Need Help With Job-duration Query

Jan 24, 2008

I have a query that displays number of hours duration in a jobs by months matrix. Here is a simplified version of my tables.

CREATE TABLE jobhead (
jobnum varchar (14) NULL,
jobcompletiondate datetime NULL
)

CREATE TABLE labordtl (
jobnum varchar (14) NULL ,
clockindate datetime NULL ,
clockintime decimal(6, 2) NULL ,
)
Here's an abbreviated query.

SELECT h.JobNum,
(CASE WHEN MONTH(h.JobCompletionDate) = 1 THEN datediff(day,MIN(l.ClockInDate),MAX(l.clockInDate)) ELSE 0 END) AS JAN,
(CASE WHEN MONTH(h.JobCompletionDate) = 2 THEN datediff(day,MIN(l.ClockInDate),MAX(l.clockInDate)) ELSE 0 END) AS FEB,
...
FROM JobHead h
INNER JOIN LaborDtl l ON h.JobNum=l.JobNum
WHERE JobCompletionDate>='20070101' AND JobCompletionDate <'20080101'
AND l.ClockInTime<>0
GROUP BYh.JobNum
,h.JobCompletionDate

The query shows, for each job, the month in which the job completed, and the number of hours it took to complete. I€™m calculating the number of days€™ duration by doing a datediff between the oldest and newest clockindates. I need to ignore adjustment transactions in the labordtl table €“ these rows are easily identified as they have clockintime values of 0. So far, so good. Now here€™s my problem.

There are some jobs which have only one €śreal€? labor transaction €“ this could happen if the job only took one day to complete. Other labor transactions may exist for that job, but let's say they are adjustments which we can ignore -- the date they were entered should not extend the duration of the job. In this situation, my datediff between the oldest valid transaction and the newest, returns 0. I don€™t have to count hours between clockintime and clockouttime. The rule is simply that if there is only one "real" labor transaction, I need to count this as a 1 day job.

I thought a nested CASE statement or expression might be the way to go but I didn't make any real progress.

Any ideas to solve this problem would be appreciated.

Transact SQL :: Get Total Request Duration From Multiple Task Duration?

Jun 4, 2015

I have the following SQL query

SELECT
[Req_ID]
,[Service_Name]
,[Req_Started_Date]
,[Task_Name]
,[Task_Status]
,[Performer_Full_Name]

[code]....

Which works fine, but what I need to calculate the total duration of a request based on the duration of the tasks completed in the request based on Req_ID. I would like to use the CASE statement I have to determine the SLA_Mins for each task and add them together to get total request SLA_Mins.

Below is the create table schema and data

GO
/****** Object: Table [dbo].[MidrangeOtherSourceControl] Script Date: 06/03/2015 18:13:15 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[MidrangeOtherSourceControl](
[Req_ID] [float] NULL,
[Service_Name] [nvarchar](255) NULL,

[code]....

Query Duration Using Parameters Vrs No Parameters

Apr 27, 2006

Hi,
I have an app in C# that executes a query using SQLCommand and parameters and is taking too much time to execute.

I open a SQLProfiler and this is what I have :

exec sp_executesql N' SELECT TranDateTime ... WHERE CustomerId = @CustomerId',
N'@CustomerId nvarchar(4000)', @CustomerId = N'11111

I ran the same query directly from Query Analyzer and take the same amount of time to execute (about 8 seconds)

I decided to take the parameters out and concatenate the value and it takes less than 2 second to execute.

Here it comes the first question...
Why does using parameters takes way too much time more than not using parameters?

Then, I decided to move the query to a Stored Procedure and it executes in a snap too.
The only problem I have using a SP is that the query can receive more than 1 parameter and up to 5 parameters, which is easy to build in the application but not in the SP

I usually do it something like
(@CustomerId is null or CustomerId = @CustomerId) but it generate a table scan and with a table with a few mills of records is not a good idea to have such scan.

Is there a way to handle "dynamic parameters" in a efficient way???

Calculating Duration

Jan 18, 2007

I am trying to get a query that will allow me to report the time taken to complete a certain training module.

The database itself does not have a duration field so I am tring to get the duration by using MIN and MAX. I can get the timing for when the module was opened and the time for the last mouse click on it, from this I need to be able to calculate the time taken to complete.

Query I am using to get the basic info comes from 3 tables so I have only attached the relevent output. Query used is as follow:

SELECT *
FROM PPS_SCOS, PPS_TRANSCRIPTS, PPS_TRANSCRIPT_DETAILS, PPS_PRINCIPALS
WHERE PPS_SCOS.SCO_ID = PPS_TRANSCRIPTS.SCO_ID
AND PPS_TRANSCRIPTS.TRANSCRIPT_ID = PPS_TRANSCRIPT_DETAILS.TRANSCRIPT_ID
AND PPS_TRANSCRIPTS.PRINCIPAL_ID = PPS_PRINCIPALS.PRINCIPAL_ID
AND PPS_SCOS.NAME LIKE 'MTM-106 The Dangers of Smoking'
AND PPS_PRINCIPALS.NAME LIKE 'Nigel Cordiner'
AND PPS_TRANSCRIPTS.TICKET NOT LIKE 'l-%'
ORDER BY PPS_TRANSCRIPT_DETAILS.DATE_CREATED

Output:

pps_scospps_scospps_transcript_detailspps_principalspps_principals
SCO_IDNAME DATE_CREATED PRINCIPAL_ID NAME

Run Duration On SQL Job Doubled After Conversion From 6.5 To 7.0

Nov 29, 1999

SQL 6.5 - run duration 6-7 hours
SQL 7.0 - run duration 12-13 hours
175+ columns with total record size=570
4.2M records with tablesize 2.5G

It's a simple 'select into...' with some embedded logic from a work table with all char fields into the actual table converting char fields into various data types (int, datetime, real, etc.) Here is a sample of the code:

SELECT

PaidToDt=CASE
WHEN PAIDDT = '0001-01-01' THEN NULL
WHEN ISDATE(PAIDDT)=1 AND SUBSTRING(PAIDDT,1,2) = '19' THEN CONVERT(smalldatetime,PAIDDT)
WHEN ISDATE(PAIDDT)=1 AND SUBSTRING(PAIDDT,1,2) = '20' AND SUBSTRING(PAIDDT,3,2) < '79' THEN CONVERT(smalldatetime,PAIDDT)

Duration Too Long (opinions)?

Sep 15, 2004

Hearing complaints from users about speed on db server (I have almost no control on design) it just has to work. Ran profiler looking for all sql statements over 4000 millsec and in one hour returned over 715 tsql statements. Over 300 of these were over 10000 milliseconds. THis is on an 8 way Dell with 8 gig of RAM. Looking for opinions, how bad does this look compared to other servers you are taking care of? Cache hit ratio is at 99 % and system queue length still under 1, but this does not look good.

Help With Calculating Duration Time

Oct 14, 2005

I have a table called Tickets which contains ticket information for a machine. Each machine can have more than one ticket number opened at the same time. The ticket number contains start date/time and end date/time of the ticket. Thereefore the table looks something like this:

Ticket_No (int)
Machine_No (int)
Description (char)
Start_Time (datetime)
End_Time (datetime)

I want to be able to calculate total duration time(in hours) that EACH MACHINE had a ticket open...but here is the tricky part. The total duration time that a machine had ticket open has to encompas any tickets that may fall in the same time period. For example:
If Machine A has a ticket open at 8:30 and the ticket is closed at 10:00. Meanwhile, Machine A had another separate ticket open at 9:30 which was closed at 10:30. In this case, the total duration time for this machine would be from 8:30 to 10:30 for a total of 2 hrs duration time.

Can anyone help me get started in tackling this problem or provide any examples?

The Duration (in seconds) 1.39, 1.09, 0.16 and CPU (in seconds) 0.97, 0.95, 0.16 respectively for some SQL statements. How do I know what is the normal baseline for duration and CPU in order to determine the CPU intensive SQL statements.

Secondly same question for long running procedure duration 0.14, 0.11. What is the normal baseline here. Is this normal or too long.

Calculating Duration Time

Dec 13, 2007

Hi guys, I am having difficulty calculating the time duration between receiving process to shipping process.
I have a table that consists of: Order#, Processes, Time_In, Time_Out.
Order# can be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
While at the same time Order# 1 can go through more than one process, i.e.: Receiving, VisualTest, MechanicalTest, ..., Shipping.
Every Order# does not necessarily goes through all processes, but surely they will go through receiving process and shipping process.
For each process we will have recorded time when the order# comes in and when it finishes with each process.
I need to calculate the length of time from Time_In from Receiving to Time_Out in Shipping.

I.E.:

Order# | Process | Time_In | Time_out
1 | Receiving | 2007-12-1 10:00:00.000 | 2007-12-1 10:10:00.000

Profiler Duration Column Value.

Jul 12, 2007

Hi Experts,

We have a VLDB ( few table with above 200 million records ). This database is used for performance testing by simulating for 150 users and executing all necessary functional flows.

When I examined the profiler results , I could see some very high values as shown below in the duration column for many events.

1521729
3462142
1624325
3211255
1248276
3903998

Does it mean that that SP or the T-Sql statement is taking this much time in milliseconds to execute and give the output ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks & Regards,

ExecutionLog Duration - Is It Settable?

Jan 8, 2007

Please forgive the stupidity of this question - it should be something very easy and I'm just not seeing it.

I am trying to set the duration of the ExecutionLog table. Currently it is ~ 1 week, and I would like to up the lifetime of the records - say, to 1 year. I would think this is as easy as changing a .config file value, but am unable to find something for this. I found the entry for the log files, but nothing for the execution log.

In the past I have tinkered with the Execution History DTS package, which would need to be scheduled to run and pull over only the newest records - is there anything else besides this? (just let them sit in the table?)

Thanks in advance,

John

Duration In Profiler Traces

Jul 20, 2007

Hi



I have a procedure in a history database that does insert into 3 tables inside a transaction. users complaint that the proc sometimes takes too long during heavy usage. I did some traces to see what is taking up the time, I found that the rpc duration was averaging > 500 ms (should only take 50ms). I checked to see if one of that statements were taking too much time, but only see the commit transaction statement taking around 500 ms). I check the avg disk queue to be around 30. ( this is on a single local disk) .



So is this definitely a disk issue, or is there something else I need to check

How To Capture The Duration Of Bcp Process Into A Variable

Nov 19, 1998

Hi, I am interested to know how I can capture the amount of time bcp takes in a table.... the whole idea is to keep track of all bcp activities and create atable to keep bcp log time to the following table:
create table bcp_log(table_name char(20),row_count int,time_in datetime)

what I thought is to create a trigger on each table I want to log its bcp. then declare a variable and assign the duration of bcp .. But I did not know where to pull that value..... Dose anyone knows how to capture the duration of bcp for a table....

Going Crazy With Inconsistant Batch Duration

First; thanks for looking.

On SQL Server 2000. IBM X series, dual 2GHz Xeon processors, 3GB RAM, RAID 5 DB array and separate Mirrored drive for OS, Windows 2000 Server.

Note: I should have moved the log files to the mirrored volume - I only just noticed it wasn't like that ... oops.:o It only has the OS and backup files (different logical volumes).

Problem: I have a Bill of Material system. It has a batch (Stored Procedure) that explodes Order Line Items. Each line has about 40 components.

The SP has 5 major steps to explode the Assembly, figure out colors/sizes to get the actual part numbers, assign quantities, update flags on the line item table (that has 3,500,000 rows but is not a clustered index - fill factor 85% on the unique autonumber index I use for the updates). The SP is jam packed with User Function calls, sub-Stored Procedures, and (yes) some cursors (on small declared temp tables created for each Order Line processed).

The execution plan for the whole batch of 100 is humongous - like 1000 pages, however nearly all steps are about 16 - 40 milliseconds to execute.

It normally takes 13 seconds to process 100 line items (3900 assembly rows created). However; about every 20th run, it takes 2 or 3 minutes ON THE VERY SAME LINE ITEMS. No programming changes! Run back-to-back, or with a minute or two delay. Then running it again, back to 13 seconds. Sometimes it takes 25 or so seconds, but that oddball 3 minutes is a killer.

I put some timing INSERTs into a temporary log file to localize the problem.

So; here's the REALLY weird thing. The part that experiences the intermittent 2 minute delay is a VERY SIMPLE call to a SP that INSERTs to the tbBATCHs table and gets the identity and passes it back with an Output variable. The tbBATCHs table only has about 8 columns. Nobody else uses it so it's not locking. It has an "If Exists" selection following the Insert to see if another batch is in progress not yet flagged as complete, but's not the issue because it's never true (hard coded values for testing forces this).

I have a Standby Server (duplicate config of main server) so I ran it there. Same issue.

If I loop 100 times on the tbBATCHs INSERT SP, it is pretty quick (like 2 seconds for all 100).

It's never on the first run, so I think it may be some sort of Log File catch-up.

Also; I DO NOT have Transaction Logging in place yet.

Ideas?
