I need to insert data of one table to another table. All the values are from the table except one SO_ID. It is coming from the Item on the page. How do I do it?
insert into T_SORDER_ITEM_INWARD
(
select sd.ID, SO_ID
into :P25_SO_ID, sd.STOCK_ID,sd.ITEM_ID,sd.UOM_ID,
sd.ITEM_CONDITION_ID,sd.ORIGINAL,sd.ACTUAL,sd.WIDTH,sd.LENGTH,sd.STOCKQTY,
sd.KANTA,sd.RATE,sd.PACKET, sd.LABEL_METER, sd.EXCESS_SHORT,sd.LOCATION_ID,
sd.CLIENT_INITIAL, sd.FIN_YEAR, sd.SERIAL_NO
from T_STOCK_DETAIL sd join t_stock_master sm
on sd.stock_id = sm.stock_id
where sm.customer_id = p25_customer
)
A simplified example:
insert into another_table (id, name, location)
select :P25_SO_ID,
t.name,
t.location
from this_table t
Always name all columns you're inserting into (first line in my example).
Your query is impossible to understand. Not just because syntax is wrong, but because we have no idea which column is supposed to get which value.

As the question states, I'm trying to save calculated data, that is the result of a select statement, to another table. In this Image, the column with green outline is a database column and the columns with red outline are calculated based on that column, I want to save the Red outlined columns to another table where the column names would be same.
This looks like a classic report. Is it? If so, it is result of a select statement. As it calculates all values you're interested in, you'd use it in an insert statement. For example, you could create a button and create a process that fires when that button is pressed. It would then
insert into target_table (emp_id, salary, house_rent, ...)
select emp_id, ... whatever you select in report's query
from ...
However: data changes. What will you do when something - that is used to calculate those values - is changed? Will you delete those rows and insert new ones? Update existing values? Add yet another row?
If you'd update existing values, consider using merge as it is capable of inserting rows (in when not matched clause, in your case) , as well as updating rows (in when matched). That would look like this:
merge into target_table t
using (select emp_id, ... whatever you select in report's query
from ...
) x
on (t.emp_id = x.emp_id)
when matched then update set
t.salary = x.salary,
t.house_rent = x.house_rent,
...
when not matched then insert (emp_id, salary, house_rent, ...)
values (x.emp_id, x.salary, x.house_rent, ...);
You can use the INSERT INTO SELECT statement - plenty of examples available on google
INSERT INTO another_table (
emp_id,
col1,
col2
)
SELECT emp_id,
calculated_col1,
calculated_col2
FROM first_table
I'm trying to copy data from a table called accounts into an empty table called accounts_by_area_code. I have the following fields in accounts_by_area_code: acct_num INT, first_name STRING, last_name STRING, phone_number STRING. The table is partitioned by areacode (the first 3 digits of phone_number.
I need to use a SELECT statement to extract the area code into an INSERT INTO TABLE command to copy the speciļ¬ed columns to the new table, dynamically partitioning by area code.
This is my last attempt:
impala-shell -q "INSERT INTO TABLE accounts_by_areacode (acct_num, first_name, last_name, phone_number, areacode) PARTITION (areacode) SELECT STRLEFT (phone_number,3) AS areacode FROM accounts;"
This generates ERROR: AnalysisException: Column permutation and PARTITION clause mention more columns (5) than the SELECT / VALUES clause and PARTITION clause return (1). I'm not convinced I have even the basic syntax correct so any help would be great as I'm new to Impala.
Impala creates partitions dynamically based on data. So not sure why you want to create an empty table with partitions because it will be auto created while inserting new data.
Still, I think you can create empty table with partitions like this-
impala-shell -q "INSERT INTO TABLE accounts_by_areacode (acct_num) PARTITION (areacode)
SELECT CAST(NULL as STRING), STRLEFT (phone_number,3) AS areacode FROM accounts;"
I am using Toad for oracle 12c. I need to copy a table and data (40M) from one shcema to another (prod to test). However there is an unique key(not the PK for this table) called record_Id col which has something data like this 3.000*******19E15. About 2M rows has same numbers(I believe its because very large number) which are unique in prod. When I try to copy it violets the unique key of that col. I am using toad "export data to another schema" function to copy the data.
when I execute query in prod
select count(*) from table_name
OR
select count(distinct(record_id) from table_name
Both query gives the exact same numbers of data.
I don't have DBA permission. How do I copy all data without violating unique key of the table.
Thanks in advance!
You can use UPSERT for decisional INSERT or UPDATE or you may write small procedure for this.
you may consider to use NOT EXISTS, but your data is big and it might not be resource efficient.
insert into prod_tab
select * from other_tab t1 where NOT exists (
select 1 from prod_tab t2 where t1.id = t2.id
);
In Oracle you can use a MERGE query for that.
The following query proceeds as follows for each data row :
if the source record_id does not yet exist in the target table, a new record is inserted
else, the existing record is updated with source values
For the sake of the example, I assumed that there are two other columns in the table : column1 and column2.
MERGE INTO target_table t1
USING (SELECT * from source_table t2)
ON (t1.record_id = t2.record_id)
WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE SET
t1.column1 = t2.column1,
t1.column2 = t2.column2
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN INSERT
(record_id, column1, column2) VALUES (t2.record_id, t2.column1, t2.column2)
I have two db2 tables, table one contains rows of constant data with id as one of the columns. second table contains id column which is foreign key to id column in first table and has 3 more varchar columns.
I am trying to insert rows into second table, where entry into id col is based on a where clause and the remaining columns get values from outside.
table1 has columns id, t1c1, t1c2, t1c3
table2 has columns id, t2c1, t2c2, t2c3
to insert into table2, I am trying this query:
insert into table2 values
(select id from table1 where t1c2 like 'xxx', 'abc1','abc2');
I know it is something basic I am missing here.
Please help correcting this query.
In Oracle I have two tables. Both are populated with data and have a timestamp column.
One table has that column filled with data, the other table doesn't. But I need to get the data from the table that does into the column of the other table based on a match of another column.
Each has 'code' so the timestamp from the one table should only be put in the timestamp of the other table where the codes match.
I've tried cursors etc, but it seems like I'm missing something.
Any suggestions?
It sounds like you want a correlated update. This will update every row of destinationTable with the timestamp_col from sourceTable where there is a match on the code column.
UPDATE destinationTable d
SET timestamp_col = (SELECT s.timestamp_col
FROM sourceTable s
WHERE s.code = d.code )
WHERE EXISTS( SELECT 1
FROM sourceTable s
WHERE s.code = d.code )
Just for completeness, I think I would have done something like this (untested), if the destination has a primary key or unique column:
UPDATE (
SELECT d.primary_key AS pk, d.timestamp_col AS dest_col, MAX(s.timestamp_col) AS src_col
FROM dest d
JOIN src s ON d.code = s.code
GROUP BY pk, dest_col
) j
SET j.dest_col = j.src_col
