in order      FROM  amp  JOINs determine  amp  filter rows   WHERE more filters on the rows   GROUP BY combines those rows into groups   HAVING filters groups   ORDER BY arranges the remaining rows groups   LIMIT filters on the remaining rows groups

WHERE is first  then you GROUP the result of the query  and last but not least HAVING-clause is taken to filter the grouped result  This is the  logical  order  I don t know how this is technically implemented in the engine

I think it is implemented in the engine as Matthias said  WHERE  GROUP BY  HAVING  Was trying to find a reference online that lists the entire sequence  i e   SELECT  comes right down at the bottom   but I can t find it  It was detailed in a  Inside Microsoft SQL Server 2005  book I read not that long ago  by Solid Quality Learning  Edit  Found a link  http   blogs x2line com al archive 2007 06 30 3187 aspx

This is the SQL Order of execution of a Query   You can check order of execution with examples from this article  For you question below lines might be helpful and directly got from this article    GROUP BY -- gt  The remaining rows after the WHERE constraints are applied are then grouped based on common values in the column specified in the GROUP BY clause  As a result of the grouping  there will only be as many rows as there are unique values in that column  Implicitly  this means that you should only need to use this when you have aggregate functions in your query      HAVING -- gt  If the query has a GROUP BY clause  then the constraints in the HAVING clause are then applied to the grouped rows  discard the grouped rows that don t satisfy the constraint  Like the WHERE clause  aliases are also not accessible from this step in most databases    References -  SQL Order of Operations  recommended  SQL Lesson 12  Order of execution of a Query SQL Query Order of Execution What Is the Order of Execution of an SQL Query

Think about what you need to do if you wish to implement    WHERE  Its need to execute the JOIN operations  GROUP BY  You specify Group by to  group  the results on the join  then it has to after the JOIN operation  after the WHERE usage  HAVING  HAVING is for filtering as GROUP BY expressions says  Then  it is executed after the GROUP BY    The order is WHERE  GROUP BY and HAVING
