Hi Muzammil,
In data range section you can have multiple options like setting start datetime and end datetime.. And you can set the shift (or) time period and also the format of the time periods.
Primarily we use the start date and end date querying to fetch data between two time labels. I can explain this one with example..
You have batch production table with columns Production Time, Batch Id, Production Qty. Then you want all the details between the 02/02/2007 to 05/02/2007.
Solution :
1.Map 02/02/2007 with Start date.
2.Map 05/02/2007 with end dare.
Now these two become the variables [SD] and [ED].
Now you have mentioned the date range, but you need to mention for which column these things to be applied. For that
3.In Query tab enter Production Time column name in Date column at the bottom.
Now you have written query like Select * from batch prodcution where production time > 02/02/2007 and production time < 05/02/2007.
4. Even those values you mapped (SD and ED) you can change from the front page through Java script.
Like wise you have so many other advantages also.
If you have any other specific doubt let me know.
Thanks,
Rajesh.
PS : Please ward points if answer is useful. <<<<<<<<

About Date Range Selection in Contributor Recognition Program- List

Hello SCN,
Happy that we have a classified date range selection like Year wise, Contest period wise and also with date range in the Top Contributors list. However earlier we had a luxury to see the point classified as "All Time Contribution". I personally feel to get back this option as well in the list.
Dear SDNers share your suggestion on this.
Thanks,

Hi,
If you want the user to select the date directly rather than entering, you need not to have a dropdown menu in WAD. Directly go to the query which you have selected for the object in WAD, there create a variable with calendar. Put it mandatory, so that the user selection of the date will be mandatory. The variable will be automatically be available when you execute the template inn the browser.

Passing the Date range within the query

Hi ,
In my query , I have two date characteristic, and while doing the selection I have to do selection on only one date field.
This selection is a date range selection , So I have used a selection variable for this.
Can anyone please let me know if it is possible to pass the selection range to other variable. Is it possible to use Customer exit to pass the complete range.
Thanks
Altair

Hi,
You can do it in the user exit.And that is the only approach to transfer the values of one variable to other variable .
Search this forum for the code. you will find lot of postings.

Can I use SYSDATE in the WHERE clause to limit the date range of a query

Hi,
Basicaly the subject title(Can I use SYSDATE in the WHERE clause to limit the date range of a query) is my question.
Is this possible and if it is how can I use it. Do I need to join the table to DUAL?
Thanks in advance.

As previous poster said, no data is null value, no value. If you want something, you have nvl function to replace null value by an other more significative value in your query.<br>

You will need to use union report, and you would have fours union's in this report.
Union - 1: Data from 1st Date Range
Union - 2: Data from 2nd Date Range
Union - 3: Variance Calculation
Union - 4: Percentage Variance Calculation.
If the date's are coming from the same field, use cast function to use the same column twice in your prompts. Apply filters on each union as needed.
Thanks.

How to use 2 Dropdown box in webapplication for date range selection

Dear all,
I am working on a report that will show 2 drop down boxes. These should be used as a date range.
This works fine if I use 2 variables as a date range on 0CALYEAR. However I dont want the user to fill in the dates but selecting the dates with 2 drop down boxes.
I cannot manage to get this to work. I saw some comments about user exits in the forum but I cannot figure it out if there is an easier way.
Could you give me an idea of what to do?
Thanks a lot,
Andreas

Drop Down Box for Date Range Selection

I have multiple queries on the same worksheet with different variables for each. To simplify changing the one consistent variable, the date range, I have added a drop down box tied to all infoproviders in the query. This would work if I wanted to select a single date but I cannot determiine how to select a date range (01/2010 - 12/2010). Any ideas on how I might accomplish this? I am using Netweaver 7.1.

You can use two single-input variables: one for DATE FROM and the other for DATE TO and use them in query definition to restrict the date (restriction type: Range between DATE FROM and DATE TO).
Then you create two dropdown boxes, one for each variable.

User Prompt for Date Range in Bex Query Analyzer

I have a workbook that has two queries. The queries both require the user to enter a date range upon refresh. I want the user to be able to hit refresh, enter the date input into the dialog box and then both queries to use this date range for their input. I have seen this in other book, but when I click refresh on my book it only runs the first query. How do I get the second query to use the first queries input?

use the same variable in both the queries. this will let the user enter the date in a single variable and this will refresh both the queries.

Date range selection from session/server variables - possible solution

I've recently been creating some reports who'se selection is based on the contents of a session variable, using this against a date field. Thought I'd share with everyone how I did it.
1/ Create a server/static variable called DATE_FORMAT who'se contents are 'dd/mm/yy' . Note, should include the single quotes.
2/ Create 2 session variables that represent the beginning/end date range for your selection you are after - in my case, it was the first & last date of the previous month, PREVIOUS_PERIOD_FROM and PREVIOUS_PERIOD_TO
3/ In the selection, add a filter on the date field in question, set the Operator as "is between".
4/ for each of the 2 valaues, select Add->SQL expression and enter:
EVALUATE('TO_DATE(%1,%2)',VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION."PREVIOUS_PERIOD_FROM"),VALUEOF("DATE_FORMAT"))
and
EVALUATE('TO_DATE(%1,%2)',VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION."PREVIOUS_PERIOD_TO"),VALUEOF("DATE_FORMAT"))

Date Range: Select which Qtr a date falls into

Hi All
I am looking for some code that takes a date passed into a variable and calculates which Quarter it is in.
My client uses Quarters:
Feb - Apr (Q1)
May - Jul (Q2)
Aug - Oct (Q3)
Nov - Jan (Q4)
So, if I pass a date of 21-Mar-2007 into the Variable, the code takes the date, calculates that the date is in Q1 and then returns the date of 200702 (the YEAR/ MONTH of the First Month in the Quarter) into the BW report.
I have searched the forums and can't find anything that would work, so you help is much appreciated.

Hi Ajay
Thanks very much for your response.
I'm having a few difficulties getting the code to work in our environment, so was hoping you could help me tune it.
Input is Current Month
Output is First Month of Current Quarter
So, using this code, how can I pass the input date into the code?
(I'm sorry if this is obvious, I'm really new to SAP Development, so the answer may be and most probably is really obvious)

Hi all,
I have created a report based on query and i want to put date range selection but query giving problem.

But what i need is that user will enter date range as creation_date1,creation_date2 and query should return all the records between these date range. i want to pass it by creating items, i created two items and passing creation_date range to display all records but not displaying and if not passing date then should take null as default and display all records
Here is the query:
/* Formatted on 2006/12/10 20:01 (Formatter Plus v4.8.0) */

can any one tell me wat is wroung in this query.
Any other way to write this?

Hi User....
Here is some date range SQL that my teams uses with some success:
For date columns that do not contain NULL values, try this (note the TRUNC, it might help with your "today" problem).
The hard coded dates allow users to leave the FROM and TO dates blank and still get sensible results (ie a blank TO date field asks for all dates in the future.
AND TRUNC(DATE_IN_DATABASE)
BETWEEN
decode( :P1_DATE_FROM,
TO_DATE('01-JAN-1900'),
:P1_DATE_FROM)
AND
decode( :P1_DATE_TO,
TO_DATE('31-DEC-3000'),:
:P1_DATE_TO)
For date columns that contain NULL values, try this (a little bit trickier):
AND nvl(TRUNC(DATE_IN_DATABASE),
decode( :P1_DATE_FROM,
decode( :P1_DATE_TO,
TO_DATE('30-DEC-3000'),
NULL),
NULL)
BETWEEN
decode( :P1_DATE_FROM,
TO_DATE('01-JAN-1900'),
:P1_DATE_FROM)
AND
decode( :P1_DATE_TO,
TO_DATE('31-DEC-3000'),
:P1_DATE_TO)
Note the 30-DEC-3000 versus 31-DEC-3000. This trick returns the NULL dates when the FROM and TO date range items are both blank.
I hope this helps.
By the way, does anyone have a better way of doing this? The requirement is given a date column in a database and a FROM and a TO date item on a page,
find all of the dates in the database between the FROM and TO dates. If the FROM date is blank, assume the user want all dates in the past (excluding NULL dates). If the TO date is blank, assume that the user wants all of the dates in the future (excluding NULL dates). If both FROM and TO dates are blank, return all of the dates in the databse (including NULL dates).
Cheers,
Patrick
