I'm trying to see if I can calculate the # of days in each month, after a given date for a certain # of days.
For example, I have a date of 2019-09-25. If I am planning for the next 105 days, how many of those days are in September, October, November, and so on?
Declare #dtdate date = '20190925',
#days int= 105
Select
datediff(dd,#dtdate,eomonth(#dtdate)) as DaysSeptember
,datediff(dd,eomonth(#dtdate),eomonth(dateadd(m,1,#dtdate))) as DaysOctober
It looks to me like Sql server. You can do it by simply counting days in each month. Doing it this way has an advantage of flexibility. You can simply change #dtdate, #days and the query will work despite of changing number of months.
DECLARE #dtdate date = '20190925',
#days int= 105
,#dtmax date;
set #dtmax = dateadd(day, #days, #dtdate);
WITH cte AS (
SELECT DATEADD(DAY, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY 1/0), #dtdate) AS d
FROM sys.objects s, sys.objects s2
)
select
year(d) as year, datename(month, d) as month, count(*) as NumberOfDays
from cte
where d between #dtdate and #dtmax
group by year(d), datename(month, d)
order by year(d), month
result:
year month NumberOfDays
2019 December 31
2019 November 30
2019 October 31
2019 September 5
2020 January 8
In postgresql I'd do this by
SELECT date_part('month', d), count(d)
FROM generate_series('2019-09-25'::date, '2019-09-25'::date + INTERVAL '105 days', INTERVAL '1 day') series (d)
GROUP BY date_part('year',d), date_part('month', d)
ORDER BY date_part('year',d), date_part('month', d)
Clearly you're not using postgresql but perhaps this will give you a hint. The trick is to create a series of dates within the interval that you can then count. Here'st the output with the month and number of days. Note there are 106 days because the interval is inclusive of the beginning and end dates.
9;6
10;31
11;30
12;31
1;8
Perhaps not the best solution (not set based), but an alternative approach:
DECLARE #dtdate DATE = '20190925'
,#days INT = 105
,#DaysInMonth INT
DECLARE #results TABLE
(
ResultsID INT NOT NULL IDENTITY PRIMARY KEY
,YearMonth VARCHAR(7) NOT NULL
,DaysInMonth INT NOT NULL
)
WHILE #days > 0
BEGIN
SET #DaysInMonth = DATEDIFF(dd, #dtdate, EOMONTH(#dtdate))
SET #DaysInMonth = IIF(#days > #DaysInMonth, #DaysInMonth, #days)
INSERT INTO #results
(
YearMonth
,DaysInMonth
)
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(7), #dtdate, 120)
,#DaysInMonth
SET #days -= #DaysInMonth
SET #dtdate = DATEADD(dd, 1, EOMONTH(#dtdate))
END
SELECT *
FROM #results AS r
I am after a view which will look like my first attached picture however with right hand column populated and not blank. The logic is as follows:
The data must be for current financial period. Therfore April will be 2011 and March will be 2012 and so on.
The calculation for Days Available for the single months will be:
Total number of working days (Monday-Friday) minus any bank holidays that fall into that particular month, for that particular financial year (Which we have saved in a table - see second image).
Column names for holiday table left to right: holidaytypeid, name, holstart, holend.
Table name: holidaytable
To work out the cumulative months 'Days Available' it will be a case of summing already populated data for the single months. E.g April-May will be April and May's data SUMMED and so on and so forth.
I need the SQL query in perfect format so that this can be pasted straight in and will work (i.e with the correct column names and table names)
Thanks for looking.
DECLARE #StartDate DATETIME, #EndDate DATETIME
SELECT #StartDate = '01/04/2011',
#EndDate = '31/03/2012'
CREATE TABLE #Data (FirstDay DATETIME NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, WorkingDays INT NOT NULL)
;WITH DaysCTE ([Date]) AS
( SELECT #StartDate
UNION ALL
SELECT DATEADD(DAY, 1, [Date])
FROM DaysCTE
WHERE [Date] <= #Enddate
)
INSERT INTO #Data
SELECT MIN([Date]),
COUNT(*) [Day]
FROM DaysCTE
LEFT JOIN HolidayTable
ON [Date] BETWEEN HolStart AND HolEnd
WHERE HolidayTypeID IS NULL
AND DATENAME(WEEKDAY, [Date]) NOT IN ('Saturday', 'Sunday')
GROUP BY DATEPART(MONTH, [Date]), DATEPART(YEAR, [Date])
OPTION (MAXRECURSION 366)
DECLARE #Date DATETIME
SET #Date = (SELECT MIN(FirstDay) FROM #Data)
SELECT Period,
WorkingDays [Days Available (Minus the Holidays)]
FROM ( SELECT DATENAME(MONTH, Firstday) [Period],
WorkingDays,

DROP TABLE #Data
If you do this for more than 1 year you will need to change the line:
OPTION (MAXRECURSION 366)
Otherwise you'll get an error - The number needs to be higher than the number of days you are querying.
EDIT
I have just come accross this old answer of mine and really don't like it, there are so many things that I now consider bad practise, so am going to correct all the issues:
I did not terminate statements with a semi colon properly
Used a recursive CTE to generate a list of dates
Generate a set or sequence without loops – part 1
Generate a set or sequence without loops – part 2
Generate a set or sequence without loops – part 3
Did not include the column list for an insert
Used DATENAME to elimiate weekends, which is language specific, much better to explicitly set DATEFIRST and use DATEPART
Used LEFT JOIN/IS NULL instead of NOT EXISTS to elimiate records from the holiday table. In SQL Server LEFT JOIN/IS NULL is less efficient than NOT EXISTS
These are all minor things, but they are things I would critique (at least in my head if not outloud) when reviewing someone else's query, so can't really not correct my own work! Rewriting the query would give.
SET DATEFIRST 1;
DECLARE #StartDate DATETIME = '20110401',
#EndDate DATETIME = '20120331';
CREATE TABLE #Data (FirstDay DATETIME NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, WorkingDays INT NOT NULL);
WITH DaysCTE ([Date]) AS
( SELECT TOP (DATEDIFF(DAY, #StartDate, #EndDate) + 1)
DATEADD(DAY, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY a.object_id) - 1, #StartDate)
FROM sys.all_objects a
)
INSERT INTO #Data (FirstDay, WorkingDays)
SELECT FirstDay = MIN([Date]),
WorkingDays = COUNT(*)
FROM DaysCTE d
WHERE DATEPART(WEEKDAY, [Date]) NOT IN (6, 7)
AND NOT EXISTS
( SELECT 1
FROM dbo.HolidayTable ht
WHERE d.[Date] BETWEEN ht.HolStart AND ht.HolEnd
)
GROUP BY DATEPART(MONTH, [Date]), DATEPART(YEAR, [Date]);
DECLARE #Date DATETIME = (SELECT MIN(FirstDay) FROM #Data);
SELECT Period,
[Days Available (Minus the Holidays)] = WorkingDays
FROM ( SELECT DATENAME(MONTH, Firstday) [Period],
WorkingDays,
0 [SortField],
FirstDay
FROM #Data
UNION
SELECT DATENAME(MONTH, #Date) + ' - ' + DATENAME(MONTH, Firstday),
( SELECT SUM(WorkingDays)
FROM #Data b
WHERE b.FirstDay <= a.FirstDay
) [WorkingDays],
1 [SortField],
FirstDay
FROM #Data a
WHERE FirstDay > #Date
) data
ORDER BY SortField, FirstDay;
DROP TABLE #Data;
As a final point, this query becomes much simpler with a calendar table that stores all dates, and has flags for working days, holidays etc, rather than using a holiday table that just stores holidays.
Let me add few cents to this post. Just got assignment to calculate difference between planned hours and actual hour. The code below was converted to a function. So far no issue with the logic:
declare #date datetime = '11/07/2012'
declare #t table (HolidayID int IDENTITY(1,1) primary key,
HolidayYear int,
HolidayName varchar(50),
HolidayDate datetime)
INSERT #t

I need to make a temporary table that holds of range of dates, as well as a couple of columns that hold placeholder values (0) for future use. The dates I need are the first day of each month between $startDate and $endDate where these variables can be several years apart.
My original sql statement looked like this:
select dbo.FirstOfMonth(InsertDate) as Month, 0 as Trials, 0 as Sales
into #dates
from customer
group by dbo.FirstOfMonth(InsertDate)
"FirstOfMonth" is a user-defined function I made that pretty much does what it says, returning the first day of the month for the provided date with the time at exactly midnight.
This produced almost exactly what I needed until I discovered there were occasionally gaps in my dates where I had a few months were there were no records insert dates. Since my result must still have the missing months I need a different approach.
I have added the following declarations to the stored procedure anticipating their need for the range of the dates I need ...
declare $startDate set $startDate = select min(InsertDate) from customer
declare $endDate set $endDate = select max(InsertDate) from customer
... but I have no idea what to do from here.
I know this question is similar to this question but, quite frankly, that answer is over my head (I don't often work with SQL and when I do it tends to be on older versions of SQL Server) and there are a few minor differences that are throwing me off.
I needed something similar, but all DAYS instead of all MONTHS.
Using the code from MatBailie as a starting point, here's the SQL for creating a permanent table with all dates from 2000-01-01 to 2099-12-31:
CREATE TABLE _Dates (
d DATE,
PRIMARY KEY (d)
)
DECLARE #dIncr DATE = '2000-01-01'
DECLARE #dEnd DATE = '2100-01-01'
WHILE ( #dIncr < #dEnd )
BEGIN
INSERT INTO _Dates (d) VALUES( #dIncr )
SELECT #dIncr = DATEADD(DAY, 1, #dIncr )
END
This will quickly populate a table with 170 years worth of dates.
CREATE TABLE CalendarMonths (
date DATETIME,
PRIMARY KEY (date)
)
DECLARE
#basedate DATETIME,
#offset INT
SELECT
#basedate = '01 Jan 2000',
#offset = 1
WHILE (#offset < 2048)
BEGIN
INSERT INTO CalendarMonths SELECT DATEADD(MONTH, #offset, date) FROM CalendarMonths
SELECT #offset = #offset + #offset
END
You can then use it by LEFT joining on to that table, for the range of dates you require.
I would probably use a Calendar table. Create a permanent table in your database and fill it with all of the dates. Even if you covered a 100 year range, the table would still only have ~36,525 rows in it.
CREATE TABLE dbo.Calendar (
calendar_date DATETIME NOT NULL,
is_weekend BIT NOT NULL,
is_holiday BIT NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT PK_Calendar PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (calendar_date)
)
Once the table is created, just populate it once in a loop, so that it's always out there and available to you.
Your query then could be something like this:
SELECT
C.calendar_date,
0 AS trials,
0 AS sales
FROM
dbo.Calendar C
WHERE
C.calendar_date BETWEEN #start_date AND #end_date AND
DAY(C.calendar_date) = 1
You can join in the Customers table however you need to, outer joining on FirstOfMonth(InsertDate) = C.calendar_date if that's what you want.
You can also include a column for day_of_month if you want which would avoid the overhead of calling the DAY() function, but that's fairly trivial, so it probably doesn't matter one way or another.
This of course will not work in SQL-Server 2000 but in a modern database where you don't want to create a permanent table. You can use a table variable instead creating a table so you can left join the data try this. Change the DAY to HOUR etc to change the increment type.
declare #CalendarMonths table (date DATETIME, PRIMARY KEY (date)
)
DECLARE
#basedate DATETIME,
#offset INT
SELECT
#basedate = '01 Jan 2014',
#offset = 1
INSERT INTO #CalendarMonths SELECT #basedate
WHILE ( DATEADD(DAY, #offset, #basedate) < CURRENT_TIMESTAMP)
BEGIN
INSERT INTO #CalendarMonths SELECT DATEADD(HOUR, #offset, date) FROM #CalendarMonths where DATEADD(DAY, #offset, date) < CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
SELECT #offset = #offset + #offset
END
A starting point of a useful kludge to specify a range or specific list of dates:
SELECT *
FROM
(SELECT CONVERT(DateTime,'2017-1-1')+number AS [Date]
FROM master..spt_values WHERE type='P' AND number<370) AS DatesList
WHERE DatesList.Date IN ('2017-1-1','2017-4-14','2017-4-17','2017-12-25','2017-12-26')
You can get 0 to 2047 out of master..spt_values WHERE type='P', so that's five and a half year's worth of dates if you need it!
Tested below and it works, though it's a bit convoluted.
I assigned arbitrary values to the dates for the test.
DECLARE #SD smalldatetime,
#ED smalldatetime,
#FD smalldatetime,
#LD smalldatetime,
#Mct int,
#currct int = 0
SET #SD = '1/15/2011'
SET #ED = '2/02/2012'
SET #FD = (DATEADD(dd, -1*(Datepart(dd, #SD)-1), #sd))
SET #LD = (DATEADD(dd, -1*(Datepart(dd, #ED)-1), #ED))
SET #Mct = DATEDIFF(mm, #FD, #LD)
CREATE TABLE #MyTempTable (FoM smalldatetime, Trials int, Sales money)
WHILE #currct <= #Mct
BEGIN
INSERT INTO #MyTempTable (FoM, Trials, Sales)
VALUES
(DATEADD(MM, #currct, #FD), 0, 0)
SET #currct = #currct + 1
END
SELECT * FROM #MyTempTable
DROP TABLE #MyTempTable
For SQL Server 2000, this stackoverflow post looks promising for a way to temporarily generate dates calculated off of a start and end date. It's not exactly the same but quite similar. This post has a very in-depth answer on truncating dates, if needed.
In case anyone stumbles on this question and is working in PostgreSQL instead of SQL Server 2000, here is how you might do it there...
PostgreSQL has a nifty series generating function. For your example, you could use this series of all days instead of generating an entire calendar table, and then do groupings and matchups from there.
SELECT current_date + s.a AS dates FROM generate_series(0,14,7) AS s(a);
dates
------------
2004-02-05
2004-02-12
2004-02-19
(3 rows)
SELECT * FROM generate_series('2008-03-01 00:00'::timestamp,
'2008-03-04 12:00', '10 hours');
generate_series
---------------------
2008-03-01 00:00:00
2008-03-01 10:00:00
2008-03-01 20:00:00
2008-03-02 06:00:00
2008-03-02 16:00:00
2008-03-03 02:00:00
2008-03-03 12:00:00
2008-03-03 22:00:00
2008-03-04 08:00:00
(9 rows)
I would also look into date_trunc from PostgreSQL using 'month' for the truncator field to maybe refactor your original query to easily match with a date_trunc version of the calendar series.
select top (datediff(D,#start,#end)) dateadd(D,id-1,#start)
from BIG_TABLE_WITH_NO_JUMPS_IN_ID
declare #start datetime
set #start = '2016-09-01'
declare #end datetime
set #end = '2016-09-30'
create table #Date
(
table_id int identity(1,1) NOT NULL,
counterDate datetime NULL
);
insert into #Date select top (datediff(D,#start,#end)) NULL from SOME_TABLE
update #Date set counterDate = dateadd(D,table_id - 1, #start)
The code above should populate the table with all the dates between the start and end. You would then just join on this table to get all of the dates needed. If you only needed a certain day of each month, you could dateadd a month instead.
SELECT P.Id
, DATEADD ( DD, -P.Id, P.Date ) AS Date
FROM (SELECT TOP 1000 ROW_NUMBER () OVER (ORDER BY (SELECT NULL)) AS Id, CAST(GETDATE () AS DATE) AS Date FROM master.dbo.spt_values) AS P
This query returns a table calendar for the last 1000 days or so. It can be put in a temporary or other table.
Create a table variable containing a date for each month in a year:
declare #months table (reportMonth date, PRIMARY KEY (reportMonth));
declare #start date = '2018', #month int = 0; -- base 0 month
while (#month < 12)
begin
insert into #months select dateAdd(month, #month, #start);
select #month = #month + 1;
end
--verify
select * from #months;
This is by far the quickest method I have found (much quicker than inserting rows 1 by 1 in a WHILE loop):
DECLARE #startDate DATE = '1900-01-01'
DECLARE #endDate DATE = '2050-01-01'
SELECT DATEADD(DAY, sequenceNumber, #startDate) AS TheDate
INTO #TheDates
FROM (
SELECT ones.n + 10*tens.n + 100*hundreds.n + 1000*thousands.n + 10000*tenthousands.n AS sequenceNumber
FROM
(VALUES(0),(1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6),(7),(8),(9)) ones(n),
(VALUES(0),(1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6),(7),(8),(9)) tens(n),
(VALUES(0),(1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6),(7),(8),(9)) hundreds(n),
(VALUES(0),(1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6),(7),(8),(9)) thousands(n),
(VALUES(0),(1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6),(7),(8),(9)) tenthousands(n)
WHERE ones.n + 10*tens.n + 100*hundreds.n + 1000*thousands.n + 10000*tenthousands.n <= DATEDIFF(day, #startDate, #endDate)
) theNumbers
SELECT *
FROM #TheDates
ORDER BY TheDate
The recursive answer:
DECLARE #startDate AS date = '20220315';
DECLARE #endDate AS date = '20230316'; -- inclusive
WITH cte_minutes(dt)
AS (
SELECT
DATEFROMPARTS(YEAR(#startDate), MONTH(#startDate), 1)
UNION ALL
SELECT
DATEADD(month, 1, dt)
FROM
cte_minutes
WHERE DATEADD(month, 1, dt) < #endDate
)
SELECT
dt
into #dates
FROM
cte_minutes
WHERE
dt >= #startDate
AND
dt <= #endDate
OPTION (MAXRECURSION 2000);
DROP TABLE dbo.#dates
I need a select to return Month and year Within a specified date range where I would input the start year and month and the select would return month and year from the date I input till today.
I know I can do this in a loop but I was wondering if it is possible to do this in a series selects?
Year Month

2010 1
2010 2
2010 3
2010 4
2010 5

Gosh folks... using a "counting recursive CTE" or "rCTE" is as bad or worse than using a loop. Please see the following article for why I say that.
http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/T-SQL/74118/
Here's one way to do it without any RBAR including the "hidden RBAR" of a counting rCTE.
--===== Declare and preset some obviously named variables
DECLARE #StartDate DATETIME,
#EndDate DATETIME
;
SELECT #StartDate = '2010-01-14', --We'll get the month for both of these
#EndDate = '2020-12-05' --dates and everything in between
;
WITH
cteDates AS
(--==== Creates a "Tally Table" structure for months to add to start date
-- calulated by the difference in months between the start and end date.
-- Then adds those numbers to the start of the month of the start date.
SELECT TOP (DATEDIFF(mm,#StartDate,#EndDate) + 1)
MonthDate = DATEADD(mm,DATEDIFF(mm,0,#StartDate)
+ (ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY (SELECT NULL)) -1),0)
FROM sys.all_columns ac1
CROSS JOIN sys.all_columns ac2
)
--===== Slice each "whole month" date into the desired display values.
SELECT [Year] = YEAR(MonthDate),
[Month] = MONTH(MonthDate)
FROM cteDates
;
I know this is an old question, but I'm mildly horrified at the complexity of some of the answers. Using a CTE is definitely the simplest way to go for selecting these values:
WITH months(dt) AS
(SELECT getdate() dt
UNION ALL
SELECT dateadd(month, -1, dt)
FROM months)
SELECT
top (datediff(month, '2017-07-01' /* start date */, getdate()) + 1)
YEAR(months.dt) yr, MONTH(months.dt) mnth
FROM months
OPTION (maxrecursion 0);
Just slap in whichever start date you'd like in place of the '2017-07-01' above and you're good to go with an efficient and easily-integrated solution.
Edit: Jeff Moden's answer quite effectively advocates against using rCTEs. However, in this case it appears to be a case of premature optimization - we're talking about 10's of records in all likelihood, and even if you span back to 1900 from today, it's still a minuscule hit. Using rCTEs to achieve code maintainability seems to be worth the trade if the expected result set is small.
You can use something like this: Link
To generate the equivalent of a numbers table using date ranges.
But could you please clarify your inputs and outputs?
Do you want to input a start date, for example, '2010-5-1' and end date, for example, '2010-8-1' and have it return every month between the two? Do you want to include the start month and end month, or exclude them?
Here's some code that I wrote that will quickly generate an inclusive result of every month between two dates.
--Inputs here:
DECLARE #StartDate datetime;
DECLARE #EndDate datetime;
SET #StartDate = '2010-1-5 5:00PM';
SET #EndDate = GETDATE();
--Procedure here:
WITH RecursiveRowGenerator (Row#, Iteration) AS (
SELECT 1, 1
UNION ALL
SELECT Row# + Iteration, Iteration * 2
FROM RecursiveRowGenerator
WHERE Iteration * 2 < CEILING(SQRT(DATEDIFF(MONTH, #StartDate, #EndDate)+1))
UNION ALL
SELECT Row# + (Iteration * 2), Iteration * 2
FROM RecursiveRowGenerator
WHERE Iteration * 2 < CEILING(SQRT(DATEDIFF(MONTH, #StartDate, #EndDate)+1))
)
, SqrtNRows AS (
SELECT *
FROM RecursiveRowGenerator
UNION ALL
SELECT 0, 0
)
SELECT TOP(DATEDIFF(MONTH, #StartDate, #EndDate)+1)
DATEADD(month, DATEDIFF(month, 0, #StartDate) + A.Row# * POWER(2,CEILING(LOG(SQRT(DATEDIFF(MONTH, #StartDate, #EndDate)+1))/LOG(2))) + B.Row#, 0) Row#
FROM SqrtNRows A, SqrtNRows B
ORDER BY A.Row#, B.Row#;
Code below generates the values for the range between 21 Jul 2013 and 15 Jan 2014.
I usually use it in SSRS reports for generating lookup values for the Month parameter.
declare
#from date = '20130721',
#to date = '20140115';
with m as (
select * from (values ('Jan', '01'), ('Feb', '02'),('Mar', '03'),('Apr', '04'),('May', '05'),('Jun', '06'),('Jul', '07'),('Aug', '08'),('Sep', '09'),('Oct', '10'),('Nov', '11'),('Dec', '12')) as t(v, c)),
y as (select cast(YEAR(getdate()) as nvarchar(4)) [v] union all select cast(YEAR(getdate())-1 as nvarchar(4)))
select m.v + ' ' + y.v [value_field], y.v + m.c [label_field]
from m
cross join y
where y.v + m.c between left(convert(nvarchar, #from, 112),6) and left(convert(nvarchar, #to, 112),6)
order by y.v + m.c desc
Results:

I have to calculate all the invoices which have been paid in the first 'N' days of a month. I have two tables
. INVOICE: it has the invoice information. The only field which does matter is called 'datePayment'
. HOLYDAYS: It is a one column table. Entries at this table are of the form "2009-01-01",
2009-05-01" and so on.
I should consider also Saturdays and Sundays
(this might be not a problem because I could insert those days at the Hollidays table in order to consider them as hollidays if neccesary)
The problem is to calculate which is the 'payment limit'.
select count(*) from invoice
where datePayment < PAYMENTLIMIT
My question is how to calculate this PAYMENTLIMIT. Where PAYMENTLIMIT is 'the fifth working day of every month'.
The query should be run under Mysql and Oracle therefore standard SQL should be used.
Any hint?
EDIT
In order to be consistent with the title of the question the pseudo-query should the read as follows:
select count(*) from invoice
where datePayment < FIRST_WORKING_DAY + N
then the question can be reduced to calculate the FIRST_WORKING_DAY of every month.
You could look for the first date in a month, where the date is not in the holiday table and the date is not a weekend:
select min(datePayment), datepart(mm, datePayment)
from invoices
where datepart(dw, datePayment) not in (1,7) --day of week
and not exists (select holiday from holidays where holiday = datePayment)
group by datepart(mm, datePayment) --monthnr
Something like this might work:
create function dbo.GetFirstWorkdayOfMonth(#Year INT, #Month INT)
returns DATETIME
as begin
declare #firstOfMonth VARCHAR(20)
SET #firstOfMonth = CAST(#Year AS VARCHAR(4)) + '-' + CAST(#Month AS VARCHAR) + '-01'
declare #currDate DATETIME
set #currDate = CAST(#firstOfMonth as DATETIME)
declare #weekday INT
set #weekday = DATEPART(weekday, #currdate)
-- 7 = saturday, 1 = sunday
while #weekday = 1 OR #weekday = 7
begin
set #currDate = DATEADD(DAY, 1, #currDate)
set #weekday = DATEPART(weekday, #currdate)
end
return #currdate
end
I'm not 100% sure about whether the "weekday" numbers are fixed or might depend on your locale on your SQL Server. Check it out!

Rather than a Holidays table of days to exclude, we use the calendar table approach: one row for every day the application will ever need (thirty years spans a modest 11K rows). So not only does it have an is_weekday column, it has other things relevant to the enterprise e.g. julianized_date. This way, every possible date would have a ready-prepared value for first_working_day_this_month and finding it involves a simple lookup (which SQL products tend to be optimized for!) rather than 'calculating' it each time on the fly.
We have dates table in our application (filled with all dates and date parts for some tens of years), what allows various "missing" date manipulations, like (in pseudo-sql):
select min(ourdates.datevalue)
from ourdates
where ourdates.year=<given year> and ourdates.month=<given month>
and ourdates.isworkday
and not exists (
select * from holidays
where holidays.datevalue=ourdates.datevalue
)
Ok, at a first stab, you could put the following code into a UDF and pass in the Year and Month as variables. It can then return TestDate which is the first working day of the month.
DECLARE #Month INT
DECLARE #Year INT
SELECT #Month = 5
SELECT #Year = 2009
DECLARE #FirstDate DATETIME
SELECT #FirstDate = CONVERT(varchar(4), #Year) + '-' + CONVERT(varchar(2), #Month) + '-' + '01 00:00:00.000'
DROP TABLE #HOLIDAYS
CREATE TABLE #HOLIDAYS (HOLIDAY DateTime)
INSERT INTO #HOLIDAYS VALUES('2009-01-01 00:00:00.000')
INSERT INTO #HOLIDAYS VALUES('2009-05-01 00:00:00.000')
DECLARE #DateFound BIT
SELECT #DateFound = 0
WHILE(#DateFound = 0)
BEGIN
IF(
DATEPART(dw, #FirstDate) = 1
OR
DATEPART(dw, #FirstDate) = 1
OR
EXISTS(SELECT * FROM #HOLIDAYS WHERE HOLIDAY = #FirstDate)
)
BEGIN
SET #FirstDate = DATEADD(dd, 1, #FirstDate)
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET #DateFound = 1
END
END
SELECT #FirstDate
The things I don`t like with this solution though are, if your holidays table contains all days of the month there will be an infinite loop. (You could check the loop is still looking at the right month) It relies upon the dates being equal, eg all at time 00:00:00. Finally, the way I calculate the 1st of the month past in using string concatenation was a short cut. There are much better ways of finding the actual first day of the month.
Gets the first N working days of each month of year 2009:
select * from invoices as x
where
datePayment between '2009-01-01' and '2009-12-31'
and exists
(
select
1
from invoices
where
-- exclude holidays and sunday saturday...
(
datepart(dw, datePayment) not in (1,7) -- day of week
/*
-- Postgresql and Oracle have programmer-friendly IN clause
and
(datepart(yyyy,datePayment), datepart(mm,datePayment))
not in (select hyear, hday from holidays)
*/
-- this is the MSSQL equivalent of programmer-friendly IN
and
not exists
(
select * from holidays
where
hyear = datepart(yyyy,datePayment)
and hmonth = datepart(mm, datePayment)
)
)
-- ...exclude holidays and sunday saturday
-- get the month of x datePayment
and
(datepart(yyyy, datePayment) = datepart(yyyy, x.datePayment)
and datepart(mm, datePayment) = datepart(mm, x.datePayment))
group by
datepart(yyyy, datePayment), datepart(mm, datePayment)
having
x.datePayment < MIN(datePayment) + #N -- up to N working days
)
Returns the first Monday of the current month
SELECT DATEADD(
WEEK,
DATEDIFF( --x weeks between 1900-01-01 (Monday) and inner result
WEEK,
0, --1900-01-01
DATEADD( --inner result
DAY,
6 - DATEPART(DAY, GETDATE()),
GETDATE()
)
),
0 --1900-01-01 (Monday)
)
SELECT DATEADD(day, DATEDIFF (day, 0, DATEADD (month, DATEDIFF (month, 0, GETDATE()), 0) -1)/7*7 + 7, 0);
select if(weekday('yyyy-mm-01') < 5,'yyyy-mm-01',if(weekday('yyyy-mm-02') < 5,'yyyy-mm-02','yyyy-mm-03'))
Saturdays and Sundays are 5, 6 so you only need two checks to get the first working day
