In Oracle SQL, How to query to extract latest date values without missing out values from join table?

I have two different tables in DB, SR table and Quotestable.

SR Table

Quotes_table

I have done left join both the table in the below query,

Select 
sr.sr#, sr.sub_status, sq.quotes_status, sr.Equipment_status
from svcops_emea.s_sr sr
left join svcops_emea.s_quotes sq on sq.sr# = sr.sr#
Where s.srtype = 'Repair';

I'm getting the extracts with the duplicates because for the same SR(1-5676068874) there is two different quote_status(Quote-Cancelled, Quote-Accepted)

Now I changed my query below, I'm getting unique data based on the latest 'created' date from the Quotes table but in extract, it's missing SRs(1-8376068836) because it's not present in the Quotes table.

Select sr.sr#, sr.sub_status, sq.quotes_status, sr.Equipment_status 
from svcops_emea.s_sr sr 
left join svcops_emea.s_quotes sq on sq.sr# = sr.sr# 
inner join 
(
  Select sr#, max(Created) as maxdate 
  from svcops_emea.s_quotes 
  group by sr#
) tm on sq.sr# = tm.sr# and sq.Created = tm.maxdate and sq.sr# = sr.sr# 
Where s.srtype = 'Repair'

Could anyone please help me to query this condition where I can get the unique data based on a date without missing out on any SRs from SR Table?

The easiest solution is a lateral join (OUTER APPLY) where you can select the latest sq row for a sr row.

select sr.sr#, sr.sub_status, sq.quotes_status, sr.equipment_status
from svcops_emea.s_sr sr
outer apply
(
  select *
  from svcops_emea.s_quotes
  where s_quotes.sr# = sr.sr#
  order by created desc
  fetch first row only
) sq
where sr.srtype = 'repair';

Your own query is close, too. Only, don't join. Use INor EXISTS for the lookup in the ON clause:

Select sr.sr#, sr.sub_status, sq.quotes_status, sr.Equipment_status 
from svcops_emea.s_sr sr 
left join svcops_emea.s_quotes sq
  on sq.sr# = sr.sr# 
  and (sq.sr#, sq.Created) in
  ( 
    Select sr#, max(Created)
    from svcops_emea.s_quotes 
    group by sr#
  )
Where s.srtype = 'Repair';

Anoter solution would be to get the lastest status with Oracle's KEEP LAST aggregation function. And yet another would use a window function, e.g. MAX OVER.

If you rank rows in S_QUOTES per CREATED date value in descending order per each SR#, you can then outer-join that result to the S_SR table.

See comments within code. The 1st part of query represents sample data; query begins at line #13.
