How to get current quarter and prior quarter values

Transact-SQL

Hi Members,
Hope all is well. I am trying to build SQL query which pulls order value of a customer and the order value of same quarter but of prior year from the same customer. Can someone please explain the SQL format with an example I should follow?

For example- There are three tables i.e. A(customer data), B(order quantity), C (order amount) Each table has a common key 'keycutomer'-serial number of each customer.

Now I want to pull what is the order value and quantity of Mr. A in 4Q2017 and 4Q2016.

If you want to pull for quarters, you're gonna a date column somewhere :grin:

yeah...let's assume all other required columns are there in tables.

Please post consumable sample data

Not sure if this is what your looking for?

To get the first day of the current quarter:
SELECT DATEADD(qq, DATEDIFF(qq, 0, GETDATE()), 0)

To get the last day of the current quarter:
SELECT DATEADD (dd, -1, DATEADD(qq, DATEDIFF(qq, 0, GETDATE()) +1, 0))

To get the first day of the previous quarter
SELECT DATEADD(qq, DATEDIFF(qq, 0, GETDATE()) - 1, 0)
