I have a situation where I am suppose to compare a document name from one query against query.
I have a table called tbl_doc which consists document_name column.
Another table called tbl_content which consists content_name.
And I have two select queries like
select document_name from tbl_doc
select content_name from tbl_content.
SO I need to compare document_name against content_name if they are equal then need to do a insert operation.
Thanks
You probably mean to check if a certain value exists...
IF EXISTS(
SELECT 1 FROM [tbl_doc]
JOIN [tbl_content] ON [tbl_doc].[document_name] = [tbl_content].[content_name]
WHERE [tbl_doc].[document_name] = #Name )
BEGIN
INSERT INTO [...]
(
...
)
SELECT
...
END
select document_name,content_name
from tbl_doc
join tbl_content on document_name=content_name

Can someone help me to optimize the code? I have other way to optimize it by using compute column but we can not change the schema on prod as we are not sure how many API's are used to push data into this table. This table has millions of rows and adding a non-clustered index is not helping due to the query cost and it's going for a scan.
create table testcts(
name varchar(100)
)
go
insert into testcts(
name
)
select 'VK.cts.com'
union
select 'GK.ms.com'
go
DECLARE #list varchar(100) = 'VK,GK'
select * from testcts where replace(replace(name,'.cts.com',''),'.ms.com','') in (select value from string_split(#list,','))
drop table testcts
One possibility might be to strip off the .cts.com and .ms.com subdomain/domain endings before you insert or store the name data in your table. Then, use the following query instead:
SELECT *
FROM testcts
WHERE name IN (SELECT value FROM STRING_SPLIT(#list, ','));
Now SQL Server should be able to use an index on the name column.
If your values are always suffixed by cts.com or ms.com you could add that to the search pattern:
SELECT {YourColumns} --Don't use *
FROM dbo.testcts t
JOIN (SELECT CONCAT(SS.[value], V.Suffix) AS [value]
FROM STRING_SPLIT(#list, ',') SS
CROSS APPLY (VALUES ('.cts.com'),
('.ms.com')) V (Suffix) ) L ON t.[name] = L.[value];
I have a CTE I am using to pull some data from two tables then stick in an intermediate table called cte_list, something like
with cte_list as (
select pl.col_val from prune_list pl join employees.employee emp on pl.col_val::uuid = emp.id
where pl.col_nm = 'employee_ref_id' limit 100
)
Then, I am doing an insert to move records from the cte_list to another archive table (if they don't exist) called employee_arch_test
insert into employees.employee_arch_test (
select * from employees.employee where id in (select col_val::uuid from cte_list)
and not exists (select 1 from employees.employee_arch_test where employees.employee_arch_test.id=employees.employee.id)
);
This seems to work fine. The problem is when I add another statement after, to do some deletions from the main employee table using this aforementioned cte_list - the cte_list apparently no longer exists?
SQL Error [42P01]: ERROR: relation "cte_list" does not exist
the actual delete query:
delete from employees.employee where id in (select col_val::uuid from cte_list);
Can the cte_list CTE table only be used once or something? I'm running these statements in a LOOP and I need to run the exact same calls for about 2 or 3 other tables but hit a sticking point here.
A CTE only exists for the duration of the statement of which it's a part. I gather you have an INSERT statement with the CTE preceding it:
with cte_list
as (select pl.col_val
from prune_list pl
join employees.employee emp
on pl.col_val::uuid = emp.id
where pl.col_nm = 'employee_ref_id'
limit 100
)
insert into employees.employee_arch_test
(select *
from employees.employee
where id in (select col_val::uuid from cte_list)
and not exists (select 1
from employees.employee_arch_test
where employees.employee_arch_test.id = employees.employee.id)
);
The CTE is part of the INSERT statement - it is not a separate statement by itself. It only exists for the duration of the INSERT statement.
If you need something which lasts longer your options are:
Add the same CTE to each of your following statements. Note that because data may be changing in your database each invocation of the CTE may return different data.
Create a view which performs the same operations as the CTE, then use the view in place of the CTE. Note that because data may be changing in your database each invocation of the view may return different data.
Create a temporary table to hold the data from your CTE query, then use the temporary table in place of the CTE. This has the advantage of providing a consistent set of data to all operations.
Question for you - not sure if it is feasible however.
I have a scenario where I want to SELECT a set of data from one table if it exists there then if it doesn't I want to SELECT it from a different table where I know it will exist. The issue is they have slightly different field names in some cases. I am curious if a CASE clause would be the best way to do this?
i.e.:
SELECT example1,
example1a
FROM database 1 (if it exists)
if not SELECT from database 2 (where it will exist)
If this is column by column basis you can use this most likely.
SELECT
coalesce(db1.example1,db2.example1),
coalesce(db1.example1a, db2.example1a)
FROM
database1 db1
FULL OUTER JOIN
database2 db2 on
db1.id = db2.id
If you are wanting to choose one or the other, you can use exists()
if exists(select 1 from VW_ARUN_NORM_NEW WHERE REQ_CAT LIKE '%1000%' R REQ_CAT LIKE '%2000%')
begin
SELECT TOP
MATERIAL_NUMBER,
SALES_ORDER_NUMBER,
REQ_CAT,
PLANT,
REQUESTED_DELIV_DATE
FROM VW_ARUN_NORM_NEW
WHERE
REQ_CAT LIKE '%1000%'
OR REQ_CAT LIKE '%2000%'
end
else
begin
SELECT
MATERIAL,
SALES_ORDER_NUMBER,
REQUIREMENT_CATEGORY,
PLANT_CODE,
REQUESTED_DELIVERY_DATE
FROM
VW_MRP_ALLOCATION
WHERE
REQUIREMENT_CATEGORY LIKE '%5000%'
end
ISNULL() from an OUTER JOIN of the two tables is probably the best way.
you could use if exists clause example
IF EXISTS (select example1 from database1)
begin
--do something
end
else
begin
--do another query
end
or you can check if the table exists:
(select top 1 name from sys.tables where name = 'ACTIVSOC2')
but when you select the table of the query must exists.
Hope you help
I can easily create a stored procedure in SQL Server with parameters that I use with =, LIKE and most operators. But when it comes to using IN, I don't really understand what to do, and I can't find a good site to teach me.
Example
CREATE PROCEDURE TEST
#Ids --- What type should go here?
AS BEGIN
SELECT * FROM TableA WHERE ID IN ( #Ids )
END
Is this possible and if so how ?
With SQL Server 2008 and above, you can use Table Valued Parameters.
You declare a table type and can use that as a parameter (read only) for stored procedures that can be used in IN clauses.
For the different options, I suggest reading the relevant article for your version of the excellent Arrays and Lists in SQL Server, by Erland Sommarskog.
I've done this in the past using a Split function that I add to my schema functions as described here
Then you can do the following:
CREATE PROCEDURE TEST
#Ids --- What type should go here?
AS BEGIN
SELECT * FROM TableA WHERE ID IN ( dbo.Split(#Ids, ',') )
END
Just remember that the IN function always expects a table of values as a result. SQL Server is smart enough to convert strings to this table format, so long as they are specifically written in the procedure.
Another option in your specific example though, could be to use a join. This will have a performance improvement, but often does not really meet a real-world example you need. The join version would be:
SELECT *
FROM TableA AS ta
INNER JOIN dbo.Split(#Ids, ',') AS ids
ON ta.Id = ids.items
If your asking what I think your asking, I do this every day..
WITH myData(FileNames)
AS
(
SELECT '0608751970%'
UNION ALL SELECT '1000098846%'
UNION ALL SELECT '1000101277%'
UNION ALL SELECT '1000108488%'
)
SELECT DISTINCT f.*
FROM tblFiles (nolock) f
INNER JOIN myData md
ON b.FileNames LIKE md.FileNames
Or if your doing this based on another table:
WITH myData(FileNames)
AS
(
SELECT RTRIM(FileNames) + '%'
FROM tblOldFiles
WHERE Active=1
)
SELECT DISTINCT f.*
FROM tblFiles (nolock) f
INNER JOIN myData md
ON b.FileNames LIKE md.FileNames
I have the following Query and i need the query to fetch data from SomeTable based on the filter criteria present in the Someothertable. If there is nothing present in SomeOtherTable Query should return me all the data present in SomeTable
SQL SERVER 2005
SomeOtherTable does not have any indexes or any constraint all fields are char(50)
The Following Query work fine for my requirements but it causes performance problems when i have lots of parameters.
Due to some requirement of Client, We have to keep all the Where clause data in SomeOtherTable. depending on subid data will be joined with one of the columns in SomeTable.
For example the Query can can be
SELECT
*
FROM
SomeTable
WHERE
1=1
AND
(
SomeTable.ID in (SELECT DISTINCT ID FROM SomeOtherTable WHERE Name = 'ABC' and subid = 'EF')
OR
0=(SELECT Count(1) FROM SomeOtherTable WHERE spName = 'ABC' and subid = 'EF')
)
AND
(
SomeTable.date =(SELECT date FROM SomeOtherTable WHERE Name = 'ABC' and subid = 'Date')
OR
0=(SELECT Count(1) FROM SomeOtherTable WHERE spName = 'ABC' and subid = 'Date')
)
EDIT----------------------------------------------
I think i might have to explain my problem in detail:
We have developed an ASP.net application that is used to invoke parametrize crystal reports, parameters to the crystal reports are not passed using the default crystal reports method.
In ASP.net application we have created wizards which are used to pass the parameters to the Reports, These parameters are not directly consumed by the crystal report but are consumed by the Query embedded inside the crystal report or the Stored procedure used in the Crystal report.
This is achieved using a table (SomeOtherTable) which holds parameter data as long as report is running after which the data is deleted, as such we can assume that SomeOtherTable has max 2 to 3 rows at any given point of time.
So if we look at the above query initial part of the Query can be assumed as the Report Query and the where clause is used to get the user input from the SomeOtherTable table.
So i don't think it will be useful to create indexes etc (May be i am wrong).
SomeOtherTable does not have any
indexes or any constraint all fields
are char(50)
Well, there's your problem. There's nothing you can do to a query like this which will improve its performance if you create it like this.
You need a proper primary or other candidate key designated on all of your tables. That is to say, you need at least ONE unique index on the table. You can do this by designating one or more fields as the PK, or you can add a UNIQUE constraint or index.
You need to define your fields properly. Does the field store integers? Well then, an INT field may just be a better bet than a CHAR(50).
You can't "optimize" a query that is based on an unsound schema.
Try:
SELECT
*
FROM
SomeTable
LEFT JOIN SomeOtherTable ON SomeTable.ID=SomeOtherTable.ID AND Name = 'ABC'
WHERE
1=1
AND
(
SomeOtherTable.ID IS NOT NULL
OR
0=(SELECT Count(1) FROM SomeOtherTable WHERE spName = 'ABC')
)
also put 'with (nolock)' after each table name to improve performance
The following might speed you up
SELECT *
FROM SomeTable
WHERE
SomeTable.ID in
(SELECT DISTINCT ID FROM SomeOtherTable Where Name = 'ABC')
UNION
SELECT *
FROM SomeTable
Where
NOT EXISTS (Select spName From SomeOtherTable Where spName = 'ABC')
The UNION will effectivly split this into two simpler queries which can be optiomised separately (depends very much on DBMS, table size etc whether this will actually improve performance -- but its always worth a try).
The "EXISTS" key word is more efficient than the "SELECT COUNT(1)" as it will return true as soon as the first row is encountered.
Or check if the value exists in db first
And you can remove the distinct keyword in your query, it is useless here.
if EXISTS (Select spName From SomeOtherTable Where spName = 'ABC')
begin
SELECT *
FROM SomeTable
WHERE
SomeTable.ID in
(SELECT ID FROM SomeOtherTable Where Name = 'ABC')
end
else
begin
SELECT *
FROM SomeTable
end
Aloha
Try
select t.* from SomeTable t
left outer join SomeOtherTable o
on t.id = o.id
where (not exists (select id from SomeOtherTable where spname = 'adbc')
OR spname = 'adbc')
-Edoode
change all your select statements in the where part to inner jons.
the OR conditions should be union all-ed.
also make sure your indexing is ok.
sometimes it pays to have an intermediate table for temp results to which you can join to.
It seems to me that there is no need for the "1=1 AND" in your query. 1=1 will always evaluate to be true, leaving the software to evaluate the next part... why not just skip the 1=1 and evaluate the juicy part?
I am going to stick to my original Query.
