Quite often when writing reports I need to write a formula to calculate dates. Dates are not very straightforward…

This will get you everyone with a Start Date after today minus one year:
select * from UPR00100
where STRTDATE > DATEADD(yy,-1,GETDATE())

If you want to exclude future start dates, you could add
and STRTDATE <= GETDATE()

I would use the computer date and the StartDate from Payroll Master table, but can’t seem to put the syntax together correctly.
Thanks,
Sandy

You could use something like this:
select * from YourTable
where (select cast(datediff(d, LastLogin, getdate())
AS DECIMAL (8,1))/365) <= 2

That should give you every row from YourTable with a LastLogin in the last 2 years.

That way I only get users that have logged in within the last two years…

thanks for your help if you can.
