    Hi Mohit,

    You can use aggregate functions here. Use field in Group By for criteria of comparison.

    Thanks

    Hello Mohit,

    Salesforce does not allow direct field to field comparison in SOQL query.

    To achieve this you may create a formula field that will compare fields and return a value (like true or false) which you may use in a WHERE clause.

    So for the above query, you could create a formula field on User object with return type Text e.g. NameCompare, with the formula

    IF(User.FirstName != User.LastName, 'true', 'false')
