CREATE TABLE DELAYSECONDS(
ProgramID INT, ID INT, ContractHeaderID INT, ContractStartTime TIME, ProgramStartTime TIME ,ContractDetailFirstDay INT ,ProgramFirstDay INT, DelaySeconds INT)
INSERT INTO DELAYSECONDS
VALUES (625, 625, 115278, '18:00:00', '18:00:00', 2, 2, 0),
(623, 623, 115279, '8:00:00', '15:05:00', 1,NULL, 0),
(624, 624, 115280, '18:00:00', '19:00:00', 7, 7, 0),
(625, 625, 115281, '18:00:00', '18:00:00', 2, 2, 0),
(625, 625, 115282, '19:00:00', '18:00:00', 2, 2, 3600)
see my data above,
i want the delayseconds field populated
the logic is below:
lets get the time difference between the
contractdetailfirstday - programdetailfirstday = a
a*24(hrs of the day)*60(minutes in the hour)*60(seconds in the minute) =b
lets get the time difference between the time
contractdetailstarttime-programstarttime (inseconds) =c
b+c = d 'delayseconds'
if (d>0) then return d
else o
does this make sense?
pls assist as this is due today.
thanks

So now that we have a working table and sample data what have you tried? I suspect you should be able to do most of this without any help at all. I don't quite understand why there are some variables a,b,c,d since that is just one piece of math. Put that part together. Once you are done you will need to handle the "if (d>0) then return d else o" part. This can easily be done with a case expression. Sure we could write this for you but then you aren't going to learn anything. Give it a shot and post your efforts. We can help dial you in to the correct answer.

Other than using basic operations, you just need to use DATEDIFF and a CASE expression, maybe ISNULL to prevent NULL values. What are you having problems with?
August 25, 2016 at 11:16 am
I asked a similar question on one of your earlier posts.....
for example
"ProgramFirstday" = 1
"ContractDetailFirstDay" = 7
how do you determine whether this is 6 day delay OR 1 day early?

I asked a similar question on one of your earlier posts.....for example
"ProgramFirstday" = 1
"ContractDetailFirstDay" = 7
how do you determine whether this is 6 day delay OR 1 day early?
The initial table has 0 false or 1 true for each day of the week, i used case expressions to return the first day of the week with 1 (true)as first day and same for the program table
to enable me know the difference between the days from contract and program tables , i passed values eg, 7 for monday, 6 for tuesday and so on, and the same for the program table . so if the first day of the contract table is monday 7 and the first day for the program table is tuesday 6? then the difference will be 1 day=7-6
1)i want to be able to convert this difference of 1 day to seconds
2) i also want to convert the diffrence between the contract start time and program start time to seconds, eg, if the difference is 2 hrs, convert it to seconds
add both together to give us the delay seconds

2) Multiply by 3600.
Add (1) and (2). Which part is the difficult part?
