Top Customers by Sales Revenue

EasySQL · PostgreSQL

Problem

You are given a single sales table from a reporting dataset. Write a PostgreSQL query to return the top 10 customers by total revenue. Revenue should be calculated as the sum of sale_amount for each customer, ignoring rows where sale_amount is NULL. Return the customer name and total revenue, sorted from highest to lowest revenue.

Output details

  • Return columns named customer_name and total_revenue, in that order.
  • For equal revenues, sort by customer_name ascending.
  • Include rows whose customer_name is NULL as a customer group.
