SQL CASE statement mutliple GUID's = same value
I have a case statement that is as follows:
CASE id
WHEN '9FDAC41CBF5ED6E3758' THEN 'Invalid'
WHEN '5EBF056B16E7593' THEN 'Invali开发者_如何学编程d'
WHEN 'EEDC43399D10F44A19E293BB' THEN 'Invalid'
WHEN '2322' THEN 'No'
ELSE 'Yes'
END AS [Test]
Is it possible to put the 3 when clauses in 1 when clause since they are essentially returning the same value?
Yes. See below.
CASE WHEN [SomeColumn] = '9FDAC41CBF5ED6E3758'
OR [SomeColumn] = '5EBF056B16E7593'
OR [SomeColumn] = 'EEDC43399D10F44A19E293BB'
THEN 'Invalid'
WHEN '2322' THEN 'No'
ELSE 'Yes'END AS [Test]
You could also use IN
CASE WHEN [SomeColumn] IN('9FDAC41CBF5ED6E3758', '5EBF056B16E7593', 'EEDC43399D10F44A19E293BB')
THEN 'Invalid'
WHEN '2322' THEN 'No'
ELSE 'Yes'END AS [Test]
CASE
WHEN [SomeColumn] IN ('9FDAC41CBF5ED6E3758', '5EBF056B16E7593', 'EEDC43399D10F44A19E293BB') THEN 'Invalid'
WHEN [SomeColumn] = '2322' THEN 'No'
ELSE 'Yes'
END AS [Test]
Note: I've included your "no" condition too...
If you are going to have a very long list of "invalid" guids, then you could store them in a separate table (INVALID_GUIDS in my example). If you did that, your statement would look like this:
CASE
WHEN [SomeColumn] IN (SELECT GUID FROM INVALID_GUIDS) THEN 'Invalid'
WHEN [SomeColumn] = '2322' THEN 'No'
ELSE 'Yes'
END AS [Test]
CASE WHEN:
WHEN id IN ('9FDAC41CBF5ED6E3758', '5EBF056B16E7593', 'EEDC43399D10F44A19E293BB') THEN 'Invalid'
ELSE 'Yes'
END AS [Test]
I propose rather than a hard-coded list of GUIDs that these should rather be in a table somewhere, then you can use a SQL syntax as follows:
SELECT MyTable.ColumnA ...
WHERE MyTable.GUID NOT IN
(SELECT InvalidGUID FROM InvalidGUIDs)
A slight alternative to JosephStyons answer in case you don't prefer an inline query inside a case statement.
SELECT
CASE
WHEN ig.Guid IS NOT NULL THEN 'Invalid'
WHEN [SomeColumn] = '2322' THEN 'No'
ELSE 'Yes'
END AS [Test]
FROM
YourTable yt
LEFT JOIN INVALID_GUIDS ig
ON yt.SomeColumn = ig.GUID
