Subquery in GROUP BY CLAUSE

• Subquery in the select clause and not "a group by expression" error.

  Hi all
  I hope someone out there can help me out with this one. I have a sql query that performs a subquery in the select case combined with an aggregate function and gives me a "not a group by expression.
  
  I created a simplified example

   SELECT COUNT(*)                     ,
    ai.invoice_num invoice_number      ,
    ai.description invoice_description ,
    (SELECT poh.po_header_id
         FROM po_headers poh ,
        po_distributions pod
        WHERE pod.po_distribution_id = aid.po_distribution_id
      AND pod.po_header_id           = poh.po_header_id
      ) po_number
       FROM ap_invoice_distributions aid ,
      ap_invoices ai
      WHERE ai.invoice_id = 1476932
    AND aid.project_id    = 8608   
    AND aid.task_id       = 462202  
    AND ai.invoice_id     = aid.invoice_id
   GROUP BY ai.invoice_num,
                  ai.description;

  I'm sure he expected me to add the po_number to the group by clause, but this does not work and gives the error "invalid identifier".
  
  Can someone suggest a way for a new concert the query so that I can add po_number to my education by clause.

  You should try either:

  SELECT COUNT (*),
  AI.invoice_num invoice_number,
  have. Description invoice_description,
  (SELECT poh.po_header_id

  pod po_distributions
  WHERE pod.po_distribution_id = aid.po_distribution_id
  AND pod.po_header_id = poh.po_header_id
  ) po_number
  HELP ap_invoice_distributions.
  ap_invoices AI

  AND aid.task_id = 462202
  AND ai.invoice_id = aid.invoice_id
  Ai.invoice_num GROUP,
  have. Description, aid.po_distribution_id;

  or

  SELECT COUNT (*),
  AI.invoice_num invoice_number,
  have. Description invoice_description,
  MAX ((SELECT poh.po_header_id

  Hello

  You can do this via an opaque view.

  You can also do this by modeling the cumulative value as a calculation LOGIC in the group by aggregation "pinned" to a specific dimension hierarchy that reflects consolidation in the online posting.

  Hope this helps,

• A query containing a subquery and Group By all-in-one

  Hi people,
  Any interesting fact but nerve racking situation I have here. I have a question that I have to do counts and amounts and I also need to have a Sub inside query. When I run my application, I get an error like this:

  If I replace it with the acc.account_num (subquery) with a number that is in the database, then my request works well.

  Hello

  We don't know what you want. It would really help if you posted some examples of data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements) and the results desired from these data.

  Are you sure that the scalar subquery will return ever more than one line? If so, you can wrap in a MIN or MAX aggregate function, as I've suggested before:

   select distinct to_char(c.start_date,'YYYY') start_date,
           substr(acc.account_num,1,12) account_number,
     MIN ( ( select acc2.account_desc from student_account  acc2     -- Changed
           where  acc2.account_num = acc.account_num
           and    acc2.account_type = 'A'
         ) ),                                   -- Changed
         COUNT(distinct(s.student_id))
  from student s,
         student_account acc,
         course   c
  where s.course_id = c.course_id
  and     s.account_num = acc.account_num
  and    to_char(c.start_date, 'YYYY/MM/DD') between '2004/01/01' and '2009/12/31'
  group by to_char(c.start_date,'YYYY'), substr(acc.acct_acc_num,1,12)
  order by 1;
  

  It seems that you could also simplify the query and make more fast, eliminating the scalar subquery. The table there is already part of the main query, you can do something like this:

  SELECT    TO_CHAR (c.start_date, 'YYYY')     AS start_date
  ,         SUBSTR (acc.account_num, 1, 12)      AS account_number
  ,       MIN ( CASE
                      WHEN  acc.account_type = 'A'
                THEN  account_desc
                  END
             )                         AS a_desc
  ,         COUNT (DISTINCT s.student_id)          AS student_id_cnt
  FROM       student            s
  ,       student_account     acc
  ,       course          c
  WHERE       s.course_id          = c.course_id
  AND       s.account_num          = acc.account_num
  AND       c.start_date          BETWEEN DATE '2004-01-01'
                        AND     DATE '2009-12-31'
  GROUP BY  TO_CHAR (c.start_date, 'YYYY')
  ,            SUBSTR (acc.acct_acc_num, 1, 12)
  ORDER BY  start_date;
  

  I guess that course.start_date is a DATE. Instead of converting each start_date to string (so you can see if it is in the right range), it is more efficient and less prone to error, compared to other DATEs, as shown above.

  It is very strange that you

  substr(acc.account_num,1,12)
  

  in the select clause, but

  substr(acc.acct_acc_num,1,12)
  

  in the GROUP BY clause. Did you mean having the same column in both places?

  Yet once, without seeing some examples of data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements) and the results desired from this data, I can't do much.

  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

  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)".

• Doubts formidable wrt "select", "join" and "group by" clause to calm a while...

  Dear all,

  Kindly advise on below 2 doubts which have been daunting for quiet some time. The bottom has forced our requests to take alternative routes to receive solutions.

  Doubt 1) is it possible for us to use 'select (*)' with a group and a join clause, if we have at least 2/3 tables with minimum 15-20 columns... given the constraint of having to add all the names column in the group by clause.

  Question 2) is it possible to use "select" (*) with the exception of a single column of the table?
  That is to say, I hate the output of a statement select (*) to have the entire field except a field in a table

  Ask your advisor for the same thing. Excuse me because I have no examples to illustrate this point in time. A successful idea will do.

  Sure.  If you had problems, you did it wrong.  Your postal code, examples of data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements) and the results desired from these data.

  Check out the Forum FAQ: Re: 2. How can I ask a question on the forums?

  Normally, you don't want to ' SELECT *...» "in a join.  Are most joins are equijoins, ' SELECT *...» "produced 2 copies of / columns used for Assembly.  In addition, many tables have columns (for example, modified_date) that are not necessary in most applications.

  All columns must be included explicitly in a GROUP BY clause. You cannot use * it.

  You can not have parentheses around the * in ' SELECT *...» ».  You might think 'SELECT COUNT (*) '

  Question 2) is it possible to use "select" (*) with the exception of a single column of the table?

  ...
  

  No.; If you don't want a particular column in the result set, you cannot use "SELECT *...» ».

  Your front end can have so as not to display a column in the result set.  For example, in SQL * more:

  COLUMN modified_date NOPRINT

  means that you won't see any column called modified_date.

• How to INSERT a SELECT statement with a GROUP BY clause on a table with an IDENTITY column?

  n an application, I intend to truncate and insertion on a 12 c Oracle database, but have found this problem with a IDENTITY column. Even if the INSERT... SELECT statement works on most SELECT uses I tried, if this statement was also a GROUP BY clause, it does not work, delivering a "ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression ' complaint. Some examples of code:

  create table aux ( owner_name varchar2(20), pet varchar2(20) );  
  insert into aux values ('Scott', 'dog'); 
  insert into aux values ('Mike', 'dog'); 
  insert into aux values ('Mike', 'cat'); 
  insert into aux values ('John', 'turtle');  
  
  
  create table T1 (
    id number generated always as identity,
    owner_name varchar2(20),
    pet_count number ); 
  select owner_name, count(*) as pet_count from aux group by owner_name; -- works just fine
  insert into T1 (owner_name, pet_count) select owner_name, count(*) as pet_count from aux group by owner_name; -- doesn't work
  

  The select statement works by itself, but it fails as an INSERT... SELECT statement.

  Appreciate the help!

  Looks like a bug. You must open the SR with Oracle. Meanwhile, you could materialize select:

  SQL > insert into T1 (owner_name, pet_count)
  2 with t as (select / * + materialize * / owner_name, count (*) as pet_count to the owner_name group)
  3. Select owner_name, pet_count t
  4.

  3 lines were created.

  SQL > select * from t1;

  ID OWNER_NAME PET_COUNT
  ---------- -------------------- ----------
  1 John                          1
  Scott 2 1
  3 Mike                          2

• -SQL - GROUP BY clause: fields of nonaggregate mandate

  Hello
  
  I study data (especially data recovery) and found something interesting.
  
  When you use an aggregate function in the SELECT clause, it is mandatory to have all fields that are not aggregated in the SELECT clause to be there in the GROUP BY clause.
  For example,.
  
  SELECT dept_no, Salary
  The EMPLOYEE
  GROUP BY dept_no;
  
  The SQL above works fine.
  But what happens if the user forgets the dept_no in the GROUP BY clause or the clause GROUP BY itself is missing?
  Certainly, it is a mistake.
  
  Why this error is not handled by the database. I mean, the database must be smart/pretty smart to add the GROUP BY clause by itself. So let's assume that, if I miss the GROUP BY clause or miss a field no aggregated from the SELECT clause when I get at least an aggregate function on a field with at least a no aggregated field in the SELECT clause, the database should check the GROUP BY clause at compile time and add mandate missed the fields in the GROUP BY clause.
  
  Example,
  
  SQL1:_
  SELECT dept_no, Salary
  The EMPLOYEE
  GROUP BY dept_no;
  
  SQL2:_
  SELECT dept_no, Salary
  The EMPLOYEE;
  
  Here, the SQL1 and SQL2, both should give me same output without error.
  
  I can't understand why this is handled?

  Hello

  998478 wrote:
  ... If we mix the aggregated and non-aggregated values, then there must be a GROUP BY clause that contains all non-aggregated values. Why this is handled by the database/compiler itself?

  It IS managed by the compiler itself. The compiler manages to trigger an error. The compiler has no way of knowing if you want to remove something from the SELECT clause, or add something to the GROUP BY clause, or not to use the aggregate functions or use several aggregate functions, or a combination of the above. If the compiler re-writes your code and none of these things done automatically, it would be wrong more often that he was right, and you would (rightly) complain about his behavior.

  For example, it is clearly wrong:

  SELECT    deptno
  ,       job
  ,       SUM (sal)
  FROM       scott.emp
  GROUP BY  deptno
  ;
  

  What is the right way to fix it?

  1. remove something from the SELECT clause

  SELECT    deptno
  ,       SUM (sal)
  FROM       scott.emp
  GROUP BY  deptno
  ;
  

  2. add something to the GROUP BY clause

  SELECT    deptno
  ,       job
  ,       SUM (sal)
  FROM       scott.emp
  GROUP BY  deptno
  ,         job
  ;
  

  3. do not use aggregate functions

  SELECT    deptno
  ,       job
  ,       sal
  FROM       scott.emp
  ;
  

  4. use several aggregate functions

  SELECT    deptno
  ,       MIN (job)
  ,       SUM (sal)
  FROM       scott.emp
  GROUP BY  deptno
  ;
  

  What are all the options, either. For example, the correct solution would be to use analytical functions instead of aggregate functions.
  How can anyone tell which of them is right? They all have the right answer for some problem.

  Moreover, by saying that everying in the SELECT clause must be an aggregate or in the GROUP BY clause is a bit oversimplified.
  Fuller, here's the ABC of GROUP BY:
  When you use a GROUP BY clause or in an aggregate function, then all in the SELECT clause must be:
  (A) a ggregate function,
  (B) one of the expressions "group By."
  (C) adding to C, or
  (D) something that Depends on the foregoing. (For example, if you "GROUP BY TRUNC (dt)", you can SELECT "TO_CHAR (TRUNC (dt), 'Mon - DD')").

• Control the Append KM, Group by clause

  Hi all
  
  I am using the max function in interface (KM: control IKM append), in the map apart from the source columns in the data store that I use few variables ODI (say LD_ID = 200). Sort of variable LD_ID is being picked up by the KM in the group clause, why Labour fails with the error
  GROUP BY position 200 isn't in the target list. I understand the error but do not know why this variable in the grop is recovered by the clause. The substituition method that I see in the KM is odiRef.getGrpBy)
  
  Can someone help me with this please?
  
  Thank you
  Ashok

  Hey Ashok,

  When using (a) or several global functions, like SUM, ODI add one GROUP BY clause with all other columns in it.
  You can try to move the mapping of the LD_ID on the target and see if it works (it depends on the architecture you).

  If you followed relational design, you should lookup table. If you do not, you need to create a. In addition, date is reserved word, and the County is a key word, to not use as column names. Then, use the outer join:

  SQL> create table tbl as
    2  select to_date('06/08/2012','dd/mm/yyyy') dt,'Reason1' reason,'Home' product,1 qty from dual union all
    3  select to_date('07/08/2012','dd/mm/yyyy'),'Reason2','Motor',1 from dual union all
    4  select to_date('08/08/2012','dd/mm/yyyy'),'Reason1','Home',1 from dual union all
    5  select to_date('09/08/2012','dd/mm/yyyy'),'Reason3','Home',2 from dual union all
    6  select to_date('10/08/2012','dd/mm/yyyy'),'Reason1','Home',1 from dual union all
    7  select to_date('06/08/2012','dd/mm/yyyy'),'Reason5','Home',1 from dual
    8  /
  
  Table created.
  
  SQL> create table reason_list as
    2  select  'Reason' || level reason from dual connect by level <= 5
    3  /
  
  Table created.

• Reg - search form for a VO in group by clause

  Hello
  I have a bar chart that displays data based on the query below.
  
  SELECT THE STATE. BATCH AS STATUSID, STATUS. STATUS, COUNTY (SR. SERVICEREQUEST_ID) AS SRCOUNT
  OF SR, SERVICEREQUESTSTATUS STATE SERVICE_REQUEST
  WHERE SR. BATCH = STATUS. BATCH
  GROUP STATUS. BATCH, STATUS. STATUS, SR. BATCH
  
  It displays the number of SRs against a particular status.
  Now, I need to add a search form to this graph with the customer and the date range.
  So you need to add the following line to the place where clause.
  SR. "CUSTOMER_ID =: customerId AND SR. "BETWEEN REQUESTED_ON: fromDate and: to this day.
  But the SR columns. CUSTOMER_ID, SR. REQUESTED_ON also needs to be added to the select clause to create criteria for the search panel view.
  The two columns should also be added to the group by clause if you want to add in the select clause.
  This would not produce the expected results.
  How to create a search with the criteria only form in the where clause. Help, please.
  
  
  With respect,
  Guna

  [Url http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E16162_01/apirefs.1112/e17483/oracle/jbo/server/ViewObjectImpl.html] ViewObjectImpl has methods to do this programmatically (setQuery, defineNamedWhereClauseParam, setNamedWhereClauseParam) that you can use to manipulate the query variables bind expected and the values of the lie.

  If I remove the clause xmlagg and the group by clause, the query works well and not give me the result.
  But in this code XML, the output format is incorrect for my application.
  
  Could someone help out here?

  Now my problem is that this unique coating is more than 32767 characters and utl_file can write 32767 bytes per line.
  Someone deal with this?

  Serialize the output as CLOB and DBMS_XSLPROCESSOR.clob2file procedure used to write to a file:

  DECLARE
    xml_output CLOB;
  BEGIN
    SELECT XMLElement("Department",
             XMLAgg(
               XMLElement("Employee",e.job_id||' '||e.last_name)
               ORDER BY e.last_name
             )
           ).getClobVal() AS "Dept_list"
    INTO xml_output
    FROM hr.employees e
    WHERE e.department_id = 30 OR e.department_id = 40;
  
    DBMS_XSLPROCESSOR.clob2file(xml_output, 'XML_DIR', 'test.xml');

• can do without group by clause report through parameter

  Hello expert,
  
  I need to create a report in which the user select a field and adds this field in the group by clause of the sql query.
  
  
  I know that the notion of setting lexical but getting only not the idea how the user for the group by clause...
  I tried the following
  
  Select trunc (m.spc_doc_date),
  -d.spc_item_code,
  Sum (NVL(d.req_qty,0)) x, sum (nvl(d.spc_item_qty,0)) y

  and d.blce_qty > 0
  and m.spc_locn_code = 400001

  Hello Hamid

  Hello, yoann

  Most likely, you are getting error ORA-00936 .

  If the error above is true, then you are missing a part in sql.
  First without lexical parameter your query should be ok. Correct your query without lexical parameter, and then add the lexical parameter.
  Try this

  select trunc(m.spc_doc_date),
  --d.spc_item_code,
  sum(nvl(d.req_qty,0)) x,sum(nvl(d.spc_item_qty,0)) y
  from spc_ppc_daily_m m, spc_ppc_daily_d d
  where m.spc_doc_# in(select spc_doc_# from spc_ppc_daily_m where fncl_year=20112012)
  and m.fncl_year=20112012
  and d.blce_qty>0
  and m.spc_locn_code=400001
  and m.spc_doc_date between '01-feb-2012' and '29-feb-2012'
  and m.spc_locn_code=d.spc_locn_code
  and m.fncl_year=d.fncl_year
  and m.spc_doc_#=d.spc_doc_#
  group by trunc(m.spc_doc_date) &g_by 
  

  Hope this helps...

  because

  is always true
  because

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

  means

  if 0=0 then F.custnum else 0
