Question

Below is some SQL to pull a list of clients. As you can see I added the lines annotated by "-- ADDED"--a new field, a join and an order by. I m trying to display one client per row in my result set, but for each client, I want to display the most recent order. What s the best way to do this? Should I put a where in my JOIN or use the TOP 1? I suppose there are a few ways, but I want to make it as efficient as possible.

SELECT 
    CONVERT(NVARCHAR(255),client.identifyingnumber) As [Client ID], 
    CONVERT(VARCHAR,client.name) As [Client Name], 
    client.clientid As [Id],
    CONVERT(CHAR(10),[ecom_order].[order_date],101)  -- ADDED
FROM  
    client 
    JOIN clientstatus ON client.clientstatusid = clientstatus.clientstatusid 
    JOIN clienttype ON clienttype.clienttypeid = client.clienttypeid 
    -- keep left outer join since some clients won t have any orders, thus no last order
    LEFT OUTER JOIN [ecom_order] ON client.clientid = [ecom_order].clientid -- ADDED
WHERE  
    client.name LIKE  %_%  
    AND 
    client.name <= (
        SELECT MAX(maxsubquery.ordercolumn) FROM (
            SELECT 
                TOP 10 client.name AS ordercolumn 
            FROM  
                client 
                JOIN clientstatus ON client.clientstatusid = clientstatus.clientstatusid 
                JOIN clienttype ON clienttype.clienttypeid = client.clienttypeid 
            WHERE  
                client.name LIKE  %_%  
            ORDER BY client.name
        ) 
        AS maxsubquery)
 ORDER BY 
    client.name,
    [ecom_order].order_date DESC -- ADDED

Try this

   SELECT 
        CONVERT(NVARCHAR(255),client.identifyingnumber) As [Client ID], 
        CONVERT(VARCHAR,client.name) As [Client Name], 
        client.clientid As [Id],
      -- Change to get latest
        CONVERT(CHAR(10),Max([ecom_order].[order_date]),101)       
     FROM  client 
        JOIN clientstatus ON client.clientstatusid = clientstatus.clientstatusid 
        JOIN clienttype ON clienttype.clienttypeid = client.clienttypeid 
        -- keep left outer join since some clients won t have any orders, 
     -- thus no last order
        LEFT OUTER JOIN [ecom_order] ON client.clientid = [ecom_order].clientid 
    WHERE  
        client.name LIKE  %_%  
        AND 
        client.name <= (
            SELECT MAX(maxsubquery.ordercolumn) FROM (
                SELECT 
                    TOP 10 client.name AS ordercolumn 
                FROM  
                    client 
                    JOIN clientstatus ON client.clientstatusid = clientstatus.clientstatusid 
                    JOIN clienttype ON clienttype.clienttypeid = client.clienttypeid 
                WHERE  
                    client.name LIKE  %_%  
                ORDER BY client.name
            ) 
            AS maxsubquery)
     GROUP BY client.identifyingnumber,client.name,client.client_id
     ORDER BY 
        client.name
