Can you please assist I have the below sql script to get all registrant on the system with the latest status that the registrant is current on.
On table A below when I execute this script below am expecting to get the top record for this registrant like the one with the latest created date (2018-02-27) but that is not what the script is returning, its returning the one with this created date (2007-06-12).
Can you please assist by checking what is wrong with my script below.

Table A.

Forename1	Surname	     Status	      Created  		       dcStatus
Mmi Eagles	Tshebele	A	2018-02-27 11:40:50.793	          L         
Mmi Eagles	Tshebele	H	2010-02-26 17:24:22.410	          L         
Mmi Eagles	Tshebele	B	2007-11-02 07:47:50.297   	   L         
Mmi Eagles	Tshebele	A	2007-06-12 12:18:46.993 	   L

What I have tried:

Select 
  d.Forename1,
  d.Surname,
  s.Status,
  s.Created,
  u.dcStatus
   FROM [Warehouse1].[dbo].[User]u
   Inner join [DebtRelief] d
   inner join [Statuses] s
   on s.CrID=d.ID
   on u.UserID = d.Createdby
     where u.dcStatus = 'l' 
   order by s.Created desc

If you are trying to fetch the latest status per registrant, then you need to look at starting with an SQL GROUP BY Statement[^] to "put together" all the individual members status records. You can then return the member and their latest date by using the MAX aggregate function as a subquery. JOIN that to your status table and you can get just the rows you need from that. JOINing that to the rest of your data should be trivial.
