multiple query with sqlite 2nd query gives only first result - mysql

SELECT quantity, materialTypeId ,
(SELECT typeName
FROM invTypes
WHERE TypeID IN (SELECT materialTypeId
FROM invTypeMaterials
WHERE typeId= 12743
)
) AS material
FROM invTypeMaterials
WHERE TypeID=12743
so this query gives me nice results except the column material. only shows me the first entry instead of giving the name of each row.
if i run these sql seperate they work and i do see what i want. i just need them combined into 2 columns.
what i want to do is, i query one table for data, one of the column has a value wich i want to convert to a name, and that is in another table and its linked by a unique TypeID
Chilly

May be this will work :
SELECT tm.quantity, tm.materialTypeId , t.typeName
FROM invTypeMaterials tm
INNER JOIN invTypes t ON t.TypeID = tm.materialTypeId
WHERE tm.TypeID=12743

If you want to lookup the materialTypeID's name for the current record, you must not use a separate subquery but use the materialTypeID value from the outer query.
This is called a correlated subquery:
SELECT quantity, materialTypeId,
(SELECT typeName
FROM invTypes
WHERE TypeID = invTypeMaterials.materialTypeId
) AS material
FROM invTypeMaterials
WHERE TypeID=12743

mysql: I want to sum up all the values of credit from table semester and then add to another column total_credit from another table

I have the below code:
UPDATE VIEW
LEFT JOIN sem_view ON (view.semester = sem_view.semester)
SET view.t_credit = SUM(sem_view.credit)
but its not working saying invalid use of group
Data for updating must be perpared previously, in subquery. Updating must use the data which is already aggregated.
Left joining may be errorneous - it will set the value in the destination table to NULL if according data for the semester in interest in sem_view is not present. But if the logic needs this then you may use LEFT JOIN instead of INNER one in the below query.
Totally:
UPDATE `view`
JOIN ( SELECT sem_view.semester, SUM(sem_view.credit) summ
FROM sem_view
GROUP BY sem_view.semester ) data_for_updating
ON `view`.semester = data_for_updating.semester
SET `view`.t_credit = data_for_updating.summ;
PS. The text looks like view is a name of a table to be updated.

SQL Server: How to get the extra records comparing 2 tables along with another column which should not be compared

Here is the Sample Data I Have
INSERT INTO MA_NewRevised VALUES
('Vishal','SD','Col',2),
('Shivu','SD','Col',3),
('Pavithra','SD','Col',4),
('Keerthi','SD','Col',5),
('Bharath','SD','Col',6),
('Radhu','SD','Col',2),
('Vanitha','SD','Col',3),
('Anirudh','SD','Col',4),
('Amit','SD','Col',5)
INSERT INTO MA_OldValues VALUES
('Vishal','SD','Col',2),
('Shivu','SD','Col',3),
('Pavithra','SD','Col',2),
('Keerthi','SD','Col',3),
('Bharath','SD','Col',6),
('Radhu','SD','Col',2),
('Vanitha','SD','Col',3),
('Raju','SD','Col',1)
First Code:
SELECT * FROM MA_NewRevised n
EXCEPT
SELECT * FROM MA_OldValues o
The above code will give me.
Second Code
SELECT Name,Groups,CommonColumn FROM MA_NewRevised
EXCEPT
SELECT Name,Groups,CommonColumn FROM MA_OldValues
The Above Code will give me:
But the required Output is
That is, Distinct values with respect to Name, Groups, CommonColumn should be Selected along with the quantity of the new Revised table(First Table)
To your query, which does not return the extra column, but return correct rows, join the original table and retrieve the value of the extra column. Since there is no unique field in your data, you may have to join on all fields.
;with cte as (
SELECT Name,Groups,CommonColumn FROM MA_NewRevised
EXCEPT
SELECT Name,Groups,CommonColumn FROM MA_OldValues
)
select cte.*, n.Quatity -- or n.Quantity, not sure which is the correct name of your column
from cte
inner join MA_NewRevised n on cte.Name = n.Name and cte.Groups = n.Groups and cte.CommonColumn = n.CommonColumn

MYSQL, Creating a view and pulling information from two tables

Okay so I have two tables:
hscust and hssales_rep
I need to create a view that shows me the reps fname and lname (as well as the customers) and show how much the customer is over on there credit balance.
This is the code I have:
CREATE VIEW OverLimit AS
SELECT
CONCAT(hssales_rep.last,hssales_rep.first) AS Rep,
CONCAT(hscust.last,hscust.first) AS Cust,
SUM(credit_limit - balance)
FROM hscust
INNER JOIN hssales_rep ON hscust.sales_rep = hssales_rep.repid
And it returns an empty result.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
salesrep table
cust table
A CREATE VIEW statement doesn't return a resultset.
A SELECT statement can return an empty resultset. But we'd expect the SELECT statement in your view definition to return either a single row, or throw an error.
I suggest you break this down a bit.
1) What problem is being solved by the CREATE VIEW statement. Why do you need a view?
2) Before you write a CREATE VIEW statement, first develop and test a SELECT statement that returns the required resultset. Do that before you put that into a view definition.
I also strongly recommend that you qualify all column references in the SELECT statement either with the table name or (preferably) a short table alias.
If you want to return a row for each Cust with an aggregate function (e.g. SUM) in your SELECT list, then add an appropriate GROUP BY clause to your SELECT statement.
It's not clear why we would want to use a SUM aggregate function.
The difference between "credit_limit" and "balance" would be the available (remaining) credit. A negative value would indicate the balance was "over" the credit limit.
SELECT CONCAT(r.last,r.first) AS Rep
, CONCAT(c.last,c.first) AS Cust
, c.credit_limit - c.balance AS available_credit
FROM hscust c
JOIN hssales_rep r
ON c.sales_rep=r.repid
ORDER
BY CONCAT(r.last,r.first)
, CONCAT(c.last,c.first)
, c.custid
If we only want to return rows for customers that are "over" their credit limit, we can add a WHERE clause.
SELECT CONCAT(r.last,r.first) AS Rep
, CONCAT(c.last,c.first) AS Cust
, c.credit_limit - c.balance AS available_credit
FROM hscust c
JOIN hssales_rep r
ON c.sales_rep=r.repid
WHERE c.credit_limit - c.balance < 0
ORDER
BY CONCAT(r.last,r.first)
, CONCAT(c.last,c.first)
, c.custid
Again, get a SELECT statement working (returning the required resultset) before you wrap it in a CREATE VIEW.

The query gives single row query returns more than one row

I'm trying to show staff_code, staff_name and dept_name for those who have taken one book.
Here's my query:
SELECT SM.STAFF_CODE,SM.STAFF_NAME,DM.DEPT_NAME,BT.BOOK_CODE
FROM STAFF_MASTER SM,DEPARTMENT_MASTER DM,BOOK_TRANSACTIONS BT
WHERE SM.DEPT_CODE =DM.DEPT_CODE
AND SM.STAFF_CODE = (
SELECT STAFF_CODE
FROM BOOK_TRANSACTIONS
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
GROUP BY STAFF_CODE)
It gives the error:
single-row subquery returns more than one row.
How to solve this?
Change = to IN:
WHERE SM.STAFF_CODE IN (SELECT ...)
Because the select returns multiple values, using equals won't work, but IN returns true if any of the values in a list match. The list can be a hard-coded CSV list, or a select with one column like your query is.
That will fix the error, but you also need to remove BOOK_TRANSACTIONS from the table list and remove BOOK_CODE from the select list.
After making these changes, your query would look like this:
SELECT SM.STAFF_CODE,SM.STAFF_NAME,DM.DEPT_NAME
FROM STAFF_MASTER SM,DEPARTMENT_MASTER DM
WHERE SM.DEPT_CODE =DM.DEPT_CODE
AND SM.STAFF_CODE IN (
SELECT STAFF_CODE
FROM BOOK_TRANSACTIONS
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
GROUP BY STAFF_CODE)
I recommend learning the modern (now over 25 year old) JOIN syntax.

MYSQL The used SELECT statements have a different number of columns

I need to combined 2 tables with the same ids in it but i can't
SELECT stat.user_id, user.username,
SUM(stat.vertrag) AS vertrag,
SUM(stat.zubehoer) AS zubehoer,
SUM(stat.privat) AS privat,
SUM(stat.service) AS service,
SUM(stat.bs_vertrag) AS bus
FROM statistics stat
join users user on stat.user_id = user.uid
WHERE stat.user_id != '0' AND stat.datum LIKE '%$month%'
GROUP BY stat.user_id
UNION
SELECT bew.user_id, stat.user_id, user.username,
SUM(case when bew.log = 'inv_imei'
THEN
1
ELSE
0
END) AS inv
FROM user_bewegungen bew
JOIN users user ON user.uid = bew.user_id
JOIN statistics stat ON bew.user_id = stat.user_id
WHERE bew.date LIKE '%$month%'
GROUP BY bew.user_id
ORDER BY vertrag DESC
I am dont know how to go now.....
The first select is perfect, and works. now i have add a union because i need to add the row "log". Id's are also in it but i become the error
The used SELECT statements have a different number of columns
Can anyone help?
Each select statement needs to have the same number of columns. Your first one has 7:
SELECT
stat.user_id,
user.username,
SUM(stat.vertrag) AS vertrag,
SUM(stat.zubehoer) AS zubehoer,
SUM(stat.privat) AS privat,
SUM(stat.service) AS service,
SUM(stat.bs_vertrag) AS bus
Your second one has 4:
SELECT
bew.user_id,
stat.user_id,
user.username,
SUM(case when bew.log = 'inv_imei' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS inv
You can select NULL in the second SELECT for those columns that aren't in the first one.
Make the two operands of the UNION isomorphic. Rename columns and/or create NULL-valued dummy columns as necessary to give them the same shape. FOR EXAMPLE, if we wanted to form the UNION of:
SELECT a, b, c
FROM table1
and:
SELECT d, e
FROM table2
we would logically pair those columns that are of the same types (in this case, let's assume that a and e are of the same type, and that b and d are of the same type) and add an extra NULL-valued column as the third projected attribute of the right-hand SELECT, as follows:
SELECT b, a, c
FROM table1
UNION
SELECT d AS b, e AS a, NULL as c
FROM table2
If such an approach seems confusing, you can use table views to simplify the expression. In the preceding example, you could have asserted a view atop table2:
CREATE VIEW t2view( b, a, c )
AS
SELECT d, e, NULL
FROM table2
and then formulated your UNION as:
SELECT b, a, c
FROM table1
UNION
SELECT *
FROM t2view
In UNION, the field numbers should be the same. Use like this:
SELECT stat.user_id, 0, user.username, ....
SELECT bew.user_id, stat.user_id, user.username, ...
or use something else, what you know, that is a missing field there.
The data types should be the same also.
You are using MySQL Union.
UNION is used to combine the result from multiple SELECT statements into a single result set.
The column names from the first SELECT statement are used as the column names for the results returned. Selected columns listed in corresponding positions of each SELECT statement should have the same data type. (For example, the first column selected by the first statement should have the same type as the first column selected by the other statements.)
Reference: MySQL Union
Your first select statement has 7 columns and second statement has 4.
You should have same number of column and also in same order in both statement.
otherwise it shows error or wrong data.
you can see this example
there are two queries both queries have the same number of columns.
column name can be different.
select 'row1' as column1,'row2' as column2
union
select 'row3' as column11,'row4' as column222
if you change columns count, it means in first query you are selecting 2 columns and in second query you are using 3 columns then it will through an error (The used SELECT statements have a different number of columns).
select 'row1' as column1,'row2' as column2
union
select 'row3' as column11,'row4' as column222 ,'rr' as t ;
run both queries you will see differnce.
