How can I use a SELECT statement to extract information from financial reports?

171    Asked by ChloeBurgess in SQL Server , Asked on Dec 5, 2023

 I was tasked with retrieving specific data from a complex database for a financial report. The report contains details such as customer names, transaction amounts,and dates. How can I construct an SQL “SELECT” statement to extract these pieces of information effectively?

To retrieve the specified data from the complex financial reports by using the SELCT 1 SQL command, you can consider the following example:-

SELECT company_name, SUM(revenue) AS total_revenue
FROM financial_reports
JOIN companies ON financial_reports.company_id = companies.company_id
WHERE financial_reports.date BETWEEN ‘2023-01-01’ AND ‘2023-12-31’
GROUP BY company_name
ORDER BY total_revenue DESC;

Modify these configurations according to your schema of the database and the information process from your financial reports by using SQL.
