What is SCOPE_IDENTITY ? How to use SCOPE_IDENTITY?


What is SCOPE_IDENTITY ? How to use SCOPE_IDENTITY?


Description :


SCOPE_IDENTITY() is defined as return last identity inserted in the identity column. Using this SCOPE_IDENTITY() you can use many inserted statement to insert same auto generated id value many table for as same reference.

In my previous article I have explained how to get inserted id from sql server that time we know how to get through query. In this article I have explained get auto generated ID using SCOPE_IDENTITY() from stored procedure.

Example1

In this example I have get Auto generated ID using SCOPE_IDENTITY() and OUTPUT variable from the stored procedure to display values in label control

Create table like below


create table emp(eno int identity(1,1) NOT NULL,empname varchar(50),sal bigint)

Create stored procedure like below

--Procedure
create  procedure Emp_return
@empname varchar(50),
@sal bigint,
@c1 int output
as
Begin
 insert into emp(empname,sal) values(@empname,@sal)
 set @c1 = SCOPE_IDENTITY() 
return
End

Call from SQL SERVER

declare @t int
exec Emp_return2 @empname='Ravindran',@sal='45000',@c1=@t OUTPUT
select @t

Call from ASP.NET Code behind

            </tr>
        </table>
    </div>
    </form>

Server side

using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Configuration;

public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page 
{
    SqlConnection sqlcon = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["Con"].ToString());
    SqlCommand sqlcmd = new SqlCommand();
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        lblResult.Text = "";
    }
    protected void btnInsert_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        string i;
        sqlcon.Open();
        sqlcmd = new SqlCommand("Emp_return", sqlcon);
        sqlcmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
        sqlcmd.Parameters.Add("@empname", SqlDbType.VarChar,50).Value = TextBox2.Text;
        sqlcmd.Parameters.Add("@sal", SqlDbType.BigInt).Value = Convert.ToInt32(TextBox3.Text);
        sqlcmd.Parameters.Add("@c1", SqlDbType.Int);
        sqlcmd.Parameters["@c1"].Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
        sqlcmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
        i = sqlcmd.Parameters["@c1"].Value.ToString(); //here i is get out parameter return value       
        lblResult.Text= "Last Insert Auto Generated ID is " + i.ToString();
        sqlcon.Close();
        TextBox2.Text = "";
        TextBox3.Text = "";
    }    
}

Output:


Last_Inserted_Id

Example2

In this example I have explained get that auto generated id from stored procedure and insert into another table with same reference number.

Create table like below


create table student(s_id int identity(1,1) NOT NULL, sname varchar(50), sclass varchar(50))

create table fee(s_id int, sname varchar(50), s_fee varchar(50),s_month varchar(50))

Here after insert student detail I inserted that student fee details in another table with that same auto generated student id.

Create Stored Procedure

create procedure Student_Reg
@sname varchar(50),
@sclass varchar(50),
@smonth varchar(50),
@sfee varchar(50)
AS
Begin
declare @IDFee varchar(50)
insert into student(sname,sclass) values(@sname,@sclass)
insert into fee values(SCOPE_IDENTITY(),@sname,@sfee,@smonth)
End

Test in SQL SERVER

--Execute to test
exec Student_Reg @sname='ravindran',@sclass='MCA',@smonth='July',@sfee='25000'


If you execute the above stored procedure from code behind then same auto generated value get from student table and insert into fee table with the same reference number.

Conclusion

I hope this article is help you to know about SCOPE_IDENTITY() use and know about to get last inserted auto generated id.
