Order By month and year in sql with sum

Question

I have a stored procedure and the select statement is:

SELECT     { fn MONTHNAME(OrderDate) } AS MonthName, YEAR(OrderDate) AS Year, SUM(TotalValue) AS Profi         


        

Answer 1

I think you should use order by clause at the end

SELECT     { fn MONTHNAME(OrderDate) } AS MonthName, YEAR(OrderDate) AS Year, SUM(TotalValue) AS Profits
FROM         [Order]
WHERE     (YEAR(OrderDate) = @year)
GROUP BY { fn MONTHNAME(OrderDate) }, YEAR(OrderDate) 
ORDER BY { fn MONTH(OrderDate) }, YEAR(OrderDate)

or

you can do like this

SELECT     CASE { fn MONTH(OrderDate) } 
            when 0 then 'JAN'
            when 1 then 'FEB'
            when 2 then 'MAR'
            when 3 then 'APR'
            when 4 then 'MAY'
            when 5 then 'JUN'
            when 6 then 'JUL'
            when 7 then 'AUG'
            when 8 then 'SEP'
            when 9 then 'OCT'
            when 10 then 'NOV'
            when 11 then 'DEC'
           END
      AS MonthName, YEAR(OrderDate) AS Year, SUM(TotalValue) AS Profits
    FROM         [Order]
    WHERE     (YEAR(OrderDate) = @year)
    GROUP BY { fn MONTH(OrderDate) }, YEAR(OrderDate) 
    ORDER BY { fn MONTH(OrderDate) }, YEAR(OrderDate)
