Count Number Of Combinations Of Country / State Invalid For Driving Licenses
May 21, 2012
I'm trying to do a count on the number of combinations of country/state codes that are invalid (in Australia) for driving licenses.
select COUNTRY_CODE, STATE_CODE, count(*) from
(select COUNTRY_CODE, STATE_CODE from CUSTOMER_TABLE
where DRIVING_LICENCE is not null
and not (COUNTRY_CODE in ('AUST') AND STATE_CODE in ('VIC', 'NSW', 'SA', 'QLD', 'NT', 'TAS', 'WA', 'ACT')))
group by COUNTRY_CODE, STATE_CODE
The output is okay...for example I get these results:
INTINT
NZSI
NZINT
AUSTINT
NZNSW
NZ <null>
However, what I am missing is the combination of "AUST" & <null> for country/state respectively. Am I writing the code correctly?
The function is supposed to tell whether numbers stored as a string value evaluates to a date.I copied into an SQL windown in PL/SQL Developer and typed "commit;" after and then tried to view the results as I posted below to make sure the function worked.
However, I get an ora-06575 Package or Function GETDATE is in an invalid state.So would like to know first, if the code is correct? And if it is, do I need to do something else to make Developer take the code? Here is the code that gave me the error I used to try to test the function:
select GetDate ('010312', 'dd-mm-yyyy') from dual
Here is the code I used to create the function:
create or replace function GetDate (vDate varchar2, vMask varchar2) return varchar2 is
vReturnDate date; begin vReturnDate = to_date(vDate, vMask); return vReturnDate; exception when value_error then return 0; end GetDate; commit;
Find the date difference. I need to find that how many days the task is pending, if ACT_NAME field switching from 'SET PENDING%' to 'RESUME PENDING%' by using ACTIONTAKENDATETEXT field in the History table.
Example as needed: NoPendingDays = 23 (8+15)
I have attached Create table and Insert table values sample as SQL file.
So usually joining a local table and a remote table (much larger table), the best practice is using a /*+ DRIVING_SITE(remote table) */ hint.
*CASE1:
INSERT INTO another_local_table SELECT /*+ DRIVING_SITE(remote_table) */ FROM local_table ,remote_table@remotedb WHERE join condition
*CASE2: However I saw this particular FOR x IN Select id From local_table l LOOP INSERT INTO another_local_table
[code]...
So far I haven't seen the explain plan of both cases since most of the tables are Global temporary tables. But in terms of the logic of the two cases and the common best practice, logically doesn't CASE1 should have a better performance?
For me, its like taking a trip to a grocery. CASE1 buys all that you need, one time, it will take you a half-day trip perhaps. However CASE2 is like quickly buying a grocery item, one at a time, for several short trips. You'll save on gas on CASE1 right.
I have come across a requirement to generate a report of all the users in Hyperion shared services console along with their previlages and also the different licences consumed by the users like Essbase, HFM, Hyperion Planning, Workforce planning etc.... The provisioning report in Shared services is not giving these details.
However, I need to have the total of no of records displayed for the sql statement and I need it in one sql statement with the one above so that I can display the total no of records along with the information for each field.
I need to count number of elements in the same catagory of an array.. For example, an array consists of {'a','b','c','c','a','d','c'} means, i need to display like a=2, b=2, c=3, d=1.
I have written the below code.
declare type array_val is varray(10) of varchar2(15000); counter number:=0; SMQ_NAME ARRAY_VAL:=ARRAY_VAL(); begin
[code]....
But its not showing exact output as my requirement..
INSERT INTO t_category m( m.service_id, m.customer_id) SELECT u.service_id, (SELECT p.add_data FROM t_add p WHERE p.service_id=u.service_id AND p.add_type='CUSTOMER_ID') FROM t_iservice u
I got this error: ORA-01722: invalid number. The problem is m.customer_id has data type NUMBER, p.add_data is VARCHAR.
I have a problem when executing the statement below querying a specific ID# in view
select * from VW_MML_LTR_MSTR where LTR_ID = 26 order by CLNT_CDE ,LTR_GRP, ltr_purp_id, LTR_CDE
I checked the data type acquired by the view and the table involved and confirmed that it was of number type.Weird thing for me is that I changed the where statement as
where LTR_ID LIKE 26 where LTR_ID != 25
Is this on the database settings? What should be done here?
select ROUND( ( SUBSTR(' m1058,1672|1090,1672|1090,1716|1058,1716 x e', 2, instr(' m1058,1672|1090,1672|1090,1716|1058,1716 x e',',',1,1)- 2) + SUBSTR(' m1058,1672|1090,1672|1090,1716|1058,1716 x e', instr(' m1058,1672|1090,1672|1090,1716|1058,1716 x e','|',1,2)+1, instr(' m1058,1672|1090,1672|1090,1716|1058,1716 x e',',',1,3) - (instr(' m1058,1672|1090,1672|1090,1716|1058,1716 x e','|',1,2)+1)) )/ 2) AS x from dual;
ct_id and limit_id is match column used for mapping.
now i want the total count of no of records in test_master in which test_master column value not exceed limit master column limit value if any one column exceeds its limit then the same row will be in my count criteria.
We are having this problem of entering duplicated inventory parts in the system which physically refers to the same part. Need to create a select query to search through the list of inventory parts to find out existing parts with similar names.
Requirement is to have a search on a specific character set and it should list even records with 50% of the characters they have entered. Characters can be anywhere in the part name with any case.
For example: input of 'abcd1234' should return the parts with the following name... A nut 234 R49SE B12 A22Hub 156 65 a2 But not... abc 89998AK 47Xbox 360Mauser K98b
I have a pkg with a procedure that uses dbms_sql to process a varchar2_table. Each record in the table is a delimited string, such as "Priority^2", or "Destination^7". The goal is to split that string on the hat and update a record in the panelfield_users table. It works perfectly if I replace the first substr/instr on :pColumn with a hardcoded number, so I know that the binding is working to that point. It is only when I try to get the latter half of the string that it chokes. I keep getting a "invalid number" error. The displayorder field is an integer field and all values will be 3 digits or less. If I pull the sql string out into an editor, it runs just lovely.
The pertinent code is: C := DBMS_SQL.OPEN_CURSOR; DBMS_SQL.PARSE(C,'update panelfield_users set displayorder = to_number(substr(:pColumn, instr(:pColumn, ''^'') + 1)) where userid = :pUID and fieldid = (select fieldid from panel_fields where upper(panelname) = upper(:pPanel) and upper(modulename) = upper(:pModule) and upper(field_displayname) = upper(substr(:pColumn, 1, instr(:pColumn, ''^'')-1)) )
I have to ask a pretty basic question (my pl/sql skills need serious work). I need to validate that a string can be converted to a number, and if it can't be, substitute something else. This works:orcl> create or replace function jw_to_number(str varchar2) return number is
2 n number; 3 begin 4 n := to_number(str); 5 return n; 6 exception when others then return 0; 7 end; 8 /
Function created.
orcl> select jw_to_number('a') from dual; JW_TO_NUMBER('A') ----------------- 0 orcl>
but of course I don't want to use WHEN OTHERS. So I tried this:orcl> create or replace function jw_to_number(str varchar2) return number is
2 n number; 3 begin 4 n := to_number(str); 5 return n; 6 exception when INVALID_NUMBER then return 0; 7 end; 8 /
Function created.
orcl> select jw_to_number('a') from dual; select jw_to_number('a') from dual * ERROR at line 1: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion error ORA-06512: at "SCOTT.JW_TO_NUMBER", line 4 orcl>I
thought this would replace the standard error handler with my own, but it doesn't. I tried redeclaring the pre-defined exception, same result.
REVNUMBER is a VARCHAR2. I've set it to increment by letter in alphabet to note the revision of a document, i.e. IR*, A, B, C... . This works beautifully.
VERNUMBER is a VARCHAR2. I've set it to increment by number but starts from null to 'IR' to 1, 2, 3...
Until now, I've been incrementing VERNUMBER without problem if, instead of IR as the first incremented value I leave the field null. The user has asked that IR display. I've tried using IR as the default but I still need to increment from there so I don't see it making a difference between that or dumping it as the first condition of the following. The problem is I get an invalid number error either way.
*'IR' = 'Initial Release'
SELECT CASE WHEN VERNUMBER IS NULL THEN 'IR' WHEN VERNUMBER = 'IR' THEN '1' ELSE REGEXP_REPLACE(VERNUMBER, '[0-9]+$', REGEXP_SUBSTR(UPPER(VERNUMBER), '[0-9]+$') + 1) END NEW_VERSION FROM DOC_INFO WHERE DOC_INFO_ID = :P3_DOC_INFO_ID
I have been asked to show the names and room number according to students who have 4 classes in a room.
select s.name, r.room_no from s, r where r.room_no = u.room_no and e.unit_code = u.unit_code GROUP BY s.name, r.room_no HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT s.stu_no) > 4;
However I get the error 'ERROR at line 4: ORA-00904: "U"."UNIT_CODE": invalid identifier'
