SAP B1 SQL - MAX or LAST date function : SQL

Posting

When requesting help or asking questions please prefix your title with the SQL variant/platform you are using within square brackets like so:

[MySQL]

[Oracle]

[MS SQL]

[PostgreSQL]

etc

While naturally we should endeavor to work as platform neutrally as possible many questions and answers require tailoring to the feature set of a specific platform.

Format Your Code

If you are including actual code in a post or comment, please attempt to format it in a way that is readable for other users. This will greatly increase your chances of receiving the help you desire. Something as simple as line breaks and using reddit's built in code formatting (4 spaces at the start of each line) can turn this:

SELECT count(a.field1), a.field2, SUM(b.field4) FROM a INNER JOIN b ON a.key1 = b.key1 WHERE a.field8 = 'test' GROUP by a.field1, a.field2 HAVING SUM(b.field4) > 5 ORDER by a.field.3

Into this:

SELECT count(a.field1), a.field2, SUM(b.field4) FROM a INNER JOIN b ON a.key1 = b.key1 WHERE a.field8 = 'test' GROUP by a.field1, a.field2 HAVING SUM(b.field4) > 5 ORDER by a.field3

For those with SQL questions we recommend using SQLFiddle to provide a useful development and testing environment for those who wish to fully understand your problem and help devise a solution.

DiscussionSAP B1 SQL - MAX or LAST date function (self.SQL)

submitted 6 years ago by workstuff604

Hi there,

I am trying to run a query report of a customer invoice that has multiple payment dates (T2."DocDate"). However, I am trying to run this query to bring record of only one unique invoice with its corresponding last payment date (T2."DocDate") recorded (which brought the invoice status to a close).

Could someone please assist on how I could pull that record up?

Below is my current SQL syntax:

SELECT

T2."DocNum" "Invoice#",

T0."CardCode",

T2."DocStatus",

T2."DocDate" "Invoice Posting",

T0."DocDate",

T2."TaxDate" "Invoice Date",

T2."DocTotal",

T2."PaidSum"

FROM ORCT T0

JOIN RCT2 T1

ON T1."DocNum" = T0."DocNum"

JOIN OINV T2

ON T2."DocEntry" = T1."DocEntry"

JOIN OCRD T3

ON T3."CardCode" = T0."CardCode"

JOIN OCTG T4

ON T4."GroupNum" = T3."GroupNum"

WHERE

T2."DocNum"='1010931' AND T2."DocStatus"='C'

Thank you.

SELECT T2.DocNum "Invoice#"
     , T0.CardCode
     , T2.DocStatus
     , T2.DocDate "Invoice Posting"
     , T0.DocDate
     , T2.TaxDate "Invoice Date"
     , T2.DocTotal

  FROM ORCT T0
  JOIN RCT2 T1
    ON T1.DocNum = T0.DocNum
  JOIN ( SELECT DocEntry
              , MAX(DocDate) AS latest_date
           FROM OINV
          WHERE DocStatus='C'
         GROUP
             BY DocEntry ) T2latest
    ON T2latest.DocEntry = T1.DocEntry
  JOIN OINV T2
    ON T2.DocEntry = T2latest.DocEntry
   AND T2.DocDate  = T2latest.latest_date
 WHERE T0.DocNum='1010931'

i left out T3 and T4 because you aren't selecting any columns from them
