Thanks for posting the table and output. I'm not totally clear on the
business requirements here but it seems like you have a crew rotation
sequence that is, in this case modulus 5?

I'm not sure I've got the SQL skills to easily make this in a single query
(but surely others here can). But just to clarify the business rules for
such a SQL wizard, I would think the solution involves some kind of hidden
variable (new column, aggregation, built in function?) where the number 1
team member's crew position number is incremented by 1 mod 5 for each new
shift date. Whenever that tracking counter becomes 1 again, convert their
actual shift order number to 5, and subtract 1 from every other crew
members' crew position number. Does that sound like the correct business
rule for the process you're trying to create?
