Practice 6: Solutions 1. The HR department needs a query that prompts the user for an employee last name.

The query then displays the last name and hire date of any employee in the same department as the employee whose name they supply (excluding that employee). For example, if the user enters Zlotkey, find all employees who work with Zlotkey (excluding Zlotkey).
UNDEFINEEnter_name SELECTlast_name,hire_date FROMemployees WHEREdepartment_id=(SELECTdepartment_id FROMemployees WHERElast_name='&&Enter_name') ANDlast_name<>'&Enter_name';

2. Create a report that displays the employee number, last name, and salary of all employees who earn more than the average salary. Sort the results in order of ascending salary.
SELECTemployee_id,last_name,salary FROMemployees WHEREsalary>(SELECTAVG(salary) FROMemployees) ORDERBYsalary;

3. Write a query that displays the employee number and last name of all employees who work in a department with any employee whose last name contains a u. Place your SQL statement in a text file named lab_06_03.sql. Run your query.
SELECTemployee_id,last_name FROMemployees WHEREdepartment_idIN(SELECTdepartment_id FROMemployees WHERElast_namelike'%u%');

4. The HR department needs a report that displays the last name, department number, and job ID of all employees whose department location ID is 1700.
SELECTlast_name,department_id,job_id FROMemployees WHEREdepartment_idIN(SELECTdepartment_id FROMdepartments WHERElocation_id=1700);

Modify the query so that the user is prompted for a location ID. Save this to a file named lab_06_04.sql.
SELECTlast_name,department_id,job_id FROMemployees WHEREdepartment_idIN(SELECTdepartment_id FROMdepartments WHERElocation_id=&Enter_location); Oracle Database 10g: SQL Fundamentals I A - 17

Practice 6: Solutions (continued) 5. Create a report for HR that displays the last name and salary of every employee who reports to King.
SELECTlast_name,salary FROMemployees WHEREmanager_id=(SELECTemployee_id FROMemployees WHERElast_name='King');

6. Create a report for HR that displays the department number, last name, and job ID for every employee in the Executive department.
SELECTdepartment_id,last_name,job_id FROMemployees WHEREdepartment_idIN(SELECTdepartment_id FROMdepartments WHEREdepartment_name='Executive');

If you have time, complete the following exercise: 7. Modify the query in lab_06_03.sql to display the employee number, last name, and salary of all employees who earn more than the average salary and who work in a department with any employee whose last name contains a u. Resave lab_06_03.sql to lab_06_07.sql. Run the statement in lab_06_07.sql.
SELECTemployee_id,last_name,salary FROMemployees WHEREdepartment_idIN(SELECTdepartment_id FROMemployees WHERElast_namelike'%u%') ANDsalary>(SELECTAVG(salary) FROMemployees);
