Days Of The Week
Jan 24, 2006Is there anyway to get SQL to convert a date to days of the week?
Example, I have a query where the date is "01/01/2006" but I would like it to display "Sunday". Thank you.

Power Pivot :: Cumulative Total For Current Week Days And Previous Week
Nov 30, 2015We are trying to compare our current calendar week (based on Monday being the first day of the week) with the previous calendar week.
I'm trying to produce a line chart with 2 axis:
- x axis; the day of the week (Mon, Tues, Wed etc - it is fine for this to be a # rather than text e.g. 1 = Mon, 2 = Tues etc)
- y axis; the cumulative number of orders
The chart needs two series:
Previous Week. The running count of orders placed that week.
Current Week. The running count of orders placed this week.
Obviously in such a chart the 'Current Week' series is going not going to have values along the whole axis until the end of the week. This is expected and the aim of the chart is to see the current week compares against the previous week for the same day.
I have two tables:
Orders TableCalendar Table
The calendar table's main date column is [calDate] and there are columns for the usual [calWeekNum], [calMonth] etc.
My measure for counting orders is simply; # Orders: = countrows[orders].
How do I take this measure and then work out my two series. I have tried numerous things such as adapting TOTALMTD(), following articles such as these:
- [URL] ...
- [URL] ...
But I have had no luck. The standard cumulative formulas do work e.g. if I wanted a MTD or YTD table I would be ok, it's just adjusting to a WTD that is causing me big issues.
Difference Between Days Of The Week
Aug 15, 2006Hi! I am totally new to the forum and to the SQL.
Need your advice. My report will run on Friday automatically and I need to retrieve the data from previous Friday until Today’s Friday.
I have an example from another developer’s code, but this one gets the data on the previous day. Can you please help me to right the expression?
Here is an example ‘on the previous day’
CAST(CONVERT(CHAR(10), tbl1.closeddate,120) as datetime) = CAST(CONVERT(CHAR(10), dateadd(day, -1,getdate()), 120) as datetime)
This is what I did (assuming today is Friday)
(tbl1.closedDate BETWEEN CAST(CONVERT(CHAR(10), DATEADD(day, - 8, GETDATE()), 120) AS datetime) AND CAST(CONVERT(CHAR(10),
DATEADD(day, - 1, GETDATE()), 120) AS datetime))
I don't get any records back.
Please help.
Thanks a lot.

Convert Date Range Into Week Days
Nov 3, 2006Hi,
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
The report needs to show:
Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday
0 0 0 1 2 0 0
Thank you in advance!
Adding Up Occurrences Of Reports On Days Of Week - Get MAX Values
Oct 13, 2014In my database I am adding up the occurrences of reports on days of the week. If I am not using the MAX value then I get something returned such as
EmployeeID DaysOfWeek ReportID
1001 1 201
1001 2 201
As I just need the highest value returned I'm attempting to use MAX. However, the problem is that all values are being returned in the DaysOfWeek column as 5 even though they may range anywhere from 1-7. The DaysOfWeek should be for a unique EmployeeID/ReportID combination.

SELECT Shifts1.EmployeeID, X.*, Schedule.ReportID

Create A Yesterday, This Week, Last Week Calculated Member
May 23, 2007Hi all,
I'd like to add a yesterday dimension member to a new dimension, like a "Time Utility" dimension, that references the second last day of non empty data in a cube.
At the moment, I'm doing this:
Code Snippet
create member [MIA DW].[DATE TIME].[Date].[Yesterday]
as [DATE TIME].[Date].&[2007-01-01T00:00:00]
select [Measures].members on 0,
non empty [DATE TIME].[Date].members on 1
from [MIA DW]
But the [yesterday] member does not seem to belong to [DATE TIME].[Date].members?
So I guess there's two questions:
1) Can I have a new empty dimension which contains all these special members like "Yesterday" or "This Week" and "Last Week" (these last two obviously refer to a set of Dates)
2)How come the Yesterday member is not returned by the .members function?
Thanks
Greg

ISO Year Week Day Of Week Function
Jan 18, 2006Function F_ISO_YEAR_WEEK_DAY_OF_WEEK returns the ISO 8601 Year Week Day of Week in format YYYY-W01-D for the date passed. W01 represents the week of the year from W01 through W53, and D represents the day of the week with 1 = Monday through 7 = Sunday.
The first week of each year starts on the first Monday on or before January 4 of that year, so that the year begins from December 28 of the prior year through January 4 of the current year.
This code creates the function and demos it for the first day, first date+60, and first date+364 for each ISO week/year from 1990 to 2030.

Remove Weekends And Non Working Days When Calculating Days Difference Between Two Dates
Jan 7, 2014I have an SQL code below which removes weekends and non working days when calculating days difference between two dates:
ce.enquiry_time represents when the enquiry was logged
(DATEDIFF(dd, ce.enquiry_time, getdate()) + 1)
-(DATEDIFF(wk, ce.enquiry_time, getdate()) * 2)
-(CASE WHEN DATENAME(dw, ce.enquiry_time) = 'Sunday' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)
-(CASE WHEN DATENAME(dw, getdate()) = 'Saturday' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)
-(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM nonworking_day WHERE nonworking_day.nonworking_date >= ce.enquiry_time AND nonworking_day.nonworking_date < dateadd(dd,datediff(dd,0,getdate()),1))
It works but I don't understand how it works it out. I am having issues understanding each coloured piece of code and how it works together.

Day Of The Week
May 18, 2007How to find the saturday in the current week using sql server 2000
View 5 Replies View RelatedDay Of The Week
Jun 7, 2001I am trying to convert a field that has a Date and Time in smallDateTime format into something that will give me the day of the week that each Date corresponds to. For example, if my Date/Time field says "Jun 7 2001 09:30:00" I want my Day field to automatically say "Thursday". Is there a function that will do this? Or is there something close that will convert a variable of smalldatetime format into a number 0-6 which then can be converted to a day of the week?

Dec 11, 2001How do I see which is the first day of the week setting in my server?
I was reading about @@DATEFIRST and SET FIRSTDATE, etc. But I don't want to set anything, I just want to know what is the first day of the week set on my server.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Date Of First Day In Week
Apr 27, 2005I need to write a user defined function that will return the date of the first day of a week when provided with the week number. I had an idea of using a while loop with that will keep adding 1 day from January 1st until the week number (found via the DATEPART function) is equal to the supplied week number. Not sure if this is the best way though - any ideas?

Systemdate Week
Feb 19, 1999this might not be considered a sql problem but here goes anyways.
it was 53 weeks in 1998. however it seems like my computer considered week 53 last year as week 1 in 1999.
so when i perform an operation like this:
select datepart(wk, getdate())
next weeks number is returned. what to do?

=====================
2001-01-05 | 1
1996-12-28 | 52
1987-06-15 | 26
Thanks a lot,

Week SQL Query

Week Groupings
Jul 26, 2007Hi all,
I have this code below and it appears to work, but I wondered if there was a better way.
Basically I have a table with some sales. The amount sold is stored in a varchar (for a very stupid reason) called ticketNo, the date of the sale is stored in txDate (thankfully this is a date).
We need to report out the total amount sold for a period in weekly groupings with the week starting on Monday. If a week starts within the period specified but does not finish we extend the period to include the whole week.
As I said the code below appears to work (no I have not tested extensively), but it looks like it will be pretty resouce intensive.
Any suggestions?
declare @minTxDate DateTime
declare @maxTxDate DateTime
set @minTxDate = '02-Jul-2007'
set @maxTxDate = '31-Aug-2007'
declare @StartOfYear DateTime
declare @LocalMaxTxDate DateTime
declare @WeekDay int
declare @StartWeek int
declare @EndWeek int
set @StartOfYear = '01-Jan-' + Convert(varchar(4),Year(getDate()))
set @WeekDay = DatePart(weekday,@StartOfYear)
set @StartWeek = DatePart(week, @minTxDate)
set @EndWeek = DatePart(week, @maxTxDate)
set @LocalMaxTxDate = DateAdd(d,10,@maxTxDate)
set DATEFIRST 1
select
DateAdd(d,((DatePart(week, tmpSale.txDate)-1)*7)+@WeekDay-1, @StartOfYear) 'FirstDayOfWeek',
DatePart(week, tmpSale.txDate) 'WeekOfSale',
COALESCE(sum (Convert(decimal, ticketNo)),0) 'TonnesSold'
from
(select
Sale.txDate,
Sale.ticketNo
from Sale
where Sale.txDate between @minTxDate and @LocalMaxTxDate)
tmpSale
where DatePart(week, tmpSale.txDate) between @StartWeek and @EndWeek
group by DatePart(week, tmpSale.txDate),
DateAdd(d,((DatePart(week, tmpSale.txDate)-1)*7)+@WeekDay-1, @StartOfYear)
