Question

I have a very simple SQL Query which is getting results in the following way

COL-A         COL-B 
WINDCHILL   99.998889
WINDCHILL   96.000000

Now how i can modify my query so that I get the total in a single line?

COL-A         COL-B 
WINDCHILL   195.99

The necessary query is as;

SELECT ISNULL([Task IT Assets], [Project IT Asset]) AS Asset ,
        SUM(P.ActualWork) AS taskHours
FROM    [IR.TimesheetHoursProjectTask] p
WHERE   p.ActualWork > 0
AND ([Task IT Assets] IS NOT NULL OR [Project IT Asset] IS NOT NULL)
GROUP BY ISNULL([Task IT Assets], [Project IT Asset]), ActualWork
ORDER BY p.ActualWork DESC

Answer 1

I think the problem is that you shouldn’t have ActualWork in your GROUP BY clause.

Try this instead:

SELECT ISNULL([Task IT Assets], [Project IT Asset]) AS Asset ,
        SUM(P.ActualWork) AS taskHours
FROM    [IR.TimesheetHoursProjectTask] p
WHERE   p.ActualWork > 0
AND ([Task IT Assets] IS NOT NULL OR [Project IT Asset] IS NOT NULL)
GROUP BY ISNULL([Task IT Assets], [Project IT Asset])
ORDER BY SUM(P.ActualWork) DESC
