Question

Anyone can help me with this statement? I’m trying to get amount of beads in object with room capacity * quantity

SELECT 
object.id, object.name, 
location.address, 
location.postcode, 
location_city.`name`,

(
select
    case
            when object_room.object_room_type_id = 1 then (1 * object_room.quantity)
            when object_room.object_room_type_id = 2 then (2 * object_room.quantity)
            when object_room.object_room_type_id = 3 then (3 * object_room.quantity)
            when object_room.object_room_type_id = 4 then (5 * object_room.quantity)
            when object_room.object_room_type_id = 5 then (1 * object_room.quantity)
            when object_room.object_room_type_id = 6 then (4 * object_room.quantity)
            when object_room.object_room_type_id = 8 then (2 * object_room.quantity)
            when object_room.object_room_type_id = 9 then (3 * object_room.quantity)
    end CASE
from object_room

)



FROM object  
LEFT JOIN location ON object.location_id = location.id 
LEFT JOIN location_city ON location.location_city_id = location_city.id 
LEFT JOIN object_room ON object.id = object_room.object_id

I got this error:

[Err] 1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'CASE
from object_room

Please read the MySQL manual on the case statement:

case object_room.object_room_type_id
        when 1 then (1 * object_room.quantity)
        when 2 then (2 * object_room.quantity)
        when 3 then (3 * object_room.quantity)
        when 4 then (5 * object_room.quantity)
        when 5 then (1 * object_room.quantity)
        when 6 then (4 * object_room.quantity)
        when 8 then (2 * object_room.quantity)
        when 9 then (3 * object_room.quantity)
end
