SQL WHERE Date >Today()

Hello!

I have SQL table and column Date.

Is it possible to make WHERE limited selection in order to get only records with Data for last tree month..... like

InMonth(Date,Today(),-3)

If you are doing the comparison on the SQL Where clause, you can use the SQL syntax supported by your server - for example, in SQL Server

     SQL SELECT *

     From dbo.MyData

     Where Date >= DateAdd(m, -3, GetDate());

MySQL, Oracle etc will have different syntax - but this avoids date formatting issues.

Create a Variable as below

Let vTodayMinus3Month = AddMonths(Today(),-3);

Now load as per

TableName:

Load * From TableName Where Date >= '$(vTodayMinus3Month)';

Hi Ruslans,

You can do these using variables,

LET vStartDate= Monthstart(Addmonths(Today(),-3)) 

so by these variable it will consider like for today it will take then it will return , 01/10/2015

after that you can use that variable inside SQL statement by,

Last3MDATA:

LAOD *;

SQL SELECT *

From dbo.MyData

Where Date >= $(vStartdate);

Note:Please check the date format in every area(DD/MM/YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD)

Regards,

Koushik
