Question

CREATE TABLE test
entrynum NUMBER (19),
datefield TIMESTAMP (3),
type NUMBER (2),
invno varchar2(100),
entrytype number,
amount NUMBER (30, 4),
appliedentryno VARCHAR2 (4000 BYTE)
Insert into test
(entrynum, amount, type, invno, entrytype, datefield, appliedentryno)
Values
(1111, 41, 2, 'aaaa', 2,
TO_DATE('8/18/2005'), 0);
Insert into test
(entrynum, amount, type, invno, entrytype, datefield, appliedentryno)
Values
(1111, -405.3, 1, 'bbbb', 2,
TO_DATE('8/18/2005'), 2222);
Insert into test
(entrynum, amount, type, invno, entrytype, datefield, appliedentryno)
Values
(1111, 364.3, 6, 'cccc', 2,
TO_DATE('8/23/2005'), 3333);
Insert into test
(entrynum, amount, type, invno, entrytype, datefield, appliedentryno)
Values
(2222, -405.3, 1, 'bbbb', 1,
TO_DATE('8/18/2005)', 0);
Insert into test
(entrynum, amount, type, invno, entrytype, datefield, appliedentryno)
Values
(2222, 405.3, 1, 'bbbb', 2,
TO_DATE('8/18/2005)', 2222);
Insert into test
(entrynum, amount, type, invno, entrytype, datefield, appliedentryno)
Values
(3333, 364.3, 6, 'cccc', 1,
TO_DATE('8/23/2005)',  0);
Insert into test
(entrynum, amount, type, invno, entrytype, datefield, appliedentryno)
Values
(3333, -364.3, 6, 'cccc', 2,
TO_DATE('8/23/2005)',3333);
COMMIT;
case 1 when datefield<= '8/18/2005'
then my output should be
entrynum     amount            type        datefield             amountdue          unappliedamount
1111            41                   2           8/18/2005              -364.3                   0
1111          -405.3               1           8/18/2005              -364.3                   0
case 3 when datefield<= '8/23/2005'
then my output should be
entrynum     amount            type        datefield             amountdue          unappliedamount
11111            41                  2           8/18/2005             0                             0
1111            -405.3              1           8/18/2005             0                             0
1111            364.3               6           8/23/2005             0                             0
