Good day everyone.
A friend of mine who doesn't speak english asked me to make a question on this site for him.
Okay. His probles is: He needs to make a MySQL query to select all clients and number of their orders, or 0 if they have none.
There are two tables:
table Customers: id, name
table Orders: id, customer_id
Something like this:
client 0, 10 orders
clietn 1, 0 orders
client 2, 3 orders
And so on. But of course without text, just ordinary mysql select result.
The following will do as you asked:
select customers.name, count(orders.id)
from customers
left join orders on customers.id=orders.customer_id
group by customers.name
It basically counts the number of orders it can find for each customer.
This works because "no orders" gives NULL for Orders.id because of the LEFT JOIN.
COUNT(column) ignores NULLs so you'll get zero
SELECT
C.Name,
COUNT(O.id)
FROM
Customers C
LEFT JOIN
Orders O ON C.id = O.customer_id
GROUP BY
C.Name

I have two MySQL-tables:
Persons (pid,name,companyID,companyName)
Orders (oid,companyID,details)
Now I want to count the number of order_id for each companyName as following:
Name Total
-------------------
CompanyName1 : 1200
CompanyName2 : 758
CompanyName3 : 11
I used this query but it's not working properly.
SELECT count(o.oid) as total,p.companyName
FROM orders as o, persons as p
WHERE o.companyID = p.companyID
GROUP BY p.companyName
Use join and group the result by p.companyID
SELECT p.companyName, count(o.oid) as total
FROM orders as o join persons as p
on o.companyID = p.companyID
GROUP BY p.companyID
If you are missing the companies without any orders you can use a left join.
SELECT p.companyName, count(*) as total
FROM persons p
LEFT JOIN orders o ON o.companyID = p.companyID
GROUP BY p.companyID, p.companyName
Please do not use the old, legacy join syntax any more - it is outdated since 1992.
Your data model looks messed up. That you have company ids and names in the person table but no corresponding companies table is highly suspicious.
In any case, presumably there can be multiple rows per company. You can condense the persons table and then join:
SELECT c.companyName, COUNT(*) as total
FROM orders o JOIN
(SELECT DISTINCT companyId, companyName
FROM persons p
) c
ON o.companyID = c.companyID
GROUP BY c.companyName;
However, you should fix the data model so you have a real bona fide companies table -- especially because you seem to care about that entity.
first sorry, i don't have fluid english.
I want select 3 rows in 3 different tables, two of them without Foreing Key/relation.
Need to select amount of customers in each store, and total amount of payments in these stores in one query.
Here are the tables:
Customers
Stores
Payments
I have tried these querys to get payments for each store and customers for each store, but don't know how can unify in one query:
Payments/store
SELECT count(a.payment_id) as alquileres, b.store_id
FROM customer b, payment a
WHERE a.customer_id = b.customer_id
GROUP BY b.store_id;
customers/store
SELECT count(customer_id), store_id
FROM customer
GROUP BY store_id;
But when I add count(customer_id) in unique query don't have same results.
You can use one query:
select c.store_id,
count(distinct c.customer_id) as num_customers,
count(p.payment_id) as num_payments
from customers c left join
payments p
on p.customer_id = c.customer_id
group by c.store_id;
working with mySql I would like to list all purchases that customers made on a specific cathegory of products.
So, I had 3 tables: customers (idCustomer, Name) , cathegories (idCategory, CategoryName) and orders (idOrder, idCustomer, idCathegory, Qty, Price)
But I want a listing with ALL of the customers.
Not only the one who bought that specific idCategory
I thought something like:
select sum(Orders.Qty), Customers.Name
from Orders
right join Customers on Orders.idCustomer = Customer.idCustomer
where Orders.idCategory = 'Notebooks'
group by Orders.idCategory
but this statement only lists the records for customers who exists in Orders table.
And I want all of them ( the one who didnt buy, with qty =0 )
thanks in advance
Most people find left join easier to follow than right join. The logic for left join is to keep all rows in the first table, plus additional information from the remaining tables. So, if you want all customers, then that should be the first table.
You will then have a condition on the second table. Conditions on all but the first table should be in the on clause rather than a where. The reason is simple: when there is no match, then the value will be NULL and the where condition will fail.
So, try something like this:
select sum(o.Qty) as sumqty, c.Name
from Customers c left join
Orders o
on o.idCustomer = c.idCustomer and
o.idCategory = 'Notebooks'
group by c.Name;
Finally, the group by should have a relationship to the select clause.
Try this query
select sum(Orders.Qty), Customers.Name
from Customers
right join Orders on Customer.idCustomer = Orders.idCustomer and Orders.idCategory = 'Notebooks'
group by Customers.Name
I have a table containing customers and another containing all orders.
I want to display a list of customers and along side show the total value of their orders.
Obviously I could loop through the customers and then using PHP run another query to get each customer's revenue. I don't think this is efficient.
I am looking to achieve something like this:
SELECT username, [SELCT sum(revenue) from orders where userID=userID] from customers
And for this to show output:
bob 10000
jeff 25000
alan 500
SELECT a.username, SUM(b.revenue) totalRevenue
FROM customers a
LEFT JOIN Orders b
ON a.userID = b.UserID
GROUP BY a.username
This will list all customers with or without Orders.
To further learn more about join, please visit the article below,
Visual Representation of SQL Joins
you're close...
SELECT username, (SELECT sum(revenue) from orders where userID=c.userID) rev
from customers c
You can join the tables and the group them by the order name
SELECT o.username,
sum(revenue) as sum_revenue
from orders o
left outer join customers c on c.userid = o.userid
group by o.username
No need for a subselect with that. Try something like this:-
SELECT customers.userID, customers.username, SUM(revenue)
FROM customers INNER JOIN orders ON customers.userID = orders.userID
GROUP BY customers.userID, customers.username
I have two tables that I am trying to join. One contains a list of customers, the other is a list of orders. I am trying to formulate a query that will allow me to select all of the customers listed in the table customers who have at least one order in the table orders. However, I do not want to get duplicates for those customers who have multiple orders. Any suggestions how I can accomplish this?
I know this is probably a common issue, however I have no idea what this type of query would be called so that I could search for an answer. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
It's much simpler than you may think:
select distinct(customer_id) from orders;
Edit: If you actually want to get the full info on the customer,
select * from customers where customer_id in (select distinct(customer_id) from orders);
Use:
SELECT c.*
FROM CUSTOMERS c
WHERE EXISTS (SELECT NULL
FROM ORDERS o
WHERE o.custeromid = c.id)
The IN clause is an alternative, but EXISTS works better for duplicates because it returns true on the first duplicate so it doesn't process the entire table.
select customers.id, customers.name, count(orders.id)
from customers
inner join orders on orders.customer_id = customers.Id
group by customers.id, customers.name
having count(orders.id) > 0
SELECT
c.id,
c.name
FROM
customer c
INNER JOIN order o ON o.customer_id = c.id
GROUP BY
c.id,
c.name
HAVING
COUNT(o.id) >= 1
Can't remember if HAVING or GROUP BY comes first.
