Re: Clean up shop database

Odd...gives me the same result....

Tried another approach as the ordered is known where to start
from....but still the same:

select p.productid as id, p.name_de as name
from product p, orderitems i,orders
where p.productid = i.orderitems2productid
and i.orderitems2orderid = orders.orderid
and orders.orderid < 14483
and p.pieces < 1
and p.active = 't'
group by id
order by id desc

Still lists products after January 1st 2021...but I know what is going
on....

For example the query above returns as the first product id 47387:

id name
47387 Carpet 70x120cm
47373 Mug Mynte Lavender

Now when I look for order items where this product is:

select o.orderid, o.orderdate, i.orderitemsid, p.productid
from orders o, orderitems i, product p
where p.productid = 47387
and p.productid = i.orderitems2productid
and o.orderid = i.orderitems2orderid

It gives me:

orderid orderdate orderitemsid productid
19157 2021-02-08 88304 47387
17600 2020-10-13 81281 47387
14462 2019-12-28 67561 47387

So the initial query somehow gives all products that have been ordered
at least before January 1st 2021
but not only before that date.
