consulta sql para devolver diferencias entre dos tablas

Estoy tratando de comparar dos tablas, SQL Server, para verificar algunos datos. Quiero devolver todas las filas de ambas tablas donde los datos están en una u otra. En esencia, quiero mostrar todas las discrepancias. Necesito verificar tres datos al hacerlo, Nombre, Apellido y Producto.

Soy bastante nuevo en SQL y parece que muchas de las soluciones que estoy encontrando están complicando las cosas. No tengo que preocuparme por los NULL.

Empecé intentando algo como esto:

SELECT DISTINCT [First Name], [Last Name], [Product Name] FROM [Temp Test Data]
WHERE ([First Name] NOT IN (SELECT [First Name] 
FROM [Real Data]))

Aunque tengo problemas para llevar esto más lejos.

¡Gracias!

EDITAR:

Según la respuesta de @treaschf, he estado tratando de usar una variación de la siguiente consulta:

SELECT td.[First Name], td.[Last Name], td.[Product Name]
FROM [Temp Test Data] td FULL OUTER JOIN [Data] AS d 
ON td.[First Name] = d.[First Name] AND td.[Last Name] = d.[Last Name] 
WHERE (d.[First Name] = NULL) AND (d.[Last Name] = NULL)

Pero sigo obteniendo 0 resultados cuando sé que hay al menos 1 fila en td que no está en d.

EDITAR:

Ok, creo que lo descubrí. Al menos en mis pocos minutos de prueba parece funcionar lo suficientemente bien.

SELECT [First Name], [Last Name]
FROM [Temp Test Data] AS td
WHERE (NOT EXISTS
        (SELECT [First Name], [Last Name]
         FROM [Data] AS d
         WHERE ([First Name] = td.[First Name]) OR ([Last Name] = td.[Last Name])))

Básicamente, esto me dirá qué hay en mis datos de prueba que no están en mis datos reales. Lo cual está completamente bien para lo que necesito hacer.

SI tiene tablas Ay B, ambas con columnas C, aquí están los registros, que están presentes en la tabla Apero no en B:

SELECT A.*
FROM A
    LEFT JOIN B ON (A.C = B.C)
WHERE B.C IS NULL

Para obtener todas las diferencias con una sola consulta, se debe utilizar una combinación completa, como esta:

SELECT A.*, B.*
FROM A
    FULL JOIN B ON (A.C = B.C)
WHERE A.C IS NULL OR B.C IS NULL

Lo que necesita saber en este caso es que, cuando se puede encontrar un registro en A, pero no en B, que las columnas que provienen Bserán NULL, y de manera similar para las que están presentes en By no en A, las columnas de Awill ser nulo

(   SELECT * FROM table1
    EXCEPT
    SELECT * FROM table2)  
UNION ALL
(   SELECT * FROM table2
    EXCEPT
    SELECT * FROM table1) 

Sé que esta puede no ser una respuesta popular, pero estoy de acuerdo con @Randy Minder en el uso de herramientas de terceros cuando se necesita una comparación más compleja.

Este caso específico aquí es fácil y para este caso estas herramientas no son necesarias, pero esto puede complicarse fácilmente si introduce más columnas, bases de datos en dos servidores, criterios de comparación más complejos y demás.

Existen muchas de estas herramientas, como ApexSQL Data Diff o Quest Toad, y siempre puede usarlas en modo de prueba para hacer el trabajo.

Para obtener todas las diferencias entre dos tablas, puede usar como yo esta solicitud SQL:

SELECT 'TABLE1-ONLY' AS SRC, T1.*
FROM (
      SELECT * FROM Table1
      EXCEPT
      SELECT * FROM Table2
      ) AS T1
UNION ALL
SELECT 'TABLE2-ONLY' AS SRC, T2.*
FROM (
      SELECT * FROM Table2
      EXCEPT
      SELECT * FROM Table1
      ) AS T2
;

Variación simple en la respuesta @erikkallen que muestra en qué tabla está presente la fila:

(   SELECT 'table1' as source, * FROM table1
    EXCEPT
    SELECT * FROM table2)  
UNION ALL
(   SELECT 'table2' as source, * FROM table2
    EXCEPT
    SELECT * FROM table1) 

Si recibes un error

Todas las consultas combinadas con un operador UNION, INTERSECT o EXCEPT deben tener el mismo número de expresiones en sus listas de destino.

entonces puede ayudar agregar

(   SELECT 'table1' as source, * FROM table1
    EXCEPT
    SELECT 'table1' as source, * FROM table2)  
UNION ALL
(   SELECT 'table2' as source, * FROM table2
    EXCEPT
    SELECT 'table2' as source, * FROM table1) 

Si desea obtener qué valores de columna son diferentes, puede usar el modelo Entity-Attribute-Value:

declare @Data1 xml, @Data2 xml

select @Data1 = 
(
    select * 
    from (select * from Test1 except select * from Test2) as a
    for xml raw('Data')
)

select @Data2 = 
(
    select * 
    from (select * from Test2 except select * from Test1) as a
    for xml raw('Data')
)

;with CTE1 as (
    select
        T.C.value('../@ID', 'bigint') as ID,
        T.C.value('local-name(.)', 'nvarchar(128)') as Name,
        T.C.value('.', 'nvarchar(max)') as Value
    from @Data1.nodes('Data/@*') as T(C)    
), CTE2 as (
    select
        T.C.value('../@ID', 'bigint') as ID,
        T.C.value('local-name(.)', 'nvarchar(128)') as Name,
        T.C.value('.', 'nvarchar(max)') as Value
    from @Data2.nodes('Data/@*') as T(C)     
)
select
    isnull(C1.ID, C2.ID) as ID, isnull(C1.Name, C2.Name) as Name, C1.Value as Value1, C2.Value as Value2
from CTE1 as C1
    full outer join CTE2 as C2 on C2.ID = C1.ID and C2.Name = C1.Name
where
not
(
    C1.Value is null and C2.Value is null or
    C1.Value is not null and C2.Value is not null and C1.Value = C2.Value
)

EJEMPLO DE FIDDLE DE SQL

Prueba esto :

SELECT 
    [First Name], [Last Name]
FROM 
    [Temp Test Data] AS td EXCEPTION JOIN [Data] AS d ON 
         (d.[First Name] = td.[First Name] OR d.[Last Name] = td.[Last Name])

Mucho más simple de leer.

Esto hará que el truco, similar a la solución de Tiago , devuelva también la tabla "fuente".

select [First name], [Last name], max(_tabloc) as _tabloc
from (
  select [First Name], [Last name], 't1' as _tabloc from table1
  union all
  select [First name], [Last name], 't2' as _tabloc from table2
) v
group by [Fist Name], [Last name]
having count(1)=1

El resultado contendrá diferencias entre tablas, en la columna _tabloc tendrá una referencia de tabla.

• Duplicar la detección de filas (la mayoría de las otras respuestas aquí no)
• Ordenar resultados por argumento
• Limitar a columnas específicas
• Ignorar columnas (por ejemplo, ModifiedUtc)
• Nombres de tablas de bases de datos cruzadas
• Tablas temporales (usar como solución alternativa para diferir vistas)

Puede usar excepto, por ejemplo, algo como esto:

-- DB1..Tb1 have values than DB2..Tb1 not have
Select Col1,Col2,Col3 From DB1..Tb1
except
Select Col1,Col2,Col3 From DB2..Tb1
-- Now we change order
-- DB2..Tb1 have values than DB1..Tb1 not have
Select Col1,Col2,Col3 From DB2..Tb1
except
Select Col1,Col2,Col3 From DB1..Tb1

Para una simple prueba de humo en la que intenta asegurarse de que dos tablas coincidan sin preocuparse por los nombres de columna:

--ensure tables have matching records
Select count (*) from tbl_A
Select count (*) from tbl_B

--create temp table of all records in both tables
Select * into #demo from tbl_A 
Union All
Select * from tbl_B

--Distinct #demo records = Total #demo records/2 = Total tbl_A records = total tbl_B records
Select distinct * from #demo 

Puede escribir fácilmente un procedimiento de tienda para comparar un lote de tablas.

Hay un problema de rendimiento relacionado con la unión izquierda, así como la unión completa con datos de gran tamaño.

En mi opinión, esta es la mejor solución:

select [First Name], count(1) e from (select * from [Temp Test Data] union all select * from [Temp Test Data 2]) a group by [First Name] having e = 1
