Operations in a Select query
The query editor allows you to perform operations on the values of an item. The possible operations are: - the sum of item values.
- the mean of item values.
- the calculation of the minimum value for all the item values.
- the calculation of the maximum value for all the item values.
These operations are performed: - on all the records selected by the query.
- on sub-sets of records (automatically grouped by the query).
For example, you want to find out: - the total amount of orders placed by the customers living in Seattle.
- the order with the smallest amount.
- the average sum spent by the customer named Darwin.
- ...
When to define the operations? The operations are defined when creating the query. However, you have the ability to add, modify or delete the operations performed in a query. For more details, see Operations in a query: add and delete. Caution: If the query result is displayed in a report, the operations to perform on the item values must be defined during report description.
