Hi All,

I want to show sum of field by year(2019, 2020, 2021)

i am using query:

|inputlookup abc.csv | eval _time=strptime('date1',"%Y-%m-%d")| eval year= strftime(_time,"%Y")  | chart sum(com) as com by field1, year| addcoltotals

o/p:

field1 com 2019 2020 2021 

for this total for 2020 is correct but facing issue for 2019 & 2021

please help me to get correct solution for this.

Thank,

ND

What "issue" are you facing? Are the rows incorrectly associated with proper years? Is the sum incorrectly counted?

Oh, and instead of strptime and strftime, you could just do

| eval year=substr(date1,1,4)
