Sample Query

Once the data has been loaded into the database, the following queries should return a preview of the data:

SELECT
    u.user_name AS student_name,
    ou.name AS org_unit_name,
    go.name AS grade_object_name,
    CASE
        WHEN gr.points_denominator = 0
        THEN 0
        ELSE ROUND(gr.points_numerator / gr.points_denominator, 2)
    END AS grade
FROM grade_results gr

INNER JOIN users u
ON gr.user_id = u.user_id

INNER JOIN org_units ou
ON gr.org_unit_id = ou.org_unit_id

INNER JOIN grade_objects go
ON gr.grade_object_id = go.grade_object_id

LIMIT 50;
SELECT
    u.first_name AS first_name,
    u.last_name AS last_name,
    u.user_name AS user_name,
    ue.role_name AS enrolled_role_name,
    ou.name AS org_unit_name,
    ue.enrollment_date AS enrollment_date
FROM user_enrollments ue

INNER JOIN users u
ON ue.user_id = u.user_id

INNER JOIN org_units ou
ON ue.org_unit_id = ou.org_unit_id

LIMIT 50;
