SQL & PL/SQL :: Creating Oracle Query To Fetch Information Using PIVOT Option?
Feb 27, 2013creating Oracle SQL query to fetch the information using PIVOT option.We are populating audit table using triggers. For every update, there will be two rows into audit table, one row with all OLD values and another with all NEW values. Also every updated is uniquely identified by Sequence No. Example for phone audit is mentioned below :
CREATE TABLE test_audit_phone
(
emplid VARCHAR2(10),
seqno NUMBER,
action VARCHAR2(3),
office NUMBER,
mobile NUMBER
);
Insert some rows into table.
INSERT INTO test_audit_phone VALUES ('100',1,'OLD',1111,9999)
/
INSERT INTO test_audit_phone VALUES ('100',1,'NEW',2222,9999)
/
INSERT INTO test_audit_phone VALUES ('100',2,'OLD',2222,9999)
/
INSERT INTO test_audit_phone VALUES ('100',2,'NEW',2222,8888)
/
Table will look like the following :
SQL> SELECT * FROM sysadm.test_audit_phone ;
EMPLID SEQNO ACT OFFICE MOBILE
---------- ---------- --- ---------- ----------
100 1 OLD 1111 9999
100 1 NEW 2222 9999
100 2 OLD 2222 9999
100 2 NEW 2222 8888
Now we have to present data in different format. For each field, display OLD and NEW values in column format.
EMPLIDFIELDOLDNEW
----- ------ ---- -----
100OFFICE11112222
100MOBILE99998888
Challenges :
1) Make pivoting with old and new values
2) For each field we have to show old and new values
3)if old and new values are same, dont show in report.
Fetch All Information From Big Table For Those Key Present In Small Table

SQL & PL/SQL :: Primary And Foreign Key On Same Column And Foreign Key Index
Aug 25, 2010Create table Car
(Car_cd VARCHAR2(5),
Car_Desc VARCHAR2(50)
);
alter table Car
add constraint Car_PK primary key (Car_CD);
INSERT INTO Car (Car_Cd, Car_Desc) VALUES ('CORLA','COROLLA');
Commit;
[code]....
The requirement necessitates a new table to map car to manufacturer. This mapping table may later be expanded to contain other attributes Engine, MPG, etc to hold details specific to a car.But this is in future.
Create Table Car_Mapping_Details
(Car_Cd VARCHAR2(5),
Manufacturer_Cd VARCHAR2(5));
--Primary Key Constraint
ALTER TABLE Car_Mapping_Details
ADD CONSTRAINT Car_Mapping_Details_pk PRIMARY KEY (Car_Cd );
--Not able to create this as Car_cd is already a PK in this table and therefore has Unique Index
ALTER TABLE Car_Mapping_Details ADD CONSTRAINT Car_Mapping_Details_fk1
FOREIGN KEY (Car_Cd)REFERENCES Car (Car_Cd);
[code]....
But in this case the Car_Mapping_Details.Car_cd is itself is a primary key and therefore has Unique index.Although I was able to create foreign key constraint on Car_mapping_details.car_cd column (which is also Primary Key), I was not able to create Foreign Key Index on this column. It gives me Quote:ORA-01408: such column list already indexed.In other words, not creating foreign index for foreign key column lead to table-level lock? Or will the Unique Index in that primary key column be sufficient to avoid table-level lock?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Replacing A Foreign Key With Another
Jul 26, 2011I have an already populated table that refers to a wrong foreign key in another table. I have table abc that has the column fk_id. this column currently refers to column x_id1 in the table abc while it should refer to column x_id2 in xyz. I am trying to replace the data but I guess I miss something in the logic or the right way of doing it:
following is my trial:
create table abc
(
pk_id number(4) primary key,
abc_name varchar2(10),
fk_id number(4)
);
create table xyz
(
x_id1 number(4),
x_id2 number(4),
x_name varchar2(10)
);
commit;
insert all
into abc values (10,'ab1',1)
into abc values (11,'ab2',2)
into abc values (12,'ab3',5)
into abc values (13,'ab4',7)
into abc values (14,'ab5',9)
into xyz values (1,1,'d1')
into xyz values (2,2,'d2')
into xyz values (5,3,'d3')
into xyz values (7,4,'d4')
into xyz values (9,5,'d5')
select * from dual;
commit;
--this following select returns 5 rows
select * from abc, xyz where abc.fk_id = xyz.x_id1;
-- the following update only updates 3 rows and sets the other 2
-- to null!
update abc set fk_id = (select x_id2 from xyz where xyz.x_id1 = abc.fk_id);
commit;
select * from abc;
SQL & PL/SQL :: Not Finding The Foreign Key?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Foreign Key Constraint
Feb 3, 2012I have a parent table called dept and one child table emp which is referenced on deptno and now both have data . Now i want to truncate the dept table and i have truncated emp table after it when i am trying to truncate dept table then oracle throws a error that is-
"ORA-02266: unique/primary keys in table referenced by enabled foreign keys" ,
but when i tried to delete some records 1 by 1 then these have delete but truncate is not still working. why? if i have 10 millon records.
PL/SQL :: Foreign Key Index
Mar 13, 2013You should almost always index foreign keys because they are frequently used in joins. In addition, if you intend to delete or update unique or primary keys on the parent table, you should index the foreign keys to improve the locking of child records.what I don't understand are, I should create index on foreign key column in parent table or child table or both ?

Sep 6, 2011Is there any view in oracle which gives the foreign key mapping.
E.g.
Table DEPT has DEPTNO as PK.

I can get the information for DEPT table from R_CONSTRAINT_NAME column of all_constraints table.My requirement is to get the the which column of Emp table refers to DEPT.DEPTNO column .
SQL & PL/SQL :: Locking And Foreign Key Indexes
Sep 1, 2013Say we have an employee(id_emp) table with a primary key on id_emp. We have also some history tables emp_stuff with columns say (id_emp, dat_event, some_stuff) with primary key id_emp, dat_event.
This means that we have a unique index on (id_emp,dat_event). We also have a foreign key id_emp that references employee(id_emp). When we update id_emp on employee, we still have a lock on emp_stuff. According to this (end of the page) :
Quote:So, in short, with releases prior to Oracle Database 11g Release 1, you will want an index on the foreign key of the child table if you do any of the following:
Update the parent table primary key
Delete from the parent table
Merge into the parent table
So is id_emp in emp_stuff considered as indexed (through the unique index of the primary key) or do we have to add an explicit index
like this CREATE INDEX emp_stuff ON emp_stuff(id_emp) to avoide child table locks?
SQL & PL/SQL :: Foreign Key - Primary Key Relation
May 2, 2012I am trying to establish PK-FK relationship between 2 tables. Table 1 has VACC_ID as a primary key. Table 2 has VACC_ID and SCH_ID as the primary keys. I am trying to add VACC_ID from Table 2 as a FK to Table 1. This is the code I used
ALTER TABLE Table_1
ADD CONSTRAINT FK_VACC_ID
FOREIGN KEY (VACC_ID)
REFERENCES Table_2(VACC_ID)
I also tried to add it without writing the query and editing the Table 1. By default, I am getting 2 columns(both VACC_ID) in the local column being referenced to the 2 primary keys(VACC_ID and SCH_ID) of table 2. I also uploaded the screeshot of the error, when I run the query.
SQL & PL/SQL :: Why Are Foreign Key Not Deferral By Default

Now I want to change the deptno from 10 to 20 and 20 to 10 in dept table . So the ouput will be like
deptno| dname|dseq|

SQL & PL/SQL :: Defining Foreign Keys
Oct 7, 2010In my sql developer I have created a table. Created primary keys. Using alter table I have also created the foreign key. Now I need to add one more foreign key to the same table. Do I have to drop the existing foreign key and then create the 2 new foreign keys using the alter table condition or can I retain the existing FK and just use alter table to add another FK.
View 9 Replies View RelatedSQL & PL/SQL :: Primary Key / Foreign Key Joins
Sep 29, 2010I am working on a new project in OBIEE. I am asked to do the data modeling in the database using oracle sql developer. I have to create the joins based on the requirements. I have the tables created already. But the primary keys for few tables are not defined for few tables. PK-FK joins are also not done properly.
My questions are
(1) If I have to define the primary key for the existing tables can I do that using the alter table command or should I create the table all over again and then define it?
(2) If I have to make the changes in the existing PK-FK joins how do i go about doing that?
Advanced Replication And Foreign Keys
Sep 10, 2010I have few BDs replicated using Advanced Replication, some tables are read only (Basic Replication) and another ones are Updatable (Advanced Replication).
The infraestucture is Materialized View Replication, my trouble is, I do not know how to should treat the updatable tables that have foreign keys, I read in another FAQs that you should replicate the indexes using the same way to replicate tables (dmbs_repcat.create_master_repobject)
Which is the correct manner to treat the foreign keys with this kind of updatable snapshots,
Foreign Key Would Be Populated On Each Record / Other Would Be Null
Mar 22, 2013I have a central entity Address. I have other entities that could have many addresses (Organization, Person for eg). The relation between Organization and Address is one to many and the relation between Person and Address is also one to many.When I modelled it, I ended up having two foreign keys in Address (Organization ID and Person ID).The question that is being raised by the client is "As only one of the foreign key would be populated on each record, the other would be null". The client is not comfortable having nullable foreign keys as they won't be able to maintain integrity. One of the requirement is that No orphan records in Address. By modeling the way above, there are chances for having some orphanned records. I tried to explain that this would be controlled by the program to ensure that no orphan records would be there but their question is that what if someone goes directly and enters a record in Address table without any foreign key value (I dont know who would have an insert/update access on the tables other than the dba's).
I am trying to get some pros and cons on using the nullable foreign keys.
SQL & PL/SQL :: Add Constraint Foreign Key Reference With PK Field
Mar 6, 2013I've successfully created the below two tables (disregard my use of "char" variable type; beyond the scope of my question):
create table Test_req (
Req_ID varchar2(4) not null,
Req_Comment varchar2(50) null
);
create table Test_n_cycle (
Req_ID varchar2(4) not null,
[code].....
Then I successfully performed the two alter statements:
Alter table test_n_cycle
add constraint test_n_cycle_pk primary key (req_id, test_id);
Alter table test_req
add constraint test_req_pk primary key (req_id);
Then tried this freign key reference statement
Alter table test_n_cycle
add constraint
foreign key (req_id) references test_req (req_id)
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-00902: invalid datatype
00902. 00000 - "invalid datatype"
Is this because req_id is also defined in the Primary key definitions on these two tables, thus making the field not valid for referential constraint definition?

PL/SQL :: Possible To Maintain Primary Key And Foreign Key Relationship
Nov 16, 2012I have a requirement like below
I have 3 tables (Prospect,customer,user) and I have a contact_dtls table .
In prospect table Prospect_id is the primary like this customer_id in customer table and user_id in the user table
in the contact_dtls table I have a column contact_id and other cols.The contact_id can be from prospect_id,customer_id and user_id in other words we can tell the prospect can be a contact or the customer can be a contact and the user also can be a contact also.
Now the question is "is it possible to maintain primary key and foreign key relationship with this design that means the prospect_id,customer_id and user_id would be the foreign keys to the contact_dtls table.
How To Create Check Constraint That Act As Foreign Key
Jul 10, 2012I have table EMP & DEPT.
Can you give me sample "check" constraint so that when I enter an EMP (with status='active') without matching DEPT entry, the process will fail?
It will allow to enter EMP with status='inactive' only even if no matching DEPT entry. So foreign_key will not apply.
