Using just three criteria:
COMPANY equal company number (just one)
APVENMAST.VEN-CLASS equal class (just one)
APPAYMENT.CHECK-DATE = greater than or equal too a given date

Table is large and query runs for about an hour and a half. Didn't know if someone knew if there was an index I could select that might speed this up, at least a little bit.


Currently no Index\Key Value set in query.


Thanks!

VEN-CLASS is a field in the table APPAYMENT, so if you're just looking for totals and don't need any detail regarding the vendor:

SELECT APPAYMENT.*
FROM APPAYMENT
WHERE APPAYMENT.COMPANY = 15
AND APPAYMENT.VEN_CLASS = 'RAP'
AND APPAYMENT.CHECK_DATE >= '01JUL2017'

Got over million records in our APPAYMENT table it it returns results in seconds.

If you need detail from table APVENMAST, the following should work. (note, we only have one vendor group)

SELECT APCOMPANY.COMPANY,
APVENMAST.VENDOR_GROUP,
APPAYMENT.VENDOR,
APVENMAST.VENDOR_VNAME,
APPAYMENT.VEN_CLASS,
APPAYMENT.CHECK_DATE,
APPAYMENT.BANK_CHK_AMT
FROM APCOMPANY, APVENMAST, APPAYMENT
WHERE APCOMPANY.VENDOR_GROUP = APVENMAST.VENDOR_GROUP
AND APVENMAST.VEN_CLASS = APPAYMENT.VEN_CLASS
AND APVENMAST.VENDOR = APPAYMENT.VENDOR
AND APCOMPANY.COMPANY = 15
AND APPAYMENT.VEN_CLASS = 'RAP'
AND APPAYMENT.CHECK_DATE >= '01JUL2017'

Vendor group is important if you're joining to apvenmast. You can either hardcode or join thru apcompany.
Thanks for using the LawsonGuru.com forums!
