How do I add one day to a date in SQL?

SQL Server DATEADD() Function The DATEADD() function adds a time/date interval to a date and then returns the date.

How do I automatically insert date in MySQL?

You can use now() with default auto fill and current date and time for this. Later, you can extract the date part using date() function. Let us set the default value with some date.

How do I subtract one day from a date in MySQL?

To get yesterday's date, you need to subtract one day from today's date. Use CURDATE() to get today's date. In MySQL, you can subtract any date interval using the DATE_SUB() function. Here, since you need to subtract one day, you use DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 1 DAY) to get yesterday's date.


You can use the DATE_ADD() function:

... WHERE DATE(DATE_ADD(eventdate, INTERVAL -1 DAY)) = CURRENT_DATE

It can also be used in the SELECT statement:

SELECT DATE_ADD('2010-05-11', INTERVAL 1 DAY) AS Tomorrow;
+------------+
| Tomorrow   |
+------------+
| 2010-05-12 |
+------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

Have a go with this, as this is how I would do it :)

SELECT * 
FROM fab_scheduler
WHERE custid = '123456'
AND CURDATE() = DATE(DATE_ADD(eventdate, INTERVAL 1 DAY))

It`s possible to use MySQL specific syntax sugar:

SELECT ... date_field + INTERVAL 1 DAY

Looks much more pretty instead of DATE_ADD function


If you are able to use NOW() this would be simplest form:

SELECT * FROM `fab_scheduler` WHERE eventdate>=(NOW() - INTERVAL 1 DAY)) AND eventdate<NOW() ORDER BY eventdate DESC;

With MySQL 5.6+ query abowe should do. Depending on sql server, You may be required to use CURRDATE() instead of NOW() - which is alias for DATE(NOW()) and will return only date part of datetime data type;
