I am looking to generate results of my shop efficiencies. To do this I will need data from 3 different tables JOMAST, JODRTG and INRTGS. So I have come up with the following Query:
select jomast.fpartno AS 'Part Number',
JODRTG.foperno AS 'OP Number',
JODRTG.fopermemo As ' Description',
JODRTG.fpro_id AS 'Work Center',
jodrtg.fprod_tim AS ' Act. Production Time',
inrtgs.fuprodtime AS 'Est. Prodution Time'
from jodrtg
Left join jomast on jodrtg.fjobno = jomast.fjobno
left join inrtgs on jomast.fpartno = inrtgs.fpartno
Now what I need to do is average out the Act. Production Time. And get things down to the Part Number with all of the OP numbers for that part.
When I try and Group By JOMAST.fpartno I get an error that it cannot use and outer column. If I do Group By on the Operation number, then all Operation 10's for every part will be combined. Which, is not the desired result.
Can someone please point me in the direction I need to go to achieve my result?
It sounds like you want to have multiple rows all showing the same jodrtg.fpartno, all showing different jodrtg.fprod_tim, but all showing the average (same) value of jodrtg.fprod_tim yes?
If so, add:
AVG(jodrtg.fprod_tim) OVER(PARTITION BY jodrtg.fpartno) as avg_for_all_fprod_tim
as a column in your list of columns you're selecting.
For more info you can google PARTITION BY, but think of it like an instruction to perform a GROUP BY x, AVG(y) (or sum, max, whatever) on the data, but then put that AVG into the row data for each row where x is present..
Essentially it's the same as writing a smaller subquery of (SELECT jodrtg.fpartno, avg(jodrtg.fprod_tim) as avg_for_all_frod_tim FROM blah GROUP BY jodrtg.fpartno) and then joining it back to your main query

Cant seem to wrap my head round this problem.
I have two tables one which has the following sample values:
Second table had the following values:
What i am trying to achieve is like the following:
So you can see the first table has the modules, what year and what term.
Based on these there is a start week and and end week.
The lookup table for the start and the finish unfortunatley is in a week basis and i need the begin week to match the second tables weekNo based on the season i guess and taking the start date being Sdate from that table to match what i am looking for and then the same applies to the end date.
Match the season and the endweek with the second tables WeekNo and Edate and only bring that date in.
Hope i made a bit of sense but i am hoping the third image shows what i am look for.
I've tried CTE, Group by, Partition by, order by, min, max and got nowhere :(
Dont really want to hard code anything, so was hoping you wonderful peps can help me out !!
Many thanks in advance :)
I suspect you are trying to achieve this by using one a single join between the tables - whereas what you actually need is two separate joins:
SELECT table1.module as mod_code,
table1.season as psl_code,
table2.Sdate as ypd_sdate,
table3.Edate as ypd_edate
FROM t1 as table1
JOIN t2 as table2 ON table2.yr = table1.year AND table2.season = table1.season AND table2.weekNo = table1.BeginWeek
JOIN t2 as table3 ON table3.yr = table1.year AND table3.season = table1.season AND table3.weekNo = table1.EndWeek
I have the two tables pictured from a "city jail' DB, one is the sentences given to criminals and the other criminal information. I am trying to write a query the lists only the criminal_id, first and last names with more that one sentence (i.e. the criminal_id's that have more than one sentence_id associated with it).
I have tried this query but get an error.
select
criminals.last, sentences.criminal_id,
count(sentences.sentence_id) as 'Number of Sentences'
from
criminals
join
sentences on criminals.criminal_id = sentences.criminal_id
where
count(sentences.sentence_id) > 1
group by
criminals.last
order by
'Number of Sentences' desc;
I get this error:
An aggregate may not appear in the WHERE clause unless it is in a subquery contained in a HAVING clause or a select list, and the column being aggregated is an outer reference.
I would appreciate any suggestions on how to go about this one.
Filtering on aggregates such as the count happen in the HAVING clause, so you may use this version:
SELECT c.last, s.criminal_id, C0UNT(s.sentence_id) AS [Number of Sentences]
FROM criminals c
INNER JOIN sentences s
ON c.criminal_id = s.criminal_id
GROUP BY c.last, s.criminal_id
HAVING C0UNT(s.sentence_id) > 1
ORDER BY C0UNT(s.sentence_id) DESC;
Actually I am building a Skype like tool wherein I have to show last 10 distinct users who have logged in my web application.
I have maintained a table in sql-server where there is one field called last_active_time. So, my requirement is to sort the table by last_active_time and show all the columns of last 10 distinct users.
There is another field called WWID which uniquely identifies a user.
I am able to find the distinct WWID but not able to select the all the columns of those rows.
I am using below query for finding the distinct wwid :
select distinct(wwid) from(select top 100 * from dbo.rvpvisitors where last_active_time!='' order by last_active_time DESC) as newView;
But how do I find those distinct rows. I want to show how much time they are away fromm web apps using the diff between curr time and last active time.
I am new to sql, may be the question is naive, but struggling to get it right.
If you are using proper data types for your columns you won't need a subquery to get that result, the following query should do the trick
SELECT TOP 10
[wwid]
,MAX([last_active_time]) AS [last_active_time]
FROM [dbo].[rvpvisitors]
WHERE
[last_active_time] != ''
GROUP BY
[wwid]
ORDER BY
[last_active_time] DESC
If the column [last_active_time] is of type varchar/nvarchar (which probably is the case since you check for empty strings in the WHERE statement) you might need to use CAST or CONVERT to treat it as an actual date, and be able to use function like MIN/MAX on it.
In general I would suggest you to use proper data types for your column, if you have dates or timestamps data use the "date" or "datetime2" data types
Edit:
The query aggregates the data based on the column [wwid], and for each returns the maximum [last_active_time].
The result is then sorted and filtered.
In order to add more columns "as-is" (without aggregating them) just add them in the SELECT and GROUP BY sections.
If you need more aggregated columns add them in the SELECT with the appropriate aggregation function (MIN/MAX/SUM/etc)
I suggest you have a look at GROUP BY on W3
To know more about the "execution order" of the instruction you can have a look here
You can solve problem like this by rank ordering the results by a key and finding the last x of those items, this removes duplicates while preserving the key order.
;
WITH RankOrdered AS
(
SELECT
*,
wwidRank = ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY wwid ORDER BY last_active_time DESC )
FROM
dbo.rvpvisitors
where
last_active_time!=''
)
SELECT TOP(10) * FROM RankOrdered WHERE wwidRank = 1
If my understanding is right, below query will give the desired output.
You can have conditions according to your need.
select top 10 distinct wwid from dbo.rvpvisitors order by last_active_time desc
What's the best way to 'SELECT' a 'DISTINCT' list of a field from a table / view (with 'WHERE' criteria) and alongside that count the number of times that that field content repeats in the table / view?
In other words, I have an initial view that looks a bit like this:
I'd like a single SQL query to filter it (SELECT...WHERE...) so that we are only considering records where [ORDER COMPLETE] = False and [PERSONAL] = Null...
...and then create a distinct list of names with counts of the number of times each name appears in the previous table:
*Displaying the [ORDER COMPLETE] and [PERSONAL] fields is redundant by this point and could be dropped to simplify.
I can do the steps individually as above, but struggling to get a single query to do it all... any help appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
-Tim
This should just be the following
SELECT dbo.tblPerson.Person,
COUNT(dbo.tblPerson.Person) AS Count
FROM dbo.tblPerson
INNER JOIN dbo.tblNotifications ON dbo.tblPerson.PersonID = dbo.tblNotifications.AddresseeID
WHERE dbo.tblNotifications.Complete = 'False'
AND dbo.tblNotifications.Personal IS NULL
GROUP BY dbo.tblPerson.Person
ORDER BY COUNT(dbo.tblPerson.Person) DESC
You don't need your DISTINCT or TOP 100 PERCENT,
Here is a simplified fiddle
Well I got downvoted into oblivion (probably for displaying the full extent of my own ignorance!), but just in case someone from the future experiences the same problem as me and stumbles across this question while Googling (or whatever verb you use for "searching all digitised human knowledge" in the distant future), here's some sanitised code of the query I managed to get to work in the end - thanks to Mark Sinkinson's snippet for helping me realise the obvious...
SELECT DISTINCT TOP (100) PERCENT dbo.tblPerson.Person, COUNT(dbo.tblPerson.Person) AS CountPerson
FROM dbo.tblPerson INNER JOIN
dbo.tblNotifications ON dbo.tblPerson.PersonID = dbo.tblNotifications.AddresseeID
WHERE (dbo.tblNotifications.Complete = 'False') AND (dbo.tblNotifications.Personal IS NULL)
GROUP BY dbo.tblPerson.Person
ORDER BY CountPerson DESC
INTRODUCTION TO DATABASE TABLE BEING USED -
I am working on a “Stock Market Prices” based Database Table. My table has got the data for the following FIELDS –
ID
SYMBOL
OPEN
HIGH
LOW
CLOSE
VOLUME
VOLUME CHANGE
VOLUME CHANGE %
OPEN_INT
SECTOR
TIMESTAMP
New data gets added to the table daily “Monday to Friday”, based on the stock market price changes for that day. The current requirement is based on the VOLUME field, which shows the volume traded for a particular stock on daily basis.
REQUIREMENT –
To get the Average and Total Volume for last 10,15 and 30 Days respectively.
METHOD USED CURRENTLY -
I created these 9 SEPARATE QUERIES in order to get my desired results –
First I have created these 3 queries to take out the most recent last 10,15 and 30 dates from the current table:
qryLast10DaysStored
qryLast15DaysStored
qryLast30DaysStored
Then I have created these 3 queries for getting the respective AVERAGES:
qrySymbolAvgVolume10Days
qrySymbolAvgVolume15Days
qrySymbolAvgVolume30Days
And then I have created these 3 queries for getting the respective TOTALS:
qrySymbolTotalVolume10Days
qrySymbolTotalVolume15Days
qrySymbolTotalVolume30Days
PROBLEM BEING FACED WITH CURRENT METHOD -
Now, my problem is that I have ended up having these so many different queries, whereas I wanted to get the output into One Single Query, as shown in the Snapshot of the Excel Sheet:
http://i49.tinypic.com/256tgcp.png
SOLUTION NEEDED -
Is there some way by which I can get these required fields into ONE SINGLE QUERY, so that I do not have to look into multiple places for the required fields? Can someone please tell me how to get all these separate queries into one -
A) Either by taking out or moving the results from these separate individual queries to one.
B) Or by making a new query which calculates all these fields within itself, so that these separate individual queries are no longer needed. This would be a better solution I think.
One Clarification about Dates –
Some friend might think why I used the method of using Top 10,15 and 30 for getting the last 10,15 and 30 Date Values. Why not I just used the PC Date for getting these values? Or used something like -
("VOLUME","tbl-B", "TimeStamp BETWEEN Date() - 10 AND Date()")
The answer is that I require my query to "Read" the date from the "TIMESTAMP" Field, and then perform its calculations accordingly for LAST / MOST RECENT "10 days, 15 days, 30 days” FOR WHICH THE DATA IS AVAILABLE IN THE TABLE, WITHOUT BOTHERING WHAT THE CURRENT DATE IS. It should not depend upon the current date in any way.
If there is any better method or more efficient way to create these queries, then please enlighten.
You have separate queries to compute 10DayTotalVolume and 10DayAvgVolume. I suspect you can compute both in one query, qry10DayVolumes.
SELECT
b.SYMBOL,
Sum(b.VOLUME) AS 10DayTotalVolume,
Avg(b.VOLUME) AS 10DayAvgVolume
FROM
[tbl-B] AS b INNER JOIN
qryLast10DaysStored AS q
ON b.TIMESTAMP = q.TIMESTAMP
GROUP BY b.SYMBOL;
However, that makes me wonder whether 10DayAvgVolume can ever be anything other than 10DayTotalVolume / 10
Similar considerations apply to the 15 and 30 day values.
Ultimately, I think you want something based on a starting point like this:
SELECT
q10.SYMBOL,
q10.[10DayTotalVolume],
q10.[10DayAvgVolume],
q15.[15DayTotalVolume],
q15.[15DayAvgVolume],
q30.[30DayTotalVolume],
q30.[30DayAvgVolume]
FROM
(qry10DayVolumes AS q10
INNER JOIN qry15DayVolumes AS q15
ON q10.SYMBOL = q15.SYMBOL)
INNER JOIN qry30DayVolumes AS q30
ON q10.SYMBOL = q30.SYMBOL;
That assumes you have created qry15DayVolumes and qry30DayVolumes following the approach I suggested for qry10DayVolumes.
If you want to cut down the number of queries, you could use subqueries for each of the qry??DayVolumes saved queries, but try it this way first to make sure the logic is correct.
In that second query above, there can be a problem due to field names which start with digits. Enclose those names in square brackets or re-alias them in qry10DayVolumes, qry15DayVolumes, and qry30DayVolumes using alias names which begin with letters instead of digits.
I tested the query as written above with the "2nd Upload.mdb" you uploaded, and it ran without error from Access 2007. Here is the first row of the result set from that query:
SYMBOL 10DayTotalVolume 10DayAvgVolume 15DayTotalVolume 15DayAvgVolume 30DayTotalVolume 30DayAvgVolume
ACC-1 42909 4290.9 54892 3659.46666666667 89669 2988.96666666667
Access doesn't support most advanced SQL syntax and clauses, so this is a bit of a hack, but it works, and is fast on your small sample. You're basically running 3 queries but the Union clauses allow you to combine into one:
select
Symbol,
sum([10DayTotalVol]) as 10DayTotalV,
sum([10DayAvgVol]) as 10DayAvgV,
sum([15DayTotalVol]) as 15DayTotalV,
sum([15DayAvgVol]) as 15DayAvgV,
sum([30DayTotalVol]) as 30DayTotalV,
sum([30DayAvgVol]) as 30DayAvgV
from (
select
Symbol,
sum(volume) as 10DayTotalVol, avg(volume) as 10DayAvgVol,
0 as 15DayTotalVol, 0 as 15DayAvgVol,
0 as 30DayTotalVol, 0 as 30DayAvgVol
from
[tbl-b]
where
timestamp >= (select min(ts) from (select distinct top 10 timestamp as ts from [tbl-b] order by timestamp desc ))
group by
Symbol
UNION
select
Symbol,
0, 0,
sum(volume), avg(volume),
0, 0
from
[tbl-b]
where
timestamp >= (select min(ts) from (select distinct top 15 timestamp as ts from [tbl-b] order by timestamp desc ))
group by
Symbol
UNION
select
Symbol,
0, 0,
0, 0,
sum(volume), avg(volume)
from
[tbl-b]
where
timestamp >= (select min(ts) from (select distinct top 30 timestamp as ts from [tbl-b] order by timestamp desc ))
group by
Symbol
) s
group by
Symbol
