SQL for On-Time Shipment Rates

MediumSQL · PostgreSQL

Problem

Write a SQL query to identify the top 10 warehouses by on-time shipment rate over the last 90 days, including total shipments, on-time shipments, and on-time percentage.

Use the warehouses and shipments tables. Treat a shipment as on time when delivered_at is not null and is on or before promised_delivery_at.

Output

  1. One row per qualifying warehouse, with warehouse_name, total_shipments, on_time_shipments, and on_time_percentage.
  2. Include only shipments from the last 90 days and warehouses with at least one shipment.
  3. Sort by on-time percentage descending, then total shipments descending, then warehouse ID ascending. Return no more than 10 rows.
