How do I get correct grouping when a column not should be grouped. The query gets a wrong result
CREATE TABLE inv
(invid int, co int4, type varchar(1), sum int4);
INSERT INTO inv
(invid, co, type, sum)
VALUES
(1, 1,'J',1000),
(2, 1,'O',2000),
(3, 2,'O',3000),
(4, 3,'J',4000),
(5, 4,'J',1000),
(6, 2,'O',2000),
(7, 1,'J',1000)
;
CREATE TABLE co
(coid int, name varchar(30));
INSERT INTO co
(coid, name)
VALUES
(1,'Volvo'),
(2,'BMW'),
(3,'Microsoft'),
(4,'Apple')
;
Using a case when gives wrong result when grouped.
SELECT name,type,
CASE
WHEN type ='J' THEN 100
WHEN type ='O' THEN 200
ELSE 0 END AS cost,
sum(sum)
FROM inv
LEFT JOIN co ON coid=co
GROUP BY name,type
Volvo appears twice because invoices are in two types.
Volvo J 100 2000
Apple J 100 1000
Microsoft J 100 4000
BMW O 200 5000
Volvo O 200 2000
The question is simple: How can I group only by company?
I know that similar questions have been asked before, but I could not find any with case involved.
Expected output (type is not needed):
Volvo 300 4000
Apple 100 1000
Microsoft 100 4000
BMW 200 5000

select
name,
sum ( case
when type = 'J' then 100
when type = 'O' then 200
else 0 end
) as cost,
sum("sum") as "sum"
from inv left join co on coid=co
group by name
