Oracle Select via loop in Stored Procedure - oracle

I'm trying to select data from a table based on a array of filters calculated from another query. I have tried to describe what I'm trying to accomplish
in pseudo code below.
SELECT Equipment, MIN(TIME) as FractionStart, MAX(TIME) as FractionEnd
INTO FRACTIONS
FROM DATA
WHERE ID = 1
GROUP BY (Equipment)
/* Pseudo code */
FOR EACH ROW IN FRACTIONS
INSERT INTO MYTABLE (SELECT * FROM EVENTTABLE WHERE EVTTIME BETWEEN ROW.FractionStart AND ROW.FractionEnd AND EVTAREA = ROW.Equipment);
FOR NEXT;
RETURN MYTABLE;
I have been looking at cursors, but I haven't figured out how I can add rows to them in a loop. Am I looking at the right functions? or is there a better way to solve this?

Can you try this?
INSERT INTO MYTABLE
(
SELECT * FROM EVENTTABLE te,
(
SELECT Equipment, MIN(TIME) as FractionStart, MAX(TIME) as FractionEnd
FROM DATA
WHERE ID = 1
GROUP BY (Equipment)
) td
WHERE te.EVTTIME BETWEEN td.FractionStart AND td.FractionEnd AND te.EVTAREA = td.Equipment
);

can i set up an SSRS report where users input parameters to a table

I have an oracle query that uses a created table as part of the code. Every time I need to run a report I delete current data and import the new data I receive. This is one column of id's. I need to create a report on SSRS in which the user can input this data into said table as a parameter. I have designed a simple report that they can enter some of the id's into a parameter, but there may be times when they need to enter in a few thousand id's, and the report already runs long. Here is what the SSRS code currently says:
select distinct n.id, n.notes
from notes n
join (
select max(seq_num) as seqnum, id from notes group by id) maxresults
on n.id = maxresults.ID
where n.seq_num = maxresults.seqnum
and n.id in (#MyParam)
Is there a way to have MyParam insert data into a table I would join called My_ID, joining as Join My_Id id on n.id = id.id
I do not have permissions to create functions or procedures in the database.
Thank you
You may try the trick with MATERIALIZE hint which normally forces Oracle to create a temporary table :
WITH cte1 AS
( SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ 1 as id FROM DUAL
UNION ALL
SELECT 2 DUAL
)
SELECT a.*
FROM table1 a
INNER JOIN cte1 b ON b.id = a.id

Oracle - What is the order of statement when using functions for filter in where clause

Refer Table WORKQUEUELOG with columns (ID,QueueTypeId,CreateDateTime,WorkId,InQ,OutQ)
There is an index available for (QueueTypeId,CreateDateTime,Id)
When trying to read the first X number of records with following query it is going for a full table search.
OPEN a_CursorHandle FOR
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT * FROM WORKQUEUELOG tbl
WHERE EX_CLS_WQLOG.FILTER(
tbl.QueueTypeId,
tbl.CreateDateTime,
NULL) = 1
AND EX_CLS_WQLOG.VALIDATION(
tbl.ID ,
tbl.WorkId ,
tbl.InQ ) = 1
ORDER BY tbl.QueueTypeId ASC,tbl.CreateDateTime ASC,tbl.Id ASC)
WHERE ROWNUM <= a_MaxCount;
We changed the query as following and started using the index for reading.
ie Validaiton function first and filter function as second.
OPEN a_CursorHandle FOR
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT * FROM WORKQUEUELOG tbl
WHERE EX_CLS_WQLOG.VALIDATION(
tbl.ID ,
tbl.WorkId,
tbl.InQ ) = 1
AND EX_CLS_WQLOG.FILTER(
tbl.QueueTypeId,
tbl.CreateDateTime,
NULL) = 1
ORDER BY tbl.QueueTypeId ASC,tbl.CreateDateTime ASC,tbl.Id ASC)
WHERE ROWNUM <= a_MaxCount;
What is the order of processing the SQL statement in oracle .? left to right or right to left.
From the above example this seems to be right to left . is this a consistent behavior. Is there any other efficient way to write this query.?

Copy records from one table to another with pl-sql

I want to copy records from one table to another.
The only records from table 1 that will be copied to table 2 are the ones that still dont exist in table 2.
If duplicate records exists in Table 1 then only be copied to table 2 the record with the larger size name.
I could already implement a query that almost does what I want.
The problem I have is when there are names with the same maximum size of characters.
In these cases, my query returns more than one record and I just want to insert one new record in table 2.
Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Here is my code:
For x in (Select distinct xdd.id_t, xdd.name_t
From table1 xdd
Where xdd.id_t not in (Select distinct det.id_t2
From table2 det)
And LENGTH(xdd.name_t) in (Select Max(LENGTH(xdd2.name_t))
From table1 xdd2
Where xdd2.id_t = xdd.id_t)
) Loop
Insert into id_t2 (id_t2, name_t2)
Values (x.id_t, x.name_t);
End loop;
Can you give me an example to solve this?
Sure. If I understood requirements correctly, then the merge statement will look similar to this one:
We use row_number() analytic function to choose a duplicate record with longer name_t
merge into table_two t2
using(
select id_t
, name_t
from (select id_t
, name_t
, row_number() over(partition by id_t
order by length(name_t) desc) as rn
from table_one) q
where q.rn = 1
) t1
on (t2.id_t = t1.id_t)
when not matched then
insert(id_t, name_t)
values(t1.id_t, t1.name_t)
SQLFiddle demo
This is a merge statement that should "upsert" data from table 1 into table 2. Matching keys should update only when the name field in table1 is greater than that of table 2. And inserts should occur when keys from table one are not matched to table 2.
MERGE INTO table2 D
USING (SELECT table1.id_t, table1.name_t FROM table1) S
ON (D.id_t2 = S.id_t)
WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE SET D.name_t2 = S.name_t
WHERE (LENGTH(S.name_t) > LENGTH(D.name_t2))
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN INSERT (D.id_t, D.name_t)
VALUES (S.id_t2, S.name_t2);

Need to select column from subquery into main query

I have a query like below - table names etc. changed for keeping the actual data private
SELECT inv.*,TRUNC(sysdate)
FROM Invoice inv
WHERE (inv.carrier,inv.pro,inv.ndate) IN
(
SELECT carrier,pro,n_dt FROM Order where TRUNC(Order.cr_dt) = TRUNC(sysdate)
)
I am selecting records from Invoice based on Order. i.e. all records from Invoice which are common with order records for today, based on those 3 columns...
Now I want to select Order_Num from Order in my select query as well.. so that I can use the whole thing to insert it into totally seperate table, let's say orderedInvoices.
insert into orderedInvoices(seq_no,..same columns as Inv...,Cr_dt)
(
SELECT **Order.Order_Num**, inv.*,TRUNC(sysdate)
FROM Invoice inv
WHERE (inv.carrier,inv.pro,inv.ndate) IN
(
SELECT carrier,pro,n_dt FROM Order where TRUNC(Order.cr_dt) = TRUNC(sysdate)
)
)
?? - how to do I select that Order_Num in main query for each records of that sub query?
p.s. I understand that trunc(cr_dt) will not use index on cr_dt (if a index is there..) but I couldn't select records unless I omit the time part of it..:(
If the table ORDER1 is unique on CARRIER, PRO and N_DT you can use a JOIN instead of IN to restrict your records, it'll also enable you to select whatever data you want from either table:
select order.order_num, inv.*, trunc(sysdate)
from Invoice inv
join order ord
on inv.carrier = ord.carrier
and inv.pro = ord.pro
and inv.ndate = ord.n_dt
where trunc(order.cr_dt) = trunc(sysdate)
If it's not unique then you have to use DISTINCT to deduplicate your record set.
Though using TRUNC() on CR_DT will not use an index on that column you can use a functional index on this if you do need an index.
create index i_order_trunc_cr_dt on order (trunc(cr_dt));
1. This is a really bad name for a table as it's a keyword, consider using ORDERS instead.

Oracle: MIN() Statement causes empty row returns

I'm having a small issue with sorting the data returned from a query, with the aim of getting the oldest updated value in dataset so that I can update only that record. Here's what I'm doing:
WHERE ROWNUM = 1 AND TABLE1.ID != V_IGNOREID
AND TABLE1.LASTREADTIME = (SELECT MIN(TABLE1.LASTREADTIME) FROM TABLE1)
ORDER BY TABLE1.LASTREADTIME DESC;
It makes no difference as to whether the ORDER BY statement is included or not. If I only use the ROWNUM and equality checks, I get data, but it alternates between only two rows, which is why I'm trying to use the LASTREADTIME data (so that I can modify more than these two rows). Anybody have any thoughts on this, or any suggestions as to how I can use the MIN function effectively?
Cheers
select * from (
-- your original select without rownum and with order by
)
WHERE ROWNUM = 1
EDIT some explanation
I think the order by clause is applied on the resultset after the where clause. So if the rownum = 1 is in the same select statement with the order by, then it will be applied first and the order by will order only 1 row, which will be the first row of the unordered resultset.
