I have a table in Firebird DB - see the picture.



I need to know the up-to-date location information (LOCATION) of each device. Every device has unique serial number (SERIAL_NUMBER). The latest location is the row with highest all counter values (COUNTER1...COUNTER6).
I tried the following query, but it has to be complemented to get what I need. Unfortunately I don't have idea how to modify it.



SELECT LOCATION 
FROM TABLE
WHERE SERIAL_NUMBER IN (SELECT DISTINCT SERIAL_NUMBER
FROM TABLE)
ORDER BY COUNTER1, COUNTER2, COUNTER3, COUNTER4, COUNTER5, COUNTER6

  • Can you explain what you mean by "highest all counter values"? What would be the correct location for LSE3400308 if the row 204750 was missing, and why?

  • Please make desirable query output, so we would understand the logic.
