Hey,

u have 2 possibilities ..

1:::: concatenate the tables and keep a flag field for the bucket u want to create (If u donot have common key for both tables..).

2:::: use join toget the data from 2 tables if u have any common key in both the tables

tblGROUP:
LOAD
Invoice,
invoice_date,
val,
qty,
'0 - 3 mths' as Period
FROM TABLE1
WHERE invoice_date < date(addmonths(date(monthstart(today()),'MMM-YYYY'),1)) and invoice_date >= date(addmonths(date(monthstart(today()),'MMM-YYYY'),-2)) ;

Concatenate
LOAD
order_no, // or invoice_no
Order_date, // or invoice_date
val,
qty,
'3 - 6 mths' as Period
FROM TABLE2
WHERE invoice_date < date(addmonths(date(monthstart(today()),'MMM-YYYY'),-3)) and invoice_date >= date(addmonths(date(monthstart(today()),'MMM-YYYY'),-5));

Concatenate

Etc………………

let me know how you get on,
