I have table Proccesses that consist of Date Time Field.
Proccesses ( Id as int , RunDate as DateTime)
I need to run Distinct by RunDate as Time Without seconds
For Example
ID RunDate
1 2011-12-13 12:36:26.483
2 2011-12-12 12:37:22.421
3 2011-12-11 12:36:44.421
I need to receive in output
Output
12:01
12:03
In order to retrieve it I using following SQL and it's working
SELECT DISTINCT DATENAME(hour, RunDateTime) + ':' +
DATENAME(mi, RunDateTime) AS d
from Proccesses
The problem that if minutes is less than 10 for example 8
I receiving single digit "8" , and I want to receive two digit 08
For example I receive 12:8 , and I need to receive 12:08
try
SELECT DISTINCT
RIGHT ('00' + CAST(DATENAME(hour, RunDateTime) AS VARCHAR(2)), 2) + ':' +
RIGHT ('00' + CAST(DATENAME(mi, RunDateTime) AS VARCHAR(2)), 2)
from Proccesses
Alternatively you can use CONVERT as suggested by #JoeStefanelli and handle the string result accordingly.
CONVERT style 108 will return hh:mm:ss. Using CHAR(5) for the data type will return just the hh:mm portion.
SELECT DISTINCT CONVERT(CHAR(5), RunDateTime, 108) AS d
FROM Processes
SELECT RIGHT(CONVERT(VARCHAR,RunDateTime),7)
You could strip of the AM/PM if you want to.

Is there a way to find the number of days in a month in DB2. For example I have a datetime field which I display as Jan-2020, Feb-2020 and so on. Based on this field I need to fetch the number of days for that month. The output should be something like below table,
I'm using the below query
select reportdate, TO_CHAR(reportdate, 'Mon-YYYY') as textmonth from mytable
Expected output
ReportDate textMonth No of Days
1-1-2020 08:00 Jan-2020 31
1-2-2020 09:00 Feb-2020 29
12-03-2020 07:00 Mar-2020 31
Try this:
/*
WITH MYTABLE (reportdate) AS
(
VALUES
TIMESTAMP('2020-01-01 08:00:00')
, TIMESTAMP('2020-02-01 09:00:00')
, TIMESTAMP('2020-03-12 07:00:00')
)
*/
SELECT reportdate, textMonth, DAYS(D + 1 MONTH) - DAYS(D) AS NO_OF_DAYS
FROM
(
SELECT
reportdate, TO_CHAR(reportdate, 'Mon-YYYY') textMonth
, DATE(TO_DATE('01-' || TO_CHAR(reportdate, 'Mon-YYYY'), 'dd-Mon-yyyy')) D
FROM MYTABLE
);
Db2 has the function DAYS_TO_END_OF_MONTH and several others which you could use. Based on your month input, construct the first day of the month. This should be something like 2020-01-01 for Jan-2020 or 2020-02-01 for Feb-2020. Follow the link for several other conversion functions which allow you to transform between formats and to perform date arithmetics.
convert your column to a proper date and try this: day(last_day(date_column))
I'm trying to concatenate a column's date to a fixed time of the day and then CAST the whole thing as DATETIME.
The fixed time is 5:30am.
The date column I'm using needs to be adjusted as it shows the end date/time of when something ran; I want to use the start date/time.
The start date/time time is not available as its own column, but I have another column that has the duration the process took in seconds, so I can use DATEADD to roll the end date/time back to the start date/time.
Here's the full statement:
CAST(CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), DATEADD(ss,-ConfTask.[LastExecutedDuration], ConfTask.[LastExecutedDate]), 103) + ' ' + '05:30' as DATETIME)
Here's the error message I'm receiving:
The conversion of a varchar data type to a datetime data type resulted
in an out-of-range value.
I've tried testing these statements to investigate the issue, but they all run OK on their own:
CAST(CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 103) + ' ' + '05:30' as DATETIME)
CAST('2017-03-02' + ' ' + '05:30' as DATETIME)
DATEADD(ss,-ConfTask.[LastExecutedDuration], ConfTask.[LastExecutedDate])
I'm a bit stuck on how to get round this issue. Any help would be much appreciated.
Clearly, you must have some unexpected values in the column.
I would suggest finding them using a query such as this:
SELECT LastExecutedDuration, LastExecutedDate
FROM ConfTask
WHERE TRY_CONVERT(datetime,
CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),
DATEADD(second,
-ConfTask.[LastExecutedDuration],
ConfTask.[LastExecutedDate]
)
103
) + ' ' + '05:30')
)
You can also simplify the logic, by just using date functions:
select dateadd(minute,
5 * 60 + 30,
convert(datetime,
convert(date,
dateadd(second,
- ConfTask.LastExecutedDuration
ConfTask.LastExecutedDate
)
)
)
)
This worked:
CONVERT(DATETIME, CONVERT(CHAR(8), DATEADD(ss,-ConfTask.[LastExecutedDuration], ConfTask.[LastExecutedDate]), 112)) + ' ' + CONVERT(CHAR(8), '05:30:00', 108)
I'm trying to convert some MS Access queries to T-SQL to use in SSIS (basically converting Access db to SQL server 2008) and I'm having trouble converting an IIF() statement. I tried several approaches and it always resulted in an error.
The query creates a column with dates that are "original Date + 2 years if the condition is met and original Date + 1 if the condition is not met". The first part of the IIF() eliminates the case of the original year being a leap year and so the possibility of generating a non-existing date.
The original IIF() statement is:
IIf((Day(Date)=29 And Month(Date)=2),
IIf(Desc Like "*" & "123" & "*",
DateSerial(Year(Date)+2,Month(Date),Day(Date)-1),
DateSerial(Year(Date)+1,Month(Date),Day(Date)-1)),
IIf(Desc Like "*" & "123" & "*",
DateSerial(Year(Date)+2,Month(Date),Day(Date)),
DateSerial(Year(Date)+1,Month(Date),Day(Date)))) AS Term
So the problem is not only an IIF() statement but also DATESERIAL function. I found the solution for the DATESERIAL() function using CAST() (SQL server 2008 does not have the DATEFROMPARTS() function...).
I tried using CASE() like this:
CASE
WHEN DAY(Date)=29 AND Month(Date)=2 THEN
CASE
WHEN Desc LIKE "%123%" THEN
CAST(CAST(YEAR(Date)+2 AS VARCHAR(4)) + RIGHT('0' + CAST(MONTH(Date) AS VARCHAR(2)), 2) + RIGHT('0' + CAST(DAY(Date)-1 AS VARCHAR(2)), 2) AS DATETIME )
ELSE CAST(CAST(YEAR(Date)+1 AS VARCHAR(4)) + RIGHT('0' + CAST(MONTH(Date) AS VARCHAR(2)), 2) + RIGHT('0' + CAST(DAY(Date)-1 AS VARCHAR(2)), 2) AS DATETIME ) END
ELSE CASE
WHEN Desc LIKE "%123%" THEN
THEN CAST(CAST(YEAR(Date)+2 AS VARCHAR(4)) + RIGHT('0' + CAST(MONTH(Date) AS VARCHAR(2)), 2) + RIGHT('0' + CAST(DAY(Date) AS VARCHAR(2)), 2) AS DATETIME )
ELSE CAST(CAST(YEAR(Date)+1 AS VARCHAR(4)) + RIGHT('0' + CAST(MONTH(Date) AS VARCHAR(2)), 2) + RIGHT('0' + CAST(DAY(Date) AS VARCHAR(2)), 2) AS DATETIME )END END AS Term
I also tried using COAELSCE() but with no better outcome.
I really don't know if I have made some kind of syntax error or where the problem could be.
Thank you in advance for any help.
edit: I'll add error message I'm getting: Incorrect syntax near '...'. The '...' changes as I try different approaches, sometimes its ELSE, THEN etc.
SQL Server's DATEADD may help to simplify things here...
CASE WHEN (<your condition>)
THEN DATEADD(YEAR, 1, [OriginalDate])
ELSE DATEADD(YEAR, 2, [OriginalDate])
END
Should also cope with leap years too.
DateSerial is such a useful function to have around, just create your own.
I got my version from here:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.DateSerial
(
#year int,
#month int,
#day int
)
RETURNS datetime
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE #date datetime
-- convert date by adding together like yyyymmdd
SET #date = cast(#year * 10000 + 101 AS char(8));
-- Add to date the proper months subtracting 1, since we used 1 as start instead of zero.
SET #date = dateadd(mm , #month - 1 , #date)
-- Add to date the proper days subtracting 1, since we used 1 as start instead of zero.
SET #date = dateadd(dd , #day - 1 , #date);
RETURN #date ;
END;
GO
Here is another way: Date serial in SQL?
Then use the function just as you did in Access.
Edit: just noticed that your outer IIF is to handle leap years. This is not needed when using dateadd().
I'm trying to do a SUM of time values, but the output is rendered as 1900-01-01 05:46:11.740. Note the preceding date part 1900-01-01. I only want the time value.
Below is an example of what I have tried:
DATEADD(MS, SUM(DATEDIFF(MS, '00:00:00.000', R.[Result].value('(/Result/Time/text())[1]', 'datetime'))), '00:00:00.000')
R.[Result].value() is an XML value with format 00:00:00.000
Any idea what I am doing wrong please?
This guy wanted to calculate the sum of the field which has the time datatype.
The Answer on this post had a proper solution which may be helpful:
select cast(sum(datediff(second,0,dt))/3600 as varchar(12)) + ':' +
right('0' + cast(sum(datediff(second,0,dt))/60%60 as varchar(2)),2) +
':' + right('0' + cast(sum(datediff(second,0,dt))%60 as varchar(2)),2)
from TestTable
Reference : Calculate the SUM of the Column which has Time DataType:
I have a .NET 2010 app that bangs against a SQL db. On the app side, a user can search on Begin date and End Date. Bot of these are just Month + Year. I then format them so they are complete dates. So when they go to the stored proc they'll look like this...
Begin Date: 1/1/2011
End Date: 5/31/2011
But the date in the db is broken up into 3 int fields, Month,Day & Year, ...of which Day may or may not be filled in (0 if not). It would be ok for this to always default to one when running this query. So if the values in the db were Month=3, Day=0 Year=2011 I would like the sql statement to render as
Where FORMATTEDDATEHERE between '1/1/2011' and '5/31/2011'
I just can't figure out how to format sql fields in a where clause.
Did you try something like
WHERE CONVERT(DATETIME,
CONVERT(VARCHAR(4), [c_year]) + '/'
+ CONVERT(VARCHAR(2), [c_month]) + '/'
+ CONVERT(VARCHAR(2), [c_day]))
BETWEEN '2011/1/1' AND '2011/5/31'
Hope it helps
you could build the date using datadd functions within the WHERE clause EG.
SELECT ...
WHERE DATEADD(Day, field_days-1, DATEADD(Month, field_months-1, DATEADD(Year, field_years-1900, 0))) BETWEEN '1/1/2011' AND '5/31/2011'
Just replace field_days, field_months, field_years with the int fields on the table for days, months and year. This will return all records within the date range.
Is this what you require?
WHERE CAST(Year AS varchar) + RIGHT(100 + Month, 2) +
RIGHT(100 + COALESCE(NULLIF(Day, 0), 1), 2) BETWEEN ...
