I am really stumped on this one and it could be because I have looked at it way to long. I have 4 tables ( invoice_job , invoice_payments , invoice_credits and invoice_fc ) that I am pulling information from to return a value. My code looks like this:
<?php
//DATABASE CONNECTION
include_once("global/dbinfo.inc.php");
//GETTING BID AND ADDITIONAL AMOUNTS
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM invoice_job WHERE id LIKE '194' AND jobid LIKE '53'");
while ($result = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
$bid = $result['bidamount'];
$additional = $result['additionalamount'];
echo "<strong>Bid Amount:</strong><br />";
echo "$";
echo number_format($bid, 2, '.', ',');
echo "<br /><br />";
echo "<strong>Additional Amount:</strong><br />";
echo "$";
echo number_format($additional, 2, '.', ',');
++$i;
}
echo "<br /><br />";
//GETTING TOTAL PAID
$query = mysql_query("SELECT SUM(amount) FROM invoice_payments WHERE jobid LIKE '53'");
while ($result = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
$paid = $result['SUM(amount)'];
echo "<strong>Total Payments:</strong><br />";
echo "$";
echo number_format($paid, 2, '.', ',');
++$i;
}
echo "<br /><br />" ;
//GETTING TOTAL CREDITS
$query = mysql_query("SELECT SUM(amount) FROM invoice_credits WHERE jobid LIKE '53'");
while ($result = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
$credits = $result['SUM(amount)'];
echo "<strong>Total Credits:</strong><br />";
echo "$";
echo number_format($credits, 2, '.', ',');
++$i;
}
echo "<br /><br />" ;
//GETTING TOTAL FINANCE CHARGES
$query = mysql_query("SELECT SUM(fcamount) FROM invoice_fc WHERE jobid LIKE '53'");
while ($result = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
$fc = $result['SUM(fcamount)'];
echo "<strong>Total Finance Charges:</strong><br />";
echo "$";
if ($fc == "") {echo "0.00";}
else {echo number_format($fc, 2, '.', ',');}
++$i;
}
echo "<br /><br />" ;
//SHOWING TOTAL AMOUNT NOW DUE
$totaldue = (($bid+$additional+$fc)-($paid+$credits));
echo "<strong>Total Due:</strong><br />";
echo "$";
echo $totaldue;
?>
The problem is that the output looks like this:
Bid Amount:
$7,945.53Additional Amount:
$1,100.00Total Payments:
$8,682.83Total Credits:
$362.70Total Finance Charges:
$0.00Total Due:
$-1.8189894035459E-012
But when you do the math the Total Due should come to 0.00
I am sooooooo lost here as to why this is happening, when I hard code the values rather than calling from the database everything works. I am assuming that there is a problem with the way I am formatting the data output or querying the databases. I have two questions specifically.
1: What am I doing wrong?
2: Is there an easier way to be pulling and showing this information?
Thanks in advance,
