!!! Calendar / Date / Array / Query problem
Here's the app def:
Its an approval site for time. User enters how much hours they worked overtime.
Manager logs on and can approve or reject.
Current Situation:
I need to be able to add the number of hours for each day and print it out for that day for each employee
I have the following query:
<!--- grabs all approved users info --->
<CFQUERY DATASOURCE="lieu" NAME="lookup">
SELECT to_char (zdate, 'mm/DD/yyyy hh24:MI') as zdate,
to_char (time, 'mm/DD/yyyy hh24:MI') as zTime,
title, id, comments, status, type, user_id
FROM lieu_events
WHERE zdate LIKE '%#UCase(DateFormat(ThisCa
AND status='APPROVED'
</CFQUERY>
How do I alter the SQL statement so that it sums up the number of hours entered (zdate - time) per day for each user_id??

Thx for responding mrichmon.
Btw, there is also a type table field.
This indicates what kind of request. Overtime or Taking time off.
How would that change, like so?
<CFQUERY DATASOURCE="lieu" NAME="lookup">
SELECT SUM(Datediff(h, zdate, time)) AS hoursum, user_id, type
FROM lieu_events
WHERE zdate LIKE '%#UCase(DateFormat(ThisCa
AND status='APPROVED'
GROUP BY user_id, type
</CFQUERY>

I mean, if on one day within the month .... the user - for whatever reason - decides to input two requests for time taken off or overtime then i'd like to sum up the hours of time taken off separately and overtime worked separately within one particular day for each user.
is that too cryptic? i hope someone can figure out what im trying to say

Here's the table definition:
Name Null? Type
--------------------------
ID VARCHAR2(8)
USER_ID VARCHAR2(6)
ZDATE DATE
TIME DATE
TITLE VARCHAR2(75)
COMMENTS VARCHAR2(200)
STATUS VARCHAR2(50)
TYPE VARCHAR2(25)
Im' getting the following error:
ORA-00904: invalid column name
SQL = "SELECT SUM(Datediff(h, zdate, time)) AS hoursum, user_id FROM lieu_events WHERE zdate LIKE '%OCT-04%' AND status='APPROVED' GROUP BY user_id"

ASKER
mind you, I also would like it so that it sums up the hours for each day.
is the query doing that?
<CFQUERY DATASOURCE="lieu" NAME="lookup">
SELECT SUM(Datediff(h, zdate, time)) AS hoursum, user_id, type
FROM lieu_events
WHERE zdate LIKE '%#UCase(DateFormat(ThisCa
AND status='APPROVED'
GROUP BY user_id, type
</CFQUERY>
from what it seems, its summing up the hours for whatever zdate im passing it. which in this case, is the first of the month.

if that's too difficult... once the query is working.. should i itterate through the query and input the values into an array? if so, how would i do that?
sorry guys.. but i need to get this done ASAP

haha.... nice email addy campbelc / badtemper ...
well i got it figured out ... and although none of you were able to guide me in the right direciton. possibly because i didn't explain properly... i will give a few of you that did attempt to help me out points....
KDK
p.s. i couldn't get the group by thing going for my particular problem... so used an array to store unqiue user_id ... and then looped thru and added the hrs ... if anyone wants to see the code... let me know

SELECT SUM(Datediff(h, zdate, time)) AS hoursum, user_id
FROM lieu_events
WHERE zdate LIKE '%#UCase(DateFormat(ThisCa

GROUP BY user_id
</CFQUERY>
That should do it.
If you still need other columns just add them to both the select and group by....
