Question about DATA CATALOG PATSTAT
Posted: Tue Jun 09, 2015 7:14 pm
Hi,
I have some questions about the description of DATA CATALOG PATSTAT manual.
First of all,
I feel confused about "pat_publn_id" and "publn_id". Because I did not find any column called "publn_id", I only found "pat_publn_id" in tls211_pat_publn table.
Is column "publn_id" equal to column "pat_publn_id" ?
Besides, I have a question about an example demonstrated in page 25 (DATA CATALOG PATSTAT manual 2015 Spring Edition Version 5.03).
Here is the example: the PUBLN_ID 20194422 identified the application FR833507D with kind code A. Using business identifiers, you will need 3 attributes to uniquely identify this application: PUBLN_AUTH = FR, PUBLN_NR=833507D and APPLN_KIND=A.
I tried to find pat_publn_id =20194422(select * from tls211_pat_publn WHERE pat_publn_id='20194422') , and I found nothing.
However, I used the following SQL, and I found that number 20194422 is actually the appln_id.
SELECT * from tls211_pat_publn t1
inner join tls201_appln t2 on t1.appln_id=t2.appln_id
where t1.publn_auth = 'FR' and t1.publn_nr='833507' and t2.appln_kind='A'
The data I found from the example should be APPLN_ID=20194422, APPLN_AUTH = FR, APPLN_NR=833507D, and APPLN_KIND=A.
Why PATSTAT manual uses Publn_id to describe appln_id?
Is the example mis-written ?
Or it has other reasons?
Thank you!!!!
Best regards,
Renee
