Dates
Syntax#
- EOMONTH (start_date [, month_to_add ] )
Remarks#
as per https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187819.aspx, DateTimes are only precise to 3ms.
Rounding of datetime Fractional Second Precision datetime values are rounded to increments of .000, .003, or .007 seconds, as shown in the following table.
| User-specified value | System stored value | | ------ | ------ | ------ | | 01/01/98 23:59:59.999 | 1998-01-02 00:00:00.000 | | ------ | ------ | ------ | | 01/01/98 23:59:59.995 | 1998-01-01 23:59:59.997 | | 01/01/98 23:59:59.996 | | | 01/01/98 23:59:59.997 | | | 01/01/98 23:59:59.998 | | | ------ | ------ | ------ | | 01/01/98 23:59:59.992 | 1998-01-01 23:59:59.993 | | 01/01/98 23:59:59.993 | | | 01/01/98 23:59:59.994 | | | ------ | ------ | ------ | | 01/01/98 23:59:59.990 | 1998-01-01 23:59:59.990 | | 01/01/98 23:59:59.991 | | | ------ | ------ | ------ |
If more precision is required, time, datetime2 or datetimeoffset should be used.
Date & Time Formatting using CONVERT
You can use the CONVERT function to cast a datetime datatype to a formatted string.
SELECT GETDATE() AS [Result] -- 2016-07-21 07:56:10.927You can also use some built-in codes to convert into a specific format. Here are the options built into SQL Server:
DECLARE @convert_code INT = 100 -- See Table Below
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(30), GETDATE(), @convert_code) AS [Result]| @convert_code | Result |
|---|---|
| 100 | “Jul 21 2016 7:56AM” |
| 101 | “07/21/2016” |
| 102 | “2016.07.21” |
| 103 | “21/07/2016” |
| 104 | “21.07.2016” |
| 105 | “21-07-2016” |
| 106 | “21 Jul 2016” |
| 107 | “Jul 21, 2016” |
| 108 | “07:57:05” |
| 109 | “Jul 21 2016 7:57:45:707AM” |

You can utilize the new function: FORMAT().
Using this you can transform your DATETIME fields to your own custom VARCHAR format.
Example
DECLARE @Date DATETIME = '2016-09-05 00:01:02.333'
SELECT FORMAT(@Date, N'dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy hh:mm:ss tt')Monday, September 05, 2016 12:01:02 AM
Arguments
Given the DATETIME being formatted is 2016-09-05 00:01:02.333, the following chart shows what their output would be for the provided argument.
| Argument | Output |
|---|---|
| yyyy | 2016 |
| yy | 16 |
| MMMM | September |
| MM | 09 |
| M | 9 |
| dddd | Monday |
| ddd | Mon |
| dd | 05 |
| d | 5 |
| HH | 00 |
| H | 0 |
| hh | 12 |
| h | 12 |
| mm | 01 |
| m | 1 |
| ss | 02 |
| s | 2 |
| tt | AM |
| t | A |
| fff | 333 |
| ff | 33 |
| f | 3 |
You can also supply a single argument to the FORMAT() function to generate a pre-formatted output:
DECLARE @Date DATETIME = '2016-09-05 00:01:02.333'
SELECT FORMAT(@Date, N'U')Monday, September 05, 2016 4:01:02 AM
| Single Argument | Output |
|---|---|
| D | Monday, September 05, 2016 |
| d | 9/5/2016 |
| F | Monday, September 05, 2016 12:01:02 AM |
| f | Monday, September 05, 2016 12:01 AM |
| G | 9/5/2016 12:01:02 AM |
| g | 9/5/2016 12:01 AM |
| M | September 05 |
| O | 2016-09-05T00:01:02.3330000 |
| R | Mon, 05 Sep 2016 00:01:02 GMT |
| s | 2016-09-05T00:01:02 |
| T | 12:01:02 AM |
| t | 12:01 AM |
| U | Monday, September 05, 2016 4:01:02 AM |
| u | 2016-09-05 00:01:02Z |
| Y | September, 2016 |
Note: The above list is using the en-US culture. A different culture can be specified for the FORMAT() via the third parameter:
DECLARE @Date DATETIME = '2016-09-05 00:01:02.333'
SELECT FORMAT(@Date, N'U', 'zh-cn')2016年9月5日 4:01:02
Get the current DateTime
The built-in functions GETDATE and GETUTCDATE each return the current date and time without a time zone offset.
The return value of both functions is based on the operating system of the computer on which the instance of SQL Server is running.
The return value of GETDATE represents the current time in the same timezone as operating system. The return value of GETUTCDATE represents the current UTC time.
Either function can be included in the SELECT clause of a query or as part of boolean expression in the WHERE clause.
Examples:
-- example query that selects the current time in both the server time zone and UTC
SELECT GETDATE() as SystemDateTime, GETUTCDATE() as UTCDateTime
-- example query records with EventDate in the past.
SELECT * FROM MyEvents WHERE EventDate < GETDATE() There are a few other built-in functions that return different variations of the current date-time:
SELECT
GETDATE(), --2016-07-21 14:27:37.447
GETUTCDATE(), --2016-07-21 18:27:37.447
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, --2016-07-21 14:27:37.447
SYSDATETIME(), --2016-07-21 14:27:37.4485768
SYSDATETIMEOFFSET(),--2016-07-21 14:27:37.4485768 -04:00
SYSUTCDATETIME() --2016-07-21 18:27:37.4485768DATEADD for adding and subtracting time periods
General syntax:
DATEADD (datepart , number , datetime_expr) To add a time measure, the number must be positive. To subtract a time measure, the number must be negative.
Examples
DECLARE @now DATETIME2 = GETDATE();
SELECT @now; --2016-07-21 14:39:46.4170000
SELECT DATEADD(YEAR, 1, @now) --2017-07-21 14:39:46.4170000
SELECT DATEADD(QUARTER, 1, @now) --2016-10-21 14:39:46.4170000
SELECT DATEADD(WEEK, 1, @now) --2016-07-28 14:39:46.4170000
SELECT DATEADD(DAY, 1, @now) --2016-07-22 14:39:46.4170000
SELECT DATEADD(HOUR, 1, @now) --2016-07-21 15:39:46.4170000
SELECT DATEADD(MINUTE, 1, @now) --2016-07-21 14:40:46.4170000
SELECT DATEADD(SECOND, 1, @now) --2016-07-21 14:39:47.4170000
SELECT DATEADD(MILLISECOND, 1, @now)--2016-07-21 14:39:46.4180000NOTE: DATEADD also accepts abbreviations in the datepart parameter. Use of these abbreviations is generally discouraged as they can be confusing (m vs mi, ww vs w, etc.).
Date parts reference
These are the datepart values available to date & time functions:
| datepart | Abbreviations |
|---|---|
| year | yy, yyyy |
| quarter | qq, q |
| month | mm, m |
| dayofyear | dy, y |
| day | dd, d |
| week | wk, ww |
| weekday | dw, w |
| hour | hh |
| minute | mi, n |
| second | ss, s |
| millisecond | ms |
| microsecond | mcs |
| nanosecond | ns |
NOTE: Use of abbreviations is generally discouraged as they can be confusing (m vs mi, ww vs w, etc.). The long version of the datepart representation promotes clarity and readability, and should be used whenever possible (month, minute, week, weekday, etc.).
DATEDIFF for calculating time period differences
General syntax:
DATEDIFF (datepart, datetime_expr1, datetime_expr2)It will return a positive number if datetime_expr is in the past relative to datetime_expr2, and a negative number otherwise.
Examples
DECLARE @now DATETIME2 = GETDATE();
DECLARE @oneYearAgo DATETIME2 = DATEADD(YEAR, -1, @now);
SELECT @now --2016-07-21 14:49:50.9800000
SELECT @oneYearAgo --2015-07-21 14:49:50.9800000
SELECT DATEDIFF(YEAR, @oneYearAgo, @now) --1
SELECT DATEDIFF(QUARTER, @oneYearAgo, @now) --4
SELECT DATEDIFF(WEEK, @oneYearAgo, @now) --52
SELECT DATEDIFF(DAY, @oneYearAgo, @now) --366
SELECT DATEDIFF(HOUR, @oneYearAgo, @now) --8784
SELECT DATEDIFF(MINUTE, @oneYearAgo, @now) --527040
SELECT DATEDIFF(SECOND, @oneYearAgo, @now) --31622400NOTE: DATEDIFF also accepts abbreviations in the datepart parameter. Use of these abbreviations is generally discouraged as they can be confusing (m vs mi, ww vs w, etc.).
DATEDIFF can also be used to determine the offset between UTC and the local time of the SQL Server. The following statement can be used to calculate the offset between UTC and local time (including timezone).
select DATEDIFF(hh, getutcdate(), getdate()) as 'CentralTimeOffset'DATEPART & DATENAME
DATEPART returns the specified datepart of the specified datetime expression as a numeric value.
DATENAME returns a character string that represents the specified datepart of the specified date. In practice DATENAME is mostly useful for getting the name of the month or the day of the week.
There are also some shorthand functions to get the year, month or day of a datetime expression, which behave like DATEPART with their respective datepart units.
Syntax:
DATEPART ( datepart , datetime_expr )
DATENAME ( datepart , datetime_expr )
DAY ( datetime_expr )
MONTH ( datetime_expr )
YEAR ( datetime_expr )Examples:
DECLARE @now DATETIME2 = GETDATE();
SELECT @now --2016-07-21 15:05:33.8370000
SELECT DATEPART(YEAR, @now) --2016
SELECT DATEPART(QUARTER, @now) --3
SELECT DATEPART(WEEK, @now) --30
SELECT DATEPART(HOUR, @now) --15
SELECT DATEPART(MINUTE, @now) --5
SELECT DATEPART(SECOND, @now) --33
-- Differences between DATEPART and DATENAME:
SELECT DATEPART(MONTH, @now) --7
SELECT DATENAME(MONTH, @now) --July
SELECT DATEPART(WEEKDAY, @now) --5
SELECT DATENAME(WEEKDAY, @now) --Thursday
--shorthand functions
SELECT DAY(@now) --21
SELECT MONTH(@now) --7
SELECT YEAR(@now) --2016NOTE: DATEPART and DATENAME also accept abbreviations in the datepart parameter. Use of these abbreviations is generally discouraged as they can be confusing (m vs mi, ww vs w, etc.).
Getting the last day of a month
Using the DATEADD and DATEDIFF functions, it’s possible to return the last date of a month.
SELECT DATEADD(d, -1, DATEADD(m, DATEDIFF(m, 0, '2016-09-23') + 1, 0))
-- 2016-09-30 00:00:00.000The EOMONTH function provides a more concise way to return the last date of a month, and has an optional parameter to offset the month.
SELECT EOMONTH('2016-07-21') --2016-07-31
SELECT EOMONTH('2016-07-21', 4) --2016-11-30
SELECT EOMONTH('2016-07-21', -5) --2016-02-29Return just Date from a DateTime
There are many ways to return a Date from a DateTime object
SELECT CONVERT(Date, GETDATE())SELECT DATEADD(dd, 0, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, GETDATE()))returns 2016-07-21 00:00:00.000SELECT CAST(GETDATE() AS DATE)SELECT CONVERT(CHAR(10),GETDATE(),111)SELECT FORMAT(GETDATE(), 'yyyy-MM-dd')
Note that options 4 and 5 returns a string, not a date.
Create function to calculate a person’s age on a specific date
This function will take 2 datetime parameters, the DOB, and a date to check the age at
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[Calc_Age]
(
@DOB datetime , @calcDate datetime
)
RETURNS int
AS
BEGIN
declare @age int
IF (@calcDate < @DOB )
RETURN -1
-- If a DOB is supplied after the comparison date, then return -1
SELECT @age = YEAR(@calcDate) - YEAR(@DOB) +
CASE WHEN DATEADD(year,YEAR(@calcDate) - YEAR(@DOB)
,@DOB) > @calcDate THEN -1 ELSE 0 END
RETURN @age
ENDeg to check the age today of someone born on 1/1/2000
SELECT dbo.Calc_Age('2000-01-01',Getdate())CROSS PLATFORM DATE OBJECT
In Transact SQL , you may define an object as Date (or DateTime) using the [DATEFROMPARTS][1] (or [DATETIMEFROMPARTS][1]) function like following:
DECLARE @myDate DATE=DATEFROMPARTS(1988,11,28)
DECLARE @someMoment DATETIME=DATEFROMPARTS(1988,11,28,10,30,50,123)The parameters you provide are Year, Month, Day for the DATEFROMPARTS function and, for the DATETIMEFROMPARTS function you will need to provide year, month, day, hour, minutes, seconds and milliseconds.
These methods are useful and worth being used because using the plain string to build a date(or datetime) may fail depending on the host machine region, location or date format settings.
