I have 2 tables with 3 common columns (Col1, col2,Primary). One common column name is primary (oracle key word).Around 2 lakhs rows to be updated and No indexes are used on these tables. I need to write an update query as shown below.
UPDATE t_tt_hours a SET a.sak_request = ( SELECT b.sak_request FROM t_requests b, co c
[Code]...
The problem I am having is that it is updating all rows even when it is pulling back a null value for b.sak_request. I've tried adding b.sak_request is not null to the select statement like this:
UPDATE t_tt_hours a SET a.sak_request = ( SELECT b.sak_request FROM t_requests b, co c WHERE b.nam_eds_tracking_id = c.id_dir_track_eds
[Code]...
but it doesn't seem to make a difference. The reason I need to do this is that the difference between where it matches with a valid (non-null) value is 396 rows vs. 12,484 rows which is too time consuming to run on my page.
I want to update salary column of emp table in a way that every value of salary column be increased by 1000, is this possible I can do this one statement only??
(Just FYI-
SQL> desc emp; Name Null? Type ----------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------
EMPNO NOT NULL NUMBER(4) ENAME VARCHAR2(10) JOB VARCHAR2(9) MGR NUMBER(4) HIREDATE DATE SAL NUMBER(7,2) COMM NUMBER(7,2) DEPTNO NUMBER(2)
I have a query that is pulling back more rows when I use the dblink than when I hit the linked database directly.
For example:
select x,y,z from mytable@dblink
returns 788,324 rows
while select x,y,z from mytable
returns 712,102 rows
It's the exact same query, with the only difference being the dblink. It's not pulling the data into a cursor or array, it's a simple, straightforward query on a remote database.
, im having this trouble to update some records, the problem is i have I have this table with some transactions and each row have a cd_cli (client code), dt_ven (date of the transaction) and a product id (cd_prod) the trouble is, i insert a row for each product in this table, then i have like this
110001YURI AGUIRREWALLMA400V44-B469,0019/9/2013210001YURI AGUIRRESU-7N-B78,0019/9/2013310001YURI AGUIRREWALLSF35V22-S78,5719/9/2013410003WILLIANWALLSA470V22-BS449,002/9/2013 but i need to update the CD_TRANS for each row with the same number like all the YURI AGUIRRE recode must have like CD_TRANS 1, and the WILLIANs CD_TRANS must be 2 and the next must be cd_trans 3, but I've tried to update the table for a lot of ways but i don't have success trying to do this, the last thing i had tried was
MERGE INTO TVEN_TEMP a USING (SELECT CD_CLI, DENSE_RANK () OVER (ORDER BY DT_VEN) new_seq_num FROM TVEN_TEMP WHERE CD_TRANS IS NULL) b ON (a.CD_CLI = b.CD_CLI)
I can get it through this query : select PARTY_ID from XXWFS_CUSTOMER_EXT group by PARTY_ID having count (PARTY_ID) > 1;
Now for the records which i got for each duplicate row i want to update the second row with a specific value.. so that duplicate rows does not exist anymore
Ex: I got party id's 12, 14, 16, 18 two times each
Now as 12 is two times.. i want to update the second row of 12 with some x value same is the case for other values like 14,16, etc
This is a surprisingly common one I've found on the web...even on devshed forum
I am updating one table from another (Updating Table A from Table B):
Table A ID, Value -- ----- 1 A 1 A 2 B
Table B ID, Value -- ----- 1 Animal 2 Box
Table A (modified) ID, Value, Name 1 A Animal 1 A Animal 2 B Box
No I need to update a new column in Table A with the value in Table B.Value where the ID's from both tables match. Problem is: When I do this I get multiple rows and hence Oracle won't let me update this column. Now, I keep reading that for these types of updates, there has to be a one-to-one relationship...
Is this true...is there anyway of telling Oracle to update wherever it finds that ID, regardless of how many duplicate ID's there are?
This is quite a frustrating problem and most of the sites that I've looked for solutions try get the query one-to-one...problem is...with my table sets it's impossible to do that - I need to update wherever the id's match (even if it return multiple rows).
I have this requirement in Oracle FORMS ver 6i where I populate some records in a table in a datablock and display them on the screen. A facility needs to be provided to the end users to select the records randomly by just entering the count of the records in a non-d/b text field. The number entered in the count field will decide how many records are to be selected randomly.
I tried using the query -
UPDATE <table a> SET <col 1> = <value 1> WHERE rowid IN (SELECT rowid FROM (SELECT * FROM <table a> ORDER BY DBMS_RANDOM.VALUE) WHERE <col 2> = <value 2>) /
which I found on the link [URL] but while compiling, the Form gives a compilation error for the ORDER by clause - i'm sure there's no syntax error in the way I have written it...
Assume that we have table Test with a column TestId and Status. This table is having 10,000 records. Now, we need to write a stored procedure that does the following:
1) Select top 10 rows whose "Status = NEW'
2) Update the selected top 10 rows with "Status = PROCESSING"
3) Return those top 10 rows.
Assuming there are hundreds of such requests coming to Oracle database, how can we make sure each request NEVER gets a duplicate record at any given point of time and how to fetch the records that have been updated individual request?
how to update the middle of plenty rows in the middle of the columns

Updating multiple ROWS with different values using single statement. Requirement is to update one column in a table with the values in the other table.
Say we have 3 tables, CORPORATION,CORPORATE PROFILE and MEMBER.
Each MEMBER has CORPORATE PROFILE which in turn is associated with CORPORATION. Now I need to update MEMBER table with CORPORATION identifier for members who belong to corporations with identifiers say 'ABC' and 'DEF'.
MEMBER table contains column 'CORPIDENTIFIER '. CORPORATEPROFILE table contains MEMBERID and CORPORATIONID,this will associate a member with the corporation. CORPORATION table contains ID and CORPIDENTIFIER.
Using the below query I am getting error,ORA-01427:single-row subquery returns more than one row
UPDATE MEMBER M SET M.CORPIDENTIFIER= (SELECT A.IDENTIFIER FROM CORPORATION A,CORPORATEPROFILE B WHERE B.CORPORATIONID=A.ID AND B.MEMBERID=M.ID AND (A.IDENTIFIER LIKE 'ABC' OR A.IDENTIFIER LIKE 'DEF'))
Sub query in the above query returns multiple rows and hence it is throwing the error.More than one members are associated with Corporations ABC and DEF. Is there any way possible to update all the rows in single query with out iterating the result set of sub query.
I would like to update the complete flag of all the rows of a table except the most recent two rows of each category.
The table has fields like: category - string, item - string, creation_date - string ('YYYYMMDDHHMI'), complete_flag - boolean, etc.
Each category does not have the same amount of records with the same creation_date so I do not want to filter by creation_date. Is there a way to accomplish this?
trying to update a column in a table which has 3 columns of 16million rows from column in another table which has 1million rows, there is no relationship between the 2 tables.
Table A has 3 columns of 16million rows, the first two columns have 16million ID numbers, the 3rd colunm is currently NULL.
Table B has 1million Numbers, i need to somehow update column 3 in table A using the numbers in table B, it doesnt how many times each of the 1 million numbers are used but i dont want it to just update every row to the same value.
I have this SQL select to give me all the nodes of a tree starting at a particular node:
SELECT tree.node_id, LEVEL depth_level FROM tree_of_nodes nodes START WITH nodes.node_id = 1000 CONNECT BY PRIOR nodes.node_id = nodes.parent_id
I need to update a column called dept_level, which is essentially the same as Oracle's LEVEL. Something like this statement is what I need, but obviously this statement doesn't work:
update tree_of_nodes set depth_level = LEVEL START WITH nodes.node_id = 1000 CONNECT BY PRIOR nodes.node_id = nodes.parent_id
I've tried inline views and other approaches and have not found a method that works.
I have one issue with the converting columns into rows.
Employee table has manager , additional manager and some other columns. If the employee has additional manager, then i need those employee record with 2 rows : 1st row - manager with other data , 2nd row - additonal manager with other data .

I've just started with the Oracle SQL and come from a heavy MS SQL background and I understand that here are some natural differences in the syntax but I'm stumped as to why the following sql represents a problem:
update MASTERMICODES t1 set t1.TEMPTA = ( select t2.TAFCODE from TA_FEATURES t2 where t2.FCODE = t1.FCODE )
It returns Error report: SQL Error: ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row 01427. 00000 - "single-row subquery returns more than one row" *Cause: *Action:
I want it to return more than one row...in fact I want it to make on all rows that have the same fcode between tables.
I am looking to build a query to update a current value in a DBA view to a new one.i.e. updating directories based on the current value:
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY 'DIRECTORY_NAME' AS 'DIRECTORY_PATH'(substr(directory_path, 1,5) + '/&dbname' {i.e. this is different for every database name }+ 'DIRECTORY_PATH'(string after /xyz/) WHERE DIRECTORY_NAME in ( select DIRECTORY_NAME from DBA_DIRECTORIES WHERE DIRECTORY_PATH like '/xyz/%' )
i.e. resulting output should be:
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY 'ABC' AS '/xyz/DBNAME/abc/def/';
(when the directory previously was 'xyz/abc/def/') i.e. basically inserting the db name into the directory.where DBNAME is a variable more directories are added frequently so therefore this needs to be a dynamic procedure to change the directories in the db.
The requirement is I have a table (TAB1), wherein I have 3 columns, ID, LID and STATUS.
The value in ID column = ID_SEQ.NEXTVAL,and LID will be either 0 or 1 and the possible values for STATUS are 'ED','CP', NULL. The ID column is not suppose to have duplicate values, but there is no check on the table for the same.
Someone has updated the existing data and ID column is containing duplicate values. Wherever LID = 0 and STATUS = NULL and if only if ID is duplicated then the ID_SEQ.NEXTVAL has to be assigned to ID field, so that there are no more duplicate values.
CREATE TABLE tab1 (id NUMBER , lid NUMBER, status VARCHAR2(10));
Existing Data ------------------ INSERT INTO tab1 VALUES (1,0, 'ED'); INSERT INTO tab1 VALUES (1,0, 'CP'); INSERT INTO tab1 VALUES (1,0, NULL); INSERT INTO tab1 VALUES (1,0, NULL); INSERT INTO tab1 VALUES (1,0, NULL); INSERT INTO tab1 VALUES (1,0, NULL);
update t_emp set TTL_FLG = CASE WHEN EXISTS (SELECT 1 from Schema1.T_STG_LW_EMP E WHERE E.Employee = Schema2.T_emp.EMPLOYEE_NUMBER AND E.JB_CODE like '%TP%' or E.JB_CODE like '%DGD%' or E.JB_CODE like '%PDD%' or E.JB_CODE like '%YND%' ) THEN 'Y' ELSE 'N' END;
I require to disable the record during the query, if the certain flag (Y) is activiate. And their as allow to display the next record without the flag (N) is editable.
