Combine consecutive date ranges - sql

Using SQL Server 2008 R2,
I'm trying to combine date ranges into the maximum date range given that one end date is next to the following start date.
The data is about different employments. Some employees may have ended their employment and have rejoined at a later time. Those should count as two different employments (example ID 5). Some people have different types of employment, running after each other (enddate and startdate neck-to-neck), in this case it should be considered as one employment in total (example ID 30).
An employment period that has not ended has an enddate that is null.
Some examples is probably enlightening:
declare #t as table (employmentid int, startdate datetime, enddate datetime)
insert into #t values
(5, '2007-12-03', '2011-08-26'),
(5, '2013-05-02', null),
(30, '2006-10-02', '2011-01-16'),
(30, '2011-01-17', '2012-08-12'),
(30, '2012-08-13', null),
(66, '2007-09-24', null)
-- expected outcome
EmploymentId StartDate EndDate
5 2007-12-03 2011-08-26
5 2013-05-02 NULL
30 2006-10-02 NULL
66 2007-09-24 NULL
I've been trying different "islands-and-gaps" techniques but haven't been able to crack this one.

The strange bit you see with my use of the date '31211231' is just a very large date to handle your "no-end-date" scenario. I have assumed you won't really have many date ranges per employee, so I've used a simple Recursive Common Table Expression to combine the ranges.
To make it run faster, the starting anchor query keeps only those dates that will not link up to a prior range (per employee). The rest is just tree-walking the date ranges and growing the range. The final GROUP BY keeps only the largest date range built up per starting ANCHOR (employmentid, startdate) combination.

An alternative solution that uses window functions rather than recursive CTEs
SELECT
employmentid,
MIN(startdate) as startdate,
NULLIF(MAX(COALESCE(enddate,'9999-01-01')), '9999-01-01') as enddate
FROM (
SELECT
employmentid,
startdate,
enddate,
DATEADD(
DAY,
-COALESCE(
SUM(DATEDIFF(DAY, startdate, enddate)+1) OVER (PARTITION BY employmentid ORDER BY startdate ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND 1 PRECEDING),
0
),
startdate
) as grp
FROM #t
) withGroup
GROUP BY employmentid, grp
ORDER BY employmentid, startdate
This works by calculating a grp value that will be the same for all consecutive rows. This is achieved by:
Determine totals days the span occupies (+1 as the dates are inclusive)
SELECT *, DATEDIFF(DAY, startdate, enddate)+1 as daysSpanned FROM #t
Cumulative sum the days spanned for each employment, ordered by startdate. This gives us the total days spanned by all the previous employment spans
We coalesce with 0 to ensure we dont have NULLs in our cumulative sum of days spanned
We do not include current row in our cumulative sum, this is because we will use the value against startdate rather than enddate (we cant use it against enddate because of the NULLs)
SELECT *, COALESCE(
SUM(daysSpanned) OVER (
PARTITION BY employmentid
ORDER BY startdate
ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND 1 PRECEDING
)
,0
) as cumulativeDaysSpanned
FROM (
SELECT *, DATEDIFF(DAY, startdate, enddate)+1 as daysSpanned FROM #t
) inner1
Subtract the cumulative days from the startdate to get our grp. This is the crux of the solution.
If the start date increases at the same rate as the days spanned then the days are consecutive, and subtracting the two will give us the same value.
If the startdate increases faster than the days spanned then there is a gap and we will get a new grp value greater than the previous one.
Although grp is a date, the date itself is meaningless we are using just as a grouping value
SELECT *, DATEADD(DAY, -cumulativeDaysSpanned, startdate) as grp
FROM (
SELECT *, COALESCE(
SUM(daysSpanned) OVER (
PARTITION BY employmentid
ORDER BY startdate
ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND 1 PRECEDING
)
,0
) as cumulativeDaysSpanned
FROM (
SELECT *, DATEDIFF(DAY, startdate, enddate)+1 as daysSpanned FROM #t
) inner1
) inner2
With the results
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------+-----------------------+-------------------------+
| employmentid | startdate | enddate | daysSpanned | cumulativeDaysSpanned | grp |
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------+-----------------------+-------------------------+
| 5 | 2007-12-03 00:00:00.000 | 2011-08-26 00:00:00.000 | 1363 | 0 | 2007-12-03 00:00:00.000 |
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------+-----------------------+-------------------------+
| 5 | 2013-05-02 00:00:00.000 | NULL | NULL | 1363 | 2009-08-08 00:00:00.000 |
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------+-----------------------+-------------------------+
| 30 | 2006-10-02 00:00:00.000 | 2011-01-16 00:00:00.000 | 1568 | 0 | 2006-10-02 00:00:00.000 |
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------+-----------------------+-------------------------+
| 30 | 2011-01-17 00:00:00.000 | 2012-08-12 00:00:00.000 | 574 | 1568 | 2006-10-02 00:00:00.000 |
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------+-----------------------+-------------------------+
| 30 | 2012-08-13 00:00:00.000 | NULL | NULL | 2142 | 2006-10-02 00:00:00.000 |
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------+-----------------------+-------------------------+
| 66 | 2007-09-24 00:00:00.000 | NULL | NULL | 0 | 2007-09-24 00:00:00.000 |
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------+-----------------------+-------------------------+
Finally we can GROUP BY grp to get the get rid of the consecutive days.
Use MIN and MAX to get the new startdate and endate
To handle the NULL enddate we give them a large value to get picked up by MAX then convert them back to NULL again
SELECT
employmentid,
MIN(startdate) as startdate,
NULLIF(MAX(COALESCE(enddate,'9999-01-01')), '9999-01-01') as enddate
FROM (
SELECT *, DATEADD(DAY, -cumulativeDaysSpanned, startdate) as grp
FROM (
SELECT *, COALESCE(
SUM(daysSpanned) OVER (
PARTITION BY employmentid
ORDER BY startdate
ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND 1 PRECEDING
)
,0
) as cumulativeDaysSpanned
FROM (
SELECT *, DATEDIFF(DAY, startdate, enddate)+1 as daysSpanned FROM #t
) inner1
) inner2
) inner3
GROUP BY employmentid, grp
ORDER BY employmentid, startdate
To get the desired result
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
| employmentid | startdate | enddate |
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
| 5 | 2007-12-03 00:00:00.000 | 2011-08-26 00:00:00.000 |
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
| 5 | 2013-05-02 00:00:00.000 | NULL |
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
| 30 | 2006-10-02 00:00:00.000 | NULL |
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
| 66 | 2007-09-24 00:00:00.000 | NULL |
+--------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
We can combine the inner queries to get the query at the start of this answer. Which is shorter, but less explainable
Limitations of all this required that
there are no overlaps of startdate and enddate for an employment. This could produce collisions in our grp.
startdate is not NULL. However this could be overcome by replacing NULL start dates with small date values
Future developers can decipher the window black magic you performed

A modified script for combining all overlapping periods. For example
01.01.2001-01.01.2010
05.05.2005-05.05.2015
will give one period:
01.01.2001-05.05.2015
tbl.enddate must be completed
;WITH cte
AS(
SELECT
a.employmentid
,a.startdate
,a.enddate
from tbl a
left join tbl c on a.employmentid=c.employmentid
and a.startdate > c.startdate
and a.startdate <= dateadd(day, 1, c.enddate)
WHERE c.employmentid IS NULL
UNION all
SELECT
a.employmentid
,a.startdate
,a.enddate
from cte a
inner join tbl c on a.startdate=c.startdate
and (c.startdate = dateadd(day, 1, a.enddate) or (c.enddate > a.enddate and c.startdate <= a.enddate))
)
select distinct employmentid,
startdate,
nullif(max(enddate),'31.12.2099') enddate
from cte
group by employmentid, startdate

SQL merge overlapping time intervals

I have a sqlite dataset like this
Startdate | Enddate | ID
2019-04-29 | 2019-05-04 | 12
2019-04-23 | 2019-04-25 | 533
2019-04-23 | 2019-04-24 | 44
2019-04-24 | 2019-04-25 | 79
I'm trying to get an output that is sorted in range from startdate to startdate plus day in a loop until last Endate.
The plan is to get all observation from min(Startdate) to min(Startdate) +1 and min(Startdate) plus +2 and so one
Range | ID
2019-04-23 2019-04-24 | 44
2019-04-23 2019-04-25 | 44
2019-04-23 2019-04-25 | 533
2019-04-23 2019-04-25 | 79
2019-04-23 2019-05-04 | 44
2019-04-23 2019-05-04 | 533
2019-04-23 2019-05-04 | 79
2019-04-23 2019-05-04 | 12
I'm not sure have to achieve this
I believe that the following will provide the results that you want :-
WITH cte(sdate,edate) AS
(
SELECT (SELECT min(startdate) FROM mytable),(SELECT min(startdate) FROM mytable)
UNION ALL
SELECT sdate,date(edate,'+1 days')
FROM cte
WHERE edate <= (
SELECT max(enddate) FROM mytable
)
LIMIT 1000 /* just in case limit to 1000 rows */
)
SELECT sdate||' '||edate AS Range, id
FROM cte
JOIN mytable ON startdate >= sdate
AND enddate <= edate
AND edate IN (SELECT enddate FROM mytable)
Example/Test/Demo
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS mytable;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS mytable (startdate TEXT, enddate TEXT, id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY);
INSERT INTO mytable VALUES
('2019-04-29','2019-05-04',12),
('2019-04-23','2019-04-25',533),
('2019-04-23','2019-04-24',44),
('2019-04-24','2019-04-25',79)
;
WITH cte(sdate,edate) AS
(
SELECT (SELECT min(startdate) FROM mytable),(SELECT min(startdate) FROM mytable)
UNION ALL
SELECT sdate,date(edate,'+1 days')
FROM cte
WHERE edate <= (
SELECT max(enddate) FROM mytable
)
LIMIT 1000 /* just in case limit to 1000 rows */
)
SELECT sdate||' '||edate AS Range, id
FROM cte
JOIN mytable ON startdate >= sdate
AND enddate <= edate
AND edate IN (SELECT enddate FROM mytable)
;
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS mytable;
The result is :-
The only difference being the order of the ID column (I can't see any order from your expected result)
As per the comment LIMIT 1000 is not required

How to return same row multiple times with multiple conditions

My knowledge is pretty basic so your help would be highly appreciated.
I'm trying to return the same row multiple times when it meets the condition (I only have access to select query).
I have a table of more than 500000 records with Customer ID, Start Date and End Date, where end date could be null.
I am trying to add a new column called Week_No and list all rows accordingly. For example if the date range is more than one week, then the row must be returned multiple times with corresponding week number. Also I would like to count overlapping days, which will never be more than 7 (week) per row and then count unavailable days using second table.
Sample data below
t1
ID | Start_Date | End_Date
000001 | 12/12/2017 | 03/01/2018
000002 | 13/01/2018 |
000003 | 02/01/2018 | 11/01/2018
...
t2
ID | Unavailable
000002 | 14/01/2018
000003 | 03/01/2018
000003 | 04/01/2018
000003 | 08/01/2018
...
I cannot pass the stage of adding week no. I have tried using CASE and UNION ALL but keep getting errors.
declare #week01start datetime = '2018-01-01 00:00:00'
declare #week01end datetime = '2018-01-07 00:00:00'
declare #week02start datetime = '2018-01-08 00:00:00'
declare #week02end datetime = '2018-01-14 00:00:00'
...
SELECT
ID,
'01' as Week_No,
'2018' as YEAR,
Start_Date,
End_Date
FROM t1
WHERE (Start_Date <= #week01end and End_Date >= #week01start)
or (Start_Date <= #week01end and End_Date is null)
UNION ALL
SELECT
ID,
'02' as Week_No,
'2018' as YEAR,
Start_Date,
End_Date
FROM t1
WHERE (Start_Date <= #week02end and End_Date >= #week02start)
or (Start_Date <= #week02end and End_Date is null)
...
The new table should look like this
ID | Week_No | Year | Start_Date | End_Date | Overlap | Unavail_Days
000001 | 01 | 2018 | 12/12/2017 | 03/01/2018 | 3 |
000002 | 02 | 2018 | 13/01/2018 | | 2 | 1
000003 | 01 | 2018 | 02/01/2018 | 11/01/2018 | 6 | 2
000003 | 02 | 2018 | 02/01/2018 | 11/01/2018 | 4 | 1
...
business wise i cannot understand what you are trying to achieve. You can use the following code though to calculate your overlapping days etc. I did it the way you asked, but i would recommend a separate table, like a Time dimension to produce a "cleaner" solution
/*sample data set in temp table*/
select '000001' as id, '2017-12-12'as start_dt, ' 2018-01-03' as end_dt into #tmp union
select '000002' as id, '2018-01-13 'as start_dt, null as end_dt union
select '000003' as id, '2018-01-02' as start_dt, '2018-01-11' as end_dt
/*calculate week numbers and week diff according to dates*/
select *,
DATEPART(WK,start_dt) as start_weekNumber,
DATEPART(WK,end_dt) as end_weekNumber,
case
when DATEPART(WK,end_dt) - DATEPART(WK,start_dt) > 0 then (DATEPART(WK,end_dt) - DATEPART(WK,start_dt)) +1
else (52 - DATEPART(WK,start_dt)) + DATEPART(WK,end_dt)
end as WeekDiff
into #tmp1
from
(
SELECT *,DATEADD(DAY, 2 - DATEPART(WEEKDAY, start_dt), CAST(start_dt AS DATE)) [start_dt_Week_Start_Date],
DATEADD(DAY, 8 - DATEPART(WEEKDAY, start_dt), CAST(start_dt AS DATE)) [startdt_Week_End_Date],
DATEADD(DAY, 2 - DATEPART(WEEKDAY, end_dt), CAST(end_dt AS DATE)) [end_dt_Week_Start_Date],
DATEADD(DAY, 8 - DATEPART(WEEKDAY, end_dt), CAST(end_dt AS DATE)) [end_dt_Week_End_Date]
from #tmp
) s
/*cte used to create duplicates when week diff is over 1*/
;with x as
(
SELECT TOP (10) rn = ROW_NUMBER() --modify the max you want
OVER (ORDER BY [object_id])
FROM sys.all_columns
ORDER BY [object_id]
)
/*final query*/
select --*
ID,
start_weekNumber+ (r-1) as Week,
DATEPART(YY,start_dt) as [YEAR],
start_dt,
end_dt,
null as Overlap,
null as unavailable_days
from
(
select *,
ROW_NUMBER() over (partition by id order by id) r
from
(
select d.* from x
CROSS JOIN #tmp1 AS d
WHERE x.rn <= d.WeekDiff
union all
select * from #tmp1
where WeekDiff is null
) a
)a_ext
order by id,start_weekNumber
--drop table #tmp1,#tmp
The above will produce the results you want except the overlap and unavailable columns. Instead of just counting weeks, i added the number of week in the year using start_dt, but you can change that if you don't like it:
ID Week YEAR start_dt end_dt Overlap unavailable_days
000001 50 2017 2017-12-12 2018-01-03 NULL NULL
000001 51 2017 2017-12-12 2018-01-03 NULL NULL
000001 52 2017 2017-12-12 2018-01-03 NULL NULL
000002 2 2018 2018-01-13 NULL NULL NULL
000003 1 2018 2018-01-02 2018-01-11 NULL NULL
000003 2 2018 2018-01-02 2018-01-11 NULL NULL

Date range with minimum and maximum dates from dataset having records with continuous date range

I have a dataset with id ,Status and date range of employees.
The input dataset given below are the details of one employee.
The date ranges in the records are continuous(in exact order) such that startdate of second row will be the next date of enddate of first row.
If an employee takes leave continuously for different months, then the table is storing the info with date range as separated for different months.
For example: In the input set, the employee has taken Sick leave from '16-10-2016' to '31-12-2016' and joined back on '1-1-2017'.
So there are 3 records for this item but the dates are continuous.
In the output I need this as one record as shown in the expected output dataset.
INPUT
Id Status StartDate EndDate
1 Active 1-9-2007 15-10-2016
1 Sick 16-10-2016 31-10-2016
1 Sick 1-11-2016 30-11-2016
1 Sick 1-12-2016 31-12-2016
1 Active 1-1-2017 4-2-2017
1 Unpaid 5-2-2017 9-2-2017
1 Active 10-2-2017 11-2-2017
1 Unpaid 12-2-2017 28-2-2017
1 Unpaid 1-3-2017 31-3-2017
1 Unpaid 1-4-2017 30-4-2017
1 Active 1-5-2017 13-10-2017
1 Sick 14-10-2017 11-11-2017
1 Active 12-11-2017 NULL
EXPECTED OUTPUT
Id Status StartDate EndDate
1 Active 1-9-2007 15-10-2016
1 Sick 16-10-2016 31-12-2016
1 Active 1-1-2017 4-2-2017
1 Unpaid 5-2-2017 9-2-2017
1 Active 10-2-2017 11-2-2017
1 Unpaid 12-2-2017 30-4-2017
1 Active 1-5-2017 13-10-2017
1 Sick 14-10-2017 11-11-2017
1 Active 12-11-2017 NULL
I can't take min(startdate) and max(EndDate) group by id,status because if the same employee has taken another Sick leave then that end date ('11-11-2017' in the example) will come as the End date.
can anyone help me with the query in SQL server 2014?
It suddenly hit me that this is basically a gaps and islands problem - so I've completely changed my solution.
For this solution to work, the dates does not have to be consecutive.
First, create and populate sample table (Please save us this step in your future questions):
DECLARE #T AS TABLE
(
Id int,
Status varchar(10),
StartDate date,
EndDate date
);
SET DATEFORMAT DMY; -- This is needed because how you specified your dates.
INSERT INTO #T (Id, Status, StartDate, EndDate) VALUES
(1, 'Active', '1-9-2007', '15-10-2016'),
(1, 'Sick', '16-10-2016', '31-10-2016'),
(1, 'Sick', '1-11-2016', '30-11-2016'),
(1, 'Sick', '1-12-2016', '31-12-2016'),
(1, 'Active', '1-1-2017', '4-2-2017'),
(1, 'Unpaid', '5-2-2017', '9-2-2017'),
(1, 'Active', '10-2-2017', '11-2-2017'),
(1, 'Unpaid', '12-2-2017', '28-2-2017'),

You can see a live demo on rextester.
Please note that string representation of dates in SQL should be acccording to ISO 8601 - meaning either yyyy-MM-dd or yyyyMMdd as it's unambiguous and will always be interpreted correctly by SQL Server.
It's an example of GROUPING AND WINDOW.
First you set a reset point for each Status
Sum to set a group
Then get max/min dates of each group.
;with x as
(
select Id, Status, StartDate, EndDate,
iif (lag(Status) over (order by Id, StartDate) = Status, null, 1) rst
from emp
), y as
(
select Id, Status, StartDate, EndDate,

MAX(EndDate) EndDate

dbfiddle here
Here's an alternative answer that doesn't use LAG.
First I need to take a copy of your test data:
DECLARE #table TABLE (Id INT, [Status] VARCHAR(50), StartDate DATE, EndDate DATE);
INSERT INTO #table SELECT 1, 'Active', '20070901', '20161015';
INSERT INTO #table SELECT 1, 'Sick', '20161016', '20161031';
INSERT INTO #table SELECT 1, 'Sick', '20161101', '20161130';
INSERT INTO #table SELECT 1, 'Sick', '20161201', '20161231';
INSERT INTO #table SELECT 1, 'Active', '20170101', '20170204';
INSERT INTO #table SELECT 1, 'Unpaid', '20170205', '20170209';
INSERT INTO #table SELECT 1, 'Active', '20170210', '20170211';
INSERT INTO #table SELECT 1, 'Unpaid', '20170212', '20170228';
INSERT INTO #table SELECT 1, 'Unpaid', '20170301', '20170331';
INSERT INTO #table SELECT 1, 'Unpaid', '20170401', '20170430';
INSERT INTO #table SELECT 1, 'Active', '20170501', '20171013';
INSERT INTO #table SELECT 1, 'Sick', '20171014', '20171111';
INSERT INTO #table SELECT 1, 'Active', '20171112', NULL;
Then the query is:
WITH add_order AS (
SELECT
*,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY StartDate) AS order_id
FROM
#table),
links AS (
SELECT
a1.Id,
a1.[Status],
a1.order_id,
MIN(a1.order_id) AS start_order_id,
MAX(ISNULL(a2.order_id, a1.order_id)) AS end_order_id,
MIN(a1.StartDate) AS StartDate,
MAX(ISNULL(a2.EndDate, a1.EndDate)) AS EndDate
FROM
add_order a1
LEFT JOIN add_order a2 ON a2.Id = a1.Id AND a2.[Status] = a1.[Status] AND a2.order_id = a1.order_id + 1 AND a2.StartDate = DATEADD(DAY, 1, a1.EndDate)
GROUP BY
a1.Id,
a1.[Status],
a1.order_id),
merged AS (
SELECT
l1.Id,
l1.[Status],
l1.[StartDate],
ISNULL(l2.EndDate, l1.EndDate) AS EndDate,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY l1.Id, l1.[Status], ISNULL(l2.EndDate, l1.EndDate) ORDER BY l1.order_id) AS link_id
FROM
links l1
LEFT JOIN links l2 ON l2.order_id = l1.end_order_id)
SELECT
Id,
[Status],
StartDate,
EndDate
FROM
merged
WHERE
link_id = 1
ORDER BY
StartDate;
Results are:
Id Status StartDate EndDate
1 Active 2007-09-01 2016-10-15
1 Sick 2016-10-16 2016-12-31
1 Active 2017-01-01 2017-02-04
1 Unpaid 2017-02-05 2017-02-09
1 Active 2017-02-10 2017-02-11
1 Unpaid 2017-02-12 2017-04-30
1 Active 2017-05-01 2017-10-13
1 Sick 2017-10-14 2017-11-11
1 Active 2017-11-12 NULL
How does it work? First I add a sequence number, to assist with merging contiguous rows together. Then I determine the rows that can be merged together, add a number to identify the first row in each set that can be merged, and finally pick the first rows out of the final CTE. Note that I also have to handle rows that can't be merged, hence the LEFT JOINs and ISNULL statements.
Just for interest, this is what the output from the final CTE looks like, before I filter out all but the rows with a link_id of 1:
Id Status StartDate EndDate link_id
1 Active 2007-09-01 2016-10-15 1
1 Sick 2016-10-16 2016-12-31 1
1 Sick 2016-11-01 2016-12-31 2
1 Sick 2016-12-01 2016-12-31 3
1 Active 2017-01-01 2017-02-04 1
1 Unpaid 2017-02-05 2017-02-09 1
1 Active 2017-02-10 2017-02-11 1
1 Unpaid 2017-02-12 2017-04-30 1
1 Unpaid 2017-03-01 2017-04-30 2
1 Unpaid 2017-04-01 2017-04-30 3
1 Active 2017-05-01 2017-10-13 1
1 Sick 2017-10-14 2017-11-11 1
1 Active 2017-11-12 NULL 1
You could use lag() and lead() function together to check the previous and next status
WITH CTE AS
(
select *,
COALESCE(LEAD(status) OVER(ORDER BY (select 1)), '0') Nstatus,
COALESCE(LAG(status) OVER(ORDER BY (select 1)), '0') Pstatus
from table
)
SELECT * FROM CTE
WHERE (status <> Nstatus AND status <> Pstatus) OR
(status <> Pstatus)

Impala SQL: Merging rows with overlapping dates. WHERE EXISTS and recursive CTE not supported

I am trying to merge rows with overlapping date intervals in a table in Impala SQL. However the solutions I have found to solve this are not supported by Impala eg. WHERE EXISTS and recursive CTEs.
How would I write a query for this in Impala?
Table: #T
ID StartDate EndDate
1 20170101 20170201
2 20170101 20170401
3 20170505 20170531
4 20170530 20170531
5 20170530 20170831
6 20171001 20171005
7 20171101 20171225
8 20171105 20171110
Required Output:
StartDate EndDate
20170101 20170401
20170505 20170831
20171001 20171005
Example of what I am trying to achieve that is not supported in Impala:
SELECT
s1.StartDate,
MIN(t1.EndDate) AS EndDate
FROM #T s1
INNER JOIN #T t1 ON s1.StartDate <= t1.EndDate
AND NOT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM #T t2
WHERE t1.EndDate >= t2.StartDate AND t1.EndDate < t2.EndDate)
WHERE NOT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM #T s2
WHERE s1.StartDate > s2.StartDate AND s1.StartDate <= s2.EndDate)
GROUP BY s1.StartDate
ORDER BY s1.StartDate

Query to return all the days of a month

This problem is related to this, which has no solution in sight: here
I have a table that shows me all sessions of an area.
This session has a start date.
I need to get all the days of month of the start date of the session by specific area (in this case)
I have this query:
SELECT idArea, idSession, startDate FROM SessionsPerArea WHERE idArea = 1
idArea | idSession | startDate |
1 | 1 | 01-01-2013 |
1 | 2 | 04-01-2013 |
1 | 3 | 07-02-2013 |
And i want something like this:
date | Session |
01-01-2013 | 1 |
02-01-2013 | NULL |
03-01-2013 | NULL |
04-01-2013 | 1 |
........ | |
29-01-2013 | NULL |
30-01-2013 | NULL |
In this case, the table returns me all the days of January.
The second column is the number of sessions that occur on that day, because there may be several sessions on the same day.
Anyone can help me?
Please try:
DECLARE #SessionsPerArea TABLE (idArea INT, idSession INT, startDate DATEtime)
INSERT #SessionsPerArea VALUES (1,1,'2013-01-01')
INSERT #SessionsPerArea VALUES (1,2,'2013-01-04')
INSERT #SessionsPerArea VALUES (1,3,'2013-07-02')
DECLARE #RepMonth as datetime
SET #RepMonth = '01/01/2013';
WITH DayList (DayDate) AS
(
SELECT #RepMonth
UNION ALL
SELECT DATEADD(d, 1, DayDate)
FROM DayList
WHERE (DayDate < DATEADD(d, -1, DATEADD(m, 1, #RepMonth)))
)
SELECT *
FROM DayList t1 left join #SessionsPerArea t2 on t1.DayDate=startDate and t2.idArea = 1
This will work:
DECLARE #SessionsPerArea TABLE (idArea INT, idSession INT, startDate DATE)
INSERT #SessionsPerArea VALUES
(1,1,'2013-01-01'),
(1,2,'2013-01-04'),
(1,3,'2013-07-02')
;WITH t1 AS
(
SELECT startDate
, DATEADD(MONTH, DATEDIFF(MONTH, '1900-01-01', startDate), '1900-01-01') firstInMonth
, DATEADD(DAY, -1, DATEADD(MONTH, DATEDIFF(MONTH, '1900-01-01', startDate) + 1, '1900-01-01')) lastInMonth
, COUNT(*) cnt
FROM #SessionsPerArea
WHERE idArea = 1
GROUP BY
startDate
)
, calendar AS
(
SELECT DISTINCT DATEADD(DAY, c.number, t1.firstInMonth) d
FROM t1
JOIN master..spt_values c ON
type = 'P'
AND DATEADD(DAY, c.number, t1.firstInMonth) BETWEEN t1.firstInMonth AND t1.lastInMonth
)
SELECT d date
, cnt Session
FROM calendar c
LEFT JOIN t1 ON t1.startDate = c.d
It uses simple join on master..spt_values table to generate rows.
Just an example of calendar table. To return data for a month adjust the number of days between < 32, for a year to 365+1. You can calculate the number of days in a month or between start/end dates with query. I'm not sure how to do this in SQL Server. I'm using hardcoded values to display all dates in Jan-2013. You can adjust start and end dates for diff. month or to get start/end dates with queries...:
WITH data(r, start_date) AS
(
SELECT 1 r, date '2012-12-31' start_date FROM any_table --dual in Oracle
UNION ALL
SELECT r+1, date '2013-01-01'+r-1 FROM data WHERE r < 32 -- number of days between start and end date+1
)
SELECT start_date FROM data WHERE r > 1
/
