So what I'm looking to do is create a report that shows how many sales a company had on a weekly basis.
So we have a time field called created
that looks like this:
2016-04-06 20:58:06 UTC
This field represents when the sale takes place.
Now lets say I wanted to create a report that gives you how many sales you had on a weekly basis. So the above example will fall into something like Week of 2016-04-03
(it doesn't have to exactly say that, I'm just going for the simplest way to do this)
Anyone have any advice? I imagine it involves using the UTEC_TO_xxxxxx
functions.
you can use WEEK() function - it gives you week number
SELECT WEEK('2016-04-06 20:58:06 UTC')
if you need first day of the week - you can try something like
STRFTIME_UTC_USEC((UTC_USEC_TO_WEEK(TIMESTAMP_TO_USEC(TIMESTAMP('2016-05-02 20:58:06 UTC')), 0)),'%Y-%m-%d')
