我需要你需要的东西，尽管是在许多年后，我尝试了最流行的两个答案。这些都没有产生预期的结果。这就是我所能提供的…为了清晰起见，我更改了一些名称。

SELECT 
  cc.pk_ID AS pk_Customer_ID, 
  cc.Customer_Name AS Customer_Name, 
  IFNULL(pp.pk_ID, '') AS fk_Purchase_ID,
  IFNULL(pp.fk_Customer_ID, '') AS fk_Customer_ID,
  IFNULL(pp.fk_Item_ID, '') AS fk_Item_ID,
  IFNULL(pp.Purchase_Date, '') AS Purchase_Date
FROM customer cc
LEFT JOIN purchase pp ON (
  SELECT zz.pk_ID 
  FROM purchase zz 
  WHERE cc.pk_ID = zz.fk_Customer_ID 
  ORDER BY zz.Purchase_Date DESC LIMIT 1) = pp.pk_ID
ORDER BY cc.pk_ID;

表:

Customer => id, name
Purchase => id, customer_id, item_id, date

查询:

SELECT C.id, C.name, P.id, P.date
  FROM customer AS C
  LEFT JOIN purchase AS P ON 
    (
      P.customer_id = C.id 
      AND P.id IN (
        SELECT MAX(PP.id) FROM purchase AS PP GROUP BY PP.customer_id
      )
    )

你也可以指定一些条件到子选择查询

试试这个，会有帮助的。

我在我的项目中使用了这个。

SELECT 
*
FROM
customer c
OUTER APPLY(SELECT top 1 * FROM purchase pi 
WHERE pi.customer_id = c.Id order by pi.Id desc) AS [LastPurchasePrice]

先不讲代码，逻辑/算法如下:

Go to the transaction table with multiple records for the same client. Select records of clientID and the latestDate of client's activity using group by clientID and max(transactionDate) select clientID, max(transactionDate) as latestDate from transaction group by clientID inner join the transaction table with the outcome from Step 2, then you will have the full records of the transaction table with only each client's latest record. select * from transaction t inner join ( select clientID, max(transactionDate) as latestDate from transaction group by clientID) d on t.clientID = d.clientID and t.transactionDate = d.latestDate) You can use the result from step 3 to join any table you want to get different results.

如果你正在使用PostgreSQL，你可以使用DISTINCT ON来查找组中的第一行。

SELECT customer.*, purchase.*
FROM customer
JOIN (
   SELECT DISTINCT ON (customer_id) *
   FROM purchase
   ORDER BY customer_id, date DESC
) purchase ON purchase.customer_id = customer.id

PostgreSQL Docs - Distinct On

注意，DISTINCT ON字段——这里是customer_id——必须匹配ORDER BY子句中最左边的字段。

注意:这是一个非标准条款。

我发现这条线索可以解决我的问题。

但当我尝试时，它们的表现很低。Bellow是我对更好的性能的建议。

With MaxDates as (
SELECT  customer_id,
                MAX(date) MaxDate
        FROM    purchase
        GROUP BY customer_id
)

SELECT  c.*, M.*
FROM    customer c INNER JOIN
        MaxDates as M ON c.id = M.customer_id 

希望这对你有所帮助。
