i have sql pulling back data from 2 tables (Ticket, Assignment) matching on an ID.

however the Assignment table can have more than 1 record for a matching ID in the Ticket table so is bringing back rows for each of these entries HOWEVER i only want 1 row returned matching on the FIRST record in Assignment table (on earliest DateAssigned field)

heres my code


SELECT t.TicketID, CreatedByUserID, CreatedForUserID, DateCreated, a.DateAssigned FROM Ticket t
	INNER JOIN Assignment a ON (SELECT TOP 1 TicketID FROM Assignment
    WHERE [TicketID] = t.TicketID
    ORDER BY DateAssigned ASC) = t.TicketID	
	    
	WHERE (CreatedByUserID NOT IN (SELECT u.UserID FROM Users u
	INNER JOIN Profiles p ON u.UserID = p.UserID
	INNER JOIN Department d ON d.DepartmentID = p.DepartmentID
	WHERE d.ParentDepartmentID = 3 AND u.Active = 1)
	OR CreatedForUserID NOT IN (SELECT u.UserID FROM Users u
	INNER JOIN Profiles p ON u.UserID = p.UserID
	INNER JOIN Department d ON d.DepartmentID = p.DepartmentID
	WHERE d.ParentDepartmentID = 3 AND u.Active = 1))
    AND (t.DateCreated BETWEEN '05/11/2013' AND '06/11/2013')
	AND RHDUserID IN (SELECT u.UserID FROM Users u
	INNER JOIN Profiles p ON u.UserID = p.UserID
	INNER JOIN Department d ON d.DepartmentID = p.DepartmentID
	WHERE d.ParentDepartmentID = 3 AND u.Active = 1)

[code]
SELECT t.TicketID, CreatedByUserID, CreatedForUserID, DateCreated, a.DateAssigned FROM Ticket t
INNER JOIN (SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY TicketID ORDER BY DateAssigned) AS Rn,*
FROM Assignment) a ON a.[TicketID] = t.TicketID
AND a.Rn=1
....
[/code]

hi, can you try this?


SELECT 
	t.TicketID, 
	CreatedByUserID, 
	CreatedForUserID, 
	DateCreated, 
	a.DateAssigned 
FROM	Ticket t
	JOIN Assignment a 
	ON a.DateAssigned = (SELECT	MAX(DateAssigned)
				FROM	Assignment
				WHERE	[TicketID] = t.TicketID)

WHERE	EXISTS (SELECT	1
		FROM	Users u
			INNER JOIN Profiles p 
			ON u.UserID = p.UserID
			INNER JOIN Department d 
			ON d.DepartmentID = p.DepartmentID
		WHERE	d.ParentDepartmentID = 3 
			AND u.Active = 1
			AND (CreatedByUserID <> u.UserID OR CreatedForUserID <> u.UserID)
			AND (RHDUserID = u.UserID))
	AND (t.DateCreated BETWEEN '05/11/2013' AND '06/11/2013')
