    sum(p.defer_sales)+sum(p.revolve_sales) total_sales,

    count(p.acct_id) as accounts,

    (sum(p.defer_sales)+sum(p.revolve_sales))/count(acct_id) as sales_per_account

Hi @charlenemx1022 

 

Are you tryng to output to legacy excel file? Its not your query, its erroring on writing to the file. There's a thread here that may be of interest (they were getting the identical error) - https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Desktop-Discussions/Error-when-using-Excel-Legacy-...
