DATEDIFF function in Oracle [duplicate]
(4 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I'm trying to compare the column: LastUpdated with todays date in days, rounded to 1 decimal place. I keep getting the error
ERROR at line 4:
ORA-00904: "DATEDIFF": invalid identifier
Any ideas?
SELECT
DISTINCT "AppName",
"ApprovedForRelease",
DATEDIFF(DAY,"LastUpdated",GETDATE()) AS "DaySinceUpdated"
FROM BR_APP
WHERE "ApprovedForRelease" = 'Y';
In Oracle, you can use subtraction. To get the dates between, truncate off the time:
SELECT DISTINCT "AppName", "ApprovedForRelease",
(TRUNC(sysdate) - TRUNC("LastUpdated")) AS "DaySinceUpdated"
FROM BR_APP
WHERE "ApprovedForRelease" = 'Y';
The code you have used is based on SQL Server.

How to get difference of days/months/years (datediff) between two dates?

I'm trying to get it as:
SELECT * FROM "Employee" WHERE TIMESTAMPDIFF('YEAR', "BirthDate", "HireDate");
but I get the next error:
ERROR: function timestampdiff(unknown, timestamp without time zone, timestamp without time zone) does not exist

^
HINT: No function matches the given name and argument types. You might need to add explicit type casts.
I've found another way to get difference between 2 dates but in my instructions it says that I have to get it via TIMESTAMPDIFF.
Can someone help me where to look and how to fix my error?
you can use minus operator
EXTRACT(DAY FROM (HireDate)-(BirthDate)) AS DateDifference
Example select date '2001-10-01' - date '2001-09-28'

How to extract only date value from date field in Oracle? [duplicate]
(3 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
I know this is simple but am having great difficulty, I need to take a query field that is datetime and convert it so that it is only date no time.
SELECT COSTLABR.CHARGDTTM
FROM imsv7.costlabr
Gets me the datetime field from chargdttm but I need it to only be date, or as an alternative the time to be exactly the same for every row returned.
This has got to be simple but it is eluding me.
Thanks in advance!

You can use the TRUNC function to truncate dates:
SELECT TRUNC(COSTLABR.CHARGDTTM)
FROM imsv7.costlabr
will set the HOURS, MINUTES, and SECONDS portions of the date column to zero, in effect changing the time to the preceding midnight.

How to get Time from DateTime format in SQL?
(19 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
I have one column in my Table with DateTime as its datatype.
Now I would like to remove the date part from the datetime column, and update the same column with only time part contained in it. How should I proceed?
Below is the column value :
1900-01-01 01:43:00.000
Expected value after update would be :
01:43:00.000
If you use SQL Server from version 2008 onwards you can use
SELECT CAST('1900-01-01 01:43:00.000' as TIME)
For earlier versions, use
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(20),'1900-01-01 01:43:00.000',108)
You can use this query for getting time from datetime format.
select cast(yourdatetimecol as time) [time]
from yourtable

I'm trying to find the difference between a TIMESTAMP(6) field and a DATE field in oracle sql to return number of days.
Anyone know how to convert these?
i tried to_date, to_number and a few other functions. I actually got it to work by using trunc on my datetimestamp
(a.date- trunc(b.datetimestamp))

I am using following query but it doesn't provide any meaningful output:
Select Cast(versionno as bigint) from BranchDetail
The value in Version column is like this : 0x000000000D2537F7
A TIMESTAMP has nothing to do with date and time. See this question. It is a ROWVERSION, not a date/time value.
