I have three tables: customers, salesorders and invoices. Customers have
salesorders and salesorders have invoices ( child tables have foreign
key columns to their parent).
I want to get a list of all invoices with their customers. This what I
came up with:
select
invoices.objectid,
invoices.invoicenumber,
invoices.invoicedate,
(select customer from salesorders where objectid = invoices.salesorderobjectid),
(select customernumber from customers where objectid = (select customer from salesorders where objectid =
invoices.salesorderobjectid)),
(select lastname from customers where objectid = (select customer from salesorders where objectid =
invoices.salesorderobjectid))
from invoices
Can I do this smarter as the three subselects select the same customer three times and I would think that 1 time is
enough?
TIA
