Groovy Examples in ADF (count and sum examples using groovy)

Hello everyone
In this post i will show you how to perform count and sum using groovy



Note:- For this post i am using Department and Employees tables of HR Schema (oracle database 11g)

Examples
1-count employees department wise (adf.object.EmployeesView.count("EmployeeId"))
2-department wise employees salary sum (adf.object.EmployeesView.sum("Salary"))


1-count employees department wise
    As we know there is relationship  between Departments and Employees table (DepartmentID refer in Employees Table)
this relation in ADF is known as View Link 
so by using this view link we can access EmployeesViewObjecs attributes in DepartmentViewObject
we just need accessor name to access attributes
to get accessor name we need to perform the following setps

1-open view link definition file
2-click on Edit accessors
3- copy the employees view object accessor name

4-go to Departments view object and create a new transient attribute
5-and append  adf.object (it means the current object ) before accessor name and .count  (count is the mehtod name) after accessor name
following is the complete groovy
     adf.object.EmployeesView.count("EmployeeId")

2-department wise employees salary sum
    Secondly if you want department wise salary sum
   you need to perform the following steps
   1-perform first 3 steps that describe above
   2-create transient attribute in Department view object and set Type BigDecimal
   2- write the following groovy in Expression of transient attribute

    adf.object.EmployeesView.sum("Salary")
