Teradata HAVING Clause

The HAVING Clause is generally used along with the GROUP BY clause to apply more filters on the result-set.

Teradata HAVING example

The following SQL statement list the number of employee in each department. Only include those departments with more than 3 employees.

SELECT COUNT(EMP_ID),DEPARTMENT 
FROM TERADATAPOINT.EMPLOYEE
GROUP BY DEPARTMENT
HAVING COUNT(EMP_ID) >2;

Output:

Teradata HAVING Clause

Note:

GROUP BY clause cannot be used in WHERE clause. So HAVING is useful.

A SQL statement can have both the WHERE and HAVING clauses.

WHERE – filters the data before grouping.

HAVING – filters the data after grouping.
