• Fill two empty columns with the values in a column (all in the same table)

  Can someone point me in the right direction? I want to fill the column prefix and suffix with the AcctNum data.
  
  "Prefix is the part of the number before the '-' and the suffix is everything after the '-'. '. Write a SQL command to fill the column prefix and suffix.

       suffix=(select substr(acctnum, instr(acctnum, '-')+1) from accounts)
       where acctnum=(select prefix||'-'||suffix from accounts);

  To change an existing column in a table, you can use the UPDATE or MERGE, instructions like this:

  UPDATE dgpercentagedatachart

  Percentage of VALUE = 100,00 * totalcecrating

  / lowestfeederrating

  ;

  Noramlly, tables is not redundant columns like this.  If percent can always be calculated from other columns, then it is probably better to calculate at run time and store it in the database, where you will have to be updated each time the columns it depends on change.  You can use a view to avoid having to encode them the calculation.

  If you really don't want a column that can be calculated in the same lines other columns, then use a virtual column (if you use Oracle 11 or higher).

  I hope that answers your question.

  If this isn't the case, please post a small example of data (CREATE TABLE and only relevant columns, INSERT statements) for all of the tables involved and also publish outcomes from these data.

  If you ask on a DML statement, such as UPDATE, the sample data will be the content of the or the tables before the DML, and the results will be the State of the or the tables changed when it's all over.

  Explain, using specific examples, how you get these results from these data.

  Always say what version of Oracle you are using (for example, 11.2.0.2.0).

• Update of several rows of the same table using trigger

  Hello

  I have the following table

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

  CREATE TABLE ATT_PERMISSIONS
  (
  DATE OF PRMONTHYR,
  EMPID	NUMBER (10)	DEFAULT VALUE 0	,
  FROMDATETIME	DATE		,
  TODMTFDATETIME	DATE		,
  NUMBER OF PERMMINS (3),

  SSLINASTRETCH NUMBER (3).

  PERMATTINELIGIBLE	NUMBER (1)	DEFAULT VALUE 0
  );

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

  I want to update the column PERMATTINELIGIBLE in the same table when each line is inserted.

  I created following trigger for that

  CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER SSL_AFTER_UPDATE AFTER UPDATE ON ATT_PERMISSIONS

  FOR EACH LINE

  BEGIN

  Update ATT_PERMISSIONS set PERMATTINELIGIBLE =

  (

  SELECT THE CHECK BOX

  WHEN PERMMINS < = 60

  or

  (

  PERMMINS < = SSLINASTRETCH

  AND

  COUNT (CASE WHEN PERMMINS = 0 THEN NULL OTHERWISE 1 END)

  COURSES (PARTITION BY empid, prmonthyr) < = 1

  )

  THEN 1

  0 OTHERWISE

  END

  FROM ATT_PERMISSIONS where prmonthyr =:new.prmonthyr, empid =:new.empid

  ) where prmonthyr =:new.prmonthyr, empid =:new.empid;

  END;

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

  That is to say.

  When a row is inserted the PERMATTINELIGIBLE of all records for this employee for the month is recalculated.

  There would be only two or three records for an employee for a month.

  PERMMINS is the number of minutes to use as short leave.

  If it is less than 60 is eligible for the bonus to attendance for this employee.

  If this isn't normally the date is not eligible for the attendance for this employee premium.

  but an exception is that if a short leaves of DISP employee allowed a month (IE. ( SSLINASTRETCH ) in a straight line, IE. one day, that day is eligible for the bonus of presence.

  That is to say. Why the number of short leaves in a month is taken. If it's one and done minutes use is lower to SSLINASTRETCH, then the day is eligible for the attendance bonus.

  But when I try to create the trigger I get error, PL/SQL: ORA-00907: missing a right parenthesis.

  Help, please

  I use oracle 10g

  I want to update the column PERMATTINELIGIBLE in the same table, when each row is inserted.

  No - you do NOT want to do in a trigger.

  You cannot query the same table that the trigger is activated on. -C' is a MUTANT and you will get an exception.

  When a row is inserted is recalculated to the PERMATTINELIGIBLE of all the records for that employee for that month.

  There would be only two or three records for an employee for a month.

  PERMMINS is the number of minutes to use as short leave.

  If it is less than 60 is eligible for the bonus to attendance for this employee.

  If is not normally the day is not eligible for the premium of attendance for this employee.

  But when I try to create the trigger I get error, PL/SQL: ORA-00907: missing a right parenthesis.

  You can not do in a trigger. Even if correct you this error of syntax, you will get the exception that I mentioned above.

  Oracle is a multi-user system. Other users can modify the same table that you use.

  So even if you could try to interview "all the records for this employee" some of them may be locked if other users access them. Also, an insert statement could try to insert two rows for an employee and the trigger could not have seen the other lines still.

  If you want to work with data SETS (all records for an employee), you must write the PL/SQL code that LOCKS all lines updated to prevent others to interfere.

  Then you make your operations but NOT in a trigger. Perform inserts and then use an UPDATE query to set this value.

  Then VALIDATE to unlock the lines.

• update to column values (false) in a copy of the same table with the correct values

  Database is 10gr 2 - had a situation last night where someone changed inadvertently values of column on a couple of hundred thousand records with an incorrect value first thing in the morning and never let me know later in the day. My undo retention was not large enough to create a copy of the table as it was 7 hours comes back with a "insert in table_2 select * from table_1 to timestamp...» "query, so I restored the backup previous nights to another machine and it picked up at 07:00 (just before the hour, he made the change), created a dblink since the production database and created a copy of the table of the restored database.
  
  My first thought was to simply update the table of production with the correct values of the correct copy, using something like this:
  
  
  Update mnt.workorders
  Set approvalstat = (select b.approvalstat
  mnt.workorders a, mnt.workorders_copy b
  where a.workordersoi = b.workordersoi)
  where exists (select *)
  mnt.workorders a, mnt.workorders_copy b
  where a.workordersoi = b.workordersoi)
  
  It wasn't the exact syntax, but you get the idea, I wanted to put the incorrect values in x columns in the tables of production with the correct values of the copy of the table of the restored backup. Anyway, it was (or seem to) works, but I look at the process through OEM it was estimated 100 + hours with full table scans, so I killed him. I found myself just inserting (copy) the lines added to the production since the table copy by doing a select statement of the production table where < col_with_datestamp > is > = 07:00, truncate the table of production, then re insert the rows from now to correct the copy.
  
  Do a post-mortem today, I replay the scenario on the copy that I restored, trying to figure out a cleaner, a quicker way to do it, if the need arise again. I went and randomly changed some values in a column number (called "comappstat") in a copy of the table of production, and then thought that I would try the following resets the values of the correct table:
  
  Update (select a.comappstat, b.comappstat
  mnt.workorders a, mnt.workorders_copy b
  where a.workordersoi = b.workordersoi - this is a PK column
  and a.comappstat! = b.comappstat)
  Set b.comappstat = a.comappstat
  
  Although I thought that the syntax is correct, I get an "ORA-00904: 'A'. '. ' COMAPPSTAT': invalid identifier ' to run this, I was trying to guess where the syntax was wrong here, then thought that perhaps having the subquery returns a single line would be cleaner and faster anyway, so I gave up on that and instead tried this:
  
  Update mnt.workorders_copy
  Set comappstat = (select distinct)
  a.comappstat
  mnt.workorders a, mnt.workorders_copy b
  where a.workordersoi = b.workordersoi
  and a.comappstat! = b.comappstat)
  where a.comappstat! = b.comappstat
  and a.workordersoi = b.workordersoi
  
  The subquery executed on its own returns a single value 9, which is the correct value of the column in the table of the prod, and I want to replace the incorrect a '12' (I've updated the copy to change the value of the column comappstat to 12 everywhere where it was 9) However when I run the query again I get this error :
  
  ERROR on line 8:
  ORA-00904: "B". "" WORKORDERSOI ": invalid identifier
  
  First of all, I don't see why the update statement does not work (it's probably obvious, but I'm not)
  
  Secondly, it is the best approach for updating a column (or columns) that are incorrect, with the columns in the same table which are correct, or is there a better way?
  
  I would sooner update the table rather than delete or truncate then re insert, as it was a trigger for insert/update I had to disable it on the notice re and truncate the table unusable a demand so I was re insert.
  
  Thank you

  Hello

  First of all, after post 79, you need to know how to format your code.

  Your last request reads as follows:

  UPDATE
    mnt.workorders_copy
  SET
    comappstat =
    (
      SELECT DISTINCT
        a.comappstat
      FROM
        mnt.workorders a
      , mnt.workorders_copy b
      WHERE
        a.workordersoi    = b.workordersoi
        AND a.comappstat != b.comappstat
    )
  WHERE
    a.comappstat      != b.comappstat
    AND a.workordersoi = b.workordersoi
  

  This will not work for several reasons:
  The sub query allows you to define a and b and outside the breakets you can't refer to a or b.
  There is no link between the mnt.workorders_copy and the the update and the request of void.

  If you do this you should have something like this:

  UPDATE
    mnt.workorders     A      -- THIS IS THE TABLE YOU WANT TO UPDATE
  SET
    A.comappstat =
    (
      SELECT
        B.comappstat
      FROM
        mnt.workorders_copy B   -- THIS IS THE TABLE WITH THE CORRECT (OLD) VALUES
      WHERE
        a.workordersoi    = b.workordersoi      -- THIS MUST BE THE KEY
        AND a.comappstat != b.comappstat
    )
  WHERE
    EXISTS
    (
      SELECT
        B.comappstat
      FROM
        mnt.workorders_copy B
      WHERE
        a.workordersoi    = b.workordersoi      -- THIS MUST BE THE KEY
        AND a.comappstat != b.comappstat
    )
  

  Speed is not so good that you run the query to sub for each row in mnt.workorders
  Note it is condition in where. You need other wise, you will update the unchanged to null values.

  I wouold do it like this:

  UPDATE
    (
      SELECT
        A.workordersoi
        ,A.comappstat
        ,B.comappstat           comappstat_OLD
  
      FROM
        mnt.workorders        A      -- THIS IS THE TABLE YOU WANT TO UPDATE
        ,mnt.workorders_copy  B      -- THIS IS THE TABLE WITH THE CORRECT (OLD) VALUES
  
      WHERE
        a.workordersoi    = b.workordersoi      -- THIS MUST BE THE KEY
        AND a.comappstat != b.comappstat
    ) C
  
  SET
    C.comappstat = comappstat_OLD
  ;
  

  This way you can test the subquery first and know exectly what will be updated.
  This was not a sub query that is executed for each line preformance should be better.

  Kind regards

• How to update columns with the value of other lines in the same table

  Hello
  
  I use Oracle 11.2, I'd use SQL statements to update a column based on values in other rows in the same table. Here are the details:
  
  create table TB_test (number 4 myId, crtTs date, date of MDPU);
  
  insert into tb_test (1, to_date ('20110101', 'YYYYMMDD'), null);
  insert into tb_test (1, to_date ('20110201', 'YYYYMMDD'), null);
  insert into tb_test (1, to_date ('20110301', 'YYYYMMDD'), null);
  insert into tb_test (2, to_date ('20110901', 'YYYYMMDD'), null);
  insert into tb_test (2, to_date ('20110902', 'YYYYMMDD'), null);
  
  After you run the SQL code, I would like to have the following result:

• Report with multiple columns NUMBER of counts of the same table

  I am new to discoverer, so I'm a little lost.

  _ to correct spacing added.

  Hello
  You can separate the column with a case or decode.
  for example to create 2 calculations:

  case
  When usedtype = "PF".
  then - that contain both
  0 otherwise
  end

  case
  When usedtype = 'NF '.
  then - that contain both
  0 otherwise
  end

  After that, you can create the aggregation count on those.

  As Frank suggested merger is much effective here, go...

    create table  temp
  as(
  select 1 eno, 1 amt , sysdate load_date from dual union all
  select 1 eno, 2 amt , add_months(sysdate,1) load_date from dual union all
  select 2 eno, 1 amt , sysdate load_date from dual union all
  select 2 eno, 2 amt , add_months(sysdate,1) load_date from dual
  );
  
  merge into temp t
  using (select eno, amt, load_date
           from temp
          where trunc(Load_Date) = TO_DATE('05/30/2012', 'MM/DD/YYYY')) s
  on ((s.eno = t.eno) and trunc(t.Load_Date) = TO_DATE('06/30/2012', 'MM/DD/YYYY'))
  when matched then
    update set t.amt = s.amt;
  commit;
  
  select * from temp;
  

• Update the same column in the same table

  Hello
  
  How do update you a records of column in the same table?
  
  I have purchase_order of the table. Consists of column ID, color, Purchase_No, Sub purchase.
  
  
  < pre >
  
  Create table Purchase_Order)
  Identification number,
  color varchar2 (10),
  purchase_No varchar2 (5).
  purchase_sub varchar2 (2));
  < / pre >
  
  < pre >
  
  ID color Purchase_No purchase Sub
  6416 S1406 PURPLE 3
  6415 S1406 GREEN 2
  6414 S1406 GREEN 1
  6419 S1406 3
  6417 S1406 1
  6418 S1406 2
  
  < pre >
  
  6 unique ID records is in the same site. But 2 ID will be confined to a purchase_sub.
  
  For example
  
  6416,6419 purchase_no S1406 but has the same purchase_sub who need 3.I 6419 color "Purple".
  
  Expected results:
  < pre >
  
  ID color Purchase_No purchase Sub
  6416 S1406 PURPLE 3
  6415 S1406 GREEN 2
  6414 S1406 GREEN 1
  6419 S1406 PURPLE 3
  6417 S1406 GREEN 1
  6418 S1406 GREEN 2
  
  < / pre >
  
  Thank you!

  Hello

  Try this,

  UPDATE Purchase_Order a
     SET a.Colour = (SELECT colour
                       FROM Purchase_Order b
                      WHERE a.Purchase_Sub = b.Purchase_Sub
                        AND b.colour Is Not Null)
   WHERE a.Colour Is Null
  

  Kind regards
