Tenure Calculation with TeraData SQL

Question

• List item

I have been having the hardest time converting this T-SQL to TeraData SQL. Can someone assist me with this. I would really appriecate it. I am not understanding the convertion of dates with teradata. I am super confused.

A fiscal Month example: Starts: 2020-22-01 - Ends: 2020-21-01 This query delivers a data result within the fiscal month of with they started there position. Example: 8/21/2019

   ,CASE WHEN DAY(POSITION_START_DT) BETWEEN 22 AND 31 
         THEN CAST(
               CONCAT(
               CAST(YEAR(POSITION_START_DT)AS VARCHAR(4)),
               CASE WHEN LEN(MONTH(POSITION_START_DT)) = 1 THEN '-0' ELSE '-'END,
               CAST(MONTH(POSITION_START_DT)AS VARCHAR(2)),
               '-21') 
               AS date)

          WHEN DAY(POSITION_START_DT) BETWEEN 1 AND 6 
          THEN CAST(
               CONCAT(
               CAST(YEAR(DATEADD(MONTH,-1,POSITION_START_DT))AS VARCHAR(4)),
               CASE WHEN LEN(MONTH(DATEADD(MONTH,-1,POSITION_START_DT))) = 1 THEN '-0' ELSE '-'END,
               CAST(MONTH(DATEADD(MONTH,-1,POSITION_START_DT))AS VARCHAR(2)),
               '-21') 
           AS date) 

         ELSE CAST(
               CONCAT(
                   CAST(YEAR(DATEADD(MONTH,0,POSITION_START_DT))AS VARCHAR(4)),
                   CASE WHEN LEN(MONTH(DATEADD(MONTH,0,POSITION_START_DT))) = 1 THEN '-0' ELSE '-'END,
                   CAST(MONTH(DATEADD(MONTH,0,POSITION_START_DT))AS VARCHAR(2)),
                   '-21')
               AS date) END AS FISCAL_START_MONTH_INSALES

Fiscal Tenure Bucket uses "Fiscal_Start_Month_insales field and groups the employee in a bucket. Buckets: - 0_3_MONTHS - 4_6_MONTHS - 7_12_MONTHS - 13_24_MONTHS - 25_PLUS_MONTHS - ELSE Unknown

    ,CASE  WHEN DATEDIFF(Day,FiscalStartMonthInSales,CURRENT_DATE)/30  >= 25 THEN '25_PLUS_MONTHS'
                       WHEN DATEDIFF(Day,FiscalStartMonthInSales,CURRENT_DATE)/30  BETWEEN 13 AND 24 THEN '13_24_MONTHS'
                       WHEN DATEDIFF(Day,FiscalStartMonthInSales,CURRENT_DATE)/30  BETWEEN 7 AND 12 THEN '7_12_MONTHS'
                       WHEN DATEDIFF(Day,FiscalStartMonthInSales,CURRENT_DATE)/30  BETWEEN 4 AND 6 THEN '4_6_MONTHS'
                       WHEN DATEDIFF(Day,FiscalStartMonthInSales,CURRENT_DATE)/30  BETWEEN 0 AND 3 THEN '0_3_MONTHS'
                       ELSE 'Unknown' END as PositionTenureBucket

Just converting functions (and combining the two cases that seem to give identical results), it seems the first part could be

CASE WHEN EXTRACT(DAY FROM POSITION_START_DT) BETWEEN 1 AND 6
     THEN CAST(CAST(CAST(ADD_MONTHS(POSITION_START_DT,-1) AS FORMAT 'YYYY-MM') AS VARCHAR(7))||'-21' AS DATE FORMAT 'YYYY-MM-DD')
     ELSE CAST(CAST(CAST(POSITION_START_DT AS FORMAT 'YYYY-MM') AS VARCHAR(7))||'-21' AS DATE FORMAT 'YYYY-MM-DD')
     END AS FISCAL_START_MONTH_INSALES

And perhaps the second part is just

 ,CASE WHEN (CURRENT_DATE-FiscalStartMonthInSales)/30  >= 25 THEN '25_PLUS_MONTHS'
       WHEN (CURRENT_DATE-FiscalStartMonthInSales)/30   BETWEEN 13 AND 24 THEN '13_24_MONTHS'
       WHEN (CURRENT_DATE-FiscalStartMonthInSales)/30   BETWEEN 7 AND 12 THEN '7_12_MONTHS'
       WHEN (CURRENT_DATE-FiscalStartMonthInSales)/30   BETWEEN 4 AND 6 THEN '4_6_MONTHS'
       WHEN (CURRENT_DATE-FiscalStartMonthInSales)/30   BETWEEN 0 AND 3 THEN '0_3_MONTHS'
       ELSE 'Unknown' END as PositionTenureBucket

Simplifying Fred's first part to:

Cast(To_Char(CASE WHEN Extract(DAY From POSITION_START_DT) BETWEEN 1 AND 6 
                  THEN Add_Months(POSITION_START_DT,-1)
                  ELSE POSITION_START_DT
             END, 'yyyy-mm') || '-21' AS DATE) 

And simplifying the logic to subtract 6 days, get the 1st of the month and add 20 days :

Trunc(POSITION_START_DT - 6, 'mon') + 20
