The command line is a powerful tool at the disposal of every Linux user. Although Linux distros come with beautiful user interfaces, it's worthwhile to learn the command line because it allows you to do a number of things that you otherwise cannot do from the GUI.

I want to update a column VIA insert trigger
Posted on 2009-05-11
I have a SQL query that creates a table, then creates triggers for the table. The triggers need to update a column in the new record from sums and counts in other tables. I'm pretty new to writing queries, so Im a bit confused. I just cannot seem to get the inserted record values to come up. I've tried using variabbles and using the inserted.values from the inserted table.
I need this working tomorrow so any help is appreciated.....
thanks

The first update wont work because alias inserted is not known in that context. The second on should work with a fiew adjustment... see below
Also you can test in in Mgmt Studio by executing the select and supplying values for your variables. see further below
Hope this helps

Dont I need the GROUP BY statement in order for the SUM and COUNT to work? (original code snippet line 63 & 73)
The variables come from the newly inserted row. Therefore the AFTER INSERT should supply them, No?
(original snippet line 44-54)

Replace <PrimaryKey> with the Primary Key or unique column in CallData:

I see that you have used <PrimaryKey> .
Is this a variable or are you telling me to enter some data here?
There is no primary key for this table as many of the matching fields will contain nulls.

You don't need a group by because you're only returing the one value SUM(pqi.IssuedPremium). The where clause will define which row make up the sum.
Yes, since the trigger is Insert After you will get the values when you do the select.

Did you not see my comment:
"Replace <PrimaryKey> with the Primary Key or unique column in CallData:"
>>There is no primary key for this table as many of the matching fields will contain nulls.<<
That is too bad. Can you find some combination that is unique or failiing that add a unique column (an IDENTITY column for example)
Here is the problem with your approach:
Let's suppose that your INSERT statement adds 100 rows, then the following local variables will contain just one value (the last one in the Inserted logical table):
SELECT
@F1 = [F1],
@MasterAgencyID = [MasterAgencyID],
@ProducerID = [ProducerID],
@Issue_State = [Issue_State],
@Category = [Category],
@Line = [Line],
@Form = [Form],
@Origin = [Origin],
@Originator = [Originator],
@Policy_Type = [Policy_Type] FROM inserted
The Trigger fires once per statement and NOT once per row inserted.

HBHoffman,

How do you know? See my previous comments
>>Yes, since the trigger is Insert After you will get the values when you do the select.<<
That is only true if a single row is Inserted. Again, read up on how Triggers really work.

Ok, so maybe I'm going about this wrong.
I have the table created above that have fields from [F1] to [PolicyType] making the unique key. However they can contain Nulls. Each of the following fields are a COUNT or a SUM based on date JOINS to the tblCalendarDate table. I DO however have views for each of these calculations (Each view contains a COUNT and SUM, 4 views: Quotes, Issues, Cancels and Renewals) .
So maybe instead of a trigger, could I create the table and use a select statement for each of the fields that need calculations?
Here is the view SQL for quotes

No necessarily. Did you try my code?

It would certainly help if you had a primary key. But the code I originally posted should also work.

Is there a way to create the table and insert/replace Spaces instead of NULL. Wont that allow me to create a PRIMARY key?
And I did try your solution but without a primary key, It wont work.

Onlines 13, 28 and 29 you reference <PrimaryKey> should I just reference the Columns that are unique?
Since there was no Primary key I didnt replace them with anything.
Can you post how you would write it without the primary key reference?

One more thing, Is this going to work on all the records?
You said a trigger only works when a single row is inserted. Does a "Select into" qualify as multiple inserts?
I'm back at the office this morning (and overdue obviously). I'll try all of your suggestions and update you.
Thanks for all the time with this.

That was the point I was trying to make previously (#24365600) and why you have to join using the logical table Inserted as opposed to assiging the values to local variables.
But whether it ultimately "works" I have no clue. To be totally honest, I cannot follow entirely what you are trying to achieve.

OK So I modified the Code to use the unique columns instead of a primary key. it did not work. Attached is zip file of SQL. (2a)
A Second option is that I have views that have already summed the counts and sums that only require a single row be selected to update the inserted record. I tried to replicate the structure you've used but it hangs for a very long time. See Zip (2b)
The view is created by the code I posted 6-7 messages back.

OK here is the objective:
I have two tables
1) A table of calendar dates (cal), containing all the dates from 1/1/2006 to 12/31/2012
2) a table (PQI) that contains the following:
MasterAgencyID, ProducerID, Issue_State, Category, Line, Form, Origin, Originator, Policy_Type, QuoteDate, IssueDate, EffDate, CancelDate, Premium
I need to create a single table that groups the first 9 fields uniquelly, Counts the records and Sums the premium, for each of the Dates by way of the JOIN to the Calendar table. (therfore 4 updates) Naturally the dates will all be different therefore the Counts and Sums will be different.
Thast why I'm only trying to get the first one to work, figureing I can replicate the code to use the other dates once the first works.
I hope this helps
Thanks again.
I've tried the last code you sent and it cannot find the reference "i"

It's hard to explain a problem sometimes, so I can see how it's even harder to explain a solution to a problem that hasnt been communicated completely. Even though it wasn't the answer I was looking for, you were thorough and helpful. It helped me understand how triggers work a bit better and, most of all, it helped me realize I was going about it wrong and made me look into other options. I actually got it done with cursors and updates/inserts. So you deserve the points for all your help. Thank you very much.
