I made my own schema based on your query as I don't have any sample data but see if this works.

What i did is created crap data for 12 users and you'll notice that this query should exclude user2 and user12 i believe.

If this isn't what you are looking for, use improve question link in your question to update it with sample schema and a few example data items.

SQL

--SELECT user,Subcategory,count(orderID) "Count" FROM Order group by user ,Subcategory with Rollup ORDER BY 1
