CONVERT function from SQL Server to REDSHIFT
This is the code from SQL Server; I need to convert it into redshift
convert(decimal, LEFT(convert(varchar, dateadd(month, 3, convert(datetime, convert(varchar, Column_name))), 112), 6))
Any help?

You can convert it by replacing the convert(varchar
function with TO_CHAR
and specifying the output format as'YYYMMDD'
:
-- SQL Server original
convert(decimal, LEFT(convert(varchar, dateadd(month, 3, convert(datetime, convert(varchar, Column_name))), 112 ), 6))
-- Redshift version
convert(decimal, LEFT( TO_CHAR( dateadd(month, 3, convert(datetime, convert(varchar, '20190102'))), 'YYYMMDD'), 6))
-- Output: 19040
The original uses CONVERT
with the SQL Server specific 3rd parameter 112
to convert the date to the format of YYYYMMDD
. The Redshift equivalent is TO_CHAR
.
