This one came up with a parser error near '*' but I don't understand it enough
to debug it.

This one ran, but the count column had the same value in every row - the total
count for the table.
I've managed it using an intermediate view. I've also extended it to show
everything I need - see below. I'd still like to hear from anyone who could
tell me how I can do this without the intermediate view tho'
create table roster ( -- roster definition table - holding jobs to be done
rodate date not null,
rogid int4 references diagrams(gid), -- diagram
rogsid int4 references jobtypes(jid), -- jobtype
rorequired int4, -- essential staff
rooptional int4, -- optional staff
primary key (rodate, rogid, rogsid)
);
create table roster_staff ( -- people on the roster
rsdate date not null,
rsgid int4 references diagrams(gid), -- diagram
rsgsid int4 references jobtypes(jid), -- jobtype
rssid int4 references staff(sid), -- staff id.
constraint r2 foreign key (rsdate,rsgid,rsgsid) references roster
(rodate,rogid,rogsid)
);
create view roster_tally as select rsdate, rsgid, rsgsid, count(*) as rocount from roster_staff group by rsdate,
rsgid,rsgsid;
create view roster_details as select r.*, coalesce(t.rocount,0) as rocount, coalesce(a.rocount,0) as
roavail from roster r left outer join roster_tally t on r.rodate = t.rsdate and
r.rogid = t.rsgid and r.rogsid = t.rsgsid left outer join roster_tally a on r.rodate = a.rsdate and
a.rsgid is null and r.rogsid = a.rsgsid;
nymr=# select * from roster_details where rocount < rorequired and roavail >
0; rodate | rogid | rogsid | rorequired | rooptional | rocount | roavail
------------+-------+--------+------------+------------+---------+---------2002-01-01 | 12 | 4 | 1 |
0 | 0 | 1
(1 row)
