I want to be able to use COALESCE to get one of two values.
I have timesheet.earnings_rate , and template.ordinary_earnings_rate_id
I have timesheet.earnings_rate , and template.ordinary_earnings_rate_id
COALESCE(timesheet.earnings_rate, template.ordinary_earnings_rate_id):timesheet.earnings_rategives me
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'template.ordinary_earnings_rate_id) AS `timesheet.earnings_rate`, `employee`.`va' at line 1I assume it's breaking on the comma between the two fields, but looking at the code read_data_output.php isn't helping me😟

1. Commas in parameters need to be surrounded by spaces as in [param1 , param2]
2. Need to use model.field, can't use field on its own
In this way, more complicated queries can be used, like
