structure columns in query
Posted on 2012-12-27
I have a query that uses a union to get the results that I need, but I am having problems understanding how I need to change my query to be able to format the same results in a more readable manner. I am ending with a larger number of columns that I actually need.
The query is simple, I think the complexity comes in how it needs to be structured. May be I need to use CASE statements? I am not sure but any help would be appreciated.
My query:
the results:
how I need it to be (mock up with excel):
Thank you very much for your help.
If more details need to be added, please let me know.

if you attach SQL script to create the tables with data I can help you to get closer to what you want
It is better to use crystal reports or ssrs for such layouts but if you only want to to use sql for the job then one of the solutions is as follows

I have a question regarding your code example. I see that you use a variable for ItemNumber. What if I don't need to specify an Item Number? What if I need to retrieve all Items? Should I just remove the variable and the WHERE clasues?
Thank you for your example, it is awesome.

Nope, removing where clause will have different effect, what you need to do is use while loop with the two inserts

DROP TABLE #Product
@RehanYousaf, thank you again for your help. Your query results are impeccable.
I would like to understand something. I noticed that due to the need for data for you to show me how the query works, you are using hard coded values and the multipe INSERT statements.
How would the query change, in which places, to make it data driven instead that using hard coded values? Do I just remove the INSERT statements and replace them with the SELECT statements from my original query posted at the top of this question?
I am not sure how to make this change, if you could offer some guidance, that would be kind.
Thank you very much.

Hi,
I had to create variable tables and insert data into them so that I can write the script
Variable table syntax is like: DECLARE @SalesLine TABLE
and then I used the follwoing script to insert data into variable table: INSERT INTO @SalesLine VALUES
What you have to do is replace variable table with your own and replace columns with your own
P.S. @Result and #Product are extra tables to process data

Hi again RehanYousaf,
Sorry I have been busy with other tasks and just today I am able to get back to this work.
While removing some of your code and starting to use my actual views, I came up to this question, what abou parts such as:
Do I still need these parts?

@RehanYousaf,
I think I was somehow able to modify the script you wrote. Unfortunately I am still struggling to make it work.
When an Item Number is contained in multiple orders, lets say 5 orders (numbers prefixed SB), I get duplicate results, based on the number of orders, in the screen shot example, this is five times.
Do you know any recommendation on how to work this issue out? And, how would I be able to avoid displaying dates that are zeroes and interpreted by SQL server as 1900-01-01 00:00:00.000?
I have attached the revised query and a screen shot of the results after the modifications.
Thank you very much for your help and patience.

Hi,
The Item details come from the view [nav].[vStd_SalesLineWithC
I tried your new script but I see the same results
The correct results should show ideally the same way you showed me with the hard coded values, like (the spaces in between each column due to my poor text editing):
Thank you much for your help.

The correct results should show ideally the same way you showed me with the hard coded values, like (the spaces in between each column due to my poor text editing):

I am not sure what I am doing wrong, but I see no changes after the second time you posted the latest script.
here is another item to illustrate the point:
item 10264 contains two order numbers (order numbers are the ones that start with SB)
and the same results is shown two times, as per each order that there is. That is my assumption.
how can i make sure to display blanks instead that the 1900-01-01 00:00:00.000 date?
I am not sure how to do this.

for more date formats you can check the link : http://www.sql-server-helper.com/tips/date-formats.aspx
once you have updated ... can you send me your final script to review ... I will try to fix default date issue

@RehanYousaf,
Thank you very much for your help on this query. I truly appreciate and value the help I have received from you. It has been a lifesaver.
I need to add another thing to the result. I have that query ready, but this question is getting super long, and I have gotten the answer I was originally looking for already.
I will open a new question, and post the link to that question here. Hopefully I will be lucky and get your help again, it should not be too cumbersome.
At any rate, thank you very much for your kind help and instruction.

@RehanYousaf,
I think I spoke too soon, I am seeing duplicates in the results again :/
I am using the script at the one I uploaded on comment id 38755345

Seems like this Item Number is entered twice in the database and assigned to two different but at the same time similar items
10559 WILTON WHITE 1911-919x WAFER < the only difference is the 'x'
10559 WILTON WHITE 1911-919 WAFER
when I look at the results outside your code, I see this:
There is only one order to 10559 WILTON WHITE 1911-919x WAFER
Would this be throwing your code off? Is there a way to work around it? I see this same case happening to another item in the database.
thank you.

thank you.
the problem is on this part I think,
the description column is the problem. how could i retrieve the description although different but with same item number. i just care for the description that does not contain the 'x'
;WITH cteSalesLineItem
AS (
SELECT DISTINCT
[ItemNumber]
,[Description]
FROM
[nav].[vStd_SalesLineWithCustomerName]
)
SELECT
*
,ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY ItemNumber) AS 'RowNo'
INTO
#SalesLineItem
FROM
cteSalesLineItem

Try this to remove duplicates
MAX([Description]) AS [Description]
whichever suits you
as for the new question ... i will try to look at it tomorrow
;WITH cteSalesLineItem
AS (
SELECT
[ItemNumber]
,MIN([Description]) AS [Description]
FROM
[nav].[vStd_SalesLineWithCustomerName]
GROUP BY
[ItemNumber]
)
SELECT
*
,ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY ItemNumber) AS 'RowNo'
INTO
#SalesLineItem
FROM
cteSalesLineItem
MAX([Description]) AS [Description]
