How can I combine two tables with different data and set value for CompanyC
to all data in Table 2 even there is no relationship of CompanyC
on Table2.
x
Table 1: Table 2:
company jobs company jobs emp_name
----------------------------------- ---------------------------------
CompanyA IT CompanyA IT John
CompanyB Business CompanyB Business Mike
CompanyC Engineer
And the Result Table would be like:
company jobs emp_name
------------------------------------------
CompanyA IT John
CompanyC Engineer John
CompanyB Business Mike
CompanyC Engineer Mike
I already tried this and it is working but the problem is since CompanyC has no data on Table 2. The result will be null.
select coalesce(t1.company, t2.company)
t1.jobs, t2.emp_name
from table1 t1 full outer join
table2 t2
on t2.name = t1.name;

Answer
You can do an INNER
join of the tables and use NOT EXISTS
in the ON
clause like this:
SELECT t1.company, t1.jobs, t2.emp_name
FROM Table1 t1 INNER JOIN Table2 t2
ON t2.company = t1.company
OR NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM Table2 WHERE company = t1.company)
See the demo.
Results:
> company | jobs | emp_name
> :------- | :------- | :-------
> CompanyA | IT | John
> CompanyC | Engineer | John
> CompanyB | Business | Mike
> CompanyC | Engineer | Mike
