I have a project where I need to populate a table with a Begin and an end date based on another field with in the table. my example is that the other field will have a value of "monthly" I want then a record to be entered on the table with a begin date of November 1 and the en date as November 30th. I want this record to get populated only on business days. my thinking is a stored procedure that runs daily and only creates a record at a time. i am thinking if the user selects weekly the dates populated would be november 1 = begin date and Novemeber 2nd = end date
i want to fill out a current month at a time as if the account closes i will not need the extra cases.
I'm fairly new to MS SQL, but I'm trying to query the time elapse between two dates. Example below...
Select dbo.res.book_date, dbo.res.arrive_date, Cast (dbo.translog.systemdate as datetime) From dbo.res Where dbo.res.resid > '500'
The third line is where I need help with a statement. I need the elapse time. Ex. if the book date is 20050820100000 and the arrive date is 20050820120000, I would like the third Select statement to return 2:00 hours or something similar. Thanks.
I have a table in my sql server that calculates renewal dates for me, that date is based on the final suit date. The table has the ssn, and the FinalSuitDate its in a one to many relationship with the employeetable.
the Finalsuit table is suppose to calculate the renewal dates(which I'm trying to do in a query) my original expression in access was using dateserial FirstRenewal: DateSerial(Year([FINALSUITDONE])+2,Month([FINALSUITDONE])+1,Day([FINALSUITDONE])=30), but sql does not recognize that.
For Example
If the Finalsuit is 12/01/2000 then the renewal would be 12/31/2002 the renewal are to be done on the last day of the month and two years from the finalsuit date. Problems is I'm having problems doing this in sql servers query?
Hello, Can anyone out there tell me if there's a simple way to calculate the number of week days between two dates in TSQL? Need it to calc. average turnaround times, excluding weekends. Can do it v. easily in VB, but gets a little more tricky in TSQL as there's no way to return the number of Sundays and Saturdays between the two dates. Any help much appreciated !

I want to automatically populate an alternative date column with hijri (Arabic) dates. So I will have two date columns in my datawarehouse table, one is for gregorian dates, the other for the equivalent in Hijri - a bilingual date system if you like. Now I guess I could do it in the SSI ETL tool and use Julian Dates, but the problem is storing the resulting value. - what data type should I use for hijri dates?
The dates can be input by the user in either format, which means the alternate date has to be populated.
Eventually I hope to make a bilingual system, I don't understand the user-defined types or how to define them, but I suspect they could be used in someway to help. Why am I doing this? - well eventually I hope to populate a cube for analysis and deliver a dual-language-dashboard using the new CTP3 stuff.
Any suggestions on how I can make this dual-date system? - with a view to making a bilingual system eventually.
This function will return working hours between given 2 dates. This function assumes that the break is between 9:45 AM and 10 AM and that Lunch is between 12:30 PM and 1 PM. This function also assumes that the working hours are between 7:30 AM and 4 PM. There is a section for public holidays there. We have a table for that you might not so that piece needs to be fixed.

Ok, so I've been struggling with the logic behind this one for a while, so I thought I'd ask you guys for some ideas :)
Basically, I have the following table structure Employee(employee_number, continuous_start_date, ...)
The problem lies in working out a summary of service categories (0-6months, 7-12months, 13-24, 25+). I can work out the length of service in months with the following code
SELECT DateDiff(mm, continuous_start_date, GetDate()) AS 'Service in months' FROM employee
So the first stage is to summarise the length of service into groups as mentioned above.
Then the final stage is working out how many people are in each group!
Hope I have given enough information - and please do not post a full solution - just some hints on how to get the desired result ;)
I need a Query for calculating the fiscal_week based on the input dates (start_date and end_date), though I got a query from this forum, it is not giving me exact result.
the sample is in the excel file with the attachment.
In the excel:
First tab tells you the raw_data what I am using to find the Fiscal_week Second tab tell you the data where i found the mistake, and how I am expecting the output.
I also have attached the query I have got from this forum, query I have modified for fiscal week.
I am working with a data set containing several years' of monetary values. I have entries for past dates and the associated values, and I also have entries for future dates. I need to populate the values of the future date records with the values from the same date the previous year. Is there any way this can be done in Power Pivot?
How can I do this with Parameters? I can get a single parameter to filter for a single date (or even a combo list of the dates in DB). But I want my parameters to interact so that they specify a range. Is this possible?
Today I have got one scenario to calculate the (sum of days difference minus(-) the dates if the same date is appearing both in assgn_dtm and complet_dtm)/* Here goes the table schema and sample data */
IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[temp_tbl]') AND type in (N'U')) DROP TABLE [dbo].[temp_tbl] GO CREATE TABLE [dbo].[temp_tbl]( [tbl_id] [bigint] NULL, [cs_id] [int] NOT NULL, [USERID] [int] NOT NULL,
I have a table that has hotel guests and their start stay date and end stay date, i would like to insert into a new table the original information + add all days in between.
I want to know if there is a way to compare dates in the sql statement with dates that I input into a database and todays date. the datatype that I'm using is smalldatetime.The statement I used is:Select Date from Table where Date > 'Today.now'I get an errorCould this be done or is there another approach?
I have a table which records employees'time-off records. There are 6 columns in this TimeOff table. They are RequestID, EmpName, StartDate, EndDate, Type, NumofDays. I have another table which has all the dates from 01/01/1950 to 01/01/2056.
I am trying write a query which lists all the dates between the timeoff startdate and enddate, including the the start and end dates, but my query so far only lists the start and end date in a timeoff record:
SELECT D.[Date], Datename(dw,D.[Date]) AS Weekday FROM Dates D LEFT JOIN TimeOff T ON D.[Date] = T.OffStartDate OR D.[Date] = T.OffEndDate WHERE (OffType = 'Sick Day' AND EmpName = 'Cat White') AND (D.[Date] BETWEEN T.StartDate AND T.EndDate)
Has anyone ever written a function to retrieve all individual dates between two given dates? Using DATEDIFF I can get the number of days between two dates. However I need to iterate through the days to identify weekend and holiday dates. Has anyone ever written a function to do this?
So, if select datediff(d,'07/01/2007','07/15/2007') as NumOfDays returns 14, I'd need to iterate through the 14 days and get the weekends and holidays. Would I have to use a cursor to iterate through the days?
I want to sum up a column, but only summing up the top 25 quantites and then I want to subtract the sum of all quantities from the total of the top 25...how would this be done with t-sql?
Hi, What the best way to calculate the age given two datetimes. I tried using the DATEDIFF(yyy,startdate,enddate) but that seems to only compare the year and not look at the specific day.
I am looking for something that would return the following output
birthday= 12/6/1973 EndDate = 11/30/2001 then the age should be 27
If birthday = 12/6/1973 enddate = 12/11/1973 then the age should be 28
I'm in the process of developing a Kimball-method CRM data warehouse and I'd like to have Recency, Frequency, Monetary "scores" at the customer level. Am I better off creating these in the relational database and feeding them to SSAS or have SSAS do the aggregations and assign the "scores"?
Also, has anyone located any SSIS transform scripts that would calculated RFM scores? This is probably a pretty easy task in VB.net but I haven't gone down that road yet.
When users register with my site they give me their DoB, how can I work out an age from it. I was thinkin about doing it from the year, but that isnt very accurate. Can anyone help? thanks si! ps Id only want to work out how many years old they are. si!
I needed to come up with an algorithm to create unique user- friendly account numbers such as AC0000000001, AC0000000002, etc...Where they increment by 1. I created a SQL function that retrieves the previous number generated, adds 1 to it, inserts the new value into the table, then returns the new value. I started thinking, what if the function is ran at the same time? What if function # 1 creates the new number, and function #2 creates a new number as well before function #1 inserts it? Is this a possible scenario? If so, how do I lock the process until the function completes to prevent this? Thanks for any help you provide.
Hi, First off, let me state that i am new to ASP.net... and have had to hit the ground running... I have looked on the net but have not found a suitable explanation on how to do this. Let me explain what i am trying to do: In my aspx page, i have 2 dropdown boxes where the user will select a skill catagory, and then a skill. Based on that selection, i would like to compute what the Service line will be. There is a primary and foreign key on CatID on the skills and SkillCat tables. This data would need to be inserted into the another table aswell, and this would need to go into a report later. How do i go about doing this? Some examples would be greatly appreciated. And if you know of a good link, please post it for me. Skills Table
Hello, I am fairly new to this, but I need to write a query that calculates whether an order made a shipping cutoff based on creation time, and when it actually shipped, based on local customer time. All times in the table below are central time. Heres where it gets complicated for me. If the order was created after 8:00am local customer time the same day, and shipped prior to 5pm local customer time, it would be considered a pass, or a 1. If an order was created after 8am local customer time, BUT didnt ship until AFTER 5pm local customer time, it would be considered a failure or a 0. And to complicate things even more, if the order is created after 5pm local customer time, the order create time would be treated as it was created at 8am local customer time the following day local customer time, and would need to be shipped prior to 5pm local customer time that day. Would CASE be appropriate for this? Or am I thinking wrong? Any help would really be appreciated!!
Hi All, I have a table that of server names and their execution times that run in to hundreds of thousands of records. What i need is some SQL that gives me the median execution times for each of these different servers. At the moment i have some SQL that only gives me the median for all the records in the table not the median execution time for every different server name. For example my tables looks something like this;
Here is my SQL, hope someone can modify it and thanks in advance.
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT instance, exec_time AS median FROM (SELECT instance, exec_time FROM (SELECT TOP 1 exec_time = exec_time * 1.0, instance FROM (SELECT TOP 50 PERCENT exec_time, instance FROM llserverlogs ORDER BY exec_time) sub_a ORDER BY 1 DESC) sub_1 UNION ALL SELECT instance, exec_time FROM (SELECT TOP 1 exec_time = exec_time * 1.0, instance FROM (SELECT TOP 50 PERCENT exec_time, instance FROM llserverlogs ORDER BY exec_time DESC) sub_b ORDER BY 1) sub_2)
--Use the following formula to calculate a person's age in years in a stored procedure, --where @dob is the person's date of birth and @yyyymmdd is the date on which to determine the age:

--Notes: --Substitute "getdate()" for the @yyyymmdd variable if you want to determine the person's age right now. --The function divides by 365.25 to allow for leap years and uses the FLOOR function to make sure the function returns an integer. --The function DATEDIFF(year, @dob, @yyyymmdd) doesn't work because Microsoft chose to implement --the "year" part of the function to calculate the number of year boundaries crossed.
I have a very complicated project and for some reason I have decided to use SQL server as the backend database. I am new to it and have encountered my first problem. In basic terms what I want to be able to do is increment/decrement a field in a table according to something that happens in a different table. Where do I start?
So for example, a stereo system/cd player can have 10 cds at one particular time, when 2 cds are removed, then 8 slots are available. Then when 1 of the 2 remaining slots are filled then 1 slot remains and so on....so I want some sort of a counter field. Using that field I want to be able to generate a report on what is currently available.
Please Excuse my lame example but can anyone please help?
