Question : SQL query on a financial reporting table

Please find the attached SQL code we have been using.

As you can see, its a View we are using. The Query is pulling the firts five columns straight from a table but the sixth column is a select statement to group a bunch of ReportRows.

The sixth column is trying to group the Report Rows 1,2,3,4,5,6,7  which have a SubtotalGroup as NULL and when it reaches Row 8, it knows that SubTotalGroup value is 1 and NLFinancialReportLineTypeID = 1. so the Query returns number 8 for all the above rows.

But the issue we are having is,
If a row does not satisy the condition of Subtotal =1 and NLFinancialReportLineTypeID = 1
then it should print "NULL" in that row and move onto the next row.
So the 9th Row in the sixth coulmn should be printing "NULL" and then the Rows 10, 11,12 and 13 are doing fine.

Could you please assist me amending this Query, please ask me for more details if needed.

SELECT     NLFinancialReportLayoutID, NLFinancialReportLineTypeID, Title, ReportRow, SubtotalGroup,
(SELECT     MIN(ReportRow) AS Expr1
 FROM        dbo.NLFinancialReportRow AS S2
WHERE      (SubtotalGroup = 1) AND
 (ReportRow >= dbo.NLFinancialReportRow.ReportRow)) AS G1
 FROM         dbo.NLFinancialReportRow

Answer : SQL query on a financial reporting table

Well, think you kinda knew subconsiously maybe, other wise why did you include the different layoutID ? It was pretty much the only difference between your data and mine :)

So, well done yourself :) And likewise, enjoyed the challenge, the question, and working with you.

Here is the completed query :

1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6: 7: 8: 9: 10: 11: 12: 13: 14: 15: 16: 17: 18: 19: 20: 21: 22:
