Next workday that not holiday in sql - sql

I have Holiday table that contains all holidays in it.
How can I get next work day from given date in one SQL query and not use FOR Loop like below?
DECLARE
givendate DATE := TO_DATE('2019-07-01', 'YYYY-MM-DD');
out NUMBER := 1;
BEGIN
WHILE out != 0 LOOP
SELECT
COUNT(*)
INTO out
FROM
holiday h
WHERE
trunc(h.holiday_date) = trunc(givendate);
IF out != 0 THEN
givendate := givendate + 1;
END IF;
END LOOP;
DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line(givendate);
END;


SELECT MIN(hd)
FROM (
select TO_DATE('2019-07-01', 'YYYY-MM-DD') as hd from dual
union
select trunc(h.holiday_date + 1)
FROM
holiday h
WHERE
trunc(h.holiday_date) >= TO_DATE('2019-07-01', 'YYYY-MM-DD')
) t left join holiday h2 on trunc(h2.holiday_date) = t.hd
WHERE h2.holiday_date IS NULL;


You may want to use a hierarchical query:
select nvl(max(holiday_date)+1, trunc(sysdate))
from holiday
connect by holiday_date = prior holiday_date + 1
start with holiday_date = trunc(sysdate)
It works like that:
if sysdate is a holiday, it builds a chain of continuous holidays and then returns max holiday_date + 1 as thenext business date
if sysdate is not a holiday, it returns sysdate (nvl() does that when max returns null)
So just replace trunc(sysdate) with your given_date and it should work just as your piece of code.

I'm unable to find tabular format result in oracle sql developer

I'm unable to get output as tabular format.
DECLARE
prev VARCHAR2(10) := 'sysdate+1';
tdy VARCHAR2(10) := 'sysdate';
v_dt VARCHAR2(10);
result resultset;
BEGIN
v_dat :=
CASE
WHEN trunc(sysdate) = trunc(currnet_date) THEN
tdy
ELSE prev
END;
WITH
yesterday AS (
SELECT
src_dim_id,
rec_count
FROM
tab_total_last_updated
WHERE
to_char(dw_insert_datetime, 'mm-dd-yy') = CASE
WHEN TRIM(to_char(v_dt, 'DAY', 'NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE=ENGLISH')) =
'MONDAY' THEN
to_char(v_dt - 3, 'mm-dd-yy')
ELSE
to_char(v_dt - 1, 'mm-dd-yy')
END
AND table_type = 'EXT'
)
SELECT
*
INTO result
FROM
yesterday;
RETURN result;
END;
I'm trying to pass value sysdate into v_dt as per the condition but I'm unable to proceed with my code please help on this one.

You have many typos in your code v_dat should be v_dt, current_date is misspelt.
You cannot RETURN a result as you are using an anonymous PL/SQL block and not a function.
Also, you probably do not want to use PL/SQL and just want an SQL query (and do not need the sub-query factoring clause):
SELECT src_dim_id,
rec_count
FROM tab_total_last_updated
WHERE dw_insert_datetime >= CASE TRUNC(SYSDATE) - TRUNC(SYSDATE, 'IW')
WHEN 0 THEN TRUNC(SYSDATE) - 3 -- Monday
WHEN 6 THEN TRUNC(SYSDATE) - 2 -- Sunday
ELSE TRUNC(SYSDATE) - 1
END
AND dw_insert_datetime < CASE TRUNC(SYSDATE) - TRUNC(SYSDATE, 'IW')
WHEN 0 THEN TRUNC(SYSDATE) - 2 -- Monday
WHEN 6 THEN TRUNC(SYSDATE) - 1 -- Sunday
ELSE TRUNC(SYSDATE)
END
AND table_type = 'EXT';
It is unclear what you are trying to achieve using:
v_dt := CASE
WHEN trunc(sysdate) = trunc(current_date)
THEN SYSDATE
ELSE SYSDATE + 1
END;
But you appear to be trying to correct for differences between the dates on the server and the client. In which case either:
Use CURRENT_DATE throughout the above code instead of SYSDATE; or
Use a specific time zone and replace SYSDATE with, for example, SYSTIMESTAMP AT TIME ZONE 'UTC'.

add n working days including custom holiday list in oracle plsql

I need to find the 'n'th business day in oracle plsql function which should exclude weekends and custom list of holidays. I got something like this however unable to fit the custom holiday logic in here,
create or replace function add_n_working_days (
start_date date, working_days pls_integer
) return date as
end_date date := start_date;
counter pls_integer := 0;
begin
if working_days = 0 then
end_date := start_date;
elsif to_char(start_date, 'fmdy') in ('sat', 'sun') then
end_date := next_day(start_date, 'monday');
end if;
while (counter < working_days) loop
end_date := end_date + 1;
if to_char(end_date, 'fmdy') not in ('sat', 'sun') then
counter := counter + 1;
end if;
end loop;
return end_date;
end add_n_working_days;
/
I have the custom holiday list in a different table which can be extracted using the sql
select holidays from holiday_table
I tried adding elsif condition with a sub query but that is not supported
if to_char(end_date, 'fmdy') not in ('sat', 'sun') then
counter := counter + 1;
elsif to_char(end_date, 'YYYYMMDD') in (select holidays from holiday_table) then
counter := counter + 1;
end if;

I will try with counting the number of weekend days with a similar loop:
WHILE (v_copy > 0) LOOP
end_date := end_date + 1;
IF to_char(end_date, 'fmdy') IN ('sat', 'sun') THEN
end_date := end_date + 1;
ELSE
v_copy := v_copy - 1;
END IF;
END LOOP;
And then after the looping process you can count the number of holidays in the table which are after the start_date and end_date and not in ('sat', 'sun').
SELECT COUNT(*) INTO v_custom_cnt
FROM holiday_table
WHERE to_char(holidays, 'fmdy') not in ('sat', 'sun') AND
holidays BETWEEN start_date AND end_date;
Now add this number to your end_date and you will get the date of the nth business day. Of course before returning check if the new end_date is in ('sat', 'sun').
end_date := end_date + v_custom_cnt;
IF to_char(holidays, 'fmdy') in ('sat', 'sun') THEN
end_date := next_day(end_date, 'monday');
END IF;
Finally the end_date is the date of the nth working day.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION add_n_working_days (
start_date DATE,
working_days PLS_INTEGER
) RETURN DATE AS
end_date DATE := start_date;
counter PLS_INTEGER := 0;
v_copy PLS_INTEGER := working_days;
v_custom_cnt INTEGER := 0;
BEGIN
IF working_days = 0 THEN
end_date := start_date;
ELSIF to_char(start_date, 'fmdy') IN ('sat', 'sun') THEN
end_date := next_day(start_date, 'monday');
END IF;
WHILE (v_copy > 0) LOOP
end_date := end_date + 1;
IF to_char(end_date, 'fmdy') IN ('sat', 'sun') THEN
end_date := end_date + 1;
ELSE
v_copy := v_copy - 1;
END IF;
END LOOP;
SELECT COUNT(*) INTO v_custom_cnt
FROM holiday_table
WHERE to_char(end_date, 'fmdy') NOT IN ('sat', 'sun')
AND holidays BETWEEN start_date AND end_date;
end_date := end_date + v_custom_cnt;
IF to_char(end_date, 'fmdy') IN ('sat', 'sun') THEN
end_date := next_day(start_date, 'monday');
END IF;
RETURN end_date;
END add_n_working_days;
It is not 100% tested

Different approach: create a table that only lists business day and take nth value:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION add_n_working_days (
start_date DATE, working_days PLS_INTEGER
) RETURN DATE AS
l_end_date DATE := start_date;
l_counter pls_integer := 0;
BEGIN
SELECT
business_day
INTO l_end_date
FROM
(
WITH
dates AS
(SELECT start_date + level - 1 as dt FROM dual CONNECT BY level < 100)
,weekdates AS
(SELECT dt as weekday FROM dates WHERE TO_CHAR(dt,'fmdy') NOT IN ('sat','sun'))
,business_days AS
(
SELECT weekday as business_day FROM weekdates
MINUS
SELECT holiday FROM so_holidays
)
SELECT business_day, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY 1) as rn from business_days
)
WHERE rn = working_days + 1;
RETURN l_end_date;
END add_n_working_days;

SQL is set orientated so start thinking in terms of sets NOT iteration (no loops). Assuming you can designate a maximum number of days to be tested you can get what you want with a single simple query.
create or replace function add_n_working_days (
start_date date, working_days pls_integer
) return date as
working_date_ot date;
begin
with date_list as (select trunc(start_date) + level - 1 tdate
from dual
connect by level <= 5*working_days
)
select tdate
into working_date_ot
from ( select tdate, row_number() over(order by tdate) date_num
from date_list
where to_char(tdate,'fmdy') not in ('sat','sun')
and not exists
(select null
from holiday_dates
where trunc(holiday_date) = tdate
)
)
where date_num = working_days;
return working_date_ot;
end add_n_working_days;
How it works:
The function assumes the desired date exists within 5 times the number of days requested. So if 10 business hence are requested the resulting date will be within 50 days (that would be a whole lot of holidays if not).
The date_list CTE builds a list of potential dates out to the identified limit.
The sub select in the main filters the generated list eliminating Sat and Sun. It then probes the holiday table for the remaining dates and eliminating any any date in the table.
Remaining dates are numbered based on ascending value.
The main outer select then chooses the date number matching the working_days specified.
No Looping required. Just my .02 cents worth.

Business days between two dates with calendar table [duplicate]

I am trying to calculate business days between two dates in Oracle select. I got to the point when my calculation gives most results correct for given dates (I compare it with NETWORKDAYS in excel) but sometimes it varies from 2 days to -2 days - and I don't know why...
Here's my code:
SELECT
((to_char(CompleteDate,'J') - to_char(InstallDate,'J'))+1) - (((to_char(CompleteDate,'WW')+ (52 * ((to_char(CompleteDate,'YYYY') - to_char(InstallDate,'YYYY'))))) - to_char(InstallDate,'WW'))*2) as BusinessDays
FROM TABLE
Thanks!

The solution, finally:
SELECT OrderNumber, InstallDate, CompleteDate,
(TRUNC(CompleteDate) - TRUNC(InstallDate) ) +1 -
((((TRUNC(CompleteDate,'D'))-(TRUNC(InstallDate,'D')))/7)*2) -
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SUN' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) -
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SAT' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as BusinessDays
FROM Orders
ORDER BY OrderNumber;
Thanks for all your responses !

I took into account all the different approaches discussed above and came up with a simple query that gives us the number of working days in each month of the year between two dates:
WITH test_data AS
(
SELECT TO_DATE('01-JAN-14') AS start_date,
TO_DATE('31-DEC-14') AS end_date
FROM dual
),
all_dates AS
(
SELECT td.start_date, td.end_date, td.start_date + LEVEL-1 as week_day
FROM test_data td
CONNECT BY td.start_date + LEVEL-1 <= td.end_date)
SELECT TO_CHAR(week_day, 'MON'), COUNT(*)
FROM all_dates
WHERE to_char(week_day, 'dy', 'nls_date_language=AMERICAN') NOT IN ('sun' , 'sat')
GROUP BY TO_CHAR(week_day, 'MON');
Please feel free to modify the query as needed.

Try this:
with holidays as
(
select d from (
select minDate + level -1 d
from (select min(submitDate) minDate, max (completeDate) maxDate
from t)
connect by level <= maxDate - mindate + 1)
where to_char(d, 'dy', 'nls_date_language=AMERICAN') not in ('sun' , 'sat')
)
select t.OrderNo, t.submitDate, t.completeDate, count(*) businessDays
from t join holidays h on h.d between t.submitDate and t.completeDate
group by t.OrderNo, t.submitDate, t.completeDate
order by orderno
Here is a sqlfiddle demo

I changed my example to more readable and to return count of bus. days between. I do not know why you need 'J'- Julian format. All it takes is start/Install and end/Complete dates. You will get correct number of days between 2 dates using this. Replace my dates with yours, add NLS if needed...:
SELECT Count(*) BusDaysBtwn
FROM
(
SELECT TO_DATE('2013-02-18', 'YYYY-MM-DD') + LEVEL-1 InstallDate -- MON or any other day
, TO_DATE('2013-02-25', 'YYYY-MM-DD') CompleteDate -- MON or any other day
, TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('2013-02-18', 'YYYY-MM-DD') + LEVEL-1, 'DY') InstallDay -- day of week
FROM dual
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= (TO_DATE('2013-02-25', 'YYYY-MM-DD') - TO_DATE('2013-02-18', 'YYYY-MM-DD')) -- end_date - start_date
)
WHERE InstallDay NOT IN ('SAT', 'SUN')
/
SQL> 5

I see that marked final solution is not correct always. Suppose, InstallDate is 1st of the month (if falls on Saturday) and CompleteDate is 16th of the month (if falls on Sunday)
In that case, actual Business Days is 10 but the marked query result will give the answer as 12. So, we have to treat this type of cases too, which I used
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SAT' AND TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SUN' THEN 2 ELSE 0 END
line to handle it.
SELECT OrderNumber, InstallDate, CompleteDate,
(TRUNC(CompleteDate) - TRUNC(InstallDate) ) +1 -
((((TRUNC(CompleteDate,'D'))-(TRUNC(InstallDate,'D')))/7)*2) -
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SUN' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) -
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SAT' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) -
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SAT' AND TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SUN' THEN 2 ELSE 0 END)as BusinessDays
FROM Orders
ORDER BY OrderNumber;

The accepted solution is quite close but seems wrong in some cases (e.g., 2/1/2015 through 2-28/2015 or 5/1/2015 through 5/31/2015). Here's a refined version...
end_date-begin_date+1 /* total days */
- TRUNC(2*(end_date-begin_date+1)/7) /* weekend days in whole weeks */
- (CASE
WHEN TO_CHAR(begin_date,'D') = 1 AND REMAINDER(end_date-begin_date+1,7) > 0 THEN 1
WHEN TO_CHAR(begin_date,'D') = 8 - REMAINDER(end_date-begin_date+1,7) THEN 1
WHEN TO_CHAR(begin_date,'D') > 8 - REMAINDER(end_date-begin_date+1,7) THEN 2
ELSE 0
END) /* weekend days in partial week */
AS business_days
The part that handles the multiples of 7 (whole weeks) is good. But, when considering the partial week portion, it depends on both the day-of-week offset and the number of days in the partial portion, according to the following matrix...
654321
1N 111111
2M 100000
3T 210000
4W 221000
5R 222100
6F 222210
7S 222221

To just remove sundays and saturdays you can use this
SELECT Base_DateDiff
- (floor((Base_DateDiff + 0 + Start_WeekDay) / 7))
- (floor((Base_DateDiff + 1 + Start_WeekDay) / 7))
FROM (SELECT 1 + TRUNC(InstallDate) - TRUNC(InstallDate, 'IW') Start_WeekDay
, CompleteDate - InstallDate + 1 Base_DateDiff
FROM TABLE) a
Base_DateDiff counts the number of days between the two dates
(floor((Base_DateDiff + 0 + Start_WeekDay) / 7)) counts the number of sundays
(floor((Base_DateDiff + 1 + Start_WeekDay) / 7)) counts the number of saturdays
1 + TRUNC(InstallDate) - TRUNC(InstallDate, 'IW') get 1 for mondays to 7 for sunday

This query can be used to go backward N days from the given date (business days only)
For example, go backward 15 days from 2017-05-17:
select date_point, closest_saturday - (15 - offset + floor((15 - offset) / 6) * 2) from(
select date_point,
closest_saturday,
(case
when weekday_num > 1 then
weekday_num - 2
else
0
end) offset
from (
select to_date('2017-05-17', 'yyyy-mm-dd') date_point,
to_date('2017-05-17', 'yyyy-mm-dd') - to_char(to_date('2017-05-17', 'yyyy-mm-dd'), 'D') closest_saturday,
to_char(to_date('2017-05-17', 'yyyy-mm-dd'), 'D') weekday_num
from dual
))
Some brief explanation: suppose we want to go backward N days from a given date
- Find the closest Saturday that is less than or equal to the given date.
- From the closest Saturday, go back ward (N - offset) days. offset is the number of business days between the closest Saturday and the given date (excluding the given date).
*To go back M days from a Saturday (business days only), use this formula DateOfMonthOfTheSaturday - [M + Floor(M / 6) * 2]

Here you go...
First check how many days you got in the holiday table, excluding weekend days.
Get business days (MON to FRI) between the 2 dates and after that subtract the holiday days.
create or replace
FUNCTION calculate_business_days (p_start_date IN DATE, p_end_date IN DATE)
RETURN NUMBER IS
v_holidays NUMBER;
v_start_date DATE := TRUNC (p_start_date);
v_end_date DATE := TRUNC (p_end_date);
BEGIN
IF v_end_date >= v_start_date
THEN
SELECT COUNT (*)
INTO v_holidays
FROM holidays
WHERE day BETWEEN v_start_date AND v_end_date

- GREATEST (NEXT_DAY (v_end_date, 'MON') - v_end_date - 3, 0)

ELSE
RETURN NULL;
END IF;
END calculate_business_days;
After that you can test it out, like:
select
calculate_business_days('21-AUG-2013','28-AUG-2013') as business_days
from dual;

There is another easier way, using connect by and dual...
with t as (select to_date('30-sep-2013') end_date, trunc(sysdate) start_date from dual)select count(1) from dual, t where to_char(t.start_date + level, 'D') not in (1,7) connect by t.start_date + level <= t.end_date;
with connect by you get all the dates from start_date till the end_date. Then you can exclude the dates you don't need and count only the needed.

This would return business days:
(CompleteDate-InstallDate)-2*FLOOR((CompleteDate-InstallDate)/7)-
DECODE(SIGN(TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'D')-
TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'D')),-1,2,0)+DECODE(TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'D'),7,1,0)-
DECODE(TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'D'),7,1,0) as BusinessDays,

I see that marked final solution is not correct always. Suppose, InstallDate is 1st of the month (if falls on Saturday) and CompleteDate is 16th of the month (if falls on Sunday)
In that case, actual Business Days is 10 but the marked query result will give the answer as 12. So, we have to treat this type of cases too, which I used
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SAT' AND TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SUN' THEN 2 ELSE 0 END
line to handle it.
SELECT OrderNumber, InstallDate, CompleteDate,
(TRUNC(CompleteDate) - TRUNC(InstallDate) ) +1 -
((((TRUNC(CompleteDate,'D'))-(TRUNC(InstallDate,'D')))/7)*2) -
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SUN' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) -
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SAT' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) -
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SAT' AND TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SUN' THEN 2 ELSE 0 END)as BusinessDays
FROM Orders
ORDER BY OrderNumber;

The accepted solution is quite close but seems wrong in some cases (e.g., 2/1/2015 through 2-28/2015 or 5/1/2015 through 5/31/2015). Here's a refined version...
end_date-begin_date+1 /* total days */
- TRUNC(2*(end_date-begin_date+1)/7) /* weekend days in whole weeks */
- (CASE
WHEN TO_CHAR(begin_date,'D') = 1 AND REMAINDER(end_date-begin_date+1,7) > 0 THEN 1
WHEN TO_CHAR(begin_date,'D') = 8 - REMAINDER(end_date-begin_date+1,7) THEN 1
WHEN TO_CHAR(begin_date,'D') > 8 - REMAINDER(end_date-begin_date+1,7) THEN 2
ELSE 0
END) /* weekend days in partial week */
AS business_days
The part that handles the multiples of 7 (whole weeks) is good. But, when considering the partial week portion, it depends on both the day-of-week offset and the number of days in the partial portion, according to the following matrix...
654321
1N 111111
2M 100000
3T 210000
4W 221000
5R 222100
6F 222210
7S 222221

To just remove sundays and saturdays you can use this
SELECT Base_DateDiff
- (floor((Base_DateDiff + 0 + Start_WeekDay) / 7))
- (floor((Base_DateDiff + 1 + Start_WeekDay) / 7))
FROM (SELECT 1 + TRUNC(InstallDate) - TRUNC(InstallDate, 'IW') Start_WeekDay
, CompleteDate - InstallDate + 1 Base_DateDiff
FROM TABLE) a
Base_DateDiff counts the number of days between the two dates
(floor((Base_DateDiff + 0 + Start_WeekDay) / 7)) counts the number of sundays
(floor((Base_DateDiff + 1 + Start_WeekDay) / 7)) counts the number of saturdays
1 + TRUNC(InstallDate) - TRUNC(InstallDate, 'IW') get 1 for mondays to 7 for sunday

This query can be used to go backward N days from the given date (business days only)
For example, go backward 15 days from 2017-05-17:
select date_point, closest_saturday - (15 - offset + floor((15 - offset) / 6) * 2) from(
select date_point,
closest_saturday,
(case
when weekday_num > 1 then
weekday_num - 2
else
0
end) offset
from (
select to_date('2017-05-17', 'yyyy-mm-dd') date_point,
to_date('2017-05-17', 'yyyy-mm-dd') - to_char(to_date('2017-05-17', 'yyyy-mm-dd'), 'D') closest_saturday,
to_char(to_date('2017-05-17', 'yyyy-mm-dd'), 'D') weekday_num
from dual
))
Some brief explanation: suppose we want to go backward N days from a given date
- Find the closest Saturday that is less than or equal to the given date.
- From the closest Saturday, go back ward (N - offset) days. offset is the number of business days between the closest Saturday and the given date (excluding the given date).
*To go back M days from a Saturday (business days only), use this formula DateOfMonthOfTheSaturday - [M + Floor(M / 6) * 2]

Here you go...
First check how many days you got in the holiday table, excluding weekend days.
Get business days (MON to FRI) between the 2 dates and after that subtract the holiday days.
create or replace
FUNCTION calculate_business_days (p_start_date IN DATE, p_end_date IN DATE)
RETURN NUMBER IS
v_holidays NUMBER;
v_start_date DATE := TRUNC (p_start_date);
v_end_date DATE := TRUNC (p_end_date);
BEGIN
IF v_end_date >= v_start_date
THEN
SELECT COUNT (*)
INTO v_holidays
FROM holidays
WHERE day BETWEEN v_start_date AND v_end_date
AND day NOT IN (
SELECT hol.day
FROM holidays hol
WHERE MOD(TO_CHAR(hol.day, 'J'), 7) + 1 IN (6, 7)
);
RETURN GREATEST (NEXT_DAY (v_start_date, 'MON') - v_start_date - 2, 0)
+ ( ( NEXT_DAY (v_end_date, 'MON')
- NEXT_DAY (v_start_date, 'MON')
)
/ 7
)
* 5
- GREATEST (NEXT_DAY (v_end_date, 'MON') - v_end_date - 3, 0)
- v_holidays;
ELSE
RETURN NULL;
END IF;
END calculate_business_days;
After that you can test it out, like:
select
calculate_business_days('21-AUG-2013','28-AUG-2013') as business_days
from dual;

There is another easier way, using connect by and dual...
with t as (select to_date('30-sep-2013') end_date, trunc(sysdate) start_date from dual)select count(1) from dual, t where to_char(t.start_date + level, 'D') not in (1,7) connect by t.start_date + level <= t.end_date;
with connect by you get all the dates from start_date till the end_date. Then you can exclude the dates you don't need and count only the needed.

This would return business days:
(CompleteDate-InstallDate)-2*FLOOR((CompleteDate-InstallDate)/7)-
DECODE(SIGN(TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'D')-
TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'D')),-1,2,0)+DECODE(TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'D'),7,1,0)-
DECODE(TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'D'),7,1,0) as BusinessDays,

Oracle - break dates into quarters

Given 2 dates (StartDate and EndDate), how to do i generate quarterly periods in Pl/SQL.
Example:
Start Date: 01-JAN-2009
End Date: 31-DEC-2009
Expected Output:
StartDate EndDate
01-JAN-2009 31-MAR-2009
01-APR-2009 30-JUN-2009
01-JUL-2009 30-SEP-2009
01-OCT-2009 31-DEC-2009

SELECT ADD_MONTHS( TRUNC(PARAM.start_date, 'Q'), 3*(LEVEL-1) ) AS qstart
, ADD_MONTHS( TRUNC(PARAM.start_date, 'Q'), 3*(LEVEL) ) -1 AS qend
FROM ( SELECT TO_DATE('&start_date') AS start_date
, TO_DATE('&end_date') AS end_date
FROM DUAL
) PARAM
CONNECT BY ADD_MONTHS( TRUNC(PARAM.start_date, 'Q'), 3*(LEVEL) ) -1
<= PARAM.end_date
Rules for params, you may need to adjust the query to suit your purposes:
If start_date is not exact quarter start it effectively uses the quarter contain start date.
If end_date is not exact quarter end then we end on the quarter that ended BEFORE end_date (not the one containing end date).

Here's one way that you can do it with PL/SQL
declare
startDate Date := '01-JAN-2009';
endDate Date := '31-DEC-2009';
totalQuarters number := 0;
begin
totalQuarters := round(months_between(endDate, startDate),0)/3;
dbms_output.put_line ('total quarters: ' || totalQuarters);
for i in 1..totalQuarters loop
dbms_output.put_line('start date: '|| startDate || ' end date:' || add_months(startDate -1,3));
startDate := add_months(startDate,3) ;
end loop;
end;
