Question : Complicated Select & Insert statement - MS SQL 2008

I've got a really complicated SP to build (or at least it is to me) and I'm realy confused so forgive me if I make little sense -

Basically I'm being sent a number of variables, which include -

     @LocationID int,
      @JobTitle nvarchar(50),
      @category nvarchar(50),
      @username nvarchar(255),
@description nvarchar(max)

I have 4 main tables that are affected here these being
JBLocation - this has three columns JBLID (PK) JBLSiteID (SK) JBLocation - Nvarchar

JBAdvert - JBAID (PK) JBASiteID (SK), JBALocation Nvarchar + More

JBEmailNotification - JBENotificationID (PK), JBENSiteID (SK) JBENLocation nvarchar JBENCategory nvarchar JBENKeyword nvarchar

JBEmployee - JBEID (PK), JBESiteID(SK) JBEUsername nvarchar

&

JBESent JBESJobID (SK), JBESSiteID (SK), JBESLocation, JBESCategory, JBESReceipients.

What I am trying to do is capture the JBAdvert (JBAID, JBASiteID, JBALocation, JBACategory) for the last record entered by @username where the (JBAdvert JBALocation = (JBLocation JBLocation) & JBLocation (JBLID = @LocationID.
And the number of JBES Recepients that match - this query produces a list of all of the recipients -

Select
Distinct(C.JBACAID),
C.JBACAUsername,
S.JBSURLShort,
S.JBSURL,
S.JBSNoReplyEmail
from dbo.JBEmailNotification EN
inner join dbo.JBACandidate C on C.JBACAID = EN.JBENcandidateID
inner join dbo.JBSite S on S.JBSSiteID = EN.JBENsiteID
inner join dbo.JBLocation L on L.JBLSiteID = EN.JBENsiteID
Where JBENlocation IN(SELECT JBLocation FROM dbo.JBLocation WHERE JBLID = 435)
AND JBENcategory = 'Secretarial' AND 'PA, Secretary, Office Manager, Administrator' like '%' + JBENKeyword + '%' (((Iv'e used variables here)))
And this Query produces the advert data -

Select top (1)
AD.JBAID,
AD.JBASiteID,
AD.JBALocation,
AD.JBACategory,
E.JBEID
FROM dbo.JBAdvert AD inner join dbo.JBEmployee E on E.JBEID = AD.JBAEmployeeID
WHERE E.JBEUsername = @username
ORDER BY AD.JBAID DESC

Hope I am making sense - but I'm really confused so probably not..

Please let me have your thoughts

Answer : Complicated Select & Insert statement - MS SQL 2008

To be frank, you explanation does not much sense but I had a look at the queries you provided and that's something I came up with. Try it and see if the result is what you are looking for

Probably the sub-query could be improved but for that I would need to know all the relations and understand why you add this line in:

Where JBENlocation IN(SELECT JBLocation FROM dbo.JBLocation WHERE JBLID = 435)
