    Hi everyone,<br>
    <br>
    I would like to create a query that does a running total for each
    account, but I also want to show a 'phantom' row that gives the end
    of month with the last day of the month as the transaction date.<br>
    <br>
    Here's a sample query:<br>
    <pre><code><span class="syntax0"><span class="syntax8">SELECT</span> n.customer_id, n.order_id, n.order_total, 
    <span class="syntax9">COALESCE</span><span class="syntax18">(</span><span class="syntax9">SUM</span><span class="syntax18">(</span>o.order_total<span class="syntax18">)</span>,<span class="syntax5">0</span><span class="syntax18">)</span> <span class="syntax8">As</span> past_order_total
<span class="syntax8">FROM</span> orders <span class="syntax8">AS</span> n <span class="syntax9">LEFT</span> <span class="syntax8">JOIN</span> orders <span class="syntax8">AS</span> o 
    <span class="syntax8">ON</span> <span class="syntax18">(</span>o.customer_id <span class="syntax18">=</span> n.customer_id 
            <span class="syntax8">AND</span> n.order_datetime <span class="syntax18">&gt;</span> o.order_datetime<span class="syntax18">)</span>
<span class="syntax8">GROUP</span> <span class="syntax8">BY</span> n.customer_id, n.order_datetime, n.order_id, n.order_total
<span class="syntax8">ORDER</span> <span class="syntax8">BY</span> n.customer_id, n.order_datetime, n.order_id;

--- taken from <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://bit.ly/speZzs">http://bit.ly/speZzs</a;

Is there a way to have that 'phantom' row for each account?  I want to result to be ordered by customer_id, account_type.

More details:
In my situation, I have Customers and Grain types.  
I want to generate a result that will show Customer, Grain Type, Daily Avg Bal, Charge Rate, discount, Charge.  
Maybe it's not really possible. I see it a bit hard group it properly, showing only single row per customer per grain.


Many thanks,
Mark
