SELECT query with CASE condition and SUM()

Question

I\'m currently using these sql statements. My table has the field CPaymentType which contains \"Cash\" or \"Check\". I can sum up the amount of payments by executing 2 SQL s

Answer 1

I don't think you need a case statement. You just need to update your where clause and make sure you have correct parentheses to group the clauses.

SELECT Sum(CAMount) as PaymentAmount 
from TableOrderPayment 
where (CStatus = 'Active' AND CPaymentType = 'Cash') 
OR (CStatus = 'Active' and CPaymentType = 'Check' and CDate<=SYSDATETIME())

The answers posted before mine assume that CDate<=SYSDATETIME() is also appropriate for Cash payment type as well. I think I split mine out so it only looks for that clause for check payments.
