Hi,

I’m trying to get up-to-speed with PostgreSQL and have a dumb question. I have a basic query to pull the top 5 vendors that have sent me the most bills. I would like to lump all the other vendors into a row named “Other” and get a count of all those bills excluding the top 5. Below is the basic query.

SELECT vendor_name AS vendor_name,
       count(DISTINCT inv_id) AS "# of Invoices"
FROM SpendTable
GROUP BY vendor_name
ORDER BY "# of Invoices" DESC
LIMIT 5

Thanks,
Scott
