Select to_date(to_char(date_part('year',current_date),'0000') || trim(to_char(date_part('month',current_date),'00')) || '01','YYYYMMDD')
So far, this is the best I can come up with.
I am also unable to find a comprehensive language reference for Netezza SQL that has all functions in it, so please include a source in your answer.
Use date_trunc('month', current_ date), which is documented here.
Start with the date, for what I needed today, was using current date/month. Then find the last day of the current month. That's the outer shell for the first day as a systematic output:
start with the current date
use add_months (-1) to subtract a month;
find the last day of the previous month;
add 1 day.
I then decided to test out on February (leap year and normal), finding the first from the first, and then adding in finding the first of the next month. Also checked looking at a month ago from a month ending 31st and 30th. I think this should be flexible.
select current_date,
last_day(add_months(current_date,-1))+1 as firstdt_currmos,
last_day(current_date) as lastdt_currmos
;
select last_day(add_months('02-29-2016',-1))+1 as firstdt_febleap,
last_day(add_months('02-28-2019',-1))+1 as firstdt_febnorm,
last_day(add_months('07-01-2019',-1))+1 as firstdt_first,
last_day(add_months(current_date,-1))+1 as firstdt_currmos,
last_day(current_date)+1 as firstdt_nextmos,
last_day(add_months('07-31-2019',-1))+1 as firstdt_mos31st,
date(add_months('07-31-2019',-1)) as mosago_31st,
date(add_months('06-30-2019',-1)) as mosago_30th
;
I need some help. I want to get the week number of a specific date with the following system:
The week containing January 1st is the first week of the year. The week begins on Sunday. Range 1-53.
For example:
- Week 1 of 2015 begins on Sun 12/28/14 and ends on Sat 01/03/15.
- Week 1 of 2016 begins on Sun 12/27/15 and ends on Sat 01/02/15.
- Week 1 of 2017 begins on Sun 01/01/17 and ends on Sat 07/01/17.
I have read the WEEK(date[,mode]) function documentation, but none of these 'modes' match with my requirements.
How can I achieve this?
You can probably get this by using the DAYOFWEEK function. It will return you the value of what the day is (1-7 where 1 is Sunday, etc). From there, you can determine when the week has started and when it will end.
You have the WEEKOFYEAR as well. Please go thru manual
I was having the same problem, the function YEARWEEK solved it for me
SELECT YEARWEEK("2016-01-01");
>> 201552
I'm trying to create a query in google sheets that will pull data for the week so far. I can use the NDaysAgo filter to get the last 7 days but what I really need is from Monday to Sunday, and I don't want to have to go and edit the sheets every week. Also, if this can be done for weekly, I'd use the same formula for a month-to-date solution as well.
Thanks!
I am going to assume you are doing this in app Script.
Remember app script is just JavaScript. The following will return the previous Monday for a date.
var d = new Date();
var day = d.getDay(),
diff = d.getDate() - day + (day == 0 ? -6:1); // adjust if day is Sunday
Logger.log( new Date(d.setDate(diff)));
Use the getDay method of Date objects, you can find the number of the day of the week (being 0=Sunday, 1=Monday, etc).
You can then subtract that number of days plus one. result was:
[15-01-20 08:56:33:691 CET] Mon Jan 19 08:56:33 GMT+01:00 2015
i need to calculate the number of worked days in a particular month. i have start date and end date depending on this i have to calculate the worked days in particular month. in ssrs report please help me with a ssrs expression to solve the problem.
i have a logic to do this but how to do it in a SSRS expression is a problem.
the logic is:
if(start date is in January than
start date-31/1/2014)
//this will give me the worked days in January
if(start date is not in January
start date-1/1/2014 //this gives me working days till January
(total working days)-( start date-1/1/2014)//this gives me working days after January 1
if((total working days)-( start date-1/1/2014)>31
then my answer is 31 days worked in January.
i have to convert this logic in to ssrs expression, is it possible?
is there any alternate way to do this ?
please help me with this.
Examples:
'DD/MM/YYYY
"1/1/2009" should give `1`
"31/1/2009" should give `5`
"1/2/2009" should also give `5`
Format("1/2/2009", "ww") returns 6.
So, how can I get the correct result?
It's doing two things here which don't match your expectations, I think:
Assuming you want the week with Jan 1 in as week 1, and using Sunday as first day of the week
So it has week 1 running from Sunday 28th December 2008 to Saturday 3rd Jan 2009.
Week 6 would begin on Sunday 1st Feb by this method.
The ISO standard is for week 1 to be the one containing 4 days of January, or the first Thursday of the year (different ways of expressing the same thing).
You can specify this method of calculation and the first day of the week:
Format(SomeDate,"ww",vbMonday,vbFirstFourDays)
see here for syntax:
https://support.office.com/en-US/article/Format-Function-6F29D87B-8761-408D-81D3-63B9CD842530
Regardless of the day of the week your week starts on, you need to pass unambiguous date values. "31/1/2009" can only be one date (Jan 31st), but "1/2/2009" could be Jan. 2 (US style) or Feb. 1st (everybody else who has more sense that we USAns).
In this case, I'd use DateSerial() to make sure the date is not misinterpreted:
Format(DateSerial(2009,2,1), "ww", vbMonday)
While this is not causing your problem, because Access helpfully utilizes your system's localized date settings, I think it's something you should do anyway. You certainly are forced to do so in SQL in Access, so I don't think it's a bad habit in code and expressions.
This might work: Format(YourDate, "ww",vbMonday)
"Correct result" depends on the locale. Maybe VBA will let you pick a calendar-system, otherwise you're pretty much out of luck.
Note that First-Day-On-xxDay isn't your only problem. There is also variation on what a complete week is so Week 1 in one system could be Week 53 of the previous year in another system.
So test thoroughly and don't be seduced to "correct by 1".
There is a whole standard for week numbers: ISO-8601
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601#Week_dates
I had the same problem.
It showed week 53 and week 1, yet days in week 53 and week 1 are all in week 1
I first tried changing the date format in the Access Query to this:
OrderWeek: Format([OrderDate],"yyyy-ww",1,3) <-- But it did not do the trick.
You get dates like 2014-52 for week 52 and 2015-52 where it was week 1 before.
Also the sorting was not how I liked. It sorted the data as 2014-1, 2014-11, 2014-2 etc. I want it to show as 2014-01, 2014-02 .. 2014-11 etc.
So here is the new code to display both the year and the week correctly in an Access Query:
ActualWeek: IIf(DatePart("ww",[SomeDate])=53,DatePart("yyyy",[SomeDate])+1,DatePart("yyyy",[SomeDate])) & "-" & IIf(DatePart("ww",[SomeDate])=53,"01",IIf(DatePart("ww",[SomeDate])<10,"0" & DatePart("ww",[SomeDate]),DatePart("ww",[SomeDate])))
This now shows any days from week 53 as being part of week 1
If sunday is the first day of the week (as it is in some locales) then 6 is the correct weeknumber for "1/2/2009" (february 1. 2009)
In terms of the sorting, I had the same issue and used this code to resolve it:
IIf(Format([SomeDate],"ww")<10,Format([SomeDate],"yyyy-") & "0" & Format([SomeDate],"ww"),Format([SomeDate],"yyyy-ww"))
If the week number is less than 10, add a zero, else leave it as is.
Now the sorting is fine. Hope this helps somebody.
