Calculating working hours can be painful due to all the variances that they imply. This function will calculate working hours between 2 dates which might include time. There's an option to use a holidays table that will vary in each environment.

The DBCC CHECKIDENT command is used when working with identity values. I have a table with 10 rows in it that looks like this:
TravelLogID CityID StartDate EndDate 1 1 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 2 2 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 3 3 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 4 4 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 5 5 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 6 6 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 7 7 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 8 8 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 9 9 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 10 10 2025-01-11 2025-01-16The docs for DBCC CHECKIDENT say this if I run with only the table parameter: "If the current identity value for a table is less than the maximum identity value stored in the identity column, it is reset using the maximum value in the identity column. " I run this code:
DELETE dbo.TravelLog WHERE TravelLogID >= 9 GO DBCC CHECKIDENT(TravelLog, RESEED) GO INSERT dbo.TravelLog ( CityID, StartDate, EndDate ) VALUES (4, '2025-09-14', '2025-09-17') GOWhat is the identity value for the new row inserted by the insert statement above? See possible answers
