Question of the Day

Using Outer Joins

I have this data in a SQL Server 2019 database:

Customer table
CustomerID CustomerName
1          Steve
2          Andy
3          Brian
4          Allen
5          Devin
6          Sally

OrderHeader table
OrderID CustomerID OrderDate
1       1          2024-02-01
2       1          2024-03-01
3       3          2024-04-01
4       4          2024-05-01
6       4          2024-05-01
7       3          2024-06-07
8       2          2024-04-07
I want a list of all customers and their order counts for a period of time, including zero orders. If I run this query, how many rows are returned?
SELECT 
  c.CustomerName, COUNT(oh.OrderID)
 FROM dbo.Customer AS c
LEFT JOIN dbo.OrderHeader AS oh ON oh.CustomerID = c.CustomerID
WHERE oh.Orderdate > '2024/04/01'
GROUP BY c.CustomerName
