I managed to solve it using Windows Function:
WITH ranked_relationship AS(
SELECT
*
,row_number() OVER (PARTITION BY fk_company ORDER BY dt_start DESC) as dt_last_addr
FROM relationship
)
SELECT
company.*
address.*,
dt_last_addr as dt_relationship
FROM
company
LEFT JOIN ranked_relationship as relationship
ON relationship.fk_company = company.pk_company AND dt_last_addr = 1
LEFT JOIN address ON address.pk_address = relationship.fk_address
row_number() creates an int counter for each record, inside each window based to fk_company. For each window, the record with latest date comes first with rank 1, then dt_last_addr = 1
makes sure the JOIN happens only once for each fk_company
, with the record with latest address.
Window Functions are very powerful and few ppl use them, they avoid many complex joins and subqueries!
