how to compare only date and year in php codeigniter

Question

My model

public function get_payscale() {
    $this->db->from(\'payscale P\')->join(\'employee E\',\'E.employee_id = P.employee_id \');
    $this-&g         


        

Answer 1

Use like this :

$this->db->where('EXTRACT(YEAR_MONTH FROM P.payscale_date)',date('Ym'));

This query will extract the Year and month from the date given column like 201605 (2016-05-21)
