Sum for multiple date ranges in a single call?

Question

I have the following query:

SELECT 
   SUM(\"balance_transactions\".\"fee\") AS sum_id 
   FROM \"balance_transactions\" 
   JOIN charges ON balance_transactions         


        

Answer 1

Here's a untested procedure you can used.

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE sum_fees(v_start IN Date, v_end in Date) IS

BEGIN
  SELECT 
   SUM("balance_transactions"."fee") AS sum_id 
   FROM "balance_transactions" 
       JOIN charges ON balance_transactions.source = charges.balance_id 
   WHERE "balance_transactions"."account_id" = 6 
      AND (balance_transactions.type = 'charge' 
      AND charges.refunded = false 
      AND charges.invoice IS NOT NULL) 
      AND ("balance_transactions"."created" BETWEEN v_start AND v_end);
END;

Then call the procedure with your range date.

Answer 2

if i understand well you want to reutilize the date query. For this the part of the query that can be reutilized is the daily part. I mean:

SELECT 
   SUM("balance_transactions"."fee") AS sum_id 
   FROM "balance_transactions" 
   JOIN charges ON balance_transactions.source = charges.balance_id 
   WHERE "balance_transactions"."account_id" = 6 
      AND (balance_transactions.type = 'charge' 
      AND charges.refunded = false 
      AND charges.invoice IS NOT NULL) 
      AND ("balance_transactions"."created" = 'yyyy-mm-dd');

Assuming that your "created" field is just date and not timestamp, and if the data of past days doesn't change, you can dump this query to a table:

insert into sum_table
SELECT 
   "balance_transactions"."created" balance_created
   SUM("balance_transactions"."fee") AS balance_fee 
   FROM "balance_transactions" 
   JOIN charges ON balance_transactions.source = charges.balance_id 
   WHERE "balance_transactions"."account_id" = 6 
      AND (balance_transactions.type = 'charge' 
      AND charges.refunded = false 
      AND charges.invoice IS NOT NULL) 
   group by "balance_transactions"."created"
;

and then change your main query to:

SELECT 
   SUM(balance_fee) AS sum_id 
   FROM sum_table where balance_created between ('2013-12-20' AND '2014-01-19');

Another optimization is to eliminate the between because usually it does not uses indexes, and if you have lots of different dates it can be slow.

Better this way:

SELECT 
   SUM(balance_fee) AS sum_id 
   FROM sum_table where balance_created in ('2013-12-20', '2013-12-21', '2013-12-22' ... '2014-01-19');

But for this you have to create the SQL directly in the client application (ej. DAO)

Hope this helps.

Well coming from a SQL Server background I would change your where clause to

...
AND (
      "balance_transactions"."created" BETWEEN '2013-12-20' AND '2014-01-19'
      OR
      "balance_transactions"."created" BETWEEN '2013-12-21' AND '2014-01-20'
      OR
      "balance_transactions"."created" BETWEEN '2013-12-23' AND '2014-01-22'
      OR
      "balance_transactions"."created" BETWEEN '2013-12-24' AND '2014-01-23'
    );

Just be sure you have a good index on those dates! :)

Answer 4

Assuming I understand your request correctly I think what you need is something along these lines:

SELECT "periods"."start_date", 
       "periods"."end_date", 
       SUM(CASE WHEN "balance_transactions"."created" BETWEEN "periods"."start_date" AND "periods"."end_date" THEN "balance_transactions"."fee" ELSE 0.00 END) AS period_sum
  FROM "balance_transactions" 
  JOIN charges ON balance_transactions.source = charges.balance_id 
  JOIN ( SELECT '2013-12-20'::date as start_date, '2014-01-19'::date as end_date UNION ALL
         SELECT '2013-12-21'::date as start_date, '2014-01-20'::date as end_date UNION ALL
         SELECT '2013-12-22'::date as start_date, '2014-01-21'::date as end_date UNION ALL
         SELECT '2013-12-23'::date as start_date, '2014-01-22'::date as end_date UNION ALL
         SELECT '2013-12-24'::date as start_date, '2014-01-23'::date as end_date
         ) as periods
    ON "balance_transactions"."created" BETWEEN "periods"."start_date" AND "periods"."end_date"
 WHERE "balance_transactions"."account_id" = 6 
   AND "balance_transactions"."type" = 'charge' 
   AND "charges"."refunded" = false 
   AND "charges"."invoice" IS NOT NULL
 GROUP BY "periods"."start_date", "periods"."end_date"

This should return you all the periods you're interested in in one single resultset. Since the query is 'generated' on the fly in your front-end you can add as many rows to the periods part as you want.

Edit: with some trial and error I managed to get it working [in sqlFiddle][1] and updated the syntax above accordingly.

Answer 5

This will return all the month ranges' sum between a given date and today.

Tuples output - SQL Fiddle

select distinct on (s.d)
    s.d as "date",
    sum(bt.fee) over (
        partition by daterange(s.d, (s.d + interval '1 month')::date, '[]')
    ) as sum_id
from
    balance_transactions bt
    inner join
    charges on bt.source = charges.balance_id
    right join
    (
        select d::date as d
        from generate_series (
            '2013-12-20'::date,
            current_date,
            interval '1 day'
        ) s(d)
    ) s on s.d = bt.created
where
    bt.account_id = 6
    and bt.type = 'charge'
    and charges.refunded = false
    and charges.invoice is not null
order by s.d

Array output. Does not work on SQL Fiddle but works in my desktop.

select array_agg(("date", sum_id)) as arr_sum_id
from (
    select distinct on (s.d)
        s.d as "date",
        sum(bt.fee) over (
            partition by daterange(s.d, (s.d + interval '1 month')::date, '[]')
        ) as sum_id
    from
        balance_transactions bt
        inner join
        charges on bt.source = charges.balance_id
        right join
        (
            select d::date as d
            from generate_series (
                '2013-12-20'::date,
                current_date,
                interval '1 day'
            ) s(d)
        ) s on s.d = bt.created
    where
        bt.account_id = 6
        and bt.type = 'charge'
        and charges.refunded = false
        and charges.invoice is not null
    order by s.d
) s

SELECT periods.start_date, 
     periods.end_date, 
     SUM(fee) AS Period_Sum
FROM "balance_transactions" 
JOIN charges ON balance_transactions.source = charges.balance_id 
JOIN
(SELECT CAST('2013-12-20' AS DATE) AS start_date, CAST('2014-01-19' AS DATE) AS end_date UNION     ALL
 SELECT  CAST('2013-12-21' AS DATE),CAST('2014-01-20'  AS DATE) UNION ALL
 SELECT  CAST('2013-12-22' AS DATE),  CAST('2014-01-21' AS DATE) UNION ALL
 SELECT CAST('2013-12-23' AS DATE),  CAST('2014-01-22' AS DATE) UNION ALL
 SELECT  CAST('2013-12-24' AS DATE), CAST('2014-01-23' AS DATE)) as periods
ON "balance_transactions"."created" BETWEEN periods.start_date AND periods.end_date
WHERE "balance_transactions"."account_id" = 6 
AND (balance_transactions.type = 'charge' 
AND charges.refunded = false 
AND charges.invoice IS NOT NULL) 
GROUP BY periods.start_date, periods.end_date
