I am hoping to calculate a percentile in a calculated field, but am not able to make that work. To illustrate, if I had the 5 data points below, the 60th percentile would be 2718:
1. 4364
2. 1198
3. 2937
4. 2572
5. 1682
When using percentile calculations that I see cited from other SQL platforms, I am seeing the following syntax, but this doesn't seem to work for me within Caspio. Any ideas? In the example below, "amount" would be my field name, and "sales" would be my table name.
SELECT PERCENTILE_CONT(0.60) WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY amount)
FROM sales
