Count records based on past dates

Posted 06-04-2020 03:09 PM (1709 views)

Hello guys!

 

I'm struggling to achieve this, but I can't find the solution.

What I need to do, is to count the records where the inquiry_date is older than the per_obs, for each per_obs, and make it accumulative for each id.
So, it must restart when the ID changes. (the per_obs is set at the beginning of the month):

 

This is the original table:

IDINQUIRY_DATEPERIOD
A9/12/20192019-12
A9/12/20192019-12
A9/12/20192019-12
A4/11/20192019-11
A19/10/20192019-10
A19/10/20192019-10
A8/10/20192019-10
A20/9/20192019-09
A21/8/20192019-08
A21/8/20192019-08
A28/7/20192019-07
A26/7/20192019-07
B23/8/20182018-08
B23/8/20182018-08
B9/8/20182018-08
B13/7/20182018-07
B25/6/20182018-06
B11/5/20182018-05
B18/4/20182018-04

 

This is what I need:

IDINQUIRY_DATEPERIODAccumulative Inquiry dates
A9/12/20192019-129
A9/12/20192019-129
A9/12/20192019-129

B23/8/20182018-083

B25/6/20182018-062
B11/5/20182018-051
B18/4/20182018-040

 

Any help would be awesome, thanks a lot!

Hi Bart!

 

Sorry, PER_OB is the same as PERIOD.

Please explain further the calculations desired.

 

Why is this one a zero

A 28/7/2019 2019-07 0

 

and this one a two?

A 21/8/2019 2019-08 2

Re: Count records based on past dates

Posted 06-04-2020 03:37 PM (1660 views)  |   In reply to PaigeMiller

Paige,

 

The first one is 0 because the ID A doesn't have any inquiry_date older than the PERIOD/PER_OBS. (It has two on the same month, 28/7/2019 and 26/7/2019 , but I don't have to consider inquiry_dates on the same period).

 

Meanwhile, the 2019-08 has two inquiry_dates from the historical data, 28/7/2019 and 26/7/2019, so the counter is marking 2.

 

Thanks!

Again, my initial kudos goes to Krakow and Marcin 🙂 ( to whom and Poland I owe my start 🙂 )Btw @yabwon  My colleagues love your packages albeit they are complaining that it's not accesible in work professional machines. Can you make it secure for us to access and download if you don't mind. I was gonna reach out to you offline for this request
