Presage/Internal:Great American Date Codes

Great American [Appetizers] Snacks has unique date codes for their packaging.

The Wahoo Date Code

The Wahoo code is used in both the Nampa and Monroe plants for a number of analyses. For a date of 2017-06-05 00:15:01 (produced on Line 1 in the Nampa plant), the Wahoo Code would display as 'NF057J1'

• The 'N' stands for Nampa. The Monroe plant's initial character is 'M'.
• The 'F' stands for the month of June (controlled by the first of the nested case statement).
• The '05' is the day of the month formatted as a two-digit day using the format '%d'.
• The '7' is the last number of the four-digit year using the RIGHT command to find the first digit on the right of the number, using the format '%y'.
• The 'J' represents the time between midnight and 2 a.m. (controlled by the second of the nested case statement).
• Finally, the '1' indicates the line number within the plant where the product was produced.

The code above references a choice {?Date Code Format} techs select against the {?Check Timestamp} in an analysis. The date format is compared against a code on the product's packaging. This assures the product packaging is labeled properly. An option name must always be preceded by '{?' and followed by '}' to be recognized as an analysis option. [This link https://www.w3schools.com/SQL/func_date_format.asp] offers a list of date formats for MySQL.

Best Before/Meilleur Avant YYYY MO DD + Wahoo

The Nampa plant requested a new date code for a product distributed in Canada. They requested month abbreviations that are not standard to MySQL. Therefore we used a case statement instead of using the date formats. That code looks like the code below. It concatenates 'Best Before/Meilleur Avant ' with the four-digit year, the two-character month (in the first case statment), the two-digit day, and the Wahoo Date Code (above).

For a date of 2017-06-05 00:15:01 (produced on Line 1 in the Nampa plant), the Date Code would display as 'Best Before/Meilleur Avant 2018 JN05 NF057J1'.

(SELECT CASE WHEN {?Retail Date Code Format} = "Best Before/Meilleur Avant YYYY MO DD + Wahoo" THEN

Simplot

As far as I know, the Simplot format is only used in the Nampa plant. It has the format:

PPP MM DD YY L T

• PPP = plant of production
• MMM = Month of production (Alpha)
• DD = Day of Production
• YY = Year of Production
• L = Line of Production
• T = Time Interval of Production

Here is an example of a Simplot date code format when it is filled out with information:

968 JUN 16 17 4 3

(SELECT CASE WHEN {?Date Code Format} = {?Date Code Format} THEN 
	CONCAT('968 ', DATE_FORMAT({?Check Timestamp},'%b %d %y'), ' ', {?Line}, ' ', CASE 
	WHEN DATE_FORMAT({?Check Timestamp},'%T') BETWEEN '05:00:00' AND '07:59:59' THEN '1'
	WHEN DATE_FORMAT({?Check Timestamp},'%T') BETWEEN '08:00:00' AND '09:59:59' THEN '2'
	WHEN DATE_FORMAT({?Check Timestamp},'%T') BETWEEN '10:00:00' AND '11:59:59' THEN '3'
	WHEN DATE_FORMAT({?Check Timestamp},'%T') BETWEEN '12:00:00' AND '13:59:59' THEN '4'
	WHEN DATE_FORMAT({?Check Timestamp},'%T') BETWEEN '14:00:00' AND '15:59:59' THEN '5'
	WHEN DATE_FORMAT({?Check Timestamp},'%T') BETWEEN '16:00:00' AND '17:59:59' THEN '6'
	WHEN DATE_FORMAT({?Check Timestamp},'%T') BETWEEN '18:00:00' AND '19:59:59' THEN '7'
	WHEN DATE_FORMAT({?Check Timestamp},'%T') BETWEEN '20:00:00' AND '21:59:59' THEN '8'
	WHEN DATE_FORMAT({?Check Timestamp},'%T') BETWEEN '22:00:00' AND '23:59:59' THEN '9'
	WHEN DATE_FORMAT({?Check Timestamp},'%T') BETWEEN '00:00:00' AND '01:59:59' THEN '10'
	WHEN DATE_FORMAT({?Check Timestamp},'%T') BETWEEN '02:00:00' AND '03:59:59' THEN '11'
	WHEN DATE_FORMAT({?Check Timestamp},'%T') BETWEEN '04:00:00' AND '04:59:59' THEN '12'
	END)
