SQL Server: Performing OUTER APPLY between two subqueries

I want to get results from two subqueries using an OUTER Apply but it does not work. Below I put the skeleton of the query i am trying to do as an example:



SELECT DISTINCT D.Field1, D.Field2, S.Field1, S.Field2
FROM (
SELECT Field1, Field2
FROM Table1 t1 INNER JOIN Table2 t2 on t1.CommonField = t2.CommonField
INNER JOIN Table3 t3 on t3.CommonField = t2.CommonField
LEFT JOIN Table4 t4 on t4.CommonField = t3.CommonField
WHERE t1.Date > '20181011'

) D OUTER APPLY
(
SELECT Field1, Field2
FROM Table5 t5 INNER JOIN Table6 t6 on t6.CommonField = t5.CommonField
INNER JOIN Table7 t7 on t7.CommonField = t6.CommonField
WHERE t5.Field4 = 'SomeWhat'
GROUP BY t5.Date
) S


SQL Server parser give me an error:
Icorrect syntax near 'D'.



I am using SQL Server 2008.

    The "skeleton" looks syntactically OK. Problem lies elsewhere.

    What's that GROUP BY doing in there? You're not selecting t5.Date and you're not aggregating...

    I suspect that this is an anonymised query (who would really name all their objects table{n}, field{n}, and commonfield and not go crazy after a few hours because they have no idea what is what anymore), and the OP has anonymised it so much it's become a valid query (apart from the GROUP BY issue that @LordPeter mentioned). Post your actual query, not one that represents it, but doesn't show the problem you're having.

The code looks okay, except that you've used GROUP BY t5.Date, but selecting other columns such as Field1, Field2. Just add these columns into GROUP BY:



SELECT Field1, Field2
FROM Table5 t5 INNER JOIN Table6 t6 on t6.CommonField = t5.CommonField
INNER JOIN Table7 t7 on t7.CommonField = t6.CommonField
WHERE t5.Field4 = 'SomeWhat'
GROUP BY t5.Date, t5.Field1, t5.Field2


Let me show a work example:



DECLARE  @TableA TABLE (
id BIGINT IDENTITY NOT NULL,
value nvarchar(max) NOT NULL
);

DECLARE @TableB TABLE (
id BIGINT IDENTITY NOT NULL,
value nvarchar(max) NOT NULL,
tableARid BIGINT NOT NULL
)

INSERT INTO @TableA(value) VALUES('test');
INSERT INTO @TableB(value, tableARid) VALUES ('test1', 1);
INSERT INTO @TableB(value, tableARid) VALUES ('test2', 1);
INSERT INTO @TableB(value, tableARid) VALUES ('test3', 1);

SELECT
subQuery.id
, subQuery.value
, oa.id
FROM
(
SELECT
ta.id
, ta.value
FROM @TableA ta
) subQuery
OUTER APPLY
(
SELECT
tb.id
, tb.value
FROM @TableB tb
GROUP BY tb.id, tb.[value]
) oa
