GET THE RIGHT EXCHANGE RATE FROM TABLE

Hi All,

I have transaction table and a exchange rate table.

I. TableA
   1. TrsId
   2. TrsDate
   3. CurcyCode

II. TableB
    1. CurcyCode
    2. ExchangeDate
    3. ExchangeRate

My problem is how to get the right exchange rate for every transaction ?

Scenario :

1. If TrsDate  = ExchangeDate  then get the ExchangeRate.
2. If TrsDate > ExchangeDate  then get the latest ExchangeDate before the TrsDate's  ExchangeRate.

How could I do it ?

Thank you.

try this:

select TrsDate  ,(select top(1) ExchangeDate  from TableB b where b.ExchangeDate  <=a.TrsDate  order by b.ExchangeDate  desc) ExchangeDate  
from TableA a
-----------------------------------------------
DECLARE @Transaction TABLE (
       TrsID INT IDENTITY (1,1)
      ,TrsDate DATETIME
      ,CurcyCode VARCHAR(20)
)

INSERT INTO @Transaction VALUES ('2012-12-04', 'PKR')
INSERT INTO @Transaction VALUES ('2012-12-03', 'USD')
INSERT INTO @Transaction VALUES ('2012-12-07', 'PKR')
INSERT INTO @Transaction VALUES ('2012-12-08', 'USD')
INSERT INTO @Transaction VALUES ('2012-12-09', 'USD')

-----------------------------------------------
DECLARE @Exchange TABLE (
       CurcyCode VARCHAR(20)
      ,ExchangeDate DATETIME
      ,ExchangeRate MONEY
)

INSERT INTO @Exchange VALUES ('PKR', '2012-12-01', '150.00')
INSERT INTO @Exchange VALUES ('USD', '2012-12-02', '1.61')
INSERT INTO @Exchange VALUES ('USD', '2012-12-03', '1.59')
INSERT INTO @Exchange VALUES ('PKR', '2012-12-04', '153.50')
INSERT INTO @Exchange VALUES ('PKR', '2012-12-05', '155.00')
INSERT INTO @Exchange VALUES ('USD', '2012-12-06', '1.65')
INSERT INTO @Exchange VALUES ('PKR', '2012-12-10', '157.50')
INSERT INTO @Exchange VALUES ('USD', '2012-12-11', '1.75')
-----------------------------------------------


SELECT
       *
      ,(
            SELECT TOP 1 e.ExchangeRate
            FROM @Exchange e
            WHERE e.CurcyCode = t.CurcyCode AND e.ExchangeDate <= t.TrsDate
            ORDER BY e.ExchangeDate DESC
      ) AS ExchangeRate
FROM
      @Transaction t
Try this query and get back if you face any problem:

SELECT       B.ExchangeRate,
              TOP 1 CASE WHEN A.TrsDate  > B.ExchangeDate
                               THEN B.ExchangeRate
              END
FROM             TableA A
INNER JOIN       TableB B
ON       A.CurcyCode = B.CurcyCode
GROUP BY B.ExchangeRate
ORDER BY B.ExchangeDate DESC;

Hi harshada_sonawane,

Should check CurcyCode too.

Thank you.
Hi RehanYousaf,

Your code has null value result.

Thank you.
Hi k_murli_krishna,

Your code get the below message :

Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 2
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'TOP'.

Thank you.

Hi  pratima_mcs,

Your code error here :

select clause more than columns (Select TrsID ,ExchangeRate)

Thank you.

try like this....

Open in new window

Select TrsID ,Max(ExchangeDate),ExchangeRate
ExchangeRate

When we use max() should have group by.
It has double ExchangeRate.

Thank you.
Hi Saurv,

Your code not work for ExchangeDate < TrsDate

Thank you.
Hi  emi_sastra if you provide some sample data it will help rather than we assuming
Can you post some sample data  for both tables and the output data-set   which you required as result...

that will be helpfull
I will provide my sample data.

Thank you.
Please see below attachment

Thank you.
TABLEA.xlsx
TABLEB.xlsx
It is very difficult to get it in a single query since one situation will fetch multiple rows and the second one a single row. The problem can be solved in two different queries as follows:

Query 1: If TrsDate  = ExchangeDate  then get the ExchangeRate.

SELECT CASE WHEN A.TrsDate  = B.ExchangeDate
                               THEN B.ExchangeRate
                                END
FROM             TableA A
INNER JOIN       TableB B
ON       A.CurcyCode = B.CurcyCode;

Query 2: If TrsDate > ExchangeDate  then get the latest ExchangeDate before the TrsDate's  ExchangeRate.

SELECT TOP 1 CASE WHEN A.TrsDate  > B.ExchangeDate
                               THEN B.ExchangeRate
                      END
FROM             TableA A
INNER JOIN       TableB B
ON       A.CurcyCode = B.CurcyCode
GROUP BY B.ExchangeRate
ORDER BY B.ExchangeDate DESC;

You can try adding more columns in both query's SELECT list if you require any.

For obtaining in a single query, you can try:

SELECT CASE WHEN A.TrsDate  = B.ExchangeDate
                               THEN B.ExchangeRate
                                END
FROM             TableA A
INNER JOIN       TableB B
ON       A.CurcyCode = B.CurcyCode
UNION
SELECT TOP 1 CASE WHEN A.TrsDate  > B.ExchangeDate
                               THEN B.ExchangeRate
                      END
FROM             TableA A
INNER JOIN       TableB B
ON       A.CurcyCode = B.CurcyCode
GROUP BY B.ExchangeRate
ORDER BY B.ExchangeDate DESC;

The SELECT list in UNION should be of same number and type of columns.
Hi  k_murli_krishna,

Your code lack of group by and has null result.

Thank you.
Hi  emi_sastra you have posted the data thanks but what format you want your results in?
I have modified my code slightly ... If you get any Nulls can you send me the specific TrsDate and CurcyCode ... as it will help debug

H pratima_mcs,

- inner join TableB B2 on X.TrsID = B2.TrsID
B2 has no TrsId column.

- Select TrsID ,Max(ExchangeDate)
ExchangeRate
Why Max(ExchangeDate) to ExchangeRate ?

Thank you.
Hi All,

It seems that harshada_sonawane code solve the problem.

I've just tested at a glance.

Any idea of the code, is it perfect ?

Thank you.

@ harshada_sonawane and RehanYousaf

What if the selected ExchangeDate  has  ExchangeRate  = 0 ?

Thank you.
depends on what you want ... do you want to to keep 0 or look for value which is not 0?

Since if the ExchangeRate  same as before there will no adding data for the same rate  until its rate  change.

Thank you.
For example the rate is change weekly, once a week.

Thank you.
Yes, my last query will work
Try update ExchangeRate  to 0
for USD
where month = 6 and day between 12 and 15

Then run your query. What are the result ?

Thank you.
you mean do something like

INSERT INTO @Exchange VALUES ('USD', '2012-06-15', '0')
update TableB
set ExchangeRate  = 0
WHERE CURCYCODE = 'USD'
AND MONTH(ExchangeDate) = 6
and day(ExchangeDate) between 12 and 15

Run the above command and test your query to see your result.

Thank you.

Thank you.
I added the follwoing script as you requested

You add

and e.ExchangeRate != 0 to your previous code, right ?

Thank you.
Hi RehanYousaf,

I think your code is perfect and your solution came the first and after revised to check the exchange rate. Thus the point is all yours.

Thank you very much for your help.
