1
00:00:00,870 --> 00:00:01,110
All right.
2
00:00:01,110 --> 00:00:07,260
Next up we've got pending queries and you'll find that a pen queries tool right under merge in the Home
3
00:00:07,260 --> 00:00:08,610
tab of the query editor.
4
00:00:08,910 --> 00:00:12,660
When you click that button you'll see a really simple dialog box like this.
5
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:17,250
Or you can choose to append either two tables or three or more.
6
00:00:17,250 --> 00:00:24,210
Now both merging and appending are similar in that they're adding information to an existing table but
7
00:00:24,230 --> 00:00:31,130
they're different in that merging is adding columns and appending is stacking rows.
8
00:00:31,220 --> 00:00:38,900
So basically appending queries allows you to combine or stack two tables assuming they share the exact
9
00:00:38,900 --> 00:00:42,130
same column structure and data types.
10
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:43,480
So keep that in mind.
11
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,190
Same structure same data types.
12
00:00:46,220 --> 00:00:51,710
So in this case that we're looking at here where appending two tables together there two different adventure
13
00:00:51,710 --> 00:01:00,110
work sales tables one from 2015 one from 2016 and it's a valid pen since they both share identical table
14
00:01:00,110 --> 00:01:01,310
structures.
15
00:01:01,310 --> 00:01:08,810
So just like we talked about merging makes tables wider by adding more columns pending makes tables
16
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,520
taller by adding more rows.
17
00:01:11,570 --> 00:01:16,880
Now protip here than I want to share with you which will actually dive into with the demo in the next
18
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:21,470
lecture is to use the folder option from the get Data menu.
19
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:28,170
And what that lets you do is actually Point Power be-I to a folder containing as many files as each
20
00:01:28,170 --> 00:01:34,510
choose which allows you to append all of them at once assuming they share that same structure.
21
00:01:34,610 --> 00:01:41,390
And the beauty of it is that over time if you add new files or remove files simply refreshing that query
22
00:01:41,420 --> 00:01:47,180
that connection will automatically append any new data that's shown up within that folder.
23
00:01:47,180 --> 00:01:51,090
So it's a really powerful option that will dive into in the next video.
24
00:01:51,530 --> 00:01:56,920
But for now let's cover the basic penned option and shift gears and the power be so we can take a look.
25
00:01:58,570 --> 00:02:00,430
OK so I'm here in the query editor.
26
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:07,540
I'm inside of my A.W. sales 20:17 table and because I've got four different tables here each with a
27
00:02:07,540 --> 00:02:09,190
different column structure.
28
00:02:09,370 --> 00:02:13,500
There's nothing that I can really use to append with what I've got on hand.
29
00:02:13,660 --> 00:02:18,560
So I know that I'm going to need to grab some new data can do that right from the editor by clicking
30
00:02:18,570 --> 00:02:25,410
news source text cxxviii and I want to grab my other two adventure work sales files.
31
00:02:25,630 --> 00:02:35,010
So grab 20:16 first see the preview and can press OK to load straight into the editor.
32
00:02:35,220 --> 00:02:37,250
And why don't we update the table name.
33
00:02:37,380 --> 00:02:44,040
While we're thinking of it A.W. sales 2016 and we'll repeat that process.
34
00:02:44,700 --> 00:02:51,900
New Source cxxviii for the 2015 file or so came from the preview
35
00:02:54,690 --> 00:02:56,670
LEIGH SALES 2015.
36
00:02:57,030 --> 00:02:57,440
OK.
37
00:02:57,590 --> 00:03:05,460
So now you've got three separate A.W. sales files all of which are consistent in terms of the columns.
38
00:03:05,510 --> 00:03:12,250
There's 2015 2016 with one exception in 2017.
39
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:19,380
Which is that new quantity type column that we added in when we practice that conditional column tool.
40
00:03:19,430 --> 00:03:24,180
So one option would be to go ahead and continue to append these together.
41
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:30,200
You'll see some null values for the quantity types in the other two tables and you could pretty easily
42
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,150
redefine that conditional column to the full appended version.
43
00:03:34,190 --> 00:03:37,380
In this case we're not going to be using this column for anything.
44
00:03:37,430 --> 00:03:39,360
So let's go ahead and just remove it.
45
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:41,440
There we go.
46
00:03:41,690 --> 00:03:47,130
And now we've got a perfectly consistent table structure across all three.
47
00:03:47,140 --> 00:03:53,660
So now with one of them selected doesn't matter which one you start with 20:17 in my home tab.
48
00:03:53,890 --> 00:03:59,020
Let's go to append queries and this time instead of the first option.
49
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:04,600
Got that same choice that we had with merge where you can either append within the existing table or
50
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,170
as a brand new table.
51
00:04:06,370 --> 00:04:09,280
This time let's try the new table.
52
00:04:09,310 --> 00:04:13,670
So when I click that button this time we have more than two tables to pen.
53
00:04:13,660 --> 00:04:19,260
We have three or more and it's automatically populated the first one that I've selected.
54
00:04:19,270 --> 00:04:25,420
So the only other two that I need are sales 2016 and sales 2015.
55
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,790
So we can go ahead and press OK.
56
00:04:28,270 --> 00:04:30,160
And it creates a new table.
57
00:04:30,220 --> 00:04:30,920
It names it.
58
00:04:30,930 --> 00:04:33,150
Append one by default.
59
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:43,580
Let's go ahead and change that to something like A.W. underscore sales underscore 2015 through 2017.
60
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,780
Just to be clear.
61
00:04:45,930 --> 00:04:53,230
And now it can look through column structures look exactly as we'd expect same column structure as each
62
00:04:53,230 --> 00:04:54,410
component table.
63
00:04:54,730 --> 00:05:01,270
And now when we sort these order dates let's sort them ascending and we see that the table now starts
64
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,270
on January 1st 2015.
65
00:05:04,270 --> 00:05:12,810
And if we expand and load more see the full list you can actually scroll all the way down and see that
66
00:05:12,810 --> 00:05:16,460
it takes us all the way to the end of June 2017.
67
00:05:17,280 --> 00:05:19,010
With 2016 dates in between.
68
00:05:19,010 --> 00:05:23,220
So you've got dates from all three of those sales tables.
69
00:05:23,220 --> 00:05:23,940
So that's great.
70
00:05:23,970 --> 00:05:31,710
We've successfully appended the sales data from our three individual tables into one dependent version.
71
00:05:31,980 --> 00:05:37,800
But one downside of this approach is that now that I've got the table that I want with all the data
72
00:05:37,830 --> 00:05:43,200
in one place let's say I want to get rid of these older individual tables just because they're taking
73
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:48,620
up space by right click and try to delete the 20:15 query.
74
00:05:48,630 --> 00:05:56,250
It won't let me because it's being referenced by another query that appended 25 through 2017 table that
75
00:05:56,250 --> 00:05:57,510
we just created.
76
00:05:57,510 --> 00:06:04,920
So the problem here is that our new table or 2015 through 2017 table is dependent on the other three.
77
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,820
So we have to kind of keep all four of them here which is OK.
78
00:06:08,910 --> 00:06:13,030
There's nothing wrong with that it's not going to create any big problems.
79
00:06:13,140 --> 00:06:15,330
It just feels a little bit messy.
80
00:06:15,330 --> 00:06:22,560
So one way around that which I very much recommend is to move these files into a folder and then connect
81
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,030
to the folder itself.
82
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:29,140
So stay tuned because in the next video I'm going to show you exactly how to do that.
