Keep a running total
DROP TABLE transact
CREATE TABLE transact( whn DATE, description VARCHAR(20), amount INTEGER ); INSERT INTO transact VALUES ((2006,11,01),'Wages',50); INSERT INTO transact VALUES ((2006,11,02),'Company Store',-10); INSERT INTO transact VALUES ((2006,11,03),'Company Store',-10); INSERT INTO transact VALUES ((2006,11,04),'Company Store',-10); INSERT INTO transact VALUES ((2006,11,05),'Company Store',-10); INSERT INTO transact VALUES ((2006,11,06),'Company Store',-10);
To calculate a running total a table needs to be joined to itself, each version can be called table x and table y.
SELECT x.whn, x.description, x.amount, SUM(y.amount) AS balance FROM transact x JOIN transact y ON (x.whn>=y.whn) GROUP BY x.whn, x.description, x.amount
If you want the money IN and money OUT to be separate a CASE expression can be used.
SELECT w AS dte, d AS description, CASE WHEN (a>=0) THEN a ELSE NULL END AS moneyIN, CASE WHEN (a<0) THEN a ELSE NULL END AS moneyOUT, balance FROM (SELECT x.whn AS w, x.description AS d, x.amount AS a, SUM(y.amount) AS balance FROM transact x JOIN transact y ON (x.whn>=y.whn) GROUP BY x.whn, x.description, x.amount) t
