Hello All,
I was wondering how to achieve the following,.... I have two date fields, one for created and one for shipped. I was wondering whether it was possible to select a date (i.e. 01/01/2012) and for it to select results from the shipped_date and created_date? So it would select all possible rows of data? e.g.
PROD SHIPPED_DATE CREATED_DATE ID
A 01/01/2012 11/12/2011 1
B 31/01/2012 01/01/2012 2
A 02/01/2012 31/12/2011 3
In the above example, I would want to select 01/01/2012 and receive rows with the ID of 1 and 2...
Many thanks for your help!
Kind Regards,
Dayna
If the two rows are from different tables, you could alias both date columns with the same name, e.g. %DATE.
When you select a %DATE, both rows will appear in the selection.
Hello, sadly not as I tried the same - there in the same table as they've been combined with a left join.
Hi Dayna,
You could use the following:
LOAD
SHIPPED_DATE as %DATE,
*
Resident products;
Concatenate
LOAD
CREATED_DATE as %DATE,
*
Resident products;
By creating a list box for the %DATE column and a selection in this box, the correct rows will appear. Note that the created table will contain multiple rows for the combination of PROD, SHIPPED_DATE, CREATED_DATE, ID, because you've duplicated them.
However, as long as don't show the %DATE column, the duplicate rows will be ommitted in a table box.
Hi,
Try this ..
Create island table contain Date field or create calendar object by using variable. Use same Date field or variable in expression.
