How to calculate the days with a date field

I need to make a query that shows the number of flown days at the end of the month for the whole fleet, given a date that represents one day within that month.
I would appreciate all the help I can get
thanks in advance

Hi,
I am not sure if I interpreted your question correctly, but are you looking for counting for number of days between two days?
If yes, see if the following example query helps you.
SQL>select to_date('30-Jun-2003') - to_date('30-May-2003') from dual
- this returns 31.
If not, could you please give more details of your requirement with an example?

Early Registration Fee is $10.00 if posted by February 25, 2008
Late Registration Fee is $20.00 if posted by March 17, 2008
It seems simple, but, when you get to be 71 years old, it seems difficult. Any help will be appreciated.

How to calculate AGE from two different date fields

hi
I need to calculate AGE from two different date fields.
Can some help me how to do, when i try to do substraction formula it is showing error.
Thank You

Hi
Both fields are in date format only, i need to calculate no . of days between two different dates
Thanks
ManuThe reason for the question about the format of the column is because the simplest solution only works on DATE columns. Others have mentioned this here, but if you want the difference between two date fields, you can use this formula:
TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY, date_column1, date_column2)
The above being said, you still didn't tell me what you did, or what error message you received. So again, if the above formula didn't work, what did you do? Where did you put the formula? What was the exact syntax you used? What was the error message you got?
Please don't make us work more than we need to. Answer all the questions in your next post. Thanks.

How can I to calculate the number of days between this date (last movement), till today date (system date).
I need to show:

Thanks in advance,

Hi Parth,
Here we are using the version 7.0 and SP 10, I'm afraid I could not understand you. I Can't find the function DATE_DIFF (Where is it?)
I'm using the formula and it doesn't work. Coud you see the result is:
last movement date     Today date        result
02.04.2007                  20.070.625       19.337.856
18.05.2007                  20.070.625       19.337.810
the "today date" is from customer exit and the result is a strange number to me.
Could you help me?

How to create a group with multiple data fields

Post Author: RichS
CA Forum: Formula
Using CR XI. Using CSV input from ODBC text driver. No problems here.
There are 3 fields that I want the same group by action. Is this possible?)
If any one of these 3 fields change I want some header information and column fieldnames to display. The header information I only want displayed on the first page (on the change) and the column fieldnames to display on every page. I have played around with things like "InRepeatedGroupHeader" and "report group header on each page". I am not getting all the results that I am looking for though.
I want report to look like:
Page header stuff (to display on every page) This data consists of some fields that will have static data and will display on every page. And it consists of 3 non-static fields that I want to group on.
Group header stuff that I only want displayed on the first page on a change from one of the 3 fields mentioned above.
Column headings that I want displayed on every page.
Details data
Group footer stuff (details not important for this)
I get the expected output (column headings displayed on every page, and group header stuff display on the first page on each group change) with one group field. But I want the group change to happen for all 3 fields.
It seems simple but I can't find a way to create a "group" so if "field1 or field2 or field3" change, I get the same "group by" action. I just need to know how to get the expected action.
I expect that I might have some terms mixed up and/or some important information that would aide you in helping me. If that is the case please re-post and I will add any missing or mis-stated information.
Thanks,

I am slightly confused, but perhaps you can create a formula
Then group on the formula. If this is not what you want, could you post some sample data, with the desired results.

How to Add 20 days to a date field

Dear All,
I am struck badly on Date manipulation. If somebody has any ideaz on this let me know.
I want to add some amount of days to system date and then compare it with another date.

Hi capo9999!
There are two class to easy and fast manipulate date variables: Calendar and GregorianCalendar.
You must to read documentation about because there are many details to consider. Date variables has a special structure and do not confuse with "Date class" wich can be used with Calendar and GregorianCalendar.
An example:
Calendar today = new GregorianCalendar(); or
Calendar now = Calendar.getInstance();
create a new date structure with current date and to manipulate these variables there are methods to add an amount to components. Another example:
now.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, numDays);
It's amazing to work this way.
Best Regards.

How to calculate the size of a Text Field?

Is there a way to calculate the number of characters allow in a Text Field? If a uer type over this number of characters a popup window will appear telling the user that he/she has too much texts. Of course I could use the Limit Length, but I have to manually put texts into this text field and count them. If the Limit Lenth number is too small, the texts does not fill the whole text field. If the number is too big then the texts does not get printed.

There would be no easy way to do this. You'd need to do some pretty fancy calculations, it would all depend on the size of the field, what font is used, the font size, whether it's been bolded, underlined, italicized, etc etc.
What are you trying to accomplish? Make it so that the user can type in the text field until it fills and then have it stop without scroll bars coming up to allow him to keep typing?

How to calculate the difference between two dates?

Hello,
I would like to write some code which figures out how many days are between the Date_of_change (which is of datatype DATE, length 7 and of format DD-MON-YY) and the current date today. Then if the difference between Date_of_change and the current date is greater that 30 days for example then I would like to delete that record from the database.

Calculate the Difference Between two dates excluding weekends and Holidays

Hi,
We need to calculate the difference between the two dates by excluding the Local public holidays (It is global and varies across countries) and weekends should not be included in calculation for a business day in OBIEE.
We have two dates: Open date and close date when ever close date is null we are calculating age based on taking the current timestamp and need to exclude the weekends and Holidays when ever the close date is null.
Ex:
Col1 col2 Total
11/9/2010 2:46:38 PM Null 13
11/2/2010 8:06:26 PM 11/3/2010 5:37:03 PM 1
(In the Total we shouldn't include the weekends,holidays)
Please let me know how to calculate the difference between two dates by excluding the weekends and holidays.
