Hello

I would like to know how sort records with duplicate dates ?
And I need to sort by date and balance decrease.

For instance:

   date                 balance
02.02.2021 23:12:56    708  
02.02.2021 23:12:56    708
02.02.2021 23:12:56    232
02.02.2021 23:30:50    345

Its doesnt work fine with select:

select * from table
group by date,balance

Thanks

What about a feedback in your topic?
What about your Oracle version as asked in the forum rules?
What about a test case as asked so many times in your topics?

Are you confusing ORDER BY with GROUP BY?

(and btw, I wish you would not say "record" when you mean "row").

I mean order by, not group by of course, syntax error.

Its necessery to use analytic function, I need to figure it out.

The result shoud be order by DATE, and when DATE is duplicated sort by balance yet.
