It's only 2 rows of data.  To test with different cases I added some additional rows.  Afaik you're looking to conditionally apply the sum of invoiceid credits from 'creditmemo' to...

It seems you're looking for the COALESCE function.  If the empty values are stored as '' then NULLIF returns NULL.  COALESCE returns the first (left to right of the parameter...

To split out the pd_id's you could try STRING_SPLIT to separate based on space delimiter.  Since some 'PD-[0-9]' values are encompassed by other extra characters a conditional substring is done...

THAT, good Sir, is a beautiful thing!  All you need to do now is give the author of that good function a little credit by citing the article where...

Afaik this actually produces the desired output.  Should work with SQL 2014.  It uses the ordinal splitter DelimitedSplit8K_Lead.  The query: splits the input string on '_' underscore, finds the offset...

Instead of a WHILE loop you could try a numbers table or tally function approach

declare @string varchar(255) = 'EMA_20210526T211254_0000_MRNMM0000001240_PMS110460PAT000001287_PID15235307_OR_Dr';

select string_agg(v.chr, '') within group (order by fn.n)...

These two statements are equivalent afaik.  Beginning with [Edit] 2022 (or compatibility level 150 in Azure SQL) they added the GREATEST function.  Prior ways were UNPIVOT using the built-in verb...

It appears to be a nonworking attempt at a catch all query.  Imo the easy answer is two procedures or however many are necessary.  In this case imo the OP...

Since the current code uses REPLACE with strings of equal length followed by LEFT(8), it's equivalent to SUBSTRING(input_string, 38, 8)

select v.in_str, substring(v.in_str, 38, 8) inv_num
from (values ('Company...

You could try the PATINDEX function and look for the first occurrence of 8 consecutive integers enclosed in parentheses.  Instead of typing the criteria 8 times this uses REPLICATE.  The...
