Discontinued value, first date in month

Hello,
I have one measure Sales Revenue and I need it to show it in two columns in report. In one column have to be Sales Revenue for week and in other Sales Revenue for week-1
I solved it in webi - i did two queries and one prompt. The one query containes only dimensions week, the second query containes week-1. In prompt I put only one value.
Queries are ok, but the output in report containes one values, which is discontinued and I don't know, what does it mean?
The second question is: How can I show the first day of the month?
Thank you for your answer. Have a nice day,
Marika

at the "Data" tab, where you can see all the dimensions and measures
go down , you will find an option to show alphaptical or by query
select Disply by query, so you can see the 2 separate queries with 2 separate items.
good luck
Amr

How to calculate first date of month from a given date in IDT BusinessObjects

Hello Experts,
I have a date field in IDT Universe which shows date in this format: Dec 13,2014 12.00.00 PM. Now I want to extract first day and last day of month from this date value. For example: here I want to see Dec 01,2014 12:00:00 PM and Dec 31, 2014 12:00:00 PM in First day of month and Last day of month columns. Also, if database date value is Nov 17, 2014 12:00:00 PM then in first day of month column, it should show Nov 01, 2014 12:00:00 PM and in last day of month it should show Nov 30, 2014 12:00:00 PM.
I got some google help but 'Date' function is not supported by IDT tool in BusinessObjects.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Try to use the DB Functions to find out the First and last day. Please find out the below screenshot.
If DB is BW, you can calculate the First and last day @ BW level use same object in BO directly.

My below queries are giving me 1st date of year and last date of the month....Kindly hep...
SELECT TRUNC(TO_DATE('24-JUN-2011'),'YEAR') FROM DUAL
SELECT LAST_DAY(ADD_MONTHS('24-JUN-2011',12 -

THNX,
And to get the first date of the month.....Didn't Jeneesh how how to get the first date of the month? Given a DATE dt
TRUNC (dt, 'MONTH')returns midnight of the first day of the month containing dt. That is, the year and month returned are the same as the year and month of dt, but the day, hours minutes and seconds are 01 00:00:00.
Did you mean "And to get the *last* day of the month"?
If so:
LAST_DAY (dt)returns the year, month, hours, minutes and seconds of dt, with the day changed to the last day of the month.

First Date of Month in Oracle

select to_date(to_char(trunc(trunc(to_date(sysdate,'DD-MON-RRRR'), 'MM'), 'MM'),'DD-MON-YYYY')) from dual

What are you trying to achieve exactly? First day of the current month?
If so,
TRUNC(sysdate,'MONTH')Would do it.
::EDIT::
I noticed that you are applying the TO_DATE() function to SYSDATE. SYSDATE is already a date, there is no need to try and convert it.
HTH!

Default value of date as first day of month

Ho can I make my default value of date parameter as first day of month? {$SYSDATE()$} gives only current date and we can make it like {$SYSDATE()-7$} if we want to minus 7 days but how can we set the default value to first day of month?

I got the answer...It is {$FIRST_DAY_OF_MONTH()$} instead of {$SYSDATE()$}

Expression - First date and last date of current month, current year

Hi
I need to have 2 ssrs expression as I can use as default parameters in my report where I can - out from my Time dimension, get the
first date of the current, current year - and one where I get last date, current month, current year.
My data source is a SSAS cube and my timedimension is structured like this:
[Time].[Days].&[2009-01-16T00:00:00]
Any suggestions how to solve this ?

Hi ,
You can use below in Default Values in ssrs ;
for first Day of current month and year
="[Time].[Days].&[" +Format(dateadd("m",0,dateserial(year(Today),month(Today),1)), "yyyy-MM-dd")+"T00:00:00]"
output will be ;
[Time].[Days].&[2014-09-01T00:00:00]
For last day of current month and year
="[Time].[Days].&[" +Format(DateSerial(Year(Now()), Month(Now()), "1").AddMonths(1).AddDays(-1), "yyyy-MM-dd")+"T00:00:00]"
output will be ;
[Time].[Days].&[2014-09-30T00:00:00]
Please correct me if I misunderstood your requirement.

Need help with select that month range with flexible first date

Hello everyone,
I am trying to create a selection of month range (will be in a WITH clause) for a report to display monthly data. But the first month start date can be any date. (Not necessarily the first date of the month)
Examples:
Report input parameters:
Start Date: 08/10/12
End Month: Dec 2012
I was trying to build a with select that will list
Month_Start, Month_End
08/10/12, 31/10/12
01/11/12, 30/11/12
01/12/12, 31/12/12
OR
Month_Start, Next_Month
08/10/12, 01/11/12
01/11/12, 01/12/12
01/12/12, 01/01/13
End month is optional, so if no value the select will list only
08/10/12, 01/11/12
Oracle Database Details is
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production
PL/SQL Release 11.1.0.7.0 - Production
My code so far is
VARIABLE P50_START_DATE VARCHAR2 (10)
VARIABLE P50_END_MONTH    VARCHAR2 (10)
EXEC :P50_START_DATE := '10/10/2012';
EXEC :P50_END_MONTH   := '31/12/2012';
SELECT to_char(:P50_START_DATE) AS start_date
        , ADD_MONTHS( TRUNC(to_date(:P50_START_DATE,'DD/MM/YYYY'),'MONTH'), 1) AS next_month

   --, rownum

   rownum <= months_between(to_date(NVL(:P50_END_MONTH, :P50_START_DATE),'DD/MM/YYYY'), add_months(to_date(:P50_START_DATE,'DD/MM/YYYY'), -1))
   and rownum > 1If I put comment – on line and rownum > 1, as

10/10/2012                     01/11/12    But when I try to remove the duplicate period (of the first month) out by restrict rownum, it do not return any rows for the second select at all. The result I get is:
START_DATE                     NEXT_MONTH
10/10/2012                     01/11/12    Can anyone advise what wrong with the select statement ?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Ann

Hi,
Here's one way:
WITH   params      AS
     SELECT     TO_DATE (:p50_start_date, 'DD/MM/YYYY')     AS start_date
     ,     TO_DATE (:p50_end_month, 'DD/MM/YYYY')     AS end_date
     FROM     dual
SELECT     GREATEST ( start_date
           , ADD_MONTHS ( TRUNC (start_date, 'MONTH')
                        , LEVEL - 1
          )               AS month_start
,     LEAST     ( end_date
          , ADD_MONTHS ( TRUNC (start_date, 'MONTH')
                      , LEVEL
                    ) - 1
          )               AS month_end
FROM    params
CONNECT BY     LEVEL     <= 1 + MONTHS_BETWEEN ( end_date
                                  , TRUNC (start_date, 'MONTH')
;:p50_end_month doesn't have to be the last day of the month; any day will work.
If you want to generate a Counter Table containing the integers 1 througn x in SQL, you could say
SELECT ROWNUM AS n
FROM    all_objects
WHERE   ROWNUM <= x
;but, starting in Oracle 9.1, it's much faster to say
SELECT LEVEL   AS n
FROM    dual    -- or any table containing exactly 1 row
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= x
;Also, x can be greater than the number of rows in all_objects.

To get first date and end date after entering any month and year

Hi,
I need to to get first date and end date of a month and year in yyyyMMdd format. I am reading month and year from a properties file. But I don't know how to get the first date and End date in given format. The properties file gives me just text. But I don't know how to get the date format using this. I need this urgently. Can anyone help me to get code for this?
I am reading the fields as,
Properties props = new Properties();
props.load(new FileInputStream("AnyMonthVolume.properties"));
String date_month = props.getProperty("date_month");
String date_year = props.getProperty("date_year");
Thanks.

I know this has been posted a while ago but incase someone looking for it, here is the code to get the end of current month date.
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
     cal.setTime(new java.util.Date());
     cal.set(Calendar.DATE, 1); //set the date to start of month
     cal.add(Calendar.MONTH,1);
     cal.add(Calendar.DATE,-1);
System.out.println(cal.getTime());

First Date of the Given date and month

Hi Evryone,
I want to extract first day of the given date.
For Ex: i aam giving date "30-jan-2013" but i want to show "01-jan-2013".
In Oracle, Trunc function behaving mentioned above. So i need appropriote function in HANA to get the FIRSTDATE....
I observed HANA Given last_date function but what about First_Date function? can i use it?
Regards,
Chandrakanth

Hi Chandrakanth,
Did you have a look on this blog:
SAP HANA: Get the First Date and the Last Date of Month from a Given Date | WuaWua
There is LAST_DAY in HANA but not FIRST_DAY.
Since last day of the month may vary but first day of the month will always be '01'. Hence they may not have added that function.
So either you can follow that approach in the blog or you can simply replace the day '01'.

Creation of a Query to show the values for the current month and the last 12 months data.

Dear All,
Good day!
I have to create a Query with the below requirement.
I have to create a Query to show the values for the current month and the last 12 months data.
Can you please guide me how to achieve this ??
thank you,
Regards,
Hema

Hema
explain the exact problem..? as you mentioned you want to create query to show values for current month and last 12 months.. so I think you want to show values for 12 months from current data.. you can achive this by multiple way..
you can have selection screen and field with date .. and restrict based on system current date and 12 months before or you can handle this at your target.. .. I mean there are multiple ways to restrict data by date range..
for some more hints..

How to get month last date and first date without FM's

Hi Guru's,
How can we get month's first date and last date based on the date given in selection screen without FM's?Is it possible ?
Like if i give 05-Oct-2008 in the selection screen, i should get the output as 01-Oct-2008 to 31-Oct-2008.Without FM's???
Regards
Rakesh.

Hi Rakesh,
You can implement this logic as follows:
You can have two internal tables, one containing the days as numbered 31, 28, 31, and so on with the month number. This holds good if the year is a common year. Another internal table contains days as numbered 31, 29, 31 and so on with the month number. This year would be a leap year.
An year can be calculated depending on the conditions:
Say date is given as 20081008
Concatenate 20081001 + 0(4) into l_date.
Divide l_date by 4 and remainder should be equal to 0.
Divide l_date by 400 and remainder should also be equal to 0.
Then the dominical year will be a leap year.
Now, if l_date divided by 100 and the remainder is 0 then the year is a common year.
So depending on this populate the first date and last date from the respective internal table

Sumalatha N.

Previous month first data and previous month last date

can any body have query to get previous month first date and previous month last date.
Ex: First day of the previous week:

Last day of the previous week:
TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY, DAYOFWEEK(CURRENT_DATE) *-1,CURRENT_DATE)
can anybody have it for first day of the previous month,last day of the previous month?
Edited by: user12255470 on Apr 7, 2010 3:30 AM

Hi,
1st day of previous month :
TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY, ( DAYOFMONTH(TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH,-1,CURRENT_DATE)) * -1) + 1, TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH,-1,CURRENT_DATE))
last day of previous month :
TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY,DAYOFMONTH(TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH,-1,CURRENT_DATE)) * -1 , TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH, 1, TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH,-1,CURRENT_DATE)))

Select records by date after first of next month

Hi
I have an asp app accessing a SQL Server db and am getting
myself into a tangle over dates. I have a date field ValidFromDt
(smalldatetime) and another date field ValidUntilDt which
respectively define when a record is valid from and until. I want
to select all records valid on the first of next month - i.e. were
now in July so I want any whose 'valid from' date is now or any day
up to 1 Aug but excluding those which expire before 1 Aug and also
those whose valid from date is 2 Aug or later. Whatever month we're
in, it is the first of next month I want to select up until.
Any suggestions much appreciated.
Thanks
TP

Try...
SELECT yourTable.* FROM yourTable WHERE
CSng(Month([ValidFromDt]))>CSng(Month(Date()))
