Is it possible to somehow join the following two queries into a single dataset that can be used in tablix in an SSRS report?
Table Policy
------------
PolNum
SubmitDate
ProdID
Pend
Table Product
-------------
ProdID
ProdCat
Table Prem
---------
PolNum
Prem
Query 1
Select Count(PolNum), DATEPART(wk, SubmitDate)
From Policy INNER JOIN Product on Policy.ProdID = Product.ProdID
Where (year(SubmitDate) = year(getdate()))
Group by ProdCat, SubmitDate
Query2
Select sum(Prem), DATEPART(wk, SubmitDate)
From Policy INNER JOIN Product on Policy.ProdID = Product.ProdID INNER JOIN
Prem on Pol Pol.PolNum = Prem.PolNum
Where (Pend = 1)
Group By ProdCat, SubmitDate
The final report would look something like this:
Cat1 Cat2 Cat3 PremCat1 PremCat2 Premcat3
Week 1 5 4 5 65 25 95
Week 2 2 5 6 45 10 65
Week 3 3 6 15 13 15 96
Week 4 5 7 13 98 45 35
I've tried using a derived table, but the results aren't correct because The Pend flag will filter out some of the results for the count. I've read some about Common Table Expressions, but I do not fully understand when they would be used of how to use them.
Why don't you just join them?
select * from
(Select Count(PolNum) as PolCount, DATEPART(wk, SubmitDate) t1week
From Policy INNER JOIN Product on Policy.ProdID = Product.ProdID
Where (year(SubmitDate) = year(getdate()))
Group by ProdCat, SubmitDate) as t1
inner join
(Select sum(Prem) as sumPrem, DATEPART(wk, SubmitDate) t2week
From Policy INNER JOIN Product on Policy.ProdID = Product.ProdID INNER JOIN
Prem on Pol Pol.PolNum = Prem.PolNum
Where (Pend = 1)
Group By ProdCat, SubmitDate) as t2
on t1.t1week = t2.t2week
