Good day,
I have a table of sales quotas showing the quotas for each sales manager for each month. ie
MANAGER_ID QUOTA MONTH
KJR 8000 1-JUN-1999 KJR 6000 1-JUL-1999 KJR 7000 1-AUG-1999 SFH 5000 1-JUN-1999 SFH 6000 1-JUL-1999 SFH 8000 1-AUG-1999
The month column is a DATE type and I expect to use a BETWEEN clause to compare dates (BETWEEN '1-SEP-1998' AND '1-SEP-1999'). I need to query out the current month quotas plus the year to date quotas for each sales manager. ie (Current month is AUG-1999, Year to date is SEP-1998 to AUG-1999):
MANAGER_ID CURRENT YTD
KJR 7000 21000 SFH 8000 19000
I tried modifying a Paradox 7 QBE statement that *does* give me this answer into an equivalent SQL statement, but for the CURRENT column, it returns the first quota on the list. For the actual data, I have noticed that the Sales Managers are assigned a yearly quota and it is split evenly between all 12 months to generate the monthly quotas so it's not readily noticable unless I fake data like this.
Can this work?
