Extract Time in Date Datatype

Hi Guys,
I am running the below query:
select to_char(sysdate,'hh24:mi:ss') from dual
14:39:04
select to_date(to_char(sysdate,'hh24:mi:ss'),'hh24:mi:ss') from dual
01/07/2012 14:39:40Is is possibile to just get the time part in date datatype i.e anyhow by using the second query I should get only the time part instead of whole date and time.
Cheers,
Shaz

Perhaps you want to store that data in an INTERVAL column, not a DATE.
Depending on how you plan to use it, a NUMBER might work, too (e.g., the number of minutes past midnight) or a VARCHAR2, SUCH AS '09:53:32'.
If you really needed to use a DATE for some reason, you could simply ignore the year, month and day, or always set them to some default value, such as January 1, 0001.
What is the business problem you're trying to solve? If you explain what you need to do, then someone can help you find a good way to do it.

Extract time and data with a regular expression

Hi,
I have a string with time and date in a HTML statement.
String s =">19:59, 18 August 2006</a> ";
// I hope get
String s1="19:59, 18 August 2006";or
String s =">18:37, 4 September 1998</a>"Because of different length of months, so how use regular expression to extract it.
The second question is how to write the string into a file.
filename = "A.txt";
                File file = new File(filename);
          out=new BufferedOutputStream(
                    new FileOutputStream(file));
               byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
// then what?Thank you in advance!

If "WARNING" can never occur in the input then wedon't have to worry about making the regex not match
it.
Hmm, how about fool-proof? :)Bad idea, and impractical or impossible to implement. Excessively defensive coding leads to bloated, hard to maintain code, and a greater likelihood of bugs.
Code so that you code works correctly provided the preconditions are met. It's the caller's responsibility to meet them. Don't waste time and gunk up your code trying to handle inputs that aren't allowed to occur.

Extract Time from date and Time and Need XLMOD Funtion to find the Difference between Two Time.

X6 = "1/5/15 5:16 AM" & NOW ....................difference by Only Time
not date
X6 date and Time will be changing, Its not Constant
Dim myDateTime As DateTime = X6
            Dim myDate As String = myDateTime.ToString("dd/MM/yy")
            Dim myTime As String = myDateTime.ToString("hh:mm tt")
            Dim myDateTime1 As DateTime = Now
            Dim myDate1 As String = myDateTime1.ToString("dd/MM/yy")
            Dim myTime1 As String = myDateTime1.ToString("hh:mm tt")
Need to use this function to find the Difference between Two Time. due to 12:00 AM isuue
Function XLMod(a, b)
    ' This replicates the Excel MOD function
    XLMod = a - b * Int(a / b)
End Function
Output Required
dim dd = XLMod(myTime - myTime1)
Problem is myTime & myTime1 is String Need to convert them into Time, Later use XLMOD Funtion.

Induhar,
As an addendum to this, I thought I'd add this in also: If you have two valid DateTime objects you might consider using a class which I put together a few years ago
shown on a page of my website here.
To use it, just instantiate with two DateTime objects (order doesn't matter, it'll figure it out) and you'll then have access to the public properties. For this example, I'm just showing the .ToString method:
Option Strict On
Option Explicit On
Option Infer Off
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles MyBase.Load
Dim date1 As DateTime = Now
Dim date2 As DateTime = #1/1/1970 2:35:00 PM#
Dim howOld As New Age(date1, date2)
MessageBox.Show(howOld.ToString, "Age")
Stop
End Sub
End Class
I hope that helps, if not now then maybe at some point in the future. :)
Still lost in code, just at a little higher level.
Thanx frank, can use this in Future....

Warning Messages when extracting Time Management Data using 0HR_PT_1,2

Hi,
When extracting data using 0HR_PT_1 and 0HR_PT_2 extractors it comes up with the following errors and warnings even if the records in the source system are correct.
"No Personel Work Schedule for personnel number XXXXXXX" and
"Personnel number XXXXXXX could not be locked".
Did any one of you face the same issue? If so, please do let me know how to fix these!
Thanks,
Ajay

Hi Ajay
To my knowledge this is caused because there are locks on registrations for these employees in R/3, probably because there using the system at the time of extraction.
To my knowledge the only way to handle this is to set "yellow" status to "green" this can be done automaticly on the InfoPackage.
I know this problem from two companies and i have not experienced any inconsistancies on data due to this proceeding.

Extracting time from date and adding it to another date.

Dear All,
The values of two fields in my table are as follows:
n_date n_time
12/7/2007 1/1/1970 5:50:23 PM
Both of these fields are of date data type.
How can i add the time from n_time to n_date so that n_date will reflect a date with time added?
The problem is that i want to sort on n_date and i am not getting result when two dates are having same values for n_date but different for n_time.
How can i create a new expression for sorting these values?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sameer

Hi,
Check this.
with data as
( select to_date('12/7/2007','dd/mm/yyyy') as ndate, to_date('1/1/1970 5:50:23','dd/mm/yyyy hh24:mi:ss') ntime from dual)
select ndate + (ntime - trunc(ntime)) from data
Regards

How to get a time part from Date datatype

Hi,
I would like to know how to extract the timestamp alone from DATE datatype? If my input is '27-SEP-2011 23:59:00' I need the output as 23:59:00. I am surprised to see that there are no in-built functions for this or may be I am wrong. Basically I need to remove the date part from DATE data type and get the time.Please assist.
-Thanks

There is a built-in function, TO_CHAR:
TO_CHAR (dt_col, 'HH24:MI:SS')Depending on how you plan to use the time, TRUNC is another handy built-in function:
dt_col - TRUNC (dt_col)is a NUMBER (not less than 0, but less than 1) which is suitable for many tasks, such as finding the average time.
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all tables, and also post the results you want from that data.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using.

Unable to insert date and time when using date datatype

Hi
I am hitting a bit of a problem when using the date datatype. When trying to save a row to the table where the field it throws an error ora 01830 and complains about converting the date format picture ends...etc. Now when I do the insert, I use the to_date function with the format of "dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi:ss". Of course, when I remove the time element, everything is perfect.
Checking sysdate, I noticed that the time element wasn't be displayed, and I used alter session set nls_date_format to set the date and time I want to save to the table, which worked!
Then based on advice in a previous thread to permanently fix the problem, I used alter system set nls_date_format ="dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi:ss" scope=spfile; This showed that it was altered, and I can see the setting in the em. In sqlplus, I shutdown the database, and restarted with startup mount; alter database open; and then selecting sysdate, it still shows the date as dd-mon-yy, and still no time! Checking the em, and looking up the nls_date_format the setting is still shown as "dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi:ss".
So, my question is this - what am I doing wrong? Why can't save date and time using date in Oracle 11g?????
Thanks

ThanksYou most certainly can save the time. A DATE column, by definition stores date and time. What you describe is a presentation problem, and setting nls_date_format at the system as an init parm is the weakest of all settings as it is overridden by several other locations.
without seeing the exact sql that produced the error (not just your description of what you think you were doing) it is impossible to say for sure.
However, I'd suggest you read http://edstevensdba.wordpress.com/2011/04/07/nls_date_format/

Example on extracting time data from clusters

Hi Experts,
   Please send me a sample code for time data extraction from clusters. or steps to extract time data from clusters.
Thank you.

Hi
see the sample report for time data fetching
But ime data is not fetched from Clusters, only payroll data is fetched from clusters
Time related infotypes are 2000 to 2999.

Extraction time while updating the data from update rule

Hello Friends,
Can you please tell me that why it is taking more time while updating the data from update rule to data target.
I believe that it is taking 40% of total extraction time.
Is there any specific reason for it?
Prompt reply will be appreciated.
Regards,

hi,
check if you have complex transformation in that update rules, like calculation, read from other tables, etc.
take a look 'bw loading performance and analysis' doc
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/1955ba90-0201-0010-d3aa-8b2a4ef6bbb2
and bi performance tuning knowledge center
Business Intelligence Performance Tuning [original link is broken]
there e-learning for bw performance
hope this helps.

Technical Error When Extracting Time Data

Hi SAP Experts,
I would like to seek your assistance on this case.
When business warehouse extracts HR data from SAP, they received this error message stating "Technical error when extracting time data in HR: HRMS_TIME_TIM_QUOTA 00321478".
Do you have any idea on this?
Thanks.

We don't have Business Warehouse, but it seems your system has problems with a Quota, perhaps for employee # 00321478.

Extraction of picture taken time and date

Is there anyway to extract picture taken date and time through midlet code

Hi Susmitha,
Most camera devices (including those built into phones) store metadata about the picture in the Exif header of jpeg files. This includes the time the picture was taken, shooting conditions and sometimes a GPS fix.
Drew Noakes' library lets you access that data from Java SE. I believe the principles will be the same on Java ME, but the code will probably need some porting before it works.
If your photos are taken with the same device as the one you are accessing them on, then another, simpler, option is to just read the time stamp of the photo file. (look up FileConnection.lastModified()). It will usually be the same as the recording time. But this only works if you know that the photo will not be manipulated. Saving changes to the photo will naturally modify the file's timestamp, so in that case, the Exif data is a better option.

I try again with Stevencallan's way, but not successful.

The trunc(date) to round date to the first time in the day. I think it is not reason of the error.
{code} The TRUNC (date) function returns date with the time portion of the day truncated to the unit specified by the format model fmt. The value returned is always of datatype DATE, even if you specify a different datetime datatype for date. If you omit fmt, then date is truncated to the nearest day. Please refer to "ROUND and TRUNC Date Functions" for the permitted format models to use in fmt.

I have no resolution for this problem yet.
Who had passed this case and had resolution? Please tell me your way
Thanks so much.

How to extract the historical data from R/3

hi
I am extracting data from R/3 through LO Extraction. client asked me to enhance the data source by adding field. i have enhanced the field and wrote exit to populate the data for that field.
how to extract the historical data into BI for the enhanced field. already delta load is running in BI.
regards

Hi Satish,
As per SAP Standard also the best way is to delete whole data from the cube and then load the data from set up tables as you have enhanced the data source.
After data source enhancement it is supported to load normally because you don't get any historical data for that field.
Best way is to take down time from the users, normally we do in weekends/non-business hours.
Then fill the set-up tables; if the data is of huge volume you can adopt parallel mechanism like:
1. Load set-up tables by yearly basis as a background job.
2. Load set-up tables by yearly basis with posting periods from jan 1st to 31st dec of any year basis as a background job.
This can make your self easier and faster for load of set-up tables. After filling up set-up tables. You can unlock all users as there is no worries of postings.
Then after you can load all the data into BI first into PSA and then into Cube.

Ravi Kanth.

How to compare the date value with the date datatype column?

Hi,
I am executed a query to get output for the particular date in two different database.
I got output in one db environment, but in the another environment i didnt get the output.
APP_DECISION_DATE column contains date datatype
ex:
SQL> select DECISIONED_STAGE_ID,DECISIONED_STAGE_USER_ID from naap10_application where APP_DECISION_DATE = TO_DATE('23-JAN-07',
'DD-MON-YY'); 2
DECISIONED_STAGE_ID DECISIONED_STAG
2006060106 SYSTEM
DATABASE - II
SQL> select DECISIONED_STAGE_ID,DECISIONED_STAGE_USER_ID from naap10_application where APP_DECISION_DATE=
TO_DATE('31-JAN-2007','DD-MON-RRRR') and application_id=2007010028552;
no rows selected
in the same db i got the output while i used the TO_DATE(APP_DECISION_DATE)
SQL> select DECISIONED_STAGE_ID,DECISIONED_STAGE_USER_ID from naap10_application where TO_DATE(APP_DECISION_DATE)=
TO_DATE('31-JAN-2007','DD-MON-YYYY') and application_id=2007010028552; 2
DECISIONED_STAGE_ID DECISIONED_STAG
2006060113 SYSTEM
is it necessary to use TO_DATE function while i am using the data datatype column in the WHERE CLAUSE?
Thanks in advance.
siva

Sorry & thanks sathish,
Now i got the result.
SQL> select DECISIONED_STAGE_ID,DECISIONED_STAGE_USER_ID from naap10_application where APP_DECISION_DATE BETWEEN TO_DATE ('31.01.2007 00:00:00', 'DD.MM.YYYY HH24:MI:SS') AND TO_DATE ('31.01.2007 23:59:59', 'DD.MM.YYYY HH24:MI:SS')
2 and application_id=2007010028552;
DECISIONED_STAGE_ID DECISIONED_STAG
2006060113 SYSTEM
================================
But one doubt,
When i created the column with the date datatype how it gets the time value,
And in one environment db i got the result but in another environment i dont get,
Shall i want to change any session status of date?

SQL Developer: Right-click format doesn't work right with DATE datatype

Hi All!
Currently I'm using version SQL Developer Version 3.1.05.
Got a question regarding the 'auto-format' of syntax whenever writing in the code editor.
If you take this snippet of code and drop it into a worksheet, then highlight it, right click the mouse, then select "format" it's like it fails to add the proper spacing when it runs into the DATE datatype. I looked all through the : preferences > database > sql formatter > oracle formatting > edit and couldn't find anything regarding the formatting with date types.
Am I looking in the wrong area?? Is this a known bug? Having trouble searching for this exact issue too. I LOVE the format feature, but I hate having to go to each date type and manually spacing it out to make everything look 'clean'. I'm picky I guess :P I can live with it but figured I'd ask.
type TEMP_REC
IS
record
ORG_CODE VARCHAR2(15),
PROJECT VARCHAR2(15),
WBS VARCHAR2(30),
SERIAL_NO VARCHAR2(30),
QTY_ORDERED NUMBER,
QTY_SCRAPPED NUMBER,
QTY_COMPLETE NUMBER,
BOM_ID NUMBER,
REQUEST_DATE DATE,
CREATE_DATE DATE,
REL_DATE DATE,

MODIFIED_BY VARCHAR2(30),
MODIFY_DATE DATE,
EST_HOURS NUMBER(6,2),
ACT_HOURS NUMBER(6,2),
BAD_COMMENTS VARCHAR2(1000) );

Hello,
I put 3.1.07 as you'd suggested. Seems the problem is still occuring for me... probably a user preference though ;)
Open a new worksheet and drop this in, highlight everything, right-click and choose "format". All the keywords (varchar2, number, etc) should align on themselves making it look nice. I have mine set up to line-break after a comma. (I can't get it to format properly as I type it here onto the forums, so added a bunch of spaces to try to mimic it in this view)
type TEMP_REC
IS
record
LEAD_TIME NUMBER(5,0),
SCRAP_PERCENT NUMBER,
CREATED_BY VARCHAR2(30),
MODIFIED_BY VARCHAR2(30),
OPER_SEQ VARCHAR2(6),
REF_NO VARCHAR2(2000),
COMMENTS VARCHAR2(2000),
BOM_FLAGS VARCHAR2(100),
BOM_ATTR1 VARCHAR2(30),
BOM_ATTR2 VARCHAR2(30),
BOM_ATTR3 VARCHAR2(30),
BOM_AMT1 NUMBER,
BOM_AMT2 NUMBER,
BAD_COMMENTS VARCHAR2(1000) );
Now, let's add another field in there, but this time a date/timestamp datatype. If you format it like this you will see that the keywords sort of 'reset' their position after it encounters a date/timestamp datatype. The date type doesn't align properly with the others.
type TEMP_REC
IS
record
LEAD_TIME NUMBER(5,0),
SCRAP_PERCENT NUMBER,
CREATED_BY VARCHAR2(30),
MODIFIED_BY VARCHAR2(30),

test DATE,
COMMENTS VARCHAR2(2000),
BOM_FLAGS VARCHAR2(100),
BOM_ATTR1 VARCHAR2(30),
BOM_ATTR2 VARCHAR2(30),
BOM_ATTR3 VARCHAR2(30),
BOM_AMT1 NUMBER,
BOM_AMT2 NUMBER,
BAD_COMMENTS VARCHAR2(1000) );
Might post a picture next time if that still isn't clear, though I konw folks are leary against clicking links to see screenshots. Might you know what I'm doing wrong here?
