Two Table Join with Sub-query?

So I am working on an exercise to improve my SQL skills and I need to modify my query to add a subquery that looks for the existence of a customer ID in the CUSTOMERS table. The exercise also notes that this is a correlated sub-query so you will have to match the customer ID from the sub-query to the customer ID in the outer query. The title of the section of this exercise is "Two Table Join with Subquery". After researching and trying for a few hours now, I've exhausted all my resources but one. Any help would be much appreciated! (I am using Oracle Apex for this.)



SELECT ORDER_ID, ORDER_MODE, CUSTOMER_ID, PRODUCT_ID
FROM ORDERS
NATURAL JOIN ORDER_ITEMS;


Customers Table



ORDER_ITEMS Table



ORDERS Table



PRODUCT_DESCRIPTIONS Table

  • That worked great! Just one last thing I hope you could help me with! The exercise now wants me to modify the previous SQL query to add the translated name column from the PRODUCT_DESCRIPTIONS table. I've added that table data to the post, thanks!

  • Since you are learning I would like to help you rather giving the answer, so now you have product_id in one of the tables join that id to products and in the select statement select the translation name

Using exists you can check for existence,



SELECT O.ORDER_ID, O.ORDER_MODE, O.CUSTOMER_ID, OI.PRODUCT_ID
FROM ORDERS O
INNER JOIN ORDER_ITEMS OI on O.ORDER_ID=OI.ORDER_ID
WHERE EXISTS(
SELECT * FROM CUSTOMERS C
WHERE O.CUSTOMER_ID=C.CUSTOMER_ID
);


This would do the second,



SELECT O.ORDER_ID, O.ORDER_MODE, O.CUSTOMER_ID, OI.PRODUCT_ID,P.TRANSLATED_NAME
FROM ORDERS O
INNER JOIN ORDER_ITEMS OI on O.ORDER_ID=OI.ORDER_ID
INNER JOIN PRODUCT_DESCRIPTIONS P on P.PRODUCT_ID=OI.PRODUCT_ID
WHERE EXISTS(
SELECT * FROM CUSTOMERS C
WHERE O.CUSTOMER_ID=C.CUSTOMER_ID
);
