I have a table that contains multiple records for multiple dates.
I am trying to see the difference between "date 1" and "date 2" and my full outer join is not returning the data I was expecting.
I know there are 13278 rows on date 1 and 13282 on date 2 - therefore I would expect to see at least 13282 rows, but I get back 13195...which is an INNER JOIN
(I tested this).
I am hoping for results like:
001 000123 009 NULL 1000
001 000124 009 1000 1000
001 000125 009 1000 1000
001 000126 009 1000 NULL
but this don't get any of the null rows from either side?
SELECT
COALESCE(c.AccountBranch, p.AccountBranch)
, COALESCE(c.AccountNumber, p.AccountNumber)
, COALESCE(c.AccountSuffix, p.AccountSuffix)
, c.PrincipleAmount
, p.PrincipleAmount
FROM ADStaging..cb_account_extension_principle_dpd c
FULL OUTER JOIN ADStaging..cb_account_extension_principle_dpd p
ON p.AccountBranch = c.AccountBranch
AND p.AccountNumber = c.AccountNumber
AND p.AccountSuffix = c.AccountSuffix
WHERE
(c.BusinessDataDate IS NULL OR c.BusinessDataDate = @CurrentBusinessDataDate)
AND
(p.BusinessDataDate IS NULL OR p.BusinessDataDate = @PreviousBusinessDataDate)
This works - combining the "key" for the join in two separate select statements?
SELECT
COALESCE(C.Account, P.Account) AS Account
, COALESCE(C.AccountBranch, P.AccountBranch) as AccountBranch
, COALESCE(C.AccountNumber, P.AccountNumber) as AccountNumber
, COALESCE(C.AccountSuffix, P.AccountSuffix) as AccountSuffix
, P.PrincipleAmount AS PreviousAmount
, C.PrincipleAmount AS CurrentAmount
, ISNULL(C.PrincipleAmount, P.PrincipleAmount) - ISNULL(P.PrincipleAmount,0)
FROM
(SELECT
(pd.AccountBranch + pd.AccountNumber + pd.AccountSuffix) AS Account
, pd.AccountBranch
, pd.AccountNumber
, pd.AccountSuffix
, pd.PrincipleAmount
FROM ADStaging..cb_account_extension_principle_dpd pd
WHERE pd.BusinessDataDate = @CurrentBusinessDataDate) C
FULL OUTER JOIN
(SELECT
(pd.AccountBranch + pd.AccountNumber + pd.AccountSuffix) AS Account
, pd.AccountBranch
, pd.AccountNumber
, pd.AccountSuffix
, pd.PrincipleAmount
FROM ADStaging..cb_account_extension_principle_dpd pd
WHERE pd.BusinessDataDate = @PreviousBusinessDataDate) P
ON P.Account = C.Account
WHERE
(P.PrincipleAmount IS NULL OR C.PrincipleAmount IS NULL)
OR
P.PrincipleAmount <> C.PrincipleAmount
But this doesn't - joining on the combined values - only when they are separate tables?
SELECT
COALESCE(c.AccountBranch, p.AccountBranch)
, COALESCE(c.AccountNumber, p.AccountNumber)
, COALESCE(c.AccountSuffix, p.AccountSuffix)
, c.PrincipleAmount
, p.PrincipleAmount
FROM ADStaging..cb_account_extension_principle_dpd c
FULL OUTER JOIN ADStaging..cb_account_extension_principle_dpd p
ON (p.AccountBranch + p.AccountNumber + p.AccountSuffix)
= (c.AccountBranch + c.AccountNumber + c.AccountSuffix)
WHERE
(c.BusinessDataDate = @CurrentBusinessDataDate)
AND
(p.BusinessDataDate = @PreviousBusinessDataDate)
