I am trying to create an SQL query that conditionally pulls data from multiple tables.
I have four tables:
orders
+------+------------+------------+
| id | date_added | currency |
+------+------------+------------+
| 1 | 2018-07-23 | 1 |
+------+------------+------------+
order_items
+------+------------+------------+---------------+---------------+
| id | order_id | price | product_id | product_type |
+------+------------+------------+---------------+---------------+
| 1 | 1 | 100.00 | 1 | ticket |
+------+------------+------------+---------------+---------------+
order_data
+------+--------------+---------------+
| id | order_id | ext_order_ref |
+------+--------------+---------------+
| 1 | 1 | ABC |
+------+--------------+---------------+
products
+------+------------+------------+
| id | date | product_id |
+------+------------+------------+
| 1 | 2020-03-12 | 1 |
+------+------------+------------+
| 2 | 2020-03-18 | 2 |
+------+------------+------------+
| 3 | 2020-03-20 | 3 |
+------+------------+------------+
I need to output orders with the following conditions:
Preferred output would look like this:
+------------+------------+--------------+
| order_id | total | ext_order_ref|
+------------+------------+--------------+
| 1 | 100 | ABC |
+------------+------------+--------------+
My current query is basically like this; please advise
SELECT
orders.id as order_id,
SUM(order_items.price) as total,
order_data.ext_order_ref
FROM orders
INNER JOIN order_data
ON orders.id = order_data.ext_order_ref
RIGHT JOIN order_items
ON orders.id = order_items.order_id
LEFT JOIN products
ON order_items.product_id = products.product_id
WHERE order_items.product_type = 'ticket' AND products.date BETWEEN '2020-03-12' AND '2020-03-18'
GROUP BY orders.id
It almost works, but not quite. The date particularly is causing issue.
Thanks in advance!
First decide the driving table for the query and form the query based on the driving table. Driving table is the one primary table from which other tables join.
More information on driving tables from askTom
In your case, the driving table is Orders table. You are switching between RIGHT OUTER JOIN
and LEFT OUTER JOIN
. This will cause confusion in the resultset.
I have modified the query. See whether it works.
SELECT
orders.id as order_id,
SUM(order_items.price) as total,
order_data.ext_order_id
FROM orders
INNER JOIN order_data
ON orders.id = order_data.ext_order_id
LEFT OUTER JOIN order_items
ON orders.id = order_items.order_id
LEFT OUTER JOIN products
ON order_items.product_id = products.product_id
WHERE order_items.product_type = 'ticket' AND products.date BETWEEN '2020-03-12' AND '2020-03-18'
GROUP BY orders.id
I don't understand why you would want outer joins at all. If I follow the conditions correctly:
SELECT o.id as order_id,
SUM(oi.price) as total,
od.ext_order_id
FROM orders o INNER JOIN
order_data od
ON o.id = od.ext_order_id INNER JOIN
order_items oi
ON o.id = oi.order_id INNER JOIN
products p
ON oi.product_id = p.product_id
WHERE oi.product_type = 'ticket' AND
p.date >= '2020-03-12' AND
p.date < '2020-03-19'
GROUP BY o.id, od.ext_order_id;
Note the use of table aliases so the query is easier to write and read.
