A. 1 SELECT RowNumber() OVER(PARTITION BY PostalCode ORDER BY SalesYTd DESC) AS "Ranking",
2 p.LastName, s.SalesYTD, a.PostalCode
3 FROM Sales.SalesPerson AS a
etc
On line 1 add: RowNumber
One line 1 add: PARTITION BY
ROW_NUMBER() numbers the output of a result set. More specifically, returns the sequential
number of a row within a partition of a result set, starting at 1 for the first row in each partition.
SYNTAX for OVER:
OVER (
[ <PARTITION BY clause> ]
[ <ORDER BY clause> ]
[ <ROW or RANGE clause> ]
)
Example: Using the OVER clause with the ROW_NUMBER function
The following example returns the ROW_NUMBER for sales representatives based on their assigned
sales quota.
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY SUM(SalesAmountQuota) DESC) AS RowNumber,
FirstName, LastName, CONVERT(varchar(13), SUM(SalesAmountQuota),1) AS SalesQuota FROM
dbo.DimEmployee AS e INNER JOIN dbo.FactSalesQuota AS sq ON e.EmployeeKey = sq.EmployeeKey
WHERE e.SalesPersonFlag = 1 GROUP BY LastName, FirstName; Here is a partial result set.
