I am trying to figure out how to calculate the average time between phone calls for a user. The initial requirement is to calcualte this on all calls for an entire month but I would guess that would lead to other periods as well, such as daily, weekly, etc. One hurdle is what to do when going from one day to the next. I could possibly just week out any times between calls that are greater than a certain amount of time to address that.
Any way, here is a small sample of what I'll be dealing with. Any ideas on how to approach this or get it to work would be greatly appreciated.
Hi everyone, I need some help with creating a report that calculates the average turnaround time in days that it takes for units to return from trips destined to a location.
The database that I am working with lists a trip each time a unit is dispatched to a destination, and then another trip is created for the units return. In the example below I am trying to calculate the number of days that it takes for a unit to return to Vancouver by calculating the difference between the departure date from Vancouver and the arrival date back into Vancouver. I then need to calculate the average number of days that it takes for a unit to return from a trip. See sample data below.
UNIT -- TRIP -- START LOCATION --START DATE--FIN LOCATION--FIN DATE ================================================== ======= U12 ----001 --- VANCOUVER -------FEB 10 ------ ONTARIO ----- FEB 15 U10 ----002 --- VANCOUVER -------FEB 13 ------ ONTARIO ----- FEB 18 U12 ----003 --- ONTARIO ----------MARCH 13 --- VANCOUVER -- MARCH 18 U10 ----004 --- ONTARIO ----------MARCH 1 ---- VANCOUVER ---MARCH 6
Unit U12 took 36 days to return back to Vancouver Unit U10 took 21 days to return back to Vancouver
Therefore based on the two trips it takes an average of aproximately 28.5 days for a unit to return from trips destined to Ontario.
Hello~, The table has columns like this. ________________________________ time smalldatetime value1 int value2 int ----------------------------------------------------------
for example, .... '2006-11-16 12:00:00',100,200 '2006-11-16 13:00:00',110,210 '2006-11-16 14:00:00',120,220 ....
The record is inserted at every hour.
I want get daily,monthly,yearly average and display the result ordered by time.
I am running into a barrier and need to understand the average length of time that a fully optimized data cube should take to process.
We are currently running an average of 15 to 20 minutes per cube, with average of 2000 aggregations, 25% performance increase, and approximately 2 million rows, with around 40 dimensions and 30 measures.
I personally think this is a pretty good time to process. However, I am being challenged to reduce this time frame. In theroy I can't possibly see it getting below where we currently are. SO I am reaching out to the group of guru's...
What is your average length of time to process your Data Cubes? Please respond to me at ken.kolk@medcor.com I would greatly appreciate it and need the averages from the field.
I created a PowerPivot measure which is a ratio Ratio = Number of Events/Time calculated on 12 months. I would like the grand total to be this Rate Sum(Number Of Events)/Sum(Time calculated).
In my Pivot I have one measure which I called Value and this value can have different types depending on one attribute.For instance one attribute is number of events, an other one is time and the third one is ratio.I want to display a custom grand total simple sum for events and time and a calculation of my ratio for ratio.
For instance 201501 201502 201503 TOTAL Number of events 8 10 10 28 Time 5 5 4 14 Ratio 8/5 10/5 10/4 28/14
So some have just 1 test and some have multiple. I have a count for each. What I need to do is use that count and get an average time between each test per student.
Hello -I am trying to determine the last time a SP was executed. Does anyoneknow how to do this? I'm trying to cleanup some databases.Thanks!*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!
Hi, I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this question. These forums are overwhelming and I couldn't find the appropriate place to post.
I am wondering if there is some way to determine when a query has completed. What I want to do is use a PleaseWaitButton in asp.net when the user clicks to run a query and have the button reactivate after the query has completed. I know how to set a specific wait time but I do not want the user to have to wait a default time for the query to complete. Any help you may provide would be greatly appreciated.
I have a table of machine data that captures fault codes, time machine stopped and time machine started. I can easily calculate the downtime, but how do i take the last start time and subtract it from the next stop time (1 row from the next row) to get an up time. I need it to group by short date and fault as I intend to use Excel as a reporting tool and pulling in all data will not fit. What is the most efficient way? Thanks, Lee
I need to determine the actual date/time that a message was placed on the queue. In my "activated" procedure I want to log this information and pass it along to further processing routines. From what I can tell, the Queue table itself does not have this information captured.
Hello experts. I have been searching for anything about this but found very little. What are the events logged in SQL Server Error Logs aside from Successful/Failed Login, Backup/Restore/Recover database and, start/init sql server? Can we configure this to log other events, like CREATE or DBCC events for example? If so, how? Thanks a lot.
Calculation of an average using DAX' AVERAGE and AVERAGEX.This is the manual calculation in DW, using SQL.In the tabular project (we're i've noticed that these 4 %'s are in itself strange), in a 1st moment i've noticed that i would have to divide by 100 to get the same values as in the DW, so i've used AVERAGEX:
The results were, respectively: 701,68; 2120,60...; -669,441; and finally **-694,74** for Avg_FMPdollar.i can't understand the difference to SQL calculation, since calculations are similar to the other ones. After that i've tried:
test:=SUM([_FMPdollar])/countrows('Fct Sales') AND the value was EQUAL to SQL: -672,17 test2:=AVERAGE('Fct Sales'[_Frontend Margin Percent ACY]), and here, without dividing by 100 in the end, -696,74...
So, AVERAGE and AVERAGEX have a diferent behaviour from the SUM divided by COUNTROWS, and even more strange, test2 doesn't need the division by 100 to be similar to AVERAGEX result.
I even calculated the number of blanks and number of zeros on each column, could it be a difference on the denominator (so, a division by a diferente number of rows), but they are equal on each row.
I have a temp_max column and a temp_min column with data for every day for 60 years. I want the average temp for jan of yr1 through yr60, averaged... I.E. the avg temp for Jan of yr1 is 20 and the avg temp for Jan of yr2 is 30, then the overall average is 25. The complexity lies within calculating a daily average by month, THEN a yearly average by month, in one statement. ?confused?
Here's the original query. accept platformId CHAR format a6 prompt 'Enter Platform Id (capital letters in ''): '
SELECT name, country_cd from weather_station where platformId=&&platformId;
SELECT to_char(datetime,'MM') as MO, max(temp_max) as max_T, round(avg((temp_max+temp_min)/2),2) as avg_T, min(temp_min) as min_temTp, count(unique(to_char(datetime, 'yyyy'))) as TOTAL_YEARS FROM daily WHERE platformId=&&platformId and platformId = platformId and platformId = platformId and datetime=datetime and datetime=datetime GROUP BY to_char(datetime,'MM') ORDER BY to_char(datetime,'MM');
I would like to AUTOMATICALLY count the event for the month BEFORE today
and
count the events remaining in the month (including those for today).
I can count the events remaining in the month manually with this query (today being March 20):
SELECT Count(EventID) AS [Left for Month], FROM RECalendar WHERE (EventTimeBegin >= DATEADD(DAY, 1, (CONVERT(char(10), GETDATE(), 101))) AND EventTimeBegin < DATEADD(DAY, 12, (CONVERT(char(10), GETDATE(), 101))))
Could anyone provide me with the correct syntax to count the events for the current month before today
and
to count the events remaining in the month, including today.
What we are trying to do is watch a table in one database for an insert. If something is inserted into a unique ID column, we want to go to another database, on the same server, and look for that same number and place a value in another column for that record. Any ideas?
I'd like to build an application that will react to specific changes todata in a set of tables in a database. The application would replicatethese data changes to another database. The target database won't beSQLServer. Neither is this simple replication, at times the applicationwill need to get extra data from the source database before the targetis updated.In other DBMS systems I am involved with the DBMS has the facilty towrite to an application message queue so that the monitoring applicationonly has to monitor the queue rather than a database. What I'd like todo is something like this:1. Some application changes data in a table.2. A trigger reacts to the change and writes a message to an applicationqueue.3. A windows service/process monitors the queue and picks up themessage. It then carries out whatever replication/DB actions are necessary.This would mean defining a number of new triggers on existing tables anddeveloping the windows service/process. Existing applications and theexisting tables in the database would remain unchanged. I'm not awindows programmer but I have someone in my team who is and who willbuild the windows service/process.The bit I'm unsure about is how a trigger can write to an applicationqueue or communicate with the windows service/process. I may be usingthe wrong terminology as I have more knowledge of Unix than Windows.Could anyone help with how I can do this or suggest any alternativestrategies.Thanks In Advance.Laurence
Just finishing of a large ETL system and have aquestion about the following:-
We have 164 child packages being called from a single parent package which is setup to perform logging to a SQL Server table. Anything that Errors or has Warnings is logged accordingly, however, how do you trap the PackageStart and PackageEnd events? when the child package knows nothing about logging?
My first thought was to have the Parent call the AddEvent SP with the appropriate values, but thought I may check here in case I missed something
I'm trying to catch an error and trigger a control flow to handle it. I introduce a control flow to catch "OnError" event, but , despite muy package has some errors it doesnt work...
Another issue, if i omit an error on a transformation object ( in order let the flow continue executing), can this error be managed by an event or record it in a log?
I would like to know how I can get hold the text for a service and event notifications. What I need is the ability to get hold of a list of the events I'm currently monitoring.
i.e.
Server or database level
I though I would be able to get hold of this in sys.server_event_notifications but it doesn't seem to have any data although my server level event notifcation service is running.
I have the following code and I'm trying to set an event dynamicly in the foreach statement...

foreach (DataRow dr in ds.Tables[0].Rows) { TableRow tr = new TableRow(); for (int i = 0; i < dr.ItemArray.Length; i++) { TableCell tc = new TableCell(); tc.Text = dr.ItemArray.GetValue(i).ToString(); tc.BackColor = Color.White; if (dr.ItemArray.GetValue(8).ToString() == "COMPLETE") { tc.BackColor = Color.BlueViolet; } tr.Cells.Add(tc); } table.Rows.Add(tr); } foreach (TableRow tablerow in table.Rows) { TableCell newtc = new TableCell(); Button mybutton = new Button(); newtc.Controls.Add(mybutton); mybutton.Text = "details"; //set the event here tablerow.Cells.Add(newtc); } Panel1.Controls.Add(table); DataBind();
I know how to get the events that start say on May, and I know how to get the events that end on May, however, How would I get the events that start on January and end in July. The month of May should display that event too. so far, as an example, I have: SELECT Events.startDate, Events.endDate
FROM Events WHERE Events.Active = 1 AND startDate BETWEEN convert(smalldatetime, '5/1/2006') AND convert(smalldatetime, '5/31/2006')
I am not sure if I have posted something about this, but I can't believe there is not a single person out there that is using a procedure written in SQL in order to schedule sending of an email, if data hasn't been submitted. I have had some hits and some help from some people but I am pretty much still stuck.
How is everybody else doing these sorts of thing,scheduling an email to be sent to a user if he/she hasn't submitted data,somebody must be doing it? A sample, help ,anything???
I am tracing a SQL Server 2000 production server that gets a queryabout every second. The Event I chose to watch was "Lock:Timeout". Tomy surprise I see many of these come through the trace. Is this normalbehavior? What is "Lock:Timeout" showing me?Thanks,John
Hi,I am trying to debug some queries that are being generated by anexternal program, and I have no way of finding out what the actualsyntax of the query is from within the program itself. This means thatwhen the query fails I am left with only a very unhelpful message.So what I was wondering, was whether there is a way that I can view theactual queries that are sent to SQL server as they happen, or if areal-time solution doesn't exist, then some way I can look back afterthe event and see the syntax of the queries?Ideally, what I would like to do is see the queries in the form theywere sent to the server, ie "SELECT * FROM foo WHERE bar='foobar'", asthis would help me to figure out where the generated queries are goingwrong.Cheers,--Dylan Parryhttp://electricfreedom.org | http://webpageworkshop.co.ukThe opinions stated above are not necessarily representative ofthose of my cats.

Hiwe are considering porting an application from Ingres to SQL Server.Part of the application uses a feature of Ingres called databaseevents. These allow a application to monitor for an event happening inthe database, e.g. a user enters a record meeting certain conditions,the database raises an event including a record ID, and a clientapplication sees the event (without continual explicit polling), readsthe new record and starts processing it.Any idea what the equivalent functionality would be in SQL Server2000, or are applications simply not done that way?TIAChloe CrowderThe British Library
I'm trying to add functionality to a VB 6 application allowingcustomer service to add a customer number to a new customer.Customers are added to the database by sales personnel, and aprospective customer may have multiple rows due to projected ordersfor multiple products. Customer numbers are assigned when a newcustomer makes their first order.I'm using a DataGrid connected to an ADO Data Control. The datacontrol is connected to a view in SQL Server using the 'distinct'directive (I know it's not updatable) to show only one line per newcustomer. What I wish to do is capture the update event (probablythrough the FieldChangeComplete routine of the data control), manuallyassign the newly entered customer number to all appropriate rows inthe database, and cancel the update event with no notifications.I'm having two problems:1. I can't capture the newly entered customer number. The Textproperty of the DataGrid returns the old value of the cell instead ofthe newly entered value. How do I get the edited value?2. Even though I set adStatus = adStatusCancel in theFieldChangeComplete routine, I get a Microsoft DataGrid Control dialogstating 'Operation was Canceled'. How do I avoid this notification?
