Case Statement with AND function in SQL

I am using below query to mark the two fileds as 'Exclude'

 

SELECT *, CASE WHEN `account_number` = 20160001 and `document_number` = 57290 and `distribution_date` = '12/29/2018' then 'exclude'
WHEN `account_number` = 40200001 and `document_number` = 57290 and `distribution_date` = '12/29/2018' then 'exclude'
else 'Include' end as `GL FILTER` from `table`

 

However, I get the following result: the GL FIlter is 'Include' I want it to be 'Exclude'

Could anyone please help.

 

Thanks,

    I'm going to guess the issue has to do with your date column. If distribution date is seen as a date field and not text, you need to update your conditions to look like this:

    SELECT *, CASE WHEN `account_number` = 20160001 and `document_number` = 57290 and `distribution_date` = '2018-12-29' then 'exclude'
    WHEN `account_number` = 40200001 and `document_number` = 57290 and `distribution_date` = '2018-12-29' then 'exclude'
    else 'Include' end as `GL FILTER` from `table`

    If it's a datetime, then you'll need to format for that instead. 

     

    Hopefully that gets you what you're after.

     

    Best of luck,
