Thank you for your qualified thanks, I think.  You've been on this site for a long time so ok maybe something like this is helpful.

My apologies there was a mistake in the code.  You're correct there shouldn't be duplicates as you described.  In the 'xply_cte' CTE the 4th column contained an incorrect table alias. ...

It's not a good approach imo.  It's not necessary or polite to call anyone out.  For my part I'm not familiar with the terms and I'm generally uninterested in gambling. ...

You could maybe replace the whole WHILE LOOP'ing function with Eirikur's LEAD splitter.  If this is SQL Server 2016+ you could use the built-in STRING_SPLIT itvf (since the order...

The query could be simplified, no?  Maybe something like this

select top(1) p.AkcesAutoID
from dbo.podrobnosti p
     join ro.fntStringsToTable('J') ltrs on ltrs.EvidenceLetter = p.EvidenceLetter
  ...

Here's another approach which uses a tally function to row multiply the 'Amount' column value(s) for both credits and debits.  A similar approach to FIFO calculation recently won some...

[Edit] This is pretty much the same as Phil's code in the other thread with same name.

with improper_cte(FirstName, LastName, DOB, ID) as (
    select...

Instead of writing a query to do this crosstab would it be possible to go back to whatever code landed you at those 2 rows with different ID's in the...

Here's something close but not matching because maybe there's an issue with the example results?  Could you explain for LID='L005' and EID='E002' how ALLO='21.00' and DAYSS='6.00' and then the RL...

A framework-ish way could be to use the awkward DATETIMEFROMPARTS and its 7 required parameters.

declare
  @today        [varchar](12) = '44:10:27.766',...

select c1.*
from #categories1 c1
where not exists(select 1
                 from #categories2 c2
 ...

These 2 queries produce the output you're looking for.  It should be said this is not a properly normalized data model.  There seemingly are "non-modelled" relationship(s) in the data which...

Nicely done The Dixie Flatline 🙂

What about checking @@rowcount?  This way 0 would only show up if there are no rows

SELECTCount(InvNo) AS RecordCount, BatchID
FROMBatchOrders
GROUP BY BatchID;
if @@ROWCOUNT=0
    SELECT 0,...

COUNT doesn't return 0 because you've also requested BatchID in the SELECT list.  The FROM clause is evaluated first and there are no rows.  On its own COUNT will always...
