# EDW

* Before creating a temp table, delete the table if already exists (IF OBJECT\_ID('TEMP.sg\_ALL\_TXN') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE TEMP.sg\_ALL\_TXN)
* While creating table, use distribution (CREATE TABLE TEMP.sg\_ALL\_TXN WITH (DISTRIBUTION = HASH(CUSTOMER\_ID),HEAP) AS DL)
* Use table with nolock (WITH(NOLOCK))
* Use outz filter for optimization (INNER JOIN FACT\_LOAN FL WITH(NOLOCK) ON DL.APPL\_ID = FL.APPL\_ID AND DL.OUTZ = 20991231120000 AND FL.OUTZ = 20991231120000)
