SQL Select syntax error - mysql

thanks for your help yesterday.
I am now trying to incorporate the query from yesterday into an existing query so I can show the highest itemcode's reporting group in the existing query..but I have a syntax error somewhere at my Select statement.
ERROR: Keyword SELECT not expected.
I have tried putting brackets at every possible place but still no go..can you please help? (ps-this whole query has been giving me nightmares!)

When using UNION, wrap your SELECT statements in parentheses.
e.g.
(SELECT * FROM foo)
UNION ALL
(SELECT * FROM bar)
Edit: Upon closer inspection of that monstrosity of a query, there are likely numerous other errors within it. I suggest ripping parts of it out and provide us with the smallest possible example that still causes the syntax error.

It looks like you have two totally separate queries, with no semicolon between them.
This is where I think the problem is:
. . .
WHERE T.RN >= 1)
SELECT A.OKPBRN, A.OCAREA, A.OTCCDE, A.OTCNAM, A.OTSMAN,
. . .
It would really help when you ask questions to identify the brand and version of the database you're using. Different databases support different SQL language features, so the right solution depends strongly on the technology you're using. Tag your question with the brand you use.
There are many things wrong with your query:
MySQL does not support WITH common table expressions. This is what made me think you were using Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server when you asked another question related to this query yesterday.
MySQL does not support the ROW_NUMBER() windowing function. My apologies for suggesting you use this function, I had assumed you were using a database that supports WITH so I assumed ROW_NUMBER() would be supported too. You should learn to use the LIMIT clause if you use MySQL.
Trying to put a subquery that returns multiple columns and multiple rows into a single column of your select-list.
If you're trying to make the subquery part of the select-list, then SELECT belongs in front of the subquery. You should give it a column alias too.
Complex date-conversion expressions. I would recommend storing dates in a canonical ISO form.
The original design of OVRC01, OVRC02, OVRC03, etc. This is a repeating group, which violates First Normal Form. The same is true for OCQF01, OCQF02, OCQF03, etc.
I'm not sure you're using LIKE wildcards correctly. * is not a standard wildcard for LIKE.
Indecipherable table naming and column naming conventions. It looks like an Oracle database from the 1980's. Without knowing anything about your database or the problem you're trying to solve, it's impossible to recommend another solution.

It looks you have two CTE tables but only one is named. The second starts (SELECT OTQUOT, DESC(. You could name it (i.e., change it to , CALC2 As (SELECT OTQUOT, DESC(... but I haven't the foggiest idea where you are actually wanting to use this table in the rest of your query.

mysql order by in this request

how can i add an "order by created_on asc" in this request :
(select user.first_name as prenom, user.last_name as nom, fvll.created_on, fvll.bar_code, "R" from stk_fuel_voucher_line fvll,stk_fuel_voucher fv, adm_user user
where YEAR(fvll.created_on)=? and MONTH(fvll.created_on) = ? and user.id=fv.id_user and fv.id=fvll.id_fuel_voucher and
fvll.bar_code not in
(select fvl.bar_code
from stk_fuel_voucher_line fvl, stk_fuel_voucher_book fvb
where fvl.bar_code >= fvb.first_bar_code and fvl.bar_code <=fvb.last_bar_code
and YEAR(fvl.created_on)=? and MONTH(fvl.created_on) = ?))
UNION
(select user2.first_name as prenom, user2.last_name as nom, fvll2.created_on, fvll2.bar_code, "B"
from stk_fuel_voucher fv2, stk_fuel_voucher_book fvb2, stk_fuel_voucher_line fvll2, adm_user user2
where fvll2.bar_code >= fvb2.first_bar_code and fvll2.bar_code <=fvb2.last_bar_code and user2.id=fv2.id_user and fv2.id=fvll2.id_fuel_voucher
and YEAR(fvll2.created_on)=? and MONTH(fvll2.created_on) = ?)
It looks to me like the two queries are the same, with the only difference being detecting whether there's a matching bar_code, and returning 'B' or 'R' depending.
I'd avoid the redundant rigmarole of the UNION and just do one query, with a conditional test to determine whether a 'B' or 'R' is returned.
If the intent of the UNION operator (in place of the more usual UNION ALL) is to remove duplicates from each set, we can use a GROUP BY clause or DISTINCT keyword to achieve that. (In the original query, we are guaranteed that there won't be duplicates between the two sets, on set always as an 'R', the other set always has a 'B'.
I don't have an understanding of the specification for the query, but based on what I am able to discern from the existing query, I would tend to do something like this instead:
SELECT user.first_name AS prenom
, user.last_name AS nom
, fvll.created_on AS created_on
, fvll.bar_code
, CASE WHEN ni.bar_code IS NULL THEN 'R' ELSE 'B' END AS r
FROM stk_fuel_voucher_line fvll
JOIN stk_fuel_voucher fv
ON fv.id = fvll.id_fuel_voucher
JOIN adm_user user
ON user.id = fv.id_user
LEFT
JOIN ( SELECT fvl.bar_code
FROM stk_fuel_voucher_line fvl
JOIN stk_fuel_voucher_book fvb
ON fvb.first_bar_code <= fvl.bar_code
AND fvb.last_bar_code >= fvl.bar_code
WHERE YEAR(fvl.created_on) = ?
AND MONTH(fvl.created_on) = ?
GROUP BY fvl.bar_code
) ni
ON ni.bar_code = fvll.bar_code
WHERE YEAR(fvll.created_on) = ?
AND MONTH(fvll.created_on) = ?
GROUP
BY user.first_name AS prenom
, user.last_name AS nom
, fvll.created_on
, fvll.bar_code
, CASE WHEN ni.bar_code IS NULL THEN 'R' ELSE 'B' END
ORDER
BY fv11.created_on
Again, if we aren't concerned with removing duplicates, then we could remove the GROUP BY clause.
For the date comparisons, I'd opt for comparing the raw dates, so the query could make effective use of an index range scan operation.
Rather than this:
WHERE YEAR(fvll.created_on) = ?
AND MONTH(fvll.created_on) = ?
I would write something like
WHERE fvll.created_on >= month_begin_dt + INTERVAL 0 MONTH
AND fvll.created_on >= month_begin_dt + INTERVAL 1 MONTH
with month_begin_dt representing an expression that returns the first day of the month, however that needs to get passed in, if we need to construct a DATE from a year and a month, we could do that. The end goal would be to have equivalent to:
WHERE fvll.created_on >= '2018-05-01' + INTERVAL 0 MONTH
AND fvll.created_on >= '2018-05-01' + INTERVAL 1 MONTH

how to use user defined variables in where clause

I have this query, and i m trying to use the user defined variable #noVar in my where clause to show only the records with value 'Yes' on that variable.
but when I use Having #noVar = 'Yes' as in the query below, it returns 0 result.
SELECT svcreqdetail.id, svcreqcheckin.stime as checkin, #etime:= time(timestampadd(minute, svcreqdetail.hours*60 , concat(caredate,' ', caretime))) as endtime, svcreqcheckout.stime as checkout, time_to_sec( if(svcreqcheckout.stime > svcreqcheckin.stime,
timediff(svcreqcheckout.stime, svcreqcheckin.stime),
addtime(timediff(svcreqcheckout.stime, svcreqcheckin.stime), '24:00:00.000000')))/3600 AS wrkHrs, svcreqdetail.hours,
svcreqstatus.status, #checkoutvar:= time_to_sec(timediff(svcreqcheckout.stime, #etime))/60 as checkoutvar,#noVar:= if (#checkoutvar <= 15,'Yes', 'No') as noVar, qualif
FROM svcreqdetail
LEFT JOIN svcreqcheckin ON svcreqcheckin.reqid = svcreqdetail.id
LEFT JOIN svcreqcheckout ON svcreqcheckout.reqid = svcreqdetail.id
JOIN svcreqstatus ON svcreqstatus.reqdid = svcreqdetail.id
WHERE (yearweek( caredate ) = yearweek( date_sub( CURRENT_DATE, INTERVAL 1 week ) )
AND svcreqstatus.status != 'Incompleted'
AND svcreqstatus.status != 'Deleted')
having #noVar = 'Yes'
is there anyway i can test against that variable in my where clause. and thank you
I don't think you can use user-defined variables in the HAVING clause like that.
One option would be to put your existing query (without the HAVING clause) into a sub-query and filter the results using a WHERE clause outside the sub-query, like so:
SELECT *
FROM
(
<your existing query goes here>
) AS sub_query
WHERE noVar = 'Yes'

Count specific values in column

I'm trying to count the number of times multiple words appears in a column named sg_event but currently run each one separately. Does anyone know how I can combine this into one query.
select count(*) from metrics
WHERE sg_event = 'open';
select count(*) from metrics
WHERE sg_event = 'delivered';
select count(*) from metrics
WHERE sg_event = 'click';
My desired outcome is as follows,
open_count, delivered_count, click_count
You can use conditional sum for this
select
sum( case when sg_event = 'open' then 1 else 0 end ) as `open_count`,
sum( case when sg_event = 'delivered' then 1 else 0 end ) as `delivered_count`,
sum( case when sg_event = 'click' then 1 else 0 end ) as `click_count`
from metrics
You can use the standard sql feature group by:
SELECT count(*), sg_event
FROM metrics
WHERE sg_event IN ( 'open', 'delivered', 'click')
GROUP BY sg_event;
You should get something like
10 open
15 delivered
76 click
so each line get one sum.
Of course you can sort your results (e.g.: ORDER BY 1, to sort by count column)
This solution is more flexible, cause you can specify a lot more values to inspect (here for sg_event), maybe a join with a table which hold all your interested sg_events.
As shown in the answer by Abhik Chakraborty you can use the caseexpression to conditionally aggregate data, but since MySQL evaluates boolean expressions as 1 or 0 you can reduce the query further to this more compact form:
select
sum(sg_event = 'open') as `open_count`,
sum(sg_event = 'delivered') as `delivered_count`,
sum(sg_event = 'click') as `click_count`
from metrics

Simplify CASE expression used multiple times

For readability, I would like to modify the below statement. Is there a way to extract the CASE statement, so I can use it multiple times without having to write it out every time?
select
mturk_worker.notes,
worker_id,
count(worker_id) answers,
count(episode_has_accepted_imdb_url) scored,
sum( case when isnull(imdb_url) and isnull(accepted_imdb_url) then 1
when imdb_url = accepted_imdb_url then 1
else 0 end ) correct,
100 * ( sum( case when isnull(imdb_url) and isnull(accepted_imdb_url) then 1
when imdb_url = accepted_imdb_url then 1
else 0 end)
/ count(episode_has_accepted_imdb_url) ) percentage
from
mturk_completion
inner join mturk_worker using (worker_id)
where
timestamp > '2015-02-01'
group by
worker_id
order by
percentage desc,
correct desc
You can actually eliminate the case statements. MySQL will interpret boolean expressions as integers in a numeric context (with 1 being true and 0 being false):
select mturk_worker.notes, worker_id, count(worker_id) answers,
count(episode_has_accepted_imdb_url) scored,
sum(imdb_url = accepted_imdb_url or imdb_url is null and accepted_idb_url is null) as correct,
(100 * sum(imdb_url = accepted_imdb_url or imdb_url is null and accepted_idb_url is null) / count(episode_has_accepted_imdb_url)
) as percentage
from mturk_completion inner join
mturk_worker
using (worker_id)
where timestamp > '2015-02-01'
group by worker_id
order by percentage desc, correct desc;
If you like, you can simplify it further by using the null-safe equals operator:
select mturk_worker.notes, worker_id, count(worker_id) answers,
count(episode_has_accepted_imdb_url) scored,
sum(imdb_url <=> accepted_imdb_url) as correct,
(100 * sum(imdb_url <=> accepted_imdb_url) / count(episode_has_accepted_imdb_url)
) as percentage
from mturk_completion inner join
mturk_worker
using (worker_id)
where timestamp > '2015-02-01'
group by worker_id
order by percentage desc, correct desc;
This isn't standard SQL, but it is perfectly fine in MySQL.
Otherwise, you would need to use a subquery, and there is additional overhead in MySQL associated with subqueries.

Handling empty set in MySQL CASE statement

MySQL server version 5.0.45. Consider the following:
( SELECT CASE
WHEN t.group_id = 12 THEN 'yes'
ELSE 'no'
END
FROM sample_table t
WHERE t.user_id = 2
AND t.group_id = 12 ) as foo
This subquery of a larger statement works as I'd expect, yielding a 'yes' or 'no' string value most of the time. It's not ideal, but that's what you get for working on someone else's code!
However, sometimes the select can legitimately return an empty set, in which case foo is set to NULL. This does not actually break the application, but it's irritating. Is there a way I can guarantee that foo will always be either 'yes' or 'no', even if there are no matching rows in the table?
If it's a scalar subquery, (i. e. you use in a SELECT or WHERE clause, not in FROM clause), then use this:
IF(
EXISTS
(
SELECT NULL
FROM sample_table t
WHERE t.user_id = 2
AND t.group_id = 12
), 'yes', 'no'
)
or even this:
COALESCE(
(
SELECT 'yes'
FROM sample_table t
WHERE t.user_id = 2
AND t.group_id = 12
), 'no')
If you want the empty set to represent a "no" case, you could probably do this instead:
select ... where ... (foo = 'no' or foo is null)
This would handle both casees without having to drastically change your subquery.
