Join tables from different NAV databases

Posted on by Sandra K 30

I need to have the data from one particular table that are available in four NAV dbas (4 different tables), consolidated in one table. I believe that the procedure would be to create an extra table in one of the dbas that will pull information from the 4 tables and consolidating it. I would also need to create in this new table, a column reporting where the data came from. Ideally, I would have to create a routine of updating this table every 10th of each month.
 
My question: Is it possible to do the described procedure? Is it very complicated?
 
I would really appreciate some help. Thank you! Sandra

    Hi Sandra,

    You might need to add a little extra to your post in order to determine how people may answer.

    1) Are you using SQL databases?

    2) Do you want this table to be available for reporting/use in Navision?  Or for another external system?

    For example:

    1) If SQL databases.

    2) If you want the consolidated table to be available outside of Nav

    3) If the tables contain EXACTLY the same fields.

    4) If you want to just combine all the results together (not removing duplications)

    In this specific situation you could utilise what is termed a UNION query within SQL.  The UNION ALL option will allow you to join the tables together, and will just combine all the records (as it assumes the fields are the same).  There is even an option to add a "Text string" to determine what records came from what tables.

    This is a good page - office.microsoft.com/.../combine-the-results-of-several-select-queries-by-using-a-union-query-HA010206109.aspx
