Question

Currently I’m developing a website with MYSQL INNODB and I need someone to help me out how to join tables so I can match the providers with the quote

Here is my tables structure

quote    - quoteId,postcodeId
provider - providerId
areaProviderPreference - postcodeId,providerId
postcode - postcodeId

Basically I need to write a MYSQL query which return a list of all the providers which cover with the quote postcodeId. Can someone help me out please 🙂 I’m totally struggling with it!

Thanks so much in advance.

Cheers

Answer 1

select p.* from provider p
inner join areaProviderPreference ap on p.providerID = ap.providerID
inner join quote q on ap.postcodeId = q.postcodeID

In addition if you need postCode details also, then you need an additional join as

inner join PostCode pc on pc.postCodeId = ap.postcodeId
