Hello, I'm using Proc SQL and have the following statement where I'm deriving a count field. My problem is I am trying to sum up the data and have fields I'm grouping by. Is it possible to SUM the case statement because I don't want each record splitting out on me and I have lots of other fields summing up?
CASE WHEN CODE = 'X' THEN -1 ELSE 1 END as COUNT,
Not working:
SUM (CASE WHEN CODE = 'X' THEN -1 ELSE 1 END as COUNT),
Your close parenthesis is in the wrong spot. Try:
SUM (CASE WHEN CODE = 'X' THEN -1 ELSE 1 END) as COUNT
