Oracle aggregation function to allocate amount

Question

Suppose I have 2 tables T1 and T2 as follows

T1:

bag_id bag_type capacity
------|--------|--------
  1       A             


        

Answer 1

This should do the trick:

select t1.bag_id
     , t1.bag_type
     , t1.capacity
     , least( t1.capacity -- don't over fill the bag
            , greatest( 0 -- don't under fill the bag
                      , t2.item_amount  -- to be allocated
                      - nvl(sum(t1.capacity) -- less previous allocations
                          over (partition by t1.bag_type
                                    order by t1.capacity desc
                             rows between unbounded preceding and 1 preceding)
                           , 0))) Allocated
  from t1
  join t2
    on t2.item_type = t1.bag_type;

    BAG_ID B   CAPACITY  ALLOCATED
---------- - ---------- ----------
         1 A        500        500
         2 A        300        300
         3 A        100         50
         4 B        200        200
         5 B        100        100
