SET SESSION SQL Statement | CREATE USER Option | Teradata Vantage - Example: Changing the Default Session Calendar Using CREATE USER - Advanced SQL Engine - Teradata Database

You can specify a different default session calendar for a user by specifying the SET SESSION CALENDAR SQL text string as the startup string for the user by submitting a CREATE USER or MODIFY USER statement.

Assuming that the default business calendar for the site is Teradata, the following CREATE USER statement creates a user named john_smith and uses the STARTUP string for john_smith to set his session calendar to COMPATIBLE instead of Teradata each time he starts a new session.

     CREATE USER john_smith AS      PERM=10E6,      PASSWORD=john_smith,      SPOOL = 1200000,      FALLBACK PROTECTION,      STARTUP='SET SESSION CALENDAR=COMPATIBLE';
