SQL & PL/SQL :: Date / Time Conversion
Apr 4, 2010
I am converting data from an old paradox table to a new oracle table, one of the problems im having is incompatibility with date and time formats:
some columns contain times in the format : "00:00:00" eg..... "15:00:00"
some columns have date in the format: "dd/mm/yyyy" eg....... "21/08/2000"
some columns have time and date eg.. "05/09/2000 15:49:39"
Currently I have the data held in tables within an access database, and in CSV format.
eg, I have dates like 03/04/2010 which i need to be 03-APR-10....
how I can get the following into Oracle date formats? there is over 1000 records so manual conversion is out of the question

I would like to know how to convert the following:
13-AUG-12 03.30.06.146 PM
to the format:
"MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS AM"...
I believe there is a time zone issue here as well, since the should actually be around 11:30am. I am not sure what time zone is being used.

I am able to see 1Hr difference in my date fields of SQL output because in UI (User Interface) date field was stored in BST format but DB time zone is in GMT format so how to find a solution for 1 hr difference, here i don't have Privileges to alter DB time zone and i couldn't use function as i have so many SQL's and can't apply that function manually. SO is there any other option to change the DB time zone with out alter it and with out using function.

My company uses Remedy which stores date/time as an integer. I use the following formula to convert it to a readable date:
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('01/01/1970', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS AM')+ ((createdate - 4*3600)/(60*60*24)),'MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS AM') as Create_Date
I have to use the "4*3600" in order to get the date to show up correctly, but even then the date sometimes comes up wrong. If the date occurs in the morning, then the date shows up as the previous day. I am sure this is probably due to the offset I am adding in the above formula. If I don't add the 4 hour offset, then the date shows up 4 hours off.

I want to change a table datatype from date to number where already existing data should get convert.any possibility of doing where i tried like this but no get changing. Even as Julian format is working a bit i want the data to come as GMT format
Scenarios where i tried are like this.
ALTER TABLE Contacts ADD ALERT_DATE1 NUMBER(20,0)
/
UPDATE Contacts SET ALERT_DATE1 = TO_NUMBER(ALERT_DATE)
/
ALTER TABLE Contacts DROP COLUMN ALERT_DATE
/
ALTER TABLE Contacts RENAME COLUMN ALERT_DATE1 TO ALERT_DATE
/
but second statement failing.
Julian fomat like
SELECT sysdate,
TO_CHAR(sysdate, 'J'),
TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(sysdate, 'J'),'J')
FROM dual;

I recently became involved with databases, and i've came across with a little obstacle. I have strings that represent a date, they are very oddly formatted and need to store them as dates. the string format looks like this: 'Monday, May the 13th of 2001'
How can i effectively convert them to DATE type?

I have been given some data in excel sheet to be uploaded in an Oracle Table. The dates are in Julian. The date in Julian in excel sheet is as :-'110048'.
In the excel file, I found that the cell was formatted as General and when I changed the formatting to Date I got the result as '19/04/2211'.
tell me a way to convert this Julian to mm/dd/yyyy format to be inserted into a table in Oracle.
Tried this :-
SQL> SELECT to_char(to_date(to_char(110048), 'J'),'DD/MM/YYYY') FROM dual;
TO_CHAR(TO
----------
18/04/4411
Not sure how to go about it.

I am having a strange issue with date conversion. The errors encountered are :
PLS-00382: expression is of wrong type
PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to '>'
The situation or test case is as follows:
create table sand_programs(prog_code varchar2(20), prog_end_dt date);
create table sand_program1(prog_code varchar2(20), filing_date number(15));
Result : Both the tables are created.
Now I create a procedure below as mentioned, to check if the filing_date is greater than the prog_end_dt or not.If the filing_date is greater than prog_ end_dt, then it should go to the 1st "dbms_output.put_line" message else it should go to the 2nd "dbms_output.put_line" message.
Here's my procedure:
create or replace procedure test_sand(p_program_cd in number) is
v_prog_end_dt date;
v_filing_date number;
begin
[code]....

I am passing a Date to the Oracle Procedure in `date +'%b_%d-%H:%M:%S'` format.
rmsqa813.2 /home/ashlaksh> echo `date +'%b_%d-%H:%M:%S'`
Jun_14-02:26:37
The oracle Procedure's SQL is as following,
SELECT ffdh.fiscal_doc_id INVOICE_ID,
ffdh.location_id LOCATION_ID
FROM fm_fiscal_doc_header ffdh,
fm_schedule fs
[code]........
The above SQL is not getting the data as the Date format "AND ffdh.last_update_datetime <=i_last_update_datetime " is not matching..
Do I need to convert the Date ? ( But i_last_update_datetime is DATE)

Due to some business requirements a table field needs to change from date to timestamp in order to handle the millisecs.
1>When i alter the row , for a table with 150 million recs will there be a conversion. Is there a recommended way to convert the field. Mind you this field is used as a part of composite PK.
2> There is a interfacing application which connects and copies the data to its system and is using the date type, will that application be able to continue to work without any changes, if it does not care about the millisecs.
3> Will there be performance impact on an existing application that uses the date field to sort
4> Will DB need more space due to the change

I can't seem to understand why the hour is incorrect. Below query "dte_computation_on_data" is the old function they use to convert date and insert it to the table. Problem is when I revert it to the actual date the hour
is incorrect.
CODE
SELECT -- THIS HERE IS MY TEST TO REVERT TIME AND DATE ON THE FORMULA OF WITH RESPECT TO THEIR FUNCTION
to_char(TO_DATE('19700101', 'YYYYMMDD')+(tb1.dte_computation_on_data/86400),'MM/DD/YYYY') || ' ' ||
to_char(to_date(mod (tb1.dte_computation_on_data,86400) ,'sssss'),'hh24:mi:ss ') revert_test,
systimestamp,tb1.dte_computation_on_data
from
( SELECT -- THIS IS THE FORMULA OF THE OLD FUNCTION THEY USE TO CONVERT DATE TO NUMBER AND INSERTED ON THE ROW
floor((CAST(SYS_EXTRACT_UTC(systimestamp) AS DATE) - TO_DATE('19700101', 'YYYYMMDD')) * 86400) dte_computation_on_data
FROM dual)tb1;
results

When I try to extract the date tag value from XML data, the time stored in 20120602153021 format i.e., YYYYMMDD24HHMISS format. The following statement extracts only date as 02-JUN-12 however do not extract the time part.
If I try the same in SQLplus with to_date it works however fails in PL/SQL.
XML data:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<RECORD>
<REGTIMESTAMP>20120601130010</REGTIMESTAMP>

PL/SQL Extract:

I want to reset my date to this format: 12/31/2012 11:59:59 PM - see code below:
DECLARE
v_latest_close DATE;
BEGIN
v_latest_close := TO_DATE ('12/31/2012 23:59:59 ','MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS');
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('The new date format is : '|| v_latest_close);
END;
the code above displays only : 12/31/2012 instead of 12/31/2012 11:59:59 PM

I need to convert the type of GMT to Local time, during data entry. I have a source table and a target table.
To make the insert get the most value, I have no problems:
insert into destination (SELECT * FROM WHERE source pointnumber = (SELECT MAX (pointnumber) FROM source));
But since times are different between the tables, I want to convert the data obtained to GMT -4:30 Time (Caracas - Venezuela), before inserting it.
I can use a function?

I am having problems with the XMLTable function. I cant get it to see the entire date/time value in a date field. This wont work
select x1.* from XMLTABLE('/DOCUMENT' passing xmltype('<DOCUMENT><STR>abc def ghi</STR><NUM>1234</NUM><DT>2013-02-17T04:24:02</DT></DOCUMENT>') columns STR varchar2(25), NUM number, DT date) x1;
However if I change the DT tag to just the date only "2013-02-17" it works. Why wont Oracle see the entire date/time format even if its ISO 8601 compliant?

T1 = 06-Jun-2011 4:00PM
T2 = 10-Jun-2011 11:AM
Calculation is Required.
If at the end of Day Hours of T1 > 6 hours then it should calculate 1 Day.
same with T2. hours of T2(from begining of Day till end Time (11AM), it should again caculate if >6 hours then 1 Day.
remaining will be date calculation. this is how T2 - T1 should give us 5 Days.
Detail
06-Jun-2011 4:00PM to 06-Jun-2011 12:00AM (8 hours > 6 = 1 Day)
06-Jun-2011 12:00AM to 07-Jun-2011 12:00AM = (1 Day)
07-Jun-2011 12:00AM to 08-Jun-2011 12:00AM = (1 Day)
08-Jun-2011 12:00AM to 09-Jun-2011 12:00AM = (1 Day)
09-Jun-2011 12:00AM to 10-Jun-2011 12:00AM = (1 Day)
10-Jun-2011 12:00AM to 10-Jun-2011 11:00AM (11 hrs > 6 = 1 Day)
this is how 5Days calculation is required.
