Sample Solution:
-- Selecting specific columns along with additional calculated columns
SELECT salesorderid,
-- Truncating the orderdate to the month level and aliasing it as MonthOrderOccurred
DATE_TRUNC('month', orderdate) AS MonthOrderOccurred,
salespersonid,
customerid,
subtotal,
-- Calculating the running total of subtotals for each customer, ordered by orderdate and salesorderid
-- The running total is calculated using the SUM window function with the PARTITION BY clause
-- The ROWS UNBOUNDED PRECEDING clause specifies that the summation starts from the beginning of the partition
-- The ORDER BY clause defines the order within the partition
SUM(subtotal) OVER (
PARTITION BY customerid ORDER BY orderdate,
salesorderid ROWS UNBOUNDED PRECEDING
) AS RunningTotal,
-- Including the actual order date as it is
orderdate AS ActualOrderDate
-- Selecting from the Salesorderheader table
FROM Sales.salesorderheader
-- Filtering out records where salespersonid is not null and orderdate is on or after December 2011
WHERE salespersonid IS NOT NULL
AND DATE_TRUNC('month', orderdate) >= '2011-12-01';
Explanation:
- This SQL query retrieves data from the sales order header table with additional calculations for a running total.
- Comments are added to explain each part of the query for better understanding and maintenance.
- Here's a breakdown of what the query does:
- It selects specific columns from the sales order header table.
- It truncates the orderdate to the month level and aliases it as MonthOrderOccurred.
- It includes the salespersonid, customerid, subtotal, and actual order date columns.
- It calculates the running total of subtotals for each customer using the SUM window function.
- The running total is partitioned by customerid and ordered by orderdate and salesorderid.
- The running total calculation starts from the beginning of the partition due to the ROWS UNBOUNDED PRECEDING clause.
- It filters out records where the salespersonid is not null and the orderdate is on or after December 2011.
Sample Output:
salesorderid|monthorderoccurred |salespersonid|customerid|subtotal |runningtotal|actualorderdate |
