I have the following problem.
I have some dates with the following format '15122019' and I need it in this format 2019-12-15, which I already solved it in the following way.
select convert (date, Stuff(Stuff('15122018',5,0,'.'),3,0,'.'),104)
The real problem is when the dates come like this '3122019' the conversion can not be done because the length is shorter. Is ther e another way to do it? I've been trying to solve it for several hours. And another question, can this query be parameterized?
Try this:
DECLARE #date VARCHAR(20)
SET #date ='3122019'
IF(LEN(#date) = 8)
BEGIN
SET #date = Stuff(Stuff(#date,5,0,'.'),3,0,'.');
SELECT CONVERT(DATE, #date , 103);
END
ELSE IF(LEN(#date) = 7)
BEGIN
SET #date = Stuff(Stuff(#date,4,0,'.'),2,0,'.');
IF(ISDATE(#date)=1)
BEGIN
SELECT CONVERT(DATE, #date , 103);
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET #date = Stuff(Stuff(#date,4,0,'.'),3,0,'.');
SELECT CONVERT(DATE, #date , 103);
END
END
ELSE IF(LEN(#date) = 6)
BEGIN
SET #date = Stuff(Stuff(#date,3,0,'.'),2,0,'.');
SELECT CONVERT(DATE, #date , 103);
END
You can add 0 to the left and take 8 chars with right. like RIGHT('0'+'15122018',8). it work with 15122018 and 3122018
select convert (date, Stuff(Stuff( RIGHT('0'+'15122018',8) ,5,0,'.'),3,0,'.'),104)
Such conversation can be achieved by:
Casting integer value to DATE using intermediate FORMAT transformation to a recognizable for conversation string pattern.
style 105 applied to match the input as dd-mm-yyyy
style 05 to match dd-mm-yy
SQL:
-- input format: dmmyyyy
SELECT CONVERT(DATE, FORMAT(3012019, '##-##-####'), 105)
-- result: 2019-01-03
-- input format: dmmyy
SELECT CONVERT(DATE, FORMAT(30119, '##-##-##'), 05)
-- result: 2019-01-03
This will work fine with a single (and double) digit day number, however, it indeed requires a double-digit month

This question may be duplicate sorry for it,As I could not able to find any solution in web till now so am Posting this
I need to create a SQL server functions where I need to replace only the date part from the actual date ..
For example if the actual date is 01/10/2016 means I need to update the actual date to 15/10/2016 the date part alone is replaced from 01 to 15 I need to achieve this, please help me in solving this as am very new to SQL SERVER
DECLARE #actual_due_date INT = 5;
DECLARE #invoice_date DATETIME = '20161210';
DECLARE #due_date DATETIME;
SET #due_date=DATEADD(DAY,#actual_due_date-DATEPART(DAY,#invoice_date),#invoice_date);
SELECT #due_date;
This prints out
2016-12-05 00:00:00.000
Here's another way to do it:
DECLARE #oldDate DATETIME = '2016-10-17 10:29:22'
DECLARE #replacingDate DATE = '2016-10-15'
DECLARE #newDate DATETIME
SET #newDate = CONVERT(datetime, CONVERT(varchar, #replacingDate)+' '+ LEFT(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(time, #oldDate)), 8))
SELECT #newDate
--UPDATE TableA
--SET FieldX = CONVERT(datetime, CONVERT(varchar, #replacingDate)+' '+ LEFT(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(time, #oldDate)), 8))
--WHERE SomeCondition
Don't know, what you really try to achieve, but you could try this:
DECLARE #OtherDate DATETIME = {ts'2016-02-05 12:00:00'}; --Some day in February, 12 o'clock
DECLARE #actualDate DATETIME = GETDATE(); --current day and time
--This comes back with the other date, but the actual time
SELECT CAST(CAST(#OtherDate AS date) AS datetime) + CAST(CAST(#actualDate AS time) AS datetime);
Not sure of the purpose, why you are replacing it.
Here is one way:
Declare #date date = '01/10/2016'
Select Replace(Convert(varchar(20), #date, 101), '01/', '15/') AS ReplacedDate
-- 15/10/2016
I want to get date from yyyy-mm-dd to yyyy-mm-dd in SQL.
Example: I have two parameter #startdate : 2015-12-28 and #enddate : 2016-01-02, and database in SQLServer, datatype is varchar(10)
DATE_ORDER
28-12-2015
30-12-1996
29-12-2016
30-12-1997
24-12-2015
27-12-1993
03-01-2016
01-01-1992
02-01-2016
etc...
Ok,now I want to get data from #startdate : 2015-12-28 and #enddate : 2016-01-02. I use SELECT * FROM TABLE_X WHERE DATE_ORDER >= #startdate AND DATE_ORDER <= #enddate . But the results are not what I expected. Here are the results I want
28-12-2015
30-12-1996
29-12-2016
30-12-1997
01-01-1992
02-01-2016
I think to solve this problem, I need to do two things :
First, get date range from #startdate to #enddate , in here 28/12/2015, 29/12/2015, 30/12/2015, 31/12/2015, 01/01/2016, 02/01/2016.
The second: get the date in database same in range 28/12, 29/12, 30/12, 31/12, 01/01, 02/01, ignoring the year.
Can you give me some ideas about this ?
Your actual format is "105-italian" find details here.
You can convert your existing VARCHAR(10)-values with this line to real datetime
SELECT CONVERT(DATETIME,YourColumn,105)
Next thing to know is, that you should not use BETWEEN but rather >=StartDate AND < NakedDateOfTheFollowingDay to check date ranges
So to solve your need Get date-range from 2015-12-28 to 2016-01-02 you might do something like this:
DECLARE #Start DATETIME={d'2015-12-28'};
DECLARE #End DATETIME={d'2016-01-02'};
SELECT *
FROM YourTable
WHERE CONVERT(DATETIME,YourDateColumn,105)>=#Start AND CONVERT(DATETIME,YourDateColumn,105)<#End+1
Attention Be aware, that the conversion lets your expression be not sargable. No index will be used.
Better was to store your date as correctly typed data to avoid conversions...
Try this query
SET DATEFIRST 1
DECLARE #wk int SET #wk = 2
DECLARE #yr int SET #yr = 2011
--define start and end limits
DECLARE #todate datetime, #fromdate datetime
SELECT #fromdate = dateadd (week, #wk, dateadd (YEAR, #yr-1900, 0)) - 4 -
datepart(dw, dateadd (week, #wk, dateadd (YEAR, #yr-1900, 0)) - 4) + 1
SELECT #todate = #fromdate + 6
;WITH DateSequence( Date ) AS
(
SELECT #fromdate AS Date
UNION ALL
SELECT dateadd(DAY, 1, Date)
FROM DateSequence
WHERE Date < #todate
)
--select result
SELECT * FROM DateSequence OPTION (MaxRecursion 1000)
So, after the 2nd or 3rd edit, it slowly becomes clear, what you want (i hope).
So you REALLY WANT to get the dates with the year beeing ignored.
As someone pointed out already, date-values are stored internally not as string, but as internal datatype date (whatever that is in memory, i don't know).
If you want to compare DATES, you cannot do that with ignorance of any part. If you want to, you have to build a NEW date value of day and month of given row and a hard coded year (2000 or 1 or whatever) for EVERY row.
SELECT * FROM TABLE_X WHERE convert(date,'2000' + substring(convert(char(8),convert(datetime, 'DATE_ORDER', 105),112),5,4),112) >= #startdate AND convert(date,'2000' + substring(convert(char(8),convert(datetime, 'DATE_ORDER', 105),112),5,4),112) <= #enddate
If your startdate and enddate go OVER sylvester, you have to do 2 queries, on from startdate to 1231, one from 0101 to enddate.
I need to get a random date-time within a range of 2 date-times in T-SQL for MS-SQL server 2012. It is necessary for me that it goes to the precision of seconds, I need DATETIME2(0) as datatype for both input and output. I have done some research online but the answers I could find are either for dates only or are for other database types.
The code should do something like:
Input: ('2015-01-01 08:22:13' , '2015-03-05 17:56:31') <-- I will use a select statement to replace these absolute numbers
Return: ('2015-02-11 14:32:45') <--this should be randomized
Can anyone help me out with this?
Thanks in advance
One option is to randomize the numbers of seconds between FromDate and ToDate, and then add it to FromDate. Hope it works for you.
DECLARE #FromDate DATETIME2(0)
DECLARE #ToDate DATETIME2(0)
SET #FromDate = '2015-01-01 08:22:13'
SET #ToDate = '2015-03-05 17:56:31'
DECLARE #Seconds INT = DATEDIFF(SECOND, #FromDate, #ToDate)
DECLARE #Random INT = ROUND(((#Seconds-1) * RAND()), 0)
SELECT DATEADD(SECOND, #Random, #FromDate)
I am using the following way to compare two dates:
if CONVERT(varchar(20), #ScheduleDate, 101) >= CONVERT(varchar(20), #CurrentDateTime, 101)
This is working fine for the current year, but when the comes in yearly like one date is 12/31/2012 and 1/1/2013 then its not working.
Please help me how can I resolve this.
why do you comparing strings?
you can compare dates
if #ScheduleDate >= #CurrentDateTime
but if your date contains time, I usually do
if convert(nvarchar(8), #ScheduleDate, 112) >= convert(nvarchar(8), #CurrentDateTime, 112)
112 datetime format is YYYYMMDD so it's good for compare dates
You have to remember that string comparison is from left to right, so "1/...." is smaller than "12/...".
You need to use DATETIME comparisons, not string comparison.
Something like
DECLARE #ScheduleDate DATETIME = '1/1/2013',
#CurrentDateTime DATETIME = '12/31/2012'
IF (#ScheduleDate >= #CurrentDateTime)
BEGIN
SELECT #ScheduleDate, #CurrentDateTime
END
DECLARE #ScheduleDateString VARCHAR(20) = '1/1/2013',
#CurrentDateTimeString VARCHAR(20) = '12/31/2012'
IF (CONVERT(DATETIME,#ScheduleDateString,101)>=CONVERT(DATETIME,#CurrentDateTimeString,101))
BEGIN
SELECT CONVERT(DATETIME,#ScheduleDateString,101),CONVERT(DATETIME,#CurrentDateTimeString,101)
END
SQL Fiddle DEMO
Note that if the variables are already datetimes, you do not need to convert them.
Assuming that both variables are currently DateTime variables, can't you just compare them without converting to strings?
declare #ScheduleDate DATETIME, #CurrentDateTime DATETIME
SET #ScheduleDate = '1 Jan 2013'
SET #CurrentDateTime = GetDate()
IF (#ScheduleDate >= #CurrentDateTime)
BEGIN
SELECT 'Do Something'
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SELECT 'Do Something Else'
END
when you use CONVERT(nvarchar(8), #ScheduleDate, 112) function it's return string instead of date.
so,
Use "112" DateFormat in Sql Server it's return string in "YMD" format without any sepration.
compare that string in your query and get desire output.
Such as "if CONVERT(nvarchar(8), #ScheduleDate, 112) >= CONVERT(nvarchar(8), #CurrentDateTime, 112)"
I would not use CONVERT to compare formatted strings. It is slow (well, more like microseconds, but still)
I use a UDF for SQL prior to version 2008
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[DateOnly] (#Date DateTime)
RETURNS Datetime AS
BEGIN
Return cast (floor (cast (#Date as float)) as DateTime)
END
and for versions >=2008 this approach
select convert(#MyDateTime as DATE)
Of course, you can compare datetime values directly, but to know whether two datetime values are on the same date (ignoring the time component), the above versions have proven to be effectivy.
Date : From and To with following format
from_Date# = #dateformat("#form.from#", "mm/dd/yyyy")
to_Date# = #dateformat("#now()#" + 1, "mm/dd/yyyy")
In SQL Statement
WHERE a.DateCreated >= CAST ('#from_date#' AS DATE) and a.DateCreated <= CAST('#to_date#' AS DATE)
This is working fine without any cast of original date time column
A SQL Server application we use (accpac) represents dates as an 8 digit decimal in ISO format (example: today's date is 20100802)
I need to add one month to this. I've found a way to do it, but there must be a better way.
The steps of my solution are:
declare #accpacDate as decimal
set #accpacDate = 20100101
declare #date1 as date
declare #date2 as date
set #date1=cast(CAST(#accpacDate as varchar(8)) as datetime) /*get the starting value as a date */
set #date2=DATEADD(month,1,#date1)
select CONVERT(varchar(8),#date2,112) as aVarchar
select convert(decimal,CONVERT(varchar(8),#date2,112)) as aDecimal
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(8),DATEADD(MONTH,1,CONVERT(VARCHAR(8),20100802,112)),112)
It seems about right what you are doing.
String and Date manipulation is pretty core in SQL, no fancy wrappers for auto-converting and manipulating date formats (accpac, memories, shiver).
You could write that into a user function, to add days to a accpac date, and return the result:
create function accpacadd
( #accpacdate decimal,
#days int)
RETURNS decimal
AS BEGIN
declare #date1 as datetime
set #date1=cast(CAST(#accpacDate as varchar(8)) as datetime) /*get the starting value as a date */
set #date1=DATEADD(day, #days, #date1)
return convert(decimal, CONVERT(varchar(8), #date1, 112))
END
So then you can just call it with min code:
select dbo.accpacadd(20100102, 5)
select dbo.accpacadd(20100102, -5)
Gives 20100107 and 20091228 respectively
