Question

I am trying to have a table like this:

Manager     Expert          Adminis. Staff
Dept        A.P. | C.P.     A.P. | C.P.     A.P. | C.P.
Management      1   1       1   0              1    1   
Accounting      1   1       1   1              0    0
IT              1   1       2   1              0    0

A.P. = Available Position number
C.P. = Current Position number

A.P. comes from table named Positions:

[Positions](
    [id] [numeric](19, 0) IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,   
    [NumOfAvailablePositions] [int] NULL,
    [PositionType] [varchar](255) NULL, 
    [DepartmentId] [numeric](19, 0) NULL
    )

and C.P. is the count of Title_Names from Title table:

[Title](
    [id] [numeric](19, 0) IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,   
    [Title_Name] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,    
    [Department_Id] [numeric](19, 0) NULL,  
    [Position_Type] [varchar](255) NULL,
    )

In summary I am trying to have the results of these 2 queries:

SELECT   DepartmentId, PositionType, NumOfAvailablePositions  
FROM Positions 

SELECT Department_Id, Position_Type, Count (Position_Type) as CurrentPositions
FROM Title group by Department_Id, Position_Type

and join the results in one table (described above).

I tried joining the tables with the following script:

SELECT Department_Id, PositionType, Count(Position_Type) as PositionCountTitle, Positions.DepartmentId, Positions.NumOfAvailablePositions  
FROM Title, Positions 
GROUP BY Position_Type, Department_Id, Positions.DepartmentId, Positions.NumOfAvailablePositions 
HAVING Title.Department_Id = Positions.DepartmentId

But it produced wrong results. Do you have any reccommendations to solve this problem in Jasper IReports?

Answer 1

Try replacing your FROM Title, Positions with

FROM Title INNER JOIN Positions ON Title.[Position_Type]=Positions.[Position_Type]
