Calculate Elapsed Time Between Dates And Exclude A Time Span.
Dec 18, 2007
I need a formula to calculate the time (let's say in minutes) between two dates/times.
The problem is that I have to exclude the time between 06 PM and 06 AM and also exclude the time in the weekend (Saturday and Sunday).
I will use this in a couple of reports made in Reporting Services.
If anyone have an algoritm that could be modified for this and is willing to share this I would be very grateful.
Many thanks!

I am trying to calculate the time difference between the value in the row and the min value in the table. So say the min value in the table is 2014-05-29 14:44:17.713. (This is the start time of the test.) Now say the test ends at 2014-05-29 17:10:17.010. There are many rows recorded during that start and end time, for each row created a time stamp is created. I am trying to calculate the elapsed time and have it as a row in the results.
min(timestamp) - timestamp(value in row) = elapsed time for that test where Channel = '273'
Here is the table DDL
CREATE DATABASE SpecTest; USE SpecTest GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Spec1]( [Spec1ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [Channel] [int] NOT NULL,
Ok, so I have some horribly convuluted SQL that I would love to optomize. I'm not happy leaving it in it's current state, that's for sure!
I'm currently working on our test bed servers, so obviously my stats are out because of the "crap-ness" (yes, that's the technical term) of the hardware, but still, it should NEVER need to take this long!!
Basically, the issue arises in the nasty join to the career table (one employee can have multiple career lines). Just to make things complicated, employees can have any number of career records on any given date, these can even be input for future career events. The following SQL picks out the latest-current career date for each employee based on the career_date being <= GetDate() and the date of entry for this date being the greatest.
From the above we want to return 2007-01-01 | 2006-05-05 13:54:18.000

Any advice on what I can do to optomize?
Oh judt to point out that "employee" is a view on the "Table 'people'." EDIT: I know it's pointing out the obvious, but I'm pulling out the managers "DN" from AD_Import based on the manager_number and employeeNumber matching.
I am trying to load previous days data at 3 am via a SSIS job.
The Date variable is initiated as DATEADD("dd",-1, GETDATE()) in the for loop.
Now, as this job runs at 3 am, and I set the variable as GETDATE() - 1, it excluded the data from 12 am to 3 am in the resultset as Date is set as YYYY-MM-DD 03:00:00:000 I need this to be set as YYYY-MM-DD 00:00:00:000
I have a database where user events are recorded quite frequently. I'd like to be able to get a count of the 'good' events that happen in each 5 second period. Unfortunately I don't know how to display and group by a time range.
Here is the query I would like to change: SELECT count(*), clientTime FROM dbo.V_COMBINED WHERE (sessionId = '122b') AND (type = N'sys_goodaction') AND (paraName = 'value') GROUP BY clientTime
It returns records like: 1 |2006-02-16 23:21:05.250 1 |2006-02-16 23:21:05.267 1 |2006-02-16 23:21:06.470
I'd like it to return records like: 5 |2006-02-16 23:21:06 - 23:21:10 3 |2006-02-16 23:21:11 - 23:21:15 4 |2006-02-16 23:21:16 - 23:21:20
Anyone know how I could do this? Is it even possible?
I have to compare two time duration for a resource booking system. for example if a resource is booked for 9.00am to 2.00am ,it must not be booked during that duration and other coinciding times e.g 1.00pm to 2.00 pm should not be booked or even 9.00 am to 5.00pm should not be booked.
Some advice appreciated on the following, thanks! I have this query: select field1, field2, astartdate, anenddate from atable where astartdate BETWEEN '9/11/2007 12:00:00 AM' AND '9/18/2007 11:59:59 PM'
I need the results to be like the following: field1,field2,anenddate-astartdate <<that's minus
I am not sure how to go about doing this. I have a record that has a start time of 1 am and a stop time of 9pm (same day for simplicity) and I want to know how many hours during a peek time and how many were not.
For example, the application starts and inserts into the data base the start time of 1am and then the user stops the app at 9pm. Lets say the peek hours are 1pm to 7pm. I know i can do a date diff function to get how long the app ran for but how can I get the amount of hours it ran during the peek time? I know there has to be some mathematical solution to this but it is escaping me at the moment. I want to do this over many records so a a cte or pivot table is the end solution for performance.
I need to find the total StatusDateTime for each TicketId I need to find the average StatusDateTime for all TicketIDs Ex. TicketId, "T10001", has 4 records based on the Seq column.
By using this, I should be able to find the amount of time between the first Seq and the last Seq to get a total time span for Ticket.
Expanding on this, I should be able to add up all of the Ticket's calculated time spans and divide by the number of tickets to get the average time span.
Looking for returning multiple entries from a time span. I have a date, start-time, end-time and duration. I need the start-times separated in a list. It's fine if temp tables are needed - I have that clearance.
ID - INT Machine - TINYINT StartTime - DATETIME EndTime - DATETIME
What I am trying to do is figure out how much time is used for production per day. The problem is, there are production runs that run over midnight and possible multiple days without ending. For example, if I have the following data:
I want to know how long does each of the script piece take. So how can I keep the records of time spent and save them as a file or save them into a table?
I have a table that contains an employee id and dates signifying time periods that those employees were working. I need to calculate anniversaries, such as 20 year, which are the sum of all periods spend working projected out to 20 years. For example,
The periods in which the employees were inactive (the time period between active ranges) would push back their anniversary date, obviously. I'm only concerned with employees that are currently active (ie. the most recent record has a NULL end date). I thought about trying to use datediff to calculate the time between active periods, but I'm not sure how to go about doing it.
I have a requirement to be able to calculate the transit time between international locations when I have the flight departure time and flight arrival times and departure and arrival locations.
We have a problem though, in that the datetime stored are local times, and the journeys can involve crossing the international date line in either direction, so it is possible for the arrival time to be earlier than the departure time!
To give a famous example, if you flew Concorde from London to Washington, you could depart at 10am on the 1st of June (London time) and arrive at 8.00am on 1st June (Washington time)
Even worse, you could leave Brisbane at 2.00 am on the 1st June, cross the International Date Line and arrive at San Francisco at 23:00 on 31st May!
Hi i am trying to make a trigger that calculates a new due time from a start time. I have a hour target like 24 hours, but the dates have an starttime and stoptime or the days could even be closed. I need it to calculate the new due datetime using the 24 hours as effective working time.
How do you build a query to calculate the time of employement or any space of time for each person in a table? I'm thinking I would want to use a "Current Date" and "Select Datediff" calculations of some sort and reference the hiredate against the current date but I have been unable to find much on this type of query.. Please help..
Can anyone help with the following Transact SQL question? Thanks. Ineed a store procedure to return the the result recordset which will beexecute from a web page. The database has tables, A and B. For each Arecord, there are many related B records. In the B table there is atimestamp field which tracks the change of A record. For example, A1has B like the followings:ID TimeStamp Chg Code Descption== ========= ======= ========A1 1138375875 E null //end of the eventA1 1138025002 S resumeA1 1137092615 S don't careA1 1137092570 S stopA1 1137092256 I null //start of theeventI need to generate all records in table A and total elapse time foreach record, but B with Chg Code 'S' that has "don't cacre" to bededucted from the total time, so that the result will be like this:ID Name TotalTime(seconds)== ==== =======A1 xyz 351187
Ok, I know that there is a very smart programmer out there that can resovle my issue.
I am trying to calculate time worked by 15 minute intervals.
Example: Emp 1 started work at 13:00:00 and worked 183 minutes Emp 2 started work at 17:15:00 and worked 150 minutes Emp 3 started work at 08:30:00 and worked 17 minutes
CREATE TABLE #Attendance( [ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [StudentID] [int] NOT NULL, [ClassID] [int] NOT NULL, [DateAdded] [datetime] default getdate() NOT NULL ) ON [PRIMARY]
insert into #Attendance(StudentID,ClassID,DateAdded) values(1,1,'2014-10-07 10:38:02.900')
[Code] ....
DateAdded column in first table is nothing but in and out time.
Now I want to prepare a query where I want to consider MIN DateAdded and max DateAdded and calculate the duration of student present in the class.
Validations i need to consider are:
If class is starting at 10am then student can come at 9:50am, i.e. Dateadded column should consider as student present in that class if value is less that 10 minutes of StartTime from #ClassAttendance table. Class End time i want to calculate depending upon ClassMinutes from #ClassAttendance
Also DateAdded column should be 10 minutes plus compared to calculated endtime. If its more than that consider lower DateAdded time.
And by using this thingIi want to calculate total number of minutes student present in the class and number of minutes absent.
If there is only one DateAdded for class then consider as a absent student.
i am using this expression to get the time difference between two times.
{%Z.elapsed.time(@AK.VD.depart.date,@AK.VD.depart.time,@AK.VD.depart.date,@DV.VD.arrival.time,"hh.hh")*60} as [LOS (min)]
When Arrival time and depart time both are on same day above expression working to get the diference .
But if arrival date 2013-09-20 00:00:00.000 and arrival time 0800 and depart date 2013-09-21 00:00:00.000 and depart time 0050 when i calculate the time difference(using above expression) between these two i am getting -429.60 which is wrong. i have to get around 990.
I am using SQL Server 2000. I need to query my database for all thecontracts that came in during a certain time frame (user is promptedfor reportingperiodid).Table - PeriodsFields - Reporting Period id intReporting Period desc varchar(30)Reporting Period Begin Date datetimeReporting Period End Date datetimeIf the user selects a 3 then the begin date is Jan. 1, 2004 and theend date is June 30, 2004.Now I need to calculate did any money come in for each week in thattime frame. I need to create a weekly list of all the weeks in thattime frame. Each time frame begins on a Monday. So my list wouldlook like1/5/20041/12/20041/19/20041/26/2004All the way to the end of that time period.How do I create this weekly list from a given time period using T-SQL?I would appreciate any and all help on this.Thanks,Tony
I have a number of databases with large tables. I need to update them from time to time. I want to get the recordcount of the table and calculate based on that the amount of time it would take to update the table. Any idea who I can do this? I'm using coldfusion 8 with sql to do this. Any advice would be appreciate!
How to calculate estimated completion time of a job and what is the variance/difference in time based on previous job history. Looking for tsql query which can accomplish this.For example)...Daily a job is taking 10 mins to complete. However, today due to some reason, the job is running over an hour and still running. It could be a blocking issue or some performance issue on the server due to which the job is still running.
In such cases, using a tsql query or a stored proc which monitor these jobs every 3 mins (Configurable value), so every 3 mins , query has to check, if they are any jobs which are taking more time than its usual completion time/avg completion time in that case shoot an email using dbmail functionality i.e. sp_Senddbmail .. From there, DBA can dig further using waits or sql trace etc...
Basically I want to calculate the time spent by S_Users on a particular S_ACTV_CODE:
- S_ACTV_CODE_PREV means the previous active records.
- S_START_TIME is the time of S_DATETIME when a S_ACTV_CODE starts
- S_END_TIME is the time before a S_ACTV_CODE changes to another S_ACTV_CODE
- For the first record, S_ACTV_CODE is null, so there is no S_ACTV_CODE_PREV, so S_ACTV_CODE_PREV is NULL
- For the second record S_ACTV_CODE has some value, but S_ACTV_CODE_PREV is NULL for first record. So second record S_ACTV_CODE_PREV is also NULL
- For the last record (means S_ACTV_IND = 1), the user is currently working on it and S_ACTV_CODE is not changed. So S_END_TIME is a open time and we want to keep it as NULL
I need to calculate the amount of time between each visit. I am pulling the Row Number for my visits and now I need the date span that goes between each day. I also need a new column that returns a Yes or a No if the date span exceeds 3 years.
SELECT ROW_NUMBER ( ) OVER ( PARTITION BY pv.PatientProfileId ORDER BY pv.Visit ASC ) AS RN , CONVERT ( VARCHAR ( 20 ) , pv.Visit , 101 ) AS Visit , pv.TicketNumber , vstatus.Description AS VisitStatus , doc.ListName AS Doctor
I have two nvarchar fields with time data 12:34:34 and the second one 12:34 I want to calculate the difference in Hours. The first field is called (OTIM) the second field is called (ReportedTime) if the name matters. I tried substring to trim the OTIM, I am unable to make it work.
