I am getting division by zero on a calculated field ( sum(sales) is 0 ) and I can't find a way around this. I figured out you can't use an aggregate in a where, and using having the parser must (obviously) evaluate the select fields before considering teh having clause.

Does anyone have a way around this?  Thanks!

select
        type,
        sum(sales),
        sum(cost),
        (sum(sales) * sum(cost) / sum(sales)) * 100
from test
group by 1
having sum(sales) != 0
