Selecting last record in a date range

CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
I need to extract the last record for a group and display it. Normally this would simply mean selecting the max date in the SQL but...I need the last record from within a specified date range. By using the max date it won't pull out any records for a group that has a record after my date range. ie I have 2 group items and they both have a record for each day of the weekBy leaving the date open it pulls out the last record, Friday, for each item in the group.I want to set a range saying give me the last record from Mon - Wed.What I want returned is Wed's records and if there's no records on Wednesday the next last record for that itemSo If I have...Item Date RecordA MON 1A TUE 2A FRI 3B MON 4B TUE 5B WED 6B THUR 7B FRI 8I get A TUE 2 B WED 6FYI CR XI with SQL 2005

The database actually contains sample tests by date with each sample being tested multiple times over several months.I need to be able to pull a date range from the whole dataset, but I only want the last record in each date range. Samples can be tested every week or every 2 weeks and then the last record is used to show how the sample is doing over time. So you would run the report for say 3 weeks and show the last record for each sample. This wouldn't be a problem if you were only interested in the last 3 weeks data, but if you want to look at historical records you have to be able to pull from that date range. In effect the query has to work regardless of whether you ask for Mon-Fri (using my example above) or Mon-Wed or even just Mon alone. I'll give your example above a try and see how it goes

Sql query - Selecting last recorded values for each date in specified period

Hello,

23.10.2014. 23:57:12 1 1 25
So far I've managed to write a query that gives me balance for ONLY ONE date (date with highest time in whole table), but I need balance for EVERY date in specific period.
My incorrect code (didn't manage to implement "BETWEEN" for dates...):
SELECT TestTable.[Date], TestTable.[Time], TestTable.[Location], TestTable.[Box], TestTable.[Balance]
FROM TestTable
WHERE Time=(SELECT MAX(Time)
FROM TestTable
WHERE Location=1 AND Box=1 );

I wonder if you have a conflict between your date and time. If you want all records between 3PM and 3AM the next day, that will cause a conflict. That's because the first date should be "before" the second date, wthin a given day.
To troubleshoot, why don't you try taking the time part out of the SQL?

How to select last record or first record value in a formula?

Post Author: d111
CA Forum: General
I am using a query in a report that in addition to other columns, has a column of month labels like:
There are no unique identifiers or sequence fields that can be used. There is only 4 columns: the label and 3 percent columns.
Jan07Feb07Mar07Apr07etc.
I would like to show the range of months I am using in a label on the report showing the last and first records value. like: "Jan07 to Jun07".
I can not see how to use the functions maximun or minimum since it sorts the months alphabetically.
I would like to use a formula to just grab the first and last record. I can't seem to find any information on this anywhere.
Please advise and thanks.

Hmm... I suspect what you actually want is the minimum and maximum dates in the report, rather than the first and last records (even if they do happen to come out in date order). So you need to convert the text dates to real ones, and then pick the min/max values.
If so, try these:
Formula "ConvertToDate" (for details section) which converts your text field into a real date - suppress it once placed!:
//Since you have 2-digit years, this conversion assumes that all your dates are >=year 2000
numbervar the_month;if left({YourTable.YourField},3) = "Jan" then the_month:=1 elseif left({YourTable.YourField},3) = "Feb" then the_month:=2 elseif left({YourTable.YourField},3) = "Mar" then the_month:=3 elseif left({YourTable.YourField},3) = "Apr" then the_month:=4 else
//...etc etc you fill in the rest!
if left({YourTable.YourField},3) = "Dec" then the_month:=12;
date(tonumber("20"+right({YourTable.YourField},2)), the_month, 1);
Formula "Show Date Range" (for anywhere on the report) to show the min/max values of the dates;
totext (minimum({@ConvertToDate})) + " to "+totext(maximum({@ConvertToDate}))
If, however, you really just want the first and last records, and you want it at the top of your report as a title (eg: in the Report Header), then I can't see how it can be done without using a subreport that looks at the same dataset, but only displays the first and last records (using the formulas below).
Stick this in the details section, and call it "HoldRecords" and suppress it:
whileprintingrecords;stringvar first;stringvar last;if recordnumber = 1 then first:={YourTable.YourField}; //if its the first record that crystal is displaying, store it in a variableif recordnumber = count({YourTable.YourField}) then last :={YourTable.YourField} //and again, but for the last record
Now create another formula, and put it into the report footer:
evaluateafter({@HoldRecords});stringvar first" to "stringvar last //will display "Jan07 to Apr07"
NOTE: if you have the report ordered by anything, this'll throw the record numbering, and therefore the first and last records, therefore... urgh.
Hope this helps...

Getting Record Count From Date Range - IDE: PLSQL Developer

I would like to count the number of member records that fall within a specified date range based on the members effective and expiration dates and their 'elg_code'. I have posted the SQL for some sample data. What I would like to see returned is three columns of counts where the members eff_date exp_date fall within the date range specified by the SQL and have an Elg_code of ' ' (one blank space).
So, what I would like is all members with elg_code ' ' where there eff_dt and exp_dt range falls within APR 2012, MAY 2012 & JUN 2012. So, based on the sample data I posted, Mark, where his elg_code record is ' ', his eff_dt is 1/1/2011 and his exp_dt is within APR 2012 (4/30/2012). Mark's range falls within APR 2012, but not MAY or JUNE of 2012. Marty would tally for both APR and MAY since his eff_dt is before MAY 2012 and his exp is within MAY 2012. etc..
Based on the data below, the results should look like:
APR MAY JUN
4 3 2
APR should have FRANK, MARK, MARTY, MARY,
MAY should have FRANK, MARTY, MARY
JUN should have FRANK and MARY
NOAM and JEAN should not show up as their records with elg_code ' ' do not have eff_dt and exp_dt records that fall within APR-JUN 2012.
So what I tried without success as it appears I have some kind of Cartesian issue (?), is:
select count(m1.mbr_name) APR,
count(m2.mbr_name) MAY,
count(m3.mbr_name) JUN
from mbr2 m1,
mbr2 m2,
mbr2 m3
where m1.eff_dt < '01-may-2012'
and m1.exp_dt > '01-apr-2012'
and m1.elg_code = ' '
and m2.eff_dt < '01-jun-2012'
and m2.exp_dt > '01-may-2012'
and m2.elg_code = ' '
and m3.eff_dt < '01-jul-2012'
and m3.exp_dt > '01-jun-2012'
and m3.elg_code = ' '
Below is the DML
Thanks for any assistance!
create table mbr2 (mbr_name varchar(10), grpid varchar(1), eff_dt date, exp_dt date, elg_code varchar(1))

Hi,
Here's one way:
WITH     all_months     AS
     SELECT     LEVEL                         AS month_num
     ,     ADD_MONTHS (first_month, LEVEL - 1)     AS month_begin
     ,     ADD_MONTHS (first_month, LEVEL)           AS next_month_begin
     FROM     (
               SELECT TO_DATE ('04-01-2012', 'MM-DD-YYYY')     AS first_month
               ,     TO_DATE ('06-01-2012', 'MM-DD-YYYY')     AS last_month
               FROM     dual
     CONNECT BY     level     <= 1 + MONTHS_BETWEEN (last_month, first_month)
SELECT    COUNT (CASE WHEN month_num = 1 THEN 1 END)     AS month_1
,       COUNT (CASE WHEN month_num = 2 THEN 1 END)     AS month_2
,       COUNT (CASE WHEN month_num = 3 THEN 1 END)     AS month_3
FROM       all_months a
JOIN       mbr2        m ON a.month_begin       <= m.exp_dt
                        AND a.next_month_begin      > m.eff_dt
WHERE     m.elg_code      = ' '
;This assumes you know how many months will be in the output. If you want to derive that from the data, or to give the columns meaningful aliases (such as APR-2011 instead of MONTH_1), then you'll need dynamic SQL (to get separate columns for each month) or string aggregation (if you don't mind one big VARCHAR2 column, formatted to look like several columns). See {message:id=3527823}
If you don't mind modifying the query a little every time you run it, you can hard-code the number of columns and the month names. In the main query, put exactly as many lines as you need, with the alias you want at the end. That is, instead of
,       COUNT (CASE WHEN month_num = 2 THEN 1 END)     AS month_2say
,       COUNT (CASE WHEN month_num = 2 THEN 1 END)     AS may_2012I'm not sure exactly what the problem was with the query you posted. It looks like this site cut off parts of the query.
One thing that is definitely a mistake is that you're comparing DATE columns to VARCHAR2 literals. Never compare a DATE to a VARCHAR2; compare DATEs to DATEs (or compare VARCHAR2s to VARCHAR2s). So instead of
and m1.exp_dt > '01-apr-2012'you should say
and m1.exp_dt > TO_DATE ('01-apr-2012', 'dd-mon-yyyy')Thanks for posting the CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements; that's very helpful.

Hi,
Your query has mistakes as well. I corrected them.
Check this two different ways were in first you can define the period (month) you want and in second you have the option to select from the drop drown list :
SELECT T0.DocNum, T0.DocDate, T0.CardName,T0.DocTotal,T1.whsCode
FROM OINV T0 INNER JOIN INV1 T1 ON T0.DocEntry = T1.DocEntry
WHERE t0.docdate >= '2011.01.01' and t0.docdate <='2011.01.31'
OR
SELECT T0.DocNum,T0.DocDate,T0.CardName,T0.DocTotal,T1.whsCode
FROM OINV T0 INNER JOIN INV1 T1 ON T0.DocEntry = T1.DocEntry
WHERE t0.docdate >= [%1] and t0.docdate <= [%2]

Select multiple date ranges?

I am looking to select from a set of date ranges. I know that a UNION will work, but how to I get a valid set of results from multiple dates without a UNION?
example:
select date from test
where date >= '01-MAR-07 0000'
and date <= '02-MAR-07 0000'
and date >= '04-MAR-07 0000'
and date <= '08-MAR-07 0000'
order by date;
This gets zero records.
But if I use UNION:
select date from test
where date >= '01-MAR-07 0000'
and date <= '02-MAR-07 0000'
union
select datre from test
and date >= '04-MAR-07 0000'
and date <= '08-MAR-07 0000'
order by date;
It works, I get the records in no test table.
How can I structure this query to work without UNION?

true, date is taken eh?
I am still running into an issue:
Let's say I am using the following context:
select date1, name from test
where name in ('SUNDAR', 'ASUNDAR')
and date1 >= '01-MAR-07 0000'
and date1 <= '03-MAR-07 0000'
or (date1 >= '05-MAR-07 0000'
and date1 <= 07-MAR-07 0000');
My results are wrong, it would not include the select as part of the or clause.

How to display top n records(sorted by no of defects) within date range

I would like to display top n production orders(sorted by defects linked with each order) within the date range entered by the user.
Please advice.
I have 3 parameters to my report:
1. n(n is no of top records to be displayed)
2. From date

if you use the parameters in the report by placing them in the record selection it should display the records within your date range.
if {date field} in ?start to ?end then true

Date range query problem in report

Hi all,
I have created a report based on query and i want to put date range selection but query giving problem.
If i am creating select list selection then it is working fine means it will display all records on the particular date.
But what i need is that user will enter date range as creation_date1,creation_date2 and query should return all the records between these date range. i want to pass it by creating items, i created two items and passing creation_date range to display all records but not displaying and if not passing date then should take null as default and display all records

Any other way to write this?

Hi User....
Here is some date range SQL that my teams uses with some success:
For date columns that do not contain NULL values, try this (note the TRUNC, it might help with your "today" problem).
The hard coded dates allow users to leave the FROM and TO dates blank and still get sensible results (ie a blank TO date field asks for all dates in the future.
AND TRUNC(DATE_IN_DATABASE)
BETWEEN
decode( :P1_DATE_FROM,
TO_DATE('01-JAN-1900'),
:P1_DATE_FROM)
AND
decode( :P1_DATE_TO,
TO_DATE('31-DEC-3000'),:
:P1_DATE_TO)
For date columns that contain NULL values, try this (a little bit trickier):
AND nvl(TRUNC(DATE_IN_DATABASE),
decode( :P1_DATE_FROM,
decode( :P1_DATE_TO,
TO_DATE('30-DEC-3000'),
NULL),
NULL)
BETWEEN
decode( :P1_DATE_FROM,
TO_DATE('01-JAN-1900'),
:P1_DATE_FROM)
AND
decode( :P1_DATE_TO,
TO_DATE('31-DEC-3000'),
:P1_DATE_TO)
Note the 30-DEC-3000 versus 31-DEC-3000. This trick returns the NULL dates when the FROM and TO date range items are both blank.
I hope this helps.
By the way, does anyone have a better way of doing this? The requirement is given a date column in a database and a FROM and a TO date item on a page,
find all of the dates in the database between the FROM and TO dates. If the FROM date is blank, assume the user want all dates in the past (excluding NULL dates). If the TO date is blank, assume that the user wants all of the dates in the future (excluding NULL dates). If both FROM and TO dates are blank, return all of the dates in the databse (including NULL dates).
Cheers,
Patrick

Help with Date Range

Hi,
I have an Oracle form which allows users to enter :start_date_active(mandatory) and :end_date_active (can be null).
I need to check in form using SQL if there already exists a record for this date range or if there is any overlapping date ranges for the value entered and disallow user from entering that.
I have my query as follows:
SELECT (1)
FROM <table> xsv
WHERE 1=1
AND ( (:START_DATE_ACTIVE >= xsv.start_date_active) AND
(:START_DATE_ACTIVE <= nvl(xsv.end_date_active,'31-DEC-4712'))
OR
     (:END_DATE_ACTIVE >= xsv.start_date_active) AND
(:END_DATE_ACTIVE <= nvl(xsv.end_date_active,'31-DEC-4712'))
But, this incorrectly allows me to enter over lapping date ranges when the :end_date_active is null.
It should work as follows :
eg.
start_date_active end_date_active
01-Apr-2009 allowed
01-Mar-2009 10-Mar-2009 allowed
01-feb-2009 Not allowed, as it overlaps with 1st record
10-feb-2009 05-Mar-2009 Not allowed, as it overlaps with 2nd record
05-Mar-2009 20-mar-2009 Not allowed, as it overlaps with 2nd record
and so on.
How do I modify my query to deal with null end dates ?
Many Thanks
Shankar

Hi, Shankar,
Whenever you have a question, it helps to post:
(1) The version of Oracle (and any other relevant software) you're using
(2) A little sample data (just enough to show what the problem is) from all the relevant tables
(3) The results you want from that data (You posted this. It would be better if it were formatted.)
(4) Your best attempt so far (formatted) (You posted this, but since it's unformated, it's very hard to read.)
(5) The full error message (if any), including line number
Executable SQL statements (like "CREATE TABLE AS ..." or "INSERT ..." statements) are best for (2).
Formatted tabular output is okay for (3). Type these 6 characters
{code}
(small letters only, inside curly brackets) before and after formatted text, to preserve spacing.
Use different names for the parameters and the columns. For example, if the column is called start_date_active, call the corresponding parameter :p_start_date_active. It will help to keep them straight.
In this statement, if the column end_date_active IS NULL, you're treating it as an impossibly late date:
(:END_DATE_ACTIVE <= nvl(xsv.end_date_active,'31-DEC-4712'))That's good. (You should really use TO_DATE ('31-DEC-4712', 'DD-MON-YYYY'), though.)
If it's possible for the parameter :end_date_active to be NULL, you should use NVL in the same way, to equate it with some appropriate date.
The correct way to see if the range a to b (a <= b) overlaps with x to y (x <= y) is:
WHERE   b >= x
AND     a <= yIf you want an expression that's TRUE when they do not overlap, then say
WHERE   NOT (    b >= x
            AND a <= y
            )or, equivalently,
WHERE   b < x
OR      a > y

Query regarding date range

Hi I am using below query
select count(*) from
select M.Login_name
, P.IND_PROD_LOGIN_ID
, count(P.IND_PROD_LOGIN_ID) over (partition by P.IND_PROD_LOGIN_ID) cnt
from CITI_USER_2.CCS_CUSTOMER_MAST M
, CITI_USER_2.CCS_CUSTOMER_PROD P
WHERE M.CUSTOMER_ID = P.CUSTOMER_ID and P.IND_PROD_LOGIN_ID not like '508127%'
and to_char( M.CREATE_DATE , 'DD/MM/YYYY') = '16/10/2009'
) where cnt = 1
and translate(Login_name,'x0123456789','x') is null
and i got the result as 10 records but if i try to put in the date range as below
select count(*) from
select M.Login_name
, P.IND_PROD_LOGIN_ID
, count(P.IND_PROD_LOGIN_ID) over (partition by P.IND_PROD_LOGIN_ID) cnt
from CITI_USER_2.CCS_CUSTOMER_MAST M
, CITI_USER_2.CCS_CUSTOMER_PROD P
WHERE M.CUSTOMER_ID = P.CUSTOMER_ID and P.IND_PROD_LOGIN_ID not like '508127%'
and to_char( M.CREATE_DATE , 'DD/MM/YYYY') between '16/10/2009' and '17/10/2009'
) where cnt = 1
and translate(Login_name,'x0123456789','x') is null
i got the result as 653 records
But it should be 10 only and when i check the records it is giving me wrong result.
Can someone highlight how to use the range between the date, i need to check the number of records between the date range from 01/05/2009 to 01/10/2009

this is all happening because of
to_char( M.CREATE_DATE , 'DD/MM/YYYY') between '16/10/2009' and '17/10/2009'in your second query...
that is doing a string comparision not date comparision...
in string comparision
check this example...
select * from dual where '17/10/2009' > '16/10/2010'which will result a record but you might also observe that 17 th in 2009 is less than 16th of 2010. this is because here string comparision is ocurring.
you need to change it as....
M.CREATE_DATE between to_date('16/10/2009','DD/MM/YYYY') and to_date('17/10/2009','DD/MM/YYYY')so your query becomes...
select count(*) from
select M.Login_name
, P.IND_PROD_LOGIN_ID
, count(P.IND_PROD_LOGIN_ID) over (partition by P.IND_PROD_LOGIN_ID) cnt
from CITI_USER_2.CCS_CUSTOMER_MAST M
, CITI_USER_2.CCS_CUSTOMER_PROD P
WHERE M.CUSTOMER_ID = P.CUSTOMER_ID and P.IND_PROD_LOGIN_ID not like '508127%'
and M.CREATE_DATE between to_date('16/10/2009','DD/MM/YYYY') and to_date('17/10/2009','DD/MM/YYYY')
) where cnt = 1
and translate(Login_name,'x0123456789','x') is null check your answer and get back.

Check a number range with date range.

i have table test which is having column
Start Range
End Range
Start Date
End date
how can i check start range and end range does not exists b/w existing record also with date range of this record.
end date can be blank also.

Hi,
This query should be fine:
SELECT DISTINCT t2.gs_i_id, pms_comp, t2.gs_i_code,
                TO_CHAR
                   (MIN (pms_perf_d) OVER (PARTITION BY pms_comp, pms_i),
                    'yyyymmdd'
                   ) gs_wt_fr,
                TO_CHAR
                   (MAX (pms_perf_d) OVER (PARTITION BY pms_comp, pms_i) - 1,
                    'yyyymmdd'
                   ) gs_wt_to,
                pms_wt / 100 gs_i_calc
           FROM dev_wt t1, dev_map t2
          WHERE t2.gs_code = t1.pms_iREM Same remark as odie: should be "2231" instead ...
