netsuite case when formula - case

I am trying to make it so that when I have a case that either has Multiple Sales orders or multiple items on a sales order that it will tell me Multiple SOs on all of the lines.. So far the case formula code that I have will put it on some of the SOs but not all of them. it always skips some.
The end result is so that we know that there is multiple sales orders associated with that case.. This will allow us to know to look for tracking for each sales order.
CASE WHEN dense_RANK() OVER (PARTITION by {custbody_case.number} ORDER BY {internalid})>1 THEN 'MULTIPLE SOs 1 Case:'||{custbody_case.number}||'' WHEN dense_RANK() OVER (PARTITION by {number} ORDER BY {internalid})>1 THEN 'MULTIPLE SOs 3 Case:'||{custbody_case.number}||'' WHEN dense_RANK() OVER (PARTITION by {custbody_case.number} ORDER BY {number})>1 THEN 'MULTIPLE SOs 4 Case:'||{custbody_case.number}||'' ELSE 'Case:'||{custbody_case.number}||'' END

RANK cannot take the place of COUNT. You can use analytic count by placing a comment between the function name and opening parentheses COUNT/*...*/(
You can also use NetSuite's grouping and utilize agragate COUNT inside a Minimum, Maximum, or Average

How to find the nth largest value of each row in SQL

I have researched this problem and have found the answer for a single query, where you can find the nth value of a single column by using DESC OFFSET 2. What I am trying to do is find the nth value for each item in a row. For example, I'm working with a data base concerning bike share data. The data base stores the duration of each trip and the date. I'm trying to find the 3rd longest duration for each day in a data base. If I was going to find the max duration I would use the following code.
SELECT DATE(start_date) trip_date, MAX(duration)
FROM trips
GROUP BY 1
I want the output to be something like this.
Date 3rd_duration
1/1/2017 334
1/2/2017 587
etc
If the value of the third longest duration is the same for two or more different trips, I would like the trip with the lowest trip_id to be ranked 3rd.
I'm working in SQLite.
Any help would be appreciated.
Neither SQLite nor MySQL have a ROW_NUMBER function built in, so get ready for an ugly query. We can still group by the date, but to find the max duration we can use a correlated subquery.
SELECT
DATE(t1.start_date) AS start_date,
t1.duration
FROM trips t1
WHERE
(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM trips t2
WHERE DATE(t2.start_date) = DATE(t1.start_date) AND
t2.duration <= t1.duration) = 3;
Note that this approach might break down if you could have, for a given date, more than one record with the same duration. In this case, you might get multiple results, neither of which might actually be the third highest duration. In order to handle such ties, you should tell us what the logic is with regard to ties.

Difference between Qualify and Having

Can someone please explain me, what is the difference between qualify...over...partition by and group by...having in Teradata?I would also like to know if there are any differences in their performances.
QUALIFY is a proprietary extension to filter the result of a Windowed Aggregate Function.
A query is logically processed in a specific order:
FROM: create the basic result set
WHERE: remove rows from the previous result set
GROUP BY: apply aggregate functions on the previous result set
HAVING: remove rows from the previous result set
OVER: apply windowed aggregate functions on the previous result set
QUALIFY: remove rows from the previous result set
Having clause is used to filter the result set of the aggregate functions like (COUNT,min,max etc)
they eliminate rows based from groups based on some criteria like this :-
SELECT dept_no, MIN(salary), MAX(salary), AVG(salary)
FROM employee
WHERE dept_no IN (100,300,500,600)
GROUP BY dept_no
HAVING AVG(salary) > 37000;
The QUALIFY clause eliminates rows based on the function value, returning a new value for each of the participating rows.
It works on the final result set.
SELECT NAME,LOCATION FROM EMPLOYEE
QUALIFY ROW_NUMBER() OVER ( PARTITION BY NAME ORDER BY JOINING_DATE DESC) = 1;
We can club both having and qualify as well in a query if we use both aggregate and analytical fucntion like below:-
SELECT StoreID, SUM(sale),
SUM(profit) OVER (PARTITION BY StoreID)
FROM facts
GROUP BY StoreID, sale, profit
HAVING SUM(sale) > 15
QUALIFY SUM(profit) OVER (PARTITION BY StoreID) > 2;
You can see there order of execution from dnoeth answer.

Oracle PL/SQL ORA-00937 "not a single-group group function"

Im working with the oracle pdf's to learn pl/sql.
There is an exercise where i have to create a new table with data out
of two other tables already existing. I thought this would do the trick:
CREATE TABLE new_depts
AS SELECT d.department_id, d.department_name, sum(e.salary) dept_sal
FROM employees e, departments d
WHERE e.department_id = d.department_id;
But this raises the following error:
SQL-Fehler: ORA-00937: not a single-group group function
00937. 00000 - "not a single-group group function"
I cant find something usefull about this error. From what i know yet
about SQL my code should work fine!
Am i wrong?
Try adding group by clause :
CREATE TABLE new_depts
AS SELECT d.department_id, d.department_name, sum(e.salary) dept_sal
FROM employees e, departments d
WHERE e.department_id = d.department_id
group by d.department_id,d.department_name
Update 1
You need to use group by clause in your select query because you are using aggregate function: sum(e.salary). If you are using aggregate function then you need to have group by clause. Please see here for more information about group by clause.
The main concept to understanding why aggregate functions or columns that are specified in the GROUP BY clause cannot be mixed with other non aggregate expressions in the select list is the level of detail of the value they produce. The select list of the SELECT statement can include only expressions that produce values that are on the same level of detail as others in that select list.
Example 1: incorrect
SELECT avg(col1) --> level of detail of the value is aggregated
,col2 --> level of detail of the value is only for one row
FROM table_a;
Example 2: correct
SELECT avg(col1) --> level of detail of the value is aggregated
,col2 --> level of detail of the value is aggregated
FROM table_a
GROUP BY col2;
By including a column in the GROUP BY clause you aggregate the specified column and change its level of detail from single row to aggregate.

sqlite subqueries with group_concat as columns in select statements

I have two tables, one contains a list of items which is called watch_list with some important attributes and the other is just a list of prices which is called price_history. What I would like to do is group together 10 of the lowest prices into a single column with a group_concat operation and then create a row with item attributes from watch_list along with the 10 lowest prices for each item in watch_list. First I tried joins but then I realized that the operations where happening in the wrong order so there was no way I could get the desired result with a join operation. Then I tried the obvious thing and just queried the price_history for every row in the watch_list and just glued everything together in the host environment which worked but seemed very inefficient. Now I have the following query which looks like it should work but it's not giving me the results that I want. I would like to know what is wrong with the following statement:
select w.asin,w.title,
(select group_concat(lowest_used_price) from price_history as p
where p.asin=w.asin limit 10)
as lowest_used
from watch_list as w
Basically I want the limit operation to happen before group_concat does anything but I can't think of a sql statement that will do that.
Figured it out, as somebody once said "All problems in computer science can be solved by another level of indirection." and in this case an extra select subquery did the trick:
select w.asin,w.title,
(select group_concat(lowest_used_price)
from (select lowest_used_price from price_history as p
where p.asin=w.asin limit 10)) as lowest_used
from watch_list as w

Sqlite group_concat ordering

In Sqlite I can use group_concat to do:
1...A
1...B
1...C
2...A
2...B
2...C
1...C,B,A
2...C,B,A
but the order of the concatenation is random - according to docs.
I need to sort the output of group_concat to be
1...A,B,C
2...A,B,C
How can I do this?
Can you not use a subselect with the order by clause in, and then group concat the values?
Something like
SELECT ID, GROUP_CONCAT(Val)
FROM (
SELECT ID, Val
FROM YourTable
ORDER BY ID, Val
)
GROUP BY ID;
To be more precise, according to the docs:
The order of the concatenated elements is arbitrary.
It does not really mean random, it just means that the developers reserve the right to use whatever ordering they whish, even different ones for different queries or in different SQLite versions.
With the current version, this ordering might be the one implied by Adrian Stander's answer, as his code does seem to work. So you might just guard yourself with some unit tests and call it a day. But without examining the source code of SQLite really closely you can never be 100% sure this will always work.
If you are willing to build SQLite from source, you can also try to write your own user-defined aggregate function, but there is an easier way.
Fortunately, since version 3.25.0, you have window functions, providing a guaranteed-to-work, although somewhat ugly solution to your problem.
As you can see in the documentation, window functions have their own ORDER BY clauses:
In the example above, the window frame consists of all rows between the previous row ("1 PRECEDING") and the following row ("1 FOLLOWING"), inclusive, where rows are sorted according to the ORDER BY clause in the window-defn (in this case "ORDER BY a").
Note, that this alone would not necessarily mean that all aggregate functions respect the ordering inside a window frame, but if you take a look at the unit tests, you can see this is actually the case:
do_execsql_test 4.10.1 {
SELECT a,
count() OVER (ORDER BY a DESC),
group_concat(a, '.') OVER (ORDER BY a DESC)
FROM t2 ORDER BY a DESC
} {
6 1 6
5 2 6.5
4 3 6.5.4
3 4 6.5.4.3
2 5 6.5.4.3.2
1 6 6.5.4.3.2.1
0 7 6.5.4.3.2.1.0
}
So, to sum it up, you can write
SELECT ID, GROUP_CONCAT(Val) OVER (PARTITION BY ID ORDER BY Val) FROM YourTable;
resulting in:
1|A
1|A,B
1|A,B,C
2|A
2|A,B
2|A,B,C
Which unfortunately also contains every prefix of your desired aggregations. Instead you want to specify the window frames to always contain the full range, then discard the redundant values, like this:
SELECT DISTINCT ID, GROUP_CONCAT(Val)
OVER (PARTITION BY ID ORDER BY Val ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND UNBOUNDED FOLLOWING)
FROM YourTable;
or like this:
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT ID, GROUP_CONCAT(Val)
OVER (PARTITION BY ID ORDER BY Val ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND UNBOUNDED FOLLOWING)
FROM YourTable
)
GROUP BY ID;
Stumbling upon the underlying sorting-problem I tried this:
(... on 10.4.18-MariaDB)
select GROUP_CONCAT(ex.ID) as ID_list
FROM (
SELECT usr.ID
FROM (
SELECT u1.ID as ID
FROM table_users u1
) usr
GROUP BY ID
) ex
... and found the serialized ID_list ordered!
But I don't have an explanation for this now "correct" (?) result.
