Quarters of each year calculation from specific date

mastikhor

For an application, I need to identify quarters of each year.

So once the concerned manager logs in to the system, code should check the candidate joining date and compare with the current month. If its complete each quarter, an email response should go to manager and inform to fill the form.

You can tell which month a date is in, yes? And which quarter a month is in? I'm sure you also know whether you what calendar quarters or financial quarters.

So what exactly is the bit you're stuck on?

I want to know which quarter of the month is by calculating current month with the candidate joining date. If its count and ending of 1st, 2nd or etc.... quarter then it should alert manager to do some task.

Oh, then you want to look at [man]date[/man]. Funny how the name is so obvious....

I need a code not the function recommendation

Um, these forums exist to help you with your programming, not to do your work for you. This really is a trivial task: if it sounds too much like hard work for you then maybe you should consider taking up a different and more enjoyable hobby.
