Gathering data from entire month, from a date within that month

Question

hello, i have the following code
select 'Shipped Amount' Descrip,(SELECT ROUND(sum(line_item_amount),2) from v_bi_invoiced_sales
where client='PROD' and mat_type='CAST'
and to_char(trunc(invoice_date),'YYYYMM')= TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(:P1_FROM_DATE,'MM/DD/YY'),'YYYYMM')) as Monthly,
(SELECT sum(line_item_amount) from v_bi_invoiced_sales
where client='PROD' and mat_type='CAST'
and to_char(trunc(invoice_date),'YYYY')= TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(:P1_FROM_DATE,'MM/DD/YY'),'YYYY')) as Yearly
from dualI have a different report that has only one date field, and i want to find whatever total montly shipping from whatever date is entered. Example: today is march 26th, and if this is entered, i want to find all this shipping from march 1st, 2010 through date. Another example: if Jan 6th, 2010 is entered, i want the entire month of Jan2010 shipping in the monthly shipping field displayed.
thanks

Answer 1

select sum(nvl(total_invoice_amt,0)) from a_invoice_header
where client ='PROD'
and invoice_date between :p1_date('01-'||to_char(:p1_date,'MON-RR'),'DD-MON-RR') and last_day(:p1_date)and BILLING_DOC_TYPE ='IN'my ":p1_date" is a date displayed from the date picker (use application format mask) and its source is:
SELECT TRUNC(SYSDATE) FROM DUALso it is basically the system date, i change everything to :p1_date and am still getting:
ORA-01403: no data found
Error ERR-1020 Error in PLSQL item processing (function).
OK
