My current query which is based on retrieving data for the year 2018:

SELECT DATENAME(MONTH, STARTDATE) AS MonthName, COUNT (*) AS TOTAL

FROM TABLEUSERS

WHERE YEAR(STARTDATE) = '2018'

GROUP BY MONTH(STARTDATE), DATENAME(MONTH,STARTDATE)

The result:

MonthName | TOTAL

January   |  25

February  |  20 

March     |  40

April     |  11 

May       |  30 

June      |  0

July      |  0 

August    |  0

September |  7

October   |  55

November  |  13

December  |  0

As you can see it's retrieving December for the year 2018 on the list and I don't want December to be shown, I am only interested to view data for all the months we've been through (November as of now).

The result must also contain months where the count is zero.

Then add a condition AND MONTH(STARTDATE) <= MONTH(GETDATE())

That query does not produce that result. So I'm not sure what you're asking for here.

@Squirrel This works fine, but it actually removes the months in between with zero counts too, how can I only do it with the upcoming month

In SQL Server 2008 (I think) you can use the following:

SELECT DATENAME(MONTH, d) AS MonthName, COUNT(STARTDATE) AS Total

FROM (VALUES (0), (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (8), (9), (10), (11)) AS numbers(n)

CROSS APPLY (SELECT DATEADD(MONTH, n, '2018-01-01')) AS dates(d)

LEFT JOIN TABLEUSERS ON YEAR(STARTDATE) = YEAR(d) AND MONTH(STARTDATE) = MONTH(d)

WHERE n < MONTH(GETDATE())

GROUP BY d

There is a (hard-coded) list of numbers between 0 and 11 that will allow you to generate 12 dates. Rest is straight forward.
