Select Results on a Rolling Time Period

Hi,

I'm using PHP/MySQL to return data sets on a daily basis.

But what's the WHERE clause statement to extract results from a SELECT query perhaps on a rolling weekly, monthly or quarterly basis?

I'm asking so that the Select query returns a constant moving set of results set based on the data found in the database.

Can you please give little more detail above the columns you have?

Do you want to fetch the data from the table based on any Date column you have?

Hi,

Yes so a typical query might look like: -

SELECT orderID, buyerName, BuyerAddress1, BuyerAddress2, BuyerAddress3, buyerCounty, buyerPCD, catID, quantity, totalPrice FROM salesuk WHERE invoiceDate >= "01/01/2017" ORDER BY DESC;

That type of query ... hope that helps?

This is the code I was looking for, which produces a 21 rolling day view: -

WHERE invoiceDate >= now() - INTERVAL 21 DAY
