I wonder if any one can help me with this I have a transact that pops a tbl with yesterdays data with the following date criteria WHERE AP_LOG_DATE >= DATEADD(d, DATEDIFF(d, 0, getdate() -1), 0)
and AP_LOG_DATE < DATEADD(d, DATEDIFF(d, 0, getdate()), 0). What I am wanting to do is build into this that if my first SP fails on a saturday then runs on Sunday it will still get all data but my final SP will not due to the fact it only gets yesterdays date. Is there any code I can write that will check to see if the date is there and if not will populate the table.

does first sp populate any tables? where will this table grab data from? also does first sp store the date where it ran succesfully somewhere?

The first sp grabs the data off the switch and store all info including date's of calls

If the population is an INSERT rather than an update, i.e. new rows added - it might be easier to just set a default value for the column as getdate-1, so when a new row is added it is automatically filled with yesterday's date unless otherwise specified.
