With @Formula the expression was not being correctly translated if it was used in a where clause.

Also, we want to be able to use @Transient with @Formula - that is, if the @Formula is somewhat expensive, the @Transient will exclude it from queries UNLESS it is explicitly included in the query (aka explicitly included in query.select(...); or query.join(..,..);

Example
public Order(){
		
	}

	
	@Id
    Integer id;

	/**
	 * Derived total amount from the order details. Needs to be explicitly included in query as Transient.
	 * Removing the Transient would mean by default it would be included in a order query.
	 * <p>
	 * NOTE: The join clause for totalAmount and totalItems is the same. If your query includes both 
	 * totalAmount and totalItems only the one join is added to the query.
	 * </p>
	 */
	@Transient
	@Formula(
		select="_b${ta}.total_amount",
		join="join (select order_id, count(*) as total_items, sum(order_qty*unit_price) as total_amount from o_order_detail group by order_id) as _b${ta} on _b${ta}.order_id = ${ta}.id")
	Double totalAmount;

	/**
	 * Derived total item count from the order details. Needs to be explicitly included in query as Transient.
	 */
	@Transient
	@Formula(
		select="_b${ta}.total_items",
		join="join (select order_id, count(*) as total_items, sum(order_qty*unit_price) as total_amount from o_order_detail group by order_id) as _b${ta} on _b${ta}.order_id = ${ta}.id")
	Integer totalItems;

And to query...
List<Order> l2 = Ebean.find(Order.class)
	.select("id, totalAmount")
	.where()
		.eq("status", Order.Status.NEW)
		.gt("totalItems", 1)
		.gt("totalAmount", 10)
	.findList();

The Transient

The @Formula means its never included in insert,update,delete.

The @Transient on the totalAmount and totalItems fields indicates that these should not be included a query by default.

However, you can specify explicitly to include the totalAmount, totalItems or both in your query as is done above.

Resulting SQL:
select o.id c0, _bo.total_amount 
from o_order o
join (select order_id, count(*) as total_items, sum(order_qty*unit_price) as total_amount from o_order_detail group by order_id) as _bo on _bo.order_id = o.id  
where o.status = ?  and _bo.total_items > ?  and _bo.total_amount > ?

This bug...

This bug is to allow the formula fields to be used in the where clause and to also allow @Transient to be used with @Formula.
