
FROM Sales)
SELECT X.*
FROM X
WHERE X.value1_min = X.value1;

Conditional inclusion of column cells based on value in another column?

I was wondering if something like the following is possible -- I've looked through the forums and Numbers user guide but can't figure it out:
Suppose I have a column A of sales figures, and columns B and C which basically have different attributes (say, color (yellow or green), size (small or large), and material (cotton or polyester)).
I want to run basic statistics on various combinations: e.g. all yellow items regardless of size, all green cotton items regardless of size, all large yellow items regardless of material, etc.
I want to be able to specify something like this:
'Compute the average of every cell in column A where column B=="green" and column C=="large"'
Is there a good way to go about doing this? Would I want to attack the problem using categories, sorting, and multiple tables? Or is there a way to conditionally include cell values from a range based on the value of that row's cell in another column?
Thanks for any help.

All I can think of to solve the quartile and median functions is to have another table of the same size as your original table that gets populated with just the items that match. Then you can do the quartile and median (and average) on that table. It's a one-at-a-time affair; you can only do one selection of size, color, and/or material at a time but you can get the median, mean, and quartiles of it. Of course, you could have multiple copies of this second table if you want to do more than one comparison at a time.
In the attached file, unhide the hidden rows in Table 2 to see the formulas that do all the work.

PARTITION BY ? Return an ID based on the minimum value of another column

Hi guys
I want to return the ID column of a row, where 2 other columns = a set value, and a 3rd column has the minimum value matching the other criteria.
so in effect :
with t as (
select 1 dst_id, 'abc' dst_title, 1 edition_from, 1 media_item from dual
union all
select 2 dst_id, 'abc' dst_title, 1 edition_from, 2 media_item from dual
union all
select 3 dst_id, 'abc' dst_title, 2 edition_from, 1 media_item from dual
union all
select 4 dst_id, 'abc' dst_title, 2 edition_from, 2 media_item from dual
union all
select 5 dst_id, 'def' dst_title, 1 edition_from, 1 media_item from dual
union all
select 6 dst_id, 'def' dst_title, 1 edition_from, 2 media_item from dual
select dst_id
from t
where dst_title = 'abc'
and edition_from = 1
and media_item = minimum value of media item using above where clauseWould return dst_id = 1 because it has the minimum media item value of 1 where dst_title = abc and edition_from = 1
Can this be done in 1 query ? I've been trying it using partition by and over dst_title, edition_from but that doesn't work.
I'm currently doing it using a sub query or 2 queries, but thought there must be a way to do it in one ?
Thanks all

Pop-up menu in one column determines the value in another. How?

I'm setting up a company report, and one column has a pop-up menu. I want the cell in another column to automatically enter a certain value depending on which option is selected in that pop-up menu. How is that done?

m,
You can use any of the functions that look for a match in one column and pull data from another. As a class, they're called Lookup functions. I wouldn't plan on having your design survive an export to Excel, so you should consider who will be using your work and what platform they will have available.

Search one column for value in another column

Hello,
I am trying to take the whole value from one column, and see if that string appears anywhere in another colmn. So if one row in one column has the value "cat", I want to see if that string appears anywhere in any row in another column: so a row with the value "The cat sat on the mat" would return true.
I have tried:
select term from pic_lib_keywords, csv
where contains (csv.nhm_field_asset_description,pic_lib_keywords.term) >0;
But I get the error:
ORA-20000: Oracle Text error:
DRG-50901: text query parser syntax error on line 1, column 32
20000. 00000 - "%s"
*Cause:    The stored procedure 'raise_application_error'
was called which causes this error to be generated.
*Action:   Correct the problem as described in the error message or contact
the application administrator or DBA for more information.
Can you use 2 columns in this way, or does the search term have to be a literal? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you.

i have mentioned cause_of_claim data based on below query cause_of_claim_code having different type of values. currently we are focusing on "OD" and "TP" only. thats why i have reduced unnessary columns.
select cause_of_claim_id,product_id,cause_of_claim_code,cause_of_claim_desc from cause_of_claim
where cause_of_claim_code='OD' or cause_of_claim_code='TP'
product and cause_of_claim we can join based on product_id.
in product table product_desc having

like that values...........
requirement is
where ever cause_of_claim_code ='OD' and
product_desc in (Two Wheeler,

where ever cause_of_claim_code ='TP' and
