I am working on a SSRS report which compares data of 2 given months. I'm categorising the chart based on Day and time in the following format 1, 6:00 AM. I get this column from the T-SQL itself. But the axis does not come properly. It looks like below now which doesn't make sense. I want it to be in order from 1st to 30th with the time component.
I guess I need some kind of sorting on X-axis with respect to date time. Please help!
After deleting from sorts from chart I'm getting some extra repitive dates after comparing all 30 days of both months. Data from the query looks alright to me!
Thank you!
Ok. Large query
You X-axis are show value in format date,hh mm tt Right ?
Then you want to sort them with day number 1 - 30.
From your query I suggest you add 1 field is like this CAST(SampleCollected AS DATE) [orders] and use this field in Order in Query or Sort on SSRS (not recommend ) and if you use Order in Query must delete sort condition on chart sort.
But if result still not you want try to add MONTH(SampleCollected) As MonthG to order again like this
ORDER BY MONTH(SampleCollected),CAST(SampleCollected AS DATE)
Hope it's Help.

I have the following table in SQL:
Start - End - Amount **per day**
06.07.2020 10.07.2020 10
08.07.2020 08.07.2020 5
08.07.2020 15.07.2020 20
02.07.2020 06.07.2020 3
Now I want to filter this table by the calendar week. Let's say "where [calendar week] = cw28". cw28 is from the 06th of july to the 12th of july.
With that I'd like to have the sum of the amount of the days that lie between those two dates. One single number.
I'm using MS SQL Server (SQL Express).
I can't figure out how to distinguish (and break down) if one day lays between the two date values or not. And if yes how much I need to sum up.
I tried to make a picture in excel to create a logic from this:
"Logic" in Excel
Can anyone help me with this? :)
Thx and Best!,

Not sure about your exact requirement. But below is the query to get the sum of values between two dates.
select sum(amount_of_days) from table where date_column between '06-JUL-2020' and '07-JUL-2010';
Change the column name and table name according to your requirement
I've tried limiting data on monthly basis in spotfire and it's working fine.
Now I'm trying to do like getting the records from the current date to month start date.
For suppose if the current date is Sept 21, then i should get the records from Sept 21 to Sept-01(dynamically).
I have a property control to input the number of months.
The easiest way to do this is with Month and Year. For example, in your visualization:
Right Click > Properties > Data > Limit Data Using Expressions (Edit)
Then, use this expression:
Month([TheDate]) = Month(DateTimeNow()) and Year([TheDate]) = Year(DateTimeNow())
This will limit the data to only those rows with the current Year/Month combination in your data column. Just replace [TheDate] with whatever your date column name is.
In other places, you can wrap this in an IF statement if you'd like. It's redundant in this case, but sometimes helps with readability.
IF(Month([TheDate]) = Month(DateTimeNow()) and Year([TheDate]) = Year(DateTimeNow()),TRUE,FALSE)
#san - Adding to #scsimon answer. If you would like to precisely limit values between 1st of the current month to current date, you could add the below expression to 'Limit data using expression' section.
[Date]>=date(1&'-'&Month(DateTimeNow())&'-'&year(DateTimeNow())) and [Date]<=DateTimeNow()
Long title, easy meaning:
How is it possible to extract from a date like "2014-04-04 10:47:30.000", which is stored in one column, it's components like year, month and day?
I'm not interested in the time.
For example, I have a table called "Incidents". Inside the table we got a column called "IncidentID" and a column called "ReportingDate", in which dates like the above-mentionend are stored. Let's say we have about 50k Incidents, therefore we have also 50k dates.
A year has 365 days. I want to query for the count of the Incidents, which were reported on different dates - for instance on the 5th of October 2013.
So: How can I get the components of the date and put them into another table while having own columns for the components and how can I query for the Incidents as well?
I guess at first I have to change the datatype of the date from DATETIME to DATE, but I'm not quite sure how to go further. May anyone help me while giving me a code and explains me what it does for a sql-noob? :-)

you haven't do this:

DATETIME to DATE, but I'm not quite sure how to go further.
Just query
SELECT
IncidentID
FROM incidents
WHERE ReportingDate >= '20131005'
AND ReportingDate < '20131006'
I've got a table with purchase orders stored in it. Each row has a timestamp indicating when the order was placed. I'd like to be able to create a report indicating the number of purchases each day, month, or year. I figured I would do a simple SELECT COUNT(xxx) FROM tbl_orders GROUP BY tbl_orders.purchase_time and get the value, but it turns out I can't GROUP BY a timestamp column.
Is there another way to accomplish this? I'd ideally like a flexible solution so I could use whatever timeframe I needed (hourly, monthly, weekly, etc.) Thanks for any suggestions you can give!
This does the trick without the date_trunc function (easier to read).
// 2014
select created_on::DATE from users group by created_on::DATE
// updated September 2018 (thanks to #wegry)
select created_on::DATE as co from users group by co
What we're doing here is casting the original value into a DATE rendering the time data in this value inconsequential.
Grouping by a timestamp column works fine for me here, keeping in mind that even a 1-microsecond difference will prevent two rows from being grouped together.
To group by larger time periods, group by an expression on the timestamp column that returns an appropriately truncated value. date_trunc can be useful here, as can to_char.
Suppose ,I have a table which has all the billing records. Now I want to see the sales trend for a user given time duration group by each 3 days ...what should be the sql query regarding this?
please help,Otherwise I am gone ...
I can only give a vague suggestion as per the question, however you may want to have a derived column with a standardised date (as per MS date format, just a number per day) that you could then use a modulus (3) on so that days are equal per 3 day period. You can then group and aggregate over this column to get the values for a 3 day period. Obviously to display the date nicely you would have to multiply back and convert your column as well.
Again I'm not sure of the specifics, but I think this general idea could be achieved to get a result (may well not be the best way so it would help to add more to the question...)
