o.cityId
FROM dbo.CityList AS cl
INNER JOIN dbo.[Order] AS o ON o.cityId = cl.CityNameID
GO
CREATE OR ALTER FUNCTION GetShipCityForOrder
(
@OrderID INT
)
RETURNS VARCHAR(50)
WITH SCHEMABINDING
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @city VARCHAR(50);
SELECT @city = os.CityName
FROM dbo.OrderShipping AS os
WHERE os.OrderID = @OrderID;
RETURN @city;
END;
go
