I'm stuck on converting a datetime field to Int. Basically, one of the fields in the select returns the datetime of a journey. However I need to be able to add up the number of days for a specific person who done that journey, e.g. it will return 21/08/2014, 22/08/2014 etc...
I then need to total up the days as a new field to display the number of days.
Can you do this by converting a datetime to int then use COUNT on the int?
I have a column in a table that stores the number of hours a task took to do. The column TaskDuration is a datetime datatype. I need to convert the hours to something that can be summed. Does anyone how this can be done? I tried CONVERT(nvarchar(5), tblTasks.TaskDuration, 108) but of course the nvarchar(5) cannot be summed. Maybe there is a way to convert the time portion to minutes and divide it by 60, anyway if someone can offer some help I appreciate it.
Hi, I'm wanting to generate a list of all the days that fall between a certain period of time (month, year etc.), but can't find any documentation on how to do this, does anybody know the sql query to do so? TIA!
I am new to SQL programming, i have only a fair knowledge on sql programmin.So, I apologies for any silly questions-
I have a Table1 which contains C1-acountid C2-date C3-grossamount(postivie and negative decimal values) C4-netamount
Table2 C1-groupid C2-accountid
Table 3 C1-groupid C2-groupname
I need create a store procedure to retrieve the following on a single table
1. top 10 losers of the day i.e. 10 AccountIDs with the greatest negative Grossamount for the day NOTE:These 10 AccountIDs may be sam or differing each day 2.sum of Netamount for each AccountIDs listed in STEP 1 since the beginning of the month. NOTE:These 10 AccountIDs may be same or differing each day and each day sum of netamount should be from beginning of the month till current date. 3.Sum of Netamount for the last 5 days for each accountids in STEP1
The result set must contain the columns as below
C1-accountid C2-date C3-net loss for 10 losers on the current date since the beginning of the month C4-Sum of Net for last 5 days C5-groupname
Please help me.
Below is the script that i have written, without calculating the sum
( select top 10 a.date, a.accountid, a.gross, a.net, c.groupname from GBSys_Sum_EOD a
join server2.dbname.dbo.table2 b on a.accontid=b.accounit=id join server2.dbname.dbo.Table3 c on b.groupid=c.groupid
where date> getdate()-1 and gross< (floor(-00.00)) order by gross )
I am inserting date and time data into a SQL Server 2012 Express table from an application. The application is providing the date and time as a string data type. Is there a TSQL way to convert the date and time string to an SQL datetime date type? I want to do the conversion, because SQL displays an error due to the
My date and time string from the application looks like : 3/11/2014 12:57:57 PM
Dear Experts,Ok, I hate to ask such a seemingly dumb question, but I'vealready spent far too much time on this. More that Iwould care to admit.In Sql server, how do I simply change a character into a number??????In Oracle, it is:select to_number(20.55)from dualTO_NUMBER(20.55)----------------20.55And we are on with our lives.In sql server, using the Northwinds database:SELECTr.regionid,STR(r.regionid,7,2) as a_string,CONVERT(numeric, STR(r.regionid,7,2)) as a_number,cast ( STR(r.regionid) as int ) as cast_to_numberFROM REGION R1 1.00112 2.00223 3.00334 4.0044SELECTr.regionid,STR(r.regionid,7,2) as a_string,CONVERT(numeric, STR(r.regionid,7,2) ) as a_number,cast (STR(r.regionid,7,2) as numeric ) as cast_to_numberFROM REGION R1 1.00112 2.00223 3.00334 4.0044Str converts from number to string in one motion.Isn't there a simple function in Sql Server to convertfrom string to number?What is the secret?Thanks

I have events which require certain things be done several days before the event and things be done several days after the event. I attempted to use the DATEADD function to subtract 3 days from the event date. The SQL Statement I created did just that, but, it displays 3 days back from today's date.
There are 2 tables:
CalendarCategories -- Table
CalCategoryID -- int field CalCategoryName -- varchar field
CalendarEvents -- Table
CalCategoryID -- int Field Title -- varchar Field StartDate -- DateTime Field
I have to perform some tasks 3 days before the event. So, TODAY, I want to see a listing of those events which are scheduled for 3 days FROM NOW.
This is my current SQL Statement: SELECT DATEADD(d,-3,StartDate) AS [Update Payoffs & Ins], Title AS [Closing Description] FROM CalendarEvents WHERE datepart(dd,StartDate)=datepart(dd,getdate()) AND datepart(mm,StartDate)=datepart(mm,getdate())
This SQL Statement takes TODAY'S events and gives them a date of February 20. See example of the results at http://www.joelwilliamslaw.com/DesktopDefault.aspx?tabid=141
This is what I have already done relative to my calendar listings:
Specific Event Types for the Current Month :
SELECT StartDate AS [Date and Time], CalCategoryName AS [Cls Type], Title AS [Closing Description] FROM CalendarEvents inner join CalendarCategories on CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = CalendarCategories.CalCategoryID where (CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 1 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 2 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 3 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 4 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 20) AND (datepart(mm,StartDate)=datepart(mm,getdate()) AND datepart(yy,StartDate)=datepart(yy,getdate())) AND CalendarEvents.ModuleID = 360 ORDER BY StartDate ASC
Specific Event Types for the Current Day:
SELECT StartDate AS [Date and Time], CalCategoryName AS [Cls Type], Title AS [Closing Description] FROM CalendarEvents inner join CalendarCategories on CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = CalendarCategories.CalCategoryID where (CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 1 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 2 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 3 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 4 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 20) AND (datepart(dd,StartDate)=datepart(dd,getdate()) AND datepart(mm,StartDate)=datepart(mm,getdate()) AND datepart(yy,StartDate)=datepart(yy,getdate())) AND CalendarEvents.ModuleID = 360 ORDER BY StartDate ASC
I need to add days to a date field, my date field is as varchar(20041030 for example) and I need to add 4 days to it, my result should be 20041103, result field is also in varchar,how would I do that, can anyone pls help?
select a.RelocateID,a.DateEntered,a.CompanyID,b.FileClose dDate from test1 a inner join test b on (a.RelocateID = b.RelocateID) where CompanyID ='5710' and DateEntered >= '01/01/2004' and convert(varchar,FileClosedDate,101) < '31/12/2004'
Hi I was wondering if somebody could help me alter this query so I an calulate the difference in days in between DateEntered and FileClosedDate having the above criteria. I can't seem to be able to get the datediff function right in this particular example
I don't know if this can be done, but hopefully one of the experts in this forum cna help me out.
I have a TimeOff table which contains 5 fields: timeoffID, employeename, startdate, enddate, and timofftype. I need to create a report which shows how many people take sick day (one of the timeofftypes) on each week day (i.e. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and etc.) The problem is that I don't know how to convert the date range (from startdate to enddate) into indvidual week day for each timeoff record.
For example, on the table,
TimeoffID employeename startdate enddate timeofftype 1 Andy 11/02/2006 11/03/2006 Sick Day 2 Bill 11/03/2006 11/03/2006 Sick Day
Hiwhen inserting records into a table one of the fields is a date field. I am using the GETDATE() function to insert the date as the record is being inserted.when i retrieve an entire record from the table i want to be able to select this date, but also to get the number of days it has been since that record was inserted.eg: 3 daysif the record was inserted less than one day ago (<24 hrs ago) i would like it to return the number of hours. e.g. 22 hrsi dont want hours to be displayed if the days is >= 1.please can anyone guide me with this?thanks!
I have a table with 3 columns: Item# | Date | ItemAmount. Everyday there is a number of transactions entered. An Item# can only be entered once par day (if it has occurred that day).
What I want to do is to : retrieve the number of total days where an Item has been entered for more than 2 consecutive days (for the month).
Example: if item I022 has been entered Monday and wed, then ignore, but if it's been entered Mon, Tues then return 2, if Mon, Tues, Wed then return 3 because the days are consecutive.
I'm wanting to get the average number of days between orders in my orders tbl - so I've done a search and found the following sql coded that I have modified for my db tbl's and columns. But when I try and parse it - I get 'Incorrect syntax new the keyword Group' - what am I missing.
SELECT custId, AVG(invDate - priorDate) FROM(SELECT custId,invDate,LAG(invDate) OVER (PARTITION BY custId ORDER BY invDate)as priorDate FROM orders) Group BY custId
What is the piece of SQL which looks at the average date difference for each enquiry and then sums it all up to give an overall average number of days it takes?
I have a query that counts the number of pay checks received in a month, but I need to compare that to the number of actual paydays in a month. If we were on a set pay schedule (i.e. the 15th of each month) it would be easy. Unfortunately that's not the case. We are paid biweekly on Fridays and our last pay day was April 4th.
So I need to know how many pay periods were in a specified month. For example, April would have 2 (April 4th and 18th), May would have 3 (May 2nd, 16th, and 30th), etc.
hi, How do i convert a varchar field into the datetime data type? the reason i need this lies in the requirement that in the earlier data base the column that is hlding the date value is having the data type as varchar. and in the new design the column data type is datetime. i am using sql scripts for the data migration from the older design to the newer and got stuck with this datetime convertion issue. do let me know the best possible solution.
following are the sample data that is theer in the older table for the date.
12/12/2003 1/13/2007 01132004 1-1-2004 1.2.2001
there is no uniformity of the data that is stored currently.
I am trying to determine the amount of days in a month to prorate a month end estimate. We measure service calls and need to approximate how many we will have at month end. I would like to automate a query to post on our web and need to know how many days are in the current month.
A possible solution would be to piece together a datetime variable using getdate and dateadd then use a datepart. However , I don't know how to create a datetime variable this way.
Hi and Thank you in advance I am trying to find a away to calculate the number of business days between two dates. In other word, I do not want to count Saturday nor Sundays if those days are between the two dates. Example if Date1 = 11/26/1999 Date2 = 11/30/1999
the DateDiff(dd,Date1,Date2) the result should be 2 I need to do this against a table which might not have a lot of records, but I also need to not count Holidays if they fall within the two Dates. Thank you in advance Tomas
