我如何聚合描述列？

Question

我编写了一个 SQL 查询来计算我们每个仓库中的库存总量，如下所示。

SELECT
  InventoryItem.ItemName as 'Part Number',
  InventoryItemDescription.ItemDescription as 'Description',
  InventoryStockTotal.UnitsInStock as 'In Stock',
  InventoryStockTotal.WarehouseCode AS 'Warehouse',
  InventoryItem.Status,
  InventoryItem.AverageCost AS 'Average Cost',
  (InventoryItem.AverageCost * UnitsInStock) AS 'Stock Value'


FROM dbo.InventoryItemDescription
INNER JOIN dbo.InventoryItem
  ON InventoryItemDescription.ItemCode = InventoryItem.ItemCode
INNER JOIN dbo.InventoryStockTotal
  ON InventoryStockTotal.ItemCode = InventoryItem.ItemCode

这给了我这样的结果

╔═════════════╦═════════════╦══════════╦═══════════════════╦════════╦══════════════╦═════════════╗
║ Part Number ║ Description ║ In Stock ║     Warehouse     ║ Status ║ Average Cost ║ Stock Value ║
╠═════════════╬═════════════╬══════════╬═══════════════════╬════════╬══════════════╬═════════════╣
║         555 ║ FILTER      ║        0 ║ BRISBANE          ║ A      ║ 8.761043     ║ 0           ║

║         555 ║ FILTER      ║        0 ║ PATTISONS         ║ A      ║ 8.761043     ║ 0           ║
║         555 ║ FILTER      ║       12 ║ QLD Warehouse (1) ║ A      ║ 8.761043     ║ 105.132516  ║
║         555 ║ FILTER      ║       22 ║ SYDNEY            ║ A      ║ 8.761043     ║ 192.742946  ║
╚═════════════╩═════════════╩══════════╩═══════════════════╩════════╩══════════════╩═════════════╝

但是，我正在尝试编写一个查询，为我提供每个零件号的总计，如下所示（如果我显示所有仓库的总计，显然仓库代码变得多余）

此查询按部件号分组。

╔═════════════╦════════════════╦══════════╦════════╦══════════════╦═════════════╗
║ Part Number ║  Description   ║ In Stock ║ Status ║ Average Cost ║ Stock Value ║
╠═════════════╬════════════════╬══════════╬════════╬══════════════╬═════════════╣
║       555   ║ WIX AIR FILTER ║      242 ║ A      ║ 8.761043     ║ 2120.172406 ║
╚═════════════╩════════════════╩══════════╩════════╩══════════════╩═════════════╝

我能够开始工作的唯一查询是这个

SELECT
  InventoryItem.ItemName as 'Part Number',
  InventoryItem
  SUM(InventoryStockTotal.UnitsInStock) as 'In Stock',
  AVG(InventoryItem.AverageCost) AS 'Average Cost',
  (AVG(InventoryItem.AverageCost) * SUM(InventoryStockTotal.UnitsInStock)) AS 'Stock Value'

FROM dbo.InventoryItemDescription
INNER JOIN dbo.InventoryItem
  ON InventoryItemDescription.ItemCode = InventoryItem.ItemCode
INNER JOIN dbo.InventoryStockTotal
  ON InventoryStockTotal.ItemCode = InventoryItem.ItemCode

  GROUP BY InventoryItem.ItemName

这给了我这个

╔═════════════╦════════════╦══════════════╦═════════════╗
║ Part Number ║  In Stock  ║ Average Cost ║ Stock Value ║
╠═════════════╬════════════╬══════════════╬═════════════╣
║         555 ║ 242.000000 ║ 8.761043     ║ 2120.172406 ║
╚═════════════╩════════════╩══════════════╩═════════════╝

问题

我还需要在结果中包含项目描述和状态代码等 table，除非我尝试将它们添加到 select 语句中 returns 错误

Column 'dbo.InventoryItemDescription.ItemDescription' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause. I understand the cause of this error because its trying to group a column that doesn't have an aggregate, but how can I get around this?

理想的解决方案

零件号的描述对于每个实例都是相同的，有什么方法可以指示 SQL 到 select 只有描述的第一个实例？

我可以使用 SELECT DISTINCT 功能吗？

Answer 1

如果每个零件号的描述始终相同，请不要费心将其添加到 group by 子句中。

SELECT
  InventoryItem.ItemName as 'Part Number',
  InventoryItemDescription.ItemDescription as 'Description',
  SUM(InventoryStockTotal.UnitsInStock) as 'In Stock',
  FROM ...
  GROUP BY InventoryItem.ItemName, InventoryItemDescription.ItemDescription

可以使用SELECT DISTINCT，与GROUP BY相同。

或者您可以利用 window 函数来计算 avg/total，同时仍然保留每个描述或仓库价值。

WITH CTE AS 
(
  SELECT
      InventoryItem.ItemName as 'Part Number',
      InventoryItemDescription.ItemDescription as 'Description',
      InventoryStockTotal.WarehouseCode AS 'Warehouse',
      InventoryItem.Status,
      SUM(InventoryStockTotal.UnitsInStock) OVER (PARTITION BY InventoryItem.ItemName) as 'In Stock',
      ROW_NUMBER() OVER() AS RowNumber
      FROM 
      ....
      // NO GROUP BY
)
SELECT colums
FROM CTE
WHERE RowNumber = 1

How could I aggregate a description column?
