Quarterly Object

Hello All,

I have one report request in which i need to make a prompt for Quater object to see the data based on Quarter.

we have two object named start date and end date.

Start date type:10/1/2009 12:00:00 AM and so on…

End Date type:10/31/2009 12:00:00 AM and so on…

Now i want to make an object with the quarter for Start Date and End Date.

I am using SQL Server 2000.

Marek,

Thanks for your reply, Just want to conform this works?Correct me if i am wrong.

I have created one detail object of start date as follows.


Datepart(q, Table.column)

I have used in the Query filter as a prompt. It is showing me 2, 3 4 as quarter’s LOV.User will select the quarter based on their requirement.

Does this will accomplish the requirement to see the quarterly report.

Other wise as you have posted me the code. how am i going to make predifined filter so that user will get list of value to select based on quarter?

Start of Current Quarter
Code:
dateadd(qq,datediff(qq,0,getdate()),0)

End of Current Quarter
Code:
dateadd(qq,datediff(qq,-1,getdate()),-1)

Thanks
