I have a problem with using the search field on forms with browse SQL containing group functions. This is not a big problem, and it may be nothing can be done except to exclude group functions found in browse SQL when composing the query?

e.g

browse SQL is

Code: Select all

select supplier_id, sup_name, sup_tel, sum(pur_stock), sum(if(date_format(pur_date,'%Y%m') = date_format(curdate(),'%Y%m'), pur_cost*pur_qty, 0)) from supplier
left join purchase on (supplier_id = pur_supplier_id and pur_vehicle_id is null)
group by supplier_id
order by sup_name

If I enter anything into the search field I get two entries in zzzzsys_debug:

Code: Select all

[0] : ===PDO MESSAGE===

SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1111 Invalid use of group function

===SQL===========

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM (SELECT supplier_id,sup_name,sup_tel,sum(pur_stock),sum(if(date_format(pur_date,'%Y%m') = date_format(curdate(),'%Y%m'), pur_cost*pur_qty, 0))
 from supplier left join purchase on (supplier_id = pur_supplier_id and pur_vehicle_id is null)
 WHERE 1 AND ( (CONVERT(sup_name USING utf8) LIKE "%test%" OR CONVERT(sup_tel USING utf8) LIKE "%test%" OR CONVERT(sum(pur_stock) USING utf8) LIKE "%test%" OR CONVERT(sum(if(date_format(pur_date,'%Y%m') = date_format(curdate(),'%Y%m'), pur_cost*pur_qty, 0)) USING utf8) LIKE "%test%") )
 group by supplier_id
 order by sup_name) nuTCount

Does it help to encapsule the SQL within a subquery?

Code: Select all

SELECT * FROM (
    SELECT 
        supplier_id, 
        sup_name, 
        sup_tel, 
        SUM(pur_stock), 
        SUM(IF(DATE_FORMAT(pur_date, '%Y%m') = DATE_FORMAT(CURDATE(), '%Y%m'), pur_cost * pur_qty, 0))
    FROM 
        supplier
    LEFT JOIN 
        purchase ON (supplier_id = pur_supplier_id AND pur_vehicle_id IS NULL)
    GROUP BY 
        supplier_id
) AS T 
ORDER BY 
    sup_name

Encapsulated query doesn't seem to work as I get no rows on the browse screen. The query looks OK when run against the database, so column names must be getting mangled?

Can you paste the generated SQL (Options Menu -> Form Info) here?

vario,

Perhaps you could create a VIEW for the Browse SQL and filter on that.

The SQL from Options->Form Info is:

Code: Select all

SELECT supplier_id,sup_name,sup_tel,sum(pur_stock),sum(if(date_format(pur_date,'%Y%m') = date_format(curdate(),'%Y%m'), pur_cost*pur_qty, 0))
 FROM supplier LEFT JOIN purchase ON (supplier_id = pur_supplier_id AND pur_vehicle_id IS NULL)
 WHERE 1 AND ( (CONVERT(sup_name USING utf8) LIKE "%Carlyle%" OR CONVERT(sup_tel USING utf8) LIKE "%Carlyle%" OR CONVERT(sum(pur_stock) USING utf8) LIKE "%Carlyle%" OR CONVERT(sum(if(date_format(pur_date,'%Y%m') = date_format(curdate(),'%Y%m'), pur_cost*pur_qty, 0)) USING utf8) LIKE "%Carlyle%") )
 GROUP BY supplier_id
 ORDER BY sup_name

I will try the view perhaps sometime but this isn't a big problem so low on my list of things to do!
