DecCalculate Running Total, Total of a Column and Row
Many times, you required to show information on each transaction and also keep a Running Total and Final Total like GridView in Asp.Net. In this article, I am going to explain, how can you achieve this using SQL Query in a simple and easy way.
Suppose you have the below CustomerOrders table and has the data as shown below:
CREATE TABLE CustomerOrders ( OrderID int identity, Amount Decimal(8,2), OrderDate SmallDatetime default getdate() ) Go INSERT INTO CustomerOrders(Amount) Values(120.12) INSERT INTO CustomerOrders(Amount) Values(20.12) INSERT INTO CustomerOrders(Amount) Values(10.12) INSERT INTO CustomerOrders(Amount) Values(30.12) INSERT INTO CustomerOrders(Amount) Values(40) GO SELECT * FROM CustomerOrders

Calculating Running Total
Let's see how to calculate the running total using SQL Query as given below:
select OrderID, OrderDate, CO.Amount ,(select sum(Amount) from CustomerOrders where OrderID <= CO.OrderID) 'Running Total' from CustomerOrders CO

Calculating Final Total
Let's see how to calculate the final total using ROLLUP within SQL Query as given below:
SELECT OrderID, SUM(Amount) AS Amount FROM CustomerOrders GROUP BY OrderID WITH ROLLUP

Calculating Total of All Numeric columns in a row
Let's see how to calculate the total of all numeric fields within a row using SQL Query as given below:
SELECT OrderID, Amount, SUM(OrderID+Amount) AS RowNumericColSum FROM CustomerOrders GROUP BY OrderID,Amount ORDER BY OrderID
