I am messing around with some things in a test database and came across something I would like to do. In the future I will have to update some information in a table with new dates and budget info. Here is my code...
USE REPORTING
DECLARE
@JAN MONEY = 100.00
INSERT INTO FACTBUDGET (BUDGETAMOUNT)
SELECT
CASE WHEN BUDGETDATEID 20141231 AND BUDGETDATEID < 20150201 AND MISCID = 0
THEN @JAN
ELSE 'BUDGET NEEDED'
END AS BUDGETDATEID
FROM FACTBUDGET
When I run this the variable goes into that column but to almost all records. Am i doing this the easiest way? I was thinking of creating a temp table but thought that would be too much data to create.The variables will be created for each month along with case statements. This way I only have to enter in the amounts when given, I have another instert statement created that I know works for the budget date.
