MySQL Multiple counts in one query with case

Question

Good day,

I have compiled the following query.

SELECT
    COUNT(CASE WHEN `booking_creationdate` LIKE \'2020-01-31%\' THEN 1 END) AS 2020-01-31,
    COUN         


        

Answer 1

I guess there is problem with quotes in query : Try below:

SELECT
    COUNT(CASE WHEN booking_creationdate LIKE '2020-01-31%' THEN 1 END) AS "2020-01-31",
    COUNT(CASE WHEN booking_creationdate LIKE '2020-02-05%' THEN 1 END) AS "2020-02-05"
FROM bookingstable AND booking_location = 4

Answer 2

- isn't allowed in identifiers unless the identifier is enclosed in back ticks. So instead of

... AS 2020-01-31

write

... AS `2020-01-31`

and analog for all other cases. Or use another alias without -.

Side note: It seems like booking_creationdate is a string. That's the wrong data type. Use some date/time data type.
