Hello again,
I am having a duplication of results problem. I believe my
query (below) is giving me exactly what I deserve in writing it.
What it returns to me is a row for each status. What I would most want
would be a single row with the oldest status - IE the status datetime
that happened earliest.
What I am trying to do is determine when a service desk ticket first
enters any one of these three categories. I am not using distinct on
`thedata2`.`Source` as this does not effect the result set.
I have 2 tables.
One of the tables lists all the ticket information at time of the ticket
being closed. The other has an entry referenced by ticket number for
each time a ticket is touched or updated. So what I am trying to do is
identify the last time it was touched with the appropriate status
change.
Does anyone have any idea what I could do to eliminate the duplicate
with the oldest time? I am experimenting in the idea of a subquery but
can't think of anything else.
???
Thanks,
craig
