What it does

SQL Code Description

Query Overview

This SQL query retrieves distinct rows from a table named Process that meet a specific condition based on the value of the MetalType column.

Column Selection

The query selects four columns from the Process table:

• PartNumber: The unique identifier for each part.
• MaterialCost: The cost associated with the material used in the process.
• LaborCost: The cost associated with labor costs incurred during the process.
• PartCost: The total cost of the part, which is likely calculated by summing up the material and labor costs.

Filtering Condition

The query filters rows based on a specific condition:

• WHERE (Process.MetalType = "8110879")

This condition only includes rows where the value in the MetalType column matches the string literal "8110879".

DISTINCTROW Clause

The DISTINCTROW clause is used to ensure that each row returned by the query contains unique values for all selected columns. This means that if two rows have the same values for PartNumber, MaterialCost, LaborCost, and PartCost, they will be included only once in the result set.

Table Name

The query operates on a table named Process.

Assumptions

This code assumes that:

• The table Process exists in the database.
• The columns MetalType, MaterialCost, LaborCost, and PartCost exist in the Process table.
• The data type of the MetalType column is compatible with string literals.

Example Use Case

This query can be used to retrieve a list of parts that use a specific metal type, along with their respective material, labor, and part costs. The result set can then be used for further analysis or processing in an application.
