Hi all,

I am relatively new to writing SQL, and I was hoping to get some help with the following:

I have created a column already which used a CASE WHEN function to look at if one date is greater than another, and to return a "Y" or a "N". I now want to create another column which will be a COUNT of the above. So I want to do a count of all the "Y" per ID. So in the first example, id like all rows with an ID of 1, to return a 2 in this new column as there are two Y's for them.

Any help, id be much appreciated! Thanks

    Please don't post an image for your question. Type them out.

    You can try this:
    SUM (CASE WHEN MET.IDENTIFIED_DTM>FAM.START_DTM) THEN 0 else 1 END) OVER (Partition by FAM.DIM_TF_FAMILY_ID) cnt

    Hi @Lee_Walmsley
    Considering that there are two columns in your result table that contain 'N'/'Y', the INITYALY_IDENTIFIED column is obtained by the CASE WHEN statement, and IS_TURNED_AROUND column exists in the FACT_TF_INDICATOR_MET table, so the calculation method for these two columns are somewhat different.

    Below is a sample which you can refer to:

    CREATE TABLE #TEST(ID INT,DATE_A DATE,DATE_B DATE,IS_TURNED_AROUND VARCHAR(10))  
    INSERT INTO #TEST VALUES  
    (1,'2022/4/20','2022/4/22','Y'),(1,'2022/3/20','2022/3/22','N'),  
    (1,'2022/4/23','2022/4/22','Y'),(1,'2022/3/15','2022/3/16','N'),  
    (1,'2022/4/25','2022/4/26','N'),(1,'2022/4/27','2022/4/28','N'),  
    (2,'2022/4/20','2022/4/22','Y'),(2,'2022/3/20','2022/3/22','N'),  
    (2,'2022/4/23','2022/4/22','Y'),(2,'2022/3/15','2022/3/16','Y'),  
    (2,'2022/4/25','2022/4/24','N'),(2,'2022/4/27','2022/4/26','Y')  
      
    --SELECT * FROM #TEST  
      
    SELECT ID,  
           CASE WHEN DATE_A > DATE_B THEN 'N' ELSE'Y'END AS INITYALY_IDENTIFIED,  
    	   SUM(CASE WHEN DATE_A > DATE_B THEN 0 ELSE 1 END)OVER(PARTITION BY ID) AS SUM_INITYALY_IDENTIFIED,  
           IS_TURNED_AROUND,  
    	   SUM(CASE WHEN IS_TURNED_AROUND='Y' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)OVER(PARTITION BY ID) AS SUM_IS_TURNED_AROUND  
    FROM #TEST  
    

    Best regards,
