mysql - Can SQL query do this? -
i have table "audit" "description" column, "record_id" column , "record_date" column. want select records description matches 1 of 2 possible strings (say, "new%" or "arch%") record_id in each of 2 matches each other. need calculate difference in days between record_date of each other.
for instance, table may contain:
id description record_id record_date 1 new sub 1000 04/14/13 2 mod 1000 04/14/13 3 archived 1000 04/15/13 4 new sub 1001 04/13/13
i want select rows 1 , 3 , calculate number of days between 4/15 , 4/14 determine how long took go new archived record (1000). both new , archived entry must present record counted (i don't care ones haven't been archived). make sense , possible calculate in sql query? don't know beyond basic sql.
i using mysql workbench this.
the following untested, should work asuming given record_id
can show once "new sub" , "archived"
select n.id new_id ,a.id archive_id ,record_id ,n.record_date new_date ,a.record_date archive_date ,datediff(a.record_date, n.record_date) days_between audit n join audit using(record_id) n.description = 'new sub' , a.description = 'archieved';
i changed or and, because thought wanted nr of days between records archived.
