Sample Solution:

-- Selecting distinct count of product IDs partitioned by SalesOrderID
SELECT DISTINCT COUNT(Productid) OVER(PARTITION BY SalesOrderid) AS ProductCount  
    ,SalesOrderid  
-- From the sales order detail table in the sales schema
FROM sales.salesorderdetail  
-- Filtering for specific sales order IDs
WHERE SalesOrderid IN (45363,45365);

Explanation:

• This SQL query retrieves the distinct count of product IDs partitioned by SalesOrderID from the salesorderdetail table in the sales schema.
• The COUNT(Productid) OVER(PARTITION BY SalesOrderid) expression calculates the count of product IDs for each distinct SalesOrderID.
• The DISTINCT keyword ensures that only unique combinations of ProductCount and SalesOrderID are returned.
• The SalesOrderid column is also selected to display the associated sales order IDs.
• The WHERE clause filters the results to include only specific sales order IDs (45363 and 45365).

Sample Output:

productcount|salesorderid|
------------+------------+
          13|       43855|
          15|       43661|
