Gosh I feel like such a newb, but here is what I have so far:

Select Count(Distinct Job.JobID) as JobsRun,
Count (If (Job.SaleIsSold = 'True')) as JobsSold,
From Job
Where Job.PrimaryEmp = '294' and Job.SchedDate between '12/27/12' and '1/16/13'

I need to return two columns basically, 1 that shows the total of Jobs Run (JobID) and one that shows how many sold (SaleIsSold = True)

This is from a SQL Server 2008 server. Not sure what other information is needed.

The syntax would be like shown below.
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT JOB.JobID) AS JobsRun,
       COUNT (DISTINCT CASE WHEN Job.SaleIsSold = 'True' THEN JOB.JobId END) as JobsSold
FROM   JOB
WHERE  JOB.PrimaryEmp = '294'
       AND JOB.SchedDate BETWEEN '12/27/12' AND '1/16/13'
Couple of things to note:

1. I added a distinct clause in the second count as well - not sure if your business logic calls for that or not.

2. Is SaleIsSold a char or varchar type of column? If it is, you are ok, but if it is a bit column, instead of comparing to 'True' you should compare to 1.

i would have written date range as below

JOB.SchedDate >= '20121227' 
AND JOB.SchedDate <= '20130116'


if SchedDate contains time part it shoulde be


JOB.SchedDate >= '20121227' 
AND JOB.SchedDate < '20130117'
