PU_SUM

Applies to: CELONIS 4.0 CELONIS 4.2 CELONIS 4.3 CELONIS 4.4 CELONIS 4.5 CELONIS 4.6 CELONIS 4.7

Description

Calculates the sum of the specified column for each element of the given child table.

Like the regular SUM operator, the column can either be an INT or FLOAT column. The data type of the result is the same as the input column data type.

Syntax
PU_SUM ( child_table, parent_table.column [, filter_expression] )

  • child_table: The table to which the aggregation result should be pulled. This can be:

  • parent_table.column: The column which should be aggregated for every row of the child_table.

  • filter_expression (optional): An optional filter expression to specify which values of the parent_table.column should be taken into account for the aggregation.

NULL handling

If no value in the parent table exists for the element in the child table (either because all values of the parent table are filtered out, or because no corresponding value exists in the first place), NULL will be returned. NULL values in the parent table column are treated as if the row does not exist.

Examples

[1] Calculate the sum of the case table values for each company code.

Query

Column1

"companyDetail"."companyCode"

Column2

PU_SUM ( "companyDetail" , "caseTable"."value" )

Input

Output

[2] PU functions can be used in a FILTER. In this example, the company codes are filtered such that the corresponding sum of case table values is smaller than 800.

Query

Filter

FILTER PU_SUM ( "companyDetail" , "caseTable"."value" ) < 800;

Column1

"companyDetail"."companyCode"

Output

[3] PU functions can be used inside another aggregation function. In this example, the maximum value of all accumulated case table values for each company code is calculated.

Query

Column1

MAX ( PU_SUM ( "companyDetail" , "caseTable"."value" ) )

Input

Output

caseTable

caseId : INT

companyCode : STRING

value : INT

[4] Calculate the sum of the case table values for each company code. Only consider cases with an ID larger than 2.

Query

Column1

"companyDetail"."companyCode"

Column2

PU_SUM ( "companyDetail" , "caseTable"."value" , "caseTable"."caseID" > 2 )

Input

Output

[5] Calculate the sum of the case table values for each company code. Only consider cases with an ID larger than 3. All case table values for companyCode '001' are filtered out, which means that in this case, NULL is returned.

Query

Column1

"companyDetail"."companyCode"

Column2

PU_SUM ( "companyDetail" , "caseTable"."value" , "caseTable"."caseID" > 3 )

Input

[6] Example over three tables: For each entry in table B, calculate the sum of the values that are larger than 100 in table C. Tables B and C do not have a direct connection, but are connected via table A.

Query

Column2

PU_SUM ( "B" , "C"."VALUE" , "C"."VALUE" > 100 )

Input

Output
