BETWEEN function with dates

Hi,
how do i edit my where clause to display between the SYSDATE and exactly one month before that date?
i know it's something like
WHERE last_used >=SYSDATE
AND last_used is <=??????
i don't know what to put after that...
anybody know?

Daniel,
This might get you what you want:
WHERE last_used >=SYSDATE
AND last_used is <= add_months(sysdate, -1)
If this answers your question, please assign points and close the question..
Thank you,

BETWEEN FUNCTION WITH IN A DECODE FUNTION IN A CURSOR

The following below is my query..I have to get the hours,min and seconds from a 'yyyy-mm-dd-24hh.mi.ss' value and check if the time is between 12 am to 6 am , then write it with one value else write an another value..I am trying to use 'BETWEEN' function in decode function but i am getting error.....Can we use BETWEEN function with in decode function or is there any other way
set serveroutput on
declare
cursor cur_dte is select lst_upd_date from EMPLOYESS ;
begin
for i in cur_dte loop
DECODE (substr(trim(i.lst_upd_date),12)) ,between '00.00.00.0000' and '06.00.00.00.0000' ,101,102);
dbms_output.put_line(i.lst_upd_date);
end loop;
end

First of all. If you are in PL/SQL then CASE is just a more colmplex expression then IF THEN ELSE. I usually prefere If then else, but for some rare cases.
The other issue is that you convert a datetime value into a string. This is wrong. it opens up all possible kinds of cenversion bugs. Stay with date or timestamp as long as possible.
The solution depends a little upon the datatype of your lst_upd_date column.
Here is a pl/sql solution assuming it is DATE.
The TRUNC function can be used to reduce a datetime to a day or to an hour.
declare
   cursor cur_dte is select lst_upd_date from employees ;
begin
   for i in cur_dte loop
     if trunc(i.lst_upd_date,'HH') between trunc(i.lst_upd_date) and trunc(i.lst_upd_date)+6/24 then
        dbms_output.put_line(to_char(i.lst_upd_date,'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS'));
     end if;
   end loop;
end;
/But a pure SQL solution is much better.
Here is how you implement it using CASE in SQL.
example using pure sql
select e.*,
        case when trunc(e.lst_upd_date,'HH')
               between trunc(e.lst_upd_date) and trunc(e.lst_upd_date)+6/24
        then 101
        else 102
        end as "early_morning_check"
from employees e;And if it is a timestamp column then you could use the EXTRACT function.
select e.*,
        case when to_number(extract(hour from e.lst_upd_date))
               between 0 and 6
        then 101
        else 102
        end as "early_morning_check"
from employees e;You might want to consider if date values like 06:45:00 should be included or not.

How to use aggregate function with Date

Hi All,
I have a group of date from that is it possible to Max and Min of date.
I have tried like this but its errored out <?MIN (current-group()/CREATION_DATE)?>.
I have also tried like this but it doesnt works
<?xdoxslt:minimum(CREATION_DATE)?>
Is it possible to use aggregate function with date values.
Thanks & Regards

Hi KAVI PRIYA,
if date is not in cannonical format, how can we change it in BI publisher, then how to calcualte minimum and as well as maximum.
please advise me,

How to use TRUNC function with dates in Expression Builder in OBIEE.

Hi There,
How to use TRUNC function with dates in Expression Builder in OBIEE.
TRUNC (SYSDATE, 'MM') returns '07/01/2010' where sysdate is '07/15/2010' in SQL. I need to use the same thing in expression builder in BMM layer logical column.
Thanks in advance

use this instead:
TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY, ( DAYOFMONTH(CURRENT_DATE) * -1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE)

Between function for dates in Docmd.OpenReport rptName,,[date-filed] BETWEEN #date1# AND #date2# .. NOT WORKING

Please assist, this is a nightmare indeed.
Am trying to filter records in a report using the BETWEEN function, as below:
strCondition = "Format([tblOrderLineTrack_main].[dtAllocation],'dd/MM/yyyy') BETWEEN Format(#06/02/2015#,'dd/MM/yyyy') AND Format(#07/03/2015#,'dd/MM/yyyy')"
DoCmd.OpenReport strDocName, acViewPreview, , strCondition, acWindowNormal
The report is bringing up all records including those outside the specified range. What could be wrong with this???? Please assist, I am going nuts over this...

The date literals I used are in the
ISO standard for date notation of YYYY-MM-DD so are internationally unambiguous. The only circumstance I can envisage in which it would not return the rows expected would be the extremely unlikely one where all the rows with dates in the range happen
to have a date of 7 March 2015, and all have a non-zero time of day element. There is no such thing in Access as a date value, only a date/time value so #2015-03-07# in fact represents the point of time at midnight at the start of 7 March 2015.
Any rows with date/time values of that date, but with a non-zero time of day would consequently fall outside the range.
The above is so unlikely that I can't believe it to be the case, but the bullet-proof syntax would be:
strCondition = "dtAllocation >= #2015-02-06# " & _
"AND dtAllocation < #2015-03-07#+1"
i.e. all date/time values on or later than the start of the first day of the range (#2015-02-06 00:00:00#) and before the start of the day following the end of the range (#2015-03-08 00:00:00#)
Assuming that the dtAllocation column is of date/time data type, and is returned as such in the report's RecordSource, not as a formatted string expression, I can see no reason on the information available why the above should not work, so if the report is
still not returning any data some other reason not apparent to us must be suspected. We are not in a position to debug the report, however, so what that might be I can't say.

It's hard for me to say what you're doing wrong when I don't know what you're doing. Post a complete test script that people can run to re-create the problem and test their ideas. Include a function definition, CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for any of your own tables (if necessary), and the results you want to get from that data, as well as your query.
How to pass the dates? Can any one help me in this regard.You can call the function like this:

Diff between init with data transfer and repair full request

hi,
i have observed that even in the new flow we are doing init without data transfer and then repair full request
if i do init with data transfer also i can achieve the same?
i want to know why we need to do this ,do we have any advantage of doing init without transfer and repair full request?
please suggest me

Hi Venkat,
A repair full request is loaded in cases where you get erroneous records or where there are missing records which you want to load. In such cases, a repair full request for the selective records can be loaded and is the most efficient way to correct the data, since you won't be required to load the entire data once again. Also you acheive the desired result without disturbing the delta. (You are not required to do an init w/o data transfer after a repair full, people just do it a a precaution)
However, repair full requests should only be loaded to infoproviders with update mode 'overwrite'. Otherwise, if the InfoProvider, its very probable that you might double the value of the key-figures due to rows being added twice - in case of an InfoProvider with update mode 'Additive'. So, if your InfoProvider is additive, you will need to delete the entire data and do an 'init with data transfer' to avoid corrupting the data. (Note: you can do a repair full request for an additive infoprovider in case of lost records or if you can delete erroneous records with selective deletion.But you have to be careful with the selections lest you inadvertently load other records than required and corrupt the data)

could you please help me on this way in order to let the user to input the date?if i add the [%] in the query, it does not bring me the right results

i have already edited the function to

How to use MAX() function with date field

Hi Frzz,
I have created a Graphical calculation view in which i have multiple records for each employee with different dates. But my requirement is to take the records which have maximum date.
I have converted the date into Integer and applied the MAX() function. But still am getting multiple records.
Is there is any other way we can achieve this requirement in Graphical Calculation view?? Your suggestion will really help me.
Thank you.
Krishna.

Hmm... what have you tried out so far?
Look, I took the effort and created a little example, just for you
Assume we have a table that contains the logon dates of users.
Every line contains the logon date and some info on the user.
Very much like a not-normalized log file could look like.
Now, the output we want is: one line per user with the most current logon time.
Not too difficult:
1. Have a aggregation node that gives you the distinct user details - one line for every user:
2. Have another aggregation node that gives you the last (MAX) logon date per user:
Finally you do a 1:1 join on the USER_ID and map the result to the output.
Easy as pie

Query regarding Min function with Date

Dear All,
I have written query as follows but it is giving me error message.
Selection CityCode, CityName, Min(Date)
from Entry
I want to write a query which should generate minimum date of transactions of city. There are about 50 cities in the Entry table and against each city there are thousands of records, I want to display only the oldest date against each city with its code. In the out put there should 50 rows as there are 50 cities and oldest (min) date. Can any one please help on this SQL.
Thanks

Do you want just min date in the table or need grouping by citycode and city name also?
If just min date of the table is needed, use row_number analytic function to get the min date in the table.

Delta between ODS with Data field as key field

Hello,
I have a problem with a data load between two ODS. Below is the scenario
ODS 1 has delivery data with delivery Doc and Delivery Item as key field and Plant,Material, Delivery Qty, etc.. as Data filed
ODS 2 need to create as a aggregare at the plant, material level. So for ODS 2, Key Field is Plant, Material and the Data filed is Delivery Qty (additive), etc...
When I load the Full load it works correctly, But when I bring the data as a delta it is updating the delivery Qty incorrectly and some of the data fileds are comming as blank also eventhough the source ODS (ODS1) has data.
Can we use data filed from ODS1 as a Key filed for ODS2 ?
Is that causing the
Regards,
Biju

Hi,
Looks like someone deleted/ added/ updated some entries in the change log table of ODS1.
Did you check the "Change log" of ODS1 and compare with the delta request of ODS2?
Isn't change log of ODS1 showing the entries you got as part of delta in ODS2?
Another recommendation would be to compare the "Change log" of ODS1 with the "Active" table of ODS1 and see if they are showing the same value of the key figures.

Where in clause vs. between clause with date conditions

Hi Forum.
I am struggling with two different query structures and wonder why one is more costly than the other one. Does anybody have any idea?
Query a) Total Cost: 188. Bytes 511,966. Cardinality: 2,639
Query b) Total Cost: 112. Bytes 511,966. Cardinality: 2,639
Example:
Query a) select * from table where trunc(date_time) between to_date('10/12/2011','DD/MM/YYYY') and to_date('20/12/2011','DD/MM/YYYY') and XYZ_ID = 007
Query b) select * from table where trunc(date_time)
in (
to_date('10/12/2011','DD/MM/YYYY') ,
to_date('11/12/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'),
to_date('12/12/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'),
to_date('13/12/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'),
to_date('14/12/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'),
to_date('15/12/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'),
to_date('16/12/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'),
to_date('17/12/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'),
to_date('18/12/2011','DD/MM/YYYY') ,
to_date('19/12/2011','DD/MM/YYYY') ,
to_date('20/12/2011','DD/MM/YYYY')
and XYZ_ID = 007
-The table has local index on date_time and XYZ_ID
-The table is partitioned like:
PARTITION VALUES LESS THAN (TIMESTAMP' 2011-12-16 00:00:00')
PARTITION VALUES LESS THAN (TIMESTAMP' 2011-12-17 00:00:00')
etc.
-Database: 11gR1
If any other information needed, please ask for it.

Communication between servlets with data

I have a servlet that creates a HTML table (a report) with some data. The data used is a vector of some java objects. Now, I want to add a hyperlink to each row in the table and when clicked, open a new browser window and show the record info in detail. I know how to add a hyperlink and open a new window, but I do not know how to pass the data associated with that (user-clicked) row to a new browser window. The Java object for that row contains 20 items and I do not want to pass them in name-value pair to another servlet. Is there a smarter way to do this ? Can someone please help me?
This is a rough sketch of how I want to put a hyperlink in a row: The following method creates rows in my table:-
private void loadTableData(Vector data, PrintWriter out, int col)
        throws IOException {
        MyRecordObject myRec = null;
        if (data != null) {
            Object[] myArray = null;
            myArray = new Object[data.size()];
            for (int k = 0; k < data.size(); k++) {
                myArray[k] = data.get(k);
            Arrays.sort(myArray, new MySorterClass(col));
            for (int i = 0; i < myArray.length; i++) {
                myRec = (MyRecordObject) myArray;
out.println("<TR bgcolor= \"E5E5E5\"> ");
// When the following hyper link
//is clicked, pass "myRec" object to some servlet/JSP
//and create a new HTML page with that data
out.println("<TD> <a href=\"myDetailInfoServlet_with_data\" target =\"_blank\"> " + myRec.getName() + " </a> </TD>"); // <==
out.println("<TD>" + myRec.getFathersName() + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD>" + myRec.getMothersName() + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD>" + myRec.getPetName() + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD>" + myRec.getSpouseName() + "</TD>");
out.println("</TR>");
out.println("</TBODY>");
out.println("</TABLE>");
out.println("</div>");
out.println("</html>");

My approach would be to just pass along an id with the hyperlink. Something you use to identify which record you want to display. This can be the recordId, or maybe the index of it in the data vector if that is still available and hasn't changed.
eg
out.println("...<a href=\"myDetailInfoServlet_with_data\?id= " + i + " ...
Also, I would recommend using JSPs for this sort of stuff.
For sure, retrieve your data in a servlet, but then just put it into request/session variables, and forward to a JSP to display.
using out.println for table code is a real pain in the butt.
