Hey guys

I need some help

I have a situation where the fdmsaccountno, can have multiple productid associated with it


For eg in the query below

Fdmsaccountno can be have the productid 81 and 83,
However instead of counting 81 and 83 twice, i need it to count it once

Any ideas how this can be achieved

My query is as follows

SELECT 'Visa debit',
Count (distinct Dim_Outlet.FDMSAccountNo)AS [Number]
FROM Dim_Outlet
INNER JOIN stg_FDMS_Card_Entitlements ON Dim_Outlet.FDMSAccountNo = stg_FDMS_Card_Entitlements.FDMSAccountNo
INNER JOIN Dim_Product ON stg_FDMS_Card_Entitlements.[Product Code] = Dim_Product.ProductID
where [ProductID] ='81'
or ProductID ='83'
and [Account_Status]='16'

Probably simpler

where ProductID in ('81','83')
and [Account_Status]='16'

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
SSIS can be used in a similar way.
