Hi all, I'm trying to put together a SQL query to present a view, that allows summaries of data to be performed in reporting tools. I have a feeling that this question has been asked before and answered, but my google-fu is failing me, so apologies in advance... I've only found questions about using RT-REST, for example (which I don't want to do).
I'm using RT 3.8.7 (yes I know it's old and it's in the pipeline to upgrade but we have a bunch of other systems that are integrated with RT and so it's not a simple "just upgrade RT" project for us. Anyway, what I want to end up with is the following fields: Tickets.EffectiveID Queues.Name Tickets.Owner Transactions.Creator Transactions.TimeTaken Transactions.Created Tickets.Status Tickets.Started Tickets.Resolved Tickets.Created Transactions.Type So i can easily point various reports at it and work from there. the sql I'm using is... SELECT Tickets.EffectiveId AS TicketID, Queues.`Name` AS Queue, Tickets.`Owner` AS OwnerID, Transactions.Creator AS TransactionCreatorID, Transactions.TimeTaken AS TimeTaken, Transactions.Created AS TransactionCreated, Tickets.`Status` AS TicketStatus, Tickets.Started AS TicketStarted, Tickets.Resolved AS TicketResolved, Tickets.Created AS TicketCreated, Transactions.Type AS TransactionType FROM ((((Tickets JOIN Transactions ON ((Transactions.ObjectId = Tickets.id))) JOIN Queues ON ((Queues.id = Tickets.Queue))))) but I'm not getting the results I expect... or even something far simpler like: SELECT Transactions.Creator, sum(Transactions.TimeTaken/60) AS TimeInHours, Month(Transactions.Created) AS TransactionMonth, Year(Transactions.Created) AS TransactionYear FROM Tickets JOIN Transactions ON Transactions.ObjectId = Tickets.id where Transactions.Created > "2013-10-01" group by Creator, Month(Transactions.Created), Year(Transactions.Created) just to try and compare the numbers... that I'm seeing with timeworked.pl... Now my problem is that the numbers I'm getting don't match those returned by REST - for example using the timeworked.pl script.. Is there a definitive SQL somewhere that I should use to return these?... and any pointers on what transaction types I should be avoiding or how to avoid double counting merged transactions I would be very grateful... Thankyou! Chris
