Question

I am trying to create a WHERE clause that says

WHERE column_1 = TRIM(LEADING '20' FROM(DATEPART(year, GETDATE()))) 

Basically column_1 contains the fiscal year but the fiscal year is in the database as 8 or 9 not 2008 or 2009.

So I need to figure a way to trim off at least the '20' so that the query will run correctly… The more dynamic the better because I need to set this up to run in an SSIS pkg and the less hard coding the better.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance! Jon

Answer 1

depending on the datatype of the column_1

print right(datepart(year,getdate()),2) –string with leading zero print convert(int,right(datepart(year,getdate()),2))–int

EDIT

based on @Richard’s answer
print datepart(year,getdate()) % 100
