Hi
Sorry about that, here is an example of what I am doing and what I would
like to achieve.
Create table rcaowm (rom_owner varchar(7), rom_name varchar(30));
Create unique index rcaowm_key1 on rcaowm (rom_owner);
Insert into rcaowm values ('OOOOOOO', 'Owners Name');
Create table rcaowt (rot_owner varchar(7), rot_date int4, rot_tramt
decimal);
Create index rcaowt_key1 on rcaowt (rot_owner);
Insert into rcaowt values ('OOOOOOO', 20070801, -3500.0);
Insert into rcaowt values ('OOOOOOO', 20070801, -500.0);
Insert into rcaowt values ('OOOOOOO', 20070801, 399.0);
Create table rcatnm (rtm_owner varchar(7), rtm_tenant varchar(7),
rtm_name varchar(30));
Create unique index rcatnm_key1 on rcatnm (rtm_owner, rtm_tenant);
Insert into rcatnm values ('OOOOOOO', 'TTTTTTT', 'Tenants Name');
Create table rcatnt (rtt_owner varchar(7), rtt_tenant varchar(7),
rtt_date int4, rtt_tramt decimal);
Create index rcatnt_key1 on rcatnt (rtt_owner, rtt_tenant);
Insert into rcatnt values ('OOOOOOO', 'TTTTTTT', 20070801, 3500.0);
Insert into rcatnt values ('OOOOOOO', 'TTTTTTT', 20070801, 500.0);
Select rom_name as "Owner_Name", rtm_name as "Tenant_Name",
sum(rot_tramt) as "Sum_Owner_Value" , sum(rtt_tramt) as
"Sum_Tenant_Value" from rcaowm join rcaowt on (rom_owner = rot_owner)
join rcatnt on (rom_owner = rtt_owner) join (select rtm_tenant, rtm_name
from rcatnm) as tenants on (rtm_tenant = rtt_tenant) group by rom_name,
rtm_name;
This query returns:
Owner_Name | Tenant_Name | Sum_Owner_Value | Sum_Tenant_Value
-------------+--------------+-----------------+------------------
Owners Name | Tenants Name | -7202.0 | 12000.0
I would like to return:
Owner_Name | Tenant_Name | Sum_Owner_Value | Sum_Tenant_Value
-------------+--------------+-----------------+------------------
Owners Name | Tenants Name | -3601.0 | 4000.0
