Converting Date Field To Datestamp (Epoch Date)
Apr 11, 2013
I have a small prolem thats best described like this....
a table called TONY with a field named VISITED (date as YYYYMMDD).
We want to populate the field TIMESTAMP (Last visited timestamp, 18 digits) using midnight or 00:00:00 on VISITED value.
Something like:
UPDATE TONY SET TIMESTAMP = �(whatever the formula is involving VISITED).
but i cannot figure out the best way to derive the TIMESTAMP value...
it's a date to epoch conversion, and i can find many examples of Epoch to date, but thats the wrong way around for me i'm afraid!
Oracle 11gR2 by the way...

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.

How can I convert a DATE to EPOCH time taking care of daylight savings?
I tried with this code but there is a difference of 36000 seconds. eg:Sysdate_To_Epoch('04-Sep-2012') gives 1346716800 whereas it should give 1346680800.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION Sysdate_To_Epoch(v_date IN DATE)
RETURN NUMBER

Version : 4.1.1, I have a tabular form on a DB table. One of the columns is a date field. When the user hits the "add Row" button on the tabular form, I want the Date field to be defaulted to sysdate. Here is what I have tried so far,
1. Created a "hidden" item P1_SYSDATE and populated the default value with sysdate. After this, under the DB tabular report date field, I used default type - Item/application on this page and entered P1_sYSDATE
2. Instead of populating the default value of the P1_SYSDATE hidden item, I created a before regions process and added
:P1_SYSDATE := sysdate
and added P1_SYSDATE to default type of the tabular date field with default type as "ITem/application on this page.
I get the error
ORA-01790: expression must have same datatype as corresponding expression
I tried to_Char(sysdate,'dd-mon-yyyy') and then converting it back to to_date. still no luck.

I have a date field that should be filled everyday with today's date and I need to get the days that were not entered.
i.e. :
CREATE TABLE TRY_F (DAT DATE);
INSERT ALL
INTO TRY_F VALUES (to_date('01/01/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'))
INTO TRY_F VALUES (to_date('02/01/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'))
INTO TRY_F VALUES (to_date('04/01/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'))
INTO TRY_F VALUES (to_date('05/01/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'))
INTO TRY_F VALUES (to_date('06/01/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'))
INTO TRY_F VALUES (to_date('08/01/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'))
INTO TRY_F VALUES (to_date('10/01/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'))
INTO TRY_F VALUES (to_date('14/01/2011','DD/MM/YYYY'))
SELECT * FROM DUAL;
I need a smart way of getting the dates that were missed in DAT.

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?
Oracle DB: 11.2.0.3.0

i have a varchar2 column containing string values that can be converted to date i.e. ('31-JUL-11') and that column also contains text strings in it. i.e. ('Some string data...')
records whose column value can be converted to date are extractable via where clause (i.e. those rows are associated with some fix number / flag)
now when i try to use to_date function i get the error that
" ORA-01858 a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected "
in sql i have added a where clause to only pick rows with flag, but even then it gives the error.
using a subquery in the from clause eliminates the error, but when i create it in a view it again gives the same error.

I need loading date formats using sqlldr. I am trying to load some data from another source into our Oracle database, however, the "date" field includes extra characters that i'm trying to deal with. For reference, I'm running Oracle 11.2 on Linux 5.7.
First, the actual date input is:
April 18, 2013 8:50:44 AM EDTI tried to input it a few ways but was unable to load it until I physically removed the "AM EDT" from the input string.
My first question is if there is a way to RTRIM and get rid of those extra characters. Either that, or I need a way to convert the "AM EDT" into our standard date format.
My control file has the following:
LASTCHANGEDAT date "Month dd, YYYY HH MI SS",This will load the data, but only if I strip out the "AM EDT" from the actual data input which is not feasible.
Also, how would I handle date that comes in as: April 18, 2013 3:50:44 PM EDT
Also, I tried the following, but it gives me a different error:
LASTCHANGEDAT "to_date(:LASTCHANGEDAT,'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')",
gives me error:
Record 1: Rejected - Error on table NTWKREP.INTERFACE, column LASTCHANGEDAT.
ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected

I'm trying to work out how to take a table like this:
IDDate
12502-Feb-07
12516-Mar-07
12523-May-07
12524-May-07
12525-May-07
33302-Jan-09
33303-Jan-09
33304-Jan-09
33317-Mar-09
And display the data like this:
IDPeriodPeriod StartPeriod End
125102-Feb-0702-Feb-07
125216-Mar-0716-Mar-07
125323-May-0725-May-07
333102-Jan-0904-Jan-09
333217-Mar-0917-Mar-09
As you can see, it's split the entries into date ranges. If there is a 'lone' date, the 'period start' and the 'period end' are the same date.

I want to force a datetime field to display as date only. How can I do this? This is so when prompting for a value for this field a user doesn't have to also enter the time. At the moment the prompt returns nothing when entering only a date as it does not match any value as they all have times also.

I have a table and below are the rows:
create table employee_rev(employee_id number, month_name varchar2(10), month_end date, financial_year date, revenue_amt number)
Begin
insert into employee_rev values(111, 'DEC-09', '31-DEC-2009', '01-APR-2009', 1300);
insert into employee_rev values(111, 'JAN-10', '31-JAN-2010', '01-APR-2009', 1000);

insert into employee_rev values(111, 'APR-10', '30-APR-2010', '01-APR-2010', 1000);
insert into employee_rev values(111, 'MAY-10', '31-MAY-2010', '01-APR-2010', 1100);
insert into employee_rev values(111, 'JUN-10', '30-JUN-2010', '01-APR-2010', 2100);
End;
I also need a YTD (Year to Date) field at the last which is sum of current month revenue_amt and sum(revenue_amt) for previous months for a particular financial_year_date.
The output should be:
Person_ID Month End Date Year Date Rev YTD
111 Dec-09 31-Dec-09 1-Apr-09 1300 1300
111 Jan-10 31-Jan-10 1-Apr-09 1000 2300
111 Feb-10 28-Feb-10 1-Apr-09 800 3100
111 Mar-10 31-Mar-10 1-Apr-09 1000 4100
111 Apr-10 30-Apr-10 1-Apr-10 1000 1000--change in financial year
111 May-10 31-May-10 1-Apr-10 1100 2100
111 Jun-10 30-Jun-10 1-Apr-10 2100 4200
I guess this should be achievable using some analytical functions, but I am unable to get the desired output.

I have a timestamp field in an oracle table. The data in that field looks like this.
19-MAY-2011 10.55.21.628206000 AM
I want to query the data in this field by only date portion (not the time portion).
Something like this.
Select * from mytable where archivedate = to_date('19-may-2011','dd-mon-yyyy')
this query doesn't return any data. But actually there is data for 19-may-2011 (along with time portion) in that field.
how to query based on only date portion?

I'm trying to return a field in a date format, but my minutes keep returning as 03. See example below:
TO_CHAR (i.editdate, 'mm/dd/yyyy HH24:MM:SS') AS "Date",
Actual data field in the table contains:
10/27/2010 1:07:42 PM
Data returned is:
10/27/2010 13:03:42
Why are the minutes incorrect?

I have a display item form field. The field's data type is date. It is also a database field that corresponds to a date field in the table.
I have set the format mask on the form field to
MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS
I can populate that field with sysdate in when-new-form-instance.
However, if I try to get the date and the time in the field, it just populates the date with the time of 00:00:00.
(02/16/2010 00:00:00 for example).
I have tried several to_char and to_date variations but can't seem to get the current time into that field.

In a detail tabular form I am referencing a date picker field from the master form as default value.This is the situation in the detail form:
TABULAR FORM
Column Name: FECHAREGISTRO -- the field's name in the detail tabular form
Default Type: Item (application or page item name)
Default: P68_FECHAREGISTRO -- It's a field in the master form and also is Date Picker format
Reference Table Owner: SAMPEDRORIVEROS
Reference Table Name: BITACORAABOGADO
Reference Column Name: FECHAREGISTRO -- It's a date field in the database
At execution time I have the error:
report error:ORA-01790: expression must have same datatype as corresponding expression
I think it is because i must use to_date and to_char in order to change the datatype and i have tried using:
Default: to_date(to_char(:P68_FECHAREGISTRO,'DD-MON-YYYY'),'DD-MON-YYYY')
and in Default Type: PL/SQL Expression or Function but I get a different message at execution time:
report error: ORA-01722: invalid number.

Than when I try to alter my temp table "mth". I get an error table must be empty to change column types.
alter table n546830.mth modify (DAY_DK date);
Next I tried making my temporary table "mth" a date column. When I an the exchange partition command I get the following error:
alter table t1.monthly exchange partition DEC_2012

alter table n546830.monthly exchange partition DEC_2012 with table n546830.mth without validation

Method I can use to convert a number(10) to date column and keep the information in a table. Note, I don't care about HH:MM:SS as I never had that information to begin with and would be happy to set that part of the date column to all zeroes "00:00:00"
