GROUPING() with a Single Column in a ROLLUP

  1. The GROUPING() function accepts a column and returns 0 or 1.
  2. GROUPING() returns 1 when the column value is null, and returns 0 when the column value is non-null.
  3. GROUPING() is only used in queries that use ROLLUP or CUBE.
  4. GROUPING() is useful when you want to display a value when a null would otherwise be returned.

Using the GROUP_ID() Function

GROUP_ID() function can remove duplicate rows returned by a GROUP BY clause.

GROUP_ID() doesn"t accept any parameters.

If n duplicates exist for a particular grouping, GROUP_ID returns numbers in the range 0 to n-1.
