I am trying to figure out how to get the sum of systems_score column by systems. The data model is below:

systems               systems_score

System A                     20
System A                     10
System A                     0
System B                    20
System B                    20
System B                    20
System C                    10
System C                    15
System C                     0

How do I return the sum for each Systems - like below?

systems              systems_score_total

System A                          30
System B                          60
System C                          25

Hey vnravikumar!

I tried your SPL and I got the following:

systems              systems_score_total

 System A                          
 System B                          
 System C                          

The systems_score total shows up blank. =(
