How to use DATEDIFF to return year, month and day?

How can I use DATEDIFF to return the difference between two dates in years, months and days in SQL Server 2005

DATEDIFF (date , date)

How to result that: 2 year 3 month 10 day

Can anyone complete this t-sql?

ALTER FUNCTION [dbo].[gatYMD](@dstart VARCHAR(50), @dend VARCHAR(50))
RETURNS VARCHAR(50) AS
BEGIN
    DECLARE @yy INT
    DECLARE @mm INT
    DECLARE @getmm INT
    DECLARE @dd INT

    SET @yy = DATEDIFF(yy, @dstart, @dend)
    SET @mm = DATEDIFF(mm, @dstart, @dend)
    SET @dd = DATEDIFF(dd, @dstart, @dend)
    SET @getmm = ABS(DATEDIFF(mm, DATEADD(yy, @yy, @dstart), @dend))

    RETURN (
        Convert(varchar(10),@yy) + 'year' + Convert(varchar(10),@mm) + 'month'  + Convert(varc开发者_如何学编程har(10),@dd) + 'day'
        )
END


Create this function, it will give exact date difference like year months days

    Create function get_Exact_Date_diff(@date smalldatetime,@date2 smalldatetime)
 returns varchar(50)

    as

    begin

    declare @date3 smalldatetime

    Declare @month int,@year int,@day int

     if @date>@date2
     begin
     set @date3=@date2
     set @date2=@date
     set @date=@date3
     end



    SELECT @month=datediff (MONTH,@date,@date2)

    if dateadd(month,@month,@date) >@date2
    begin
    set @month=@month-1
    end
    set @day=DATEDIFF(day,dateadd(month,@month,@date),@date2)

    set @year=@month/12
    set @month=@month % 12

    return (case when @year=0 then '' when @year=1 then convert(varchar(50),@year ) + ' year ' when @year>1 then convert(varchar(50),@year ) + ' years ' end)
    + (case when @month=0 then '' when @month=1 then convert(varchar(50),@month ) + ' month ' when @month>1 then convert(varchar(50),@month ) + ' months ' end)
    + (case when @day=0 then '' when @day=1 then convert(varchar(50),@day ) + ' day ' when @day>1 then convert(varchar(50),@day ) + ' days ' end)

    end


Here's my solution to Eric's function:

DECLARE @getmm INT
DECLARE @getdd INT

SET @yy = DATEDIFF(yy, @dstart, @dend)
SET @mm = DATEDIFF(mm, @dstart, @dend)
SET @dd = DATEDIFF(dd, @dstart, @dend)
SET @getmm = ABS(DATEDIFF(mm, DATEADD(yy, @yy, @dstart), @dend))
SET @getdd = ABS(DATEDIFF(dd, DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(mm, DATEADD(yy, @yy, @dstart), @dend), DATEADD(yy, @yy, @dstart)), @dend))

RETURN (
  Convert(varchar(10),@yy) + 'year' + Convert(varchar(10),@getmm) + 'month'  + Convert(varchar(10),@getdd) + 'day'
)

Good call on the use of ABS to handle if the start date is after the end date.


This:

WITH ex_table AS (
  SELECT '2007-01-01' 'birthdatetime',
         '2009-03-29' 'visitdatetime')
SELECT CAST(DATEDIFF(yy, t.birthdatetime, t.visitdatetime) AS varchar(4)) +' year '+
       CAST(DATEDIFF(mm, DATEADD(yy, DATEDIFF(yy, t.birthdatetime, t.visitdatetime), t.birthdatetime), t.visitdatetime) AS varchar(2)) +' month '+
       CAST(DATEDIFF(dd, DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(mm, DATEADD(yy, DATEDIFF(yy, t.birthdatetime, t.visitdatetime), t.birthdatetime), t.visitdatetime), DATEADD(yy, DATEDIFF(yy, t.birthdatetime, t.visitdatetime), t.birthdatetime)), t.visitdatetime) AS varchar(2)) +' day' AS result
  FROM ex_table t

..or non-CTE using for SQL Server 2000 and prior:

SELECT CAST(DATEDIFF(yy, t.birthdatetime, t.visitdatetime) AS varchar(4)) +' year '+
       CAST(DATEDIFF(mm, DATEADD(yy, DATEDIFF(yy, t.birthdatetime, t.visitdatetime), t.birthdatetime), t.visitdatetime) AS varchar(2)) +' month '+
       CAST(DATEDIFF(dd, DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(mm, DATEADD(yy, DATEDIFF(yy, t.birthdatetime, t.visitdatetime), t.birthdatetime), t.visitdatetime), DATEADD(yy, DATEDIFF(yy, t.birthdatetime, t.visitdatetime), t.birthdatetime)), t.visitdatetime) AS varchar(2)) +' day' AS result
  FROM (SELECT '2007-01-01' 'birthdatetime',
         '2009-03-29' 'visitdatetime') t

...will return:

result
----------------------
2 year 2 month 28 day

Reference: DATEDIFF


It works for some of the situations but when you are subtracting dates like 2007-10-15 (DateHired) from 2011-01-13 (dateterminated) it gives you a negative number when the abs isn't around it but putting the abs around doesn't fix it either because then the year and month figure are incorrect.


I know there are a few answers already here, but I thought I'd add what I came up with as (at least to me) it seems very simple to follow:

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fn_DateDiff_YMDMHS
(   
    @Startdate as datetime2(0),
    @Enddate as datetime2(0)
)
RETURNS TABLE 
AS
RETURN 
(
    select 
        TotalYears [Years],
        datediff(month, dateadd(Year, TotalYears, @Startdate), @Enddate) Months,
        datediff(day, dateadd(month, TotalMonths, @Startdate), @Enddate) [Days],
        datediff(hour, dateadd(day, TotalDays, @Startdate), @Enddate) [Hours],
        datediff(minute, dateadd(hour, TotalHours, @Startdate), @Enddate) [Minutes],
        datediff(second, dateadd(minute, TotalMinutes, @Startdate), @Enddate) [Seconds]
    from (
    select 
        datediff(SECOND, @Startdate, @Enddate) TotalSeconds,
        datediff(minute, @Startdate, @Enddate) TotalMinutes,
        datediff(hour, @Startdate, @Enddate) TotalHours,
        datediff(day, @Startdate, @Enddate) TotalDays,
        datediff(month, @Startdate, @Enddate) TotalMonths,
        datediff(year, @Startdate, @Enddate) TotalYears) DateDiffs
    )

Then when you call with:

select * from dbo.fn_DateDiff_YMDMHS('1900-01-01 00:00:00', '1910-10-05 03:01:02')

You'll get this returned:

Years   Months  Days    Hours   Minutes Seconds
10      9       4       3       1       2

Obviously you could change this to a formatted output and have a scalar variable instead, but I'll leave that to you :-)

EDIT:

I've ended up needing to also do a time ago function to return a format like "5 years and 2 days ago"

CREATE FUNCTION fn_DateDiff_YMDMHS_String
(
    @StartDate datetime2(0),
    @EndDate datetime2(0),
    @OutputYears bit = 1,
    @OutputMonths bit = 1,
    @OutputDays bit = 1,
    @OutputHours bit = 0,
    @OutputMinutes bit = 0,
    @OutputSeconds bit = 0,
    @OutputSuffix bit = 0
)
RETURNS varchar(256)
AS
BEGIN
    DECLARE @Output varchar(256) = ''
    declare @Years int, @Months int, @Days int, @Hours int, @Minutes int, @Seconds int

    select 
        @Years = case when @OutputYears = 1 then Years else 0 end,
        @Months = case when @OutputMonths = 1 then Months else 0 end,
        @Days = case when @OutputDays = 1 then Days else 0 end,
        @Hours = case when @OutputHours = 1 then Hours else 0 end,
        @Minutes = case when @OutputMinutes = 1 then Minutes else 0 end,
        @Seconds = case when @OutputSeconds = 1 then Seconds else 0 end 
    from dbo.fn_DateDiff_YMDMHS(@StartDate, @EndDate)

    declare @and varchar(5) = ''
    if @OutputYears = 1 and @Years > 0 
    begin
        set @Output = @Output + cast(@Years as varchar(4)) + ' year' 
        if @Years > 1 set @Output = @Output + 's ' else set @Output = @Output + ' '
        if @Months > 0 and @Days + @Hours + @Minutes + @Seconds = 0 set @and = 'and '
    end
    if @OutputMonths = 1 and @Months > 0 
    begin
        set @Output = @Output + @and + cast(@Months as varchar(2)) + ' month'
        if @Months > 1 set @Output = @Output + 's ' else set @Output = @Output + ' '
        if @Days > 0 and @Hours + @Minutes + @Seconds = 0 set @and = 'and '
    end
    if @OutputDays = 1 and @Days > 0 
    begin
        set @Output = @Output + @and + cast(@Days as varchar(2)) + ' day'
        if @Days > 1 set @Output = @Output + 's ' else set @Output = @Output + ' '
        if @Hours > 0 and @Minutes + @Seconds = 0 set @and = 'and '
    end
    if @OutputHours = 1 and @Hours > 0 
    begin
        set @Output = @Output + @and + cast(@Hours as varchar(2)) + ' hour'
        if @Hours > 1 set @Output = @Output + 's ' else set @Output = @Output + ' '
        if @Minutes > 0 and @Seconds = 0 set @and = 'and '
    end
    if @OutputMinutes = 1 and @Minutes > 0 
    begin
        set @Output = @Output + @and + cast(@Minutes as varchar(2)) + ' minute'
        if @Minutes > 1 set @Output = @Output + 's ' else set @Output = @Output + ' '
        if @Seconds > 0 set @and = 'and '
    end
    if @OutputSeconds = 1 and @Seconds > 0 
    begin
        set @Output = @Output + @and + cast(@Seconds as varchar(2)) + ' second'
        if @Seconds > 1 set @Output = @Output + 's ' else set @Output = @Output + ' '
    end

    if @OutputSuffix = 1
    begin
        if @StartDate < @EndDate
        begin
            set @Output = @Output + 'ago'
        end
        else
        begin
            set @Output = 'in ' + @Output
        end
    end

    RETURN @Output

END

Here are 2 examples

select dbo.fn_DateDiff_YMDMHS_String('2000-01-01 00:00:00', '2007-09-19 14:39:53', 1, 1, 1, 1,1,1, 1)
7 years 8 months 18 days 8 hours 39 minutes and 53 seconds ago

and

select dbo.fn_DateDiff_YMDMHS_String('2000-01-01 00:00:00', '2007-09-19 14:39:53', 1, 1, 1, 0,0,0, 1)
7 years 8 months and 18 days ago

I hope this is of use to someone in the future anyway as I couldn't find much on anything like this when searching (could just be one of those days though) I'm open to improvements as I know I'm not always the most compact or fastest code programmer :-)

                       WHEN DATEPART(day, @FromDate) > DATEPART(day, @ToDate) THEN DATEDIFF(month, @FromDate, @ToDate) - 1
                       ELSE DATEDIFF(month, @FromDate, @ToDate)

How to use DATEDIFF to return year, month and day?


TL;DR approximates years & months without having to create a function.


I found this question searching for "get years months from datediff". I was looking for something a bit quicker (and yeah, probably dirtier) than the above function-creating solutions.

I came up with the following in-line sql which approximates the years and months. Sufficient for my own purposes, which is getting a count of events grouped by user's rough age at the time.

select cast(datediff(event_datetime, dateofbirth)/365.25 as unsigned) as years, 
       cast((mod(datediff(event_datetime, dateofbirth),365.25))/30.4375 as unsigned) as months
from tablename
;


My answer is a bit different as I'm coming from mysql, so I'm unsure if this function works in sql server. But I'm still leaving it here in case anyone else wants it.

Select TIMESTAMPDIFF(YEAR,'2020-04-01','2022-04-01') AS Years,
TIMESTAMPDIFF(MONTH,'2020-04-01','2022-04-01') AS Months,
TIMESTAMPDIFF(DAY,'2020-04-01','2022-04-01') AS Days;

-- Sometimes this line doesn't work as you may want,
-- For example: 2022-Jan-01 to 2022-Jan-03, if you use DATEDIFF it will count 02 and 03 of the days.
-- Where as TIMESTAMPDIFF counts just the 02 of the days
-- "TIMESTAMPDIFF(DAY,'2020-04-01','2022-04-01') AS Days;"
-- Replace TIMESTAMPDIFF with DATEDIFF and remove "DAY"

The output would look something like this

  Years | Months | Days
    2   |   24   | 730

Hope it helps
