I have a stored procedure that contains a case statement inside a select statement.
select Invoice_ID, 'Unknown' as Invoice_Status,
case when Invoice_Printed is null then '' else 'Y' end as Invoice_Printed,
case when Invoice_DeliveryDate is null then '' else 'Y' end as Invoice_Delivered,
case when Invoice_DeliveryType <> 'USPS' then '' else 'Y' end as Invoice_eDeliver,
Invoice_ContactLName+', '+Invoice_ContactFName as ContactName,
from dbo.Invoice
left outer join dbo.fnInvoiceCurrentStatus() on Invoice_ID=CUST_InvoiceID
where CUST_StatusID= 7
order by Inv_Created
At line case when Invoice_DeliveryType <> 'USPS' then '' else 'Y' end as Invoice_eDeliver
I need to check for a valid email address (if email is valid, display Y, else display N).
So the line would read:
if Invoice_DeliveryType <> 'USPS' then '' else ( If ISNULL(Select emailaddr from dbo.Client Where Client_ID = SUBSTRING(Invoice_ID, 1, 6)), 'Y', 'N')
How can I write out this query?
You can do this with a case
. I think the following is the logic you want:
(case when Invoice_DeliveryType <> 'USPS' then ''
when exists (Select 1
from dbo.Client c
Where c.Client_ID = SUBSTRING(i.Invoice_ID, 1, 6) and
c.emailaddr is not null
)
then 'Y'
else 'N'
end)
