I have table:
Bonus Value
500 1400
1500 177
1800 453
1200 100
800 2500
200 50
780 740
I wanted to print the sum of column whichever is maximum.
I Tried Following:
select
case when sum(bonus)>sum(Value) then sum(bonus) end
case when sum(Value)>sum(bonus) then sum(Value) end
from emp
But i had not got the result.
Error:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 3
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'case'.
Your syntax is incorrect, CASE
keyword goes only once:
select
case when sum(bonus)>sum(Value) then sum(bonus)
else sum(Value)
end as MaxSum
from emp
Your case
statement is wrong, try this one:
select case when sum(bonus)>sum(Value) then sum(bonus) else sum(Value) end
from emp
Another way:
SELECT TOP (1) *
FROM
( SELECT SUM(Bonus) AS MaxSum, 'Bonus' AS SummedColumn FROM emp
UNION
SELECT SUM(Value), 'Value' FROM emp
) AS tmp
ORDER BY MaxSum DESC ;
