Question

I can’t check it right now (don’t have a compiler right now), but will that query executes ?

select myTable.id_customer, [my_procedure_or_function](myTable.id_customer)

from myTable

group by myTable.id_customer

that procedure/function returns a NUMERIC(18,0) or NULL

to sum up, I need to select distinct id_customer from that table and for that id – get a number/null value currently associated with that id_customer

Answer 1

Syntactically it will work for a scalar UDF but not a stored procedure.

select myTable.id_customer, mySchema.myFunction(myTable.id_customer) As myAlias
from myTable
group by myTable.id_customer

However dependant upon what the scalar UDF is doing there may be more performant approaches. If it is looking up a value in another table for example it is often best to simply inline this logic into the query.
