Different Date Calculations in SSRS

Apr 14 2011 5:44PM by Chintak Chhapia   

While designing the reports, we need to set default date values in Date data type parameter.  This question also appears many times in forums. So, I decided to create a comprehensive list of all such expressions.

Now, In expression editor we can use native VB functions for different date calculation and we can also use .Net Properties and Methods for doing the calculation. So, one case use any one based on convenience.

Below table contains list of all such expressions in both VB native function as well as using .NET properties and methods. This is not the only way to find this value, there can be some other expressions for each value. But, I have tried to create a list to be start with and later on I will add more.

 

Using Native VB Functions

Using .Net Properties and Functions

First Date of last month

=DateAdd("m", -1, DateSerial(Year(Now()), Month(Now()), 1))

=Today.AddDays(1- Today.Day).AddMonths(-1)

Last date of last month

=DateAdd("d", -1, DateSerial(Year(Now()), Month(Now()), 1))

=Today.AddDays(-1.0 * Today.Day)

First date of current month

=DateSerial(Year(Now()), Month(Now()), 1)

=Today.AddDays(1 - Today.Day)

Last date of current month

=DateAdd("d",-1,(DateAdd("m", 1, DateSerial(Year(Now()), Month(Now()), 1))))

=Today.AddDays(-1 * Today.Day).AddMonths(1)

Yesterday's date 

=DateAdd("d", -1, Today)

=Today.AddDays(-1)

Tomorrow's date 

=DateAdd("d", 1, Today)

=Today.AddDays(1)

* Monday of current week

=DateAdd("d", 2 - DatePart("w",Today) , Today)

=Today.AddDays(1- Today.DayOfWeek)

* Friday current week

=DateAdd("d", 6 - DatePart("w",Today) , Today)

=Today.AddDays(5- Today.DayOfWeek)

First day of current year

=DateSerial(Year(Now()), 1, 1)

=Today.AddDays(1-  Today.DayOfYear)

Last day of current year

=DateSerial(Year(Now()), 12, 31)

=Today.AddDays(-1 *  Today.DayOfYear).AddYears(1)

First day of current quarter

=DateSerial(Year(Now()), (3*DatePart("q",Now()))-2, 1)

=Today.AddDays(1-  Today.DayOfYear).AddMonths((3 * (((Today.Month-1) \ 3) + 1) ) -3)

Last day of current quarter

=DateAdd("d",-1,DateAdd("q",1,DateSerial(Year(Now()), (3*DatePart("q",Now()))-2, 1)))

=Today.AddDays(1-  Today.DayOfYear).AddMonths((3 * (((Today.Month-1) \ 3) + 1) )).AddDays(-1)

 * Week is considered to start on Sunday, need to change expression if need to change week start date
