The answer depends on what else you are doing, but you could use something 
like this (note that you *cannot* nest AuthBy clauses):

# define AuthBy clauses

<AuthBy RADIUS>
	Identifier ForwardToProxy
	.....
</AuthBy>

<AuthBy SQL>
	Identifier SQLAccounting
	.....
	AuthSelect
	AccountingTable .....
	AcctColumnDef ....
	.....
</AuthBy>

# define Realm

<Realm .....>
	AuthByPolicy ContinueAlways
	AuthBy SQLAccounting
	AuthBy ForwardToProxy
	.....
</Realm>


The above will copy the accounting into the database and also proxy it. 

If you don't want to forward the accounting you would use 

	AuthByPolicy ContinueUntilAccept
