| I need to associate aggregate gross_revenue with calendar year, but do not have a date field that reflects payment dates, just contract periods a start_date and an end_date. The contract periods are typically 1 or 2 years and can start at any time I.e start_date 6/1/2012, end date 5/31/13. I think by finding the number of days that fall in each calendar year and storing in a temp table, I can create a simple formula to associate revenue to each year. Just not sure how to do it, any help would be greatly appreciated. |

That includes sample data and expected output:http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Best+Practices/61537/http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/brettk/archive/2005/05/25/5276.aspxWhat do you want for output given those two dates? |

Even with that, how would you determine what portion of revenue should go to each of the months? is it based on number of days?------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SQL Server MVPhttp://visakhm.blogspot.com/https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs |
