Get all dates for all date ranges in table using SQL Server
I have table dbo.WorkSchedules(Id, From, To) where I store date ranges for work schedules. I want to create a view that will have all dates for all rows of WorkSchedules. Thanks to this I have 1 view with all dates for all schedules.
On web I only found solutions for 1 row like 2 parameters start and end. My issue is different where I have multiple rows with start and end range.
Example:
WorkSchedules
Id | From | To
---+------------+-----------
1 | 2018-01-01 | 2018-01-05
2 | 2018-01-08 | 2018-01-12
Desired result
1 | 2018-01-01
2 | 2018-01-02
3 | 2018-01-03
4 | 2018-01-04
5 | 2018-01-05
6 | 2018-01-08
7 | 2018-01-09
8 | 2018-01-10
9 | 2018-01-11
10| 2018-01-12

If you are regularly dealing with "jobs" and "schedules" then I propose that you need a permanent calendar table (a table where each row is a unique date). You can create rows for dates dynamically but why do this many times when you can do it once and just re-use?
A calendar table, even of several decades, isn't "big" and when indexed they can be very fast as well. You can also store information about holidays and/or fiscal periods etc.
There are many scripts available to produce these tables, here's an answer with 2 scripts on this site: https://stackoverflow.com/a/5635628/2067753
Assuming you use the second (more comprehensive) script, then you can exclude weekends, or other conditions such as holidays, from query results.
Once you have a permanent Calendar table this style of query may be used:
CREATE TABLE WorkSchedules(
Id INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY
,[From] DATE NOT NULL
,[To] DATE NOT NULL
);
INSERT INTO WorkSchedules(Id,[From],[To]) VALUES (1,'2018-01-01','2018-01-05');
INSERT INTO WorkSchedules(Id,[From],[To]) VALUES (2,'2018-01-12','2018-01-12');
with range as (
select min(ws.[From]) as dt_from, max(ws.[To]) dt_to
from WorkSchedules as ws
)
select c.*
from calendar as c
inner join range on c.date between range.dt_from and range.dt_to
where c.KindOfDay = 'BANKDAY'
order by c.date
and the result looks like this (note: "News Years Day" has been excluded)
Date Year Quarter Month Week Day DayOfYear Weekday Fiscal_Year Fiscal_Quarter Fiscal_Month KindOfDay Description
---- --------------------- ------ --------- ------- ------ ----- ----------- --------- ------------- ---------------- -------------- ----------- -------------
1 02.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 1 2 2 2 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
2 03.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 1 3 3 3 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
3 04.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 1 4 4 4 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
4 05.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 1 5 5 5 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
5 08.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 2 8 8 1 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
6 09.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 2 9 9 2 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
7 10.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 2 10 10 3 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
8 11.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 2 11 11 4 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
9 12.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 2 12 12 5 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
Without the where clause the full range is:
Date Year Quarter Month Week Day DayOfYear Weekday Fiscal_Year Fiscal_Quarter Fiscal_Month KindOfDay Description
---- --------------------- ------ --------- ------- ------ ----- ----------- --------- ------------- ---------------- -------------- ----------- ----------------
1 01.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 1 1 1 1 2018 1 1 HOLIDAY New Year's Day
2 02.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 1 2 2 2 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
3 03.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 1 3 3 3 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
4 04.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 1 4 4 4 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
5 05.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 1 5 5 5 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
6 06.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 1 6 6 6 2018 1 1 SATURDAY NULL
7 07.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 1 7 7 7 2018 1 1 SUNDAY NULL
8 08.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 2 8 8 1 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
9 09.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 2 9 9 2 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
10 10.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 2 10 10 3 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
11 11.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 2 11 11 4 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
12 12.01.2018 00:00:00 2018 1 1 2 12 12 5 2018 1 1 BANKDAY NULL
and weekends and holidays may be excluded using the column KindOfDay
See this as a demonstration (with build of calendar table) here: http://rextester.com/CTSW63441

You would use a recursive CTE:
with dates as (
select from, to, from as date
from WorkSchedules
union all
select from, to, dateadd(day, 1, date)
from dates
where date < to
)
select row_number() over (order by date), date
from dates;
Note that from and to are reserved words in SQL. They are lousy names for identifiers. I have not escaped them because I assume they are not the actual names of the columns.

Ok, I worked this out for you, thinking you mean that you meant 01/08/2018 as a From date in the second row.
/*WorkSchedules
Id| From | To
1 | 2018-01-01 | 2018-01-05
2 | 2018-01-08 | 2018-01-12
*/
--DROP TABLE #WorkSchedules;
CREATE TABLE #WorkSchedules (
ID int,
[DateFrom] DATE,
[DateTo] DATE
)
INSERT INTO #WorkSchedules
SELECT 1, '2018-01-01', '2018-01-05'
UNION
SELECT 2, '2018-01-08', '2018-01-12'
;WITH CTEDATELIMITS AS (
SELECT [DateFrom], [DateTo]
FROM #WorkSchedules
)
,CTEDATES AS
(
SELECT [DateFrom] as [DateResult] FROM CTEDATELIMITS
UNION ALL
SELECT DATEADD(Day, 1, [DateResult]) FROM CTEDATES
JOIN CTEDATELIMITS ON CTEDATES.[DateResult] >= CTEDATELIMITS.[DateFrom]
AND CTEDATES.dateResult < CTEDATELIMITS.[DateTo]
)
SELECT [DateResult] FROM CTEDATES
ORDER BY [DateResult]
