| Hi All, I have this column that calculates the previous yr total drug charges to compare to current yr drug charges all done in Excel. I use the following calculation: SUMPRODUCT(([Referral Date]<ThisMonthStart)*1,([Referral Date]>=PrvYrStart)*1,[Product Charges])How do I convert this calculation in SQL, is there a way? any help would be greatly appreciated! |

| I don't know what SUMPRODUCT does and you don't specify what it does either. SQL does have a SUM and you can use inequality operators. Perhaps if you explained in english what you need to do we could help. |

| sorry... ok so what that calculation does is to take the sum of product charges for the given period of time, in this case month to month of the previous yr by checking the month column and grouping all the charges for that month in the previous yr and listing it in a separate column. I then do the same thing for the current charges for each current month so now I can compare for example total charges of January 2014 to January 2013 and compute the difference in either numbers or %.... I hope this makes sense |

[code]SELECT SUM(CASE WHEN [Referral Date] >= PrvYrStart AND [Referral Date] < ThisMonthStart THEN [Product Charges] ELSE 0 END)FROM dbo.Table1;[/code]

My suggestion returns only one row.Let us see your code.

| it does only return one row with 0's... by examining the data it sould have totals in it other than 0's....SELECT SUM(CASE WHEN [Referral Date] >= PrvYrStart AND [Referral Date] < FirstOfMonth THEN [Product Charges] ELSE 0 END)FROM [prs_MSCRM].[dbo].[Achievement_Analysis_Totals] is there something im missing? also how would I get that to populate a field in the view so I can access it without calculating it each time |

It depends on what datatype you are using for your date columns.Let med guess...? You are using varchar and storing data in US date format?Instead of using proper datatypes?SELECT SUM(CASE WHEN cast([Referral Date] as date) >= cast(PrvYrStart as date) AND cast([Referral Date] as date) < cast(FirstOfMonth as date) THEN [Product Charges] ELSE 0 END)FROM [prs_MSCRM].[dbo].[Achievement_Analysis_Totals]
