Greg,

Sorry if I added any confusion to the topic by my last post. It looks like
you may have been responding to Rob Berendt and not Rob Williams.

Rob,

Thanks for this. I adapted this using our actual tables... Assuming I did
it correctly (big assumption) the result set contains boxes that contain one
of the items/qty.

I might be going down the wrong path here anyway.

What I'm really trying to do is this:

Given an order containing
1 of widget1
1 of widget2
2 of widget3

Knowing the dimensions of each item, I would like to determine what shipping
carton to use.
I was hoping I could my historical data to extrapolate the answer... but
that may be the wrong approach.

Would be nice to call some software that would do that for you.

Thx,
Greg

Sort of like this?
create table rob.cartonarrangement (
cartonarrangementid integer,
carton varchar(30),
itemnumber varchar(30),
cartonquantity integer
);
drop table rob.cartonarrangement;
insert into rob.cartonarrangement values(1, 'boxA', 'widget1', 3); insert
into rob.cartonarrangement values(1, 'boxA', 'widget2', 1); insert into
rob.cartonarrangement values(1, 'boxA', 'widget3', 1); insert into
rob.cartonarrangement values(2, 'boxB', 'widget2', 1); insert into
rob.cartonarrangement values(2, 'boxB', 'widget3', 1); create table
rob.selection (
itemnumber varchar(30),
cartonquantity integer
);
insert into rob.selection values('widget2', 1); insert into rob.selection
values('widget3', 1);

set schema = 'ROB';

With t1 as (
select cartonarrangementid, count(*) as rowcount
from cartonarrangement
group by cartonarrangementid)
select * from t1;

With t1 as (
select cartonarrangementid, count(*) as rowcount
from cartonarrangement
group by cartonarrangementid),
T2 as (
select count(*) as rowcount
from selection),
T3 as (
select *
from cartonarrangement
where itemnumber concat char(cartonquantity) in (
select itemnumber concat char(cartonquantity) from selection))

select t3.*, b.rowcount, c.rowcount
from t3,
lateral (select t1.rowcount from t1
where t1.cartonarrangementid = t3.cartonarrangementid) b, lateral
(select t2.rowcount from t2) c where b.rowcount = c.rowcount ;

We have a historical table containing what items we previous packed into
different boxes. I'd like to draw on that historical data to extrapolate
what box to use when packing the same items/qty again.

BOX TYPE, QTY, SKU

Data might look like this

boxA, 3, widget1
boxA, 1, widget2
boxA, 1, widget3
boxB, 1, widget2
boxB, 1, widget3

And so forth. This means that "boxA" can hold 3 of widget1 and 1 each of
widget2 and widget3

I would like to query the table to so what box type to use when I have 1 of
widget2 and 1 of widget3 (i.e. find "boxB"). In other words, find a
"matching" box type for my current two rows.
1 widget2
1 widget3

Is this even possible with SQL?
