SQL Server 2012 :: How To Join Pivot Results With Dynamic Columns

Mar 5, 2015

I have a lookup table, as below. Each triggercode can have several service codes.

TriggerCodeServiceCode
BBRONZH BBRZFET
BBRONZH RDYNIP1
BBRONZP BBRZFET
BCSTICP ULDBND2
BCSTMCP RBNDLOC

I then have a table of accounts, and each account can have one to many service codes. This table also has the rate for each code.

AccountServiceCodeRate
11518801DSRDISC -2
11571901BBRZFET 5
11571901RBNDLOC 0
11571901CDHCTC 0
17412902CDHCTC1 0
14706401ULDBND2 2
14706401RBNDLOC 3

What I would like to end up with is a pivot table of each account, the trigger code and service codes attached to that account, and the rate for each.

I have been able to dynamically get the pivot, but I'm not joining correctly, as its returning every dynamic column, not just the columns of a trigger code. The code below will return the account and trigger code, but also every service code, regardless of which trigger code they belong to, and just show null values.

What I would like to get is just the service codes and the appropriate trigger code for each account.

SELECT @cols = STUFF((SELECT DISTINCT ',' + ServiceCode
FROM TriggerTable
FOR XML PATH(''), TYPE
).value('(./text())[1]', 'VARCHAR(MAX)')
,1,2,'')

[Code] ....

SQL Server 2012 :: Join Two Dynamic Pivot Tables

Dec 11, 2013

I have two dynamic pivot tables that I need to join. The problem I'm running into is that at execution, one is ~7500 characters and the other is ~7000 characters.

I can't set them both up as CTEs and query, the statement gets truncated.

I can't use a temp table because those get dropped when the query finishes.

I can't use a real table because the insert statement gets truncated.

Do I have any other good options, or am I in Spacklesville?

SQL Server 2012 :: Dynamic Table Pivot With Multiple Columns

Jan 23, 2014

I am trying to pivot table DYNAMICALLY but couldn't get the desired result .

Here is the code to create a table

create table Report
(
deck char(3),
Jib_in float,
rev int,
rev_insight int,
jib_out float,

[Code] .....

Code written so far. this pivots the column deck and jib_in into rows but thats it only TWO ROWS i.e the one i put inside aggregate function under PIVOT function and one i put inside QUOTENAME()

DECLARE @columns NVARCHAR(MAX), @sql NVARCHAR(MAX);
SET @columns = N'';
SELECT @columns += N', p.' + QUOTENAME(deck)
FROM (SELECT p.deck FROM dbo.report AS p
GROUP BY p.deck) AS x;

[Code] ....

I need all the columns to be pivoted and show on the pivoted table. I am very new at dynamic pivot. I tried so many ways to add other columns but no avail!!

SQL Server 2012 :: Convert Rows To Columns Using Dynamic PIVOT Table

Feb 3, 2015

I have this query:

SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT dbo.Filteredfs_franchise.fs_franchiseid AS FranchiseId, dbo.Filteredfs_franchise.fs_brandidname AS Brand,
dbo.Filteredfs_franchise.fs_franchisetypename AS [Franchise Type], dbo.Filteredfs_franchise.fs_franchisenumber AS [Franchise Number],
dbo.Filteredfs_franchise.fs_transactiontypename AS [Transaction Type], dbo.Filteredfs_franchise.fs_franchisestatusname AS [Status Code],

[Code] ....

I need to pivot this so I can get one row per franchiseID and multiple columns for [Franchisee Name Entity] and [Franchise Name Individual]. Each [Franchisee Name Entity] and [Franchise Name Individual] has associated percentage of ownership.

This has to be dynamic, because each FranchiseID can have anywhere from 1 to 12 respective owners and those can be any combination of of Entity and Individual. Please, see the attached example for Franchise Number 129 (that one would have 6 additional columns because there are 3 Individual owners with 1 respective Percentage of ownership).

The question is how do I PIVOT and preserve the percentage of ownership?

SQL Server 2012 :: Dynamic Pivot With Subgrouping

Nov 25, 2013

I am trying to pivot some data as you would normally however I am trying to also group the pivot into three sub column groups too.

Basically the scenario is that I have three sub groups Budget, Person, RenewalDate for each Service (Service being the pivot point). So for each unique service I want to display the budget person and renewal date for each service by company.

I have created two tables to illustrate the base data and the required output.

How to do this dynamically because the number of Services is unknown, i.e. it could be 4 Services or 20, each with three sub columns, budget, person and renewal date.

Please find code below. It should be quite self explanatory as to what I am trying to do.

IMPORTANT:

1. I really need it to be dynamic
2. the Services are not standardised names, they are numbered for illustration purposes only, they vary in naming convention.

create table #BaseData
(
Company nvarchar(100),
Person nvarchar(50),
[Service] nvarchar(100),
Budget int,
RenewalDate datetime
)

[Code] .....

SQL Server 2012 :: Creating Dynamic Pivot Table

The issue that I am having is:

I know that I have to use the [ ] in order to run the dynamic sql. I am not sure what is failing and why as the syntax seems to be clean to me (obviously it is not).

Pivot On Dynamic Columns

May 11, 2006

I have a table with 40k terms and I need to map these to a set of objects where each object is represented as a column(tinyint). The object/column name is represented as a guid and columns are added/removed dynamically to support new objects for a set of terms.

I can get the rows needed:

guid1guid2guid3guid4guid5
================================
01100
01101

I think I need to then convert this set of rows to a table which I can join to the object runtime table to start these objects if the column has a count/sum greater than 0. This is the table I think I need in order to join on guids to the runtime table:

NAME Count
===========
guid10
guid22
guid32
guid40
guid51

I don't know how to construct this table for the former table. I think it may be a pivot table, but I don't know. I have the column names:

SELECT NAME
FROM SYSCOLUMNS
WHERE ID = OBJECT_ID(#Temp)
ORDER BY COLID

NAME is a sysname, which doesn't seem to cast into a guid, also a problem when joining the runtime table with this #Temp table.

I also don't want to use a cursor to construct a table.


Thanks for any help,
James

Help With A Pivot Table (dynamic Columns)

Feb 15, 2008

I have the following Pivot Table:



Code Snippet
Declare @tblEquipment Table
(
numEquipmentID INT,
txtManufacturer nvarchar(30),
txtModel nvarchar(30)
)
Declare @tblEquipmentFields Table
(
numFieldNameID INT,
txtFieldName nvarchar(25)
)
Declare @tblEquipmentDetails Table
(
numEquipmentDetailsID INT,
numEquipmentID INT,
numFieldNameID INT,
txtFieldValue nvarchar(30)
)
Insert INTO @tblEquipment Values(23, 'Dell', 'Optiplex 270')
Insert INTO @tblEquipment Values(26, 'Dell', '1705FP')
Insert INTO @tblEquipment Values(42, 'Dell', 'Optiples 745')
Insert INTO @tblEquipmentFields Values(1, 'Monitor Size')
Insert INTO @tblEquipmentFields Values(2, 'Processor Type')
Insert INTO @tblEquipmentDetails Values(1077, 23, 2, 'P4M')
Insert INTO @tblEquipmentDetails Values(1146, 26, 1, '17')
Insert INTO @tblEquipmentDetails Values(1026, 42, 2, 'P4 Dual Core')
Select numEquipmentID As EquipmentID, [Monitor Size], [Processor Type]
From
(Select a.numEquipmentID, txtManufacturer, txtModel, txtFieldName, txtFieldValue
From @tblEquipment a JOIN
@tblEquipmentDetails b ON
a.numEquipmentID = b.numEquipmentID
JOIN @tblEquipmentFields c ON
b.numFieldNameID = c.numFieldNameID
) As SourceTable
Pivot
(
Max(txtFieldValue)
For txtFieldName IN ([Monitor Size], [Processor Type])
) As PivotTable






What I'm wondering is if it's possible to have the columns change dynamically. For example:

If lets say I only want the record with numEquipmentID of 23 to show I only want its corresponding information to show

EquipmentID ProcessorType
23 P4M

Now lets say that I want to bring back an additional record, like 23 and 26 I would like the columns to change to the following

EquipmentID ProcessorType Monitor Size
23 P4M NULL
26 NULL 17

So in essence a column will be added based on the equipmentID. Thanks in advanced.

Pivot Results With Columns For Movements In Period

I have a query which returns the movements to and from our warehouse stock, as well as the current stock for each depot and how much is on order. What I need is a kind of pivot so that each item is shown just once, and then summarises the movements in 4 extra columns: Last 30 days, 30-60 days, 60-90 days and 90-120 days. How can I achieve this with my query below? A sample of some of the results is also shown.

SQL Server 2012 :: View Results Not Displaying Nil Columns

Sep 5, 2014

I have a view I've created which displays client sortname, partner and date added which displays 7 results.

When I add another table to this view to display the Industry it then only gives me 4 results as the other 3 results have no Industry instead of giving me the 7 results and showing the Industry column as empty for the other 3.

Is there a way I can make it show all 7 results and havethe column where the industry is empty display the other results instead of not displaying any results at all for them?

Script:
SELECT dbo.cdbClient.cltSortName AS ClientName, dbo.vcltAttrib4.ainTVal AS ClientPartner, dbo.vcltAttrib422.ainDVal AS [Date Added],
dbo.cdbAttribInst.ainTVal AS Inudstry
FROM dbo.cdbClient LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.cdbObject ON dbo.cdbClient.cltCategoryID = dbo.cdbObject.objID LEFT OUTER JOIN

[Code] ....

In the above script the cbdAttribInst table has the Industry column I need which is 'ainTVal'...

PIVOT With Dynamic Columns Names Created

Aug 3, 2007

I am trying to do a PIVOT on a query result, but the column names created by the PIVOT function are dynamic.

For example (modified from the SQL Server 2005 Books Online documentation on the PIVOT operator) :

SELECT
Division,
[2] AS CurrentPeriod,
[1] AS PreviousPeriod
FROM
(
SELECT
Period,
Division,
Sales_Amount
FROM
Sales.SalesOrderHeader
WHERE
(
Period = @period
OR Period = @period - 1
)
) p
PIVOT
(
SUM (Sales_Amount)
FOR Period IN ( [2], [1] )
) AS pvt

Let's assume that any value 2 is selected for the @period parameter, and returns the sales by division for periods 2 and 1 (2 minus 1).

Division CurrentPeriod PreviousPeriodA 400 3000 B 400 100 C 470 300 D 800 2500 E 1000 1900

What if the value @period were to be changed, to say period 4 and it should returns the sales for periods 4 and 3 for example, is there a way I can change to code above to still perform the PIVOT while dynamically accepting the period values 4 and 3, applying it to the columns names in the first SELECT statement and the FOR ... IN clause in the PIVOT statement ?

Need a way to represent the following [2] and [1] column names dynamically depending on the value in the @period parameter.

[2] AS CurrentPeriod,
[1] AS PreviousPeriod

FOR Period IN ( [2], [1] )

I have tried to use the @period but it doesn't work.

Thanks in advance.

Transact SQL :: SSMS Pivot With Dynamic Columns

I found this Microsoft article for creating crosstab-like queries in SSMS.Is it possible, however, to create this same query if I do not know what the values for the columns will be?  Using their example for my problem, I will not know what the values in the "IN" criteria will be because my query would be for a "rolling" 12 months (thus causing that IN criteria to change every month).I've tried declaring variables to pull in the values, but since this will eventually go into a view, I don't think that I can use declared variables.

YearClient NameProduct-List
2014BobHosting-Development-Testing
2014FredDevelopment-Consulting
2014MaxConsulting
2015BobHosting-Testing

So, I would only get one record back for each Client for each Year with a list of all of their products concatenated together.

SQL Server 2012 :: How To Match Values From A PIVOT

Jan 31, 2014

I'd like to get a extract table result, with a reference id primary key, showing the maximum dates for events and who was responsible for them. I can get the max(date) field in columns using PIVOT, but can't see a way to get the 'who' field without lots of LEFT JOINs.

Here's some test data and code which shows the principle:

CREATE TABLE #t
(
ref INT ,
id INT ,
who VARCHAR(10) ,
checkin DATE

[Code] ....

The result set is:

ref 1 who1 2 who2 3 who3 4 who4
123 2014-01-18 carol 2014-01-18 andy 2014-01-16 bill 2014-01-17 carol
456 NULL NULL 2014-01-17 NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL

Is there some way to avoid all the LEFT JOINs, maybe by using another PIVOT, to produce the same result?
