CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `accesscards` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`department` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`name` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`entrydates` datetime NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;
INSERT INTO `accesscards` (`id`, `department`, `name`, `entrydates`) VALUES
(1, 'test', 't1', '2013-12-06 16:10:00'),
(2, 'test', 't1', '2013-12-06 15:10:00'),
(3, 'test', 't1', '2013-12-07 15:11:00'),

(8, 'test', 't2', '2013-12-07 16:59:00');
Above is my query, I want to get records for a person for each day. And that record should have min datetime for the day. I need whole record for that date time
My expected output here
I tried using
SELECT id, MIN(entrydates) FROM accesscards WHERE 1=1 AND name!='' GROUP BY DATE(entrydates) ORDER BY id
but for 't1' I got id=1 and entrydates of first row.
Please help me out. If duplicate then provide link.
SELECT a1.*
FROM accesscards a1
JOIN (SELECT name, MIN(entrydates) mindate
FROM accesscards
WHERE name != ''
GROUP BY name, date(entrydates)) a2
ON a1.name = a2.name AND a1.entrydates = a2.mindate
DEMO
If you are using mysql : GROUP_CONCAT and SUBSTRING_INDEX
SELECT
DATE(entrydates) AS grouped_date,
GROUP_CONCAT(id ORDER BY entrydates ASC SEPARATOR ',') AS id_ordered_list,
SUBSTRING_INDEX(GROUP_CONCAT(id ORDER BY entrydates ASC), ',', 1) AS min_id_for_day
FROM
accesscards
WHERE
1=1 AND name!=''
GROUP BY
DATE(entrydates)
If you need other fields besides id to be shown, add this to you select :
SUBSTRING_INDEX(GROUP_CONCAT(YOUR_FIELDNAME_HERE ORDER BY entrydates ASC), ',', 1) AS min_YOUR_FIELDNAME_for_day

After you updated your question with new data:
http://sqlfiddle.com/#!2/a2671/20
SELECT
DATE(entrydates) AS grouped_date,
SUBSTRING_INDEX(GROUP_CONCAT(id ORDER BY entrydates ASC), ',', 1) AS min_id_for_day,
department,
name,
SUBSTRING_INDEX(GROUP_CONCAT(entrydates ORDER BY entrydates ASC), ',', 1) AS min_entrydate_for_day
FROM
accesscards
WHERE
1=1 AND name!=''
GROUP BY
name,DATE(entrydates)
ORDER BY entrydates
Try this out this will surely help you
select id,department,name,entrydates from accesscards where entrydates in (select min(entrydates) from accesscards group by to_char(entrydates,'dd-Mon-yyyy')) order by id;
