I have an issue whereby I need to sum values from two tables where there will not always be a 1 to 1 link. i.e.

Table A link to table b and to table c. I need to sum a value in table b and a value in table c as shown below. I think because of the linkage I am getting incorrect values. i.e. if table b has 2 rows and table c has 3 then the values returned in the sum is 3 times to big.

Can anyone please suggest the correst linkage or a better way of summing the values?

select sp.part_no ISBN,
sp.c_product_code Product,
sp.catalog_desc Title,
sp.sales_price_group_id SalesGroup,
sum(ipis.qty_onhand - ipis.qty_reserved) StockQty,
sum(cois.invoiced_qty) SalesQty,
case when sum(ipis.qty_onhand - ipis.qty_reserved) < sum(cois.invoiced_qty * 3) then '*' else '' end Problem
from ifsapp.sales_part sp,
ifsapp.inventory_part_in_stock ipis,
ifsapp.cust_ord_invo_stat cois
where (sp.sales_price_group_id = upper('&sales_group') or 0 < instr(sp.sales_price_group_id,upper('&sales_group')) or '&sales_group' is null) and
(sp.c_product_code = upper('&Product') or '&Product' is null) and
(sp.part_no = upper('&ISBN') or '&ISBN' is null) and
(sp.catalog_desc = upper('&Title') or 0 < instr(sp.catalog_desc,upper('&Title')) or '&Title' is null) and
sp.part_no = cois.part_no and
sp.part_no = ipis.part_no and
sp.contract = ipis.contract and
cois.invoice_date >= add_months(TO_DATE(sysdate), -1)
group by sp.catalog_no,
sp.part_no,
sp.c_product_code,
sp.catalog_desc,
sp.sales_price_group_id
order by sp.catalog_no

Please read OraFAQ Forum Guide, especially "How to format your post?" section.
Make sure that lines of code do not exceed 80 characters when you format.
Indent the code (See SQL Formatter), use code tags and align the columns in result.
Use the "Preview Message" button to verify.
Also always post your Oracle version (4 decimals).

Regards
Michel

Post a working Test case: create table and insert statements along with the result you want with these data.
Use SQL*Plus and copy and paste what you already tried.

Also always post your Oracle version (4 decimals).
