Use Cases

  • Dictionary lookup and field explanation
  • SQL filtering and grouping
  • Analytical reporting and reusable query building

Common Usage

  • Measure remaining funded time on NASA awards
  • Filter awards by funding cutoff date
  • Compare funding coverage to obligation or performance periods

Common Mistakes

  • Confusing funded through date with period of performance end date
  • Using the raw string without casting or date normalization

Query Guidance

Parse the field to a date in SQL before filtering or aggregating, and use it as an upper boundary for funding-related analysis. Example pattern: WHERE CAST(fundedThroughDate AS DATE) >= CURRENT_DATE for active funding, or group by fundedThroughDate month/year after converting to a date.
