datetime column, Day of Week with count, how to add month/yr grouping

  • SELECT count(*)

    ,DATENAME(dw, [myDateTime]) as DOW

    FROM [myDatabase].[dbo].[myTable]

    group by DATENAME(dw, [myDateTime])

    this gets me what i need for like a total for day of week but what would i need to do in order to get like a grouping by month, DOW, Count and a grpuping of Year, DOW, count

    currently i get

    DOW, Count but would also like to get

    Month, DOW, Count and

    Year, DOW, Count

     

     

  • You didn't provide any sample data, so I can't test my code, but something like this should do what you need:

    SELECT COUNT(*) AS DayCount

    ,YEAR(myDateTime) AS Year
    ,MONTH(myDateTime) AS Month
    ,DATENAME(dw, [myDateTime]) as DOW

    FROM [myDatabase].[dbo].[myTable]

    GROUP BY DATENAME(dw, [myDateTime]), YEAR(myDateTime), MONTH(myDateTime) WITH ROLLUP

  • Works like a charm. thank you

    I have follow up question though. (we always do) i made a minor change to get the month name but basically same results.

    why am i getting the year,null and null,null records

    SELECT COUNT(*) AS DayCount

    ,YEAR(myDateTime) AS Year

    ,DATENAME(month, [myDateTime]) AS Monthly

    ,DATENAME(dw, [myDateTime]) as DOW

    FROM [myDatabase].[dbo].[myTable]

    GROUP BY DATENAME(dw, [myDateTime]), YEAR([myDateTime]),DATENAME(month, [myDateTime]) WITH ROLLUP

    935 NULL NULL Wednesday

    5384 NULL NULL NULL

  • That's from the ROLLUP.

    The one with NULL, NULL is the global dayname total, so all Mondays, Tuesdays, etc., regardless of year, month.

    The one with NULL, YEAR is supposed to be monthly total, but it doesn't look like it's working.  If you can post sample data, I'll correct the code.

  • Hmm, decent start, but I can't query against it.

    I need an actual INSERT statement, that works, like this:

    CREATE TABLE #data ( customer int NOT NULL, myDateTime datetime NULL );

    INSERT INTO #data VALUES

    (1854,'2020-06-17 11:09:04.000'),

    (262, '2020-08-14 06:20:39.000'),

    ...,

    ...,

    ...

  • Thanks for the test data!  Sorry if I seemed difficult, but I help on up to dozens qs a day, and I just don't have to do data prep for all the qs.

    See if this gives you something better:

    SELECT 
    COUNT(*) AS DayCount
    ,ISNULL(myYear, 'All') AS Year
    ,ISNULL(myMonth, 'All') AS Month
    ,DOW
    FROM dbo.MyTable

    CROSS APPLY (
    SELECT CAST(YEAR(myDateTime) AS varchar(5)) AS myYear,
    CAST(MONTH(myDateTime) AS varchar(5)) AS myMonth,
    DATENAME(dw, [myDateTime]) as DOW
    ) AS ca1

    GROUP BY DOW, myYear, myMonth WITH ROLLUP
    HAVING GROUPING(DOW) = 0
    ORDER BY DOW, myYear, myMonth

  • Personally I think I'd rather see the days as columns in the same row, i.e. a column for Monday, a column for Tuesday, etc.., with one per month and one row per year.  But that's just my personal preference, of course, so use whatever format you like/need.

  • as for the format of this data i am going to be using it for a bar/line chart.

    basically 3 different ways.

    bar chart with just sunday thru saturday and totals for each day.

    then another line chart with left axis as months of the year (no year needed) and again bottom axis as sun - sat

    next chart is left axis years and bottom axis sun - sat.

    our clients can run a particular process whenever they want and we gather that info back and mgmt was asking for when does this occur the most during the week and if it was different for various months/years

    by the way that newest query gives me all the info i need now i can just tweek it as needed. so thank you very much

  • ... and using that same datetime column i am going to do same with the time of day part grouping into 0 - 24 hour 1 hour increments by DOW, Month, Years

    basically they are looking at any trends by clients so we can best determine when we should be making any changes to our ftp server or when not to try anything.
