I am using IBM Data Studio to access data on an AS400, I cannot figure out how to programmatically find the first and last date of the previous month to use in an BETWEEN clause. For example, if I ran it today it would return 20211201 and 20211231. I have done some other date math in the past but this one is beyond me. Below is an example of a date function I have used successfully in this version of SQL.
{DEC(DATE(DAYS((CURRENT_DATE) - 15 DAY)))}
Try
DATE(YEAR(CURRENT_DATE)||'-'||MONTH(CURRENT_DATE)||'-1') - 1 MONTH
and
DATE(YEAR(CURRENT_DATE)||'-'||MONTH(CURRENT_DATE)||'-1') - 1 DAY

I am trying to dynamically get the dates, starting from begging of month to current date using SSAS Tabular - DAX, I have tried many date functions but I couldn't end up with solution, so is there any idea to share pls ?
The following DAX function will return a table of DATES for each day from the start of the current month through today:
DatesMTD = CALENDAR(DATE(YEAR(TODAY()), MONTH(TODAY()), 1), TODAY())
To be able to filter the dates for the first 10 days, create a calculated column that identifies as a date in this range
1st to 10th Date = If(Day([Date]) <11,1,0)
This can then be used to either filter out the dates past the 10th of each month
This question already has answers here:
SQL Query to find the last day of the month
(15 answers)
Closed 5 years ago.
I have a table with a list of clients, with a column that shows the date their accounts were created. I want to make the last day of this date. I tried using the EOMONTH function, but it does not work.
For instance, if client 1 came on January 6th, and client 2 came on February 6th of this year, I want it to show 31-01-2018 and 28-02-2018.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Gordon is right, I have tried EOMONTH for your given data and it returns perfect value look at below, in second parameter you have to pass value as per requirement if you pass value as 1 it will give you last date of next month i.e Jan+1=Feb
DECLARE #myDate Datetime='06-Jan-2018'
SELECT EOMONTH(#myDate,0) AS MyDate
If your version not support the EOMONTH function then try below query:
SELECT CAST(DATEADD(s,-1,DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(m,0,#myDate)+1,0)) AS DATE)
Output:
I have an SQL query I need to run once a month.
The data set the query produces always has to be from the 11th of the month before to the 10th of the current month.
I now manualy run the query in the fews days after the 11th day of the month manually adjusting the date range in my where statement:
for example...
Where Column A is greater than 10/10/2015 and less than 12/11/15
I was hoping there would be a statement I could add to my query to automatically find the 11th day of the last month and the 10th of the current month. This way I could schedule the query and automatically email the results.
You should be able to use the following within your query: -
CONVERT(date,FORMAT(GETDATE(),'yyyy-MM')+'-10')
(for the 10th of this month)
and
CONVERT(date,FORMAT(DATEADD(m,-1,GETDATE()),'yyyy-MM')+'-11')
(for the 11th of last month).
Try to look out the MONTH() function in your working DBMS. In MySQL and MSSQL it returns a number (1 been january) corresponding to the current month that your system is (you may check if it's date is updated).
With this function you can subtract 1 to get the last month, having to do some logic when the current one is January, hence 1. Since now you should get 12 (december) intead of 0 (an error).
Cheers, mate!
I'm pretty new to SQL so I hope this isn't a dumb question, tried to google but couldn't find anything.
I'm summing sales of departments per week in SQL and am using TD_SYSFNLIB.WEEKNUMBER_OF_YEAR (trans_dt) to get the week number.
I think everything is working except I'd like to change the format of the weeks to the start date of the week, e.g. week 1 = 1/4/15
Also, i'm not sure how to handle the very first of the year week 0 since I think that should be grouped up with week 52 of last year.
The following date math trick should get you Beginning of Week as an actual date without having to join to the SYS_CALENDAR view or using a function:
SELECT CURRENT_DATE - ((CURRENT_DATE - DATE '0001-01-07) MOD 7) AS BOW;
Starting with TD14 there's NEXT_DAY which returns the following weekday, if you subtract 7 days you get the previous day:
next_day(trans_dt - 7, 'sunday')
I want to put the following condition in my query ,but i don't know the correct syntax in informix to do that .
At least one year passed on his work date ..
So
I try some thing like that
b.work_date - CURRENT >= 12 -- 12 month
How to do that ?
You can do:
b.work_date <= CURRENT - 12 UNITS MONTH
You need to be careful with the CURRENT - 12 UNITS MONTH approach. It does not take the leap-day in February into account, and would explode with an Invalid day in date error if you ran it on 2012-04-29.
It is safer to write
b.work_date < TODAY - 365
