Hi Galil, in this case you'll want to take a look at how `values()` and `annotate()` interact with each others[1] in regard to GROUP BY.
The following should do: Call.objects.annotate( joindate=Func(F('jointime'), function='DATE') ).values('joindate').annotate( # values before annotate() specifies the GROUP BY count=Count('uniquecallid', distinct=True) ) Cheers, Simon [1] https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/topics/db/aggregation/#values Le mercredi 15 juin 2016 07:58:55 UTC-4, Galil a écrit : > > Thank you Simon, > > This func expression what was I looking for.
