Expression-matter ORA-00932: inconsistent data types

I'm trying to use the following condition

Select

case

When

Count (exception.exception_number) > 1

then 0

on the other

ENTITY_TYPE_DEF.NAME

end name

With the exception of the table, exception_number has a varchar2 data type. My requirement is such that if the number of exception number is greater than 1, it should show 0 (integer) and if not then see the name column of the entity_type_def table (varchar2).

My query fails with the following error

ERROR on line 7:

ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected NUMBER obtained TANK

Please could someone suggest a workaround solution for above question.

Hello.

For example,.

Select

case

When

Count (exception.exception_number) > 1

then "0"

on the other

ENTITY_TYPE_DEF.NAME

end name

  • ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected DATE receipt NUMBER to call OIC OCIStmtExecute OBIEE 11g

    Hi friends,

    I get this error: ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected DATE got the NUMBER to the call of the OIC OCIStmtExecute when I'm putting the filter on the date column condition.

    "Sun Time". " Day' < = cast (MAX ("Sun time" "." ")) Date day")) and"Sun Time ". "' Day ' > = TIMESTAMPADD (SQL_TSI_MONTH,-1, cast (MAX ("Sun time".) "Day") as date). "

    I sank the date max, but if I get the above error. I think max (date) creates the problem.

    Please suggest your opinion on that.

    Thank you.

    Thank you for your suggestions.

    I used the variable, and it helped.

    "Sun Time". " Date' <= valueof(maxdate)="" and="" "dim-time"."date"="">= TIMESTAMPADD (SQL_TSI_MONTH-1, VALUEOF (Maxdate))

    I had departments such as front number... .but must be able to take over the alpha characters... so I changed my Bind Variables in my model: Array string (decimal Big)

    This is the error:

    where dept in (SELECT * FROM TABLE (CAST (: depts AS glc.))) NUMTABTYPE)))

    How can I solve this?... probably need to delete interpreters from here... .but how I it... any help is appreciated.

    I also Type:
    create or replace TYPE NUMTABTYPE in the TABLE to the number; (also I tried to change this option for create or replace TYPE NUMTABTYPE in the TABLE to the varchar2 (200);)

    I changed the table to a string and

    [oracle.jbo.domain.Number]"with java.lang.String to support also supports departments alpha characters... dept can be AB123 (string) or 3344 (number only)

    You cannot get the ref cursor in a table like this. Either use a PL/SQL program to extract the lines of ref cursor and display them via dbms_output.put_line (or something) or load the results into a collection and then cast the collection in a table in your select statement.

  • Why I get this error? ORA-00932: inconsistent data types

    It's my stored procedure, I created to select only the exact amount of records per page to a GridView (for ASP.NET):
    CREATE OR REPLACE
PROCEDURE SELECT_COMMAND
(pTable IN VARCHAR2
, pFields IN VARCHAR2
, pSortField IN VARCHAR2
, pPageIndex IN NUMBER
, pTotalRecs IN NUMBER
, pResultSet OUT SYS_REFCURSOR
) AS
BEGIN  
  EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 
  'SELECT ' || pFields || ' FROM '
  || '(SELECT '|| pFields ||', ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY '|| pSortField ||') ROW_NUM '
  || 'FROM '|| pTable ||') WHERE ROW_NUM BETWEEN '|| to_char(pPageIndex*pTotalRecs) ||' AND '
  || to_char((pPageIndex+1)*pTotalRecs)    
  INTO pResultSet;
  -- Plus 1 to our index because GridView is a zeroth index collection
END SELECT_COMMAND;
    I then do a test case with the following parameters:
    declare
p_test sys_refcursor;
begin
select_command('v_sig_devices', '"JOB", "LINE"', '"DEVICE_ID"', 0, 10, p_test);
end;
    But I get the following error:

    At first Oracle gave me an error because the figures were not a string. Can I convert it to a string (with to_char) and Oracle is still not satisfied! Any ideas as to why this is happening?

    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Suppose you want sth. as

    ...
OPEN pResultSet FOR 'SELECT ' || pFields || ' FROM '
  || '(SELECT '|| pFields ||', ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY '|| pSortField ||') ROW_NUM '

  • Error ORA-00932: inconsistent data types

    Hello world

    I'm having a small problem with the error ORA-00932: inconsistent data types. The code below is what I'm working on. The error is on line 12:
    "vStmt: = ' select DDH_HOST_NM, DDH_SCHEMA_NR from ' | '. vSchema |'. < table > @ < DB_LINK > '; ». This is because DDH_HOST_NM is a VARCHAR2 and DDH_SCHEMA_NR a number.

    I know what is the error and where it is but I can't work on how to solve this problem. I tried to use to_char on DDH_SCHEMA_NR but that does not.

    Anyone have an idea how I can fix this problem?

    Thank you
    N.S.N.O.

    DECLARE
    vSchema varchar2 (1000);
    vStmt varchar2 (1000);
    Version number (38);
    CURSOR c_schemas IS
    Select "< SCHEMA-NAME >" as "< scheme name >" twice;
    BEGIN
    Open c_schemas;
    LOOP
    SEEK c_schemas INTO vSchema;
    EXIT WHEN c_schemas % NOTFOUND;
    vStmt: = ' select DDH_HOST_NM, DDH_SCHEMA_NR from ' | vSchema |'. < table > @ < DB_LINK > ';
    Run immediately vStmt in version;
    dbms_output.put_line(vSchema||) e '|| Version);
    END LOOP;
    CLOSE C_schemas;
    END;

    The problem is that you choose 2 columns in a single variable?

    vStmt: = ' select DDH_HOST_NM, DDH_SCHEMA_NR from ' | vSchema |'.

    @';
    Run immediately vStmt in version ;

    This must be either

    vStmt: = ' select DDH_SCHEMA_NR from ' | vSchema |'.

    @';
    Run immediately vStmt in version;

    or

    vStmt: = ' select DDH_HOST_NM, DDH_SCHEMA_NR from ' | vSchema |'.

    @';
    Run immediately vStmt in vHostNm, version;

    where vHostNm should set as a variable too.

  • [8i] Case statement generates ORA-00932: inconsistent data types

    Note: I work with a 8i database (Yes, he's old enough) and in this case, I have to deal with the types of data (e.g. TANK), I gives me to work with.

    I am trying to calculate the amount of time product expected between manufacturing steps. As I found out though, sometimes I get a negative value then subtract the date the previous step ends the date of that ongoing stage begins. Since it is generally impossible to start a later stage before a previous step (imagine trying to screw a cap on a bottle that has no son Cup yet - it just may not happen), what I found is that sometimes two steps are started the same day and finished the same day (although not necessarily the day they started). This situation CAN occur when a person is two steps and connected to two steps at the same time, rather than log on to one, then the other. So what I need to do in these situations, is to replace the negative number by zero (I'll treat the stage as having no time-out).

    Some examples of data:
    (Note: the data set real is the result of a query and has about 200 K lines and columns more, but this should be representative enough to find a solution that works on my real application.)

    Here's the query I use that sometimes returns negative values:
    SELECT     item_id
,     ord_nbr
,     sub_nbr
,     step_nbr
,     start_date - last_step_finished
FROM     (
     SELECT     s.*
     ,     LAG (s.finish_date)     OVER     (
                              PARTITION BY     s.item_id
                              ,          s.ord_nbr
                              ,          s.sub_nbr
                              ORDER BY     s.step_nbr
                              )     AS last_step_finished
     FROM     steps s
     );

Returns:

ITEM_ID                   ORD_NBR    SUB STEP START_DATE-LAST_STEP_FINISHED
------------------------- ---------- --- ---- -----------------------------
A                         0000000001 001 0010

A                         0000000001 002 0020                         2.000
A                         0000000001 002 0030                         2.000
B                         0000000002 001 0005
B                         0000000002 001 0025                        -2.000
    These are the results I want to see:
    ITEM_ID                   ORD_NBR    SUB STEP START_DATE-LAST_STEP_FINISHED
------------------------- ---------- --- ---- -----------------------------
A                         0000000001 001 0010
A                         0000000001 001 0020                         0.000
A                         0000000001 001 0030                         3.000
A                         0000000001 002 0010
A                         0000000001 002 0020                         2.000

B                         0000000002 001 0025                         0.000
    And that's what I tried to do to get these results (comment pointed out which line has generated the error):
    SELECT     item_id
,     ord_nbr
,     sub_nbr
,     step_nbr
,     CASE
          WHEN     start_dt - last_step_finished     < 0
          THEN     0
          ELSE     start_dt - last_step_finished  -- THIS LINE GENERATES THE ORA-00932 ERROR
     END                         AS days_in_queue
FROM     (
     SELECT     s.*
     ,     LAG (s.finish_date)     OVER     ( PARTITION BY  s.item_id
                                ,          s.ord_nbr
                                ,          s.sub_nbr
                                ORDER BY     s.step_nbr
                              )     AS last_step_finished
     FROM     steps s
     );
    I know that I had errors in data type incompatible before with case statements in this particular 8i database, but I can't seem to understand why I'm getting one this time. I think it has something to do with the NULL value which may occur for last_step_finished. Also, if I change the case statement to:
    ,     CASE
          WHEN     start_dt - last_step_finished     < 0
          THEN     NULL
          ELSE     start_dt - last_step_finished  -- THIS LINE GENERATES THE ORA-00932 ERROR
     END     
    the query works fine. But, I'm not NULL, I 0. In the level of this request, I'll take the averages by item_id/step_nbr, and I want that 0 s to be included in the average. (NULL values, as far as I know, would be excluded. AVG(null,_1,_2) = AVG (1,2) = 1.5 NOT AVG (0,1,2) = 1).

    Thanks in advance!

    CASE requires that all expressions to be of the same type. Numeric data type code is 2, then that date produced different internal datatype 14:

    SQL> select dump(1) a,dump(sysdate) b,dump(sysdate - (sysdate - 1)) c from dual;

A                  B                                   C

    Case is supposed to process until the number, but it does not--a bug in some versions. Use explicit to_number:

    ,     CASE
          WHEN     start_dt - last_step_finished     < 0
          THEN     0
          ELSE     to_number(start_dt - last_step_finished)
     END                         AS days_in_queue

    Well, you won't get definitive answers unless you provide the requested information.
    What type of p_year_from and data p_year_to?
    Guessing based on your last two answers, it is VARCHAR2, isn't it?
    Convert to date and compare:

    trunc(ract.trx_date) between to_date(:p_year_from,'DD/MM/YYYY') AND to_date(:p_year_to,'DD/MM/YYYY')

    That said, store dates as string is a major shortcoming. Consider to store and maintain dates in the form of dates.
