Total sales per month

Question

I think this is common, is it?

If you have a table with SALES {Customer_ID, Price, SmallDateTime date}. How do you report all sales per month?

Answer 1

  SELECT YEAR(date) as SalesYear,
         MONTH(date) as SalesMonth,
         SUM(Price) AS TotalSales
    FROM Sales
GROUP BY YEAR(date), MONTH(date)
ORDER BY YEAR(date), MONTH(date)
