Working with the following code.


declare @emailflag char(1)

select @emailflag = emailflag from email
if @emailflag = 'N'
begin

EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
    @profile_name = 'PTC',
    @recipients = 'erin.vackert@estagroup.com',
    @body = 'Invoices have started posting.',
    @subject = 'Invoices have started posting'

end
update email
set emailflag = ' Y'

end

I only want the above code to run if my count is greater than 1.

select count(*) as count
from oehdrhst_sql
where posted_dt > dateadd(mi,-5,getdate())

Here is what I have. at the very end where I have

update email
set emailflag = 'Y'

The flag is not updating. The script runs without any errors.

Actually I had to change the beginning If statement as well. When I run the script I no longer get an email sent either.


IF (select count(*) as count 
	from oehdrhst_sql
	where month(posted_dt) = month(getdate()) and day(posted_dt) = day(getdate())
and year(posted_dt) = year(getdate()))> 1

BEGIN

declare @emailflag char(1)

select @emailflag = emailflag from email
if @emailflag = 'N'
begin

EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
    @profile_name = 'PTC',
    @recipients = 'erin.vackert@estagroup.com',
    @body = 'Invoices have started posting.',
    @subject = 'Invoices have started posting'

end
begin
update email
set emailflag = 'Y'
end

END

you've an extra begin end so its no longer inside if block


IF (select count(*) as count 
	from oehdrhst_sql
	where month(posted_dt) = month(getdate()) and day(posted_dt) = day(getdate())
and year(posted_dt) = year(getdate()))> 1

BEGIN

declare @emailflag char(1)

select @emailflag = emailflag from email
if @emailflag = 'N'
begin

EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
    @profile_name = 'PTC',
    @recipients = 'erin.vackert@estagroup.com',
    @body = 'Invoices have started posting.',
    @subject = 'Invoices have started posting'

end
begin
update email
set emailflag = 'Y'
end

END

Nope. Just retested and sent a test email and I received an email. So I know that part is setup correctly and working.

If I only run this portion an email is sent as well:

declare @emailflag char(1)

select @emailflag = emailflag from email
if @emailflag = 'N'
begin

EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
@profile_name = 'PTC',
@recipients = 'erin.vackert@estagroup.com',
@body = 'Invoices have started posting.',
@subject = 'Invoices have started posting'

end

I apologize. Stupid mistake on my part. In the beginning I needed "> 0" and not "> 1".

I only had one record in the data I was testing against. Sorry for wasting your time.

It is working now. Thanks
