Hello everyone.
I have a customer purchase table that keeps track of
transaction details. I'm looking sum up total spent
by each customer and classify each customer based on
which products they bought.
Data looks like...
account_id, date, product_id, sale_price
-----------------------------------------
cust1, 03/21/2005, prod1, 50
cust1, 03/22/2005, prod4, 35
cust1, 05/08/2005, prod2, 50
cust2, 04/21/2005, prod16, 20
cust3, 04/16/2005, prod1, 50
etc......
Setup:
I'm picturing a Venn Diagram in my head but I need
help with the decision logic to classify each
customer.
Example:
Category A: Prod1, Prod2
Category B: Prod3, Prod4
Category C: All products Not in Class A or Class B
-A customer who has bought Prod1, Prod2 would be in
the A only category.
-A customer who has bought Prod1, Prod3 would be in
the Class A&B category
-A customer who has bought Prod18 would be in the C
category
-A customer who has bought Prod4, Prod16 would be in
the B&C category
-A customer who has bought Prod1, Prod4, Prod15 would
be in the A&B&C category
-etc...
Then for each comination of categories (7 in total?),
i will need of number of accounts in that category and
total spent by those accounts.
Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
-Vince
