Hello,

I am trying to load data from previous month end.  I am trying to use a variable so that it can run automatically without changing the date.

This does not seem lo work.

LET vPreviousMonth = addmonths(max(Today()),-1);

SELECT $(vPreviousMonth);

LOAD .... 
   
SQL SELECT *
FROM ...File
WHERE "posting date" <= $(PreviousMonth);

[CELAMBARASAN]

LET vPreviousMonth = Date(addmonths(max(Today()),-1), 'DD/MM/YYYY';

LOAD .... 
   
SQL SELECT *
FROM ...File
WHERE "posting date" <= '$(PreviousMonth)';

I am still getting a syntax error when trying to load.

Hi,

If you need monthend then use:

LET vPreviousMonth = monthend(addmonths(Today(),-1));

[MK_QSL]

Try this...

LET vPreviousMonth = Monthend(Today(),-1)

Your load statement

SQL Select * from ......

WHERE DATE(YourDate),'DD/MM/YYYY') <= Date('$(vPreviousMonth)', 'DD/MM/YYYY');

I'd use this:

date(monthstart(Today())-1)

[Clever_Anjos]

LET vPreviousMonth = date(monthend(addmonths(Today(),-1)),'YYYY-MM-DD');

SELECT $(vPreviousMonth);

LOAD .... 
   
SQL SELECT *
FROM ...File
WHERE "posting date" <= '$(PreviousMonth)';
