I've searched around but can't find the answer I'm looking for.
I have two tables, each has a date field called last_update_date. I want to search which of the two tables has the most recent date and only return that date.
I tried this query hoping it will order the two tables last_update_date field and return that result but the query does not work. Any help would be appreciated.
"Select last_update_date from Table1, Table2 order by last_update_date DESC Limit 1"
SELECT MAX(last_update_date)
FROM (
SELECT MAX(last_update_date) as last_update_date
FROM Table1
UNION ALL
SELECT MAX(last_update_date)
FROM Table2
) tMax
select * from
( select last_update_date from table1
UNION ALL
select last_update_date from table2
) order by last_update_date;
SELECT MAX(A.last_update_date)
(SELECT last_update_date FROM Table1
UNION ALL
SELECT last_update_date FROM Table2) A;

I have 2 tables t1 and t2 as follows
I want to select the results from both the tables with a UNION and sort on qty column. The query that I have written is
(SELECT * FROM t1)
UNION ALL
(SELECT * FROM t2)
ORDER BY qty ASC;
That gives me the below result
Can some 1 tell me what is going wrong here? As per the query I should get qty column sorted in ascending order. I have also tried
(SELECT * FROM t1
UNION ALL
SELECT * FROM t2)
ORDER BY qty ASC;
No luck with that either. If I do sort with id or item it works perfectly fine. This is really frustrating. Please help.

Hello i am having two different table with same field created_date (datetime)
now i want records which counts daywise records with joining table i have done for individual counting as below query :
SELECT DATE(created_date), COUNT(*) FROM table1 GROUP BY DAY(created_date)
SELECT DATE(created_date), COUNT(*) FROM table2 GROUP BY DAY(created_date)
and i am getting results for individuals something like this:
RESULT I NEED :
DATE(created_date) count(table1) count(table2)
2016-12-01 10 3
2016-12-02 1 0
2016-12-05 1 0
2016-11-29 1 0
2016-11-30 4 1
Now i just want to join these result WITH INDIVIDUAL VIEW COUNT ACCORDING TO TABLE can anyone please help me out with this profile....
First take a UNION between your two tables, then use conditional aggregation to determine the counts for each of the two tables. Note that I introduce a field called table_name to keep track of data from each of the two tables.
SELECT t.created_date,
SUM(CASE WHEN t.table_name = 'one' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS count_table_one,
SUM(CASE WHEN t.table_name = 'two' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS count_table_two
FROM
(
SELECT DATE(created_date) AS created_date, 'one' AS table_name
FROM table1
UNION ALL
SELECT DATE(created_date), 'two'
FROM table2
) t
GROUP BY t.created_date
I used DATE consistently everywhere to make the query correct.
Try This:
SELECT created_date, sum(countTable1) countTable1,
sum(countTable2) countTable2
FROM (
SELECT DATE(created_date) created_date, COUNT(*) countTable1, NULL countTable2
FROM table1 GROUP BY DAY(created_date)
UNION ALL
SELECT DATE(created_date) created_date, NULL, COUNT(*) countTable2
FROM table2 GROUP BY DAY(created_date)) t GROUP BY t.created_date
You have a problem in your queries, you are grouping by DAY(date) and showing 'date' so the result will be first date with day(date), yet repeating it to avoid misunderstanding :)
select IFNULL(A.cd, B.cd), A.cnt, B.cnt from
(SELECT DAY(created_date) d, DATE(created_date) cd, COUNT(*) cnt
FROM table1 GROUP BY DAY(created_date)) as A
LEFT JOIN
(SELECT DAY(created_date) d, DATE(created_date) cd , COUNT(*) cnt
FROM table2 GROUP BY DAY(created_date)) B ON B.d = A.d
Its not too hard just use union if no need to allow duplicate row else use union all for all(means allow duplicate as well).
SELECT DATE(created_date), COUNT(*) FROM table1 GROUP BY DAY(created_date)
UNION
SELECT DATE(created_date), COUNT(*) FROM table2 GROUP BY DAY(created_date)
SELECT T.create_date,ISNULL(T.count,0)AS Counttable1,ISNULL(X.count,0)AS Counttable2 FROM(SELECT DATE(created_date) AS create_date,COUNT(*) as count FROM table1 GROUP BY DAY(created_date)) AS T LEFTJOIN(SELECT DATE(created_date) AS create_date, COUNT(*) as count FROM table2 GROUP BY DAY(created_date))AS X ON T.create_date=X.create_date
You actually need a SQL UNION. JOIN natuarually eliminate counts becuase the maytch fields. I.e. if you had 2016-12-01 in both table1 andtable2 then a JOIN on created_date would give you a count of 1 instead of a count of 2.
SELECT DATE(total.created_date), COUNT(*)
FROM (
SELECT created_date FROM table1
UNION ALL
SELECT created_date FROM table2) as total
GROUP BY total.created_date
HERE you simply union the two tables since they have a matching column name. Then you get back every date from both tables. That is in the inner query. The outer query then does the counting.
Hope that makes sense.
Good day.
I seem to be struggling with what seems like a simple problem.
I have a table that has a value connected to a date (Monthly) for a finite number of ID's
ie. Table1
ID | Date ---| Value
01 | 2015-01 | val1
01 | 2015-02 | val2
02 | 2015-01 | val1
02 | 2015-03 | val2
So ID: 02 does not have a value for date 2015-02.
I would like to return all ID's and Dates that do not have a value.
Date range is: select distinct date from Table1
I can't seem to think outside the realms of selecting and joining on the same table.
I need to include the ID in my select to I can somehow select the ID and Date range that exists for that ID and compare to the entire date range, to get all the dates for each ID that isn't in the "entire" date range.
Please advise.
Thank you
Not very clear about your last two sentences. But you can play with the following query with different #max_days and #min_date:
-- DROP TABLE table1;
CREATE TABLE table1(ID int not null, `date` date not null, value varchar(64) not null);
INSERT table1(ID,`date`,value)
VALUES (1,'2015-01-01','v1'),(1,'2015-01-02','v2'),(2,'2015-01-01','v1'),(2,'2015-01-03','v2'),(4,'2015-01-01','v1'),(4,'2015-01-04','v2');
SELECT * FROM table1;
SET #day=0;
SET #max_days=5;
SET #min_date='2015-01-01';
SELECT i.ID,d.`date`
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT ID FROM table1) i
CROSS JOIN (
SELECT TIMESTAMPADD(DAY,#day,#min_date) AS `date`,#day:=#day+1 AS day_num
FROM table1 WHERE #day<#max_days) d
LEFT JOIN table1 t
ON t.ID=i.ID
AND t.`date`=d.`date`
WHERE t.`date` IS NULL
ORDER BY i.ID,d.`date`;
I now understand your requirement of dates being taken from the table; you want to find any gaps in the date ranges for each id.
This does what you need, but can probably be improved. Explanation below and you can view a working example.
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS Table1;
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS Year_Month_Calendar;
CREATE TABLE Table1 (
id INTEGER
,date CHAR(7)
,value CHAR(4)
);
INSERT INTO Table1
VALUES
(1,'2015-01','val1')
,(1,'2015-02','val2')
,(2,'2015-01','val1')
,(2,'2015-03','val1');
CREATE TABLE Year_Month_Calendar (
date CHAR(10)
);
INSERT INTO Year_Month_Calendar
VALUES
('2015-01')
,('2015-02')
,('2015-03');
SELECT ID_Year_Month.id, ID_Year_Month.date, Table1.id, Table1.date
FROM (
SELECT Distinct_ID.id, Year_Month_Calendar.date
FROM Year_Month_Calendar
CROSS JOIN
( SELECT DISTINCT id FROM Table1 ) AS Distinct_ID
WHERE Year_Month_Calendar.date >= (SELECT MIN(date) FROM Table1 WHERE id=Distinct_ID.ID)
AND Year_Month_Calendar.date <= (SELECT MAX(date) FROM Table1 WHERE id=Distinct_ID.ID)
) AS ID_Year_Month
LEFT JOIN Table1
ON ID_Year_Month.id = Table1.id AND ID_Year_Month.date = Table1.date
-- WHERE Table1.id IS NULL
ORDER BY ID_Year_Month.id, ID_Year_Month.date
Explanation
You need a calendar table which contains all dates (year/months) to cover the data you are querying.
CREATE TABLE Year_Month_Calendar (
date CHAR(10)
);
INSERT INTO Year_Month_Calendar
VALUES
('2015-01')
,('2015-02')
,('2015-03');
The inner select creates a table with all dates between the min and max date for each id.
SELECT Distinct_ID.id, Year_Month_Calendar.date
FROM Year_Month_Calendar
CROSS JOIN
( SELECT DISTINCT id FROM Table1 ) AS Distinct_ID
WHERE Year_Month_Calendar.date >= (SELECT MIN(date) FROM Table1 WHERE id=Distinct_ID.ID)
AND Year_Month_Calendar.date <= (SELECT MAX(date) FROM Table1 WHERE id=Distinct_ID.ID)
This is then LEFT JOINED to the original table to find the missing rows.
If you only want to return the missing row (my query displays the whole table to show how it works), add a WHERE clause to restrict the output to those rows where an id and date is not returned from Table1
Original answer before comments
You can do this without a tally table, since you say
Date range is: select distinct date from Table1
I've slightly changed the field names to avoid reserved words in SQL.
SELECT id_table.ID, date_table.`year_month`, table1.val
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT ID FROM table1) AS id_table
CROSS JOIN
(SELECT DISTINCT `year_month` FROM table1) AS date_table
LEFT JOIN table1
ON table1.ID=id_table.ID AND table1.`year_month` = date_table.`year_month`
ORDER BY id_table.ID
I've not filtered the results, in order to show how the query is working. To return the rows where only where a date is missing, add WHERE table1.year_month IS NULL to the outer query.
SQL Fiddle
You will need a tally table(s) or month/year tables. So you can then generate all of the potential combinations you want to test with. As far as exactly how to use it your example could use some expanding on such as last 12 months, last3 months, etc. but here is an example that might help you understand what you are looking for:
http://rextester.com/ZDQS5259
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS Tbl (
ID INTEGER
,Date VARCHAR(10)
,Value VARCHAR(10)
);
INSERT INTO Tbl VALUES
(1,'2015-01','val1')
,(1,'2015-02','val2')
,(2,'2015-01','val1')
,(2,'2015-03','val1');
SELECT yr.YearNumber, mn.MonthNumber, i.Id
FROM
(
SELECT 2016 as YearNumber
UNION SELECT 2015
) yr
CROSS JOIN (
SELECT 1 MonthNumber
UNION SELECT 2
UNION SELECT 3
UNION SELECT 4
UNION SELECT 5
UNION SELECT 6
UNION SELECT 7
UNION SELECT 8
UNION SELECT 9
UNION SELECT 10
UNION SELECT 11
UNION SELECT 12
) mn
CROSS JOIN (
SELECT DISTINCT ID
FROM
Tbl
) i
LEFT JOIN Tbl t
ON yr.YearNumber = CAST(LEFT(t.Date,4) as UNSIGNED)
AND mn.MonthNumber = CAST(RIGHT(t.Date,2) AS UNSIGNED)
AND i.ID = t.ID
WHERE
t.ID IS NULL
The basic idea to determine what you don't know is to generate all possible combinations of something could be. E.g. Year X Month X DISTINCT Id and then join back to figure out what is missing.
Probably not the prettiest but this should work.
select distinct c.ID, c.Date, d.Value
from (select a.ID, b.Date
from (select distinct ID from Table1) as a, (select distinct Date from Table1) as b) as c
left outer join Table1 d on (c.ID = d.ID and c.Date = d.Date)
where d.Value is NULL
is it possible in an SQL query to add UNION after order by 1
SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE etc='1' ORDER BY 11;
can we add a union select query beside 11 to be like this ?
SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE etc='1' ORDER BY 11 UNION select etc etc etc ...;
In MySQL, you can enclose the order by clause within a subquery and union the results of multiple subqueries; something like this:
SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE etc='1' ORDER BY 11) sq1
UNION ALL
SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM table2 WHERE etc='2' ORDER BY 12) sq2
...
Maybe something like this:
SELECT
*,
11 AS orderby
FROM
table1
WHERE
etc='1'
UNION
select
*,
10 AS orderby
FROM
table2
ORDER BY
orderby
You can use like this:
SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE etc='1'
union
SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE etc='1'
ORDER BY any_column
You can only use ORDER BY at the end of the query after the last union. Basically all SELECTs are done first, then the entire result set is ordered.
Hi I have a query like that
SELECT column1,MAX(column2) AS MAX FROM
table1 GROUP BY column1 ORDER BY MAX
DESC;
and i have a second table which name table2 and has same column2 but different column1 name,
I want to apply this query to union of these table,when i try this
SELECT column1,MAX(column2) AS MAX FROM
((SELECT * FROM table1) union (SELECT
* FROM table2)) GROUP BY column1 ORDER BY MAX DESC;
I got this error "ERROR 1248 (42000): Every derived table must have its own alias"
how can i do that? thanks for help...
The alias comes after the derived table definition,
SELECT column1,MAX(column2) AS MAX FROM
(SELECT * FROM table1 union SELECT * FROM table2) t3
GROUP BY column1 ORDER BY MAX DESC;
The alias is t3
