create index lala on "StudentFeesPayment"(Extract(Month from
"ReceiptMonthYear"))
explain Select max("ReceiptNo") from "StudentFeesPayment" where
Extract(Month from "ReceiptMonthYear")=4;
Aggregate (cost=14.97..14.98 rows=1 width=4)
-> Bitmap Heap Scan on "StudentFeesPayment" (cost=4.33..14.94
rows=10 width=4)
Recheck Cond: (date_part('month'::text,
("ReceiptMonthYear")::timestamp without time zone) = 4::double
precision)
-> Bitmap Index Scan on lala (cost=0.00..4.33 rows=10 width=0)
Index Cond: (date_part('month'::text,
("ReceiptMonthYear")::timestamp without time zone) = 4::double
precision)
