I am unsure how to write this query, can someone help?
I have two tables.
One has a list of retailers (tbl_retailer):
retailerid
name
postcode
e.g.
1 Sprocket Supplies CH23 4PY
The other has the sales by month for each retailer:
retailerid
month_2
sales
e.g.
1 2004-01 100
1 2004-02 400
1 2004-03 300
1 2004-04 200
1 2004-05 300
What I need is a way to output a list of each retailer with two columns
at the end being sales this year to date and the equivalent sales for
the previous year.
So the columns would be:
name this_years_sales_to_date last_years_sales_to_date
Total sales for ever would be a simple GROUP BY query with a sum on the
sales - but I cant see how I am going to get this info. Do I need to use
nested queries?
Regards,
Dan.
