how can I use the new variable created by case when

  • I have two variables SCR_1, SCR_2 created by case when sentence. Is there a way I can use them in the same query to get another variable TOT= SCR_1+SCR_2? Thanks.

    SELECT a.[Account_ID_nbr]
                 ,[SCR_1]=
          (case when a.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb<0.14 then 58
        when (0.14<=a.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb and b.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb <0.5) then 20
        when 0.5<=a.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb then -14
        else 22
        end
        )
                  ,[SCR_2]=
       (case when a.n_pmt_Y0<2 then -13
        when (2<=a.n_pmt_Y0 and a.n_pmt_Y0<6) then 24
        when (6<=a.n_pmt_Y0 and a.n_pmt_Y0<21) then 43
        when (21<=a.n_pmt_Y0 and a.n_pmt_Y0<38) then 63
        when 38<=a.n_pmt_Y0 then 127
        end
        )

  • You say your have variables, but these are column names in your query. Variables start with an @ at the beginning.

    You could use a CTE to do this if you wanted:
    WITH CTE AS (
      SELECT a.Account_ID_nbr,
            CASE WHEN a.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb < 0.14 THEN 58
                  WHEN a.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb >= 0.14 AND b.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb < 0.5 THEN 20
                  WHEN a.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb >= 0.5 THEN -14
                  ELSE 22 END AS SCR_1,
            CASE WHEN a.n_pmt_Y0<2 then -13
                  WHEN a.n_pmt_Y0 >= 2 AND a.n_pmt_Y0 < 6 THEN 24
                  WHEN a.n_pmt_Y0 >= 6 AND a.n_pmt_Y0 < 21 THEN 43
                  WHEN a.n_pmt_Y0 >= 21 AND a.n_pmt_Y0 < 38 THEN 63
                  WHEN a.n_pmt_Y0 >= 38 THEN 127 END AS SCR_2
      FROM a )
    SELECT CTE.Account_ID_nbr,

           CTE.SCR_1,
           CTE.SCR_2,
           CTE.SCR_1 + CTE.SCR_2 AS TOT
    FROM CTE;

  • You can use APPLY to effectively assign alias names to expressions / results.  You can even nest APPLYs so that the alias from one is used in the next one.


    SELECT a.[Account_ID_nbr]
    ,ca.[SCR_1]
    ,ca.[SCR_2]
    ,TOT=ca.[SCR_1]+ca.[SCR_2]
    from a
    cross apply (
      select
      [SCR_1]=
      (case when a.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb<0.14 then 58
      when (0.14<=a.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb and b.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb <0.5) then 20
      when 0.5<=a.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb then -14
      else 22
      end),
      [SCR_2]=
      (case when a.n_pmt_Y0<2 then -13
      when (2<=a.n_pmt_Y0 and a.n_pmt_Y0<6) then 24
      when (6<=a.n_pmt_Y0 and a.n_pmt_Y0<21) then 43
      when (21<=a.n_pmt_Y0 and a.n_pmt_Y0<38) then 63
      when 38<=a.n_pmt_Y0 then 127
      end)
    ) as ca

    --nested version, just as an example
    SELECT a.[Account_ID_nbr]
    ,ca.[SCR_1]
    ,ca.[SCR_2]
    ,ca2.[TOT]
    from a
    cross apply (
      select
      [SCR_1]=
      (case when a.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb<0.14 then 58
      when (0.14<=a.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb and b.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb <0.5) then 20
      when 0.5<=a.MAX_PCT_ACCTS_LST_QTRb then -14
      else 22
      end),
      [SCR_2]=
      (case when a.n_pmt_Y0<2 then -13
      when (2<=a.n_pmt_Y0 and a.n_pmt_Y0<6) then 24
      when (6<=a.n_pmt_Y0 and a.n_pmt_Y0<21) then 43
      when (21<=a.n_pmt_Y0 and a.n_pmt_Y0<38) then 63
      when 38<=a.n_pmt_Y0 then 127
      end)
    ) as ca
    cross apply (
      select
      [TOT]=ca.[SCR_1]+ca.[SCR_2]
    ) as ca2
