What is equivalent of oracle (+)= in Teradata

[sajisher]

Hi all,

There is the following query in Oracle fetching 11 rows. In Teradata this sql gives error with the message ' SELECT Failed: 3706: Syntax error: expected something between '+' and ')'.

How this query could be translated into Teradata syntax please. In Oracle (+)= is used for kind of outer join. I searched and tried some but not successful. Will appreciate your help.

SELECT DISTINCT C.CLASS2ID , C.DESCRIPTION
FROM CLASS2 C, PRODUCT P, PRODUCT_LOCATION PDL
WHERE
P.CLASS1ID = C.CLASS1ID
AND C.CLASS1ID = '00009'
AND PDL.LOCATIONTYPE (+) = 'S00002'

AND PDL.LOCATIONID (+) = 'S00002'
AND PDL.PRODUCTNUMBER (+) = P.PRODUCTNUMBER
AND NVL(PDL.STATUS(+), P.STATUS) = 2
ORDER BY C.Description

thanks
saj

I am not real clear on what you are trying to do and since I am not an Oracle user I cannot fully decipher what your original code is attemping, generally speaking a verbal description would have been easy to work with. That being said hopefully what I provided below will at least give you the framework to finish this off yourself.

SELECT
DISTINCT C.CLASS2ID
, C.DESCRIPTION
FROM
CLASS2 C
Inner Join
PRODUCT P
On
P.CLASS1ID = C.CLASS1ID
Left Outer Join
(Select
*
From
PRODUCT_LOCATION
Where
LOCATIONTYPE = 'S00002'
AND
LOCATIONID = 'S00002'
) PDL
On
PDL.PRODUCTNUMBER = P.PRODUCTNUMBER
AND
COALESCE(PDL.STATUS, P.STATUS) = 2
WHERE
C.CLASS1ID = '00009'
AND
ORDER BY
C.Description

Best of luck.
