Two IDs matching one causing duplicates - sql-server

I am trying to inner join however I keep getting this duplicate pop up where there are two job IDs matching one Invoice ID (inner joined with a middle table that links both).
I want to only get 1 invoice id and summing the total despite 2 job ids matching it.
Basically there is AINVOICEID (table:Invoice ) matching ABINVOICEID (table:INLines) and inside the INLines table, it contains ARJOBID that matches the JOBID in Jobs.
Select distinct sum(totalBASE) as InvoiceTotal,
DATEADD(MONTH, DATEDIFF(MONTH, 0, InvDate), 0)
from (select distinct left(JOBID,5)as JOBID
from jobs
group by JOBID
) jobs
inner join (select distinct ABINVOICEID, left(ARLJOBID,5) as arljobid
from INLines
group by ARLJOBID, ABINVOICEID
) INLines
on left(ARLJOBID,5) = left(JOBID,5)
inner join (select distinct AINVOICEID
, sum(totalBASE) as totalBASE
, InvDate
from Invoice
group by AINVOICEID, InvDate
) Invoice
on AINVOICEID = ABINVOICEID
where left(JOBID ,5)=left(ARLJOBID,5) and AINVOICEID = ABINVOICEID
and InvDate between '05/01/2022' AND '05/31/2022'
group by left(JOBID ,5), DATEADD(MONTH, DATEDIFF(MONTH, 0, InvDate), 0)

It is quite difficult to try and make sense of what you're asking without an example of the output that you're getting and what the expected output is.
However, I think you're wanting something like this:
SELECT I.AINVOICEID, SUM(I.totalBASE) AS totalBASE, InvDate
FROM Invoice I INNER JOIN
(
SELECT L.ABINVOICEID, J.JOBID
FROM INLines L INNER JOIN
Jobs J ON L.ARLJOBID = J.JOBID
GROUP BY L.ABINVOICEID, J.JOBID
) LJ ON I.AINVOICEID = L.ABINVOICEID
WHERE I.InvDate BETWEEN '05/01/2022' AND '05/31/2022'
GROUP BY I.AINVOICEID, InvDate
This is based on what your SQL query which doesn't really look like it needs to JOIN on the INLines or Jobs table because you're getting everything you need from the Invoice table in the SELECT ?
If this isn't what you're after, if you can elaborate a bit more, then the community on here should be able to better assist with your question.

Using the results of WITH clause IN where STATEMENT of main query

I am relatively new at SQL so I apologise if this is obvious but I cannot work out how to use the results of the WITH clause query in the where statement of my main query.
My with query pulls the first record for each customer and gives the sale date for that record:
WITH summary AS(
SELECT ed2.customer,ed2.saledate,
ROW_NUMBER()OVER(PARTITION BY ed2.customer
ORDER BY ed2.saledate)AS rk
FROM Filteredxportdocument ed2)
SELECT s.*
FROM summary s
WHERE s.rk=1
I need to use the date in the above query as the starting point and pull all records for each customer for their first 12 months i.e. where the sale date is between ed2.saledate AND ed2.saledate+12 months.
My main query is:
SELECT ed.totalamountincvat, ed.saledate, ed.name AS SaleRef,
ed.customer, ed.customername, comp.numberofemployees,
comp.companyuid
FROM exportdocument AS ed INNER JOIN
FilteredAccount AS comp ON ed.customer = comp.accountid
WHERE (ed.statecode = 0) AND
ed.saledate BETWEEN ed2.saledate AND DATEADD(M,12,ed2.saledate)
I am sure that I need to add the main query into the WITH clause but I cant work out where. Is anyone able to help please
Does this help?
;WITH summary AS(
SELECT ed2.customer,ed2.saledate,
ROW_NUMBER()OVER(PARTITION BY ed2.customer
ORDER BY ed2.saledate)AS rk
FROM Filteredxportdocument ed2)
SELECT ed.totalamountincvat, ed.saledate, ed.name AS SaleRef,
ed.customer, ed.customername, comp.numberofemployees,
comp.companyuid
FROM exportdocument AS ed INNER JOIN
FilteredAccount AS comp ON ed.customer = comp.accountid
OUTER APPLY (SELECT s.* FROM summary s WHERE s.rk=1) ed2
WHERE ed.statecode = 0 AND
ed.saledate BETWEEN ed2.saledate AND DATEADD(M,12,ed2.saledate)
and ed.Customer = ed2.Customer
Results of CTE are not cached or stored, so you can't reuse it.
EDIT:
Based upon your requirement that all the records from CTE should be in final result, this is a new query:
;WITH summary AS(
SELECT ed2.customer,ed2.saledate,
ROW_NUMBER()OVER(PARTITION BY ed2.customer
ORDER BY ed2.saledate)AS rk
FROM Filteredxportdocument ed2)
SELECT
ed.totalamountincvat,
ed.saledate,
ed.name AS SaleRef,
ed.customer,
ed.customername,
comp.numberofemployees,
comp.companyuid
FROM
summary ed2
left join exportdocument ed
on ed.Customer = ed2.Customer
and ed.statecode = 0
AND ed.saledate BETWEEN ed2.saledate AND DATEADD(M,12,ed2.saledate)
INNER JOIN FilteredAccount comp
ON ed.customer = comp.accountid
WHERE
s.rk=1
summary you will be able to use only once. Alternate solution is store summary into temp table and use that as many times as u want.
Something like : Select * into #temp from Summary s where s.rk=1

SQL query distict count using inner join

Need help ensuring the below query doesn't return inaccurate results.
select #billed = count(a.[counter]) from [dbo].cxitems a with (nolock)
inner join [dbo].cxitemhist b with (nolock) on a.[counter] = b.cxlink
where b.[eventtype] in ('BILLED','REBILLED')
and b.[datetime] between #begdate and #enddate
The query is "mostly" accurate as is, however there is a slight possibility that cxitemhist table could contain more than 1 "billed" record for given date range. I only need to count item as "Billed" once during given date range.
You can join on a sub query the limits you to one row for each combination of fields used for the join:
select #billed = count(a.[counter])
from [dbo].cxitems a
inner join (
select distinct cxlink
from [dbo].cxitemhist
where [eventtype] in ('BILLED','REBILLED')
and [datetime] between #begdate and #enddate
) b on a.[counter] = b.cxlink
You can also use the APPLY operator instead of a join here, but you'll have to check against your data to see which gives better performance.
If you only need to count records from the cxitems table, that have any corresponding records from the cxitemhist table, you can use the exists clause with a subquery.
select #billed = count(a.[counter]) from [dbo].cxitems a
where exists(select * from [dbo].cxitemhist b
where a.[counter] = b.cxlink
and b.[eventtype] in ('BILLED','REBILLED')
and b.[datetime] between #begdate and #enddate)
Cannot really say how this will affect performance, without specific data, though, but it should be comparably fast with your code.

SELECT Specefic Date in Tsql Query?

I have 3 tables that are joined together with this query.
One of them brings me people names , another one brings me their points and the last one brings me date time.
I select the total people score.
Also, there is a column in the 3th tables that brings me the scores' transaction Date Time. My problem is that I want to write a TSQL query with this condition:
Select the transaction date where the people score is 12,000 or more.
In my idea I should use while loop but I do not know the syntax?
This is how I would do it-
SELECT cp.FirstName
, cp.LastName
, SUM(Points) as Score
FROM ClubProfile cp
RIGHT JOIN CardTransaction ct
ON cp.ClubProfileId = ct.ClubProfileId
INNER JOIN Your3rdTable as t3
ON cp.ClubProfileId = t3.ClubProfileId
WHERE CONVERT(VARCHAR, ct.[Date Column], 101) = #your_date_param
GROUP BY
cp.FirstName
, cp.LastName
HAVING SUM(Points) >=12000
Based on your post this should be close to what you need. You need to add that 3rd table and alter this statement accordingly.
SELECT cp.FirstName
, cp.LastName
, SUM(Points) as Score
FROM [fidilio].[dbo].[ClubProfile] cp
RIGHT JOIN (
CardTransaction ct
INNER JOIN CardTransactionLog ctl
ON cp.CardTransactionLogId = ctl.CardTransactionLogId
)
ON cp.ClubProfileId = ct.ClubProfileId
GROUP BY
cp.FirstName
, cp.LastName
HAVING SUM(Points) >=12000
AND ctl.TransactionTimeStamp = #SomeDateTimeVariable
The variable #SomeDateTimeVariable has to come from someplace what is your exact time-frame criteria

Join subquery with min

I'm pulling my hair out over a subquery that I'm using to avoid about 100 duplicates (out of about 40k records). The records that are duplicated are showing up because they have 2 dates in h2.datecreated for a valid reason, so I can't just scrub the data.
I'm trying to get only the earliest date to return. The first subquery (that starts with "select distinct address_id", with the MIN) works fine on it's own...no duplicates are returned. So it would seem that the left join (or just plain join...I've tried that too) couldn't possibly see the second h2.datecreated, since it doesn't even show up in the subquery. But when I run the whole query, it's returning 2 values for some ipc.mfgid's, one with the h2.datecreated that I want, and the other one that I don't want.
I know it's got to be something really simple, or something that just isn't possible. It really seems like it should work! This is MSSQL. Thanks!

min(datecreated) as datecreated, comment
from history where comment like 'MAC: 5%' group by equipment_id, address_id, comment)
as h2 on c.address_id = h2.address_id
left join (select car.id, infport.name, carport.number, car.PCIRCUITGROUP_Id
from circuit as car (NOLOCK)

The typical approach to only getting the lowest row is one of the following. You didn't bother to specify what version of SQL Server you're using, what you want to do with ties, and I have little interest to try to work this into your complex query, so I'll show you an abstract simplification for different versions.
SQL Server 2000
SELECT x.grouping_column, x.min_column, x.other_columns ...
FROM dbo.foo AS x
INNER JOIN
(
SELECT grouping_column, min_column = MIN(min_column)
FROM dbo.foo GROUP BY grouping_column
) AS y
ON x.grouping_column = y.grouping_column
AND x.min_column = y.min_column;
SQL Server 2005+
;WITH x AS
(
SELECT grouping_column, min_column, other_columns,
rn = ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY min_column)
FROM dbo.foo
)
SELECT grouping_column, min_column, other_columns
FROM x
WHERE rn = 1;
This subqery:
select distinct address_id, equipment_id,
min(datecreated) as datecreated, comment
from history where comment like 'MAC: 5%' group by equipment_id, address_id, comment
Probably will return multiple rows because the comment is not guaranteed to be the same.
Try this instead:
CROSS APPLY (
SELECT TOP 1 H2.DateCreated, H2.Comment -- H2.Equipment_id wasn't used
FROM History H2
WHERE
H2.Comment LIKE 'MAC: 5%'
AND C.Address_ID = H2.Address_ID
ORDER BY DateCreated
) H2
Switch that to OUTER APPLY in case you want rows that don't have a matching desired history entry.

How to SELECT DISTINCT Info with TOP 1 Info and an Order By FROM the Top 1 Info

I have 2 tables, that look like:
CustomerInfo(CustomterID, CustomerName)
CustomerReviews(ReviewID, CustomerID, Review, Score)
I want to search reviews for a string and return CustomerInfo.CustomerID and CustomerInfo.CustomerName. However, I only want to show distinct CustomerID and CustomerName along with just one of their CustomerReviews.Reviews and CustomerReviews.Score. I also want to order by the CustomerReviews.Score.
I can't figure out how to do this, since a customer can leave multiple reviews, but I only want a list of customers with their highest scored review.
Any ideas?
This is the greatest-n-per-group problem that has come up dozens of times on Stack Overflow.
Here's a solution that works with a window function:
WITH CustomerCTE (
SELECT i.*, r.*, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY CustomerID ORDER BY Score DESC) AS RN
FROM CustomerInfo i
INNER JOIN CustomerReviews r ON i.CustomerID = r.CustomerID
WHERE CONTAINS(r.Review, '"search"')
)
SELECT * FROM CustomerCTE WHERE RN = 1
ORDER BY Score;
And here's a solution that works more broadly with RDBMS brands that don't support window functions:
SELECT i.*, r1.*
FROM CustomerInfo i
INNER JOIN CustomerReviews r1 ON i.CustomerID = r1.CustomerID
AND CONTAINS(r1.Review, '"search"')
LEFT OUTER JOIN CustomerReviews r2 ON i.CustomerID = r2.CustomerID
AND CONTAINS(r1.Review, '"search"')
AND (r1.Score < r2.Score OR r1.Score = r2.Score AND r1.ReviewID < r2.ReviewID)
WHERE r2.CustomerID IS NULL
ORDER BY Score;
I'm showing the CONTAINS() function because you should be using the fulltext search facility in SQL Server, not using LIKE with wildcards.
I voted for Bill Karwin's answer, but I thought I'd throw out another option.
It uses a correlated subquery, which can often incur performance problems with large data sets, so use with caution. I think the only upside is that the query is easier to immediately understand.
select *
from [CustomerReviews] r
where [ReviewID] =
(
select top 1 [ReviewID]
from [CustomerReviews] rInner
where rInner.CustomerID = r.CustomerID
order by Score desc
)
order by Score desc
I didn't add the string search filter, but that can be easily added.
I think this should do it
select ci.CustomterID, ci.CustomerName, cr.Review, cr.Score
from CustomerInfo ci inner join
(select top 1*
from CustomerReviews
where Review like '%search%'
order by Score desc) cr on ci.CustomterID = cr.CustomterID
order by cr.Score
