I have a data set like below.

Table 1

unit            item
----------------------------

S1               I1
S1               I2
S1               I3

Table 2

item           substitute_item    createdon

I3                 I7               Jan2018
I8                 I3               Feb2018
I9                 I8               Mar2018

we can read above as  i7 was replaced with i3 and i3 was replaced with i8 and i8 was replaced with i9.

I would like my result set to have

S1        I1
S1        I2
S1        I3
S1        I7
S1        I8
S1        I9

Thanks for your help.

From the description it's the other way around - there's no relationship to I7.

I3 was replaced with I8.
I8 was replace with I9.

So I3 becomes I8 and then I9.

But

I7 was replaced with I3

I7 doesn't appear in table 1.

@kapilavastu - you need to explain in more detail how you get that result set from that data, as well as supplying all the other stuff Michel has asked for.

Sorry for this late email.

To explain this in an easy example.

Table 1

I1
I2
I3
I7
I8
I9


I1,I2,I9 are linked to S1 through a derived relationship by joining multiple tables.


item substitute_item createdon

I3 I7 Jan2018
I8 I3 Feb2018
I9 I8 Mar2018


I9 was replaced by I8 and I8 was replaced by I3 and I3 was replaced by I7.

I would like the result set to be like

I1 S1
I2 S1
I3 S1
I7 S1
I8 S1
I9 S1

Why would you expect repeating the same gibberish a month later will get you a better response. A better well though out, coherent question with a test case will get you an answer, not this.
