Order by with dual

Mrudula BandaruMay 24 2017 — edited May 24 2017

Hi,

I am trying to do union all on dual and select statement with order by ERP column.

select 'PD','ERP' ERP,'ACCOUNT','RECORD','AMT' from dual

UNION ALL

select MONTH,ERP,ACCOUNT,RECORD,AMOUNT from AC_BK_TAB

ORDER BY ERP

This gives result in Asc order by ERP. But I have ERPs starting from character 'Bxxx' and hence header record which has 'ERP' is coming in the middle of the record set.

Can I have order by on ERP on the second query itself having header as first record.

Thanks in advance
