How to select the first 5 dates from each group and put them in a single column separated by comma in Oracle? - oracle

I have a table like this:
Division
Region
Date of Last Visit
1
2
11/20/2021
1
2
11/18/2021
1
7
10/18/2021
1
7
11/19/2021
2
2
11/17/2021
2
3
09/20/2021
2
3
10/20/2021
I want to write a query that groups by the division and region columns and gives me the last 5 dates for each group separated by commas in a single column. Something like this:
Division
Region
Date of Last Visit
Today
Days since last visit
1
2
11/20/2021, 11/18/2021
sysdate
sysdate - max(date of last visit)
1
7
10/18/2021, 11/19/2021
sysdate
sysdate - max(date of last visit)
2
2
11/17/2021
sysdate
sysdate - max(date of last visit)
2
3
9/20/2021, 10/20/2021
sysdate
sysdate - max(date of last visit)
The last two columns are custom calculated columns that I also need for the final output table. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have tried a lot of things but I keep getting errors about it not being grouped properly, possibly because of the two extra columns at the end. But even without that, I am not sure how to fetch only the last 5 dates per group in oracle.
Thanks!

You want to filter the greatest-n-per-group using the ROW_NUMBER analytic function and then aggregate:
SELECT division,
region,
LISTAGG(TO_CHAR(date_of_last_visit, 'DD/MM/YYYY'), ',')
WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY date_of_last_visit DESC)
AS date_of_last_visit,
SYSDATE AS today,
TRUNC(SYSDATE - MAX(date_of_last_visit)) AS days_since_last_visit
FROM (
SELECT t.*,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY division, region
ORDER BY date_of_last_visit DESC) AS rn
FROM table_name t
)
WHERE rn <= 5
GROUP BY
division,
region
Which, for the sample data:
CREATE TABLE table_name (division, region, date_of_last_visit) as
select 1, 2, date '2021-11-20' from dual union all
select 1, 2, date '2021-11-18' from dual union all
select 1, 7, date '2021-10-18' from dual union all
select 1, 7, date '2021-11-19' from dual union all
select 2, 2, date '2021-11-17' from dual union all
select 2, 3, date '2021-09-20' from dual union all
select 2, 3, date '2021-10-20' from dual;
Outputs:
DIVISION
REGION
DATE_OF_LAST_VISIT
TODAY
DAYS_SINCE_LAST_VISIT

Oracle query to keep looking until value is not 0 anymore

I am using Oracle 11.
I have 2 tables
TblA with columns id, entity_id and effective_date.
TblADetail with columns id and value.
If Value = 0 for the effective date, I want to keep looking for the next effective date until I found value <> 0 anymore.
The below query only look for value on 3/10/21.
If value = 0, I want to look for value on 3/11/21. If that's not 0, I want to stop.
But, if that's 0, I want to look for value on 3/12/21. If that's not 0, I want to stop.
But, if that's 0, I want to keep looking until value is not 0.
How can I do that ?
SELECT SUM(pd.VALUE)
FROM TblA p,TblADetail pd
WHERE p.id = pd.id
AND p.effective_date = to_date('03/10/2021','MM/DD/YYYY')
AND TRIM (p.entity_id) = 123
Sample data:
TblA
id entity_id effective_date
1 123 3/10/21
2 123 3/11/21
3 123 3/12/21
TblADetail
id value
1 -136
1 136
2 2000
3 3000
In the above data, for entity_id 123, starting from effective_date 3/10/21, I would like to to return value 2000 (from TblADetail) effective_date 3/11/21.
So, starting from a certain date, I want the results from the minimum date that has non-zero values.
Thank you.
You can do what you need to do by grouping the sum on the effective date, and using the MIN analytic function to find the earliest date. Once you've done that, you simply need to select the date that matches the earliest date.
E.g.:
with tbla as (select 1 id, ' 123' entity_id, to_date('10/03/2021', 'dd/mm/yyyy') effective_date from dual union all
select 2 id, ' 123' entity_id, to_date('11/03/2021', 'dd/mm/yyyy') effective_date from dual union all
select 3 id, ' 123' entity_id, to_date('12/03/2021', 'dd/mm/yyyy') effective_date from dual),
tbla_detail as (select 1 id, -136 value from dual union all
select 1 id, 136 value from dual union all
select 2 id, 2000 value from dual union all
select 3 id, 3000 value from dual),
results as (select a.effective_date,
sum(ad.value) sum_value,
min(case when sum(ad.value) != 0 then a.effective_date end) over () min_effective_date
from tbla a
inner join tbla_detail ad on a.id = ad.id
where a.effective_date >= to_date('10/03/2021', 'dd/mm/yyyy')
and trim(a.entity_id) = '123'
group by a.effective_date)
select sum_value
from results
where effective_date = min_effective_date;
SUM_VALUE

oracle select two count values in one row

I need help with this select in oracle. I have table with 2 columns: (table > date, value) for example:
1.1.2017, 16
1.1.2017, 16
1.1.2017, 16
1.1.2017, 17
1.2.2017, 16
1.2.2017, 16
1.2.2017, 17
1.2.2017, 17
1.3.2017, 16
Result must be:
1.1.2017 as date, 3 as count of 16, 1 as count of 17
1.2.2017, 2, 2
1.3.2017, 1, 0
Current SQL:
select date, count(value) from table group by date, value
However, this does not return the same date with one row with count of both values.
You need conditional counting, something like this:
with
your_table ( dt, value ) as (
select to_date('1.1.2017', 'mm.dd.yyyy'), 16 from dual union all
select to_date('1.1.2017', 'mm.dd.yyyy'), 16 from dual union all
select to_date('1.1.2017', 'mm.dd.yyyy'), 16 from dual union all
select to_date('1.1.2017', 'mm.dd.yyyy'), 17 from dual union all
select to_date('1.2.2017', 'mm.dd.yyyy'), 16 from dual union all
select to_date('1.2.2017', 'mm.dd.yyyy'), 16 from dual union all
select to_date('1.2.2017', 'mm.dd.yyyy'), 17 from dual union all
select to_date('1.2.2017', 'mm.dd.yyyy'), 17 from dual union all
select to_date('1.3.2017', 'mm.dd.yyyy'), 16 from dual
)
-- end of test data; solution (SQL query) begins below this line
select dt, count(case value when 16 then 'x' end) as ct_16,
count(case value when 17 then 'x' end) as ct_17
from your_table
group by dt;
DT CT_16 CT_17

Getting Results in Horizontal way in oracle

I wrote query
select s_id from emp
where s_inv=12
i got results in this manner
1
2
3
4
5
but i want it in this format
1 2 3 4 5
If you need your result in a single column, you can use LISTAGG:
with emp(s_id, s_inv) as
(
select 1, 12 from dual union all
select 2, 12 from dual union all
select 3, 12 from dual union all
select 4, 12 from dual union all
select 5, 12 from dual
)
select listagg(s_id, ' ') within group (order by s_id)
from emp
where s_inv = 12
If you need to build many columns on the same row, you should first define how many columns will your result have

Oracle SQL Select Query Getting Max Row As a Fraction of a Rollup Total

hoping I might be able to get some advise regarding Oracle SQL…
I have a table roughly as follows (there are more columns, but not necessary for this example)…
LOCATION USER VALUE
1 1 10
1 2 20
1 3 30
2 4 10
2 5 10
2 6 20
1 60
2 40
100
I’ve used rollup to get subtotals.
What I need to do is get the max(value) row for each location and express the max(value) as a percentage or fraction of the subtotal for each location
ie:
LOCATION USER FRAC
1 3 0.5
2 6 0.5
I could probably solve this using my limited knowledge of select queries, but am guessing there must be a fairly quick and slick method..
Thanks in advance :)
Solution using analytic functions
(Please note the WITH MY_TABLE AS serving only as dummy datasource)
WITH MY_TABLE AS
( SELECT 1 AS LOC_ID,1 AS USER_ID, 10 AS VAL FROM DUAL
UNION
SELECT 1,2,20 FROM DUAL
UNION
SELECT 1,3,30 FROM DUAL
UNION
SELECT 2,4,10 FROM DUAL
UNION
SELECT 2,5,10 FROM DUAL
UNION
SELECT 2,6,20 FROM DUAL
)
SELECT LOC_ID,
USER_ID,
RATIO_IN_LOC
FROM
(SELECT LOC_ID,
USER_ID,
RATIO_IN_LOC,
RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY LOC_ID ORDER BY RATIO_IN_LOC DESC) AS ORDER_IN_LOC
FROM
(SELECT LOC_ID,
USER_ID,
VAL,
VAL/SUM(VAL) OVER (PARTITION BY LOC_ID) AS RATIO_IN_LOC
FROM MY_TABLE
)
)
WHERE ORDER_IN_LOC = 1
ORDER BY LOC_ID,
USER_ID;
Result
LOC_ID USER_ID RATIO_IN_LOC
1 3 0,5
2 6 0,5
with inputs ( location, person, value ) as (
select 1, 1, 10 from dual union all
select 1, 2, 20 from dual union all
select 1, 3, 30 from dual union all
select 2, 4, 10 from dual union all
select 2, 5, 10 from dual union all
select 2, 6, 20 from dual
),
prep ( location, person, value, m_value, total ) as (
select location, person, value,
max(value) over (partition by location),
sum(value) over (partition by location)
from inputs
)
select location, person, round(value/total, 2) as frac
from prep
where value = m_value;
Notes: Your table exists already? Then skip everything from "inputs" to the comma; your query should begin with with prep (...) as ( ...
I changed user to person since user is a keyword in Oracle, you shouldn't use it for table or column names (actually you can't unless you use double quotes, which is a very poor practice).
The query will output two or three or more rows per location if there are ties at the top. Presumably this is what you desire.
Output:
LOCATION PERSON FRAC

plsql: Getting another field values along with the aggregation values in a grouping statement

I am working on a time attendance system. I have the employees' transactions stored in the following table:
I want to get the earliest and the latest transactions for each employee including their date and type.
I am able to get the dates using grouping and aggregation. However, I am not able to figure out how to get types with them.
Would you please help me in it.
Thank you.
That's what the FIRST and LAST aggregate functions are designed for.
Here is a link to the documentation:

You could try to use analytical(or windowing functions)
select *
from
(select id, employee_id, action_date,type,
max(action_date) over (partition by employee_id) max_action_date,
min(action_date) over (partition by employee_id) min_action_date
from transaction)
where action_date in (max_action_date, min_action_date)
