Field "Quantity" compared to field "ExtendedPrice" with alias "Sales" (less than arithmetic) (average operator)

CASE WHEN ([dbo].[Invoices].[ExtendedPrice]<AVG(CAST([dbo].[Invoices].[Quantity] AS float))) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS 'Sales'

Field "Quantity" compared to field "ExtendedPrice" with alias "Sales" (equals arithmetic) (group operator)

CASE WHEN ([dbo].[Invoices].[ExtendedPrice]=[dbo].[Invoices].[Quantity]) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS 'Sales'

Field "Quantity" compared to field "ExtendedPrice" with alias "Sales" (greater than arithmetic) (sum operator)

CASE WHEN ([dbo].[Invoices].[ExtendedPrice]>SUM([dbo].[Invoices].[Quantity])) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS 'Sales'
