Im building a basic SSRS report that is a quote. I have a date field of when data was put into the system. On the quote I want to take that field and add 30 days to it so I can show that the quote is good for the next 30 days out. How would I write that in my expression in SSRS?
What I have so far:
=First(Fields!Date.Value, "DataSet1")
Use the DateAdd function.
Example: DateAdd("d", 30, First(Fields!Date.Value, "DataSet1"))

I have a crystal report I run weekly and manually update the dates to pull the last 7 days (not including today). I've tried to use 'in last7days' and/or {date} >= minimum(lastfullweek) + 1
and {date} <= maximum(lastfullweek) + 1. I can't get this query to run - I get an error saying a string is required here. My date format is yyyy-mm-dd. I need to update this report to run automatically - I don't want to run the report by manually updating the date range every week. Thanks in advance for your help!
You are probably comparing a string to a date. Check the data types of the elements in your expression. Most likely your {date} column is a string rather than a date.
See if you can convert it to a date (e.g. the cDate() function).
Try R-Tag Community Edition. It is free and has the option to set the dates and other values outside the report so you don't have to hardcode them inside the report.
Before I start, I want to say sorry my question might be little silly since I'm a newbie for CR.
I put a datediff formula in Crystal Report ver 14.0.12,
and it returns incorrect result for some special cases.
The formula is like below;
DATEDIFF('M',{START_DATE},{END_DATE})
If the start date is 2018-05-01 and the end date is 2020-04-30, the result should be like '24',
but it returns '23'.
It seems if the date range is in the first or final day, it has above error.
In addition, I have another issue with other formula.
I put below formula in order to get 'next date' of certain date field,
DATE(YEAR({date_field}),MONTH({date_field}),DAY({date_field}+1))
and it has an issue when the date field is 'end date' of certain month.
For example, if the date field is 2020-03-31, expected result is 2020-04-01,
but my formula returns like '2020-03-01'.
Please let me know what should I do in order to get correct result.
Thanks a lot:)
In regards to your DateDiff() function.
Did you possibly make a typo when asking your question? The first argument for the function is the intervalType and is a String expression, therefore it should be contained within double quotes; you have single quotes in your question. Using single quotes should throw a syntax error. Also, the intervalType for Month should be expressed as a lowercase "m".
As for your issue with adding 1 day to a date, I would recommend using the DateAdd(intervalType, nIntervals, startDateTime) function to complete this task. Try this formula instead:
DateAdd("d", 1, {date_field})
However, be aware that this function will return a DateTime value, so if you want to remove the timestamp from the date that is returned, you will want to cast the entire function as a Date datatype using the Date() function as follows:
Date(DateAdd("d", 1, {date_field}))
Single quote is fine. Source of the problem is that adding 1 to 31 is 32 (which gets wrapped back to 1 due to date logic).
Suggestion above to use DateAdd() is the correct solution.
I'm not even sure how to start writing this logic. I have help desk issues in a SQL database with a create date and a resolved date columns. I'm trying to display only the records in which their create date is 14 days or less than the resolved date. Right now the report prompts for the start date and end date. Now I want to modify it. How do I write this logic and in which section of the formula builder? I'm using CR 2011 Standard.
Quite new to this area so apologies if at all I sound vague. I am trying to create date parameters in SSRS for CRM Dynamics2016.
Objective: To create a drop down containing: Last Year, Last Month, Fiscal Year, Year to Date and use them to filter field: Start Date in a table called Notification and return results
What I have tried before:
Created view with period (this will be like the field label), Begin Date and End Date but I soon realised that CRMDynamics online don't like sql anymore and that they are now more in line with fetchXML
My question is: Is there a way to pass the above mentioned date parameters in SSRS other than what I tried before?
Thanks a ton in advance for all your help!!
Cheers

The only way to achieve what you are trying to achieve is to dynamically calculate the date range parameters as all of your filter conditions can be broken down to date ranges.
Create a regular SSRS drop down parameter (Name - "DateRange") with all the possible filter conditions LastYear, LastMonth, FiscalYear, YearToDate with the same label and values
Add additional parameters StartDateOnOrAfter and StartDateOnOrBefore, for each specify the "Default Values" as "Specify Values" and use the expression to calculate your parameters, for example:
For parameter - FiscalYear - StartDateOnOrAfter - 01/01/currentyear, StartDateOnOrBefore - 12/31/currentyear
For parameter - LastMonth - StartDateOnOrAfter - Compute 1 day last month, StartDateOnOrBefore - Compute last day last month
... so on and so forth.
Im pretty new to crystal reporting ,I need a formula to to iterate through the date field.All it took is a date field as dynamic input-{?startdate}
I need the page should display 30 days/date from that dates in reports..(I got to display other data to pull in between these date fielded captions.)This is a quick requirement ,I know i should have made some investigation before posting here..Any help is greatly appreciated.Thanks!
You can do two things:
Set your date parameter to allow for range values (user enters start date and end date)
Add 30 days to the day of your chosen date datefield in [{?startdate}, DateAdd('d', 30, {?startdate})]
Hope that helps,
