(SalesId INT IDENTITY(1,1), SalesDate DateTime)
GO
--Populate 1000 Sample Sales Records With 
--Random past 0-798 days as sales date
INSERT INTO #Sales(SalesDate)
VALUES(DATEADD(dd, - CONVERT(INT, (798+1)*RAND()),GETDATE()))
GO 1000

 DATENAME(MONTH,SalesDate) [Month Name], COUNT(1) [Sales Count]
FROM #Sales
GROUP BY YEAR(SalesDate), MONTH(SalesDate), 
 DATENAME(MONTH, SalesDate)
ORDER BY 1,2

       COUNT(1) [Sales Count]
	  FROM #Sales
      GROUP BY YEAR(SalesDate),

PIVOT( SUM([Sales Count])

  1. Great Article………… In between below is my Stored procedure . @from and @to are the datepickers value, is there any chance where I can retrieve the values in the format DDMMYYYY from the database. the values are inserted using getdate() function so the format is like ddmmyyyy hh:mi:ss. Of cource Time is important so can use custom format and insert in DDMMYYYY format. but while retrieving data between dates I need to compare the values and both should be in the same format. Please help me.

    [dbo].[getTransactionList](@from DateTime,@to DateTime, @CustomerID varchar(20))

    where CustID = @CustID and Comit_Date between @from and @to
    order byComitID Desc
    end

  3. Is there a way to then get an overall sales number underneath when you add all of the years together for each month?
    For example, under 2014 it would say Overall and at the bottom of January it would be 116 and for February it would be 99.
