First Quarter (Q1) begins with April

[Anonymous]

Dear Community,

i am generating quarters on my dates and tried these solutions:

'Q'&If(Month(QuarterStart(DATE))='1',4,Div(Month(QuarterStart(DATE)),3)) as DATE_QUARTER;

or

if(len(DATE)>0, 'Q' & ceil(month(DATE)/3),ceil(month(DATE)/3)) as DATE_QUARTER;

Unfortunately the first quarter (Q1) begins all the time with April.

It should begin with January! How can i achieve this?

Please help

Hi,

this should work

'Q' & Ceil(Month(Date)/3) as Quarter

Hi Paul:

try like this:

TempCalendar:  
LOAD 
$(vDateMin) + RowNo() - 1 AS DateNumber,  
Date($(vDateMin) + RowNo() - 1) AS TempDate
AUTOGENERATE 1  
WHILE $(vDateMin)+IterNo()-1<= $(vDateMax);

MasterCalendar:  
LOAD 
'Q' & Ceil(Month(TempDate)/3) AS CalendarQuarter
RESIDENT TempCalendar ORDER BY TempDate ASC; 
DROP TABLE TempCalendar;  

hope it helps!
