Question

If in a mysql table RESERVATIONS there are DATE_ARRIVAL, DATE_DEPARTED and TOTAL_EARN columns

How do I Group By month, all earnings in 2010?

Answer 1

select monthname(DATE_ARRIVAL),sum(TOTAL_EARN) from RESERVATIONS where DATE_ARRIVAL between '2010-01-01' and '2010-12-31 23:59:59' group by monthname(DATE_ARRIVAL);

Though it kind of depends on which column you want to base your predicate (DATE_ARRIVAL or DATE_DEPARTED?)
