Question

Query

Asked by: notbobj1

I need to come up with the pl/sql query that will produce a record that has a summed amount for each code and term per person, so that the result set would look something like:
John, TU, SU, 0002500
John, OF, SU, 0005000
John, TU, WI, 0001000
John, TU, AU, 0003030
Mike, OF, SP, 0040050
(note: I need the amount to be 7 char long and include cents but no decimal point)
(note: you will need to decode 2 sets of values:
for the Term - 200701, the return should be SU, for 200702, AU, 200703, WI, 200704, SP
for the code, TU01, TU03, TU04 should return TU, REGF should be OF)
Here are my tables and data
(User)
Id, Name
1, John
2, Mike

(Charges)
Id, Code, Term, Amount
1, TU04, 200701, 10.00
1, TU01, 200701, 15.00
1, REGF, 200701, 50.00
1, TU03, 200703, 5.50
1, TU01, 200703, 4.50
1, TU04, 200702, 30.30
2, REGF, 200704, 200.50
2, REGF, 200704, 200.00

rrjegan17,
I think this will work out great!
On a side note, I am trying to do something similar with another script, however I know I have something wrong, but not sure what.
The problem I am having is when the sum occurs, it is summing all the TU values, regardless of what term they are actually in.
I think I may need an additional select and move some things around, but with adding in the other selects into this mix, I am not sure what I need or where??

select sfrstcr_pidm,
decode(substr(sfrstcr_term_code,5,2),'01','SM','02','AU','03','WI','04','SP','AU'),
decode(TBRACCD_DETAIL_CODE,'TU01','TU','TU02','TU','TU03','TU','TU04','TU','REGF','OF','TU0S','OS','ATI','CF','CLIN','CF','DEF','CF','DHF','CF','EMST','CF','HSI','CF','LABC','CF','LABF','CF','NKIT','CF','NSGF','CF','RESX','CF','RKIT','CF','MEDS','CF','CF'),
LPAD(CAST(sum(tbraccd_amount)*100 as varchar(7)),7,'0')
    from   tbraccd,sfrstcr,

                                ssbsect_ptrm_end_date) census,
                   to_char(f_hei_census(ssbsect_ptrm_start_date,
                                ssbsect_ptrm_end_date),'DD-MON-YYYY') cnsdte
