Group by 3-month period

I created a select in Oracle which returns the number of overnight stays per month (if any) for flight crew:

CRE_ALPHA  CRE_NAME  MONTH  YEAR  NIGHT_STOPS  
---------- --------- ------ ----- ------------
AAC        Adinda    6      2013  8  
AAC        Adinda    7      2013  9  
AAC        Adinda    8      2013  2  
AAC        Adinda    9      2013  7  
AAC        Adinda    10     2013  4  
CCU        Cristiano 6      2013  5  
CCU        Cristiano 7      2013  6  
CCU        Cristiano 8      2013  3  
CCU        Cristiano 9      2013  11
CVA        Carine    7      2013  9
CVA        Carine    9      2013  10
CVA        Carine    10     2013  10

Now, there is a limit of 18 night stops on a 3-month basis. So I would like to group by any 3 succeeding months having > 18 night stops. The result should be something like this:

CRE_ALPHA  CRE_NAME  TIMESPAN        NIGHT_STOPS
---------- --------- --------------- ------------
AAC        Adinda    6/2013-8/2013   19
AAC        Adinda    7/2013-9/2013   18
CCU        Cristiano 7/2013-9/2013   20
CVA        Carine    7/2013-9/2013   19
CVA        Carine    8/2013-10/2013  20

Note that if there are zero night stops for a month, there is no row, but I would like a result for 3 months including the one with 0.

Can anybody help?

If it can help, the full select below:


ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT = 'DD-MM-YYYY hh24:mi:ss';
SELECT cre_id, cre_alpha, cre_first_name, cre_last_name, Maand, Jaar, count(*) "Night stops"

  (SELECT cre_id, cre_alpha, cre_first_name, cre_last_name, pos_crb_iata_code, dst, det, dsa, (dst - Prev_end_time) * 1440 stop_over, EXTRACT(MONTH FROM dst) Maand, EXTRACT(YEAR FROM dst) Jaar
  FROM
    (SELECT cre_id, cre_alpha, cre_first_name, cre_last_name, pos_crb_iata_code, dst, dsa, det, dea, LAG(det) OVER (ORDER BY cre_alpha, dst) Prev_end_time
    FROM
      (SELECT cre_id, cre_alpha, cre_first_name, cre_last_name, pos_crb_iata_code,
      COALESCE(flt_mvt_db, flt_com_dep_blk, pog_std, gco_start, oth_std, rsv_std) as dst,

      COALESCE(flt_apt_iata_code_arr, pog_apt_iata_code_to, gco_apt_iata_code, rsv_apt_iata_code) as dea
      FROM
        (SELECT DISTINCT cre_id, cre_alpha, cre_first_name, cre_last_name, pos_crb_iata_code
        FROM master.crews, master.assignments, master.positions
        WHERE asg_pos_id = pos_id AND asg_cre_id = cre_id AND asg_d_type <> 'LEA' 
        AND asg_start_time BETWEEN '01-JUN-2013' AND '01-NOV-2013'
        ORDER BY cre_alpha) tab1, master.assignments
      FULL OUTER JOIN master.flights ON master.assignments.asg_flt_id = master.flights.flt_id
      FULL OUTER JOIN master.positionings ON master.assignments.asg_pog_id = master.positionings.pog_id

      FULL OUTER JOIN master.reserves ON master.assignments.asg_rsv_id = master.reserves.rsv_id
      WHERE asg_d_type <> 'LEA' AND asg_d_type <> 'STP' AND asg_cre_id = tab1.cre_id
      AND asg_start_time BETWEEN '01-JUN-2013' AND '02-NOV-2013' AND asg_actif = 'Y'
      ORDER BY cre_alpha, asg_start_time)
    )
  WHERE pos_crb_iata_code <> dsa
  AND EXTRACT(DAY FROM dst) - EXTRACT(DAY FROM Prev_end_time) >= 1)
WHERE stop_over > 240
GROUP BY cre_id, cre_alpha, cre_first_name, cre_last_name, Maand, Jaar
ORDER BY cre_alpha;

You can use analytical functions to achieve what you want. Building on top of your current query, it goes like this:

select *
from (
    select cre_alpha, cre_name,
    month month_end, year year_end,
    sum(night_stops) over (
        partition by cre_alpha, cre_name
        order by year * 12 + month
        range between 2 preceding and current row
    ) as night_stops
    from (
      ... your current query ...
    ) t
) m
where night_stops >= 18

Note:

  • The query returns the end (year/month) of the 3 month period. You'll have to extend it to print the start of the period as well.
  • I've used the condition >= 18 to match your output even though the text says it's > 18.
  • The windowing clause range between 2 preceding and current row together with the order by clause year * 12 + month make sure a three month window is taken and not just three consecutive rows. This is relevant if you have missing month in your base query.

Have fun.
