        Read the original article
        Hit count: 155
        
Problem
There are data gaps that need to be filled, possibly using PARTITION BY.
Query Statement
The select statement reads as follows:
SELECT
  count( r.incident_id ) AS incident_tally,
  r.severity_cd,
  r.incident_typ_cd
FROM
  report_vw r
GROUP BY
  r.severity_cd, r.incident_typ_cd
ORDER BY
  r.severity_cd,
  r.incident_typ_cd
Code Tables
The severity codes and incident type codes are from:
- severity_vw
- incident_type_vw
Actual Result Data
36  0   ENVIRONMENT
1   1   DISASTER
27  1   ENVIRONMENT
4   2   SAFETY
1   3   SAFETY
Required Result Data
36  0   ENVIRONMENT
0   0   DISASTER
0   0   SAFETY
27  1   ENVIRONMENT
0   1   DISASTER
0   1   SAFETY
0   2   ENVIRONMENT
0   2   DISASTER
4   2   SAFETY
0   3   ENVIRONMENT
0   3   DISASTER
1   3   SAFETY
Any ideas how to use PARTITION BY (or JOINs) to fill in the zero counts?
