sql server - SQL query sum()/join/order by/ - what's wrong? -
i learning sql, using northwind example database , i'm stuck on simple problem: want list products name in 1 column , total quantities sold each product in second column. first, did this:
select p.productid ,sum(od.quantity) totalquantity products p join [order details] od on p.productid=od.productid group p.productid
and that's ok - have product id's , total quantities, when try this:
select p.productid ,p.productname , sum(od.quantity) totalquantity products p join [order details] od on p.productid=od.productid group p.productid
i error:
msg 8120, level 16, state 1, line 1 column 'products.productname' invalid in select list because not contained in either aggregate function or group clause.`
when use aggregate functions (like sum
) have group by
every other field in select
you have modify query follows
select p.productid, p.productname, sum(od.quantity) totalquantity products p join [order details] od on p.productid=od.productid group p.productid, p.productname
