Question

I have a table tblTimesheet in which I store user timing hours, like this:

Hours
4.01
3.44
0.05
0.04
2.40

What I want is some of these time periods I am using this

select sum(hours) from tbltimesheets
where workDate='2012-08-30 00:00:00.000' and taskid in (86,3,34)

but it’s giving me 9.94, and I want to get it like 10.34; the datatype is decimal of this field.

Answer 1

How about something like

DECLARE @Table TABLE(
        Hrs FLOAT
)
INSERT INTO @Table SELECT 4.01 
INSERT INTO @Table SELECT 3.44 
INSERT INTO @Table SELECT 0.05 
INSERT INTO @Table SELECT 0.04 
INSERT INTO @Table SELECT 2.40

;WITH Vals AS (
        SELECT  SUM(FLOOR(Hrs)) NumHrs,
                SUM((Hrs - FLOOR(Hrs)) * 100) NumMins 
        FROM    @Table
)
SELECT  NumHrs + FLOOR(NumMins / 60) + ((NumMins / 60 - FLOOR(NumMins / 60)) * 60 / 100)
FROM    Vals
