Hi,
I am trying to execute a Stored Procedure after two other jobs in the schedule have completed successfully, so I am looking to a specific filed (DW_CREATED_DATE) which is the date that the data loaded.
This is what I have done, but it seems that the EXECUTE do not work within the CASE statement, so I am looking for help on the solution.
[
SELECT
CASE
WHEN cast(A.[DW_CREATED_DATE] as date) = '2017-12-03' AND cast(B.[DW_CREATED_DATE] as date) = '2017-12-03' THEN EXEC sp_ChurnRate
else NULL end
FROM TABLE_A A
INNER JOIN TABLE_B B ON CAST(B.[DW_CREATED_DATE] AS DATE) = CAST(A.[DW_CREATED_DATE] AS DATE)
When running the above, I get the error message:
<< Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'EXEC'. >>
Any help and all help is very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
All help and Any help

What are you trying to do here exactly??? You can't execute a stored procedure inside a SELECT statement. At a pure guess, maybe what you're after is a (Table Value) function, however, without knowing what sp_ChurnRate does, and how it related to the rest of your statement, that;s about all the advice I can give.
You'd be better off providing the SQL for sp_ChurnRate, which would be a start. We may then also need DDL for your Table, as well as consumable sample data and your expected output.

Hi, Many thanks for your reply. What I'm trying to do is running a script/code which I put in a ‘Stored Procedure’ after the other two jobs have completed successfully
This is the stored procedure, which delete all records from the table and then insert the most recent information in the table
AS
DELETE FROM [Imart].[ChurnRate]
INSERT INTO [Imart].[ChurnRate]
SELECT
BASE.SUBS_WEEK_AND_YEAR, DAY_ID, DATE, CHURN.BB_PACKAGE ,CHURN.DTH_CUSTOMER_TYPE, CURRWK, LASTWK, TOTAL_CHURN
FROM
(select
subs_week_and_Year, Day_ID, cast(CALENDAR_DATE as date) date, BB_PACKAGE_DESC, sum(CURR_WEEK) currwk, sum(LAST_WEEK) LASTWK,DTH_CUSTOMER_TYPE
from dbo.Base
group by
subs_week_and_Year, Day_ID, cast(CALENDAR_DATE as date), BB_PACKAGE_DESC, DTH_CUSTOMER_TYPE
) BASE
left JOIN
(SELECT
SUBS_WEEK_AND_YEAR, BB_PACKAGE, DTH_CUSTOMER_TYPE, SUM(TOTAL_RECORDS) TOTAL_CHURN
FROM Imart.BB_Churn
GROUP BY
SUBS_WEEK_AND_YEAR, BB_PACKAGE, DTH_CUSTOMER_TYPE
) CHURN ON CHURN.SUBS_WEEK_AND_YEAR = BASE.SUBS_WEEK_AND_YEAR
AND CHURN.BB_PACKAGE = BASE.BB_PACKAGE_DESC
and churn.DTH_CUSTOMER_TYPE = base.DTH_CUSTOMER_TYPE
ORDER BY
BASE.subs_week_and_Year ASC
;
Again, many thanks for the help.

Wait... That SP is only doing deletes and inserts..? What would you be expecting your unnamed column to be returning in your select statement, considering that your SP isn't returning any data.

Think this is more workflow, so instead of SELECT CASE should be an IF statement.
Vitor da Fonseca - Monday, December 4, 2017 6:08 AMHi, Many thanks for your reply. What I'm trying to do is running a script/code which I put in a ‘Stored Procedure’ after the other two jobs have completed successfully
What is the logic behind the two jobs, how do they execute, is it via SQL Agent, windows task scheduler or some other methods?
If they are automated jobs like the SQL Agent, just add another step and do an IF check
IF This = That
BEGIN
EXEC sp_churnrate
END

The SP delete all records from the table "Imart.ChurnRate" and then inserts information from two other different tables with these column names:
BASE.SUBS_WEEK_AND_YEAR, DAY_ID, DATE, CHURN.BB_PACKAGE ,CHURN.DTH_CUSTOMER_TYPE, CURRWK, LASTWK, TOTAL_CHURN
What I am trying to do is instead of guessing a time that the first two jobs are completed successfully, is to have a job which run the SQL to build the table Imart.ChurnRate.
The first two jobs when they run, the column DW_CREATED_DATE is added with the date that it run, i.e. when they have run today the column will be populated for all records with today's date (04-12-2017), this also serves as a check, and off course if for any reason something went wrong I am able to run the query again for the date required.
I hope that I've managed to explain, and please I apologise if my English is not the most correct...
Thanks in advance,

If its a Job, add a 3rd step to run the stored proc
So the logic would be
Step1 - Populate Base Table, on success go to next step, on failure quit report failure
Step 2 - Populate BB_Churn, on success go to next, on failure quit report failure
Step 3 - Execute sp_churnrate, on success quit report success, on failure quit report failure

Not as simple as that, sorry
Two distinct jobs which one with different steps, that is why I am having difficulties: crying:

Why not get the jobs to call each other, End of Job 1 Start Job 2, End of Job 2 Start Job 3
Create a logic table, end of Job 1 Populate a table with a row of value 1. end of Job 2 Populate a second row with value 1. job 3 running always, if sum(value) = 2 exec sp_churnrate reset the values to 0. rinse and repeat or go with IF TableA.Date = CONVERT(DATE,GETDATE()) AND TableB.Date = CONVERT(DATE,GETDATE()) EXEC sp_churnrate.
Problem with the latter option if the job is constantly running to check if the values match then the stored proc will always be running.

Great, Many thanks,
I will try to build something with your first solution, I hope I can do it :D, still a newbie when it comes to SQL
