  I have been struggling with this for 2 days now and need some help I am trying to display hourly production rate for a machine including hours where 0 parts are made. I have been looking and the answer seems to be to do with creating a second table containing the hours and doing a left outer join on this, but I seem to be doing something wrong and cannot get it to work. The below is using a second table with idhours column which contains 24 rows with numbers 0-23 however it seems to be multiplying the count and still not returning the zero rows SELECT DATE_FORMAT(MACHINE_TIMESTART, '%H') as `Hour_of_MACHINE_TIMESTART`, COUNT(*) as `Count` FROM `production_data` left outer join hours on idhours where date(MACHINE_TIMESTART)=date('2017-03-14') GROUP BY `Hour_of_MACHINE_TIMESTART` ORDER BY `Hour_of_MACHINE_TIMESTART` ASC        If I leave out the inner join then the results are correct but not showing the zero hours.

  Hi,

  This does not look like MS SQL does it?

  Maybe the wrong forum?

  Please provide us with CREATE TABLE scripts for the 2 tables, as well as INSERT statements with sample data, and the expected results.

  The format of your query appears to ba MySQL format.

  In T-SQL, we can do it like this ...

  Create some sample data
  
CREATE TABLE #production_data (
  MACHINE_TIMESTART DATETIME NOT NULL
, SomeIntData   INT  NOT NULL
);

  SET NOCOUNT ON;

  DECLARE @SAMPLE_SIZE BIGINT = 1000;

  DECLARE
  @MinInt   INT = 10
  , @MaxInt   INT = 500
  , @StartDate  DATE = '2017-03-12'
  , @EndDate  DATE = '2017-03-15';

  WITH  T(N) AS (SELECT N FROM (VALUES (0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0)) AS X(N))
 , NUMS(N) AS (SELECT TOP(@SAMPLE_SIZE) ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY (SELECT NULL)) AS N FROM T T1,T T2,T T3,T T4,T T5)
INSERT INTO #production_data ( MACHINE_TIMESTART, SomeIntData )
SELECT
  MACHINE_TIMESTART = RAND(CHECKSUM(NEWID()))*DATEDIFF(DD,@StartDate,@EndDate)+CONVERT(DATETIME,@StartDate)
, SomeIntData   = ABS(CHECKSUM(NEWID())%(@MaxInt-@MinInt))+@MinInt
FROM NUMS AS NM
OPTION (RECOMPILE);
GO


  Get the required data
  
DECLARE @ReportDate DATETIME = '2017-03-14';

  WITH  T(N) AS (SELECT N FROM (VALUES (0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0)) AS X(N))
 , NUMS(N) AS (SELECT TOP(24) ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY (SELECT NULL)) -1 AS N FROM T T1,T T2)
SELECT NM.N AS [Hour_of_MACHINE_TIMESTART]
  , COUNT(*) AS [Count]
FROM NUMS AS NM
LEFT JOIN #production_data AS d
 ON NM.N = DATEPART(HH, d.MACHINE_TIMESTART)
AND d.MACHINE_TIMESTART >= @ReportDate
AND d.MACHINE_TIMESTART < DATEADD(DD, DATEDIFF(DD, 0, @ReportDate)+1, 0)
GROUP BY NM.N
ORDER BY NM.N;
