Using Both OrderBy And RowNum In Query

Nov 22, 2012

I tried to make my Query as simple as possible but also it contains the problem:

SELECT A.Id,A.Attachment,A.CreateDateTime,A.No
,rownum as RowNumber
FROM (
SELECT A.Id,A.Attachment,A.CreateDateTime,A.No FROM GOutgoingLetter A ,
(
SELECT B.Id, B.createdatetime as of0 FROM GOutgoingLetter B
WHERE
Exists
[code]...

when I use Both Order By And RowNum in my Query, Two columns of final Select Are Null: NO & Attachment. whereas this Columns aren't empty.when I comment each one of "ORDER BY B.of0" or ",rownum as RowNumber " everything is correct!!

SQL & PL/SQL :: Select Query With Rownum

Nov 27, 2012

I am using this as a subquery within a large select statement.

(select NAME_LAST from person_name where person_id=enc.person_id and ROWNUM = 1 order by person_name_id desc) as PatFirstName

I am getting issues when i am doing rownum=1 with order by clause, what is teh right way.

when i use rownum < 2 without order y clause it is workign fine.

I would like to use order by clause.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Distinct With Orderby In Subquery

Mar 31, 2010

The table creation and Data insertion script is attached with the message.Basically I want to sort all the data based on the order by clause and then remove duplicates from the TSKID column and get distinct TSKIDs in the same order.I have below query to sort data:

SELECT *
FROM piwingetworkitems_vd
ORDER BY profilepriority,
authdptpriority,
returnpriority ASC,
priority DESC,
effdate,
tskid

But when I add a DISTINCT to the query, it does some kind of random sort and doesn't return the data as per above ORDER BY query and ignoring the SORT order.

SELECT DISTINCT tskid
FROM (SELECT *
FROM piwingetworkitems_vd
ORDER BY profilepriority,
authdptpriority,
returnpriority ASC,
priority DESC,
effdate,
tskid)

Is there any way to select the DISTINCT taskids ordered as per requirements?

There are over 1500 records, but this query does not return any row. If i change rownum >= 100 to rownum <= 100 it returns first hundred records though... What is wrong here?

SQL & PL/SQL :: ORDER BY Clause And ROWNUM

Apr 4, 2010

When i try to execute a query, which is organised as the below example, it retrieves data..

select * from (
select col1, col2, col3, col4....coln
from TABLE_ONE left outer join TABLE_TWO
-- some conditions and group by clause
order by 1 asc
)
where rownum <=1000;

Again if I use Column alias in the ORDER BY clause col1, the query won't retrieve data.

Also If I use ORDER BY 4 instead of ORDER BY 1, the query wont return data...

select * from (
select col1, col2, col3, col4....coln
from TABLE_ONE left outer join TABLE_TWO
-- some conditions and group by clause
order by 4 asc
)
where rownum <=1000;

The whole issue revolves around the inner ORDER BY Clause and external ROWNUM condition..If I eliminate any of the two, the query works fine...I am not sure if indexes have some role to play in it...

PL/SQL :: Cast Rownum To Number (10)

Jan 25, 2013

I'm on Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0

I am working on a project where have lots of view on a different schema. For performance reasons, we create tables on those views and index them.

The application that uses these tables requires a numeric primary key of a specific length, e.g. number(10). Not all tables have a natural key that matches this requirement, so I added a rownum to the query. I had hoped that casting the rownum to a number(10) would result in the same datatype once the table is created.

e.g.
SQL> create or replace view rownum_to_number10_vw as
  2  select cast(rownum as number(10)) objectid, dummy from dual;

View created

SQL> describe rownum_to_number10_vw;
Name     Type             Nullable Default Comments
-------- ---------------- -------- ------- --------
OBJECTID NUMBER(10)       Y                        
DUMMY    VARCHAR2(1 BYTE) Y                        

SQL> perfect! Now create a table based on this view:

SQL> create table rownum_to_number10_tb as 2  select * from rownum_to_number10_vw;

Table created

SQL> describe rownum_to_number10_tb;
Name     Type             Nullable Default Comments
-------- ---------------- -------- ------- --------
OBJECTID NUMBER           Y                        
DUMMY    VARCHAR2(1 BYTE) Y                         Oracle does not pick up on the number(10) cast!

How can I force Oracle to create a column with the same datetype as the underlying query?

ps:I know that the 10 in number(10) is more like a constraint than a datatype, but the application that uses this table will create an additional column if the datatype > 10. I want to prevent that from happening...

PL/SQL :: Rownum In UNION Operator

Feb 18, 2013

I have a requirement in SQL that I have to number each row. Hence I thought of using ROWNUM. But the sql query I'm using uses UNION operator. Hence I used like this

select a,b,rownum as 'field1' from table1
union
select c,d,1 as 'field1' from table2

Will the above query solve my purpose?

Using Of ROWNUM In Insert Statement Gives Error In Oracle 11g

May 24, 2011

I have a query regarding the use of rownum inside the insert statement.

For example, I have a sample table as: sample1(aa date, bb number);

Insert

VALUES (SYSDATE, ROWNUM);

this statement is working fine in Oracle 9i but gives error in Oracle 11.2.0.1. The error is ORA-976 ,

Why this error coming in Oracle 11g and how to resolve it?

Using Rownum In PL/SQL Can Significantly Reduce Performance And Throughput Of Queries

Nov 27, 2010

Using rownum in PL/SQL can significantly reduce performance and throughput of queries.

For example,

CODEselect *
from (select ...
from ...
join ... on ...
join ... on ...
left join ... on ...
where ...
group by ...)
where rownum < 500

takes much more time on a heavy loaded db than

CODEselect Y.*
from (
select X.*, rank() over(order by ...) rnk
from (select ...
from ...
join ... on ...
join ... on ...
left join ... on ...
where ...
group by ...) X) Y
where rnk < 500

I suspect it's because Oracle optimizer goals all_rows and first_rows.

Forms :: ROWNUM Returns NULL Rows When Value Greater Than 1

Dec 9, 2011

I am trying to do a simple query where I need to return the rows from a table and treat each rown according to some rules.The query works fine, and returns all the rows, usually I have 2 rows returned. WHen I add to the query where ROWNUM = 1, I get the first row returned, but when I use when ROWNUM =2 OR ROWNUM >1, I always get null rows retured, even if I have rows in the database. Here is my query:

SELECT on_time
INTO on_time2
FROM work.work_unit
WHERE work_code = 1
AND emp_no = :entry_blk.p_emp_no
AND work_date = :entry_blk.p_work_date
WHERE ROWNUM = 2;
--RETURN NULL

I changed it to the following format, but still I get the same results, only I get data when I say when rownum = 1, i get back the first record in the query

SELECT on_time
INTO on_time2
FROM (SELECT on_time
FROM work.work_unit
WHERE work_code = 1
AND emp_no = :entry_blk.p_emp_no
AND work_date = :entry_blk.p_work_date)
WHERE ROWNUM = 2;

I can't move forward in my form until I figure out why this is not returning records

SQL & PL/SQL :: Combining Rownum And Group By Gives - Not A Group By Expression

select ROWNUM,department_id,sum(salary) from employees group by department_id

If i remove rownum, it gives the correct output. Why can't rownum be used here ?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Union Query Need To Add Extra Dummy Field To One Side Of Query

Dec 8, 2005

I have inherited a query that union alls 2 select statements, I added a further field to one of the select statements ( a date field). However I need to add another dummy field to the 2nd select statement so the union query marries up I have tried to do this by simply adding a

select
'date_on'
to add a field called date on populated by 'date_on' (the name of the column in the first query)

however when I run the union query i get the error Ora-01790 expression must have same datatype as corresponding expression.

Reports & Discoverer :: Excluding SQL Query Data When Linked With XML Query?

Apr 26, 2013

I have data in a table and another in XML file,I used SQL query to retrive the data placed on the table, and link this query with XML query that retrieves the data stored in the xml file. The data stored in the table and xml file sharing a key field, but the xml contents are less than what in the table.I want to show only the data shared between the two queries, how can I do that?

e.g.:

Table emp:

e_id | e_name | e_sal
023 | John | 6000
143 | Tom | 9000
876 | Chi | 4000
987 | Alen | 7800

XML File

<e_id>
143
876

So, I want the output to be:

e_id | e_name | e_sal | e_fee
143 | Tom | 9000 | 300
876 | Chi | 4000 | 100

SQL & PL/SQL :: Query Using DBLink Returns More Rows Than Direct Query?

Apr 6, 2010

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.

Getting Top-N Query To Work As Sub-select In Larger Query?

Mar 10, 2012

Is there a technique to getting a Top-N query to work as a sub-select in a larger query -or- is there another way to generate Top-N like results that works as a sub-select?

Background:

We have a large query that is being used to build an export from a legacy HR system to a new one. Amount the data needed in the export is the employees primary phone number.

The legacy HR system allows multiple phone numbers to be stored in a simple table structure:

SELECT emp_id, phone_type, phone_number
FROM employee_phones

emp_idphone_typephone_number
------- --------------- -------------------
46021CELL2222222222
46021HOME1111111111
46021WORK3333333333

The new HR system does allow for multiple phone numbers, however they need a primary phone number identified and stored with the employee master information. (Subsequent phone numbers get stored in alternate table.)

From a business perspective, we have decided that if they have a HOME phone in the legacy system that should be the primary in the new system, if no HOME phone, then WORK, if no WORK then CELL.

That can be represented as:

SELECT *
FROM employee_people_phones
WHERE emp_id = '46021'
ORDER BY decode(phone_type, 'HOME', 'a', 'WORK', 'b', 'CELL', 'c', 'z')

emp_idphone_typephone_number
------- --------------- -------------------
46021HOME1111111111
46021WORK2222222222
46021CELL3333333333

Or similarly with Top N concept:

SELECT *
FROM (SELECT *
FROM employee_people_phones
WHERE emp_id = '46021'
ORDER BY decode(phone_type, 'HOME', 'a', 'WORK', 'b', 'CELL', 'c', 'z')) results
WHERE ROWNUM = 1

emp_idphone_typephone_number
------- --------------- -------------------
46021HOME1111111111

Or really what I want in my export:

SELECT phone_number
FROM (SELECT phone_number
FROM employee_people_phones
WHERE emp_id = '46021'
ORDER BY decode(phone_type, 'HOME', 'a', 'WORK', 'b', 'CELL', 'c', 'z')) results
WHERE ROWNUM = 1

phone_number
-------------------
1111111111

However, when the Top-N query is added as a sub-select in a larger query using the employee id from the larger query (WHERE emp_id = export.emp_id), it fails saying that �export.emp_id� is not a valid id.

(SELECT phone_number
FROM (SELECT phone_number
FROM employee_people_phones
WHERE emp_id = export.emp_id
ORDER BY decode(phone_type, 'HOME', 'a', 'WORK', 'b', 'CELL', 'c', 'z')) results
WHERE ROWNUM = 1)

1.Any way around this? Is it possible to put a Top-N (with a WHERE clause using data from the main query) in a sub-select?

2.Any alternatives (other than Top-N) to delivering a ROWNUM=1 result with a �custom� ORDER BY statement?

Other Notes: Yes, we know we could do two queries in the data conversion first deliver the bulk data to the target table, and then update with the phone numbers. However, for multiple reasons, that is less than desirable.
