So this is a new one, I am thinking. We have an Access query with 2 date fields fdate1 and fdate2. The fdate1 is always the first date, and fdate2 is always the second. The two are a range. What we need to do is query the table to find all the records where the record is at any point in the year 2010. So for instance, here is some pretend data:
Fname fdate1 fdate2
John 2/18/2008 5/08/2014
Mary 1/6/2010 6/21/2010
Jane 9/25/2010 4/13/2012
We need to know any records that involve the date range of 1/1/2010 - 12/31/2010. As you can see, the above records all match, but because they are 2 separate fields, I am not sure how to find that those 2 columns represent a date range and that date range does or does not overlap with the date range criteria. Make sense?
Any help is appreciated.
One approach would be to place the criteria >DateSerial(2010,1,1) on fdate2, and <DateSerial(2011,1,1) on fdate1.
select * from tablename
Where (fdate1 between '1/1/2010' and '12/31/2010') OR (fdate2 '1/1/2010' and '12/31/2010')

Have a date filter on the dashboard that allows for a custom date range:
Dashboard Date Filter
How can I add a the number of days in the filter to a formula? Just trying to show the number of days in column of a pivot table. In this example the date range is 45 days. The dataset doesn't have one record for each day, so a distinct count of days from the data set returns 42.
Is it possible to use the date from and date to filter values in formula? DDIFF([datefilter-from], [datefilter-to])
Extract the date from the fact table and create a dimension table which will contain all the dates.
Link the date column from fact table and dimension table. Use the dimension table's date column in filters.
Are you able to use MongoDB to combine rows of data into one row?
I'm using dates with year, month, day and hour. The data is shown per hour. Is there a way to combine data of the hours into just one day with data. I would basically remove the hour column and sum the hour data into per day data.
I'm not sure what you mean by "the data is shown per hour" - do you mean it's stored in the database that way?
MongoDB doesn't have rows and columns - the equivalent of a row is a document, and the column equivalent is a field. Unlike in traditional SQL, a field isn't just one piece of information (a string, number/date, boolean, null, etc). It can be more than one piece of data - it can be an array, or a document, or an array of documents, etc.
Anyway, based on the small amount of information I have on your situation, I'd absolutely design the data with the bucket pattern. https://www.mongodb.com/blog/post/building-with-patterns-the-bucket-pattern
You could $unset the 'measurements' array and just keep the sum/count fields if that's what you want.
If your data is already set in stone, then I'd use an aggregation pipeline to group all the documents ('rows') together - the group _id would be year, month, day, and you could sum/count/min/max/etc the data in the group too.
I have 3 tables, one with stocktakes conducted last year, one with stocktakes conducted this year and one with sales. All of them are joined by date to one table where I have dates.
Now the question is what can I do to get table with:
store name/ last year stocktake date/ this year stocktake date/ sum of sales from last year stocktake date to this year stocktake date.
If you choose store, than stocktake date from one table, stocktake from second table all looks good, the problem is that I can't get sales to show from/to.
C2Csales = calculate(sum(PP_SalesLessTax[SalesLessTax]),PP_SalesLessTax[date] >= [ly date])
[ly date] is just a measure with last year stocktake date
I have a feeling that this have to be very easy but have no idea how to get this work
thanks

please see data model. It is a part of bigger model but I have trimmed it so it is clear what is this about.

And here is what I need. Please see picture.
thanks for all responses

You don't need two tables to simulate years. You can have just one. The idea of last year should be calculated by a measure. If you have a complete date table with a day for each row without missing days then you can build time intelligence.
If I get you, you need something like this two measures:
Sales = sum(PP_SalesLessTax[SalesLessTax]
Sales LY = CALCULATE ( sum(PP_SalesLessTax[SalesLessTax] , SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR ( DatesTable[DateColumn] )
With this two measures you can take both of them on same visualizations to compare them.
The idea of having from and to can be solved on visualizations. The slicer with a date type column can create a range filter data that will apply for this two created measures.
How would i write a statement that would make specific group by's looking at the monthly date range/difference. Example:
org_group | date | second_group_by
A 30.10.2013 1
A 29.11.2013 1
A 31.12.2013 1
A 30.01.2015 2
A 27.02.2015 2
A 31.03.2015 2
A 30.04.2015 2
as long es there isnt a monthly date_diff > 1 it should be in the same second_group_by. I hope its clear enough for you to understand, the column second_group_by should be generated by the user...it doesnt exists in the table.
date diff between which rows though?
If you just want to separate years (or months or weeks) use
GROUP BY DATEPART(....)
That's Sybase or SQL Server but other SQLs will have equivalent.
If you have specific data ranges, get them into a table with start and end date-time and a monotonically increasing integer, join to that with a BETWEEN and GROUP BY the integer.
Table X has start_date and end_date and related information associated with these dates. BOTH stored in DB in date format.
I need to find a specific date say 12th-Jan-2000 and extract the rows whose date range includes this date.
Could someone please help me out. I am new to SQL so need some guidance here.
Table X:
ID |start_date|end_date
1 |12/30/1999|01/12/2000
2 |01/20/2000|01/30/2000
3 |01/07/2000|01/15/2000
Thus my query should give back the ID-3 since 12th January falls in the range 01/07/2000-01/15/2000
Thanks
use the BETWEEN operator:
SELECT *
FROM TableX
WHERE DATE'2000-01-12' BETWEEN start_date AND end_date
