Using MySQL to generate daily sales reports with filled gaps, grouped by currency
- by Shane O'Grady
I'm trying to create what I think is a relatively basic report for an online store, using MySQL 5.1.45
The store can receive payment in multiple currencies.
I have created some sample tables with data and am trying to generate a straightforward tabular result set grouped by date and currency so that I can graph these figures.
I want to see each currency that is available per date, with a 0 in the result if there were no sales in that currency for that day.
If I can get that to work I want to do the same but also grouped by product id.
In the sample data I have provided there are only 3 currencies and 2 product ids, but in practice there can be any number of each.
I can correctly group by date, but then when I add a grouping by currency my query does not return what I want.
I based my work off this article.
My reporting query, grouped only by date:
SELECT calendar.datefield AS date,
IFNULL(SUM(orders.order_value),0) AS total_value
FROM orders
RIGHT JOIN calendar ON (DATE(orders.order_date) = calendar.datefield)
WHERE (calendar.datefield BETWEEN (SELECT MIN(DATE(order_date)) FROM orders) AND (SELECT MAX(DATE(order_date)) FROM orders))
GROUP BY date
Now grouped by date and currency:
SELECT calendar.datefield AS date, orders.currency_id,
IFNULL(SUM(orders.order_value),0) AS total_value
FROM orders
RIGHT JOIN calendar ON (DATE(orders.order_date) = calendar.datefield)
WHERE (calendar.datefield BETWEEN (SELECT MIN(DATE(order_date)) FROM orders) AND (SELECT MAX(DATE(order_date)) FROM orders))
GROUP BY date, orders.currency_id
The results I am getting (grouped by date and currency):
+------------+-------------+-------------+
| date | currency_id | total_value |
+------------+-------------+-------------+
| 2009-08-15 | 3 | 81.94 |
| 2009-08-15 | 45 | 25.00 |
| 2009-08-15 | 49 | 122.60 |
| 2009-08-16 | NULL | 0.00 |
| 2009-08-17 | 45 | 25.00 |
| 2009-08-17 | 49 | 122.60 |
| 2009-08-18 | 3 | 81.94 |
| 2009-08-18 | 49 | 245.20 |
+------------+-------------+-------------+
