Loading in certain records depending on value

I have a database file that contains

AssetID    Sequence    BookID

I am currently picking up the row if the BookID is 1. 

However there are some records that will have the same AssetID and BookID is 1 but the sequence would be different.

I need the row to be picked up if the Sequence is 0 and BookID is 1 but if there is a sequence 1, 2, etc then I need to pick these rows up instead of the record with the sequence 0.

Here's what the data would look like coming in:

AssetIDSequenceBookIDPlaceServAcqValue
54560000:00.0188945.46
54561000:00.0178453
54562000:00.010492.46
54560100:00.0188945.46
54561100:00.0178453
54562100:00.010492.46

So in this case I would need the last two rows loaded and not the third one.

How could I go about doing this at time of load?????

Will book ID always be 1 or 0?

It could be 1 - 6 but I only need to pull bookID = 1

It needs to pull the bookid = 1

If there is just a record with 0 sequence, I need to pull that row for that assetid

but if there is a sequence 1 or 2 with bookid = 1 then I need to pull those rows and not pull the one with 0 sequence

Sorry only just had a chance to look at this.

I created a field in the script against AssetID/BookID as an indicator weather that asset ID has a Bookid = 1 and if so if there sequences present greater than 1. I then use an If in the chart expression to only show the row with the logic you described.

Carly,

This is what I have but I'm still getting an error when trying to load:

book_parts:

left join(assets)

LOAD CompanyID,

    AssetID,

    Sequence,

    BookID,

    PlaceServ,

    AcqValue,

    EstimatedLife,

    CurrentPrLifeDate as BegYrDepr,

    CurrentYearToDate as CurYrDepr,

    CurrentLifeToDate as LifeDepr,

    CurrentNetValue,

    CurrentCostBasis,

    CurrentDeprFlags;

SQL SELECT CompanyID,

    AssetID,

    Sequence,

    BookID,

    PlaceServ,

    AcqValue,

    EstimatedLife,

    CurrentPrLifeDate,

    CurrentYearToDate,

    CurrentLifeToDate,

    CurrentNetValue,

    CurrentCostBasis,

    CurrentDeprFlags

FROM "Sage_FAS".dbo.BookParts

where BookID=1;

Left Join(book_parts)

LOAD CompanyID,

     AssetID,

     Sequence,

     BookID,

     IF( BookID = 1 AND MAX(Sequence)= 0, '0',

      IF( BookID = 1 AND MAX(Sequence)> 0 , '>0', null()))as SeqRange

Resident book_parts

group by CompanyID, AssetID, BookID;

Not sure why I'm having a problem here.  Can you help with this????

I get a table not found error

remove sequence from the resident load or include it in the group by.
