Question

I have this query that works fine. It brings data from two tables, manager_details and users. What I need is to bring the sum of managers score BUT from week 1 to week 7. Week is another field in manager_details table which could have values from 0-x.

SELECT
  SUM(mng.score) AS accumulated_score,
  mng.manager_id AS manager_id,
  users.id,
  users.fname,
  users.lname
FROM manager_details AS mng
  JOIN users
    ON users.id = mng.manager_id
GROUP BY manager_id
ORDER BY accumulated_score DESC
LIMIT 5

In order to get score from week 1 to week 7, I have tried to add

SELECT
  SUM(mng.score) AS accumulated_score,
  mng.manager_id AS manager_id,
  users.id,
  users.fname,
  users.lname
FROM manager_details AS mng
WHERE  mng.week >= 1 AND mng.week <= 6    -- this line
  JOIN users
    ON users.id = mng.manager_id
GROUP BY manager_id
ORDER BY accumulated_score DESC
LIMIT 5

and got this

Error Code : 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 ‘join users
on users.id = mng.manager_id GROUP BY manager_id

and also tried

     ...         
     HAVING mng.week >= 1 AND mng.week <= 6  -- <-- 
     ...

I also put the HAVING clase after GROUP BY, before GROUP BY, at the end and did not work, got mysql error check syntax..etc.

I am doing something wrong, but not sure what is it.

So, What clause to use and where do I put that condition to filter my mng.score and get only scores that lie between weeks 1-7?

SELECT
  SUM(mng.score) AS accumulated_score,
  mng.manager_id AS manager_id,
  users.id,
  users.fname,
  users.lname
FROM manager_details AS mng
  JOIN users
    ON users.id = mng.manager_id
WHERE  mng.week >= 1 AND mng.week <= 6  
GROUP BY manager_id
ORDER BY accumulated_score DESC
LIMIT 5
