When using any aggregate function in a SELECT statement, you need to specify
all columns without an aggregate function within the GROUP BY clause.
You only listed the columns from the first table.

Betreff: Use of MAX?

HI I want to use MAX in this SQL. Because we have some cases where
Duplicates are entered. IN this particular sales data, there is no check in
the application.

So I have a reporting tool using a view and would need to remove these
dupes. The dupes will be manifest in these 5 fields and the time is the only
one that will differ (possibly the date) so If I select on MAX I would get
a distinct: So far it is not allowing, it gives an error:

"SQL0122 - Column OHPTTC or expression in SELECT list not valid."
The dupes appear here: an example: We want only the 001 row but only 1 of
the next 2
