Multiple Orders With NULL Handling

MediumSQL · PostgreSQL

Problem

Write a SQL query to identify customers who ordered more than once and handle NULL values in orders.

Use the customers and orders tables. Treat NULL order amounts as zero, exclude orders with NULL customer IDs, and display Unknown when a customer's name is NULL.

Output

  1. One row per customer with more than one valid order.
  2. Columns: customer_id, customer_name, order_count, and total_order_value.
  3. Sort by customer_id in ascending order.
