Pivot Table With No Numeric Aggregation?

Aug 4, 2006

I'm trying to pivot the data in a table but not aggregate numeric data, just rearrange the data in columns as opposed to rows.

For example, my initial table could be represented by this structure:







ID
Label
Value

1
a
val1

1
b
val2

1
c
val3

1
d
val4

1
e
val5

2
a
val6

2
b
val7

2
c
val8

2
d
val9

2
e
val10

and I am trying to get it into the following structure:







ID
Label a
Label b
Label c
Label d
Label e

1
val1
val2
val3
val4
val5

2
val6
val7
val8
val9
val10

The number of labels is known beforehand, so we know how many columns to make. I can get a first step at pivoting it with 'case' statements, but obviously still end up with a row for each Label/Value pair since there is no aggregate function being applied. So I'm not sure how to get it flattened down like shown above?

Thanks for any replies on this,

Eric

Pivot Table Without Aggregation?

Mar 29, 2007

Hello, I have a resultset as follows:fields: Name, RankIDvalues:Prorduct A, 4Product B, 33Product C, 221(etc)Name is always unique. RankID may not be.I want to take that result set and basically pivot it to have the Namevalues as columns, and the RankID of each one as the data. So youwould end up with only one row like:Product A | Product B | Product C | etc4 | 33 | 221 | etcIs this possible? I do not want to sum the data or anything, simplyrotate it sort of.Any advice is appreciated.

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: PIVOT Without Aggregation

Jun 28, 2015

I have a table imported from a legacy Oracle database that stores values vertically in name/value pairs. I store it in table-type variable that is an exact copy of the structure:

DECLARE @OracleEngData TABLE
( DataSourceCHAR(8)
, [OMNI_NUMBER] INTEGER
, [TIMESTAMP] INTEGER
, [DATA_TYPE] NVARCHAR(24)
, [PARAMETER] NVARCHAR(32)
, [PARAMETER_VALUE] NVARCHAR(132));

If this information were pivoted horizontally: OMNI_NUMBER would be the primary key.

TIMESTAMP is a 10-digit integer that represents the number of seconds since 1/1/1970 UTC that requires additional conversion. DATA_TYPE is not the data type. It is a general categorization of the next two columns.PARAMTER would be the column headings if it were horizontal..PARAMETER_VALUE would be the data value in that column.

I would like to try to use PIVOT to list the PARAMETER column values as column headers. This seems to work fine. What's confusing me is that I'd like it to list the PARAMETER_VALUE column values as raw data, just as it is in the source version, without having to apply some sort of aggregate function to it. Here's a CSV sample of the data you can paste into Excel. I'm trying to transform this:

OMNI_NUMBER,TIMESTAMP,DATA_TYPE,PARAMETER,PARAMETE_VALUE
506026,1413240436,test_data,cnr,211250000,54.8
506026,1413244259,test_data,cnr,211250000,53.2
506026,1413244679,test_data,cnr,211250000,53.1
506026,1413309646,test_data,cnr,211250000,53.4
506026,1413315987,test_data,cnr,211250000,53

[code]...

But I don't want the sum of the values or the average of the values, just the values. The PIVOT syntax seems to require an aggregate operation.

Power Pivot :: Parent-Child Aggregation In Report

Jun 5, 2015

In my data warehouse, I have one level of Parent-Child hierarchy in DimEmployee table - Employee and Manager, linked to each other using a column, ParentEmployeeKey. This table also has historical data stored - a slowly changing dimension of Type 2. I also have a Fact table that gives me information related to Sales - FactSales. In this table, we have SalesAmount stored at Employee level, one Employee can have multiple Sales. Besides, FactSales is also related to DimDate table using DateKey.

I have a requirement wherein I need to make a PowerPivot report out of a PowerPivot data model, that is capable of getting filtered using a timeline, and displays SalesAmount for the Sales occurred in the date range selected on the timeline for a Manager as well as his subordinates in the same report, a Manager's SalesAmount should be an aggregated sum of Sales made by the Manager himself and the Sales made by his subordinates. When the selected date range in the timeline changes, the report must reflect this change.

The approach I tried was adding the ParentEmployeeKey column to FactSales in the data Warehouse, and then adding another roleplaying dimension 'DimManager' in my data model to connect to FactSales based on ParentEmployeeKey of fact with EmployeeKey of DimManager. The problem with this approach is this will only give me Manager related aggregations and I will have to create two separate reports for subordinates and managers.

The following table is a merged view of data from DimEmployee and FactSales. On report, I need to display either of the following:

Column A (applicable SalesAmount)Columns B1 (Manager's SalesAmount) & B2 (Employee's SalesAmount)

Power Pivot :: Converting Text String To Numeric Value

Jun 11, 2015

I have a column that I'm trying to call into a calculated measure to determine an expected contract amount (Terms in Month). The problem is that some of the terms are defined as text strings (MTM, Coterminous, One-time) while others are numbers (12, 36, etc). The entire column is recognized as text. I have a numeric value that management has agreed would be an acceptable substitution (MTM=1, Coterminous=6) and so on. I can't however, figure out how to convert those texts to a number since they are different data types. I've tried a nested IF statement, as well as a LOOKUPVALUE..I'm doing this in Power Pivot, so am limited to DAX formulas

Power Pivot :: Force Measure To Be Visible For All Rows In Pivot Table Even When There Is No Data?

Oct 13, 2015

Can I force the following measure to be visible for all rows in a pivot table?

Sales Special Visibility:=IF(
    HASONEVALUE(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany])
    ;IF(
        VALUES(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany]) = "Sales"
        ;CALCULATE([Sales];ALL(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany]))
        ;[Sales]
    )
    ;BLANK()
)

FYI, I also have other measures as well in the pivot table that I don't want to affect.

Power Pivot :: ALL DAX Function Not Overriding Filter On Pivot Table

Oct 14, 2015

I have a simple pivot table (screenshot below) that has two variables on it: one for entry year and another for 6 month time intervals. I have very simple DAX functions that count rows to determine the population N (denominator), the number of records in the time intervals (numerator) and the simple percent of those two numbers.

The problem that I am having is that the function for the population N is not overriding the time interval on the pivot table when I use an ALL function to do so. I use ALL in other very simple pivot tables to do the same thing and it works fine.

The formula for all three are below, but the one that is the issue is the population N formula. Why ALL would not work, any other way to override the time period variable on the pivot table.

Population N (denominator):
=CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(analyticJudConsist),ALL(analyticJudConsist[CurrentTimeInCare1]))
Records in time interval (numerator):
=COUNTROWS(analyticJudConsist)
Percent:
=[countrows]/[denominatorCare]

Power Pivot :: How To Apply Min Formula Under New Measure Within A Pivot Table

Aug 17, 2015

How can I apply "Min" formula under a "new measure" (calculated field) within a pivot table under Power pivot 2010?Can see that neither does it allow me to apply "min" formula directly "formula box" nor could find any other option.Intent formula: "=Min(1,sum(a:b))" this isn't allowed so all I can do is "=sum(a:b)".

Power Pivot :: Displaying Cumulating Numbers In A Pivot Table When There Is No Value

Mar 11, 2015

I have simple pivot table (below screenshot with info redacted) that displays a population number ("N" below), this is the denominator, a cumulative numerator number (below "#") and a simple cumulative percent that just divides the numerator by the denominator. It cumulates from top to bottom. The numerator and percent are cumulative using the below functions. There are two problems with the numerator and percent:

1. When there is not a number for the numerator, there is no value displayed for both the numerator and the percent..There should be a zero displayed for both values.
2. When there has been a prior number for the numerator and percent (for a prior month interval) but there is no number for the numerator in the current month interval, the prior month number and percent are not displayed in the current month interval--see the 3rd yellow line, this should display "3" and "16.7%" from the second yellow line.Here is the formula for the numerator:

=CALCULATE(count(s1Perm1[entity_id]),FILTER(ALL(s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory]),s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory] <= MAX(s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory])))
Here is the formula for the percent:
=(CALCULATE(countrows(s1Perm1),FILTER(ALL(s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory]),s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory] <= MAX(s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory]))))/(CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(s1Perm1),ALL(s1Perm1[Exit],s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory])))

Power Pivot :: Measures Not Reflected In Pivot Table

Sep 18, 2015

I have data in my Powerpivot window which was generated by a sql query. This data includes a field named 'Cost' and every row shows a value for 'Cost' greater than zero. The problem is that when I display this data in the pivot table all entries for Cost display as $0. At first I thought that maybe Cost was set to a bogus data type (such as 'text) but it is set to ''Decimal Number' so that's not the problem. 

What is happening and how do I fix it so that my pivot table reflects the values for 'Cost'?

Power Pivot :: Difference Between Two Pivot Table Sums?

Nov 23, 2015

I have a data table that contains budget and actual data by month.  I use the data to create a pivot that shows actual results next to budgeted results.  I need a column that shows that variance between those columns.  I think my issue is that the "Type" field contains actual and Budget.  I sum on "Type".  I can't seem to create a sum since those items are in the same field or am I missing something?

Table design

Month|Division|Subdivision|Type|Dept|Rate|Units|Amount
October|DC|Day|Budget|125|10.00|100|1000
October|DC|Day|Actual|125|10.00|110|1100

Power Pivot :: Printing From Pivot Table With Slicers

Apr 13, 2015

I am using excel 2010 and creating pivot table from Power Pivot.  I created a pivot table with department slicers.  All is good, the problem I am having is whilst in an unfiltered position (ALL) of the slicers (departments) I get 200 pages, now when I  click on a given department with say 10 pages, I still get the same 200 pages with the first 10 pages showing the data from the clicked department and 190 blank pages.

All I want is to get a WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) of what is on the screen as my print, but I am getting extra blank pages right after the data.  How do I resolve this.

Below are the steps I go thru to print 

1. Select slicers in unfiltered position (ALL)
2. Select entire pivot table
3. Select Page layout  and select print area.
4.  Save
5. Click on Print Preview to preview the print
6. Click on a given department in the slicer and repeat item 5, but this gives me blank pages after the data.

Do I need any other step?

currently need to re-create an aggregate table in a proc every night to aggregate purchases broken down by person/store in groups of 3, 6 12 etc months.finding the performance of it is very slow as it covers 500,000 million rows.The query looks like

SELECTCusID(int)

, SUM(L6M) as Last6Months
, SUM(L9M) as Last9Months

I need to make changes to this because it is using a BETWEEN on a datetime column. I was wondering though, if anyone else has made agg tables like this before an found a better way of doing them?

Power Pivot :: Pivot Table Loses Text Wrapping For Text Data Upon Refresh

Apr 29, 2015

I have a pivot table that connects to our data warehouse via a PowerPivot connection.  The data contains a bunch of comment fields that are each between 250 and 500 characters.  I've set the columns in this pivot table to have the 'Wrap Text' set to true so that the user experience is better, and they can view these comment fields more clearly.

However, whenever I refresh the data, the text wrapping un-sets itself.  Interestingly, the 'Wrap Text' setting is still enabled, but I have to go and click it, then click it again to actually wrap the text.  This is very burdensome on the user, and degrading the experience.

Any way to make this text wrapping stick so that I don't have to re-set it every time I refresh the data?

Am I right in presumung that I can't create numerically named tables, and can anyone suggest a naming convention that isn't NineThreeZeroZeroNine ?

Power Pivot :: Temp Table Or Table Variable In Query (not Stored Procedure)?

Jul 19, 2012

I don't know if it's a local issue but I can't use temp table or table variable in a PP query (so not in a stored procedure).

Environment: W7 enterprise desktop 32 + Office 2012 32 + PowerPivot 2012 32

Simple example:
    declare @tTable(col1 int)
    insert into @tTable(col1) values (1)
    select * from @tTable

Works perfectly in SQL Server Management Studio and the database connection is OK to as I may generate PP table using complex (or simple) queries without difficulty.

But when trying to get this same result in a PP table I get an error, idem when replacing table variable by a temporary table.

Message: OLE DB or ODBC error. .... The current operation was cancelled because another operation the the transaction failed.

Power Pivot :: Measure Results Limited By Fact Table Dates Instead Of Date Table

Sep 17, 2015

I cannot create a measure that returns results for dates that do not exist in the fact table despite the fact that the components included in the measure contain valid results for these same dates.Creature a measure that counts the number of days where the "stock qty" is below the "avg monthly sales qty for the last 12 months" (rolling measure).Here is the DAX code I have tried for the measure (note that filter explicitly refers to the date table (called Calendar) and not the fact table):

StkOutCnt:=CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS ( VALUES ( Calendar[DateKey] ) ),
FILTER (
Calendar,
[Stock qty] < [Avg Monthly Sales Qty L12M@SKU]
)
)

Below you can see the sub measures (circled in red) are giving results for all days in the calendar.Highlighted in yellow are dates for which the StkOutCnt measure is not returning a result. Having investigated these blank dates, I am pretty confident that they are dates for which there are no transactions in the fact table (weekends, public holidays etc...).why I am getting an "inner join" with my fact table dates despite the fact that this is not requested anywhere in the dax code and that the two sub measures are behaving normally?

Cannot Set Numeric To Null Before Inserting To Table

Jun 21, 2007

Hi,



I have a flat file whose data looks like this:



"Opening Balance", Acct1234, 1001.01

"Closing Balance", Acct1234, 1001.01



In my script component for "Opening Balance", I set my output columns like this:



Row.AccountNumber = CDate(rowValues(1)

Row.OpeningBalance = CDec(rowValues(2))

Row.ClosingBalance = Nothing



Because I don't have a value for ClosingBalance in this row, I set ClosingBalance = Nothing.



And for "Closing Balance", I set my output columns like this, because there's no value for OpeningBalance.



Row.AccountNumber = CDate(rowValues(1)

Row.OpeningBalance = Nothing

Row.ClosingBalance = Nothing



Then, in my column mappings I map OpeningBalance = OpeningBalance and ClosingBalance = ClosingBalance.



The idea being that if there's no value, then it should be set to NULL. However, in my table, I see that instead of NULLs, there's 0.00000. Which is not what I want to see.



Any ideas why this is happening?



Thanks

Pattern Matching - Searching For Numeric Or Alpha Or Alpha-Numeric Characters In A String

Aug 18, 2006

Hi,

I was trying to find numeric characters in a field of nvarchar. I looked this up in HELP.





Wildcard
Meaning



%


Any string of zero or more characters.



_


Any single character.



[ ]


Any single character within the specified range (for example, [a-f]) or set (for example, [abcdef]).






Any single character not within the specified range (for example, [^a - f]) or set (for example, [^abcdef]).

Nowhere in the examples below it in Help was it explicitly detailed that a user could do this.

In MS Access the # can be substituted for any numeric character such that I could do a WHERE clause:

WHERE
Gift_Date NOT LIKE "####*"

After looking at the above for the [ ] wildcard, it became clear that I could subsitute [0-9] for #:

WHERE
Gift_Date NOT LIKE '[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]%'

using single quotes and the % wildcard instead of Access' double quotes and * wildcard.

Just putting this out there for anybody else that is new to SQL, like me.

Pivot Table

Apr 22, 1999

Perhaps I was dreaming, but I thought I remembered reading in some SQL Server 7 propaganda that PIVOT TABLE was added. The idea is, a cool syntax that would turn a number of rows into the same number of columns, and automatically transpose the values for you.

This is not a data-mining application. It's more a hyper-normalizing operation. We define products as a collection of attributes that are stored in rows, not columns. A single product is therefore one row from a Product Header table and N rows from the Product Attributes table. Products can have widely differing numbers of attributes.

I know you can write a query that will grab N rows and turn them into N columns, but I don't want to have to write one for every product type (meaning for N, O, P, Q, R and S attributes).

I just looked in one of my SQL Server 7 books and found nothing on Pivot Table, so maybe I was dreaming.

Failing this cool new command, do you know of a general solution to this type of problem?

Thanks in advance,
Arthur Fuller

Pivot One Of The Table

Dec 24, 2013

I have to pivot one table to get the result in correct format. Here is an example as I am not sure how to explain it. If there is another way instead of pivot, let me know.

Table1
ID | Name |
1 | Joe |
2 | Ron |

Table2
Table1_ID | Language
1 | English
1 | ASL
2 | Spanish
2 | English
2 | French

I need the two tables joined and table2 to be pivoted to get the desired result as shown below. Third column for language is left off as I am limited to two columns.

Result
ID | Name | Language 1| Language 2
1 | Joe | English | ASL
2 | Ron | Spanish | English
