GROUP BY clause
Use the GROUP BY clause to group data by values.
GROUP BY is an optional clause used to group rows that have the same values for all columns and expressions in the list.
To output an aggregation for each group, include an aggregate or selector function in the SELECT statement.
When GROUP BY appears in a query, the SELECT list can only use columns that appear in the GROUP BY list
or in aggregate expressions.
Group by aliases
GROUP BYcan use column aliases that are defined in theSELECTclause.GROUP BYwon’t use an aliased value if the alias is the same as the original column name.GROUP BYuses the original value of the column, not the transformed, aliased value. We recommended using column ordinals in in theGROUP BYclause to group by transformed values and maintain the alias identifier.
