This is a follow-up post on SQL Server – Check SQL Agent Job History using T-SQL . SQL Server Agent stores SQL jobs history in sysjobhistory . It has two different columns for date and time, Run_Date and Run_Time . Since this is not available as DATETIME we cannot filter based on certain criteria such as jobs that run in last 24 hours. There is a system function available in msdb database which takes these two columns as input converts output to a DATETIME data type, dbo.agent_datetime . You can use this function as below: SELECT TOP 5 [JobName] = JOB . name , [StepName] = HIST . step_name , [RunDateTime] = dbo . agent_datetime ( HIST . run_date , HIST . run_time ) FROM sysjobs JOB INNER JOIN sysjobhistory HIST ON HIST . job_id = JOB . job_id ORDER BY HIST . run_date , HIST . run_time Result Set: JobName StepName RunDateTime syspolicy_purge_history Verify that automation is enabled. 2013-01-29 02:00:00.000 syspolicy_purge_history Purge history. 2013-01-29 02:00:00.000 syspolicy_purge_history Erase Phantom System Health Records 2013-01-29 02:00:00.000 syspolicy_purge_history (Job outcome) 2013-01-29 02:00:00.000 syspolicy_purge_history Verify that automation is enabled. 2013-01-30 02:00:00.000 (5 row(s) affected) Hope This Helps!
