analytical, where condition moved to select clause

• How can I avoid hard-coding where the internal this select clause?

  It is extremely fast, but I have to hardcode the more where clause and I obviously can't do. I know how to get around it by creating a function that takes the CUSTOMER_ID and returns the ORDER_ID for the most recent payment, and it's pretty fast, but I thought it would be interesting to see if there was a way to do this in SQL directly. I also know that better design could make the problem go away.
  
  Really appreciate it if you could take a look and let me know if it is possible to get this kind of performance without Hardcoding.
  
  Thank you

  Hi Matt,

  Something like that could be a possibility (untested)

  You can code box that using a statement in the WHERE clause:

   and NOC_MONITORAGGIO.ANNO_GESTIONE =
              case
                 when var_mese in ('03','04','05','06','07','08','09','10','11','12') then b.ANNO
                 else to_number(b.ANNO)-1

  Hello

  Create a column of formulas no database in the same block to say 'NON_ZERO.
  The formula for the column would be: SET_NON_ZERO - this function returns 1 if arar is non-zero and 0 if it is zero.

  FUNCTION SET_NON_ZERO RETURN NUMBER IS
  BEGIN
   IF :ARAR = 0 THEN
     RETURN (0);
   ELSE
     RETURN (1);
   END IF;
  END;
  

  Now you can create a column of synthesis and use the text-to-speech function 'sum' and item summarised as "NON_ZERO.

  I hope this helps.

• SQL only: WHERE Condition pulled the correct runtime of the Central "SQL" tab

  I have a requirement that seems like it should be easy to solve in SQL, but me seems to be stuck with blinders and can't see the solution.
  
  The 'problem' that I'm trying to solve is to get several reporting units to any use of the SQL even in their where clause for certain types of metrics reports. So this is the solution I am proposing that we store the sql in a central table, which, in a simplified form, would have two columns as:
  
  GroupName Varchar2 (2000)
  SQL_Filter Varchar2 (5000)
  
  
  What I want to do conceptual, it's allow the user (even if they're using MS - SQL) to
  
  
  WHERE FunctionName (GetSQL_ForGroupName)
  
  But first of all, I would tell them that this can be done in Oracle sql. However, I can't understand how to achieve this end. From what I've read so far that oracle will not do:
  
  WHERE (subquery that returns SQL)
  
  or (in SQL)
  
  WHERE VariableSubstition
  
  or
  
  WHERE FunctionName (GetSQL_ForGroupName)
  
  It seems that these things in the WHERE clause allows Oracle after only
  
  FieldName [operator]
  
  as in
  
  WHERE price > (subquery)
  
  or
  
  WHERE ID IN (Value) Function
  
  Is it possible to do a subquery (or anything else) that allows me to draw the where clause running SQL - using only SQL? I can do this with a stored procedure, but it is to say it seems to me I had start coding select specific instructions for them or code so that they could enter select statements (or joins etc.). I don't want to write a complete dynamic reporting engine. I want to do is be able to pull the sql running. This ensures that everyone is 1) with the good sql for metrics 2) by using the same sql and 3) the core sql parameters can be stored in one place instead of 3000 definitions of the various reports.
  
  I must be looking at this the wrong way, I think. The solution does NOT seem to do WHERE (pull in the SQL running)... but I was not able to find a different way of thinking. For example, WITH does not resolve as you immediately the requirement WHERE fieldname [operator] [subquery | function]. I was browsing the internet and looking through all the books SQL on Safari of O'reilly but I have not met a solution. However, I think, this issue of 'centralization of base SQL' must have been resolved several, several times previously. Why can't I find anything on it then?
  
  Brad

  You might use a pipeline function to return a TABLE object. This function accepts a parameter that contains the name of the Group (although "GetSQL_ForGroupName" is supposed to represent). The query that they deliver will then look something like this:

  SELECT column_list
  FROM   TABLE(table_function('GroupName'))
  WHERE  additional_conditions
  

  In the function, you can create the SELECT statement that channels the rows in the table with WHERE conditions pulled a table for the provided group name.

• dynamice where the Cursor For loop clause

  No, it wouldn't. Performance of:

  Hmmm, maybe you want some NVL around these statements of cases such as...

         and scheduled_date <= NVL(case when :check_value = 1 then date '2009-04-16' end,scheduled_date)
         and scheduled_date >= NVL(case when :check_value = 1 then date '2009-04-06' end,scheduled_date)

  or something like this. Otherwise the comparisons with null will just because all this to fail.

• WHERE condition in a sql statement

  Hello people,

  I have a screen with data grid where one of the columns is STATES_CODES and other VOLUMES one. Grid consists of several lines. I need to create a CUSTOM SEARCH field that will be filtering on this database.

  Unfortunately a customer wants to enter a search string with custom functions: '+' (plus) to include in the selection of the result and "-" (less) to exclude from the selection of the results. For example: "+ IT + -100". Based on this string, I need to return only the States HE and and exclude volumes with a value of 100.

  A tip how to build a query where condition, so it will be more effective as possible?

  Simple example:

  test data:

  with t (select 'IT' State, volume 90 of any union double

  Select 'IT' State, 100 volumes of all the double union

  Select 'IT' State, 100 volumes of all the double union

  Select 'OF' State, 90 volume of all the double union

  Select 'OF' State, in 100 volumes of all the double union

  Select 'OF' State, in 100 volumes of all the double union

  Select 'NL' State, 90 volume of all the double union

  Select 'NL' State, 100 volumes of all the double union

  Select 'NL' State, 100 volumes of all the double union

  Select 'FR' State, 90 volume of all the double union

  Select 'FR' State, in 100 volumes of all the double union

  Select 'FR' State, in 100 volumes of all the double union

  Select 'ARE' State, 90 volume of all the double union

  Select 'ARE' State, in 100 volumes of all the double union

  Select 'ARE' State, 100 volumes of double

  )

  Select * from t

  Search string: "+ IT + - 100".

  I thought to somehow using regular expressions REGEXP_LIKE condition, but do not know how to change the entered search string in above format as long as the regular expression.

  And if you want to be specific about the characters representing the State and the numbers represent the amount then you will need to divide them into more...

  SQL > with t (select 'IT' State, 90 volume of all the double union)
  2 Select 'IT' State, 100 volumes of all the double union
  3 select 'IT' State, 100 volumes of all the double union

  you have indexes on the column class_id not on class_no column how u would expect index to use when there is no index on the column class_no

• There is no possibility of ambiguity in the SELECT clause because any identifier in the SELECT clause must be a database column name

  Hello

  Doc Oracle says the following on the identifiers in the SELECT in PL/SQL clause: there is no possibility of ambiguity in the SELECT clause because any identifier in the SELECT clause must be a database column name.

  If we assume that only valid column identifier are allowed in the SELECT clause.

  But I tried the following:

  DECLARE

  You're right that toto is an identifier, but this isn't a column name.  (Of a subquery) column alias are not database of the names of columns either, nor are the names of the user-defined function.

  Also, there is a possibility for ambiguity even if all the names are the database column names.

  Won't the doc or did I just miss something?

  I can't say until I see the doc you're talking about.

  Oracle documentation is sometimes misleading and sometimes just plain wrong.  For each mistake outright example that I saw in the docs of Oracle, there might be 20 cases where the meaning is unclear or misleading and maybe 200 where I just read it wrong.

• How to add a where condition to seeds VO

  Hi I have a VO PoRequisitionLinesVO.Now knowledge I want to add the SQL where condition...

  How can I do this...? There is no addition of all fields... only adding a where condition clause?

  1.1 * 100
  ----------
  110
  
  Maybe it's something that I never had to deal with before, but I thought that the number format applied to results of sql, as well as the numbers you have used sql clauses.
  
  Kind regards

  Hi, Nestor,

  No.; it applies to the results and it can affect implicit conversions, but it does not apply to the SQL code.
  The period (or dot, '.') is the decimal separator in literals always digital. There is no way to change this.

  Think how confusing it would be if it applied to the SQL code. For example:

  WHERE   num_col  IN (1,2)
  

  We compare num_col values 1 or 2? He comes in, what happens if we wanted to do the opposite?

  If you really want to use the comma as the decimal separator, you may have to use strings, not numbers, and it could be much less effective.
  For example:

  SELECT  100 * TO_NUMBER ('1,1')    -- This assumes your NLS settings are correct
  FROM    dual;
  

  Of course, the effectiveness will not be a problem when you select 1 row of double.

• instead of update, I want to incorporate in the select clause

  instead of separate update, I want to incorporate in the select clause.
  
  I use the following version
  =====================
  Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64bi
  PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
  CORE 10.2.0.1.0 Production
  AMT for Linux: Version 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
  NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
  
  
  =============================
  create table SpendBy AS NOLOGGING
  SELECT commodities.commodity_level_1 mkt_sec.
  0 AS mkt_sec_id,-instead of update, I want to integrate it in the select clause
  Commodities.commodity_level_2 mkt_sub_sec
  TO spend,
  commodities
  WHERE (spend.commodity_id = commodities.node_id)
  
  
  Update SpendBy set mkt_sec_id = (select node_id from products where commodity_level_2 is null and commodity_level_1 = SpendBy.mkt_sec);
  commit;

  I'm sorry, should have better considered in your code.

  A then:

  create table SpendBy NOLOGGING AS
  SELECT   c.commodity_level_1 mkt_sec,
           select node_id  as mkt_sec_id from commodities c2 where c2.commodity_level_2 is null and c2.commodity_level_1=c.commodity_level_1,
        c.commodity_level_2 mkt_sub_sec
  FROM spend s,
       commodities c
  WHERE s.commodity_id = c.node_id;
  

• with different same DataBlock where condition

  Hello
  
  I use forms 6i and 10g db.
  
  I have a datablock, say product_master, which retrieves columns product_id, product_name and price.
  
  and I have 2 control blocks (2 tables)
  
  what I want is based on list in 2 blocks of different control items, I need to retrieve data from the datablock
  
  say ctrlblk1 has a listitem named 'pdtlst '.
  so in this case where condition to be - WHERE the product_id =: pdtlst
  
  and in ctrlblk2 have another element of list "edpdtlst."
  
  where condition will - WHERE the product_id =: edpdtlst
  
  Is this possible?
  I found a "WHERE Clause" option in the Palette property of the Datablock.But I want to spend the condition based on the ctrlblock
  
  Pls help

  Hello

  Changing the block where clause with:

  -- numeric column --
   Set_Block_property( 'block_name', DEFAULT_WHERE, 'col1=' || :ctrl.item1 ) ;
  
  -- char column --
   Set_Block_property( 'block_name', DEFAULT_WHERE, 'col1=''' || :ctrl.item1 || '''') ;
