I have trying to do a SELECT query....not an UPDATE or INSERT or DELETE.
I have three tables.
- The customers table
- The invoices table
- The invoice_items table
I want to run a query that will show me every invoice. Each invoice can have only ONE customer and MANY items...hence the existence of invoice_items
My current query looks like this
SELECT i.order_date, c.name, thedata.info from invoices i inner join customers c ON (i.customer = c.id) right join ( select x.order, group_concat( concat(x.itemname,' ', x.itemdesc) separator "\n" ) as info from invoice_items x ) thedata on (i.id = thedata.order)
When I run this query, I receive one row that contains, one customer, one invoice, and a list of any an every item regardless of invoice id or customer...???
+---------------------+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| order_date | name | info |

My goal is to receive this same list but show all customers along with THEIR items.
What am I doing wrong?
Here are the schemas, for those that need them.
