T-SQL to find id waiting each hour

  • Hello

    Need to write sql to find datetime between start_Dt and end_Dt so that ID can be counted at each hour between start_Dt and end_Dt.

    sample data is

     create table #t( id int, start_Dt datetime, end_dt datetime)

    insert into #t values (101, '2021-07-31 22:40:00.000','2021-08-01 01:23:00.000')
    insert into #t values (102, '2021-08-01 11:40:00.000','2021-08-01 13:23:00.000')
    insert into #t values (103, '2021-08-01 10:42:00.000','2021-08-01 17:15:00.000')

    select * From #t

    create table #t_result (cnt int, dt datetime) -- result required
    insert #t_result values (1, '2021-07-31 22:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (1, '2021-07-31 23:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (1, '2021-08-01 00:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (1, '2021-08-01 01:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (0, '2021-08-01 02:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (0, '2021-08-01 03:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (0, '2021-08-01 04:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (0, '2021-08-01 05:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (0, '2021-08-01 06:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (0, '2021-08-01 07:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (0, '2021-08-01 08:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (0, '2021-08-01 09:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (1, '2021-08-01 10:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (2, '2021-08-01 11:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (2, '2021-08-01 12:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (2, '2021-08-01 13:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (1, '2021-08-01 14:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (1, '2021-08-01 15:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (1, '2021-08-01 16:00:00.000')
    insert #t_result values (1, '2021-08-01 17:00:00.000')



    select * from #t_result

    Need to count that 101 was waiting at

    2021-07-31 22:00:00.000,

    2021-07-31 23:00:00.000,

    2021-08-01 00:00:00.000,

    2021-08-01 01:00:00.000

    where as id 103 was waiting at

    2021-08-01 10:00:00.000,

    2021-08-01 11:00:00.000,

    2021-08-01 12:00:00.000,

    2021-08-01 13:00:00.000,

    2021-08-01 14:00:00.000,

    2021-08-01 15:00:00.000,

    2021-08-01 16:00:00.000,

    2021-08-01 17:00:00.000

    could you please help me to write the sql script to get the result.

  • This uses a tally function (or it could be called a "numbers function") twice.  Once, to generate the total hourly datetime range across all rows in table #t.  Second, to individually expand the date ranges in #t table.  This article describes the dbo.fnTally function.

    with
    max_min_cte(t_min_dt, t_max_dt) as (
    select min(dateadd(hour, datediff(hour, 0, start_dt), 0)),
    max(dateadd(hour, datediff(hour, 0, end_dt), 0))
    from #t),
    dt_cte(dt) as (
    select dateadd(hour, fn.n, mm.t_min_dt)
    from max_min_cte mm
    cross apply dbo.fnTally(0, datediff(hour, mm.t_min_dt, mm.t_max_dt)) fn),
    exp_cte(cnt, dt) as (
    select count(*), hr_calc.dt
    from #t t
    cross apply (values (dateadd(hour, datediff(hour, 0, t.start_dt), 0),
    dateadd(hour, datediff(hour, 0, t.end_dt), 0))) conv_hr(hr_start_dt, hr_end_dt)
    cross apply dbo.fnTally(0, datediff(hour, conv_hr.hr_start_dt, conv_hr.hr_end_dt)) hr_fn
    cross apply (values (dateadd(hour, hr_fn.n, conv_hr.hr_start_dt))) hr_calc(dt)
    group by hr_calc.dt)
    select d.dt, isnull(e.cnt, 0) cnt
    from dt_cte d
    left join exp_cte e on d.dt=e.dt
    order by d.dt;

  • Simplified using OUTER APPLY instead of the LEFT JOIN

    with
    max_min_cte(t_min_dt, t_max_dt) as (
    select min(dateadd(hour, datediff(hour, 0, start_dt), 0)),
    max(dateadd(hour, datediff(hour, 0, end_dt), 0))
    from #t)
    select calc.dt, isnull(oa.cnt, 0) cnt
    from max_min_cte mm
    cross apply dbo.fnTally(0, datediff(hour, mm.t_min_dt, mm.t_max_dt)) fn
    cross apply (values (dateadd(hour, fn.n, mm.t_min_dt))) calc(dt)
    outer apply (select count(*)
    from #t t
    cross apply (values (dateadd(hour, datediff(hour, 0, t.start_dt), 0),
    dateadd(hour, datediff(hour, 0, t.end_dt), 0))) conv_hr(hr_start_dt, hr_end_dt)
    cross apply dbo.fnTally(0, datediff(hour, conv_hr.hr_start_dt, conv_hr.hr_end_dt)) hr_fn
    cross apply (values (dateadd(hour, hr_fn.n, conv_hr.hr_start_dt))) hr_calc(dt)
    where calc.dt=hr_calc.dt) oa(cnt)
    order by calc.dt;
