TSQL - Assign value from query to variable if record exists in a single select

Question

How I can improve below code to use 'select' only once?

IF EXISTS (SELECT [NUMBER] FROM [TABLE] WHERE [ID_RECORD] = @id_record
BEGIN
   DECLARE @tmp_variable
   SELECT @tmp_variable = [NUMBER] FROM [TABLE] WHERE [ID_RECORD] = @id_record

   SET @other_variable = @tmp_variable
END
ELSE
BEGIN
   SET @other_variable = 0
END

Solution 1

Try This :

 DECLARE @tmp_variable INT
 SET @tmp_variable = ISNULL(( SELECT    [NUMBER]
                              FROM      [TABLE]
                              WHERE     [ID_RECORD] = @id_record
                             ), 0)

Solution 2

Try this solution:

DECLARE @tmp_variable int
SET @tmp_variable = null
SELECT @tmp_variable = [NUMBER] FROM [TABLE] WHERE [ID_RECORD] = @id_record

IF @tmp_variable is not null
BEGIN           
   SET @other_variable = @tmp_variable
END
ELSE
BEGIN
   SET @other_variable = 0
END
