Understanding the Problem: SQL “GROUP BY” Multiple Rows Ignoring One The question at hand involves a SQL query that is trying to sum multiple discount values for customers, but encounters an issue when it also tries to check if today’s date falls within a specified range. Background Information SQL, or Structured Query Language, is a standard language used for managing relational databases. The GROUP BY clause in SQL is used to group rows that have the same values in one or more columns, and then perform operations on these groups.

The code you provided can be improved. Here’s an updated version: SELECT user_id, date, day_hours_worked AS current_hourly_rate, LAG(day_hours_worked, 1) OVER (PARTITION BY user_id ORDER BY date) AS previous_hourly_rate, LAG(day_hours_worked, 2) OVER (PARTITION BY user_id ORDER BY date) AS hourly_rate_2_days_ago, LAG(day_hours_worked, 3) OVER (PARTITION BY user_id ORDER BY date) AS hourly_rate_3_days_ago, LAG(day_hours_worked, 4) OVER (PARTITION BY user_id ORDER BY date) AS hourly_rate_4_days_ago, LAG(day_hours_worked, 5) OVER (PARTITION BY user_id ORDER BY date) AS hourly_rate_5_days_ago, LAG(day_hours_worked, 6) OVER (PARTITION BY user_id ORDER BY date) AS hourly_rate_6_days_ago FROM data d ORDER BY user_id, date; This query will get the previous n days of hourly rates for each user.
