I am trying to create a query that will use a range to pull the data.
In doing the my field is an integer field (int). The int field is used as a time/period field (2010 = year and 26 = the 26th week) which means I have a maximum number I can use in this field (ie "52"). Can you tell me how to make this field have a max and then cross over into the previous year?
I am currently like so:
SELECT MITMAS.MMITNO, MITBAL.MBODDT, MITBAL.MBSSQT, MITSTA.MHUSQT, MITSTA.MHSOQT, MITSTA.MHCYP6,(MITSTA.MHUSQT+MITSTA.MHSOQT) as usage
FROM (M3DJDPRD.MVXJDTA.MITBAL INNER JOIN M3DJDPRD.MVXJDTA.MITMAS ON MITBAL.MBITNO=MITMAS.MMITNO) INNER JOIN M3DJDPRD.MVXJDTA.MITSTA
ON MITMAS.MMITNO=MITSTA.MHITNO
WHERE MITSTA.MHCYP6 between 201026 and 201042 AND MITBAL.MBSSQT>=1 and (MITSTA.MHUSQT+MITSTA.MHSOQT) <= 0
ORDER BY MITMAS.MMITNO

My Ultimate goal is to have a report run automatically every qtr with the date from current period back two qtrs.

If you want to provide DDL, DML and expected output, we can probably help you more. Here is a link for how to post that:

If you have Date columns, you can use date math to do that. Something like:
SELECT DATEADD(QUARTER, DATEDIFF(QUARTER, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP) - 2, 0)
