I have data flowing from two tables, table A and table B. I'm doing an inner join on a common column from both the tables and creating two more new columns based on different conditions. Below is a sample dataset:
Table A
| Id | StartDate |
|-----|------------|
| 119 | 01-01-2018 |
| 120 | 01-02-2019 |
| 121 | 03-05-2018 |
| 123 | 05-08-2021 |
TABLE B
| Id | CodeId | Code | RedemptionDate |
|-----|--------|------|----------------|
| 119 | 1 | abc | null |
| 119 | 2 | abc | null |
| 119 | 3 | def | null |
| 119 | 4 | def | 2/3/2019 |
| 120 | 5 | ghi | 04/7/2018 |
| 120 | 6 | ghi | 4/5/2018 |
| 121 | 7 | jkl | null |
| 121 | 8 | jkl | 4/4/2019 |
| 121 | 9 | mno | 3/18/2020 |
| 123 | 10 | pqr | null |
What I'm basically doing is joining the tables on column 'Id' when StartDate>2018 and create two new columns - 'unlock' by counting CodeId when RedemptionDate is null and 'Redeem' by counting CodeId when RedmeptionDate is not null. Below is the SQL query:
WITH cte1 AS (
SELECT a.id, COUNT(b.CodeId) AS 'Unlock'
FROM TableA AS a
JOIN TableB AS b ON a.Id=b.Id
WHERE YEAR(a.StartDate) >= 2018 AND b.RedemptionDate IS NULL
GROUP BY a.id
), cte2 AS (
SELECT a.id, COUNT(b.CodeId) AS 'Redeem'
FROM TableA AS a
JOIN TableB AS b ON a.Id=b.Id
WHERE YEAR(a.StartDate) >= 2018 AND b.RedemptionDate IS NOT NULL
GROUP BY a.id
)
SELECT cte1.Id, cte1.Unlocked, cte2.Redeemed
FROM cte1
FULL OUTER JOIN cte2 ON cte1.Id = cte2.Id
If I break down the output of this query, result from cte1 will look like below:
| Id | Unlock |
|-----|--------|
| 119 | 3 |
| 121 | 1 |
| 123 | 1 |
And from cte2 will look like below:
| Id | Redeem |
|-----|--------|
| 119 | 1 |
| 120 | 2 |
| 121 | 2 |
The last select query will produce the following result:
| Id | Unlock | Redeem |
|------|--------|--------|
| 119 | 3 | 1 |
| null | null | 2 |
| 121 | 1 | 2 |
| 123 | 1 | null |
How can I replace the null value from Id with values from 'b.Id'? If I try coalesce or a case statement, they create new columns. I don't want to create additional columns, rather replace the null values from the column values coming from another table. My final output should like:
| Id | Unlock | Redeem |
|-----|--------|--------|
| 119 | 3 | 1 |
| 120 | null | 2 |
| 121 | 1 | 2 |
| 123 | 1 | null |
If I'm following correctly, you can use apply
with aggregation:
select a.*, b.*
from a cross apply
(select count(RedemptionDate) as num_redeemed,
count(*) - count(RedemptionDate) as num_unlock
from b
where b.id = a.id
) b;
However, the answer to your question is to use coalesce(cte1.id, cte2.id) as id
.
