Here, we will explain how to find Running Total and Final Total or Grand Total in SQL Server. For example, you have the below given #tblEmployee temporary table and has the data, as shown below.

    CREATE TABLE #tblEmployee 
    ( 
       EmpID int identity, 
       Salary Decimal(8,2), 
       Grade varchar(10) 
    ) 

Insert some values in a temporary table like this.
    INSERT INTO #tblEmployee(Salary,Grade) Values(10000.51,'B') 
    INSERT INTO #tblEmployee(Salary,Grade) Values(20000.12,'B') 
    INSERT INTO #tblEmployee(Salary,Grade) Values(25000.02,'B') 
    INSERT INTO #tblEmployee(Salary,Grade) Values(9000.28,'C') 
    INSERT INTO #tblEmployee(Salary,Grade) Values(7000,'C') 
    INSERT INTO #tblEmployee(Salary,Grade) Values(6000,'C') 

Find the Running Total in the SQL Server
Write the following SQL Query to find the running total for the Salary column from #tblEmployee temporary table.
SELECT EmpID, Grade, Emp.Salary ,(SELECT SUM(Salary) FROM #tblEmployee WHERE EmpID <= Emp.EmpID) 'Running Total' FROM #tblEmployee Emp 
I have used the sub-query to find the running total.
 
Find the Final Total or Grand Total in SQL Server
 Write the following SQL Query to find the final total or grand total for the Salary column from #tblEmployee temporary table.
    SELECT EmpID, SUM(Salary) AS Salary FROM #tblEmployee GROUP BY EmpID WITH ROLLUP 

Here I used ROLLUP to achieve the desired result.
 
What is ROLLUP
The ROLLUP is an extension of the GROUP BY clause. The ROLLUP option allows you to include extra rows that represent the subtotals, which are commonly referred to as super-aggregate rows, along with the grand total row. By using the ROLLUP option, you can use a single query to generate multiple grouping sets.
 
Following Result produce by this SQL Query,

So, in this blog, we tried to explain how to find the running total from the SQL table. I hope this blog helps all of us. It is also most asked question from the interview.

Instead of triggers are used to skip DML commands. They fire when you try to execute insert, update or delete statement but instead of executing these commands trigger actually works and trigger functionality executes.
 

Example
    create table approved_emp ( eid int identity(1,1), ename varchar(30)) 
    create table emp ( id int identity(1,1) , ename varchar(30), AddedBy varchar(30)) 
      
    Create trigger instead_of on approved_emp 
    instead of insert 
    as 
    begin 
    declare @name varchar(30) 
    select @name=ename from inserted 
    insert into temp_audit values(@name, USER ) 
    end 

So, basically, trigger will work as, when we will try to add new record in approved_emp table, instead of inserting new records it will add ename into emp table. No data will reflect in approved_emp table as trigger is fired on the table every time while adding data into that table.
 
You can also create instead of triggers for update and delete as well.
 

Sometimes, we get data that needs to be unique but we can also get NULL records. Existing ways to achieve uniqueness don’t allow NULLs (Primary Key) or allow a maximum of one NULL (Unique Constraint).
 
Let’s take an example to understand this better. Suppose, you have an Employee table with fields like Id, FirstName, MiddleName, LastName, Email, etc. As per the requirement, the email needs to be unique (if supplied), however, users are also allowed to register without entering their email and hence in the database Email is a nullable field.
 
So, how would you achieve the Email uniqueness having more than one NULL?

    CREATE UNIQUE NONCLUSTERED INDEX [UX_Employee_Email] ON [dbo].Employee WHERE Email IS NOT NULL 

The above code will ensure that the Email doesn’t have duplicate data, however, it may store more than one NULL.

OnceSQL Server Full-Text Search with rank values  I wrote a post titled enabling Fulltext search in Azure SQL database discussing Full-Text search in Azure. while using it with one of my databases, needed to show the result of the search ordered by however well they match to the search criteria. in order to sort the result as i need, the best is, get a rank generated for every row and use it for ordering the result. I had used Freetext operate for obtaining the result but if i realized that this can not be achieved using the Freetext function.

The CONTAINSTABLE and FREETEXTTABLE functions return a column named Rank for showing the rank related to the record based on matching. this can be used get the result sorted based on it, showing most relevant records at the top. Remember, the higher value of the Rank generated indicates the best matching.

Now, write the following code:

    CREATE TABLE dbo.EmployeeDetails  
    (  
     EmployeeDetailsId int identity(1,1) not null

There are times when we need to pass a SQL query as a string that has been created dynamically and execute it on database or from the code. For this purpose, we can use a built-in stored procedure, sp_executesql.

Stored procedure, sp_executesql executes a SQL statement or batch that can be reused many times, or one that has been built dynamically.

Here is the syntax:
sp_executesql [ @stmt = ] statement 
[ 
{ , [ @params = ] N'@parameter_name data_type [ OUT | OUTPUT ][ ,...n ]' } 
{ , [ @param1 = ] 'value1' [ ,...n ] } 
] 

Here is an example where SQL is compiled as a string, str1. The SELECT SQL statement is executed via the string parameter passed to the sp_executesql.
declare @str1 nvarchar(200) -----declare a variable 
set @str1='SELECT * FROM tablename' --- set your query to variable 
exec sp_executesql @str1 

Here we will explain how to find the Indian financial year and financial quarter in a particular date with an example in SQL Server.  I have used the CASE statement and DATEPART() function to achieve this requirement.

DATEPART() in SQL Server
The DATEPART() function returns a specified part of a date, like – year, month, day, hour, minute, etc.

CASE Statement in SQL Server
CASE is the extension of IF ... ELSE statement. So, once a condition is true, it will stop reading & return the result. If no conditions are true, it returns the value in the ELSE block.
 
A) Find the FINANCIAL YEAR from date
 Write the below-given SQL code to find the financial year from given particular date,
    DECLARE@FilterDateASDATETIME 
    SET@FilterDate = GETDATE() 
    SELECTCASEWHENDATEPART(QUARTER,@FilterDate)= 1 THENYEAR(@FilterDate)ELSEYEAR(@FilterDate)+ 1 ENDAS[FINANCIAL_YEAR] 
    ** Note - @FilterDate - The date to be find the financial year

Output
Following is the result of the SQL query for financial year,

 
B) Find the FINANCIAL QUARTER from date
 
Write the below SQL code to find the financial Quarter from given particular date,
    DECLARE@FilterDateASDATETIME 
    SET@FilterDate = GETDATE() 
    SELECTCASEDATEPART(QUARTER, @FilterDate)WHEN 1 THEN'Q4'WHEN 2 THEN'Q1'WHEN 3 THEN'Q2'WHEN 4 THEN'Q3'ENDAS[FINANCIAL_QUARTER] 
    ** Note - @FilterDate - The date to be find the financial Quarter

Output
Following is the result of the SQL query for the financial quarter,

In this post, I'll share few useful SQL queries for database analysis on SQL Server 2012. I shared few SQL queries useful in analyzing database, which I use quite often. This query will return all table names and no.of rows in it for built-in tables.

    -- List all table names and number of rows in it for user-defined tables 
    SELECT distinct t.name,prt.rows 
    FROM sys.tables t INNER JOIN sys.partitions AS prt 
    ON t.object_id = prt.object_id where t.is_ms_shipped=1 -- 0 for user-defined tables 
    order by prt.rows desc 

This query will return column names and its data type of a table.
    -- Get column names and its types of a table 
    SELECT cols.name,t.name 
    FROM sys.objects o join sys.columns cols on o.object_id= cols.object_id 
    join sys.types t on t.system_type_id=cols.system_type_id 
    and o.name='Employee'-- Table Name

This query will return file name, its size and file group name of a database.
    SELECT sdf.name AS [FileName], 
    size/128 AS [Size], 
    fg.name AS [File_Group_Name] 
    FROM sys.database_files sdf 
    INNER JOIN 
    sys.filegroups fg 
    ON sdf.data_space_id=fg.data_space_id 

Batch file to execute all sql files in a directory, Save it as .bat in a folder that have sql script files to be executed.
    @Echo Off 
    FOR /f %%i IN ('DIR *.Sql /B') do call :RunSql %%i

    Echo Executing SQL: %1 
    SQLCMD -S server1 -U user1 -P pwd1 -d DB1 -i %1 
    Echo Completed SQL: %1 
    :END 

This query will return all table names that have a Foreign key:
    SELECT SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS SchemaName, 
    name AS TableName 
    FROM sys.tables where OBJECTPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID,'TableHasForeignKey') = 1 -- Return all

HostForLIFE.eu is European Windows Hosting Provider which focuses on Windows Platform only. We deliver on-demand hosting solutions including Shared hosting, Reseller Hosting, Cloud Hosting, Dedicated Servers, and IT as a Service for companies of all sizes.

Database Administrators usually use the sp_renamedb system stored procedure to quickly rename a SQL Server Database. However, the drawback of using sp_renamedb is that it doesn't rename the Logical and Physical names of the underlying database files. It's a best practice to make sure the Logical Name and Physical File Name of the database is also renamed to reflect the actual name of the database to avoid any confusion with backup, restore or detach/attach operations.

Let's first create a new database named CoreDB using the T-SQL below:

USE master
GO
IF EXISTS (SELECT name FROM sys.databases WHERE name = N'CoreDB')
DROP DATABASE CoreDB
GO
USE master
GO
CREATE DATABASE [CoreDB]
ON PRIMARY
(
NAME = N'CoreDB',
FILENAME = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.SQL2008\MSSQL\DATA\CoreDB.mdf' ,
SIZE = 2048KB ,
FILEGROWTH = 1024KB
)
LOG ON
(
NAME = N'CoreDB_log',
FILENAME = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.SQL2008\MSSQL\DATA\CoreDB_log.ldf' ,
SIZE = 1024KB ,
FILEGROWTH = 10%
)
GO
Rename CoreDB Database Using sp_renamedb System Stored Procedure

Now let's rename the CoreDB database to ProductsDB by executing the below T-SQL code.

USE master
GO
ALTER DATABASE CoreDB
SET SINGLE_USER
WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
GO
EXEC master..sp_renamedb 'CoreDB','ProductsDB'
GO
ALTER DATABASE ProductsDB
SET MULTI_USER
GO
Once the above T-SQL has executed successfully the database name will change however the Logical Name and File Name will not change. You can verify this by executing the T-SQL below:

USE master
GO
/* Identify Database File Names */
SELECT
name AS [Logical Name],
physical_name AS [DB File Path],
type_desc AS [File Type],
state_desc AS [State]
FROM sys.master_files
WHERE database_id = DB_ID(N'ProductsDB')
GO
Your output should look something like this from the above query.

You can see in the above snippet that the Logical Name and File Name in the DB File Path column for ProductsDB are still reflecting the old name of CoreDB. This is not a good practice to follow in a Production Environment. Below you will see the steps which a DBA can follow to rename the database and its respective files.

Steps to Rename a SQL Server Database

DBAs should follow the below steps which will not only rename the database, but at the same time will also rename the Logical Name and File Name of the database.

This first set of commands put the database in single user mode and also modifies the logical names.


/* Set Database as a Single User */
ALTER DATABASE CoreDB SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
/* Change Logical File Name */
ALTER DATABASE [CoreDB] MODIFY FILE (NAME=N'CoreDB', NEWNAME=N'ProductsDB')
GO
ALTER DATABASE [CoreDB] MODIFY FILE (NAME=N'CoreDB_log', NEWNAME=N'ProductsDB_log')
GO
This is the output from the above code.

Now we need to detach the database, so we can rename the physical files.  If the database files are open you will not be able to rename the files.

/* Detach Current Database */
USE [master]
GO
EXEC master.dbo.sp_detach_db @dbname = N'CoreDB'
GO
Once the CoreDB database is detached successfully then the next step will be to rename the Physical Files. This can be done either manually or by using the xp_cmdshell system stored procedure. You can enable xp_cmdshell feature using the sp_configure system stored procedure.

USE master
GO
sp_configure 'show advanced options'
GO
/* 0 = Disabled , 1 = Enabled */
sp_configure 'xp_cmdshell', 1
GO
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
GO
Once xp_cmdshell is enabled you can use the below script to rename the physical files of the database.

/* Rename Physical Files */
USE [master]
GO
EXEC xp_cmdshell 'RENAME "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQL10.SQL2008\
MSSQL\DATA\CoreDB.mdf", "ProductsDB.mdf"'
GO
EXEC xp_cmdshell 'RENAME "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQL10.SQL2008\
MSSQL\DATA\CoreDB_log.ldf", "ProductsDB_log.ldf"'
GO
Once the above step has successfully executed then the next step will be to attach the database, this can be done by executing the T-SQL below:

/* Attach Renamed ProductsDB Database Online */
USE [master]
GO
CREATE DATABASE ProductsDB ON
( FILENAME = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.SQL2008\MSSQL\DATA\ProductsDB.mdf' ),
( FILENAME = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.SQL2008\MSSQL\DATA\ProductsDB_log.ldf' )
FOR ATTACH
GO
Once the above step has successfully executed then the final step will be to allow multi user access for the user database by executing the below T-SQL:

/* Set Database to Multi User*/
ALTER DATABASE ProductsDB SET MULTI_USER
GO
You can verify the Logical and File Names for the ProductsDB database by executing the T-SQL below:

USE master
GO
/* Identify Database File Names */
SELECT
name AS [Logical Name],
physical_name AS [DB File Path],
type_desc AS [File Type],
state_desc AS [State]
FROM sys.master_files
WHERE database_id = DB_ID(N'ProductsDB')

In this article I have listed few methods to know about the list of database, tables, views,etc.., It will be very useful when we trace the database objects in the query window. Even though it can be accessible in the sql server object explorer, but when we write the query it can be customized. That means it can filter the result set based on our requirement.

How to list out the available database in the SQL Server current connection?
Method 1
SP_DATABASES 

Method 2
SELECT name FROM SYS.DATABASES 

Method 3
SELECT name FROM SYS.MASTER_FILES 

Method 4
SELECT * FROM SYS.MASTER_FILES -- Type=0 for .mdf and type=1 for .ldf 
The sp_databases is a system stored procedure it can be listed the database with the size.
The sys.databases will list the databases, created date, modified date and database id along with the other information

The SYS.MASTER_FILES will query the database details like the database id, size, physical storage path and list both mdf and ldf.

How to list the user tables in the database?

What are Aggregate Functions in SQL Server? This article helps you to explore various Aggregate Functions in SQL Server.

What are Aggregate Functions?
I can give different definitions.

• Aggregate functions are built in sql server functions.
• Aggregate functions are applied to sets of records rather than to a single record.
• Aggregate functions performs a computation on a set of values rather than on a single value.
• Aggregate functions uses to summarize data.
• Aggregate functions perform a calculation on a set of values and return a single value.

Getting Started
The information in multiple records are processed in a particular manner and then displayed in a single record answer.
Aggregate functions are often used in conjuction with GROUP BY clause.
Aggregate functions cannot be nested. The expression cannot be a subquery.

The list of built in Aggregate functions are:
AVG, CHECKSUM, CHECKSUM_AGG, COUNT, COUNT_BIG, GROUPING, MAX, MIN, SUM, STDEV, STDEVP, VAR, VARP.

AVG in SQL Server
AVG returns the average of the values in expression. The expression must contain numeric values. Null values are ignored.

The syntax: AVG ([ ALL | DISTINCT ] <expression>)
select orderid, avg(UnitPrice) UnitPrice from dbo.[Order Details] group by orderid; 

CHECKSUM in SQL Server
This is a basic hash algorithm usually used to detect changes or consistency in data.

"A digit representing the sum of the correct digits in a piece of stored or transmitted digital data, against which later comparisons can be made to detect errors in the data."

The syntax: CHECKSUM(<expression>, [ ... n] | *)

SELECT CHECKSUM(orderid, UnitPrice, quantity), orderid, UnitPrice, quantity FROM dbo.[Order Details] WHERE orderid = 10248 

CHECKSUM_AGG in SQL Server
The same as CHECKSUM, but the primary difference is that CHECKSUM is oriented around rows, whereas CHECKSUM_AGG is oriented around columns.

The syntax: CHECKSUM( [ALL | DISTINCT] <expression> )
SELECT CHECKSUM_AGG(CAST(UnitPrice AS int)) FROM dbo.[Order Details] 
update dbo.[Order Details] set UnitPrice = 15 
where orderid = 10248 and ProductID = 11 
SELECT CHECKSUM_AGG(CAST(UnitPrice AS int)) FROM dbo.[Order Details] 

COUNT in SQL Server
Returns the number of items in expression. The data type returned is of type int.

The syntax: COUNT( [ALL | DISTINCT] <expression> | * )
select COUNT(*), AVG(UnitPrice) from dbo.[Order Details] 

COUNT_BIG in SQL Server
Returns the number of items in a group. The data type returned is of type bigint.

The syntax: COUNT( [ALL | DISTINCT] <expression> | * )
select COUNT_BIG(*), AVG(UnitPrice) from dbo.[Order Details] 

GROUPING in SQL Server
MSDN : Is an aggregate function that causes an additional column to be output with a value of 1 when the row is added by either the CUBE or ROLLUP operator, or 0 when the row is not the result of CUBE or ROLLUP.

Function adds an extra column to the output of a SELECT statement.

The syntax: GROUPING(<column_name> )
select orderid, sum(UnitPrice) UnitPrice, GROUPING(orderid) 'orderid' 
from dbo.[Order Details] WHERE orderid = 10248 
GROUP BY orderid WITH cube 

MAX in SQL Server
Returns the maximum value from expression. Max ignores any NULL values.

The syntax: MAX( [ALL | DISTINCT] <expression> )
select MAX(QUANTITY) from dbo.[Order Details] 

MIN in SQL Server
Returns the smallest value from expression. Min ignores any NULL values.

The syntax: MIN( [ALL | DISTINCT] <expression> )
select MIN(QUANTITY) from dbo.[Order Details] 

SUM in SQL Server
Returns the total of all values in expression. Sum ignores any NULL values.

The syntax: SUM( [ALL | DISTINCT] <expression> )
select SUM(QUANTITY) from dbo.[Order Details] 

STDEV in SQL Server
Returns the standard deviation of all values in expression. Stdev ignores any NULL values.

The syntax: STDEV( <expression> )
select STDEV(QUANTITY) from dbo.[Order Details]

STDEVP in SQL Server
Returns the standard deviation for the population of all values in expression. Stdevp ignores any NULL values.

The syntax: STDEVP( <expression> )
select STDEVP(QUANTITY) from dbo.[Order Details] 

VAR in SQL Server
Returns the variance of all values in expression. Var ignores any NULL values.

The syntax: VAR( <expression> )
select VAR(QUANTITY) from dbo.[Order Details] 

VARP in SQL Server
Returns the variance for the population of all values in expression. Varp ignores any NULL values.
The syntax: VARP( <expression> )
select VARP(QUANTITY) from dbo.[Order Details]
