I have tables that list a user's sales by Categories (each sale has at least one and may have several categories).
I can get the top categories for a user, but I need statistics for a user by both his/her top N categories and the remainder.
I've boiled the problem down to an MCVE as follows...
MCVE Data Summary:
Salesman SaleID Amount Categories -------- ------ ------ ------------------------------ 1 1 2 Service 2 2 2 Software, Support_Contract 2 3 3 Service 2 4 1 Parts, Service, Software 2 5 3 Support_Contract 2 6 4 Promo_Gift, Support_Contract 2 7 -2 Rebate, Support_Contract 3 8 2 Software, Support_Contract 3 9 3 Service 3 10 1 Parts, Software 3 11 3 Support_Contract 3 12 4 Promo_Gift, Support_Contract 3 13 -2 Rebate, Support_Contract
MCVE setup SQL:
CREATE TABLE Sales ([Salesman] int, [SaleID] int, [Amount] int);
CREATE TABLE SalesTags ([SaleID] int, [TagId] int);
CREATE TABLE Tags ([TagId] int, [TagName] varchar(100) );
INSERT INTO Sales
([Salesman], [SaleID], [Amount])
VALUES
(1, 1, 2), (2, 6, 4), (3, 10, 1),
(2, 2, 2), (2, 7, -2), (3, 11, 3),
(2, 3, 3), (3, 8, 2), (3, 12, 4),
(2, 4, 1), (3, 9, 3), (3, 13, -2),
(2, 5, 3)
;
INSERT INTO SalesTags
([SaleID], [TagId])
VALUES
(1, 3), (6, 4), (10, 1),
(2, 1), (6, 5), (10, 2),
(2, 4), (7, 4), (11, 4),
(3, 3), (7, 6), (12, 4),
(4, 1), (8, 1), (12, 5),
(4, 2), (8, 4), (13, 4),
(4, 3), (9, 3), (13, 6),
(5, 4)
;
INSERT INTO Tags
([TagId], [TagName])
VALUES
(1, 'Software'),
(2, 'Parts'),
(3, 'Service'),
(4, 'Support_Contract'),
(5, 'Promo_Gift'),
(6, 'Rebate')
;
See this SQL Fiddle, I can get the user's top N tags like:
WITH usersSales AS ( -- actual base CTE is much more complex
SELECT s.SaleID
, s.Amount
FROM Sales s
WHERE s.Salesman = 2
)
SELECT Top 3 -- N can be 3 to 10
t.TagName
, COUNT (us.SaleID) AS tagSales
, SUM (us.Amount) AS tagAmount
FROM usersSales us
INNER JOIN SalesTags st ON st.SaleID = us.SaleID
INNER JOIN Tags t ON t.TagId = st.TagId
GROUP BY t.TagName
ORDER BY tagAmount DESC
, tagSales DESC
, t.TagName
-- which reveals the user's top categories to be:
in that order, for user 2. (And Support_Contract, Promo_Gift, Software for user 3.)
But the Results Needed, for N=3, are:
User 2:
Top Category Amount Number of Sales
---------------- ------ ---------------
Support Contract 7 4
Service 4 2
Promo Gift 0 0
- All Others - 0 0
============================================
Totals 11 6
User 3:
Top Category Amount Number of Sales
---------------- ------ ---------------
Support Contract 7 4
Promo_Gift 0 0
Software 1 1
- All Others - 3 1
============================================
Totals 11 6
Where:
- All Others -
group.How do I aggregate results like that?
Note that this is running on MS SQL-Server 2017 and I can't change the table schema.
Here is one way to do it. Run the query step-by-step, CTE-by-CTE and examine intermediate results to understand how it works.
It is not the most efficient method, because I ended up joining the table to itself to eliminate sales that were summed up before, but I can't figure out how to avoid it at the moment.
WITH usersSales
AS
( -- actual base CTE is much more complex
SELECT
s.SaleID
, s.Amount
FROM Sales s
WHERE s.Salesman = 2
)
,CTE_Sums
AS
(
SELECT
t.TagName
,us.Amount
,us.SaleID
,SUM(us.Amount) OVER (PARTITION BY t.TagName) AS TagAmount
,COUNT(*) OVER (PARTITION BY t.TagName) AS TagSales
FROM
usersSales us
INNER JOIN SalesTags st ON st.SaleID = us.SaleID
INNER JOIN Tags t ON t.TagId = st.TagId
)
,CTE_Rank
AS
(
SELECT
TagName
,Amount
,SaleID
,TagAmount
,TagSales
,DENSE_RANK() OVER (ORDER BY TagAmount DESC, TagSales DESC, TagName) AS rnk
FROM CTE_Sums
)
,CTE_Final
AS
(
SELECT
Main.TagName
,Main.Amount
,Main.SaleID
,Main.TagAmount
,Main.TagSales
,Main.rnk
,ISNULL(A.FinalTagAmount, 0) AS FinalTagAmount
,A.FinalTagSales
FROM
CTE_Rank AS Main
OUTER APPLY
(
SELECT
SUM(Detail.Amount) AS FinalTagAmount
,COUNT(*) AS FinalTagSales
FROM CTE_Rank AS Detail
WHERE
Detail.rnk = Main.rnk
AND Detail.SaleID NOT IN
(
SELECT PrevRanks.SaleID
FROM CTE_Rank AS PrevRanks
WHERE PrevRanks.rnk < Detail.rnk
)
) AS A
)
SELECT
TagName
,MIN(FinalTagAmount) AS FinalTagAmount
,MIN(FinalTagSales) AS FinalTagSales
,rnk
,0 AS SortOrder
FROM CTE_Final
WHERE rnk <= 3
GROUP BY
TagName
,rnk
UNION ALL
SELECT
'- All Others -' AS TagName
,SUM(FinalTagAmount) AS FinalTagAmount
,SUM(FinalTagSales) AS FinalTagSales
,0 AS rnk
,1 AS SortOrder
FROM CTE_Final
WHERE rnk > 3
ORDER BY
SortOrder
,rnk
;
CTE_Rank
Do not group and sum up rows yet, but use window aggregates to get the rank of each tag. We'll need individual rows (SaleID
) with individual amounts later for filtering those that are in use.
+------------------+--------+--------+-----------+----------+-----+
| TagName | Amount | SaleID | TagAmount | TagSales | rnk |
+------------------+--------+--------+-----------+----------+-----+
| Support Contract | -2 | 7 | 7 | 4 | 1 |
| Support Contract | 3 | 5 | 7 | 4 | 1 |
| Support Contract | 4 | 6 | 7 | 4 | 1 |
| Support Contract | 2 | 2 | 7 | 4 | 1 |
| Service | 1 | 4 | 4 | 2 | 2 |
| Service | 3 | 3 | 4 | 2 | 2 |
| Promo Gift | 4 | 6 | 4 | 1 | 3 |
| Software | 1 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 4 |
| Software | 2 | 2 | 3 | 2 | 4 |
| Parts | 1 | 4 | 1 | 1 | 5 |
| Rebate | -2 | 7 | -2 | 1 | 6 |
+------------------+--------+--------+-----------+----------+-----+
CTE_Final
OUTER APPLY
does the main calculation with filtering of those sales that were encountered in the higher ranked tags.
+------------------+--------+--------+-----------+----------+-----+----------------+---------------+
| TagName | Amount | SaleID | TagAmount | TagSales | rnk | FinalTagAmount | FinalTagSales |
+------------------+--------+--------+-----------+----------+-----+----------------+---------------+
| Support Contract | -2 | 7 | 7 | 4 | 1 | 7 | 4 |
| Support Contract | 3 | 5 | 7 | 4 | 1 | 7 | 4 |
| Support Contract | 4 | 6 | 7 | 4 | 1 | 7 | 4 |
| Support Contract | 2 | 2 | 7 | 4 | 1 | 7 | 4 |
| Service | 1 | 4 | 4 | 2 | 2 | 4 | 2 |
| Service | 3 | 3 | 4 | 2 | 2 | 4 | 2 |
| Promo Gift | 4 | 6 | 4 | 1 | 3 | 0 | 0 |
| Software | 1 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 4 | 0 | 0 |
| Software | 2 | 2 | 3 | 2 | 4 | 0 | 0 |
| Parts | 1 | 4 | 1 | 1 | 5 | 0 | 0 |
| Rebate | -2 | 7 | -2 | 1 | 6 | 0 | 0 |
+------------------+--------+--------+-----------+----------+-----+----------------+---------------+
Query Result
Simply put together top 3 ranked tags plus all the rest.
+------------------+----------------+---------------+-----+-----------+
| TagName | FinalTagAmount | FinalTagSales | rnk | SortOrder |
+------------------+----------------+---------------+-----+-----------+
| Support Contract | 7 | 4 | 1 | 0 |
| Service | 4 | 2 | 2 | 0 |
| Promo Gift | 0 | 0 | 3 | 0 |
| - All Others - | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 |
