Glad you were able to get something to help. If the 3913 is coming from the base table, then, yes, lateral is definitely what you want. In case you were still curious about this method, its probably a parenthesis problem as I predicted. I've removed a probable extra one after the "values".
select npdsdt, npdedt, npdamt, npdsts, npdtno, npdabl, npdnph, npdnpd, nphnab,
amount, adjust,
npdamt + adjust - amount as avail
from dktnphpf, dktnpdpf
cross join lateral
(values(select sum(ntramt) from dktntrpf where ntrnpd = 3913 and ntrtty =
'UDD')) L1(amount)
cross join lateral
(values(select sum(ntramt) from dktntrpf where ntrnpd = 3913 and ntrtty =
'ADJ')) L2(adjust)
where nphcoy = 1 and nphnab = 'ND0001' and nphnph = npdnph;

Hi Darren,
While Birgitta has provided 3 solutions that work I am always keen to look at other options.
The sub-select does actually refer to the parent table although I have coded the value of 3913 but this value is also in field npdnpd.
I was making some changes to an enquiry and while developing the sql I was minimising the data returned for testing and debugging.
I tried your code and it errors on L1(amount)
select npdsdt, npdedt, npdamt, npdsts, npdtno, npdabl, npdnph, npdnpd, nphnab,
amount, adjust,
npdamt + adjust - amount as avail
from dktnphpf, dktnpdpf
cross join lateral
(values((select sum(ntramt) from dktntrpf where ntrnpd = 3913 and ntrtty =
'UDD')) L1(amount)
cross join lateral
(values((select sum(ntramt) from dktntrpf where ntrnpd = 3913 and ntrtty =
'ADJ')) L2(adjust)
where nphcoy = 1 and nphnab = 'ND0001' and nphnph = npdnph;
SQL State: 42601
Vendor Code: -104
Message: [SQL0104] Token L1 was not valid.

While a CTE gets it done, a lateral table is more elegant and straightforward for this purpose. I don't have the tables, so, I could not validate the syntax. Hopefully my parenthesis line up, but, it gives you an idea.
select npdsdt, npdedt, npdamt, npdsts, npdtno, npdabl, npdnph, npdnpd, nphnab,
amount, adjust,
npdamt + adjust - amount as avail
from dktnphpf, dktnpdpf
cross join lateral
(values((select sum(ntramt) from dktntrpf where ntrnpd = 3913 and ntrtty =
'UDD')) L1(amount)
cross join lateral
(values((select sum(ntramt) from dktntrpf where ntrnpd = 3913 and ntrtty =
'ADJ')) L2(adjust)
where nphcoy = 1 and nphnab = 'ND0001' and nphnph = npdnph;

Hi,
I have the following SQL
select npdsdt, npdedt, npdamt, npdsts, npdtno, npdabl, npdnph, npdnpd, nphnab,
(select sum(ntramt) from dktntrpf where ntrnpd = 3913 and ntrtty =
'UDD') as amount,
(select sum(ntramt) from dktntrpf where ntrnpd = 3913 and ntrtty =
'ADJ') as adjust,
npdamt + adjust - amount as avail
from dktnphpf, dktnpdpf
where nphcoy = 1 and nphnab = 'ND0001' and nphnph = npdnph;
I am running it in iACS
It fails indicating the variable "adjust" is not found.
I am obviously not using the correct terms when searching google as I can't find an example of how to use the results or a sub select.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks
Don
