Table: employee
CREATE TABLE `employee` ( `emp_id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `emp_name` varchar(10) character set utf8 NOT NULL, `emp_salary` int(11) NOT NULL, `emp_startDate` datetime NOT NULL, `dep_name` varchar(50) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`emp_id`) ) |

Query to use GROUP BY:
SELECT dep_name, SUM(emp_salary) FROM employee GROUP BY dep_name; |
The above query sums the employee salary having same department name and shows it in one row. you get the following output:
