I think you are looking for something like this
select x,
case when x = 71008 then ‘71007’
else x
end
from table......

SELECT * FROM test;

a
---
1
2
3

SELECT a,
CASE WHEN a=1 THEN 'one'
WHEN a=2 THEN 'two'
ELSE 'other'
END
FROM test;

a | case
---+-------
1 | one
2 | two
3 | other

Hi

I need help, I need to change every result with x being 71008 to be 71007 in the select query below.

SELECT x, sum( value ) as value from table where ……..

Results will show as follows but if the query finds x as 71008 then it must make it 71007 instead. Is this possible?

71015 | 101240.00
71008 | -19351.34
