Gary,

You describe two tables vehicle stock and tax requests. The former has a one-to-many relationship wit the second one, right?

But your query involves stock details and used_diary.

What is the relationship of these two new tables to the previous ones?

Could you please kindly supply an example of what you have and of the desired output? For me it would be easier...

Best,
Oliver

Subject: [SQL] left outer join only select newest record


Hi folks,

I know I've seen posts like this before but Google isn't helping today.

I have two tables, vehicle stock and tax requests. Each vehicle can be taxed more than once, but I only want to pull in the most recent tax request - the
one with the highest ud_id.

I have the following, which obviously returning multiple records which then appears that the same vehicle is in stock multiple times. How can I make it
so we only show each vehicle once, showing the most recent tax request
details.


select * from stock_details s
left outer join used_diary u on s.s_registration = u.ud_registration;
