Retrieving Extra Rows

Dec 14, 2011

I have this SQL that returns the correct amount of rows which should be 2:

Select Distinct A.File_Name, A.File_Desc, A.file_location,
A.location_date, A.downloaded_date, A.downloaded_id, A.file_size,
A.days_to_request, B.File_Name, B.Act_Date, B.date_loaded
from SDT_LOG A Inner Join ACTIVITY_LOG B
On A.file_name = B.file_name
and A.downloaded_date = B.date_loaded

I need to add another field in the Select query which is B.Act_Code. When I do, I get 2 extra rows. I do not know how to make these rows distinct.

The A table's structure is along with sample data for 1st record:

CODE                                   Example of
Name               Type            1st record.            
----               -------         --------------
FILE_NAME          VARCHAR2(50)    STLMK.txt
FILE_DESC          VARCHAR2(50)    NON-RESIDENT
FILE_LOCATION      VARCHAR2(50)    L:\NonResFiles
YEAR               NUMBER(4)       2008
LOCATION_DATE      DATE            10/10/2007
DOWNLOADED_DATE    DATE         09/04/2008 9:17:00 AM
DOWNLOADED_ID      VARCHAR2(50)    Cindy
FILE_SIZE          CHAR(10)        16212
DAYS_TO_REQUEST    NUMBER(3)       60

The B table's structure is along with sample data for 1st record:

CODE                                Example of
Name               Type         1st record
----               ------       -----------
FILE_NAME          VARCHAR2(50) STLMK.txt
ACT_CODE           CHAR(2)      D
ACT_DATE           DATE         10/10/2007
ACTIVITY_ID        VARCHAR2(50) downloaded on
DATE_LOADED        DATE      09/04/2008 9:17:00 AM

The second record of activity would all be the same except Cindy would be "Jason", act_code would be an "S", activity_id would be "sent on" and then of course the dates would be changed to whenever the new information was saved within the system.

I am getting something like this (shortened of course):

CODEFile_name       Downloaded_ID      Act_Code

STLMK.txt          Cindy               D
STLMK.txt          Cindy               S
STLMK.txt          Jason               D
STLMK.txt          Jason               S

There should only be one row for Cindy with a D act_code and one row for Jason with an S act_code. For some reason, Cindy and Jason each get a row with the different act_code. I'm retrieving 4 rows instead of two when I use B.Act_Code in the SQL statement.

Cindy should have the D Act_Code because she downloaded that file name and Jason should have the S because he sent that file to someone else. Every time a file's activity changes, it is entered into the system so we can keep track of where the files are.

Cindy should have the D Act_Code because she downloaded that file name and Jason should have the S because he sent that file to someone else. Every time a file's activity changes, it is entered into the system so we can keep track of where the files are.

Also, I get the 2 extra rows when I add activity_id field to the select.

Comparing Timestamps In ORACLE

Mar 5, 2008

How to select the transactions out of the database that occurred within 70 seconds of each other. The toll_date field is a TIMESTAMP field.

Problem is, I seem to only get transactions that occurred within 70 minutes of each other. On the timestamp field I break the math down into the seconds in a day and I add 70. I then subtract that value and add that value to the timestamp and I should get anything between those values right?

SELECT Acct_ID, Ln, Tag_Rd, COUNT(*)
FROM (
SELECT T1.Account_ID Acct_ID, T1.Tag_Read Tag_Rd, T1.Revenue_Date Rev_Date, T1.Toll_Date, T1.Lane_ID, T1.Plaza, T1.Lane Ln, T2.Toll_Date, T2.Plaza, T2.Lane

JOIN Toll T2

SQL & PL/SQL :: Calculating The Difference Of Timestamps In Seconds

Jan 2, 2013

I have to create the following table. The fields Trend_Date, Price and Trend are already given. I have to calculate the field permanently and to insert the value in this permanent table.

Fields:

The field price belong to the value of a product during the trade.
The field trade_date belongs to the moment of the trade.
The field trend belongs to the future behavior of the the price. Here, the price of the present moment is compared to the following price (possible characteristics: 'UP', 'DOWN', 'STABLE').
The field permanently belongs to the time (in seconds) how long the value of the field Trend_Date (depending on the price) is still true.

For example:

Row 1: The trend in row 1 is 'UP' and it has a price of '11'. Until row 3 this remains true (the price is greater or equal to 11). In this case, the difference between row 1 and row 3 are 9801 (rounded) seconds.

Row 2: The trend in row 2 is 'DOWN' and it has a price of '12'. This remains true till to the end (the price is never greater than 12) In this case, the difference between row 2 and row 11 are 97346 (rounded) seconds. To calculate the 97346 seconds the field has to consider that between row 2 and row 11 are two days. There will be no trade between 18:00 and 07:00 o'clock. This belongs to 7 hours for each days, in seconds (2*46800) 93600.
-> 190945-93600 = 97346s

Row 6: The trend in row 6 is 'UP' and it has a price of '5'. This remains true till to the end (the price is never smaller than 5) In this case, the difference between row 6 and row 11 are 65729 (rounded) seconds. To calculate the 65729 seconds the field has to consider that between row 65729 and row 11 are one days. There will be no trade between 18:00 and 07:00 o'clock. This belongs to 7 hours for each days, in seconds (1*46800) 46800.
-> 112528-46800 = 65729s

Row 9: The trend in row 9 is 'STABLE' and it has a price of '8'. Until row 10 this remains true (the price is equal to 8 ). In this case, the difference between row 9 and row 10 is 14418 (rounded) seconds.

Row 11: Is empty because there are no values to compare.

Example Table

TRADE_DATE --PRICE --TREND --permanently
02.01.13 11:21:42,720000000--11--UP--9801
02.01.13 12:44:03,236000000--12--DOWN--97346
02.01.13 14:05:03,845000000--11--DOWN--92485

I am modifying a stored proc that i wrote a couple of years ago. The change is that i want certain inputs to accept strings of characters (comma delimited) so they can be parsed and processed in the proc. The problem is, when i pass very little data (about 50 characters) It fails saying the character sting buffer is to small.

I have setup the input as a type of a column that is a clob and i have also tried using just vahrchar2 (with no size set).

SQL & PL/SQL :: Convert Columns To Rows With Extra Hard Coded Column

I've a query that sum up data from one table. But I've to convert them into rows.

Summary query result.

Test Table creation script.

CREATE TABLE TEST_TBL

COL1 NUMBER(14,2),
COL2 NUMBER(14,2),
COL3 NUMBER(14,2),
COL4 NUMBER(14,2)
) ;

INSERT INTO TEST_TBL VALUES( 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000 ) ;

Expected result

A1 1000
A2 2000
A3 3000
A4 4000

A1, A2, A3, A4 are hard coded fixed values.

I could have done this but not a good idea in case table TEST_TBL is not a single row table but an inline query on 1,00,00,000 records with summary functions. In my table I've a summary query instead of single row table.

SELECT 'A1', COL1 FROM TEST_TBL
UNION ALL
SELECT 'A2', COL2 FROM TEST_TBL

i was juggling with the attempt to make varchar to timestamp or date..but caught with Round up /Round down)

Formula ->

A = Round down [A_TIME - A_STD]
B = Round up [A_TIME) - 10 minute + A_STD]

where

A_TIME VARCHAR2(8) N Time (Format" HH:MM AM/PM") eg "3:50 PM"
A_STD VARCHAR2(5) N Standard time (Format" HH:MM") eg "1:00"

Allowed values for A & B after round up/down = multiple of 10 ( 11:00,11:10,11:20 etc.)

SQL & PL/SQL :: Building Correlated Subquery Select Statement By Aggregating Timestamps To Months?

Jun 11, 2010

I have 3 tables, user_login_event, person and resource_viewed_event. What I want to do have a report for each month, users logged in our application and then show for each month, how many records were created in table person and how many resource views events were logged in resource_viewed_event.

Lets only worry about the timestamp fields in these tables now as I want to use them to join the tables together or at least build correlated subqueries along the months. I have tried several options, all not leading to a desired result:

Left outer join. Works but its incredibly slow:

SELECT
distinct to_char(ule.TIMESTAMP,'YYYY-MM') as "YYYY-MM",
count(distinct ule.id) as "User Logins",
count(distinct ule.user_id) as "Users logged on",
count(distinct p2.id) as "Existing Users",
count(distinct p1.id) as "New Users",
count(distinct r1.id) as "Resources created"

[code]....

Tried the same with left outer joins of temporary tables created through select statements:

select
distinct ule.month as "Month",
count(distinct p1.user_id) as "Users created",
count (ule.id) as "Logins",
count (distinct ule.user_id) as "Users logged in",
count(rv.id) as "Resource Views",
count(distinct rv.resource_id) as "Resources Viewed"

[code]....

Tried the same with left outer joins of temporary tables created through select statements:

select
distinct ule.month as "Month",
count(distinct p1.user_id) as "Users created",
count (ule.id) as "Logins",
count (distinct ule.user_id) as "Users logged in",
count(rv.id) as "Resource Views",
count(distinct rv.resource_id) as "Resources Viewed"

[code]....

another approach is to create my own temporary tables using select statements and create fixed Month values which I can use to directly link the sets together.

select
distinct ule.loginday as "Month",
count(distinct ule.id) as "Logins",
count(distinct ule.user_id) as "Users logged in",
count(distinct p1.user_id) as "Users created",
count(distinct p2.user_id) as "Existing users1"

[code]....

performance is OK with 2 tables but the example above takes forever to execute.

Tried an approach with union but this creates new rows for each table

SELECT DISTINCT p1.MONTH AS "Month",
COUNT(DISTINCT p1.user_id) AS "Users created",
NULL AS "Logins",
NULL AS "Users Logged in",
NULL AS "Resource views",
NULL AS "Resources viewed"
FROM (SELECT To_char(person.created_on_date, 'YYYY-MM') AS MONTH,
