Hello friends,
I am trying to create a QUERY to use GROUP BY and sum in CF, this is a table:
EMPID EMP_CHARGE_NO EMPSAL
001 SA001 20
002 SA001 23
003 SA001 29
004 AT22 28
005 AT22 30

I am trying to use GROUP BY to SUM empsal by EMP_CHARGE_NO.
This is my query, but doesn’t work.

SELECT EMP_CHARGE_NO, SUM(EMPSAL) AS TOTAL
FROM EMP
GROUP BY EMP_CHARGE_NO

I am trying to get this result:
EMP_CHARGE_NO TOTAL
SA001 72
AT22 58

I don't know why, it keeps getting errors.
Please help.
Thanks,
Jenny.

There is no stupid question.

That looks right to me. What error message are you getting? What datatype is EMPSAL?
This is SQL server right, and not Oracle?

What I tested this query is on Oracle.
That's why.
It worked now in SQL.
thanks,
Jenny.
