10/04/2011 17:02:35
10/11/2011 18:25:32

I want to pair the check ins with the check outs given the condition that both logs are on the same date and check out values cannot be earlier than check ins, so I have come up with this query

  SELECT A.ChkDt
      AS CheckDate,
         B.CheckIn,
         MIN(A.ChkTm)
      AS CheckOut
    FROM #tempAttLogs
      AS A LEFT JOIN
         (SELECT ChkDt
              AS CheckDate,
                 MIN(ChkTm)
              AS CheckIn
            FROM #tempAttLogs
           WHERE ChkTp = 'I'
        GROUP BY ChkDt) B
      ON A.ChkDt = B.CheckDate
   WHERE ChkTp = 'O' AND
         A.ChkTm > B.CheckIn
GROUP BY A.ChkDt, B.CheckIn

With a result set of

CheckDate  CheckIn   CheckOut
---------- --------- ---------
06/21/2011 12:36:47  17:03:46
07/19/2011 13:58:52  16:40:15
07/26/2011 15:11:24  17:27:08
08/02/2011 10:10:03  13:29:40
08/09/2011 13:52:10  14:36:09
08/16/2011 14:49:36  17:06:34
08/23/2011 15:48:58  17:01:37
09/06/2011 15:23:00  17:00:09
09/13/2011 10:09:27  10:11:50
09/20/2011 11:03:42  11:55:31
10/04/2011 11:37:59  13:26:31
10/11/2011 18:19:33  18:25:32

The thing is I also want to include the logs with no corresponding pairs. How can this be possible?

EDIT

My expected result set must include logs like this

CheckDate  CheckIn   CheckOut
---------- --------- ---------
05/23/2011 NULL      17:04:27

Answer 1

You can move any predicate referencing the right hand table into the ON clause instead of the WHERE to avoid turning the JOIN into an INNER JOIN

e.g.

ON A.ChkDt = B.CheckDate AND
         A.ChkTm > B.CheckIn
WHERE ChkTp = 'O'

Instead of

    ON A.ChkDt = B.CheckDate
   WHERE ChkTp = 'O' AND
         A.ChkTm > B.CheckIn
