SQL Query Templates
Ready-to-use boilerplate for common query patterns — CTEs, joins, date rollups, window functions, and stored procedures. Click Copy and adapt the table/column names.
CTE
Basic CTE (Common Table Expression)
Break a query into a readable, reusable named block.
WITH recent_orders AS (
    SELECT
        customer_id,
        order_id,
        order_date,
        total_amount
    FROM orders
    WHERE order_date >= DATEADD(day, -30, GETDATE())
)
SELECT
    customer_id,
    COUNT(order_id)   AS order_count,
    SUM(total_amount) AS total_spent
FROM recent_orders
GROUP BY customer_id
ORDER BY total_spent DESC;
Recursive CTE (hierarchy / org chart)
Walk a parent-child tree, e.g. an employee/manager hierarchy.
WITH RECURSIVE employee_hierarchy AS (
    -- Anchor: top-level rows (no manager)
    SELECT
        employee_id,
        manager_id,
        employee_name,
        1 AS level
    FROM employees
    WHERE manager_id IS NULL

    UNION ALL

    -- Recursive: join children to their parent's result
    SELECT
        e.employee_id,
        e.manager_id,
        e.employee_name,
        eh.level + 1
    FROM employees e
    INNER JOIN employee_hierarchy eh
        ON e.manager_id = eh.employee_id
)
SELECT *
FROM employee_hierarchy
ORDER BY level, employee_name;
-- Note: SQL Server / Oracle: drop the RECURSIVE keyword (just WITH employee_hierarchy AS (...))
Joins
INNER / LEFT JOIN across multiple tables
Combine orders with customers and line items in one query.
SELECT
    o.order_id,
    c.customer_name,
    o.order_date,
    p.product_name,
    oi.quantity
FROM orders o
INNER JOIN customers c
    ON o.customer_id = c.customer_id
LEFT JOIN order_items oi
    ON o.order_id = oi.order_id
LEFT JOIN products p
    ON oi.product_id = p.product_id
WHERE o.order_date >= '2026-01-01'
ORDER BY o.order_date DESC;
GROUP BY / Dates
Monthly rollup with GROUP BY on a date
Aggregate a date column by month (swap the truncation line for your engine).
SELECT
    DATE_TRUNC('month', order_date) AS order_month,     -- PostgreSQL
    -- FORMAT(order_date, 'yyyy-MM')  AS order_month,    -- SQL Server
    -- DATE_FORMAT(order_date, '%Y-%m') AS order_month,  -- MySQL
    COUNT(*)          AS order_count,
    SUM(total_amount) AS revenue
FROM orders
GROUP BY DATE_TRUNC('month', order_date)
ORDER BY order_month;
Window Functions
ROW_NUMBER + running total
Rank each customer's orders and compute a running total.
SELECT
    customer_id,
    order_id,
    order_date,
    total_amount,
    ROW_NUMBER() OVER (
        PARTITION BY customer_id
        ORDER BY order_date DESC
    ) AS order_rank,
    SUM(total_amount) OVER (
        PARTITION BY customer_id
        ORDER BY order_date
        ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND CURRENT ROW
    ) AS running_total
FROM orders;
Stored Procedures
Parameterized stored procedure
A basic proc with optional date-range filters (T-SQL syntax).
CREATE PROCEDURE GetCustomerOrders
    @CustomerId INT,
    @StartDate  DATE = NULL,
    @EndDate    DATE = NULL
AS
BEGIN
    SET NOCOUNT ON;

    SELECT
        order_id,
        order_date,
        total_amount
    FROM orders
    WHERE customer_id = @CustomerId
        AND (@StartDate IS NULL OR order_date >= @StartDate)
        AND (@EndDate   IS NULL OR order_date <= @EndDate)
    ORDER BY order_date DESC;
END;
-- Call it: EXEC GetCustomerOrders @CustomerId = 101, @StartDate = '2026-01-01';
Upsert / Merge
MERGE (upsert) from a staging table
Insert new rows and update matching ones in a single statement.
MERGE INTO customers AS target
USING staging_customers AS source
    ON target.customer_id = source.customer_id
WHEN MATCHED THEN
    UPDATE SET
        target.customer_name = source.customer_name,
        target.email         = source.email,
        target.updated_at    = GETDATE()
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
    INSERT (customer_id, customer_name, email, created_at)
    VALUES (source.customer_id, source.customer_name, source.email, GETDATE());

SQL Query Templates — Copy-Paste Boilerplate for CTEs, Joins & Stored Procedures

SQL Query Templates is a library of ready-to-use boilerplate SQL for common patterns — CTEs, joins, date rollups, window functions, stored procedures, and upserts. It's built for developers and analysts who need a SQL CTE example or a SQL window function example to start from, instead of looking up syntax from scratch every time. Browse by category, copy a template, and adapt it to your own table and column names.

⚡ Key Takeaways

  • Six categories: CTEs, joins, date rollups, window functions, stored procedures, upserts.
  • Every template is a complete, realistic structure — not a bare minimal example.
  • Written in standard SQL with inline notes on engine-specific variations.
  • A faster starting point than looking up syntax from scratch every time.

What, Who, When & Why

What it's forA library of ready-to-copy SQL boilerplate for CTEs, joins, date rollups, window functions, stored procedures, and upserts.
Who it's forDevelopers and analysts who don't want to look up correct syntax from scratch every time.
When to use itWhen starting a query pattern you don't write often enough to remember the exact syntax for.
Why it's neededLooking up correct SQL syntax repeatedly wastes time, and small syntax mistakes in patterns like recursive CTEs are easy to make from memory.
Best way to use itRead each template's short description before copying to confirm it matches your exact use case, then rename placeholder tables and columns immediately.

How to Use SQL Query Templates

  1. Browse the templates, organized by category: CTEs, Joins, GROUP BY / Dates, Window Functions, Stored Procedures, and Upsert / Merge.
  2. Read the short description under each template to confirm it fits your use case.
  3. Click Copy on the card to grab that template's SQL.
  4. Paste it into your editor and swap in your own table and column names.

What's Included

CategoryTemplates
CTEBasic CTE, Recursive CTE (hierarchy/org chart)
JoinsINNER/LEFT JOIN across multiple tables
GROUP BY / DatesMonthly rollup with date truncation
Window FunctionsROW_NUMBER with a running total
Stored ProceduresParameterized procedure with optional filters
Upsert / MergeMERGE statement from a staging table

Each template is written to be immediately readable and adaptable — rather than a minimal one-line example, every template shows a realistic, complete structure you'd actually use in a real query, including sensible variable and column naming that makes it clear what to swap out for your own schema.

Key Features

  • Six categories of common, real-world SQL patterns.
  • Each template includes a short description of what it's for.
  • One-click copy for each individual template.
  • Written in standard, widely-portable SQL syntax with notes on engine-specific variations where relevant.

Practical Use Cases

  • Getting started quickly: skip the syntax lookup and start editing a working query instead of writing one from a blank page.
  • Learning SQL patterns: study a correct, working example of a CTE, window function, or stored procedure structure.
  • Standardizing team practices: use consistent boilerplate patterns across a team's queries.
  • Building monthly reports: start from the date-rollup template for recurring reporting queries.
  • Interview or exam preparation: review correct syntax patterns for common SQL interview topics like window functions and CTEs.

Tips for Best Results

  • Read the short description on each template before copying, to confirm it matches the specific pattern you need rather than a similar-looking one.
  • Rename the placeholder table and column names immediately after pasting, so you don't accidentally run a query against tables that don't exist.
  • Use the recursive CTE template as a learning reference even if your immediate need is simpler — it demonstrates a pattern that's useful for hierarchical data in many contexts.

Related Terminology

A CTE (Common Table Expression) is a named, temporary result set defined with a WITH clause, useful for breaking a complex query into readable steps. A window function performs a calculation across a set of rows related to the current row (like a running total) without collapsing them into a single result, unlike a standard aggregate. An upsert (via MERGE) inserts new rows and updates matching existing ones in a single statement.

Important Considerations

Templates use standard SQL syntax where possible, but some features (like date truncation functions or recursive CTE syntax) vary between database engines — check the inline notes in each template for engine-specific variations (PostgreSQL, SQL Server, MySQL) before running it. Templates are starting points, not finished queries — always review and test against your actual schema before running in a production environment.

Related Tools

Once you've adapted a template, format it with the SQL Formatter, or get a plain-English explanation of your final query with the SQL Query Explainer. Building a CASE statement instead? Try the CASE Builder.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these templates written for a specific database engine?

They use standard SQL where possible, with inline comments noting variations for PostgreSQL, SQL Server, and MySQL where syntax differs between engines.

Can I use these templates directly, or do I need to edit them?

You'll need to swap in your own table and column names — the templates provide a correct, working structure to build from rather than being ready to run unmodified.

What's a good starting template for a monthly report?

The GROUP BY / Dates template shows how to roll up data by month using date truncation, a common pattern for recurring reports.

Is there an example for hierarchical data, like an org chart?

Yes, the Recursive CTE template demonstrates how to traverse hierarchical relationships like an employee-to-manager structure.
