Please see the below table:

pastedImage_0.png

The first column is the account, the second column is the sub-account, the third column is the description for the combined account with the sub-account.

I need to change the information in the fourth column to show the description located in the '00' sub account for each account For example, in the column labeled "'00' Description", I need to show all sub-accounts of 900654 with  the description 'Space Rental'.

I need to show all sub-accounts of 900760 with  the description 'Administrative Overhead', etc. .

Thanks in advance for your help.

Bob

         casw when accountnumber=900760 then 'Administrative Overhead' else accountnumber end

    That's the one-time solution ... USE of information drives design.  Spend the effort and do it right; then it will perform better and is much more usable.
