Converting PostgreSQL to MySQL

I am following a tutorial on how to find recurring transactions in a bank statement dataset. I have all the data needed, but I have issues getting the queries to work with MySQL. Any idea on how to convert this to MySQL?

WITH transactions_with_date_diff AS (
SELECT  
    ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY description ORDER BY accounting_date),
    accounting_date - LAG(accounting_date) OVER(PARTITION BY description ORDER BY accounting_date) AS date_diff,
    LAST_VALUE(amount) OVER(PARTITION BY description ORDER BY accounting_date) AS latest_amount,
    *
FROM transactions
)

SELECT
description,
COUNT(*) AS transactions_count,
MIN(accounting_date) AS subscription_started,
MAX(accounting_date) AS latest_transaction,
SUM(amount) AS total_amount
FROM transactions_with_date_diff
WHERE
date_diff IS NOT NULL
AND date_diff BETWEEN 25 AND 35
GROUP BY 1
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
ORDER BY 2 DESC

The error is:

Query 1 ERROR: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '*
    FROM transactions
    )

    SELECT
    description,
    COUNT(*) AS trans' at line 6

Update

I adjusted the SQL query based on feedback, and providing example data. Now I’m getting a different error message.

Query:

WITH transactions_with_date_diff AS (
    SELECT
        *,
        ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY description ORDER BY accounting_date),
        accounting_date - LAG(accounting_date) OVER(PARTITION BY description ORDER BY accounting_date) AS date_diff,
        LAST_VALUE(amount) OVER(PARTITION BY description ORDER BY accounting_date) AS latest_amount
    FROM transactions
)

SELECT
    description,
    COUNT(*) AS transactions_count,
    MIN(accounting_date) AS subscription_started,
    MAX(accounting_date) AS latest_transaction,
    SUM(amount) AS total_amount
FROM transactions_with_date_diff
WHERE
    date_diff IS NOT NULL
    AND date_diff BETWEEN 25 AND 35
GROUP BY 1
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
ORDER BY 2 DESC;

Returning the following error:

Query 1 ERROR: Can't group on 'transactions_count'

Sample table data:

id	accounting_date	description	amount
1	2020-12-31	APPLE.COM/BILL	-24.03
2	2021-01-05	ALIEXPRESS.COM ALIEXPRESS	-33
3	2021-01-11	MICROSOFT*XBOX	-399.60

Answer

This query should run in both MySQL and Postgres:

WITH transactions_with_date_diff AS (
      SELECT t.*,
            ( t.accounting_date - LAG(t.accounting_date) OVER (PARTITION BY t.description ORDER BY t.accounting_date) ) AS date_diff,
            LAST_VALUE(t.amount) OVER (PARTITION BY t.description ORDER BY t.accounting_date) AS latest_amount
      FROM transactions t
     )
SELECT tdd.description,
       COUNT(*) AS transactions_count,
       MIN(tdd.accounting_date) AS subscription_started,
       MAX(tdd.accounting_date) AS latest_transaction,
       SUM(tdd.amount) AS total_amount
FROM transactions_with_date_diff tdd
WHERE tdd.date_diff BETWEEN 25 AND 35
GROUP BY tdd.description
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
ORDER BY transactions_count DESC;

This is, in fact, Standard SQL and should run in just about any database (assuming the functionality is supported. Note the changes:

• No unnamed columns in the CTE. I just removed the ROW_NUMBER().
• All table references have aliases
• The GROUP BY and ORDER BY clauses does not use positional notation.
• The NOT NULL comparison is redundant. The BETWEEN does not return TRUE for NULL values.
