Hi all,
Below is a proc sql Oracle query I’ve written which pulls various promotion history based on elements in a string var. I would like very much to use regular expressions as opposed to a bunch of LIKE functions. I’m having trouble figuring out how to do this in the Oracle environment. The section of the query I would like to modify using regular expressions is this:
and t1.segment_key not like '%N'
and t1.segment_key not like '%C'
and t1.segment_key not like 'CNM'
and (t2.client_promo_id like 'PD%'
or t2.client_promo_id like 'FD%'
or t2.client_promo_id like 'RD%'
or t2.client_promo_id like 'PE%'
or t2.client_promo_id like 'FE%'
or t2.client_promo_id like 'RE%'
or t2.client_promo_id like 'RLS%'
or t2.promotion_title like '%RL%')
and t2.promotion_title not like '%RGB%'
and t2.promotion_title not like '%Rugby%'
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Full query:
proc sql; connect to oracle (user=xxx path='xxx'); create table Want as select * from connection to oracle ( select t1.customer_id, count(distinct case when t1.promotion_type=1 then t1.promotion_id end) as dm_ttl, count(distinct case when t1.promotion_type=2 then t1.promotion_id end) as email_ttl from sas_promo_history_vw t1 join sas_promotion_vw t2 on t1.promotion_id=t2.promotion_id where t1.promotion_type in (1,2) and t2.in_home_date between &start_date. and &End_date. and t1.segment_key not like '%N' and t1.segment_key not like '%C' and t1.segment_key not like 'CNM' and (t2.client_promo_id like 'PD%' or t2.client_promo_id like 'FD%' or t2.client_promo_id like 'RD%' or t2.client_promo_id like 'PE%' or t2.client_promo_id like 'FE%' or t2.client_promo_id like 'RE%' or t2.client_promo_id like 'RLS%' or t2.promotion_title like '%RL%') and t2.promotion_title not like '%RGB%' and t2.promotion_title not like '%Rugby%' group by t1.customer_id); disconnect from oracle;quit;
