• Select the columns not in the group by clause

  Hello
  
  My version of DB is 10.0.2
  
  I have query, where in I need to select two columns more but that should not be part of the group by Clause.
  
  Does perform a work around?

  ) a,
  FACM b
  where b.custnum = a.custnum 
  

  By the way

  WHERE  F.custnum =  DECODE(0,0,F.custnum,0) AND F.accnum = V.accnum
  

  can be translated into

  WHERE F.accnum = V.accnum
  

  because

  F.custnum =  DECODE(0,0,F.custnum,0)
  

  is always true
  because

  DECODE(0,0,F.custnum,0)
  

  means

  if 0=0 then F.custnum else 0
  

• Concatenation of data with the GROUP BY clause

  Hi again!
  
  Following my previous thread...

  I tried to apply the GROUP BY clause instead of preforming my query with RANK() to manage records NULL... I have a scenario where I also need to concatenate data from several lines.

  I have a T_EMP master table that stores the name and number of the emp. Each emp is required to visit some departments. This mapping is stored in the T_EMP_DEPT table. An employee can visit one or more departments. T_EMP_VISITS table stores the dates where the employee visited the services required. I need to view the report which should show when an employee all completed visits, which is the maximum date when it finished to visit all departments. If he did not visit any of the report should display date max, otherwise NULL. I was able to do using GROUP BY such proposed by Salim, but how do I show a list separated by commas of the services required for an employee in the same query.
  
  SELECT
  EMP_NO,
  NAME,
  MAX (DEPT_NO) KEEP (DENSE_RANK LAST ORDER BY VISITED) MAX_DEPT_NO,.
  MAX (VISITED) KEEP (DENSE_RANK LAST ORDER PER VISIT) VISITS_COMP
  DE)
  SELECT
  T_EMP. EMP_NO,
  NAME,
  T_EMP_DEPT. DEPT_NO,
  VISITED
  OF T_EMP
  LEFT OUTER JOIN T_EMP_DEPT
  ON T_EMP. EMP_NO = T_EMP_DEPT. EMP_NO
  LEFT OUTER JOIN T_EMP_VISITS
  ON T_EMP_DEPT. EMP_NO = T_EMP_VISITS. EMP_NO
  AND T_EMP_DEPT. DEPT_NO = T_EMP_VISITS. DEPT_NO)

  Can we do this in a single query?

  Hello

  The query you provided that stragg() use seems to work but my requirement is not in the result set. I don't know how to use stragg with
  MAX (DEPT_NO) KEEP (DENSE_RANK LAST ORDER BY VISITED) MAX_DEPT_NO,.
  MAX (VISITED) KEEP (DENSE_RANK LAST ORDER PER VISIT) VISITS_COMP
  I need more, these two columns these gives me the date when they have completed all visits. If they missed any Department then the result must be NULL in the VISITS_COMP field.

  Just add them to the SELECT clause:

  SELECT    t_emp.emp_no,
         name,
         STRAGG (t_emp_dept.dept_no)     AS deptno,
         MAX (t_emp_dept.dept_no) KEEP (DENSE_RANK LAST ORDER BY visited)
                                    AS max_dept_no,
         MAX (visited)                      AS visits_comp
  FROM             t_emp
  LEFT OUTER JOIN      t_emp_dept     ON   t_emp.emp_no     = t_emp_dept.emp_no
  LEFT OUTER JOIN      t_emp_visits     ON   t_emp_dept.emp_no     = t_emp_visits.emp_no
                               AND  t_emp_dept.dept_no = t_emp_visits.dept_no
  GROUP BY  t_emp.emp_no
  ,            name
  ;
  

  The column called visit_comp is simply the last visited, regardless of how the employee visited departments.
  If you want to have the NULL value if the employee has not yet visited all 3 departments:

  ...       CASE
            WHEN  COUNT (DISTINCT t_emp_dept.dept_no) = 3
            THEN  MAX (visited)
         END                    AS visits_comp
  

  The 'magic number' 3 is the total number of departments.
  If you want to understand the correct value of that at the time of the execution of the query, replace the code literal 3 hard with a scalar subquery.

  Note that 'KEEP MAX (x) (DENSE_RANK OVER LAST SERVICE BY x)' (where the exact same column is used as an argument and that the ORDER BY column) is just "MAX (x)".

• What's the point of having several columns in the ORDER BY clause?

  DB version: 10 gr 2
  
  When you use the ORDER BY clause, the lines are always sorted by the first column in the ORDER BY clause. So, what's the point of having several columns in the ORDER BY clause (I always see this in production codes)?
  
  For the below SQLs' schema SCOTT, result sets are always classified according to the first column ename. When I added use asc and desc of employment, does not change the result set.

  When in the second query, I sorted out only for age, you saw it there two 26 years old Keita, there was first Agayev, then Taghiyev. But if I want to get the family names in descending order when there are two very old person, then I will add the second column in the order by clause

• A question about the analytical function used with the GROUP BY clause in SHORT

  Hi all
  
  I created the following table named myenterprise
  

  CITY       STOREID    MONTH_NAME TOTAL_SALES            
  ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------------------- 
  paris      id1        January    1000                   
  paris      id1        March      7000                   
  paris      id1        April      2000                   
  paris      id2        November   2000                   
  paris      id3        January    5000                   
  london     id4        Janaury    3000                   
  london     id4        August     6000                   
  london     id5        September  500                    
  london     id5        November   1000

  If I want to find which is the total sales by city? I'll run the following query

  SELECT city, SUM(total_sales) AS TOTAL_SALES_PER_CITY
  FROM myenterprise
  GROUP BY city
  ORDER BY city, TOTAL_SALES_PER_CITY;

  that works very well and produces the expected result, i.e.

  CITY       TOTAL_SALES_PER_CITY   
  ---------- ---------------------- 
  london     10500                  
  paris      17000            

  Now in one of my books SQL (Mastering Oracle SQL) I found another method by using the SUM, but this time as an analytic function. Here's what the method of the book suggests as an alternative to the problem:

  SELECT city, 
         SUM(SUM(total_sales)) OVER (PARTITION BY city) AS TOTAL_SALES_PER_CITY
  FROM myenterprise
  GROUP BY city
  ORDER BY city, TOTAL_SALES_PER_CITY;

  I know that the analytic functions are executed after the GROUP BY clause has been transformed completely and Unlike regular aggregate functions, they return their result for each line belonging to the partitions specified in the partition clause (if there is a defined partition clause).
  
  Now my problem is that I do not understand what we have to use two functions SUM? If we only use one only, i.e.

  SELECT city, 
         SUM(total_sales) OVER (PARTITION BY city) AS TOTAL_SALES_PER_CITY
  FROM myenterprise
  GROUP BY city
  ORDER BY city, TOTAL_SALES_PER_CITY;

  This generates the following error:

  Error starting at line 2 in command:
  SELECT city, 
         SUM(total_sales) OVER (PARTITION BY city) AS TOTAL_SALES_PER_CITY
  FROM myenterprise
  GROUP BY city
  ORDER BY city, TOTAL_SALES_PER_CITY
  Error at Command Line:2 Column:11
  Error report:
  SQL Error: ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression
  00979. 00000 -  "not a GROUP BY expression"
  *Cause:    
  *Action:

  The error is generated for the line 2 column 11 which is, for the expression SUM (total_sales), well it's true that total_sales does not appear in the GROUP BY clause, but this should not be a problem, it has been used in an analytical function, so it is evaluated after the GROUP BY clause.
  
  So here's my question:
  
  Why use SUM (SUM (total_sales)) instead of SUM (total_sales)?
  
  
  Thanks in advance!
  :)
  
  
  
  
  
  In case you are interested, that's my definition of the table:

  DROP TABLE myenterprise;
  CREATE TABLE myenterprise(
  city VARCHAR2(10), 
  storeid VARCHAR2(10),
  month_name VARCHAR2(10),
  total_sales NUMBER);
  
  INSERT INTO myenterprise(city, storeid, month_name, total_sales)
    VALUES ('paris', 'id1', 'January', 1000);
  INSERT INTO myenterprise(city, storeid, month_name, total_sales)

  INSERT INTO myenterprise(city, storeid, month_name, total_sales)
    VALUES ('paris', 'id1', 'April', 2000);

• Documentation about adding column with the DEFAULT value.

  Hello
  
  http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/statements_3001.htm#i2198241
  
  < quote >
  If you add a column, then the initial value of each row in the new column is NULL unless you specify the DEFAULT clause. In this case, Oracle database updates each row in the new column with the value specified for the DEFAULT value. This update operation, in turn, triggers AFTER UPDATE triggers defined on the table.
  < quote >
  
  I am not able to understand the emphasis on the part AFTER UPDATE while the column with DEFAULT values addition triggers both BEFORE and AFTER triggers defined on UPDATE.
  
  According to the documents of 11 g
  
  http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/statements_3001.htm#i2133105
  
  n.m. (u) r only changes with the NON NULL columns, but focus on AFTER UPDATE is still there. No trigger defined on the fire of the update in this case.
  
  This insistence is intended? If not, IMO, it should be changed.
  
  Kind regards

  Hi Sissi. After further discussion, we have added some information about a change in behavior. Here is what says the next version of the doc:

  When you add a column, the initial value of each row in the new column is null.

  * If you specify the DEFAULT clause for a column NOT NULL, then the default value is stored as metadata, but the column itself is not populated with data. However, the following queries that specify the new column are rewritten so that the default value is returned in the result set.

  This optimized behavior differs from earlier versions, when as part of operation ALTER TABLE Oracle database updated every line in the newly created with the default column and then fired defined update triggers on the table. In this release, no trigger is triggered because the default value is stored only in the form of metadata.

  * If you specify the DEFAULT for a nullable column clause, then the default value is added to existing lines under this ALTER TABLE statement, and any update triggers defined on the table are activated. This behavior also means if you change a NOT NULL column with a default value to be nullable.

  Hope that helps to clarify the matter further.

  Kind regards

• doubts about adding users to the Group

  Hello
  
  I'm working on obiee10g.
  
  "Group is created in settings-> Admin-> manage the catalogue presentation groups and users.
  For each access Group privileges is assigned in 'Manage privileges'.
  Now, there's a table in the schema that is created which stores the group with assigned users.
  The table was already created by someone else.
  But we know that ' users can be added to the group using the UI of the use of OBIEE settings-> Admin-> Manage presentation catalog groups and users ' directly.
  
  I just want to know by experts, what may be the reason behind the creation of the table for the same purpose to store users?
  
  Thank you

  No it's not. Just to make it clearer,

  How it works is that, once the authentication has been made by the SSO application engine, the user id is passed to the OBI and captured in the HTTP header on the web server OBI. This user id is used as an input to extract the different parameters of the external Table(as in discussion). The web group to which the user has access to is also extracted as parameters.

  After that, the system for webgroups session variable is set with the value retrieved, and so the access control is assured.

  In a summary, the authorization part must also be implemented using the external table as well. The mapping of id of the user with the role (web group) are there in the table and recovered in the same block of initialization.

  Just to mention, web groups would still be created in OBI BAU only.

  It would be rather convenient for you in view of the current implementation, you got.

  P.S.: Please note the answers with points always a good practice :)

• CFQUERYPARAM tag does not work in the GROUP BY clause

  I get an error whenever I put a CFQUERYPARAM tag in a GROUP BY clause. I saw on another forum, someone had a similar problem with the ORDER BY clause
  
  Here's a sample of what might look like my code
  Select x, y, z of ABC
  Group of < cfqueryparam value = 'x' cfsqltype = "cf_sql_float" >
  
  Here is the error I get.
  
  Run database query error.
  [Macromedia] [Oracle JDBC Driver] [Oracle] ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression
  
  Any idea?

  Cachedwithin and cachedafter functions store the query results in the RAM of the server. This means that, even if it is cached, when you run it, you get the cached result instead of going to the database to run again. This increases the speed of course, but if the data is changed during the period of cover, you have accuracy problems.

  It creates no memory problems. In the administrator you book a certain amount of memory for the query cache. If you exceed this amount, the last request to shoot the first query on, or something like that.

  In regards to what you're trying to do on the binding of variables to your group by clause, this isn't what cfqueryparam has been designed for. It has been designed to
  where clauses (where it =
  or insert queries (insert in my values in the table (field) ())
  and things like that.

  You try to use it for anything other than what it was designed for, which explains why it does not work for you.

• adding column to the flow table

  Hi all
  
  I want to add a column to a table that is replicated to another database of flow.
  
  We are using Oracle 10 G database R4.
  
  There will be a gap of min 30 minutes to add the column to the time the database.
  
  ADR generated on both databases during the 30 min period will come out error when applying to another DB.
  
  How can I handle this case?
  
  
  Thank you
  DR

  I don't think I understand your explanation but your replication is not a multimaster while there should be no problem to add the DML.

  Leave the current rule for such DML what and just add a new temporary rule on the two specific DDL site:

  to do this, extract the name of capture and apply their queue_name respective and with dbms_streams_adm.add_table_rules on both capture and apply a site, set:

  -include_dml = false
  -include_ddl = true

  You have now 2 rules of the game of rules associated with each name of water course: for the DDL and DML. Make the change to the table on the source and check that it is done on the target. Then, remove this specific DDL of each rule set. Make sure the setting apply i 'COMMIT_SERIALIZATION' is set to Full.

  As it's done in a pipe of the SNA you shouldn't have any problems of data found ORA-1403 due the columns found on the target and worthless in the CSF or conversely, your column will be added and fill in the same order as on the source.

• PS Query - subtraction in the Group By Clause

  Hello!!!

  I have according to requirement. My PS query is seen 3 columns with the following values.

  Col1 Col2 Col3

  K1         8          2

  K1         8          2

  K1         8          2

  Requirement was to have the sum of Col3. So I modified the query using SUM (Col3) as aggregate expression. Now my output looks like

  Col1 Col2 Col3

  K1         8          6

  Now... I want the 4th column that will be the Col2 - Col3 subtraction so that the output looks like

  Col1 Col2 Col3 Col4

  K1         8          6          2

  I use VIEW and implement this but I want to know if this can be achieved using the PS query. I also tried to use expression but his does not work.

  You should be able to create an expression.

  Check the aggregation function on the output Expression property page and enter the Expression as text

  Max (col2) - Sum (Col3)

  and, of course, define the properties of Type of the Expression and the length of the appropriate values.

  Kind regards

• adding columns in the table by trigger

  Hello
  I, ve found a better way of this using triggers. I'm using Oracle XE 11.2 billion, with an interactive report and a standard form.
  APEX 4.0.2. I tried using SQLDeveloper:
  
  CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER TRIGGER1
  PRIOR TO THE UPDATE OF THE AMOUNT, TOTAL_QUANTITY ON STOCK_CONTROL
  FOR EACH LINE
  BEGIN
  TOTAL_QUANTITY_: = AMOUNT + TOTAL_QUANTITY;
  END TRIGGER1;
  
  with message
  Error (5.1): PL/SQL: statement ignored
  Error (5.1): PLS-00201: identifier 'TOTAL_QUANTITY_' must be declared
  
  I have tried variations of this but still no result, can't get the syntax right, can help anyone?
  Thank you
  Tim

  Assuming that TOTAL_QUANTITY_ is already a column in the STOCK_CONTROL table:

  : NEW. TOTAL_QUANTITY_: = : NEW. AMOUNT + : NEW. TOTAL_QUANTITY;

  Can you please let me know is a such output is possible or not

  Without seeing the underlying data, it is difficult to be sure, but I guess that this is due to later...

  (1) entry has no match messages and messages that fail don't have not populated end_system: it seems that this is the case for BatchCntrlNotify, NotifyProductCatalog and NotifyShippingOrder
  (2) input messages do not correspond to output messages or down: it seems that this is the case for OAGSyncCustPartyMaster and POConfirmation

  Only in case you released successful message that you have an end_system.
