SQL Subquery return more than 1 row

Dec 27 2015 11:20 PM

I get an error that subquery returns more than one value. When there are more than 2 rows, I want to grab the max

TimesheetBatchId. Can someone help me modify the procedure to choose the row with greater or max TimesheetBatchID.

Example: TimesheetBatch Table Below


TimesheetBatchId        PeriodStart         PeriodEnd         Status

2                                    12/5/2015         12/11/2015        3

4                                    12/5/2015         12/11/2015        3

8                                   12/5/2015       12/11/2015    3 -- I should get this row because 8 is greater and the max

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetBatchIdByPeriodStartAndStatus] 	
@periodStart datetime, 	
@periodEnd datetime, 	
@timeSheetBatchId int output  
AS BEGIN 		
SELECT Distinct [TimesheetBatchId]
                 ,[RptHdrId] 			  
                 ,[DateCreated] 			  
                 ,[PeriodStart] 			  
                 ,[PeriodEnd] 			  
                  ,[BatchID] 			 			 			  ,
                  [Status] 		
INTO #Temp 		
FROM  [ExampleTimesheet].[dbo].[TimeSheetBatch] 	    
Where PeriodStart =  convert(datetime, @periodStart) 
      and [Status] = 3 And PeriodEnd <>  convert(datetime, @periodEnd)  		
      BEGIN  		
     if( @@ROWCOUNT > 0) 		   
        Select @timeSheetBatchId = (Select [TimesheetBatchId] From  #Temp) 		
     END  
Drop Table #Temp 
END
