SQL Server : excluding rows from a table IF there is another row with the same col value and a particular secondary column value

Question

I have a single table with columns for Account and InvoiceID , an account can have multiple InvoiceID rows and I'm trying to add an option that will filter out ALL account rows if there is a row that has a particular Status .

For my small data set I might have 15 records, 3 accounts each having 5 invoices. If one of those records has a Status of 0 I would like that and the remaining 4 to be filtered out. I tried using EXCEPT to do this but it only filtered out the single row with the value of 0 and left the remainders.

I've only worked with the basics of SQL Server before so I'm feeling quite lost looking at all the more advanced features you can use in a statement so I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. Thanks!

Edit for example data:

Id  Account  enddate     Status  InvoiceID
0   5000     2011-10-10  1       1
1   5000     2012-10-10  1       2
2   5000     2013-10-10  1       3
3   5000     2014-10-10  1       4
4   5000     2015-10-10  0       5
5   5999     2013-10-10  1       1
6   5999     2014-10-10  1       2
7   5999     2015-10-10  1       3
8   1002     2014-10-10  1       1
9   1002     2015-10-10  1       2

If I run a query for invoices that end in october and come back with these results, I want to further filter out ALL records of Account 5000 because it has a row with a status of 0 and leave the records for accounts 5999 and 1002.

Answer 1

You could use a not exists clause, to filter out any rows that have the same account number as a row with status 0. Something along the lines of the following:

select * 
from table1 t1
where not exists (
  select account
  from table1 t2
  where t2.account=t1.account
    and t2.status=0
)

A slightly different approach would be:

select *
from table1 t1
where account not in (
  select distinct account
  from table1 t2
  where t2.status=0 )
