Selecting A Set Of Records From One Table

Aug 19, 2010

I'm selecting a set of records from one table, for example: ID, description and date. From this I'm only wanting the latest inserted row. I've used the max function on the date which is fine, however, there are some records that have had their description changed. This then returns two values for one ID, the max for the original description and the max for the changed description.

I'm getting:

ID |Description |Date
1 ABC 01/01/2010
2 XYZ 02/03/2010
2 XYZ1 03/05/2010

When I want:

ID |Description |Date
1 ABC 01/01/2010
2 XYZ1 03/05/2010

As ID 2 with XYZ1 Description is the very latest row for that ID.

This is an audit table so the ID appears on numerous rows as it a composite key with date.

PL/SQL :: Selecting Records From 125 Million Record Table To Insert Into Smaller Table?

Jul 17, 2013

Oracle 11gI have a large table of 125 million records - t3_universe.  This table never gets updated or altered once loaded,  but holds data that we receive from a lead company. I need to select records from this large table that fit certain demographic criteria and insert those into a smaller table - T3_Leads -  that will be updated with regard to when the lead is mailed and for other relevant information.  select records from this 125 million record table to insert into the smaller table. 

I have tried a variety of things - views, materialized views, direct insert into smaller table...I think I am probably missing other approaches. My current attempt has been to create a View using the query that selects the records as shown below.  Then use a second query that inserts into T3_Leads from this View V_Market.  This is very slow. Can I just use an Insert Into T3_Leads with this query - it did not seem to work with the WITH clause?    My Index on the large table is t3_universe_composite and includes zip_code, address_key, household_key.   

CREATE VIEW V_Market  asWITH got_pairs    AS     (         SELECT /*+ INDEX_FFS(t3_universe t3_universe_composite) */  l.zip_code, l.zip_plus_4, l.p1_givenname, l.surname, l.address, l.city, l.state, l.household_key, l.hh_type as l_hh_type, l.address_key, l.narrowband_income, l.p1_ms, l.p1_gender, l.p1_exact_age, l.p1_personkey, e.hh_type as filler_data, 1.p1_seq_no, l.p2_seq_no       ,      ROW_NUMBER () OVER ( PARTITION BY  l.address_key                                    ORDER BY      l.hh_verification_date  DESC                    ) AS r_num         FROM   t3_universe  e         JOIN   t3_universe  l  ON                l.address_key  = e.address_key             AND l.zip_code = e.zip_code           AND   l.p1_gender != e.p1_gender

PL/SQL :: Selecting Records Based On The Flag

Jun 7, 2012

I have records like the following

Program_Name Effective_Date Valid_Flag
ABCD 2/10/2012 N
ABCD 2/14/2012 N
ABCD 2/20/2012 Y
ABCD 3/01/2012 N
ABCD 3/10/2012 N

[Code]...

I have to write a select statement to to keep the first record and then pull only the records when the Valid_Flag changed. The result set should be like below.

Program_Name Effective_Date Valid_Flag
ABCD 2/10/2012 N -- I have preserved the first record
ABCD 2/20/2012 Y -- Valid_Flag chages to a Y for teh first time and so on.
ABCD 3/01/2012 N
ABCD 3/14/2012 Y
ABCD 3/25/2012 N
ABCD 4/25/2012 Y

If there is no change in the flag, I do not have to pull that record.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Selecting Correct Record From The Table

Sep 26, 2013

I have a table with following structure:

CREATE TABLE ID_comments
(
ID CHAR(10 BYTE) NOT NULL,
S_COMMENTS VARCHAR2(255 BYTE),
P_COMMENTS VARCHAR2(255 BYTE),
C_COMMENTS VARCHAR2(255 BYTE)
);

For each Id, I can have multiple records.

Below is the insert script of one of the ID:

Insert into ID_comments values ('0813654254','','JR/0813653606 single','');
Insert into ID_comments values ('0813654254','','JR/0813653606 single','');
Insert into ID_comments values ('0813654254','','JR/0813653606 SINGLE','');
Insert into ID_comments values ('0813654254','','JR','');
[code].......

Now I want to select only one record from this table for an ID, which will have "not null" values for s_comments,p_comments,c_comments columns. If for some ID , there is no "not null" row for any column, then pick up the "null" row/value for that column.

This is my table design:

How do I limit my query to show the information from REQUEST but only where the all of the wips associated between REQUEST and WIPS are not in the SHIPPING table.  For example, the SHIPPING table has all of the WIPS that have been shipped, I only want to show the REQUEST rows where all of the WIPS have not shipped.

Inserting Into A Table By Selecting Multiple Rows Into A Single Row

Jul 27, 2012

I have a flat file as source wherein I am getting values like

Comp_id, Comp_name, ISIN, column_name, column_value

The structure is like this may contain multiple records like Comp_id, Comp_name, ISIN will be same, but column_name will contain the column_name to which its corresponding column_value needs to be populated to.

E.g. of Feed File -

Comp_id, Comp_name, column_name, column_value

1,HSBC,branch_name,HSBC-DELHI
1,HSBC,branch_add,24-Lajpat Nagar
1,HSBC,branch_phone,2322322
2,HSBC,branch_name,HSBC-MUMBAI
2,HSBC,branch_add,24Andheri
2,HSBC,branch_phone,4445221
2,HSBC,branch_postalcode,400023

Target table structure

Comp_id, Comp_name, branch_name, branch_add, branch_phone, branch_postalcode

I need to insert the above data to a table by selecting data from above scenario.

Precompilers, OCI & OCCI :: Using Pointer To Structure For Selecting Multiple Rows From Table

May 11, 2010

I am working on Pro*C and i have a requirement where i need to select all the rows from a table into a c - structure variable. Since i get to know the no of rows in the table which is getting selected only at run time, i need to create a pointer variable to the structure and i'll allocate the size to it based on the count of rows in the table using malloc or calloc.I tried allocating memory using calloc and it does not show any error. But when i when the exec select statement run it shows an error.

Statements i have used:
struct common *comp;
struct common_ind *comp_i;

comp = (struct common*) calloc(rowcount, sizeof(struct common));
comp_i = (struct common_ind*) calloc(rowcount, sizeof(struct common_ind));

exec sql at db1 select * into :comp indicator :comp_i from tab1;

Error i get :

Stop Error: -2112
Stop Error: -1012
Stop Error: -1012

SQL & PL/SQL :: Oracle 10g - Update Records In Target Table Based On Records Coming In From Source

Jun 1, 2010

I am trying to update records in the target table based on the records coming in from source. For instance, if the incoming record is present in the target table I would update them in the target else I would simply insert. I have over one million records in my source while my target has 46 million records. The target table is partitioned based on calendar key. I implement this whole logic using Informatica. Looking at the informatica session log I find that the informatica code is perfectly fine but its in the update part it takes long time (more than 5 days to update one million records). find the TARGET TABLE query and the UPDATE query as below.

TARGET TABLE:
CREATE TABLE OPERATIONS.DENIAL_REGRET_FACT
(
CALENDAR_KEY INTEGER NOT NULL,
DAY_TIME_KEY INTEGER NOT NULL,
SITE_KEY NUMBER NOT NULL,
RESERVATION_AGENT_KEY INTEGER NOT NULL,
LOSS_CODE VARCHAR2(30) NOT NULL,
PROP_ID VARCHAR2(5) NOT NULL,
[code].....

SQL & PL/SQL :: Insert All Records From External Table Into Export Table

Mar 25, 2013

following is the requirement

External Table
WKSHT_FILE_EXT
wksht_line
Export Table
Wksht_export
global_idvarchar2(10)
wksht_linevarchar2(250)
[code]....

Step 1.Insert all records from the external table into the export table. Truncate the export table first

Step 2.Read in a record from the export map table

Step 3.Search through export table records looking for the key words BRANCH =. Compare the branch code with the branch code form the map table

Step 4.If a match is found mark all records in the export table for the worksheet with the global ID from the export map table as follows..The first line of a worksheet is marked by the words WKSHTS..The last line of the work sheet is marked by the words COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL..We will need to capture the line break so also mark the next line after the COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL line

Step 5.Continue with Steps 2 - 4 until all records have been processed from the export map table.

first I have to create a procedure ti insert data from external table to export table.Global id will be blank.it will be updated by the mapping table's Global Id when The EB COLUMN's data(i.e 8p,2Betc ) will match with the BRANC=NA,2Betc of the datasheet loaded from the external table.. FOLLOWING IS THE SAMPLE DATASHEET

WKSHTS AAAAA BBBBBBBBBBB ELECTRONICS INC. TIME REPORT-DATE PAGE
SORT - BR, SLSREP AEC FIELD SALES REPRESENTATIVE 16:14 09/21/12 1
BRANCH = 2B
EMPLOYEE NAME SALVAAG, GREGG Days in the Month 28
[code]....

THERE ARE 2 pages..I have to split this LONG REPORT STORED IN WKSHT_LINE COLUMN OF EXPORT TABLE to 2 records..like wise 500 pages are there means 500 records.. AND THEN FIND BRANCH= after that which two words will come i.e NA,2B etc if it will MATCH WITH MAPPING TABLE"S EB COLUMN"S DATA,THEN MAPPING TABLE's GLOBAL ID WILL BE UPDATED TO EXPORT TABLE's GLOBAL ID WHICH IS BLANK

Insert Newest Records From One Table Into Another Table

Mar 9, 2004

Trying to auto insert the newest records from one table into another Table. I have a vendor provided table that is part of my database (running Oracle 9i) so I can't change the underlying structure to it or their process stops fluxing. However, I can add a trigger to it. What I want to do is this:

When the vendor's software inserts a new row (through their own automated process) I want to insert data from that same new record into another table of my own. (where of course I can re-format it, etc., and make the data my own)

The original vendor table does not have a insertion timestamp field to work off of.What is the best way to trigger an insert off the latest inserted record? It works to replace all the records in the entire vendor table but I only want to insert one record at a time.

SQL & PL/SQL :: External Table Query (compare Number Records In File With External Table)

Jan 23, 2013

I have got a procedure that successfully creates an oracle external table and populates it with the contents of a file. This works fine until I have a situation where one of the fields is a VARCHAR2(2) and I try to insert say, a 5 character value. When this happens the record in question does not get populated in the external table (and rightly so), but I could do with working out if there is a discrepancy in the number of records in the file and the number of records that actually make it into the table so I could inform the user that there is a problem.

I have attached the code that creates the external table and populates it.

Selecting The Most Recent Value?

Sep 7, 2007

Have a table like this:

ID1ID2DATEID2Value
1121/1/20066
1241/1/2006400
1246/1/2006410
1366/1/2006100
2121/1/20077
2246/1/2007350
2247/1/2007360

I need to return 1 row for each ID1 value - and only the ID2 value of 24 and only the most recently dated record for the multiple ID2 values - query would return:

1246/1/2006410
2247/1/2007360

I have worked and worked on this and I am still stumped (part of the problem may be I am also trying to make this work in Crystal Reports but that is for another day). I need to make this work in Oracle first.
