Hi,
I hope this is the right forum for this question. If not, I'm happy to
get some tip on where to post this.
My problem:
I have like 20 tables of data and need to merge these, making a
selection, (and dump it into a text file) to import into a reporting
tool. The tables is like salesrep, value of sales, number of customers,
and som series of codes. If I do a JOIN, I only get the salesreps that
exist in that specific table, but new people are added and some have
left the company. How can this be done??
A short example of the data:
Table_1998:
empl_id | sales98 | customers98 | etc98 | ...
1001 | 12659 | 123 | ffff | ...
1002 | 103674 | 597 | hued | ...
1003 | 23589 | 314 | hjeoir| ...
Table_1999:
empl_id | sales99 | customers99 | etc99 | ...
1001 | 35678 | 213 | dwrer | ...
1002 | 125795 | 603 | freui | ...
1003 | 45678 | 343 | hfiwu | ...
1004 | 8753 | 96 | poijo | ...
Table_2000:
empl_id | sales00 | customers00 | etc00 | ...
1001 | 97361 | 526 | urhfn | ...
1003 | 98716 | 649 | jdwoh | ...
1004 | 15872 | 147 | oijnm | ...
Now I try to get the customersXX columns for every emloyee from these
tables.
What I would like to see in my result:
empl_id | customers98 | customers99 | customers00 | ...
1001 | 123 | 213 | 526 | ...
1002 | 597 | 603 | NULL | ...
1003 | 314 | 343 | 649 | ...
1004 | NULL | 96 | 147 | ...
I've tried everything and I'm out of clues.
Can it be done?? If so, how???
Any help/tips are very welcome!!
