Table

This option appears once you have selected a profile and Standard Search Type. This is a dropdown list of tables configured in the selected Reference Data profile. Select a table from the list to perform your query.

Main Table

This option appears once you have selected a profile and Join Table Search Type. This is a dropdown list of tables configured in the selected Reference Data profile. Select a table from the list to perform your query. The alias of the selected main table will always be t1 and will be used for Join Constraint.

Join Conditions

This option appears once you have selected a profile and Join Table Search Type. Add join conditions to combine two or more tables by selecting Table Name, Join Type and configure Join Constraints. The alias of the selected table will be stated next to the Table Name label, for e.g: The screenshot below indicates that t2 will be the alias of the table.

The following join types are supported:

• JOIN

Open

Reference Data Management - Join Condition Dialog

Join Constraint is used to specify the conditions for joining tables, for e.g: t1.column_id=t2.column_id.

Show Columns

This option appears once you have selected a profile and a table. This displays all the column names available in the selected table. You can add or remove columns to customize which ones are displayed in the query results. Clicking the All button will select all columns in the table.

By default, all columns are selected.

Data Set Size

This option appears once you have selected a profile and a table. It controls the maximum number of rows per data set. The queried data is fetched from the Platform in data sets of this configurable size. A larger size generally speeds up the query process but may delay the display of the first data set.

Query Expressions

This option appears once you have selected a profile and a table. Query Expressions allow you to filter the query results according to the criteria you configure in this option. Click on New Expression to add one to the query.

Sort Expression

This option appears once you have selected a profile and a table, defaulted to first column in ascending direction. Sort Expressions allow you to sort the query results according to the criteria you configure in this option. Click on New Sort Expression to add additional expression.

Column

This is a column in the selected database table.

Operator

This is a comparison operator that is applied to the values in the specified column and the value.

The available operators are:

• equals

• not equals

• like

• not like

• greater than

• greater than or equals

• lesser than

• lesser than or equals

• between

Value

This field contains a value that is used in the expression. When between is the selected operator, two value fields are displayed.

You can use SQL wildcards such % and _ with the operators like and not like.

An underscore (_) in the pattern matches exactly one character (as opposed to one byte in a multibyte character set) in the value.

A percent sign (%) in the pattern can match zero or more characters (as opposed to bytes in a multibyte character set) in the value. The pattern '%' cannot match a null.

Column

This is a column in the selected database table which data needs to be sorted.

Direction

You can select to view the query results in the following manner:

• Ascending - Query result is sorted from lowest to highest value

• Descending - Query result is sorted from highest to lowest value
