LVS_CONT_RECENT_DT

 

I don’t quite know the purpose of this view, but this identifies the highest ref_no for a customer, which is likely but not necessarily the latest contribution.  Also it doesn’t return any interesting fields for an output set.  This might work better for you.

BWG

 

CREATE View [dbo].[LV_CONTRIBUTION_LAST]

 

AS

SELECT

  a.customer_no,

  dbo.LF_GET_midnight (max(a.cont_dt)) 'last_cont_dt',

  sum(a.cont_amt) 'last_cont_amt',

  max(b.description) 'last_fund_desc',

  MAX(b.fund_no) 'last_fund_no',

  MAX(a.channel) 'last_sales_channel_no',

  max(c.description) 'last_sales_channel'

from [dbo].T_CONTRIBUTION a

join t_fund b on a.fund_no = b.fund_no

join tr_sales_channel c on a.channel = c.id

where a.cont_dt = (select max(b.cont_dt)

                  from t_contribution b

                  where b.customer_no = a.customer_no)

 

GROUP BY a.customer_no

 

 

And if you need the function used above:

 

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[LF_GET_MIDNIGHT] (

      @InDate datetime

)

RETURNS datetime

AS

BEGIN

 

declare @OutDate datetime

-- add input date to base date, time set to 0/midnight

SELECT @OutDate = DATEADD

(     day,

      DATEDIFF

      ( day,0, @InDate

      ),

      0

);

return @OutDate

END

GO

Hi John,

That's correct. You'll need your DBA to create the database view before you can reference it in your output set elements.

In general I think the naming convention is that any time you have a table or a view starting with "L" it refers to something Local, i.e. a customization rather than one of the out-of-the-box Tessitura tables, views, etc. Something prefixed with LT_ is a local table, LV_ is a local view, LVS_ is a local secure view, and so on.

I was trying to use LVS_CONT_RECENT_DT in an output set based on something in the updated cookbook for v.11, and come to find out that is not one of our three views.    I am in dev, so I've never set up a view, but I guess that's what this does (which follows after the output set bits I'm familiar with)?
