I want to generate a XML file using a specific query. The main issue is that when I generate the XML, the output would look like this:
<nsSAFT:Account xmlns:nsSAFT="uri">
<nsSAFT:Produs>
<nsSAFT:CodProdus>0200943</nsSAFT:CodProdus>
<nsSAFT:Denumire>SPRAY SPECIAL EFECT 151 SILVER METAL</nsSAFT:Denumire>
<nsSAFT:Miscari>
<nsSAFT:Cantitate> 1.00</nsSAFT:Cantitate>
</nsSAFT:Miscari>
</nsSAFT:Produs>
</nsSAFT:Account>
<nsSAFT:Account xmlns:nsSAFT="uri">
<nsSAFT:Produs>
<nsSAFT:CodProdus>0200943</nsSAFT:CodProdus>
<nsSAFT:Denumire>SPRAY SPECIAL EFECT 151 SILVER METAL</nsSAFT:Denumire>
<nsSAFT:Miscari>
<nsSAFT:Cantitate> 2.00</nsSAFT:Cantitate>
</nsSAFT:Miscari>
</nsSAFT:Produs>
</nsSAFT:Account>
The main problem is that I want to have multiple children on the same product. My expected output would look like this:
<nsSAFT:Account xmlns:nsSAFT="uri">
<nsSAFT:Produs>
<nsSAFT:CodProdus>0200943</nsSAFT:CodProdus>
<nsSAFT:Denumire>SPRAY SPECIAL EFECT 151 SILVER METAL</nsSAFT:Denumire>
<nsSAFT:Miscari>
<nsSAFT:Cantitate> 1.00</nsSAFT:Cantitate>
</nsSAFT:Miscari>
<nsSAFT:Miscari>
<nsSAFT:Cantitate> 2.00</nsSAFT:Cantitate>
</nsSAFT:Miscari>
</nsSAFT:Produs>
</nsSAFT:Account>
The SQL query I used for generating the first output mentioned by me looks like this:
WITH XMLNAMESPACES ('uri' as nsSAFT)
SELECT
RTRIM(P.codProdus) AS 'nsSAFT:Produs/nsSAFT:CodProdus',
RTRIM(P.Denumire) AS 'nsSAFT:Produs/nsSAFT:Denumire',
STR(M.Cantitate, 18, 2) AS 'nsSAFT:Produs/nsSAFT:Miscari/nsSAFT:Cantitate'
FROM
Miscari M
INNER JOIN
ProdusGestiune PG ON M.idProdusGestiune = PG.idProdusGestiune
INNER JOIN
Produs P ON PG.idProdus = P.idProdus
FOR XML PATH ('nsSAFT:Account'), ELEMENTS ;
The data sample would look like this:
CodProdus | Denumire | Cantitate |
---|---|---|
0200943 | SPRAY SPECIAL EFECT 151 SILVER METAL | 1.00 |
0200943 | SPRAY SPECIAL EFECT 151 SILVER METAL | 2.00 |
0200943 | SPRAY SPECIAL EFECT 151 SILVER METAL | 5.00 |
0200947 | SPRAY SPECIAL USE 230 PENETRATING OIL | 6.00 |
I use the following tables:
"Produs":
| CodProdus | Denumire |
|:---- |:------:|
| 0200943 | SPRAY SPECIAL EFECT 151 SILVER METAL |
| 0200954 | SPRAY ACRILIC MAT 9005 400ML |
| 0200955 | SPRAY ACRILIC MAT 9016 400ML |
| 0200960 | SPRAY ACRILIC RAL 3000 400ML |
"Miscari":
| Cantitate|
|:---- |:------:|
| 14.000000 |
| 12.000000 |
| 5.000000 |
I tried to use "select distinct", but the SSMS returns me an error. I also tried multiple queries using "union all" and I met some errors too.
You're probably wanting a subquery to generate correlated Cantitate subelements, such as with the following:
WITH XMLNAMESPACES ('uri' as nsSAFT)
SELECT
RTRIM(P.codProdus) AS [nsSAFT:CodProdus],
RTRIM(P.Denumire) AS [nsSAFT:Denumire],
(
SELECT
STR(M.Cantitate, 18, 2) AS [nsSAFT:Cantitate]
FROM
ProdusGestiune PG
INNER JOIN
Miscari M ON M.idProdusGestiune = PG.idProdusGestiune
WHERE
PG.idProdus = P.idProdus
FOR XML PATH('nsSAFT:Miscari'), TYPE
)
FROM
Produs P
--WHERE codProdus='0200943'
FOR XML PATH('nsSAFT:Produs'), ROOT('nsSAFT:Account'), ELEMENTS;
