SQL & PL/SQL :: Single-row Subquery Returns More Than One Row
Jul 30, 2010
My problem : I Wrote a package(a function), this function just return a varchar2 , but in this function I wrote a cursor , when I call this function in this manner :
I am returning the ORA-01427 after running the query below. why I am returning the error and how to address it.
select b.value , b.name, p.value ...... (case when p.value <> 'G2' then null else (select c.oldvalue from ad_changelog c where c.record_id = b.c_bpartner_id and c.ad_table_id = 291 and c.ad_column_id = 4216 ) end) as oldtradeName from c_bpartner b, zz_receipt r, zz_recp_alloc a, m_product p, ad_user us where a.c_bpartner_id = b.c_bpartner_id and a.zz_receipt_id = r.zz_receipt_id and us.ad_user_id = r.createdby and p.m_product_id = a.m_product_id
Just trying to update a table in which the sales amount is inserted when the sales amount is null.
I have
UPDATE ph2_customer_temp SET sales_amount = ( SELECT sl.sales_amount FROM PH2_CUSTOMER_TEMP pct join sales_limit sl on substr(pct.site_code,1,2) = sl.state where pct.credit_limit is null )
I can't seem to wrap my head around this problem I'm having with a query. I need to update all rows in my ps_ntsr_gf_stufile tables with the concatenated values from the ps_classes_tbl table where a.CLASS_NBR = b.CLASS_NBR. I tried to limit it to emplid from the ps_stdnt_enrl table but no luck.
UPDATE ps_ntsr_gf_stufile a SET a.CLASS_NAME = (SELECT CONCAT('SUBJECT', 'CATALOG_NBR') FROM PS_CLASS_TBL b WHERE a.CLASS_NBR = b.CLASS_NBR AND a.STRM = '1118' AND a.INSTITUTION = 'NT752') WHERE a.EMPLID IN (SELECT distinct EMPLID FROM PS_STDNT_ENRL);
/* (SELECT A.TOTAL_ALLOCATED_AMT FROM CLS_ALLOCATION_HDR@LAMS_PROD A WHERE A.APPROVAL_DATE BETWEEN BCTH.TRAN_FROM_DATE AND BCTH.TRAN_TO_DATE AND A.CUSTOMER_ID=BCTH.CUSTOMER_ID AND ALLOCATION_ID IN (SELECT ALLOCATION_ID FROM CLS_ALLOCATION_DTL@LAMS_PROD B WHERE ENTITY_TYPE='REC' AND B.ALLOCATION_ID=A.ALLOCATION_ID AND ENTITY_ID IN (SELECT RECEIPT_NO FROM CLS_RECEIPT_DTL@LAMS_PROD C WHERE B.ENTITY_ID=C.RECEIPT_NO AND RECEIPT_STATUS='A'))AND ALLOCATION_STATUS='A')*/
when i am trying to run this query i am getting an error'single row subquery returns more than one row'.
I have written the below sql select loc,(select ename from emp where emp.deptno = dept.deptno) from dept
It results in the below error.
[Error] Execution (1: 13): ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row
I have modified the SQL and got the required output select em.ename,dep.loc from (select loc,deptno from dept) dep , (select ename,deptno from emp) em where dep.deptno=em.deptno(+)
I have written the below sql to fetch all loc for emp which got executed
SELECT ENAME, (SELECT LOC FROM DEPT WHERE DEPT.DEPTNO=EMP.DEPTNO) LOC FROM EMP
But as i need all locations irrespective of any emp in the locaton so i tried to put emp side (+) which resulted in error.
What i'm trying to do is count the number of rows those sub-queries return.
As i understand it, that error happens when more than 1 row is returned.
Here is my query:
SQL> SELECT 2 a.ssg_nme, 3 b.sftw_prod_nme, 4 COUNT((SELECT db_srvr_id FROM inv.db_srvr_t WHERE node_id = (SELECT node_id FROM inv.node_t WH ERE node_loc_cde IN (5, 7, 8)))), 5 COUNT((SELECT db_srvr_id from inv.db_srvr_t WHERE row_status_cde = 2)), 6 COUNT((SELECT db_id from inv.db_t WHERE row_status_cde = 2 AND db_srvr_id = 1207)) 7 FROM 8 inv.cde_ssg_t a, inv.sftw_prod_t b, inv.db_srvr_t c, inv.appl_t d, inv.db_t e 9 WHERE d.appl_id = e.appl_id 10 AND e.db_srvr_id = c.db_srvr_id 11 AND d.appl_ssg_cde IN (6, 9) 12 GROUP BY b.sftw_prod_nme, a.ssg_nme; COUNT((SELECT db_id from inv.db_t WHERE row_status_cde = 2 AND db_srvr_id = 1207)) * ERROR at line 6: ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row
when i executr the query it gives a error message "ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row"
select distinct a.CUSTOMER_NAME, a.CUSTOMER_NUMBER,b.BILL_TO_CUSTOMER_ID,b.TRX_NUMBER,b.TRX_DATE,b.STATUS_TRX,c.ATTRIBUTE1 product,C.PAY_FROM_CUSTOMER, (SELECT(SUM(E.AMOUNT))FROM RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_GL_DIST_ALL E WHERE 1=1 GROUP BY E.CUSTOMER_TRX_ID) from ra_customers a, ra_customer_trx_all b, ar_cash_receipts_all c, ar_payment_schedules_all d, ra_cust_trx_line_gl_dist_all E where a.CUSTOMER_ID=b.CUSTOMER_TRX_ID and a.customer_id=c.PAY_FROM_CUSTOMER and c.CASH_RECEIPT_ID=d.CASH_RECEIPT_ID AND B.CUSTOMER_TRX_ID=E.CUSTOMER_TRX_ID;
I am relatively new to SQL and I am getting the below error, how to resolve this issue for my query?
ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row
nvl ( ( select add_qual_code from crm_add_qual WHERE tlc=q.tlc AND valid_since=q.valid_since AND ac_type_code=q.ac_type_code) , ' ') as add_qualification from qualification q
insert into test1 values ('12', '111') insert into test1 values ('13', '222') insert into test1 values ('14', '333')
The condition is to fetch userid. If a userid is provided and not null then it should return the userid provided. In this eg. '1TESTX01' If there is no userid provided then it should fetch userid from table tt with some condition...for simplicity I have not written condition but the inner query 'SELECT userid from tt' would return multiple records. And "userid IN" should be matched with the returning number of userids.
SELECT DISTINCT userid FROM tt a, test1 b WHERE a.aban8 = b.aban8 AND userid IN ( SELECT NVL2 ('1TESTX01', '1TESTX01', (SELECT userid FROM tt)) FROM DUAL);
This gives the error :- ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row
Even running the query :- select NVL2('1TESTX01', '1TESTX01',(select userid from tt )) from dual gives the same error.
how to write the above query conditionally. I used case & decode too but got the same error.
I have two update queries in the same Proc. One Seems to run just fine, the other I am getting this error:
ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row
The working Updates' structure is the same as the erroneous one. This works:
UPDATE P0525_STOREROOM_HOLDER H SET H.STRATIFICATION_ID = (SELECT X.STRATIFICATION_ID FROM EMISTRATIFICATION_XS X WHERE H.TOA = X.TOA AND H.STOREROOM = X.STOREROOM AND H.NSN = X.NSN AND X.ASSEMBLY = 'NO REQUIREMENT' );
This one gives me a single-row error:
UPDATE P0525_STOREROOM_HOLDER H SET H.STRATIFICATION_ID = (SELECT X.STRATIFICATION_ID FROM EMISTRATIFICATION_XS X WHERE H.TOA = X.TOA AND H.STOREROOM = X.STOREROOM AND H.NSN = X.NSN AND X.ASSEMBLY = 'ABOVE ALLOWANCE' AND H.NSN_QUANTITY > 0);
I have run a check on the data and there doesn't appear to be any duplicate values in the second update... Both Updates are supposed to be updating record sets not a single row (i.e. the stratification_id where the criteria matches...
UPDATE projectdetails SET projectdetails.projectname=(SELECT projectid FROM project WHERE projectdetails.projectname = project.projectname);
but it returns with the error: single row subquery returns more than 1 row
I tried in the same PROJECTDETAILS table with another table A3, it works fine. but not for the PROJECT table.
Below is the project table (i have 2055 rows)

If it returns a value, I want to print the value returned; If it returns no value, I would like to return a string like 'NO_DATA'.
I have already tried several things, and the last one is: ================================================================== Select NVL2(dnh.DiaNoHableData, dnh.DiaNoHableData, 'NO_DATA') From (Select Dia_No_Habil || '#' || Trim(Descripcion) DiaNoHableData From Dias_no_Habiles Where Dia_No_Habil = To_Char(To_Date('20080704', 'YYYYMMDD'), 'YYYYMMDD')) dnh; ==================================================================
The subquery returns no data, so the first query should print 'NO_DATA', but it returns nothing.
I'm getting back more than I want. I need to get the latest row in the PS_ACAD_STDNG_ACTN that has the academic standing code for students.
I thought if I max the effdt, strm, and effseq I would get back only one row. Especially effdt since a academic status is hardly ever updated on the same date.
PS_NTSR_GF_STUFILE will have multiple emplid's for students taking classes. PS_ACAD_STDNG_ACTN should have the last standing status for each student..(PRO = Probation, DIS = Dismissed).
UPDATE PS_NTSR_GF_STUFILE a SET a.NTSR_GF_ENRL_STAT = nvl(( SELECT b.GBSA_SUB1 FROM PS_GBSA_DTL b, PS_ACAD_STDNG_ACTN c WHERE c.ACAD_STNDNG_STAT = b.GBSA_VALUE
In my main query, There is a single row sub query which returns row with del_flag as N. Now in my table, there are 2 rows getting added from the incoming feed with del_flag as Y & N.
Here is my Table:
ID_1 DEL_F ID_2 ------------------------------- 16643162 Y 49696 16643162 N 16643162 16612344 Y 98888
So how can i write a single row sub-query which returns ID_2 value of a row with del_flag as N. If there is no row with DEL_F as N, it should return ID_2 value of row with DEL_F as Y.i have tried below query, but it showing the error.
select (case when min(del_f)='N' then to_number(ID_2) when min(del_f)='Y' then to_number(ID_2) end ) ID_2 from table where ID_1=?
I was reading a tutorial for analytical function and i found something like this
sum(princial) keep(dense_rank first order by d_date) over partition by (userid, alias, sec_id, flow, p_date)
How to translate this into simple queries / subquery? i am aware that analytical function are faster but i would like to know how this can translate to using query without analytical function.
I have a database containing the following after entering the following sql command
SELECT TITLES.TITLE_ID AS TITLE_ID, (PRICE * SALES), TITLES.ROYALTY_RATE AS ROYALTLY_RATE, AUTHOR_TITLES.ROYALTY_SHARE AS ROYALTY_SHARE, AUTHORS.FNAME AS FNAME, AUTHORS.LNAME AS LNAME FROM TITLES, AUTHOR_TITLES, AUTHORS WHERE TITLES.TITLE_ID = AUTHOR_TITLES.TITLE_ID AND AUTHORS.AU_ID = AUTHOR_TITLES.AU_ID
What I need to do is create a subquery and use Aggregation to list the author receiving the greatest royalties on revenue. so i used the command to get the royalties
SELECT TITLES.TITLE_ID AS TITLE_ID, (PRICE * SALES), AUTHORS.FNAME AS FNAME, AUTHORS.LNAME AS LNAME, ((PRICE * SALES) * TITLES.ROYALTY_RATE * AUTHOR_TITLES.ROYALTY_SHARE) AS ROYALTIES FROM TITLES, AUTHOR_TITLES, AUTHORS WHERE TITLES.TITLE_ID = AUTHOR_TITLES.TITLE_ID AND AUTHORS.AU_ID = AUTHOR_TITLES.AU_ID
So how do I add up the royalties values associated with each author and find the max? for example I add klee hulls's royalties from each book and get 2,123,336.32(doing it by hand on calculator) what is the sql to find the max royalties for each author? P.S the answer should be KLEE HULL with 2,123,336.32
restricting a subquery's results to the first record. If I use the following:
SELECT WU.DISCREP, M.PART, M.ETA FROM DB.MICAP M LEFT JOIN DB.WRITEUPS WU ON M.WRITEUPID=WU.WRITEUPID LEFT JOIN DB.WUC WUC ON WU.WUCID=WUC.WUCID WHERE (WU.AIRCRAFTID=205) AND (WU.CORRECTED=0) ORDER BY WU.PACER DESC, WUC.WUCCODE
But I need the highlighted line eliminated. I've tried DISTINCT subqueries in the WHERE M.WRITEUPID IN (SELECT DISTINCT... various experiments with joins, etc.
I'm facing an issue "ORA-00904". Below is the test case. Both the queries are different. I'm only focussed to find out the reason.
CREATE TABLE ACCT ( ACCTNBR NUMBER(10) ) ;
[Code].....
In first query I'm able to refer to table alias A but in second query I'm not able to refer it. The only difference is that in second query I've not used outer table at second level. Is it the desired behaviour?
