I have to create a query to return a next installment date and have a problem with condition when there is a record with no next date (e.g. already paid) but I still need to return that record. Installments payments are every 30 days. Like that:

SELECT u.idloan, t.instdate 
FROM   loans u, schedule t 
WHERE  t.instdate IS NOT NULL
AND    (t.instdate > CONVERT(VARCHAR,getdate(),102) 
AND    t.instdate < DateAdd(DAY, 30, GetDate()) 
AND    t.loanid= u.idloan
ORDER BY u.idloan

With query above I get the loan next payment date but but no records with loans already paid. I was thinking about adding:

or max (t.instdate) <  convert(varchar,getdate(),102)

But getting error cannot include max in where clause.
Any work around? Working on SQL Server 2012.

Thanks.
