Get the week start date and week end date from wee

Question

I have a query that counts member's wedding dates in the database...

Select 
  Sum(NumberOfBrides) As [Wedding Count], 
  DATEPART( wk, WeddingDate) as [Week Number],
  DATEPART( year, WeddingDate) as [Year]
FROM  MemberWeddingDates
Group By DATEPART( year, WeddingDate), DATEPART( wk, WeddingDate)
Order By Sum(NumberOfBrides) Desc

How do I work out when the start and end of each week represented in the result set?

Select 
      Sum(NumberOfBrides) As [Wedding Count], 
      DATEPART( wk, WeddingDate) as [Week Number],
      DATEPART( year, WeddingDate) as [Year],
      ??? as WeekStart,
      ??? as WeekEnd

    FROM  MemberWeddingDates
    Group By DATEPART( year, WeddingDate), DATEPART( wk, WeddingDate)
    Order By Sum(NumberOfBrides) Desc

Answer 1

Week Start & End Date From Date For Power BI Dax Formula

WeekStartDate = [DateColumn] - (WEEKDAY([DateColumn])-1)
WeekEndDate = [DateColumn] + (7-WEEKDAY([DateColumn]))

Answer 2

Here is a DATEFIRST agnostic solution:

SET DATEFIRST 4     /* or use any other weird value to test it */
DECLARE @d DATETIME

SET @d = GETDATE()

SELECT
  @d ThatDate,
  DATEADD(dd, 0 - (@@DATEFIRST + 5 + DATEPART(dw, @d)) % 7, @d) Monday,
  DATEADD(dd, 6 - (@@DATEFIRST + 5 + DATEPART(dw, @d)) % 7, @d) Sunday

Answer 3

I just encounter a similar case with this one, but the solution here seems not helping me. So I try to figure it out by myself. I work out the week start date only, week end date should be of similar logic.

Select 
      Sum(NumberOfBrides) As [Wedding Count], 
      DATEPART( wk, WeddingDate) as [Week Number],
      DATEPART( year, WeddingDate) as [Year],
      DATEADD(DAY, 1 - DATEPART(WEEKDAY, dateadd(wk, DATEPART( wk, WeddingDate)-1,  DATEADD(yy,DATEPART( year, WeddingDate)-1900,0))), dateadd(wk, DATEPART( wk, WeddingDate)-1, DATEADD(yy,DATEPART( year, WeddingDate)-1900,0))) as [Week Start]

FROM  MemberWeddingDates
Group By DATEPART( year, WeddingDate), DATEPART( wk, WeddingDate)
Order By Sum(NumberOfBrides) Desc

Answer 4

Expanding on @Tomalak's answer. The formula works for days other than Sunday and Monday but you need to use different values for where the 5 is. A way to arrive at the value you need is

Value Needed = 7 - (Value From Date First Documentation for Desired Day Of Week) - 1

here is a link to the document: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms181598.aspx

And here is a table that lays it out for you.

          | DATEFIRST VALUE |   Formula Value   |   7 - DATEFIRSTVALUE - 1
Monday    | 1               |          5        |   7 - 1- 1 = 5
Tuesday   | 2               |          4        |   7 - 2 - 1 = 4
Wednesday | 3               |          3        |   7 - 3 - 1 = 3
Thursday  | 4               |          2        |   7 - 4 - 1 = 2
Friday    | 5               |          1        |   7 - 5 - 1 = 1
Saturday  | 6               |          0        |   7 - 6 - 1 = 0
Sunday    | 7               |         -1        |   7 - 7 - 1 = -1

But you don't have to remember that table and just the formula, and actually you could use a slightly different one too the main need is to use a value that will make the remainder the correct number of days.

Here is a working example:

DECLARE @MondayDateFirstValue INT = 1
DECLARE @FridayDateFirstValue INT = 5
DECLARE @TestDate DATE = GETDATE()

SET @MondayDateFirstValue = 7 - @MondayDateFirstValue - 1
SET @FridayDateFirstValue = 7 - @FridayDateFirstValue - 1

SET DATEFIRST 6 -- notice this is saturday

SELECT 
    DATEADD(DAY, 0 - (@@DATEFIRST + @MondayDateFirstValue + DATEPART(dw,@TestDate)) % 7, @TestDate)  as MondayStartOfWeek
    ,DATEADD(DAY, 6 - (@@DATEFIRST + @MondayDateFirstValue + DATEPART(dw,@TestDate)) % 7, @TestDate) as MondayEndOfWeek
   ,DATEADD(DAY, 0 - (@@DATEFIRST + @FridayDateFirstValue + DATEPART(dw,@TestDate)) % 7, @TestDate)  as FridayStartOfWeek
    ,DATEADD(DAY, 6 - (@@DATEFIRST + @FridayDateFirstValue + DATEPART(dw,@TestDate)) % 7, @TestDate) as FridayEndOfWeek


SET DATEFIRST 2 --notice this is tuesday

SELECT 
    DATEADD(DAY, 0 - (@@DATEFIRST + @MondayDateFirstValue + DATEPART(dw,@TestDate)) % 7, @TestDate)  as MondayStartOfWeek
    ,DATEADD(DAY, 6 - (@@DATEFIRST + @MondayDateFirstValue + DATEPART(dw,@TestDate)) % 7, @TestDate) as MondayEndOfWeek
   ,DATEADD(DAY, 0 - (@@DATEFIRST + @FridayDateFirstValue + DATEPART(dw,@TestDate)) % 7, @TestDate)  as FridayStartOfWeek
    ,DATEADD(DAY, 6 - (@@DATEFIRST + @FridayDateFirstValue + DATEPART(dw,@TestDate)) % 7, @TestDate) as FridayEndOfWeek

This method would be agnostic of the DATEFIRST Setting which is what I needed as I am building out a date dimension with multiple week methods included.

Answer 5

Let us break the problem down to two parts:

1) Determine the day of week

The DATEPART(dw, ...) returns a number, 1...7, relative to DATEFIRST setting (docs). The following table summarizes the possible values:

                                                   @@DATEFIRST
+------------------------------------+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
|                                    |  1  |  2  |  3  |  4  |  5  |  6  |  7  | DOW |
+------------------------------------+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
|  DATEPART(dw, /*Mon*/ '20010101')  |  1  |  7  |  6  |  5  |  4  |  3  |  2  |  1  |
|  DATEPART(dw, /*Tue*/ '20010102')  |  2  |  1  |  7  |  6  |  5  |  4  |  3  |  2  |
|  DATEPART(dw, /*Wed*/ '20010103')  |  3  |  2  |  1  |  7  |  6  |  5  |  4  |  3  |
|  DATEPART(dw, /*Thu*/ '20010104')  |  4  |  3  |  2  |  1  |  7  |  6  |  5  |  4  |
|  DATEPART(dw, /*Fri*/ '20010105')  |  5  |  4  |  3  |  2  |  1  |  7  |  6  |  5  |
|  DATEPART(dw, /*Sat*/ '20010106')  |  6  |  5  |  4  |  3  |  2  |  1  |  7  |  6  |
|  DATEPART(dw, /*Sun*/ '20010107')  |  7  |  6  |  5  |  4  |  3  |  2  |  1  |  7  |
+------------------------------------+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+

The last column contains the ideal day-of-week value for Monday to Sunday weeks*. By just looking at the chart we come up with the following equation:

(@@DATEFIRST + DATEPART(dw, SomeDate) - 1 - 1) % 7 + 1

2) Calculate the Monday and Sunday for given date

This is trivial thanks to the day-of-week value. Here is an example:

WITH TestData(SomeDate) AS (
    SELECT CAST('20001225' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20001226' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20001227' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20001228' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20001229' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20001230' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20001231' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010101' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010102' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010103' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010104' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010105' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010106' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010107' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010108' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010109' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010110' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010111' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010112' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010113' AS DATETIME) UNION ALL
    SELECT CAST('20010114' AS DATETIME)
), TestDataPlusDOW AS (
    SELECT SomeDate, (@@DATEFIRST + DATEPART(dw, SomeDate) - 1 - 1) % 7 + 1 AS DOW
    FROM TestData
)
SELECT
    FORMAT(SomeDate,                            'ffffd yyyy-MM-dd') AS SomeDate,
    FORMAT(DATEADD(dd, -DOW + 1, SomeDate),     'ffffd yyyy-MM-dd') AS [Monday],
    FORMAT(DATEADD(dd, -DOW + 1 + 6, SomeDate), 'ffffd yyyy-MM-dd') AS [Sunday]
FROM TestDataPlusDOW

Output:

_{* For Sunday to Saturday weeks you need to adjust the equation just a little, like add 1 somewhere.}

Answer 6

Not sure how useful this is, but I ended up here from looking for a solution on Netezza SQL and couldn't find one on stack overflow.

For IBM netezza you would use something (for week start mon, week end sun) like:

select next_day (WeddingDate, 'SUN') -6 as WeekStart,

next_day (WeddingDate, 'SUN') as WeekEnd
