Help required in a full outer join

In my view, the query below can be changed at the full outer join. But, I was not able to do.
I need your help to change to the full outer join. My current request is

SELECT CLAIMNO,'1' INDX FROM D_CLAIM@CMS2PROD
WHERE clntsys=76500 and facility=76501 and filecreatedt='18-feb-2011' and fileupdatedt is null
MINUS
SELECT CLAIMNO,'1' FROM D_CLAIM
WHERE clntsys=76500 and facility=76501 and filecreatedt='18-feb-2011' and fileupdatedt is null
UNION
SELECT CLAIMNO,'2' FROM D_CLAIM
WHERE clntsys=76500 and facility=76501 and filecreatedt='18-feb-2011' and fileupdatedt is null
MINUS
SELECT CLAIMNO,'2' FROM D_CLAIM@cms2prod
WHERE clntsys=76500 and facility=76501 and filecreatedt='18-feb-2011' and fileupdatedt is null

Something like:

select nvl(p.claimno,s.claimno) claimno,
       nvl2(p.claimno,'PROD','STAGING') the_source,
       :the_clntsys clntsys,

         where clntsys = :the_clntsys
           and facility = :the_facility
       ) p
       full outer join
       (select claimno
          from d_claim@cms2prod        /* never tried with remote */
         where clntsys = :the_clntsys
           and facility = :the_facility
       ) s
       on p.claimno = s.claimno
 where p.claimno is null
    or s.claimno is null

1 auto join to match EI for each partition ID
2. THAT the date must be less than or equal to the date of the AE and when there is more then a line corresponding to this criterion has chosen the date of closest EI of the date of the ACE.
3. it must be a full outer join because I want to show all lines, even if it is not a match. There is a beginning, but not record end end gold but no record of departure
4. If there is an AE line for many AS lines (the SA date is less then equals the date of EI) then join this AE line to all 3 rows of ACE
5. the same rules for BS and BE.
result should look like this.

Thanks for posting the CREATE TABLE and INSERT. I know it can be a lot of trouble. You want to get answers that work, not you? Make sure that the statements you post too much work. Test (and, if necessary, attach) your statements before committing. You said code1 be VARCHAR2, but all the instructions insertion have values of 3 characters for code1.

You are on the right track, with an analytical function, but ROW_NUMBER solves this problem. 1 "THAT line" could correspond to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd or any other line 'AE' and vice versa. Try to use the analytical MIN function instead or ROW_NUMBER, like this:

WITH got_next_e_date AS

(

SELECT id, eff_date, code1, code2

MIN (CASE

WHEN SUBSTR (code2, 2) = 'E '.

THEN eff_date

END

) OVER (PARTITION BY ID.

, SUBSTR (code2, 1, 1)

ORDER BY eff_date DESC

) AS next_e_date

OF tab1

)

s AS

(

SELECT *.

OF got_next_e_date

"WHERE SUBSTR (code2, 2) s ="

)

e

(

SELECT *.

OF got_next_e_date

WHERE SUBSTR (code2, 2) = 'E '.

)

SELECT s.id

s.eff_date

s.code1

s.code2

e.id AS id_1

e.eff_date AS eff_date_1

e.code1 AS code1_1

e.code2 AS code2_1

S

FULL OUTER JOIN e ON s.id = e.id

AND s.next_e_date = e.eff_date

AND SUBSTR (s.code2, 1, 1) = SUBSTR (e.code2, 1, 1)

ORDER OF NVL (s.id, e.id)

, NVL (SUBSTR (s.code2, 1, 1)

, SUBSTR (e.code2, 1, 1)

)

s.eff_date

;

Out (as you asked):

ID EFF_DATE CODE1, CODE2 ID_1 EFF_DATE_1 CODE1_1 CODE2_1

--- ---------- ----- ----- ----- ---------- ------- -------

3. DID DAT 2015-09-16

3 AE DAT 2015-04-16

I guess code2 is always 2 characters, and the 2nd character is always ' or 'E '.

I assume that the combination [id, eff_date, code2] is unique.

If these assumptions are wrong, you need a few minor changes, but nothing big.

Help with sql FULL OUTER JOIN
Hi all
I need assistance with SQL FULL OUTER JOIN.

How to write with FULL OUTER JOIN, the query.
I tried like

I have 3 different queries.

Query q: SELECT emp_id LN.emp_id.
Sum (LN_amount) loan_amt
MY_LON_TAB LN
WHERE LN_amount > 20000
LN.emp_id GROUP;

Query b: SELECT PLN. EMP_ID emp_id,
Sum (PLAN_AMOUNT) plan_amt
FROM PLN MY_PLAN_TAB
where PLAN_AMOUNT <>0
GROUP BY PLN. EMP_ID;

Query C:

SELECT FLX. EMP_ID emp_id,
SUM (PRORATE_AMOUNT) PRORATE_AMT
OF MY_FLX_TAB FLX
WHERE PRORATE_AMOUNT <>0
FLX GROUP. EMP_ID;

Suppose that the different subquery above 3 a, b, c respectively. each subquery with emp_id and respective amount.

like a.emp_id, a.loan_amt
b.emp_id, b.plan_amt
c.emp_id, c.prorate_amt

I show all the empid with their amount respective.
schenario: If an account made, but not vice-versa b
and B have record, but not vice versa c
and a credit record but not vice versa c

first: I have external is associated with the A and B
Second: join external then complete the total outcome of (a & b) with c
but empid c just as empty.

My output is:

emp_id a.loan_amt, b.plan_amt c.prorate_amt
101 5000 null null
102 4500 null 2000
103 6700 null null

How to solve the foregoing to the ANSI (FULL OUTER JOIN) method.
Please suggest me.

Thanks in advance...

Hello

It is very difficult for anyone to say what you're doing wrong if they do not know what you are doing. Post your code FULL OUTER JOIN.
My best guess is:
```
WITH     a     AS
(
     SELECT     ...      -- What you posted as query a
)
,     b     AS
(
     SELECT     ...      -- What you posted as query b
)
,     c     AS
(
     SELECT     ...      -- What you posted as query c
)
SELECT     COALESCE ( a.emp_id
           , b.emp_id
           , c.emp_id
           )     AS emp_id
,     ...     -- whatever other columns you want
FROM          a
FULL OUTER JOIN     b  ON     b.emp_id =            a.emp_id
FULL OUTER JOIN     c  ON     c.emp_id = COALESCE (a.emp_id, b.emp_id)
;
```
I hope that answers your question.
If not, post a small example (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements) data for all tables and the results expected from these data (if not what you have already posted).

[8i] need help with full outer join combined with a cross join...

I can't understand how to combine a full outer join with a different type of join... is it possible?

Here are some create table and insert for examples of database:

CREATE TABLE     my_tab1
(     record_id     NUMBER     NOT NULL     
,     workstation     VARCHAR2(4)
,     my_value     NUMBER
     CONSTRAINT my_tab1_pk PRIMARY KEY (record_id)
);

INSERT INTO     my_tab1
VALUES(1,'ABCD',10);
INSERT INTO     my_tab1
VALUES(2,'ABCD',15);
INSERT INTO     my_tab1
VALUES(3,'ABCD',5);
INSERT INTO     my_tab1
VALUES(4,'A123',5);
INSERT INTO     my_tab1
VALUES(5,'A123',10);
INSERT INTO     my_tab1
VALUES(6,'A123',20);
INSERT INTO     my_tab1
VALUES(7,'????',5);


CREATE TABLE     my_tab2
(     workstation     VARCHAR2(4)
,     wkstn_name     VARCHAR2(20)
     CONSTRAINT my_tab2_pk PRIMARY KEY (workstation)
);

INSERT INTO     my_tab2
VALUES('ABCD','WKSTN 1');
INSERT INTO     my_tab2
VALUES('A123','WKSTN 2');
INSERT INTO     my_tab2
VALUES('B456','WKSTN 3');

CREATE TABLE     my_tab3
(     my_nbr1     NUMBER
,     my_nbr2     NUMBER
);

INSERT INTO     my_tab3
VALUES(1,2);
INSERT INTO     my_tab3
VALUES(2,3);
INSERT INTO     my_tab3
VALUES(3,4);

And, the results that I want to get:

workstation     sum(my_value)     wkstn_name     my_nbr1     my_nbr2
---------------------------------------------------------------
ABCD          30          WKSTN 1          1     2
ABCD          30          WKSTN 1          2     3
ABCD          30          WKSTN 1          3     4
A123          35          WKSTN 2          1     2
A123          35          WKSTN 2          2     3
A123          35          WKSTN 2          3     4
B456          0          WKSTN 3          1     2
B456          0          WKSTN 3          2     3
B456          0          WKSTN 3          3     4
????          5          NULL          1     2
????          5          NULL          2     3
????          5          NULL          3     4

I tried a number of different things, google my problem and no luck yet...

SELECT     t1.workstation
,     SUM(t1.my_value)
,     t2.wkstn_name
,     t3.my_nbr1
,     t3.my_nbr2
FROM     my_tab1 t1
,     my_tab2 t2
,     my_tab3 t3
...

So, what I want, it's a full outer join of t1 and t2 on workstation and a cross join of one with the t3. I wonder if I can't find examples of it online because it is not possible...

Note: I'm stuck dealing with Oracle 8i

Thank you!!

Hello

The query I posted yesterday is a little more complex that it should be.
My_tab2.workstation is unique, there is no reason to make a separate subquery as mt1. We can join my_tab1 to my_tab2 and get the SUM in a subquery.

SELECT       foj.workstation
,       foj.sum_my_value
,       foj.wkstn_name
,       mt3.my_nbr1
,       mt3.my_nbr2
FROM       (     -- Begin in-line view foj for full outer join
          SELECT        mt1.workstation
          ,        SUM (mt1.my_value)     AS sum_my_value
          ,        mt2.wkstn_name
          FROM        my_tab1   mt1
          ,        my_tab2   mt2
          WHERE        mt1.workstation     = mt2.workstation (+)
          GROUP BY   mt1.workstation
          ,        mt2.wkstn_name
                        --
                UNION ALL
                        --
          SELECT      workstation
          ,      0      AS sum_my_value
          ,      wkstn_name
          FROM      my_tab2
          WHERE      workstation     NOT IN (     -- Begin NOT IN sub-query
                                           SELECT      workstation
                                   FROM      my_tab1
                                   WHERE      workstation     IS NOT NULL
                                 )     -- End NOT IN sub-query
       ) foj     -- End in-line view foj for full outer join

ORDER BY  foj.wkstn_name
,       foj.workstation
,       mt3.my_nbr1
,       mt3.my_nbr2

Thanks for posting the CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, and very clear expected results!

She, exactly!
The trickiest part is when and how get SUM (my_value). You could address the question of exactly what my_tab3 must be attached to a cross that's exactly what should look like the result set of the full outer join between my_tab1 and my_tab2 to. To do this, take your desired results, remove columns that do not come from the outer join complete and delete duplicate rows. You will get:

workstation     sum(my_value)     wkstn_name
-----------     -------------   ----------
ABCD          30          WKSTN 1
A123          35          WKSTN 2
B456          0          WKSTN 3
????          5          NULL

So the heart of the problem is how to get these results of my_tab1 and my_tab2, which is done in the subquery FOJ above.

I tried to use auto-documenté in my code names. I hope you can understand.
I could spend hours explaining the different parts of this query more in detail, but I don't know that I would lose some of that time, explain things that you already understand. If you want an explanation of the specific element (s), let me know.

Hello

I have a few questions to ask. Please see below I have provided a script to recreate my problem.

Question 1.

I have the following query does not work when I include columns (see 1.2) in the select but will run when I use the Asterix symbol (see 1.1)

* 1.1 runs with no problems *.

select *
  from ora full outer join txt on ora.ora_id_y = txt.txt_id_y;

* 1.2 returns error.*

select txt.txt_id_y
     , txt.txt_n
     , txt.txt_y
     , ora.ora_n
     , ora.ora_y
  from ora full outer join txt on ora.ora_id_y = txt.txt_id_y;

Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-00918: column ambiguously defined

What is the Assembly of 4 or 5 tables FULL OUTER JOIN logic?

the query is as below:

as you can see, I need FULL OUTER JOIN, these 5 tables and get a column from each table that is based on three common columns (ORG_iD, CUST_ID, CURRENT_DT).

And I wonder what is the logic of the 5 FULL OUTER JOIN table?
It will return if there is a folder that exists in the single table COL1? or table, COL2 and COL3 and so on. Basically any combination of these 5 tables.

    SELECT (CASE WHEN COL1.ORG_ID IS NOT NULL THEN COL1.ORG_ID
                 WHEN COL2.ORG_ID IS NOT NULL THEN COL2.ORG_ID
                 WHEN COL3.ORG_ID IS NOT NULL THEN COL3.ORG_ID
                 WHEN COL4.ORG_ID IS NOT NULL THEN COL4.ORG_ID
                 ELSE COL5.ORG_ID 
            END) ORG_ID,

Hello

When you perform a JOIN EXTERNAL COMPLETE multi - build that way, whenever you add a new table, you can just join the previous table because this table could be all NULL values for a given row. You can reach each new table to the first table, either, for the same reason. You must enclose each new table with all previous tables, like this:

FULL OUTER JOIN COL2 ON  COL2.ORG_ID     =           COL1.ORG_ID
               AND COL2.CURRENT_DT =           COL1.CURRENT_DT
               AND COL2.CUST_ID    =           COL1.CUST_ID
FULL OUTER JOIN COL3 ON  COL3.ORG_ID     = COLAESCE (COL1.ORG_ID,     COL2.ORG_ID)
               AND COL3.CURRENT_DT = COALESCE (COL1.CURRENT_DT, COL2.CURRENT_DT)
               AND COL3.CUST_ID    = COALESCE (COL1.CUST_ID,    COL2.CUST_ID)
FULL OUTER JOIN COL3 ON  COL4.ORG_ID     = COLAESCE (COL1.ORG_ID,     COL2.ORG_ID,     COL3.ORG_ID)
               AND COL4.CURRENT_DT = COALESCE (COL1.CURRENT_DT, COL2.CURRENT_DT, COL3.CURRENT_DT)
               AND COL4.CUST_ID    = COALESCE (COL1.CUST_ID,    COL2.CUST_ID,    COL3.CUST_ID)
FULL OUTER JOIN COL3 ON  COL5.ORG_ID     = COLAESCE (COL1.ORG_ID,     COL2.ORG_ID,     COL3.ORG_ID,     COL4.ORG_ID)
               AND COL5.CURRENT_DT = COALESCE (COL1.CURRENT_DT, COL2.CURRENT_DT, COL3.CURRENT_DT, COL4.CURRENT_DT)
               AND COL5.CUST_ID    = COALESCE (COL1.CUST_ID,    COL2.CUST_ID,    COL3.CUST_ID,    COL4.CUST_ID)

I hope that answers your question.
If not, post a small example data (CREATE TABLE and only relevant columns, INSERT statements), and the results you want from this data.
Explain how you get these results from these data.
Always tell what version of Oracle you are using.

Diff "full outer join" is going. "(+)" SELECT syntax?
As far as I know there are two ways to set an outer join:

Select... from tab1 external t1 full join tab2 t2 on t1.id = t2.id;
or:
SELECT... from tab1 tab2 t2, t1 where t1.id = t2.id (+)

They are absolutely equivialent?

Who are the most common one?

Who serve as well on other databases (DB2, MySQL)?

Can I put an additional WHERE clause at the end of the first statement:

SELECT... from tab1 t1 outer join t2 on t1.id = t2.id tab2 complete WHOSE...;
Select... from tab1 external t1 full join tab2 t2 on t1.id = t2.id;

It's FULL OUTER JOIN

SELECT... from tab1 tab2 t2, t1 where t1.id = t2.id (+)

It's LEFT OUTER JOIN.

They are quite different.

FULL OUTER JOIN - retrieves all the rows from tab1 and tab2

LEFT OUTER JOIN - gets all the tab1 and lines than the line that matches the join condition of tab2.

Here is a simple test.
```
create table tab1(id integer)
/
create table tab2(id integer)
/
begin
  insert into tab1 values(1);
  insert into tab1 values(2);
  insert into tab1 values(3);
end;
/
begin
  insert into tab2 values(3);
  insert into tab2 values(4);
  insert into tab2 values(5);
end;
/
Select t1.id, t2.id
  from tab1 t1 full outer join tab2 t2
    on t1.id =t2.id
/
Select t1.id, t2.id
  from tab1 t1, tab2 t2
 where t1.id = t2.id(+)
/
```
Run it and see the result.

Need help with outer join

Hello
I have a requirement in which I need to get data from a third table where a date of the third table is higher than a date in the second array.
Ex:
```
SELECT t1.column1, t3.column2
FROM t1, t2, t3
WHERE t1.id = t2.foreign_id
AND t1.id ( + ) = t3.foreign_id
AND t3.some_date_column > t2.another_date_column
```
However, using the query above returns no results if the date condition is not met. I still need to show t1.column1 and a null t3.column2.
How should I do this?
Thank you
Allen
Edit: Added information about the requirement.

Hi Allen
1. SELECT t1.column1, t3.column2
2. T1, t2, t3
3. WHERE t1.id = t2.foreign_id
4. AND t1.id = t3.foreign_id (+)
5. AND t3.some_date_column (+) > t2.another_date_column
I guess that this t1.column1 must not be null. Or am I wrong? The + sign must be placed on the side where draws are accepted. You must repeat it for each condition on the table.

Alternativlely you can use the LEFT OUT JOIN syntax. If the two columns are allowed null you need a FULL OUTER JOIN.

BTW: The join to t2 is not required if a refefernce constraint forced.

The problems I am facing
1. I need to get a list of projects that are associated with the search box even if they have no allocation of project. Although I used the outer join, I don't get this result. I used the full outer join, but gave the expected result. (Since there are several tables to assemble. maybe something wrong to join to?) (in the above data, proj3 must also be displayed even if it doesn't have an allocation of project)
2. If a search box has more than one field of research, there are 2 entries for each sub research field even if the project has been associated with the search under a single box (in the above data, the proj1 has been associated with ra4 only, but the results display the ra4 and ka5)
3. the query shows two entries for the main research area and one for the research sub area (provided that the project is associated with the correct principal and under research field). But there should be just an entry in a space research containing the name of the two main and under research field

Please help me to solve these problems.

left and right outer join

Hi gurus,
Left outer join:
-------------------
Select * from A LEFT OUTER JOIN B on A.col = B.col;
by definition, a left outer join brings the rows that match the join condition and lines not corresponding to table A.
My question here is "corresponding to B and no matching rows in A" is that nothing, but... SELECT * FROM A;
can someone pls clarity...
Thank you.

Imagine that you had:

TableA

COLUMN1 COLUMN2

'A'                1

'B'                2

'C'                3

TABLEB

COLUMN1 COLUMN2

'A'                 'X1'

'A'                 'X2'

'B'                 'Y'

'D'                 'Z'

SELECT * FROM TABLEA;

A 1

B 2

C 3

Now, if you want to join (first column is either in table A or B, (deuxieme from tableA, third table B)

SELECT * FROM TABLEA A JOIN TABLEB B ON (A.COLUMN1 = B.COLUMN1)

A 1 X 1

A 1 X 2

B 2 Y

SELECT * FROM TABLE LEFT B EXTERNAL ON (A.COLUMN1 = B.COLUMN1) JOIN TABLE

A 1 X 1

A 1 X 2

B 2 Y

C 3 {null}

SELECT * FROM TABLE A TABLE RIGHT OUTER JOIN B (A.COLUMN1 = B.COLUMN1)

A 1 X 1

A 1 X 2

B 2 Y

D {null} Z

SELECT * FROM TABLE A TABLE FULL OUTER JOIN B (A.COLUMN1 = B.COLUMN1)

A 1 X 1

A 1 X 2

B 2 Y

C 3 {null}

D {null} Z

FULLT OUTER JOIN on two different selects
Hello

I am facing a problem where I don't just get the handle to solve.

I have two pieces of music with different return values. This value should be compared and joined. Simply put, I do an example where the return of the selection is represented as the table1 and table2
Here is the example:
```
table1
abc_comp_nr, abc_cnt_emp
12000, 15
12500, 10
13000, 30
13500, 10

table2
xyz_comp_nr, xyz_cnt_emp
12000, 15
13000, 30
14000, 20

Output should be this:
comp_nr, abc_cnt_emp, xyz_cnt_emp
12000, 15, 15
12500, 10, 0
13000, 30, 30
13500, 10, 0
14000, 0, 20
```
comp_nr is the combination of abc_comp_nr or xyz_comp_nr

I tried this but did not work as expected:
Select?, abc_cnt_emp, xyz_cnt_emp
Of
Table1 FULL OUTER JOIN table2
ON abc_comp_nr = xyz_comp_nr

Hope that someone was in trouble similar and found a good way to work it.

Thanks in advance

Tobias

Whenever you have a problem, post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for the sample data.
See the FAQ forum {message identifier: = 9360002}
```
Output should be this:
comp_nr, abc_cnt_emp, xyz_cnt_emp
12000, 15, 15
12500, 10, 0
13000, 30, 30
13500, 10, 0
14000, 0, 20
```

I tried this but did not work as expected:
Select?, abc_cnt_emp, xyz_cnt_emp
Of
Table1 FULL OUTER JOIN table2
ON abc_comp_nr = xyz_comp_nr
Instead of??? you want to
```
NVL (abc_comp_nr, xyz_comp_nr)
```
The first column is supposed to be the common identifier, abc_comp_nr, or xyz_comp_nr. It doesn't matter which, since the join condition
```
ON abc_comp_nr = xyz_comp_nr
```
said they will be the same, except that it's a FULL OUTER JOIN, if one of them might be null. If you want to display the non NULL when one of them is NULL and or the other (any) when they are both present. It's just that NVL.

You can use NVL on other columns, too, to display 0 instead of NULL when there is no match:
```
SELECT   NVL ( abc_comp_nr, xyz_comp_nr)     AS comp_nr
,        NVL ( abc_cnt_emp, 0)               AS abc_cnt_emp
,      NVL ( xyz_cnt_emp, 0)               AS xyz_cnt_emp
FROM              table1
FULL OUTER JOIN  table2  ON  abc_comp_nr  = xyz_comp_nr
;
```
However, this will display 0 instead of NULL for abc_cnt_emp and xyz_cnt_emp when these columns are NULL for a reason, not just at the time when they do not reach the join condition. If the original paintings contain NULL values and you should keep NULL values in the result set, but you want NULLs which were created by the outer join to show as 0, then you may want something like this:
```
SELECT   NVL ( abc_comp_nr, xyz_comp_nr)     AS comp_nr
,        NVL2 ( abc_comp_nr, abc_cnt_emp, 0)     AS abc_cnt_emp
,      NVL2 ( xyz_comp_nr, xyz_cnt_emp, 0)     AS xyz_cnt_emp
FROM              table1
FULL OUTER JOIN  table2  ON  abc_comp_nr  = xyz_comp_nr
;
```
Whenever you use FULL OUTER JOIN, there is an excellent chance that you will want to use NVL (or his brother younger, stronger, COALESCE, or their cousin NVL2) as well.

Hi guys,.

In fact I'm not guru in Oracle as such. The first query, I pasted works well.

You mean the second query (one with ANSI joins) is running fine and the first query (with signs +) is a mistake, right?

Looking at this request I created the joins in the second, but then I get this error. I just want to understand what is the difference in the ANSI query and mine is throwing this error.

Join ANSI rating supports outer joins to more than one table; the old syntax doesn't work. That's all there is to it. The ANSI syntax also supports FULL OUTER JOIN, and the old syntax does not work. There is nothing wrong with more than one table outer join, just as there is nothing wrong with a full outer join. You can do it with the old syntax, but just more coding.

using (+) or left outer join
Dear Expert;

I've been playing by using the two symbol... and realized that they do the same thing... Is it true...? or am I wrong.

Thank you.

They all have two outer joins. The + rating was the original way to do it in Oracle. LEFT, RIGHT, and FULL OUTER JOIN introduced in Oracle 9, but the old way is still supported.

There are some situations (such as an outer join complete and outer-join a table to two different tables) that are better with the ANSI syntax (it's LEFT OUTER JOIN). It is possible to get the same results using +, but it must be combersome and/or inefficient workarounds. I suggest that you use always LEFT OUTER JOIN (or FULL OUTER JOIN, or, on occasions RIGHT OUTER JOIN). I think that you will find it easier and less error-prone.

Help required in a full outer join
