Hello thereI
have a Oracle AP Invoice:Payment:Check Join Question

From this query:

SELECT VENDOR_NAME SUPPLIER, I.INVOICE_NUM, I.INVOICE_DATE INVOICE_DATE,

     to_char(I.CREATION_DATE, 'DD-MON-YYYY') INVOICE_CREATION_DATE,
     D.DISTRIBUTION_LINE_NUMBER DIST_NUMBER, D.AMOUNT DIST_AMT,
     C.AMOUNT DIST_AMT_PAID, D.DIST_CODE_COMBINATION_ID GL_CCID
FROM AP_INVOICES_ALL I, AP_INVOICE_DISTRIBUTIONS_ALL D,
     AP_INVOICE_PAYMENTS P, AP_CHECKS C

WHERE I.INVOICE_ID = D.INVOICE_ID
AND INVOICE_NUM = '999999' -- small recordset for test

AND I.INVOICE_ID = P.INVOICE_ID
AND P.CHECK_ID = C.CHECK_ID
AND I.CREATION_DATE > nvl(TO_DATE(:p_create_date, 'DD-MON-YYYY'),

'30-SEP-00')

AND I.INVOICE_DATE < nvl(TO_DATE(:p_invoice_date, 'DD-MON-YYYY'),
'01-OCT-00')
The result set appears like this:

BOOKS|990999|10/14/99|999999|10/13/99|10/14/99|1|244.64|1019.25|66789
                                     This col--------------------^^^^^^^

I am trying to get it to appear like this: ACADEMIC

BOOKS|990999|10/14/99|999999|10/13/99|10/14/99|1|244.64|244.64|66789
                                     This col--------------------^^^^^^

Is there a way to present the DIST_AMT_PAID as NOT the total check amount, but simply the dist_amt that has been paid? I guess I am asking where would I make the join, and I have examined the pertinent tables and cannot see an obvious answer.

My hunch is to NOT perform a calculation to obtain the result, as that seems like not the right way to go about it, but maybe that's wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
