DB2 SQL Convert Packed Decimal to Time with Formatting
asked on
LPSDT and LPFDT are date and time stored as Packed Decimal. I am attempting to extract the information out and put it in time format and calculate Time Spent.
select LPEM as "Employee", LPLC as "LaborCode",
to_date(char(lpsdt), 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS') as "Start Date/Time",
to_date(char(lpfdt), 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS') as "Finish Date/Time",
to_date(char(lpfdt), 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS') - to_date(char(lpsdt), 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS') as "Time Spent",
