I am using FromDate and ToDate parameter to filter the records in SSRS report. If I choose from date as 1st Oct 2020 and Todate as 15th Oct 2020, then it is showing the records till 14th Oct 2020 even though I have data for 15th Oct 2020.
The query looks like below and really appreciate your support.
SELECT * FROM table1
WHERE to_date(created_date) >= '2020-10-01'
AND to_date(created_date) <= '2020-10-15'
Thank you.

I have a DimCalendar dimension and I want to create a custom column on top of this which will be used as a "Sort By Column" in PowerBI report.
The sorting order should be Jan 2015, Jan 2016, Jan 2017, Feb 2015, Feb 2016, Feb 2017 and so on.
Hence, can someone help me write a SQL statement to create a column which will rank the numbers in the above sorting order?
Thanks.
[UPDATE]
Sample data - I have taken only first two dates from entire month.
The customer sort can be set by using the year and month. In many databases, you can define it as:
update dimCalendar
set customsort = month(date) * 10000 + year(date);
The ANSI standard syntax would be:
update dimCalendar
set customsort = extract(month from date) * 10000 + extract(year from date);
You can concatenate year part and month part of date.
In Ms SQL server you can use
Datepart (year, date)+"/" + Datepart(month,date)
I have a column which states month and year YYYY MM. I've separated those into two columns (Year and Month). The problem is, the year is the calendar year whereas ideally I need the fiscal year I use (Apr 01 to Mar 31 - This will never change).
Other solutions I've seen are based on date format, whereas my original column is string.
I need a statement that returns the fiscal year for my new year column instead of the calendar year.
My current statement is:
Select Month,
parsename(replace(Month,' ','.'),1) as MonthM,
parsename(replace(Month,' ','.'),2) as Year
FROM TblTrade
Which works to separate the columns.
So expected results would be for example:
Feb 15 becomes Feb and 2015.
Apr 15 becomes Apr and 2016.
Please advise.
Sql server:
declare #date datetime = getdate();
select
(YEAR(DATEADD(Month,-((DATEPART(Month,#date)+5) %12),#date))) AS Financial_Year
Assuming April is month 1
Try this
select case
when to_char(to_date(column_name,'yyyy mm'),'mm') between 01 and 03
then to_char(trunc(to_date(column_name,'yyyy mm')),'yyyy')-1
else to_number(to_char(trunc(to_date(column_name,'yyyy mm')),'yyyy')) end
fiscal_year
from table_name
I'm using oracle db
This will work when column is string and has valid data i.e date in format like yyyy mm
Since you've read those other articles (you should really mention what research you've done in your question) and you're still having problems, I've had a play for you.
If I understand correctly, you have a varchar with YYYY MM eg
2015 01
2015 02
2015 03
2015 04
etc And you want
Jan 2014
Feb 2014
Mar 2014
Apr 2015
Here goes...
Setup some test data
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS #Test;
WITH Dates AS (
SELECT CAST(GETDATE() AS DATE) AS Date
UNION ALL
SELECT DATEADD(MONTH, -1, Date) FROM Dates
WHERE Date > '20140101'
)
SELECT DISTINCT
CONVERT(VARCHAR(4), YEAR(Date)) + ' ' +RIGHT(CONVERT(VARCHAR(6), Date, 112), 2) YearMonth
INTO #Test
FROM Dates
OPTION (MAXRECURSION 0);
SELECT * FROM #Test
YearMonth
---------
2013 12
2014 01
2014 02
2014 03
2014 04
2014 05
etc
Find Fiscal Year
SELECT
LEFT(YEARMONTH, 4) Year
,RIGHT(YEARMONTH, 2) Month
,LEFT(DATENAME(MONTH , DateAdd( month , CONVERT(INT,RIGHT(YEARMONTH, 2)) , -1 )), 3) MonthName
,IIF(CONVERT(INT, RIGHT(YEARMONTH, 2)) >= 4, CONVERT(INT,LEFT(YEARMONTH, 4)), CONVERT(INT,LEFT(YEARMONTH, 4)-1 )) FiscalYear
FROM #TEST
Year Month MonthName FiscalYear
---- ----- --------- -----------
2013 12 Dec 2013
2014 01 Jan 2013
2014 02 Feb 2013
2014 03 Mar 2013
2014 04 Apr 2014
2014 05 May 2014
2014 06 Jun 2014
etc
You could put the year/month parsing in a sub query just to make the code cleaner and some of the nasty formatting could be replaced with FORMAT since you're on 2012.
Hope this is what you're after and helps.
Since you included the Tableau tag, I'll describe the Tableau approach -- which is a little different than the other answers since you tend to specify what you want to Tableau, and let its driver generate the necessary SQL for your database.
First, it will work best if you have a single field that has datatype DATE instead of separate fields for month and year.
You can then roll up dates to the nearest year, month, day etc (actually truncating to the beginning of the period) or extract specific parts of dates year, month, day etc as needed for grouping/display.
The added benefit of working with a true DATE datatype is that you can tell Tableau the beginning of your fiscal year for each data source, and it will sort dates appropriately. Just right click on a data source and set the date properties. You can also set the start of the week and the date format.
I'm trying to get the latest date from a csv file , the dates are stored in this form
NOV 14 2010
FEB 1 2012
JUN 18 2014
and my query is like
SELECT Max(date) from table
I'm getting
NOV 14 2010
any idea ?
They are likely being considered strings(varchar) not DateTimes. Try:
SELECT MAX(CAST(TABLE.date as DateTime)) FROM TABLE
I have a query, Im trying to select the maximum value from the summer period (nov-april down here) but it only gives me values from nov-dec with this query. Any ideas why?
SELECT TOP 10 Value, DateTime
FROM history
WHERE Tagname = #Tag
AND
((DateTime >= #StartYear AND DateTime < #StartWinter)
OR
(DateTime >= #FinishWinter AND DateTime < #FinishYear))
ORDER BY Value DESC
(DateTime >= startYear AND datetime < startwinter) gives you all results between jan and april 2009.
(Datetime > finishwinter and datetime < finishyear) gives all results in nov dec 09.
So, you're selecting top 10 from Jan Feb March April Nov Dec 2009. If that's what you want to select from, and you're only getting values in Nov Dec 2009, check to see that there should be values in the other months?
If #startwinter isn't year-sensitive you might also get jan-apr 2010.
Shouldn't you use a 'ORDER BY' when using 'TOP 10'?
And what locale do you live in, or, to rephrase it: what are reasonable dates for (#StartYear, #StartWinter, #FinishWinter, #FinishYear)
In Europe I expect:
StartYear = 2010-01-01
FinishYear= 2010-12-31
StartWinter=2010-12-20 (about)
FinishWinter=2010-03-20 (about)
So the first period would go from 2010-01-01 to 2010-12-20 (about) and the second from March 2010 to End of year.
So this would include the whole year, and most of it, from 03.20 to 12.20 double.
Hey thanks for the help everyone, it seems this is a problem with our historian (a linked db from sql server) so Ill take the issue up with them. I tried the query on a regular mssql db and it seeems fine...
