This same QuerySet was working on 4.1.X and prior versions and stopped
working on 4.2.X:
{{{
annotated_users = users_qs.annotate(
total_things=Subquery(
OtherModel.objects.filter(user_id=OuterRef("pk")).annotate(
total_objs=F("total")
).values("total_objs")
)
)
annotated_users.aggregate(
sum_total_objs=Sum("total_things"),
avg_conversion_rate=Case(
When(
sum_total_objs=0,
then=0,
),
default=Round(
(Sum("sum_total_confirmed_objs") /
Sum("sum_total_objs")) * 100, 2
),
output_field=FloatField(),
)
)
}}}
As you can see `sum_total_objs` is an aggregated field that is also used
on a second field to calculate the conversion rate. To avoid a zero
division problem, we were using a Case-When clause over that field. It
works well on any 4.1 and prior versions but stopped working since 4.2,
raising a `FieldError` like:
`Cannot resolve keyword 'sum_total_objs' into field`
Thanks for the support!
