SQL GROUP BY Statement

Aggregate functions often need an added GROUP BY statement.

The GROUP BY Statement

The GROUP BY statement is used in conjunction with the aggregate functions to group the result-set by one or more columns.

SQL GROUP BY Syntax

SELECT column_name, aggregate_function(column_name) FROM table_name WHERE column_name operator value GROUP BY column_name

SQL GROUP BY Example

We have the following "Orders" table:

O_Id 1 2 3 4 5 6

OrderDate 2008/11/12 2008/10/23 2008/09/02 2008/09/03 2008/08/30 2008/10/04

OrderPrice 1000 1600 700 300 2000 100

Customer Hansen Nilsen Hansen Hansen Jensen Nilsen

Now we want to find the total sum (total order) of each customer. We will have to use the GROUP BY statement to group the customers. We use the following SQL statement:

SELECT Customer,SUM(OrderPrice) FROM Orders GROUP BY Customer

The result-set will look like this: Customer Hansen Nilsen Jensen Nice! Isn't it? :) Let's see what happens if we omit the GROUP BY statement: SUM(OrderPrice) 2000 1700 2000

SELECT Customer,SUM(OrderPrice) FROM Orders

The result-set will look like this: Customer Hansen Nilsen Hansen Hansen Jensen Nilsen SUM(OrderPrice) 5700 5700 5700 5700 5700 5700

The result-set above is not what we wanted. Explanation of why the above SELECT statement cannot be used: The SELECT statement above has two columns specified (Customer and SUM(OrderPrice). The "SUM(OrderPrice)" returns a single value (that is the total sum of the "OrderPrice" column), while "Customer" returns 6 values (one value for each row in the "Orders" table). This will therefore not give us the correct result. However, you have seen that the GROUP BY statement solves this problem.

GROUP BY More Than One Column

We can also use the GROUP BY statement on more than one column, like this:

SELECT Customer,OrderDate,SUM(OrderPrice) FROM Orders GROUP BY Customer,OrderDate

SQL HAVING Clause

The HAVING Clause

The HAVING clause was added to SQL because the WHERE keyword could not be used with aggregate functions.

SQL HAVING Syntax

SELECT column_name, aggregate_function(column_name) FROM table_name WHERE column_name operator value GROUP BY column_name HAVING aggregate_function(column_name) operator value

SQL HAVING Example

We have the following "Orders" table: O_Id 1 2 3 4 5 6 OrderDate 2008/11/12 2008/10/23 2008/09/02 2008/09/03 2008/08/30 2008/10/04 OrderPrice 1000 1600 700 300 2000 100 Customer Hansen Nilsen Hansen Hansen Jensen Nilsen

Now we want to find if any of the customers have a total order of less than 2000. We use the following SQL statement:

SELECT Customer,SUM(OrderPrice) FROM Orders GROUP BY Customer HAVING SUM(OrderPrice)<2000

The result-set will look like this: Customer Nilsen SUM(OrderPrice) 1700

Now we want to find if the customers "Hansen" or "Jensen" have a total order of more than 1500. We add an ordinary WHERE clause to the SQL statement:

SELECT Customer,SUM(OrderPrice) FROM Orders WHERE Customer='Hansen' OR Customer='Jensen'

GROUP BY Customer HAVING SUM(OrderPrice)>1500

The result-set will look like this: Customer Hansen Jensen SUM(OrderPrice) 2000 2000

The rules regarding the use of the COMPUTE and COMPUTE BY clauses are listed below: 1>The DISTINCT keyword cannot be used with the aggregate functions. 2>All columns referred to in the COMPUTE clause must appear in the SELECT column list. 3>The ORDER BY clause must be used whenever the COMPUTE BY clause is used. 4>The ORDER BY clause can be eliminated only when the COMPUTE clause is used. 5>The columns listed in the COMPUTE BY clause must match the columns used in the ORDER BY clause. 6>More than one COMPUTE clause can be used in the SELECT statement to produce a result with subtotals and a grand total. 7>The different aggregate functions can be used on more than one column with the COMPUTE BY clause.
