Select extract(month from sysdate)+6 = returns 13 and not 1(jan)

Hi
I am using the following query to get the month 6 months from now.
select extract(month from sysdate)+6
from dualHow can I say that the month should be 6 months from todays month? It worked all these days because this month + 6 was always a valid month. Now it returns 13.

When I run the following, I get '1'. I am expecting '01'. What am I doing wrong here?
SELECT substr(lpad(to_number(to_char(ADD_MONTHS(SYSDATE, 6),'MM')),2),1,2) FROM DUAL;
I need number - so using to_number. I need to extract the month, so using to_char. If someone could help me get 2 digits for the month and simplify the query if possible - would be great.
The table has month and date stored as number (bad idea I know but thats how it is). Now for January 31, it is stored as 131. For 15 Feb it is 215. What I need is give me records where the month is 6 months from now. Something like:
to_number(substr(lpad(tbl1.monthdt, 4, '0'), 1, 2)) in
substr(lpad(to_number(to_char(ADD_MONTHS(SYSDATE, 6),'MM')),2),1,2)Message was edited by:

Get the month from a date column with the calculated column

I am trying to get the month from a date field with the help of calculated column. However I get this syntax error whenever I want to submit the formula:
Error
The formula contains a syntax error or is not supported.
the default language of our site is German and [datum, von] is a date field.

Hi,
I have created two columns
Current MM-YY
Calculated (calculation based on other columns)
Today
Date and Time
Current MM-YY is calculated value with formula as
=TEXT(Today,"mmmm")
But the output shows as December instead of May.
I have tried =TEXT([Datum, von];"mmmm") but no help.
I am trying to populated the column automatically with current month..ex: if its May the field should show May, next month it should show June an so on.
Any kind help is grateful.

To get actual age from sysdate

sir,
i did what syntax u have provided but failed to get the value.
please check my query where had done wrong.
SQL>select trunc((to_char(&sysdate, 'mm/dd/yyyy')-to_char(&birthday, 'mm/dd/yyyy'))/10000)as age
from dual;
Enter value for sysdate: '10/14/2006'
Enter value for birthday: '02/08/1980'
select trunc((to_char('10/14/2006', 'mm/dd/yyyy')-to_char('02/08/1980', 'mm/dd/yyyy'))/10000)as age
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01722: invalid number

but LAURENT SCHNEIDER is one of oracle certified master, who posted it.
does this syntax wrong????
please revert my question back.
How old are you?
I just come back from holiday, I am quite busy at the moment. Here is a tiny function to get the age
trunc((to_char(sysdate,'YYYYMMDD')-to_char(birthdate,'YYYYMMDD'))/10000)
it is much safer than add_months, because add_months do some conversion at the end of the month, and I would never accept to wait until Feb 29th, 2008 (28-2-1990 + 18*12 months) to be 18 if I were born Feb 28th, 1990.

How to get current month from filename and bulk insert from text file into table?

I set up some dynamic SQL to help my bulk copy data from a text file to a table. This works fine for files that come in every day; I get the previous day’s data, based on the file name that’s placed
in the folder. That’s why I’m using the ‘-1’. The dates will look like this: '20140131', so I'm using type 112.
declare @fullpath1 varchar(1000)
select @fullpath1 = '''\\system.local\ms\london\FTP\' + convert(varchar, getdate()-1, 112) + '_INDEXPRICES_EOM.SPC'''
declare @cmd1 nvarchar(1000)
print (@cmd1)
select @cmd1 = 'bulk insert [dbo].[SB_Monthly] from ' + @fullpath1 + ' with (FIELDTERMINATOR = ''\t'', FIRSTROW = 5, LASTROW = 675, ROWTERMINATOR=''0x0a'')'
print(@cmd1)
exec (@cmd1)
I think the syntax will be somewhat similar to this:
YEAR(date_column)=YEAR(getdate()) AND MONTH(date_column)=MONTH(getdate())
I’m not totally sure how to incorporate that into my current syntax.
Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

I tried a couple versions of this.
Declare @StartDate Date, @EndDate Date
Select @StartDate = convert(varchar, getdate()-28, 112), @EndDate = convert(varchar, getdate()-1, 112)
BEGIN
declare @fullpath1 varchar(1000)
select @fullpath1 = '''\\ms\london\FTP\' + ''' between ''' + Convert(Varchar(10), @StartDate, 101) + ''' and ''' + Convert(Varchar(10), @EndDate, 101) + '''_SP.SPC'''
declare @cmd1 nvarchar(1000)
print (@cmd1)
select @cmd1 = 'bulk insert [dbo].[SPBMI_Monthly] from ' + @fullpath1 + ' with (FIELDTERMINATOR = ''\t'', FIRSTROW = 5, LASTROW = 675, ROWTERMINATOR=''0x0a'')'
print(@cmd1)
exec (@cmd1)
END
Here’s the string:
bulk insert [dbo].[SPBMI_Monthly] from '\\ms\london\FTP\' between '02/03/2014' and '03/02/2014'_SP.SPC' with (FIELDTERMINATOR = '\t', FIRSTROW = 5, LASTROW = 675, ROWTERMINATOR='0x0a')
The error message I keep getting is:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'between'.
Msg 319, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'with'. If this statement is a common table expression, an xmlnamespaces clause or a change tracking context clause, the previous statement must be terminated with a semicolon.
I feel like I’m already pushing this thing to the limit.
Maybe this last part isn’t possible.
Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

How to get current month from BI 7

Dear Expert,
I am working on a BI 7 report and I need to restrict a key figure using the current month and previous month.
Could you help me to find out how to do so?
Thank you very much!
Arthur

if you want to make 2 diff rest key figures.
check if you have current month variable under cal.month , if not create a variable( single, not range ) for current month
and make a new selection take key fig and rest with current month.
and make a new selection and take the key fig and restrict with current month variable keep off set as -1
if you want to make only one restricted key fig which shows both current and previous then.
create a variable as range and write a exit code from sy-datum ( take month and year ) as the high value and substract one and make it as low value.
Hope this helps

Any Help is Appreciated.

Hi ram,
Per my understanding that you want to get the period date based on the month selected and the given date, right?
Could you please provide details information below to help us better understanding your requirements, thus we will be more effective to provide an solution:
What is the format of the period date you want to get, is this date in the DB and you want to filter it based on the month and the given Date?
Did the month and given date are two parameters in the report? if possible, could you please provide some sample data in the DB and also the snapshot of the report structure
I assume you want to get the period date(mm/dd/yyy) between the select month(e.g:Feb) and the given date (10/1/2014) and you should get the date between(02/01/2014-10/1/2014).
If so,and you also have two parameter "Month","EndDate"(EndDate is the given date), please reference to details information below:
You can create an new parameter "BeginDate" (Date/Time) which is the begin date of the period, you can use the expression to get the value based on the value of the month and the year value from the given date,finally hide this parameter:
Specify the available value:
Label:=Parameters!Month.Value &"/01/"& DatePart("yyyy",Parameters!EndDate.Value)
Value:=CDate(=Parameters!Month.Value &"/01/"& DatePart("yyyy",Parameters!EndDate.Value))
Specify the default Value:
Value:=CDate(=Parameters!Month.Value &"/01/"& DatePart("yyyy",Parameters!EndDate.Value))
Add filter to the dataset as below:
Preview you will get all the date in the given Period:
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.
