Hvordan returnerer man en tabelvariabel fra en funktion (UDF)?

Du bruger ikke DECLARE når du returnerer en tabelvariabel. Definer resultattabellen i RETURNS klausul.

CREATE Function GetFinancials ()
RETURNS @financials TABLE
(
  [a bunch of variable declarations in here]
)
AS
BEGIN
    insert into @Financials
    [big old SELECT query here - this all works fine, and populates @Financials]

    RETURN
END

Hvad med at returnere det endelige resultat i en lagret procedure?

create procedure uspGetFinanicals
as
  declare @financial table
  (
    [table definition here]
  )

  insert into @financial
  select dbo.GetFinancials()

  select * 
    from @Financials f1
    where f1.TransactionDate = (
        select MAX(TransactionDate)
        from @Financials
        where SalesDocumentItemID = f1.SalesDocumentItemID
    )

Prøv dette. Opret en tabelvariabel i UDF'en for at gemme resultaterne af det første valg, og indsæt derefter resultatet af den endelige forespørgsel i returværdien.

CREATE Function GetFinancials ()
RETURNS @financials TABLE
(
  [a bunch of variable declarations in here]
)
AS
BEGIN
    declare @table table([a bunch of variable declarations in here])
    insert into @table
    [big old SELECT query here - this all works fine, and populates @Financials]

    insert into @Financials
    select * 
      from @table f1
      where f1.TransactionDate = (
        select MAX(TransactionDate)
        from @table
        where SalesDocumentItemID = f1.SalesDocumentItemID
      )

    RETURN
END
