I am looking to create a recursive query that is able to completely map a series of replenishments, to a top level requirement.

Below is some detailed information regarding my problem statement:

I am attempting to design a recursive solution to calculate all subsequent replenishments (and their levels) give a top level requirement, where a requirement is defined as a production or planned order (a MIN type)

I have created this SQLFIDDLE using the below query:

-- schema
CREATE TABLE tblInputs (
    Type VARCHAR(256),
    Order_No VARCHAR(256),
    Planned_No VARCHAR(256),
    Purchase_No VARCHAR(256),
    Direction VARCHAR(256)
);

CREATE TABLE Requirements (
    Order_No VARCHAR(256),
    Planned_No VARCHAR(256),
    Req_ID VARCHAR(256),
    Req_No VARCHAR(256)
);

CREATE TABLE ReqRep (
    Req_ID VARCHAR(256),
    Req_No VARCHAR(256),
    Rep_ID VARCHAR(256)
);

CREATE TABLE Replenishments (
    Rep_ID VARCHAR(256),
    Order_No VARCHAR(256),
    Planned_No VARCHAR(256),
    Purchase_No VARCHAR(256)
);

Using the below query against my SQLFIDDLE, I can essentially get the first "level":

WITH

  -- Use one order as an example
  -- This will eventually be used for many orders at once
  currOrder AS
    (
      SELECT
        tblInputs.Order_No
      FROM
        tblInputs
      WHERE
        Direction = 'PLUS'
        AND
        (Type = 'Production'  OR Type = 'Planned')
        -- Added this for example purposes only!
        AND
        Order_No LIKE '%O103962037%'
     ),

    -- Now get the details about this order being a REQUIREMENT
   Req AS
     (
       SELECT
        -- unique identifier(s), unfortunately two fields combine to make the primary key
         Req_ID,
         Req_No

       FROM
         Requirements
           INNER JOIN currOrder ON currOrder.Order_No = Requirements.Order_No
      ),

   -- This is a giant bridge table of requirements, and replenishments
   -- A requirement can be made up of many replenishments, and a replenishment can satisfy many requirements
   -- Find the replenishments for our specific requirement
   Req_Rep AS
     (
       SELECT DISTINCT
         ReqRep.REP_ID

       FROM
         ReqRep
           INNER JOIN Req ON ReqRep.Req_ID = Req.Req_ID AND ReqRep.Req_No = Req.Req_No
      ),

  -- Now, grab the replenishment data that we care about, and its details
  -- Only one field will be filled in at a time depending on what the replenishment type is
   Rep AS
     (
       SELECT DISTINCT
         Req_Rep.Rep_ID,
         CASE
           WHEN Replenishments.Order_No IS NULL AND Replenishments.Planned_No IS NULL THEN Replenishments.Purchase_No
           WHEN Replenishments.Order_No IS NULL AND Replenishments.Planned_No IS NOT NULL AND Replenishments.Purchase_No IS NULL THEN Replenishments.Planned_No
           WHEN Replenishments.Order_No IS NOT NULL AND Replenishments.Planned_No IS NULL AND Replenishments.Purchase_No IS NULL THEN Replenishments.Order_No
         ELSE NULL END AS The_Number

        FROM
         Req_Rep
           INNER JOIN Replenishments on Replenishments.Rep_ID = Req_Rep.Rep_ID
      )

   -- Grab the results
   SELECT DISTINCT * FROM Rep

Using that query, I get this dataset:

REP_ID  THE_NUMBER
7123    O103654787
7125    O103215320
7124    O103214217
7126    O106212219

Which shows me that for a specific requirement (specified by its Order_No), these are the replenishments that satisfy it. Then, for those replenishments, this is the metadata that is associated with them.

I now need to take The_Number and essentially repeat the entire process. And for each replenishment that is an production or planned order, continue to find all of the replenishments (since, if a replenishment is a production or planned order, it may have additional replenishments)

The goal dataset would look like this:

|    Number   | Req_ID | Req_No | Rep_ID |    Details   | Level |
|:-----------:|:------:|:------:|:------:|:------------:|:-----:|
|  O103962037 |   BDD  |   377  |  7123  |  O103654787  |   1   |
|  O103962037 |   BDD  |   377  |  7124  |  O103214217  |   1   |
|  O103962037 |   BDD  |   377  |  7125  |  O103215320  |   1   |
|  O103962037 |   BDD  |   377  |  7126  |  O106212219  |   1   |
|  O103654787 |   QZX  |   96   |  5748  |  PL272634123 |   2   |
|  O103214217 |   NFD  |   20   |  7055  |  PL983002032 |   2   |
|  O103215320 |   GBV  |   33   |  9999  | PO9000124806 |   2   |
|  O106212219 |   ERQ  |   22   |  7736  | PO9000124799 |   2   |
| PL272634123 |   MRP  |   99   |  1111  | PO9000124806 |   3   |
| PL983002032 |   EWE  |   22   |  1111  | PO9000124806 |   3   |

I believe I have already achieved the recursive anchor in my query, but I cannot determine how to build the rest. Any advice is appreciated.

I have reviewed these posts:

I think the line I need is Rep.The_Number = Requirements.Order_No, but I don't know how to define that.

  • Is there a reason that 7125 Rep_ID has a duplicate in the Replenishments table or is that an error? Commented Jul 15, 2019 at 21:28

I figured a solution that I hope will help at least as a starting point for your more complex version, assuming I understood the data model correctly. SQLFiddle is here. I had to modify the sample data as I could not replicate your expected results based on the provided sample.

The SQL I came up with is this:

WITH t as (
SELECT coalesce(r.planned_no, r.Order_No) order_no,
       r.Req_ID,
       r.Req_No,
       rr.REP_ID,
       coalesce(rp.purchase_no, rp.planned_no, rp.order_no) details,
       0 replevel
  FROM requirements r
  JOIN ReqRep rr ON rr.Req_ID = r.Req_ID AND rr.Req_No = r.Req_No
  JOIN Replenishments rp on rp.Rep_ID = rr.Rep_ID),
det_t  (order_no, req_id, req_no, rep_id, details, replevel, rep_path) as (
SELECT t.Order_No,
       t.Req_ID,
       t.Req_No,
       t.REP_ID,
       t.details,
       1 replevel,
       t.order_no rep_path
  FROM t
 WHERE Order_No LIKE '%O103962037%'
 UNION ALL
 SELECT t.Order_No,
       t.Req_ID,
       t.Req_No,
       t.REP_ID,
       t.details,
       d.replevel + 1,
       rep_path || '=>' || t.order_no rep_path
  FROM det_t d
  JOIN t ON t.order_no = d.details
)
select order_no,
       req_id,
       req_no,
       rep_id,
       details,
       replevel,
       rep_path
  from det_t
 order by replevel, order_no;

Sample execution as follows:

FSITJA@db01 2019-07-16 09:59:00> WITH t as (

  8    FROM requirements r
  9    JOIN ReqRep rr ON rr.Req_ID = r.Req_ID AND rr.Req_No = r.Req_No
 10    JOIN Replenishments rp on rp.Rep_ID = rr.Rep_ID),
 11  det_t  (order_no, req_id, req_no, rep_id, details, replevel, rep_path) as (
 12  SELECT t.Order_No,
 13         t.Req_ID,
 14         t.Req_No,
 15         t.REP_ID,
 16         t.details,
 17         1 replevel,
 18         t.order_no rep_path
 19    FROM t
 20   WHERE Order_No LIKE '%O103962037%'
 21   UNION ALL
 22   SELECT t.Order_No,

 29    FROM det_t d
 30    JOIN t ON t.order_no = d.details

11 rows selected.

I think there is a mismatch between sample data and expected result. On your expected result, unless I am misinterpreting the data model, the level 3 rows (MRP and EWE) REQ_NO do not match what is in the sample data.

MRP has Req_No = 99 in the exptected result and in the insert it has Req_No = 11, connecting it to level 2 under Replenishment level 1 Rep_Id = 7125.

EWE has Req_No = 22 in the expected result and in the insert it has Req_No = 42, and it connects from level 1 under Replenishment Rep_Id = 7055. However in table Requirements EWE has Planned_No = 'PL191908854' while in level 2 Replenishment Rep_Id = 7055 is pointing to Order_No = 'PL983002032'.

If I change the provided sample data on Replinishment Rep_Id = 7055 from Order_No = 'PL983002032' to 'PL191908854' it shows correctly EWE under level 3.

This is what I changed in the Replenishment table insert (it is reflected in the SQLFiddle): Added (just to illustrate a level 3 connection that works):

SELECT '8888', NULL, NULL, 'PL2222222222' FROM DUAL

Modified (to get EWE to show in level 3 correctly):

SELECT '7055', NULL, 'PL191908854', NULL FROM DUAL UNION ALL

this is a good start,thank you. But as you indicated, this does not work with the data I posted, which is the actual data I am working with. Might you be able to elaborate on your answer a bit to give me / other viewers a better idea of what you changed and how it works?
I will edit my answer because there is not enough space to type in the explanation in comments.
I was able to edit this slightly and was able to make it work properly. Thank you.

Here is what I was able to come up with. This comes very close to your expected results for that given order except that you have a duplicate for O103215320 in the Requirements table that may be an error in your data.

I am a little confused about how the tblInputs table fits into this. My query below is not using that table at all.

with orders as (
select nvl(Requirements.order_no,Requirements.Planned_No) order_no,
       Requirements.Req_ID,
       Requirements.Req_No,
       Replenishments.Rep_ID,
       coalesce(Replenishments.Order_No,Replenishments.Planned_No,Replenishments.Purchase_No) Details
from Requirements
join ReqRep
  on ReqRep.Req_ID = Requirements.Req_ID
 and ReqRep.Req_No = Requirements.Req_No
join Replenishments
  on Replenishments.Rep_ID = ReqRep.Rep_ID)

select order_no,
       Req_ID,
       Req_No,
       Rep_ID,
       Details,
       lvl
from (
select orders.*,
       connect_by_root orders.Order_No root_order,
       level lvl
from orders
connect by prior orders.details = orders.order_no)
where root_order like '%O103962037%'
order by lvl,order_no

The above query is giving the following results:

+-------------+--------+--------+--------+--------------+-----+
|  ORDER_NO   | REQ_ID | REQ_NO | REP_ID |   DETAILS    | LVL |
+-------------+--------+--------+--------+--------------+-----+

Patrick, this is great. I unfortunately already tried the other solution before posted, but this is interesting. I will do more reading on connect_by_prior
