Function Or Pseudo-column EXISTS May Be Used Inside SQL Statement
Oct 10, 2013
I am encountering error in this code.
WHILE EXISTS ( SELECT * FROM tblOrgChart WHERE fxOrgID = v_chrTempKeyDept )
LOOP
v_intDept := CAST(v_chrTempKeyDept AS NUMBER) + 1 ;
v_chrTempKeyDept := LPAD('',3 - LENGTH(CAST(v_intDept AS VARCHAR2)),'0') || CAST(v_intDept AS VARCHAR2) ;
END LOOP;
Error: PLS-00204: function or pseudo-column 'EXISTS' may be used inside a SQL statement only
I have to display a 24 hours time as an index. (00:00 - 23:00) That is easy, if the data exists.
But, if the data is not regularly exists on specific hour (the time/hours is not regular, i.e: 00:00, 01:00, 05:00, 08:00, 10:00, 11:00, 23:00), then it is OK for a TABLE, but not for a CHART.
Here is the story:
I wrote an SQL statement that can "choose" what to display respectively to the the available time. The result will be displayed on the chart: Days or Time is used for X-Axis, and the respective Value on the Y-Axis.
Example:
+ if the data consists of "days" (i.e: the last 5 days from now, 16/07/2012, 17/07/2012, 18/07/2012, 19/07/2012, 20/07/2012), then the chart will show those dates on the X-Axis.
+ if the data consists of "hours" (i.e: 1 single day, from 00:00 hour - 23:00), then the chart shows hours on the X-Axis.
If the 'hours' are not regular, means: there is no data on specific hours, the query result is also not regular, means: the X-Axis-value 'jumps' irregularly.
Note: the X-Axis on the chart template can be only customized for 1 single mode, example: "Days", but of course it is not going to show up properly if the query result are in "Hours". It means: I have to find the workaround on the SQL Query.
For the customer ID 123 I want to return Z1, for customer 678 I want to return S2 and for customer ID 345 I want 11
Problem is that I'm new to the concept of looping. I know how to write a function that accepts customer_id as a value write a cursor and then check IF hierarchy = 1 the return FUNCTION_CODE IF hierarchy - 2 THEN ...
but I need something more universal as some of the customers may have hierarchy function 1 and that would be the top one for him but others might have function of hierarchy 10 as top and checking all of the possibilities using if would be just stupid. So how to write something universal ? And of course if function did not find any customer_id then return null.
I have been trying to use case statements with oracle table type by really not sure how to go about it. I know it might be simple but it been giving me hard time.
Here is my Cursor:
CURSOR c_chk_style IS SELECT DISTINCT 1 FROM TABLE(CAST(I_message.ExtOfXOrderDesc_TBL(1).ExtOfXOrderSkuDesc_TBL AS "RIB_ExtOfXOrderSkuDesc_TBL")) item_diff,
[code]...
Now i know that the table type "RIB_ExtOfXOrderSkuDesc_TBL" will be always populated but the table type "RIB_ExtOfXOrderPackDesc_TBL" may not be populate and can be null. So i want to run the exists against the "RIB_ExtOfXOrderPackDesc_TBL" aliased pack_diff only if it is populated. If its null i dont want to run the exists clause.
Using a cursor and loop method records are inserted into the header and line tables. How do I code the IF statement prior to the INSert statement such that Insert if record does not exist else Update the record. If the record for insert fails in the line, the same record should be deleted from the header table as well and transaction should rollback. The Ora version used is 11.2.0.2.
CURSOR C1 IS SELECT H.* FROM rex_head_extract h WHERE TRUNC(h.create_date) BETWEEN v_begin_date AND v_end_date; FOR I IN C1 (v_begin_date, v_end_date)

I have a DML Statement inside a procedure and i use a cursor variable to get the values checked as below . I have attached my procedure not completely but the declaration part and the DML statement part.
The issue is my procedure is not inserting the records at all. It selects the values and then inserts accoringly but its not selecting because of the cursor reference R_LOC.LOCATION_GID.
when i hard code the value in the DML statemnt for the R_LOC.LOCATION_GID, the rows are inserted as expected. So i guess the way the procedure executes the value is not correct.
Modifying my select part which uses cursor variable R_LOC.LOCATION_GID under Insert statement.
select d.servprov_gid, d.depot_gid, replace(d.appointment_time,'':'') appmt_time, d.'||v_day_to_use||' DayUsed from tesco_fresh_templates t, tesco_fresh_templates_d d, location_refnum r where t.set_id= d.set_id and d.depot_gid=r.location_gid AND D.SERVPROV_GID=''R_LOC.LOCATION_GID'' and r.location_refnum_qual_gid=''TESCO.IVS SCHEDULING'' and (r.location_refnum_value=''YES'' or r.location_refnum_value=''Y'') and t.default_set=''Y''
In the follow code example, is it possible to save the seeds that I generated into a table when I call this table function without expliciting doinginsert into <some_table>select select * from table(pkg_seed.getSeed(200)); I try the automonous_transaction clause but it does not work.
--drop package pkg_seed--drop type seed_tab CREATE or replace TYPE seed_rec AS OBJECT( id number,seed number); CREATE or replace TYPE seed_tab AS TABLE OF seed_rec; CREATE or replace PACKAGE pkg_seed IS function getSeed(maxrow in number default 100) RETURN seed_tab PIPELINED;END pkg_seed;/ CREATE or replace PACKAGE BODY pkg_seed IS function getSeed(maxrow in number default 100) RETURN seed_tab PIPELINED IS cursor cur_seed(vmaxrow number) is select rownum id, floor(dbms_random.value(1,1000) ) seed from dual connect by level <= vmaxrow; l_seed cur_seed%rowtype; BEGIN open cur_seed(maxrow); LOOP FETCH cur_seed into l_seed; pipe row(seed_rec(l_seed.id,l_seed.seed)); END LOOP; RETURN; -- the function returns a single result END getSeed;END pkg_seed;/ select * from table(pkg_seed.getSeed(200));
i am trying to create table inside function where in after creating table when am trying to access the table with select statement oracle is throwing error 'Table/view doesnot exist -00942', below is the code snippet

can we place insert statement in loop inside anonymous block?
CREATE TABLE DEP(DEPTID NUMBER(5) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,DNAME VARCHAR2(10),LOCID VARCHAR2(10)); DECLARE I NUMBER(5); BEGIN I := 0; LOOP INSERT INTO DEP VALUES(&DEPTID,'&DNAME',&LOCID); I := I+1; EXIT WHEN I = 5; END LOOP; END;
DECLARE cnt number(10); BEGIN SELECT COUNT(*) INTO CNT FROM TBL_ADDRESS WHERE ADDRESS_ZIP IN (SELECT * FROM TABLE(MY_PACK.STR2TBL('46227'))); DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (cnt); END;
MY_PACK.STR2TBL() is a function which takes '|' delimited string, extracts values and returns a table of zipcodes. The function works fine and returns 46227 but the count returned is 0 instead of 280(count returned by replacing inner select with '46227').
Am calling the Function Batch to insert an update statemtnt into Batch_statement table in the DOWNLOAD_FUNC .But its failing with the error
SQL Error : ORA-14551: cannot perform a DML operation inside a query
Below Is the
FUNCTION BATCH(numTABLE_ID IN NUMBER, varSTMT IN VARCHAR2) RETURN NUMBER IS BEGIN INSERT INTO BATCH_STATEMENT(QUEUE_ID,TABLE_ID,STATEMENT,QUEUE_SEQUENCE_ID) VALUES (numQUEUE_ID,numTABLE_ID,varSTMT,1); RETURN 1;

[Code]....
My requirement is soln_test table contains 3 records ,for each record need to match member_id in the MT_MEMBERS_SCOPED for the four records in the table.. output should be 3 records in soln_test table + 4 records in SOLN_STAR_MATRIX_123456_TMP1 totally 7 records it means column to row...
if the member_id not exists in both tables it should return '0000' value.
Can I use CASE statement Inside a Oracle Report Query. I'm using Oracle Reports Builder 10g.
My Report Query looks like this,
select invh_code, invh_number, invh_date, invh_cm_code, im_description from invoice_head, invoice_det, unit_of_measurement, item_master where invd_invh_code = invh_code and im_code = invd_item_code AND (case :p_flag when 1 then (substr(invd_item_number,0,(length(invd_item_number)-4)) BETWEEN :P_V_ITM_FRM AND :P_V_ITM_TO) else 1 end) order by invh_number
:p_flag is a parameter that i pass from oracle form and based on that value (:p_flag=1) i need to include this specific condition else omit that condition.
But the CASE statement is throwing Error
ORA-00907 :Missing Right Paranthesis (case :p_flag when 1 then (substr(invd_item_number,0,(length(invd_item_number)-4)) ==> BETWEEN :P_V_ITM_FRM AND :P_V_ITM_TO)
SELECT rp.id r_paper_id, COUNT(*) created, COUNT( CASE WHEN a.approved_yn = 'Y'

But it fails, saying that 'single-row subquery returns more than one row' when I introduce the 'unique_users' clause. The remaining fields of the output are correct.

I need to include the above function in a plsql package. How I can declare a object type and table type in a pks file? the syntax to include the above code in a .pks and .pkb file?
I got this code snippet online when I was looking for function that returns a table type. what exactly that Exception block does? delete the table when there is an exception, otherwise return the table type?
There are 2 Oracle databases with pseudo names Remote and Local. I have a function in Remote called FUS.F_Return_10 which simply returns 10 for testing purposes, where FUS is a schema name. In Local I want to create a procedure that will call the above function. Here's the PL/SQL:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST ( V_COUNT OUT NUMBER ) AS V_FOO NUMBER(2,0); BEGIN
[Code]...
There's a Public Database Link called PER_ACC in Local. When I try to create this procedure I get: Encountered symbol "@" when expecting one of the following: .(*%&................
generates: ORA-14551: cannot perform a DML operation inside a query ORA-06512: at "SYSADM.NEW_QUANTUM_PACK", line 756 ORA-06512: at "SYSADM.NEW_QUANTUM_PACK", line 245
Unfortunately the Body is not accessible to see.The spec of the function is:
FUNCTION MAIN (mvar IN varchar2) RETURN varchar2; I read somewhere that I can call it like:
var myVar VARCHAR2; call PACK.MAIN('blah') into :myVar
But this generates: ORA-01008: not all variables bound
ROWNUM, ROWID, LEVEL, NEXTVAL, CURRVAL, USER, UID are pseudo columns in oracle. But I read in this site that SYSDATE and SYSTIMESTAMP are also pseudo columns. Is this right? how they are pseudo columns?
2. Table with the values for columns as given in table 1 ex:
col1, col2, col3, col4, col5, a , aa , 1 , x1 , p b , ab , 2 , x2 , q c , ac , 3 , x3 , r
I have to select values from table2.col1 do some processing and calculate values and store it in a table then do the same thing with col2 and so. This needs to be done for all the columns that appear in table1.For example in table 1 i have only three columns mentioned thus i have to process col1, col2 and col3 from table2. col4 and col5 will not be processed since they do not appear in the first table.
The problem is i have hundred columns in table 2 and the user can add up to hundred columns in table 1 as and when it is required.
I have created a cursor to first select column name from table 1 where variable is not null.For each value in cursor i put it in a local variable.
Second step is to select values from table2 where instead of column name i am using the local variable.But the problem is instead of choosing values from col1 the query returns the value as col1 (the value of local variable)
