YEAR (SSIS Expression)
Returns an integer that represents the year datepart of a date.
Syntax
YEAR(date)
Arguments
- date
Is a date in any date format.
Result Types
DT_I4
Remarks
YEAR returns a null result if the argument is null.
A date literal must be explicitly cast to one of the date data types. For more information, see Integration Services Data Types.
Note
The expression fails to validate when a date literal is explicitly cast to one of these date data types: DT_DBTIMESTAMPOFFSET and DT_DBTIMESTAMP2.
Using the YEAR function is briefer but equivalent to using the DATEPART("Year", date) function.
Examples
This example returns the number of the year in a date literal. If the date is in mm/dd/yyyy format, this example returns "2002".
YEAR((DT_DBTIMESTAMP)"11/23/2002")
This example returns the integer that represents the year in the ModifiedDate column.
YEAR(ModifiedDate)
This example returns the integer that represents the year of the current date.
