Quick Reports SQL - Multiple Left Join Issue


Forum|alt.badge.img+1

Does anyone know why the following SQL doesn't work in IFS? I only seems to work without the last LEFT JOIN and the associated column that I want to bring in at the bottom of my SELECT statement. I’ve verified the column names exist, but unfortunately the errors in IFS point me nowhere. Thanks!

 

WITH FilteredAccount AS (
    SELECT * 
    FROM ACCOUNT 
    WHERE Company = '4400'
)

SELECT
    GEN_LED_VOUCHER_ROW_QRY.Company,
    GEN_LED_VOUCHER_ROW_QRY.Voucher_Type,

Hi @tcboutte,

What is the error that you are getting?

Unfortunately, nothing more than this from the logs: “SQL_EXPRESSION - (Server Application Error): Sql Expression is wrong”.

 

It is first time I have tried to do a JOIN on a column created from the prior JOIN command. That shouldn’t be an issue in IFS, right?

@tcboutte I looked at your join and I think this is incorrect

 

LEFT JOIN
    SUB_PROJECT1 ON GEN_LED_VOUCHER_ROW_QRY.Sub_Project_ID = SUB_PROJECT1.Sub_Project_ID

 

There is no GEN_LED_VOUCHER_ROW_QRY.Sub_Project_ID column in the GEN_LED_VOUCHER_ROW_QRY view? 

 

I can only find a PROJECT_ID? , could that be your error?

Maybe try to wrap your code inside a Select like this:

 

Select * from(

Youre sql

 

)

 

or rewrite your SQL without using WITH statement

@kvbe - I am bringing in SUB_Project_ID from the ‘ACTIVITY’ table with this line in my select statement: ACTIVITY.Sub_Project_ID AS "Sub Project ID". It is the one I am trying to JOIN on.

 

@Bjornar Brekka I’ll try this!

I appreciate everyone’s eyes on this. I wish I could explain it, but without changing anything, that query works fine today… Maybe I was running into a server-side bug or load problem that is no gone. Thanks all!
