Posted on by Waed Ayyad 8,258 Super User 2025 Season 1
Hi All,
 
I am trying to achieve this query

{SELECT FIRSTFAST * FROM DimAttributeOMCostCenter(ds) ORDER BY DimAttributeOMCostCenter.Value ASC NOTEXISTS JOIN 'x' FROM DimensionAttributeValueLedgerView(DimensionAttributeValueLedgerView_1) WHERE DimAttributeOMCostCenter.Key = DimensionAttributeValueLedgerView.EntityInstance  /
 
using Data entity. How can I achieve this? I tried it but when I see the design from sql it is return this:
 
/SELECT   T1.RECID AS KEY_, T1.OMOPERATINGUNITNUMBER AS VALUE, T1.PARTITION, T1.RECID, T2.NAME, T2.PARTITION AS PARTITION#2
FROM     dbo.DIRPARTYTABLE AS T1 INNER JOIN
             dbo.DIRPARTYTABLE AS T2 ON T1.RECID = T2.RECID AND T1.PARTITION = T2.PARTITION
WHERE   (T1.OMOPERATINGUNITTYPE = 2) AND (NOT EXISTS
                 (SELECT   TOP (1) ' x ' AS Expr1
                 FROM     dbo.DIMENSIONATTRIBUTEVALUELEDGERVIEW AS T3
                 WHERE   (ISSUSPENDED = 1) AND (T1.RECID = ENTITYINSTANCE) AND (T1.PARTITION = PARTITION))) AND (T1.INSTANCERELATIONTYPE IN (10781))/
 
 
Any hint?

    You need a data entity same like the first query. So You can simply create a data entity with those datasources and join them as per relation. If data entity is showing different as shown in the 2nd select query, then can you tell us why Dirpartytable is added? Also, we can give more information if you give us more details about the data entity how it is built.

    Your initial query is a bit complex due to the NOTEXISTS JOIN and the aliasing of the joined table. To achieve this using a Data Entity, you'll need to follow the standard patterns for creating queries in Data Entities.

    In this case, you would create a custom Data Entity based on the table DimAttributeOMCostCenter and then add a data source that joins with the DimensionAttributeValueLedgerView based on your conditions.

    Hi Waed,
     
    Can you explain functionally what you want to achieve? Is this query the data entity query itself or would you need this for a calculated field? What exact output are you expectting and what is the current behavior?
