(SELECT IIF([Date Retired/Left] = NULL, DateDiff("yyyy", [Date Employed],Now()),
DateDiff("yyyy",[Date Employed],[Date Retired/Left]))
FROM [Employment History]
WHERE [Employment History].EmployeeID = [Training History].EmployeeID)
AS [Time Employed]
This is a subquery that returns the correct value if [Date Retired/Left] holds a date however when it does not hold a date i.e. has not left or retired I want to collect the length of employment to now. I've attempted to use the Now () command but cannot get it to work, receiving blanks in these fields.
Apologies if it is a simple error, I am a fresh novice trying SQL for the first time this week.
Dates
It's been forever since the last time I've worked with ms-access, but I think the problem is this part: [Date Retired/Left] = NULL.
In every database I know, you can't compare values to NULL - the result will always be either false or unknown. You need to change that to [Date Retired/Left] IS NULL.
So your sub query should be this:
(SELECT IIF([Date Retired/Left] IS NULL,
DateDiff("yyyy", [Date Employed], Now()),
DateDiff("yyyy", [Date Employed], [Date Retired/Left])
)
FROM [Employment History]
WHERE [Employment History].EmployeeID = [Training History].EmployeeID)
AS [Time Employed]

I have a very simple Select query in access. I have created a report from the query, where there are two date fields on the form for the user to fill and then a button to preview that report. But it keeps showing all of the records instead of showing only the ones within the range. What might be wrong with the query?
SELECT Marketics.Agent, Marketics.[Policy Number], Marketics.[Policy Status], Marketics.Decision, Marketics.[Old Premium], Marketics.[New Premium], Marketics.Difference, Marketics.Case
FROM Marketics
WHERE [Marketics].[Date Completed]>=[forms]![Policies Worked]![from]<=[forms]![Policies Worked]![to];
Consider:
SELECT * FROM Marketics
WHERE [Date Completed] >= [forms]![Policies Worked]![from] AND [Date Completed] <= [forms]![Policies Worked]![to]
Or
SELECT * FROM Marketics
WHERE [Date Completed] BETWEEN [forms]![Policies Worked]![from] AND [forms]![Policies Worked]![to]
I am trying to group by category - But the SQL I am using is grouping them all by date.
Example:
If a user selects a date range of 01/04/17 - 20/04/17 it will show them total number found under category A
Whats actually happening:
The results are showing Category A 10 times and showing me the total number of each date rather than a complete grouped total
Hope this makes sense
SELECT tbl_ComplaintsCoded.CauseManager, Count(tbl_ComplaintsCoded.CauseManager) AS CountOfCauseManager, tbl_ComplaintsCoded.[Account Number], tbl_ComplaintsCoded.TouchCSM, tbl_ComplaintsCoded.[Mail Date]
FROM tbl_ComplaintsCoded
GROUP BY tbl_ComplaintsCoded.CauseManager, tbl_ComplaintsCoded.[Account Number], tbl_ComplaintsCoded.TouchCSM, tbl_ComplaintsCoded.[Mail Date]
HAVING (((tbl_ComplaintsCoded.TouchCSM)=[Forms]![frm_Central_Reporting]![Combo209]) AND ((tbl_ComplaintsCoded.[Mail Date]) Between [Forms]![frm_Central_Reporting]![Text204] And [Forms]![frm_Central_Reporting]![Text206]));
this should get what you want:
SELECT tbl_ComplaintsCoded.CauseManager, Count(tbl_ComplaintsCoded.CauseManager) AS CountOfCauseManager, tbl_ComplaintsCoded.[Account Number], tbl_ComplaintsCoded.TouchCSM, tbl_ComplaintsCoded.[Mail Date]
FROM tbl_ComplaintsCoded
WHERE tbl_ComplaintsCoded.TouchCSM = [Forms]![frm_Central_Reporting]![Combo209]
AND (tbl_ComplaintsCoded.[Mail Date] BETWEEN [Forms]![frm_Central_Reporting]![Text204] AND [Forms]![frm_Central_Reporting]![Text206])
GROUP BY tbl_ComplaintsCoded.CauseManager
HAVING CountOfCauseManager > 0;

I’m hoping someone can help me out with restructuring/rewriting my MDX query – I’m fairly new to MDX and only know enough to be dangerous. I am using Mondrian if that makes a difference.
Here is the stacked bar chart I am producing…
Injuries by Month and Category
And here is my query (simplified to remove all the stuff not relevant to this question)…
WITH
SET [Date Range] AS {${mdxStartDateParam}.Parent : ${mdxEndDateParam}.Parent}
MEMBER [Measures].[Month Name] as [Incident Date.YQMD].currentmember.parent.parent.name || "-" || [Incident Date.YQMD].currentmember.name
SET [Classification Month Set] AS (
Hierarchize(
ORDER(
Hierarchize(FILTER([Classification].[Classification].members,[Classification].CURRENTMEMBER IN {Descendants([Classification].[${paramInjClass}])})),
[Measures].[Injury Count],
BDESC
)
) * [Date Range]
)
SELECT {[Measures].[Injury Count], [Measures].[Month Name]} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY [Classification Month Set] ON ROWS
FROM [Injury Analysis]
The problem I have is that my two date parameters (${mdxStartDateParam} and ${mdxEndDateParam}) can be any date at the [Day] level, while my chart X Axis is showing at the [Month] level, and even if the ${mdxStartDateParam} is midway through a month my query is returning all data for the month.
eg. If I have an Injury that occurred on February 2nd but my ${mdxStartDateParam} is [Incident Date.YQMD].[2017].[Q1].[Feb].[17], then that Injuryis being included in the chart.
Is there a way I can restructure my MDX so that the bar for February does not show all data for February, but only the data for Fenruary that is >= ${mdxStartDateParam} and <= ${mdxEndDateParam}?
Since the Mondrian doesn't support sub-queries, you can't use your Calendar hierarchy for both where clause and axis. Also there is no way to filter days and show month only on axis. So, if you have two separate hierarchies for Days and Months, you may use the following:
WITH
SET [Date Range] AS [YourDateDim].[YourHierarchyNotInDateParam].[MonthLevel].Members
MEMBER [Measures].[Month Name] as [Incident Date.YQMD].currentmember.parent.parent.name || "-" || [Incident Date.YQMD].currentmember.name
SET [Classification Month Set] AS (
Hierarchize(
ORDER(
Hierarchize(FILTER([Classification].[Classification].members,[Classification].CURRENTMEMBER IN {Descendants([Classification].[${paramInjClass}])})),
[Measures].[Injury Count],
BDESC
)
) * [Date Range]
)
SELECT {[Measures].[Injury Count], [Measures].[Month Name]} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY [Classification Month Set] ON ROWS
FROM [Injury Analysis]
WHERE {${mdxStartDateParam}:${mdxEndDateParam}})
Otherwise you have to deal with shown days and group them after.
Without knowing anything about the dialect of MDX you're using, or being able to see the dimension structure, my guess is that the problem is with the definition of [Date Range]:
SET [Date Range] AS {${mdxStartDateParam}.Parent : ${mdxEndDateParam}.Parent}
If the two parameters are at the Day level, does .Parent return their parent months?
The solution might be to make the date range be a set of days:
SET [Date Range] AS {${mdxStartDateParam} : ${mdxEndDateParam}}
and then aggregate by month somehow.
Trying to get a Crosstab to bring up a prompt when a query is opened to allow a date range (start and end) to be input (dd-mm-yyyy) so that only this data comes back when the query is ran.
Currently sitting on the following code;
TRANSFORM Count(AlphaData.[Invoice]) AS CountOfInvoice
SELECT AlphaData.[Reason], Count(AlphaData.[Invoice]) AS [Total Of Invoice]
FROM AlphaData
WHERE ((AlphaData.[DateRaised]) Between AlphaData.[DateRaised] And AlphaData.[DateRaised])
GROUP BY AlphaData.[Reason]
PIVOT Format([DateRaised],"Short Date");
But cannot for the life of me get around the "MS Access DB engine does not recognise 'Alphadata.[DateRaised:]' as a valid field name or expression" issue.
The "WHERE" portion of the query does work in other queries, but it just goes to pot when it's applied in a crosstab.
Any suggestions?
It seems a bit mixed up. How about:
PARAMETERS
[From Date:] DateTime,
[To Date:] DateTime;
TRANSFORM
Count(*) AS CountOfInvoice
SELECT
AlphaData.[Reason],
Sum(AlphaData.[Invoice]) AS [Total Of Invoice]
FROM
AlphaData
WHERE
AlphaData.[DateRaised] Between [From Date:] And [To Date:]
GROUP BY
AlphaData.[Reason]
PIVOT
Format([DateRaised],"Short Date");
You need to add the parameters to the query:
PARAMETERS [Start Date] DateTime, [End Date] DateTime;
TRANSFORM Count(AlphaData.Invoice) AS CountOfInvoice
SELECT AlphaData.Reason, Count(AlphaData.Invoice) AS [Total Of Invoice]
FROM AlphaData
WHERE (((AlphaData.DateRaised) Between [Start Date] And [End Date]))
GROUP BY AlphaData.Reason
PIVOT Format([DateRaised],"Short Date");
(note: parameter added as the first line, and then used in the Between statement).
If you're using the graphical interface you need to look for the Parameter option:
and enter your parameters in the dialog box:
I didn't realise this would happen with a cross-tab as you can just type the parameter in for a select query:
SELECT Invoice, Reason, DateRaised
FROM AlphaData
WHERE DateRaised=[Start Date]
I am using the query below and I would like to get the rows where "[Last Update Date]" is in either 2015 or 2016.
SELECT [NPI]
,[Entity Type Code]
,[Replacement NPI]
,[Employer Identification Number (EIN)]
,[Provider Organization Name (Legal Business Name)]
,[Provider Last Name (Legal Name)]
,[Provider First Name]
,[Provider Middle Name]
,[Provider Name Prefix Text]
,[Provider Name Suffix Text]
,[Provider Credential Text]
,[Provider Enumeration Date]
,[Last Update Date]
,[Healthcare Provider Taxonomy Code_1]
FROM [Database].[dbo].[NPIInfo]
WHERE[Healthcare Provider Taxonomy Code_1] in ('122300000X', '1223G0001X','1223P0221X','1223P0700X')
AND ([Last Update Date] BETWEEN '2015/01/01' AND '2016/12/31' )
order by [Last Update Date]
I don't receive any results when I run the code above. But if I run it with this "AND" statement I get results:
AND [Last Update Date] like '%2015%' or [Last Update Date] like '%2016%'
This result gives me 500,000 + rows.
If I run it this way per year I get way less results:
AND [Last Update Date] like '%2015%'
Any idea what I am doing wrong here? The last 2 And statements are giving me different results TIA
TRY
WHERE CONVERT(DATETIME, [Last Update Date] , 103) BETWEEN '2015/01/01' AND '2016/12/31'

EDIT: Apparently I'm wrong here. Leaving the answer for reference as to what is not the problem. However, the CAST code might work anyway.
First, you can't use BETWEEN with text data, you have to do it with a datetime or numeric format. If [Last update Date] is text you'll need to convert it to datetime before you can do anything with it. It would be best to change your actual data's format, but if you can't for some reason this may work:
AND (CAST([Last Update Date] as datetime)
BETWEEN CAST('2015/01/01' as datetime) AND CAST('2016/12/31' as datetime))
Regarding your like '%2015%' statements, the wildcard condition you're using is specifically for text data; that's why it works at all. The different row amounts are because the first like is looking for both 2015 and 2016, while the second one is looking for only 2015.
