How to calculate Monthly aggregates from daily data

  • we have detail daily data in a table about members., trying to finding how many new members (by considering ID1, ID2, ID3 columns values) monthly totals.

    so we want to find out when is the ID1, ID2, ID3 combination first exist and mark add count for monthly.

    CREATE TABLE #MYSRC

    (

    ID_1 VARCHAR(10),

    ID_2 int,

    ID_3 VARCHAR(10),

    Pay1 varchar(6),

    Pay2 varchar(6),

    Status varchar(10)

    FileDate

    )

    --- SOME MORE detail INFO about data

    --- WE HAVE ABOUT 2 YEARS WORTH OF DAILY FEEDS DATA LOADED TO ONETABLE(MYSRCHISTORY_members) last column FileDate shows what day is the file,

    --- USUALLY EACH DAY FILE HAVE ABOUT 30K RECORDS, IN WHICH IT INCLUDES OLD RECORDS AS IS, NEW ENTRIES ADDED (by considering id1,id2,id3 combination) , FOR SOME MEMBERS IT MAY CHANGE OTHER COLUMN VALUES.

    --- WE FOUND MEMBER BASED ON THREE id FIELDS, IF ID_1,2,3 CHANGES THEN IT IS CONSIDER AS NEW MEMBER.

    --- HERE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW MANY NEWMEMBERS WERE ADDED PER EACH MONTH (MONTHLY AGGREGATION)

    ---Inserts 5 records in that file, 3 old 2 new (in 2 one is just id change one is

  • I really appreciate what you tried to do with the readily consumable data but it's broken.  The table creation is broken and the table to be inserted into is not to be found anywhere.

  • Thank you for trying to help Jeff. I am sorry for this wrong table name in source. I corrected table name in my initial post code.

     

    Also here is example of output

    Create Table #Output

    ( DateCol Varchar(10),

    NewMemberscount int,    -- Total number of new members

    ENMembersCount int,   -- #mysrc table, "Status" Column (for only new members) first 2 characters is EN then count falls here

    FUCMembersCount int -- #mysrc table, "Status" Column (for only new members) first 2 characters is FU then count falls here

    )

    INSERT INTO #Output Values ('Jun-2021',0,0,0)

    INSERT INTO #Output Values ('Jul-2021',7,4,3)

    INSERT INTO #Output Values ('Aug-2021',3,2,1)

    INSERT INTO #Output Values ('Sep-2021',4,2,2)

     

    Thank you Again in advance, please help

     

    Best Regards

  • You really need to actually try to run the code you posted before you post it.  Heh... you even apparently ignored what I told you what was wrong with the code.  It's still broken.

  • The latest version of the code works just fine now.  I also took a look at your expected output.  We don't need to create any code to know that your desired output does not match the data because there's only one row in the test data with a status of "FU-25".

  • That was just one of the problems with the data v.s. what you wanted for the output.

    Anyway, here's the code you need.

    WITH cte AS
    (
    SELECT FileMonth = DATEADD(mm,DATEDIFF(mm,0,FileDate),0)
    ,Status2 = SUBSTRING(Status,1,CHARINDEX('-',CONCAT(Status,'-'))-1)
    ,InstanceNum = ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY ID_1,ID_2,ID_3 ORDER BY FileDate)
    FROM #MYSRC
    )
    SELECT DateCol = REPLACE(SUBSTRING(CONVERT(VARCHAR(20),FileMonth,106),4,20),' ','-')
    ,NewMembersCount = SUM(InstanceNum)
    ,ENMembersCount = SUM(IIF(Status2 = 'EN',InstanceNum,0))
    ,FNMembersCount = SUM(IIF(Status2 = 'FU',InstanceNum,0))
    FROM cte
    WHERE InstanceNum = 1
    GROUP BY FileMonth
    ORDER BY FileMonth

    Just remember... If you can't successfully run what you've posted, neither can we.  To be honest, if the poster doesn't care, I don't care and I normally don't say a word.  I normally try to run the consumable data code 1 time and, if it doesn't run, I simply move on.  There are obviously an exception here and there.  The only reason why yours is an exception is because you tried so hard the first time.

    Be sure.  Run your code before you post it.

  • Thank you very much Jeff. I noticed one thing if there is none changed in the latest month it is not showing any record for the month it would be great if we can provide just 0's

    Once again Thank you jeff

  • Totally Understand Jeff. I will be careful and follow your valuable guidelines for sure. and i will be extra cautious.

    Thank you & Grateful to you!

    This should do it for you.  You can get the fnTally function from a similarly named link in my signature line below.

    I also added a bit of documentation as to what each section of code does.

    --===== Get the MIN and MAX FileDate 
    DECLARE @pStartMonth DATE
    ,@pEndMonth DATE
    ;
    SELECT @pStartMonth = MIN(FileDate)
    ,@pEndMonth = MAX(FileDate)
    FROM #MYSRC
    ;
    WITH
    cteEnumerate AS
    (--==== Number the rows for the given date range by unique instance of ID_1,ID_2,ID_3
    SELECT FileMonth = DATEADD(mm,DATEDIFF(mm,0,FileDate),0)
    ,Status2 = SUBSTRING(Status,1,CHARINDEX('-',CONCAT(Status,'-'))-1)
    ,InstanceNum = ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY ID_1,ID_2,ID_3 ORDER BY FileDate)
    FROM #MYSRC
    WHERE FileDate >= DATEADD(mm,DATEDIFF(mm,0,@pStartMonth),0)
    AND FileDate < DATEADD(mm,DATEDIFF(mm,-1,@pEndMonth) ,0) -- First month after @pEndMonth
    )
    ,cteAggregate AS
    (--==== Only the rows with an InstanceNum = 1 are new. Group those by month and count them.
    SELECT DateCol = REPLACE(SUBSTRING(CONVERT(VARCHAR(20),FileMonth,106),4,20),' ','-')
    ,NewMembersCount = SUM(InstanceNum)
    ,ENMembersCount = SUM(IIF(Status2 = 'EN',InstanceNum,0))
    ,FUMembersCount = SUM(IIF(Status2 = 'FU',InstanceNum,0))
    ,FileMonth
    FROM cteEnumerate
    WHERE InstanceNum = 1
    GROUP BY FileMonth
    )
    ,cteCalendar AS
    (--==== Create a calendar of starting dates for all months in the desired date range.
    SELECT FileMonth = DATEADD(mm,t.N,DATEADD(mm,DATEDIFF(mm,0,@pStartMonth),0))
    FROM dbo.fnTally(0,DATEDIFF(mm,@pStartMonth,@pEndMonth))t
    )--==== Outer join to the calendar table so dates with no data will produce a "0".
    SELECT DateCol = cal.FileMonth
    ,NewMembersCount = ISNULL(agg.NewMembersCount,0)
    ,ENMembersCount = ISNULL(agg.ENMembersCount ,0)
    ,FUMembersCount = ISNULL(agg.FUMembersCount ,0)
    FROM cteCalendar cal
    LEFT JOIN cteAggregate agg
    ON cal.FileMonth = agg.FileMonth
    ;

    The question now is, do you know how it all works so that when someone asks you for a change or a similar report, you can do things on your own?

    Also, you'll need to spend some time figuring out a better way because this method isn't sustainable.  No matter how big the file grows, you'll always need to look at the entire file to find the first date that someone became a member.  My recommendation would be to create a list of members and their "join" date according to the FileDate.  That's likely to be a smaller list and it could also be used for other things.

  • Good Afternoon Jeff,

     

    Thank you very much for detail, it really helps me, i am working on with my data set. I think I can extend this but if there is any tweaks that i am struggling will let you know

    Once again Grateful to you Jeff

     

    Best Regards

  • Hello Jeff Good Afternoon,

     

    Can you please assist with above query, how can i see the actual data that is new for that month.

     

    for example May 2021 we have 10 new members how can i see the data for these 10 members for all columns?

     

    Thank you in advance

    ASita

     

    Thank you

    ASita
