To modify your SQL query to sort the results by the sum of quantity_sold
in ascending order, you can add an ORDER BY
clause at the end of your existing query. Here’s how you can structure it:
sql
SELECT product_id, SUM(quantity_sold) AS smax
FROM Purgina_Product
GROUP BY product_id
ORDER BY smax ASC;
Explanation:
- SELECT product_id, SUM(quantity_sold) AS smax: This part selects the
product_id
and calculates the total quantity sold for each product, labeling it assmax
. - FROM Purgina_Product: This specifies the table from which to retrieve the data.
- GROUP BY product_id: This groups the results by
product_id
, allowing theSUM
function to calculate the total quantity sold for each product. - ORDER BY smax ASC: This orders the results by the calculated sum (
smax
) in ascending order.
This query will give you a list of products along with their total quantities sold, sorted from the lowest to the highest total.
