Sample Solution:
-- Selecting columns salesorderid, orderdate, and creditcardapprovalcode from the sales.salesorderheader table
SELECT salesorderid, orderdate, creditcardapprovalcode
-- From the sales.salesorderheader table
FROM sales.salesorderheader
-- Filtering records where creditcardapprovalcode starts with '1' followed by any character and then '6'
WHERE creditcardapprovalcode LIKE '1_6%'
-- Ordering the result set by orderdate in ascending order
ORDER by orderdate;
Explanation:
- This SQL query retrieves specific columns from the salesorderheader table in the Sales schema.
- Comments are added to explain each part of the query for better understanding and maintenance.
- Here's a breakdown of what the query does:
- It selects the salesorderid, orderdate, and creditcardapprovalcode columns from the salesorderheader table.
- The WHERE clause filters records where the creditcardapprovalcode starts with '1', followed by any single character, and then '6'.
- The % sign in the LIKE operator acts as a wildcard, matching any sequence of characters.
- The ORDER BY clause arranges the result set in ascending order based on the orderdate column.
