Обсуждение: Outer Join help please

I'm having troube doing a left outer self join on a table. The sent
column shows the number of items sent to each recipient from each
source. The received column (generated by the outer join) is incorrect
because although it is summing the number of messages by recipient,
these need to be filtered by source too.

How can I do a join on two columns in the master table?

Thanks for any help.
Rory


 recipient | source | sent | received | outstanding
-----------+--------+------+----------+-------------
 22        | 1      |    3 |        2 |           1
 23        | 1      |    1 |        1 |           0
 25        | 1      |    1 |        2 |          -1
 25        | 2      |    1 |        2 |          -1
 26        | 2      |    2 |        0 |
 27        | 2      |    3 |        0 |

SELECT t_to AS recipient,
       t_from AS sender,
       count(*) AS sent,
       sum(CASE WHEN dlr = 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS received,
       sum(CASE WHEN dlr = 1 THEN 0 ELSE 1 END) AS outstanding
  FROM dlr
 GROUP BY t_to, t_from;

gives

 recipient | sender | sent | received | outstanding
-----------+--------+------+----------+-------------
 22        | 1      |    3 |        2 |           1
 23        | 1      |    1 |        1 |           0
 25        | 1      |    1 |        1 |           0
 25        | 2      |    1 |        1 |           0
 26        | 2      |    2 |        0 |           2
 27        | 2      |    3 |        0 |           3
(6 rows)

but I'm not sure whether this is what you want.  I didn't even use a
join ...

If it meets your requirements and you are sure that dlr is always 0,
1, or NULL, then here is a simpler version:

SELECT t_to AS recipient,
       t_from AS sender,
       count(*) AS sent,
       sum(dlr) AS received,
       count(*) - sum(dlr) AS outstanding
  FROM dlr
 GROUP BY t_to, t_from;
