Hi all

Learning from one of the replies from Set on my other thread I tried to replace my SP with an improved one.  One that would return two results (date range) in one row instead of two calls to the older SP.

I can't use CTEs in the Remote Views where the final query is used, so that is the reason why I could not use the original suggestion by Set.

So with the new stats but a faster query, it that okay?  Or should I stick with the older SPs which were tad slower but better stats.  Do I need indexes with the new SP?

Please advise

Thanks and regards

Older query:

SELECT ...
    FROM tSupport
        JOINs...
    WHERE CAST(tSupport.tDt AS DATE) BETWEEN (SELECT US1.dValue
    FROM dSetValue('Current Year', 'From') US1)
        AND (SELECT US2.dValue
    FROM dSetValue('Current Year', 'To') US2)
    ORDER BY...

has this stats:
PLAN JOIN (US1 NATURAL, US2 INDEX (PK_USETTINGS_IID))
PLAN JOIN (US1 NATURAL, US2 INDEX (PK_USETTINGS_IID))
PLAN JOIN (JOIN (JOIN (JOIN (JOIN (JOIN (SORT (JOIN (TSUPPORT NATURAL, CLIENT INDEX (PK_MACCOUNTS_IID))), CLIENTCITY INDEX (PK_MLOOKUPS_IID)), MSRNOS INDEX (PK_MSRNOS_IID)), SOFTWARE INDEX (PK_MITEMS_IID)), SOFTWAREHSCODE INDEX (PK_MLOOKUPS_IID)), SR INDEX (PK_MACCOUNTS_IID)), SRCITY INDEX (PK_MLOOKUPS_IID))

New query:

SELECT ...
    FROM tSupport
        JOINs...
        JOIN (SELECT dFromDt, dToDt
                    FROM dSetRange('Current Year', 'From', 'To')) dSR 
                        ON tSupport.tDT BETWEEN dSR.dFromDt AND dSR.dToDt
    ORDER BY ...

now has this stats:
PLAN SORT (JOIN (JOIN (JOIN (JOIN (JOIN (JOIN (JOIN (JOIN (TSUPPORT NATURAL, CLIENT INDEX (PK_MACCOUNTS_IID)), CLIENTCITY INDEX (PK_MLOOKUPS_IID)), MSRNOS INDEX (PK_MSRNOS_IID)), SOFTWARE INDEX (PK_MITEMS_IID)), SOFTWAREHSCODE INDEX (PK_MLOOKUPS_IID)), SR INDEX (PK_MACCOUNTS_IID)), SRCITY INDEX (PK_MLOOKUPS_IID)), SORT (JOIN (US1 NATURAL, US2 INDEX (PK_USETTINGS_IID)))))
