Hi everyone, I need some help with creating a report that calculates the average turnaround time in days that it takes for units to return from trips destined to a location.
The database that I am working with lists a trip each time a unit is dispatched to a destination, and then another trip is created for the units return. In the example below I am trying to calculate the number of days that it takes for a unit to return to Vancouver by calculating the difference between the departure date from Vancouver and the arrival date back into Vancouver. I then need to calculate the average number of days that it takes for a unit to return from a trip. See sample data below.
UNIT -- TRIP -- START LOCATION --START DATE--FIN LOCATION--FIN DATE
================================================== =======
U12 ----001 --- VANCOUVER -------FEB 10 ------ ONTARIO ----- FEB 15
U10 ----002 --- VANCOUVER -------FEB 13 ------ ONTARIO ----- FEB 18
U12 ----003 --- ONTARIO ----------MARCH 13 --- VANCOUVER -- MARCH 18
U10 ----004 --- ONTARIO ----------MARCH 1 ---- VANCOUVER ---MARCH 6
Unit U12 took 36 days to return back to Vancouver
Unit U10 took 21 days to return back to Vancouver
Therefore based on the two trips it takes an average of aproximately 28.5 days for a unit to return from trips destined to Ontario.
Hi all, I have a question about the datediff function. Basically I have two tables. An Export Table with two columns DateSubmitted and PublishDate. So I need the difference between those dates without the weekends. To achive this I created a Calendar table with a column for the date and another one for day of the week to know if the date was monday or saturday etc.
Here is where I have the problem
My Sql query without the calendar table is like this:
I made a code to in SQL reporting services for the reports of our company regarding the new applicants. Now I need to get the average datedifference in each phase from all applicants who entered Initial/Data Collection. Example, "Initial/Data collection"PHASE will have an average of 60 minutes to be finished, averaged from all 200 applicants, and "Screening"PHASE 240 minutes to be finished, averaged from 100 applicants.
All applicants must go through stage 1 before he can go to stage 2 and so on.
The date diff will be obtained from the "createdon" column subtracted to the last "modifiedon" column in each phase.
I need to insert that code to the existing code that I have if it is possible(which my boss prefer); or either if i can manipulate it in SQL reporting services in visual studio 2005.
Here is a sample output that I have.Each phase has a different color.
Here is the code that i used SELECT subject, regardingobjectidname, createdon, modifiedon, stat, phase, initial, (CASEphaseWHEN 'Initial/Data Collection' THEN 1 WHEN 'Screening' THEN 2 WHEN 'Assesment and Selection' THEN 3 WHEN 'Placement' THEN 4 END) AS Phasesort FROM( SELECT subject, regardingobjectidname, createdon, modifiedon, stat, initial, (CASEstatWHEN 'Application Recieved' THEN 'Initial/Data Collection' WHEN 'For Screening' THEN 'Screening' WHEN 'Shortlisted' THEN 'Screening' WHEN 'For Assesment' THEN 'Assesment and Selection' WHEN 'For Assesment' THEN 'Assesment and Selection' WHEN 'Passed Initial Interview' THEN 'Assesment and Selection' WHEN 'Passed Profiles Assesment' THEN 'Assesment and Selection' WHEN 'Passed Technical Exam' THEN 'Assesment and Selection' WHEN 'For Placement' THEN 'Placement' END) AS phase FROM( SELECT subject, regardingobjectidname, createdon, modifiedon, initial, (CASEinitialWHEN '1 stage' THEN 'Application Recieved' WHEN '2 stage' THEN 'Application Recieved' WHEN '3 stage' THEN 'For Screening' WHEN '4 stage' THEN 'Shortlisted' WHEN '5 stage' THEN 'For Assesment' WHEN '6 stage' THEN 'Passed Initial Interview' WHEN '7 stage' THEN 'Passed Profiles Assesment' WHEN '8 stage' THEN 'Passed Technical Exam' WHEN '9 stage' THEN 'For Placement' WHEN '10 stage' THEN 'For Placement' END) AS stat FROM( SELECT subject, regardingobjectidname, createdon, modifiedon, (CASEsubjectWHEN N'application received' THEN '1 stage' WHEN 'process application' THEN '2 stage' WHEN 'screen application' THEN '3 stage' WHEN 'Phone interview' THEN '4 stage' WHEN N'initial interview' THEN '5 stage' WHEN 'profiles assessment' THEN '6 stage' WHEN 'technical exam and interview' THEN '7 stage' WHEN 'background and reference check' THEN '8 stage' WHEN 'Job Offer' THEN '9 stage' WHEN 'Contract Signing' THEN '10 stage' END) AS initial FROM(SELECT subject, regardingobjectidname, createdon, modifiedon FROMFilteredTask WHERE (subject IN ('application received', 'process application', 'screen application', 'initial interview', 'profiles assessment', 'technical exam and interview', 'background and reference check', 'job offer', 'contract signing')) UNION ALL SELECT subject, regardingobjectidname, createdon, modifiedon FROMFilteredPhoneCall WHEREsubject = 'phone interview' ) AS Orion ) AS Initials ) AS Phases ) AS Stats ORDER BY regardingobjectidname, initial
I appreciate your help.
Thanks a lot.

Hello~, The table has columns like this. ________________________________ time smalldatetime value1 int value2 int ----------------------------------------------------------
for example, .... '2006-11-16 12:00:00',100,200 '2006-11-16 13:00:00',110,210 '2006-11-16 14:00:00',120,220 ....
The record is inserted at every hour.
I want get daily,monthly,yearly average and display the result ordered by time.
I am trying to figure out how to calculate the average time between phone calls for a user. The initial requirement is to calcualte this on all calls for an entire month but I would guess that would lead to other periods as well, such as daily, weekly, etc. One hurdle is what to do when going from one day to the next. I could possibly just week out any times between calls that are greater than a certain amount of time to address that. Any way, here is a small sample of what I'll be dealing with. Any ideas on how to approach this or get it to work would be greatly appreciated.
I am running into a barrier and need to understand the average length of time that a fully optimized data cube should take to process.
We are currently running an average of 15 to 20 minutes per cube, with average of 2000 aggregations, 25% performance increase, and approximately 2 million rows, with around 40 dimensions and 30 measures.
I personally think this is a pretty good time to process. However, I am being challenged to reduce this time frame. In theroy I can't possibly see it getting below where we currently are. SO I am reaching out to the group of guru's...
What is your average length of time to process your Data Cubes? Please respond to me at ken.kolk@medcor.com I would greatly appreciate it and need the averages from the field.
So some have just 1 test and some have multiple. I have a count for each. What I need to do is use that count and get an average time between each test per student.
Calculation of an average using DAX' AVERAGE and AVERAGEX.This is the manual calculation in DW, using SQL.In the tabular project (we're i've noticed that these 4 %'s are in itself strange), in a 1st moment i've noticed that i would have to divide by 100 to get the same values as in the DW, so i've used AVERAGEX:
The results were, respectively: 701,68; 2120,60...; -669,441; and finally **-694,74** for Avg_FMPdollar.i can't understand the difference to SQL calculation, since calculations are similar to the other ones. After that i've tried:
test:=SUM([_FMPdollar])/countrows('Fct Sales') AND the value was EQUAL to SQL: -672,17 test2:=AVERAGE('Fct Sales'[_Frontend Margin Percent ACY]), and here, without dividing by 100 in the end, -696,74...
So, AVERAGE and AVERAGEX have a diferent behaviour from the SUM divided by COUNTROWS, and even more strange, test2 doesn't need the division by 100 to be similar to AVERAGEX result.
I even calculated the number of blanks and number of zeros on each column, could it be a difference on the denominator (so, a division by a diferente number of rows), but they are equal on each row.
I have a temp_max column and a temp_min column with data for every day for 60 years. I want the average temp for jan of yr1 through yr60, averaged... I.E. the avg temp for Jan of yr1 is 20 and the avg temp for Jan of yr2 is 30, then the overall average is 25. The complexity lies within calculating a daily average by month, THEN a yearly average by month, in one statement. ?confused?
Here's the original query. accept platformId CHAR format a6 prompt 'Enter Platform Id (capital letters in ''): '
SELECT name, country_cd from weather_station where platformId=&&platformId;
SELECT to_char(datetime,'MM') as MO, max(temp_max) as max_T, round(avg((temp_max+temp_min)/2),2) as avg_T, min(temp_min) as min_temTp, count(unique(to_char(datetime, 'yyyy'))) as TOTAL_YEARS FROM daily WHERE platformId=&&platformId and platformId = platformId and platformId = platformId and datetime=datetime and datetime=datetime GROUP BY to_char(datetime,'MM') ORDER BY to_char(datetime,'MM');
If I wanted to get everyone DOB who is over 18 how would I do that? I am currently trying something like this, but no luck...
Declare @todays_date datetime
Select from person CASE WHEN dateadd(year, datediff (year, Date_Of_Birth, @Todays_Date), Date_Of_Birth) > @Todays_Date -- Date of Birth check THEN datediff (year, Date_Of_Birth, @Todays_Date) - 1 ELSE datediff (year, Date_Of_Birth, @Todays_Date) END >= 18
I'm using a datediff(mi, start, stop) to get the duration of an operation. i want it displayed in HH:MM format. can anyone help me w/ a way to do that????
SELECT weight FROM progress WHERE dateInput = (SELECT MAX(dateInput) FROM progress) AND memberID = 1
The problem is that the MAX dateInput doesn't belongs to memberID 1. It belongs to memberID 2. What I want is that I wanna choose the MAX Date of memberID 1. I thought of maybe using datadiff function. But I don't know how to make the datediff statement. Maybe I can write the datediff statement whereby the least datediff between the dateInput and getdate() will be the row I want. I really appreciate the person that helps me this problem... Thanks 1st of all!
I am trying to select records from whatever the current date would be and 12 months before whatever the current date is. How would I go about doing this. The table that I am trying to do this with has a year column and a month column.
I was playing with the date diff function, but I can only get dates from the specified date range. I need it to be where if I run it tomorrow, it will get that day and everything within the last 12 months.
Hi there i am using the datediff funtion but it does not seem to be inclusive of the two dates eg SELECT DATEDIFF(day, s_Date, e_date) AS NumberOfDays,* FROM weekendtest
i know i could do SELECT DATEDIFF(day, s_Date, e_date)+1 AS NumberOfDays,* FROM weekendtest
but i was just wondering if there some other function i should use that would be more appropriate
Hi I've a problem!!! i want to use datediff thats no problem. But the first parameter has to be parameterised. What datatype do i declare it as. i declare it as varchar it returns me an error : Invalid parameter 1 specified for datediff.
i'm doing this in a stored procedure.
Is there a way out or do i've to use the good old 'IF' or 'Case' ?
Hi, I have a Table Where I have Two Date columns and I want to find the Differnce in the 3rd column.ie DateReceived - AsOnDate = NoofDays.I tried this code SELECT SRNO,CONVERT (VARCHAR,AsonDate,102)as ASONDATE,CONVERT(VARCHAR, DateReceived, 102) AS DateReceived,CONVERT(VARCHAR, DateAcknowledged, 102) AS NoofDays, sum(CASE WHEN DATEDIFF(DAY, DATERECEIVED,ASONDATE, GETDATE()) FROM Details
Hi, I am facing problem rite now.. I want to calculate the date different minutes between 23:00:00 and 01:00:00. My code : datediff(Minute,'01:00:00','23:00:00') The result is 1320 minutes. (22 hours)... But, the result that I want is 120 minutes (2 hours).... Can anybody help ??? Thanks in advance...
I'm trying to use the same select statement I used in classic SQL, but it isn't working. I get a "The server tag is not well formed." error. I'm trying to return all the records where the date in a particular field are over 60 days old. My select statement is: "SELECT [ReNewAd], [Male or Female], [File2], [PHOTO], [First Name], [Last Name], [City], [State], [NewAd] FROM Members Where ('NewAd' IS NOT NULL AND (DateDiff('d', [NewAd], '" & Now() & "') <= 60)) order by [NewAd] Desc" I've been looking through the datediff posts, but I'm not making any sense of what I'm reading. Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? Thanks, Diane

Hi,I'm using the datediff function to display the ages of the users in my database. However the age rounds up once they are 35.5 etc...I could create another function which works similar to the DateDiff function, but use math.floor to always round down, but I need to use this function in a SQL statement WHERE clause. Is there any way around this?Thanks,Curt.
This is a sql question, so I'm hoping someone can give me some direction. I need to query a table and return all rows where the individual is >= 18 years of age. It should involve simply subtracting the date of birth from the current date. I thought the answer would be so simple: select * from table where datediff(yy,dob,getdate()) >= 18 Unfortunately, the results are inconsistent. The DATEDIFF function, it appears, will not show correct results down to the month/day level. I tried posting this on a sql server forum, but the recommendations I received involved coding some gigantic function. It seems that there ought to be a simple 'WHERE' clause which could solve this. If someone knows of a silver bullet, I would surely appreciate your advice. Thank you.
I'm trying to include a DATEDIFF compare in my Where clause, but it seems to ignore the comparison I'm trying to invoke, and just returns all rows. When I display the result of the DATEDIFF command, it looks good, but I can't seem to have it incorporated in my Where clause. The following is my code - select [Pkg ID], [Elm (s)], [Type Name (s)], [End Exec Date], [End Exec Time] from pkgactions WHERE (8 > DateDiff(year, [End Exec Date], GetDate() )) order by [pkg id]
I have two fields in one of my database table. They are date fields, one for the start and the other for the end of the "problem solving". What I want to do is to show the concrete elapsed time between the two.
My first problem is that I'm not able to show hour AND minutes. I wrote this for instance: SELECT DATEDIFF(hour, fld_date_debut, fld_date_fin) As elapsed_time I tried HH:mm instead of hour, but it is not working.
My second problem is that I can have more than one start and end hour for the same "problem solving". In the database it's like:
start hour: 10:00 End hour: 11:00 Number of the problem: 1 start hour: 13:00 End hour: 16:00 Number of the problem: 1
So I would like to add these to my elapsed time. I want (11:00 - 10:00) + (16:00 - 13:00)...but how can i do this in my SQL query ?
Im currently using the DateDiff function to filter my DateTime columns but am finding it somewhat troublesome. Currently I am having to write the same select statement 3 times if I want to filter by month, year or all (ignoring dates).
To find @PurchaseTotal for the year, I have to write the following:
SELECT @PurchaseTotal = Sum(PurchaseTotal) FROM _Expenses WHERE DateDiff(yyyy, DateOf, @IntervalDate) = @Interval
To find @PurchaseTotal for a month, I have to write the following:
SELECT @PurchaseTotal = Sum(PurchaseTotal) FROM _Expenses WHERE DateDiff(mm, DateOf, @IntervalDate) = @Interval
To find @PurchaseTotal for all the records, I have to write the following:
SELECT @PurchaseTotal = Sum(PurchaseTotal) FROM _Expenses
Error says something like "incorrect parameter 1 for DateDiff."
It seems you have to write a different select statement for month, day and year. Also If you want a total from all the records you have to write yet another select statement.
Does anyone know of a DateTime function that allows parameters to specify for month, day and Year? Also does anyone know of a DateTime function that works like the COALESCE function to where you can send it a NULL value and give you all the records?
I just discover the result for my query that had use the function dateDiff seems to be in-correct, no matter what's the date, the dateDiff always return a zero. Am I using it in-correctly? select DateDiff(mm,11/1/2004, 12/31/2005) SELECT component_id, component_description,SUM(CASE DateDiff(mm,date_complete,'12/31/2004')WHEN 2 THEN component_qty ELSE 0 END) AS mm1,SUM(CASE DateDiff(mm,date_complete,'12/31/2004')WHEN 1 THEN component_qty ELSE 0 END) AS mm2,SUM(CASE DateDiff(mm,date_complete,'12/31/2004')WHEN 0 THEN component_qty ELSE 0 END) AS mm3,sum(component_qty) as totalFROM view_jobcomponent WHERE date_complete between '10/1/2004' and '12/31/2004' GROUP BY component_id, component_descriptionorder by component_id, component_description
