Hi i want to display id from a table having a condition that if id is null then id=300 else max(id)+1 as id from table .

i tried this with case when statement as follows

select case when (conductor_id is null)then 300 else MAX(conductor_id)+1 end as conductor_id from conductormaster
i got the error as

Column 'conductormaster.conductor_id' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.
how to solve this

Regards

Baiju

0	You may use following query: select CASE WHEN MAX(conductor_id) IS NULL THEN 5000 ELSE MAX(conductor_id)+1 END as conductor_id from conductormaster Klbaiju, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

0	Add OVER() clause next to MAX() function or Add GROUP BY clause for Conducter_id at the end of the query... select case when (conductor_id is null)then 300 else MAX(conductor_id) OVER() +1 end as conductor_id from conductormaster select case when (conductor_id is null)then 300 else MAX(conductor_id) +1 end as conductor_id from conductormaster GROUP BY conducter_id NOTE: Choose either of the above solution based on your requirement. It depends on the result which you wanted to display...

select case when (conductor_id is null)then 300 else MAX(conductor_id)  +1 end as conductor_id from conductormaster GROUP BY conducter_id
