Hi,
DateDiff function returns the difference (number) between two input dates in terms of the specified date-parts, following a standard Gregorian calendar.
Syntax
DateDiff ( date1, date2, date_part )
date1+ is the number representing the input date between January 1, 1970 and Dec 31, 2037. The number is the number of seconds elapsed since midnight, January 1, 1970. To retrieve this number, use any of the following functions: Today(), TodateEx(), GetFirstDate(), GetLastDate(), DateRoll().
Date-time attribute properties of a member can also be used to retrieve this number. For example,
Product.currentmember.[Intro Date] returns the product introduction date for the current product in context.
[Cola].[Intro Date] returns the product introduction date for Cola.
date2+ A second input date. See date1.
date_part+ Defined time components as per the standard calendar.
DP_YEAR - Year of the input date.
DP_QUARTER - Quarter of the input date.
DP_MONTH - Month of the input date.
DP_WEEK - Week of the input date.
DP_DAY - Day of the input date.

Formula to calculate the date difference

Hi Experts,
I am having a requirement . where i need to create the query with difference between the two dates. like date1 and date2
Now i have created a formula for this diff =date1 - date 2 now the client want that this operation has to b executed when date2 hold some value r else "diff" column has to b blank.
Regards

KK,
if (date_diff > 0) * date_diff.
it will first check wheather data_diff >0 . Suppose its value is 5.
now after that v r multiplying with date_diff ie 5 then the result will be 25 right ??
--> No, if (date_diff > 0) is boolean operation return "0" or "1" only. if its true then 1 or 0.
So: same example: if (date_diff > 0) * date_diff --> 1*5 = 5.
Hope it Helps

How to calculate the hour difference between two dates?

hi all,
how to calculate the hour difference between two dates?
eg i trying this...
((TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(GRNi.reference_date_4,'hh24:mi'),'hh24:mi') -
TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(NVL(GRNi.reference_date_3,SYSDATE),'hh24:mi'),'hh24:mi'))*24)*60 Act_Hr
Reg.
AAK

Hi
To break the diff between 2 dates into days, hours, minutes, sec -- you can use the following:
select to_char( created, 'dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi:ss' ),
trunc( sysdate-created ) "Dy",
trunc( mod( (sysdate-created)*24, 24 ) ) "Hr",
trunc( mod( (sysdate-created)*24*60, 60 ) ) "Mi",
trunc( mod( (sysdate-created)*24*60*60, 60 ) ) "Sec",
to_char( sysdate, 'dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi:ss' ),
sysdate-created "Tdy",
(sysdate-created)*24 "Thr",
(sysdate-created)*24*60 "Tmi",
(sysdate-created)*24*60*60 "Tsec"

Thanks

you can use beans or create a case when statement like:
case
when TimeStampDiff(SQL_TSI_Min, table.column1, table.column2 ) <= 60 then 1 else
when TimeStampDiff(SQL_TSI_Min, table.column1, table.column2 ) > 60 and TimeStampDiff(SQL_TSI_Min, table.column1, table.column2 ) <= 90 then 1.5 else
when TimeStampDiff(SQL_TSI_Min, table.column1, table.column2 ) > 90 and TimeStampDiff(SQL_TSI_Min, table.column1, table.column2 ) <= 150 then 2.5 else
end

In AP invoice i need to make "Terms date " field to calculate the date automatically when i select the payment terms

In AP invoice i need to make "Terms date " field to calculate the date automatically when i select the payment terms.
How can i do this?

Hi,
You can select the Payment Term at PO Header Level.
When you book an invoice, that Payment Term will automatically defaulted to Invoice.
You can define Payment Term in AP.
Payment terms have one or more payment terms lines, each of which creates one scheduled payment. Each payment terms line and each corresponding scheduled payment has a due date or a discount date based on either a specific day of a month, such as the 15th of the month, or a number of days added to your terms date, such as 14 days after the terms date.

Xcelsius doesn't display the date difference in Preview

Hi,
Im using the Xcelsius Enterprise 2008 and I use XML connectivity for the source. I would like to do some date difference calculation on my spread sheet. But the result of the date difference does no appear on the Preview for some reason. My XML file has got the date format dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm. I tried to convert the date to number format by multiplying the date by 1. When I do this the result appears correctly as I want on the Preview, but the problem is when there is a first refresh, the date difference shows a error value "#Value". I tried to enable XML Map Properties -> When refreshing or importing data:
1. Overwrite existing data with new data
2. Append new data to existing XML lists.
But still not of any use. Could any one please give me a tip to resolve my problem.
Many thanks in advance.
Priya

Hi Priya
Can you please tell me what formula are you using to take difference in dates?
Just to tell you as a point of information, Xcelsius is capable to handle very limited set of formulas. In spreadsheet you will see the formula working perfectly fine but right after hitting preview button you wont be able to see values calculated by certain formulas in Excel. So, its always good to use less and very basic formulas.

Using Numbers, can I calculate the date that will be eg 45 days ahead of a given date?

Using Numbers, can I calculate the date that will be eg 45 days ahead of a given date?

MWB,
Certainly. Let's say that your given date is in B2. The date 45 days earlier can be found with:
=B2 – 45.
Almost seems too simple.

I need show every square wave of six out channels in waveform and measure the A-B phase difference to check if the value is correct (designed value should be 90deg) .
I have no idea how to measure or calculate the phase difference of two square wave base on synchronizate to acquire these two square wave from two channel on the PCI-6620....
Anyone can give a idea how to calculate the phase difference with two square wave ?

How to calculate the month difference between two date char. in Query?

Customers would like to see how many months passed between two date type of characteristics (e.g., the month difference between the current date and the scheduled delivery date in the record) and put the result into the column as KF.
We would have to grab the fiscal year/period kind of value and then do the subtraction, e.g., if the current date value is 2/28/2008 and the scheduled delivery date value in the record is 12/01/2007, the correct result should be 2 month difference between these two date values, but could someone here give us the technical light on how to make this happen in query design?
Thanks and we will give you reward points for the correct anwsers!

Hi Kevin,
The Badi is RSR_OLAP_BADI.
You can create an implementation using Transaction SE18.
The implementation is per cube and is defined in the filters.
In the Implementation you have the following methods :
1. Define : Here you will provide the Keyfigure you need as a virtual one.
2. Initilialize : Any Init Function you want to do.
3. Compute. This is called per datarecord and here you can cimpute your value.
Hope this helps.

Calculate the date diff

Hi, The requirement is to calculate the diff between 2 date fields and display it. I could able to get the difference between the 2 date fields. But now the result column SHOULD DISPLAY the result ONLY if the 2 date fields have the date set ELSE it should be left blank(basically NULL shud be set to the result column in such cases).
The formula which I have used to get the result is :
(NOERR(date1)<>0 AND NOERR(date2)<>0)*(date1-date2).
The above formula works fine and gives the result as desired except that it puts "0" even though the date fields doenst have a value.I have tried to use the ELSE part by giving "1/0" thinking it wud give me "#" but this didnt help me out anyway.
Any inputs on this...

Thanks for the response.
That was an option which I also thought of and I wud use it only as a last rescue and trying if I can get some info to do it otherwise.
The other option which I have in my mind is to just get this diff into the cube and this shud resolve but then again I hv to chg the BW structures and unnecessarily I wud be increasing the load to the cube.
Any other option in Bex ...???

Calculate the date interval in days

Hi all!
I need your kind help.
I have an oracle sql table.
here is goes..
TABLENAME: RACE
DATE NAME
11-JAN-12 JAMES
12-JAN-12 JAMES
14-JAN-12 JAMES
17-JAN-12 JAMES
22-JAN-12 JAMES
01-FEB-12 JOHN
11-FEB-12 JOHN
13-FEB-12 JOHN
14-FEB-12 JOHN
28-FEB-12 JOHN
01-MAR-12 JOHN
HOW DO I Calculate the total date interval(difference) for James and John in days?
for example in this case the total is 7 days for James(11-JAN-12 to 12-JAN-12 is 0 days and 12-JAN-12 to 14-JAN-12 is 1 day and 14-JAN-12 to 17-JAN-12 is 2 days) and 24 days for John
The data for the date will be random and can be up to 60 difference dates and names so I will like to calculate for all different names.. Thanks!

Can you explain in more detail why James should have 7 days?
Difference in dates can be easily calculated (if you use the DATE datatype, that is) by simply subtracting them.
Example:
SQL> -- generating sample data:
SQL> with race as (
2 select to_date('11-JAN-12', 'dd-mon-yy') dt, 'JAMES' nm from dual union
3 select to_date('12-JAN-12', 'dd-mon-yy'), 'JAMES' from dual union
4 select to_date('14-JAN-12', 'dd-mon-yy'), 'JAMES' from dual union
5 select to_date('17-JAN-12', 'dd-mon-yy'), 'JAMES' from dual union
6 select to_date('22-JAN-12', 'dd-mon-yy'), 'JAMES' from dual union
7 select to_date('01-FEB-12', 'dd-mon-yy'), 'JOHN' from dual union
8 select to_date('11-FEB-12', 'dd-mon-yy'), 'JOHN' from dual union
9 select to_date('13-FEB-12', 'dd-mon-yy'), 'JOHN' from dual union
10 select to_date('14-FEB-12', 'dd-mon-yy'), 'JOHN' from dual union
11 select to_date('28-FEB-12', 'dd-mon-yy'), 'JOHN' from dual union
12 select to_date('01-MAR-12', 'dd-mon-yy'), 'JOHN' from dual
13 )
14 --
15 -- actual query:
16 --
17 select max(dt)-min(dt) diff
18 ,      nm
19 from   race
20 group by nm;
      DIFF NM
        29 JOHN
        11 JAMESHowever, that is not your desired resultset. We (at least: I) need a bit more explanation why James should have 7 as date difference...
Also: DATE and NAME ar not suitable as column names.
