You have a disk-based table that contains 15 columns.
You query the table for the number of new rows created during the current day.
You need to create an index for the query. The solution must generate the smallest possible index.
Which type of index should you create?

• A.nonclustered with compression enabled
• B.filtered nonclustered with a getdate() predicate in the WHERE statement clause
• C.hash
• D.clustered

You are developing a training management application. You run the following Transact-SQL statement:

You must create a report that returns course identifiers and the average evaluation score for each course. The result set must include only one score for each employee for each course.
How should you complete the Transact-SQL statement? To answer, select the appropriate Transact-SQL segments in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Correct Answer:

You need to create a stored procedure to update a table named Sales.Customers. The structure of the table is shown in the exhibit. (Click the exhibit button.)

The stored procedure must meet the following requirements:
- Accept two input parameters.
- Update the company name if the customer exists.
- Return a custom error message if the customer does not exist.
Which five Transact-SQL segments should you use to develop the solution? To answer, move the appropriate Transact-SQL segments from the list of Transact-SQL segments to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.
NOTE: More than one order of answer choices is correct. You will receive credit for any of the correct orders you select.

Correct Answer:

You have a database named DB1 that contains a temporal table named Sales.Customers.
You need to create a query that returns the credit limit that was available to each customer in DB1 at the beginning of 2017.
Which query should you execute?

• A.Option B
• B.Option C
• C.Option D
• D.Option A

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that use the same scenario. For your convenience, the scenario is repeated in each question. Each question presents a different goal and answer choices, but the text of the scenario is exactly the same in each question in this series.
Start of repeated scenario
You have a database that contains the tables shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)

You review the Employee table and make the following observations:
- Every record has a value in the ManagerID except for the Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
- The FirstName and MiddleName columns contain null values for some records.
- The valid values for the Title column are Sales Representative manager, and CEO.
You review the SalesSummary table and make the following observations:
- The ProductCode column contains two parts: The first five digits represent a product code, and the last seven digits represent the unit price. The unit price uses the following pattern: ####.##.
- You observe that for many records, the unit price portion of the ProductCode column contains values.
- The RegionCode column contains NULL for some records.
- Sales data is only recorded for sales representatives.
You are developing a series of reports and procedures to support the business. Details for each report or procedure follow.
Sales Summary report: This report aggregates data by year and quarter. The report must resemble the following table.

Sales Manager report: This report lists each sales manager and the total sales amount for all employees that report to the sales manager.
Sales by Region report: This report lists the total sales amount by employee and by region. The report must include the following columns: EmployeeCode, MiddleName, LastName, RegionCode, and SalesAmount. If MiddleName is NULL, FirstName must be displayed. If both FirstName and MiddleName have null values, the world Unknown must be displayed/ If RegionCode is NULL, the word Unknown must be displayed.
Report1: This report joins data from SalesSummary with the Employee table and other tables. You plan to create an object to support Report1. The object has the following requirements:
- be joinable with the SELECT statement that supplies data for the report
- can be used multiple times with the SELECT statement for the report
- be usable only with the SELECT statement for the report
- not be saved as a permanent object
Report2: This report joins data from SalesSummary with the Employee table and other tables.
You plan to create an object to support Report1. The object has the following requirements:
Sales Hierarchy report. This report aggregates rows, creates subtotal rows, and super-aggregates rows over the SalesAmount column in a single result-set. The report uses SaleYear, SaleQuarter, and SaleMonth as a hierarchy. The result set must not contain a grand total or cross-tabulation aggregate rows.
Current Price Stored Procedure: This stored procedure must return the unit price for a product when a product code is supplied. The unit price must include a dollar sign at the beginning. In addition, the unit price must contain a comma every three digits to the left of the decimal point, and must display two digits to the left of the decimal point. The stored procedure must not throw errors, even if the product code contains invalid data.
End of Repeated Scenario
You are creating the queries for Report1 and Report2.
You need to create the objects necessary to support the queries.
Which object should you use to join the SalesSummary table with the other tables that each report uses? To answer, drag the appropriate objects to the correct reports. each object may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.

Correct Answer:

Explanation

Box 1: common table expression (CTE)
A common table expression (CTE) can be thought of as a temporary result set that is defined within the execution scope of a single SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, or CREATE VIEW statement. A CTE is similar to a derived table in that it is not stored as an object and lasts only for the duration of the query. Unlike a derived table, a CTE can be self-referencing and can be referenced multiple times in the same query.
A CTE can be used to:
From Scenario: Report1: This report joins data from SalesSummary with the Employee table and other tables.
You plan to create an object to support Report1. The object has the following requirements:
Box 2: view
From scenario: Report2: This report joins data from SalesSummary with the Employee table and other tables.
You plan to create an object to support Report1. The object has the following requirements:
