T-SQL statement to return SQL Job Last Run Date

  • Hi,

    Is there anyway that we can retrieve the Last Run date of a SQL Job using T-SQL.

    Thanks

  • SELECT j.[name],

    MAX(CAST(

    STUFF(STUFF(CAST(jh.run_date as varchar),7,0,'-'),5,0,'-') + ' ' +

    STUFF(STUFF(REPLACE(STR(jh.run_time,6,0),' ','0'),5,0,':'),3,0,':') as datetime)) AS [LastRun]

    FROM msdb.dbo.sysjobs j

    INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.sysjobhistory jh

    ON jh.job_id = j.job_id AND jh.step_id = 0

    WHERE j.[name] = 'jobname'

    GROUP BY j.[name]

    Far away is close at hand in the images of elsewhere.

  • David, thank you for the post. I ran the query and it returned the date of last DTS run, do you know how to get the last "successfull" DTS run

    Thanks,

  • Based on David's script:

    SELECT j.[name],

    MAX(CAST(

    STUFF(STUFF(CAST(jh.run_date as varchar),7,0,'-'),5,0,'-') + ' ' +

    STUFF(STUFF(REPLACE(STR(jh.run_time,6,0),' ','0'),5,0,':'),3,0,':') as datetime)) AS [LastRun],

    CASE jh.run_status WHEN 0 THEN 'Failed'

    WHEN 1 THEN 'Success'

    WHEN 2 THEN 'Retry'

    WHEN 3 THEN 'Canceled'

    WHEN 4 THEN 'In progress'

    END AS Status

    FROM msdb.dbo.sysjobs j

    INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.sysjobhistory jh

    ON jh.job_id = j.job_id AND jh.step_id = 0

    inner join msdb.dbo.syscategories sc

    on j.category_id = sc.category_id

    WHERE sc.[name] like '%DTS%'

    GROUP BY j.[name], jh.run_status

  • Thank you very much for the script.

  • Do you know how to get the last datetime of SQL replication? Thank you!

    Do you know how to get the last datetime of SQL replication? Thank you!

    Not sure what you asked.

    There are several _history tables in distribution db, like, MSdistribution_history, MSlogreader_history, etc... You can get some info from there.

  • Can you please give me an example SQL Statement to use to get the last datetime of the scheduled replication? Thanks

  • for a lot of examples on how to query dts schedule fields see http://raoulteeuwen.blogspot.com/2008/09/query-job-last-run-status-in-ms-sql.html and the link in that blog to http://doc.ddart.net/mssql/sql70/sp_help_27.htm ... it shows you how you can check last run date, last run status etc.

  • Thanks for posting this script. I'm having trouble modifying it to my use though. I'm trying to create a script that I can have dbmail run to email me the last run status of every job. The script given, if I remove the where section works, except it gives the last run for each type of status. If there's been a failure and a success within it's history it shows both with dates.

    Any ideas on how I can just have it show the late run status and time?

    CASE jh.run_status WHEN 0 THEN 'Failed'

    WHEN 1 THEN 'Success'

    WHEN 2 THEN 'Retry'

    WHEN 3 THEN 'Canceled'

    WHEN 4 THEN 'In progress'

    END AS [Status]

    FROM (SELECT a.job_id,MAX(a.instance_id) As [instance_id]

    FROM msdb.dbo.sysjobhistory a

    WHERE a.step_id = 0

    GROUP BY a.job_id) b

    INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.sysjobhistory jh ON jh.instance_id=b.instance_id

    INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.sysjobs j ON j.job_id = jh.job_id

  • Thank you. That's exactly what I was looking for.

  • Thank you for the script Wildcat, it's very useful for me!
