RE: AS400 Query Question -- MAPICS-L

The nice thing about using Client Access file transfer you can do the SQL
selections, save the whole definition, display/file(Excel, tab, etc./or
print(local print), and make it an icon and launch as needed... doesn't need
to open a green screen.  Nice desktop reporting.

We also entered SQL statements using STRSQL and saved them to source,
compiled, then called (or set to run on a schedule).  The only thing we ran
into with these is if the file is not journaled, the RPG did not work.  It
does not error out, just doesn't do the delete records we were trying to do
(in one case).

No but you can use F13 to change the session attributes to 2 for the Select
output destination which will produce a spool file of the data.

Lisa,

Is there a print statement after selecting the data?

Thanks,

By using STRSQL (AS400 SQL) you can run the SQL statement below.

Subject: AS400 Query Question


Hello Group,
I'm new to MAPICS and AS400 queries, but do have experience writing SQL
queries. I've been working on our MAPICS implementation for the last 4
months and this is the first time I'm writing AS400 queries. Basically, I'm
having trouble trying to incorporate GROUP BY aggregate function in an AS400
query. I guess I haven't defined my report summary functions and report
breaks the right way. I would like to query ITEMBL file to get a total
on-hand inventory value for all warehouses. The SQL version of this would
look like this:

SELECT HOUSE, Sum(AVCST* MOHTQ) AS INVENTORY_VALUE
FROM ITEMBL
GROUP BY HOUSE

HOUSE = Warehouse
AVCST = Avg Unit Cost
MOHTQ = On Hand Total Quantity

I would like my report to look like this:

Warehouse       INVENTORY_VALUE
PBC             $107,117.41
PBD             $157,116.41
PBX             $257,116.41

Any suggestions on how to accomplish the above will be appreciated. Could
you also point me towards good online documentation/books on AS400 queries.

Thanks,
Nandu
