Transact SQL :: Dynamic Query For Multi-Header CrossTab Pivot
May 7, 2015
Have a table with a structure like:
FIELD_A
FIELD_B
FIELD_C
FIELD_D
AMOUNT
DATA_A1
DATA_B1
DATA_C2
DATA_D2
37540
[Code] ....
In such a case, devising a dynamic cross-tab query, to cover all the items, and result like a pivot like the following to represent the data in a multi-header pivot like following:
I am trying to work on a database with 3 tables. To make it easier I have created a couple of temp tables to work out the syntax.
CREATE TABLE #owner ( [NameId] tinyint IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [Name] varchar(50) NOT NULL )
INSERT INTO #owner VALUES ('ME'); INSERT INTO #owner VALUES ('Other');
CREATE TABLE #propertyType ( [TypeId] tinyint IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [Name] varchar(50) NOT NULL )
INSERT INTO #propertyType VALUES ('Home'); INSERT INTO #propertyType VALUES ('Car');
CREATE TABLE #property ( [NameId] tinyint NOT NULL, [TypeId] tinyint NOT NULL, [Value] varchar(50) NOT NULL )
INSERT INTO #property VALUES (1,1, 'Blue'); INSERT INTO #property VALUES (1,2, 'Black'); INSERT INTO #property VALUES (2,1, 'Red'); INSERT INTO #property VALUES (2,2, 'Black');
DROP TABLE #owner; DROP TABLE #propertyType; DROP TABLE #property
| NameId | Name | | 1 | ME| | 2 | other |
| TypeId | Name | | 1 | Home | | 2 | Car |
| NameId | TypeId | Value | | 1 | 1 | Blue | | 1 | 2 | Black | | 2 | 1 | Red | | 2 | 2 | Black |
Where property value is some arbitrary detail. The real propertyType has 50 or 60 rows and not every property has all of the values. I am trying to create a pivot table that would look like so that I can present the data in an easier to understand format:
[Owner | Home | Car ] [ME | Blue | Black ] [Other| Red | Black ]
The propertyTypes are added often, and I don't really have the ability to change them. There is a unique constrant on property on nameid and typeid so there will never be two of the same property with the same owner. Any help would be very helpful.
Instead of doing a Count for the Pivot (the count will always be either 0 or 1 due to the design of the table being used), I would like to return an "X" for those records with a count of 1, and return a blank (otherwise null) for those records with a count of 0. So, the result set would look like:
ItemKey Description Aflatoxin Coliform Bacteria E_Coli Fumonisin Melamine Moisture Mold Salmonella Vomitoxin (DON) Yeast 1000 Item1000 X X X X X 1024 Item1024 X X X X X 135 Item135 X X X X X 107 Item107 X X X 106 Item106 X X X X X
I tried using a Case statement within the PIVOT portion, but I either did it incorrectly or it's not possible to do use a Case within the Pivot. Can I easily accomplish this?
consider the following table: name , TaskDate john , 01/01/2006 john , 01/03/2005 steve , 01/05/2006 i want to build a select statement that gives result like the following: name , JanuaryTotal , FebruaryTotal john , 150 , 110 steve , 170 , 50 so the result will be total tasks in specific month, is it doable in one select or should i turn around using hash tables ???
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.
I need some help in converting this crosstab SQL from an Access query to a View in SQL Server Express:TRANSFORM First(tblPhones.PhoneNumber) AS FirstOfPhoneNumber SELECT tblPhones.ClientID FROM tblPhones GROUP BY tblPhones.ClientID PIVOT tblPhones.PhoneType;
I have a pivot table query I am running and wanted to find out if there was a way to pull in the dates like getdate() - 12 months, getdate() - 11 months, etc. instead of hard coding the dates.
Here is my query
SELECT Client, [4/1/2007 12:00:00 AM] AS Month1, [5/1/2007 12:00:00 AM] AS Month2, [6/1/2007 12:00:00 AM] AS Month3, [7/1/2007 12:00:00 AM] AS Month4, [8/1/2007 12:00:00 AM] AS Month5, [9/1/2007 12:00:00 AM] AS Month6, [10/1/2007 12:00:00 AM] AS Month7, [11/1/2007 12:00:00 AM] AS Month8, [12/1/2007 12:00:00 AM] AS Month9, [1/1/2008 12:00:00 AM] AS Month10, [2/1/2008 12:00:00 AM] AS Month11, [3/1/2008 12:00:00 AM] AS Month12, [4/1/2008 12:00:00 AM] AS Month13, Engineer FROM (SELECT Client, DollarsBilled, SlipDates, Engineer FROM dbo.MonthlyClientBillables) p PIVOT (SUM(DollarsBilled) FOR SlipDates IN ([4/1/2007 12:00:00 AM], [5/1/2007 12:00:00 AM], [6/1/2007 12:00:00 AM], [7/1/2007 12:00:00 AM], [8/1/2007 12:00:00 AM], [9/1/2007 12:00:00 AM], [10/1/2007 12:00:00 AM], [11/1/2007 12:00:00 AM], [12/1/2007 12:00:00 AM], [1/1/2008 12:00:00 AM], [2/1/2008 12:00:00 AM], [3/1/2008 12:00:00 AM], [4/1/2008 12:00:00 AM])) AS pvt
I have a query which I want to convert It PIVOT query
SELECTÂ Â Â Â Parties.AreaID, Parties.Area, CashSalesDetail.ProductID, CashSalesDetail.ProductName, SUM(CashSalesDetail.Qty) AS QtyFROMÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â CashSalesDetail INNER JOINÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â CashSales ON CashSalesDetail.CSNo = CashSales.CSNo INNER JOINÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Parties ON CashSales.PartyID = Parties.PartyIDWHEREÂ Â Â Â (CashSales.TransDate >= CONVERT(DATETIME, '2014-07-01 00:00:00', 102)) AND (CashSales.TransDate <= CONVERT(DATETIME, '2015-06-30 00:00:00', 102))GROUP BY Parties.AreaID, Parties.Area, CashSalesDetail.ProductID, CashSalesDetail.ProductName
following is my requirement after summing up qty of each area

Hi,I am trying to create a stored procedures (SQL 7.0), to provide dataina crosstab format.(I'm using Crystal Reports 8.5, but the Crosstab capabilities areterrible, so I have to do as much as possible on the SQL side)I have a table [Occurrences] with the following fields:Year (int)Month (int)Occurs (int)Claims (int)I need a query to give me the following format:Acct_Month 2001 2002 2003Occurs Claims Occurs Claims Occurs ClaimsJanuary 120 180 132 196 110 140February 154 210 165 202 144 178March etc.......Catch! I need the Year field name to be the contents of the fieldYear in the Table (2001, 2002, 2003...). Not the usual Year_1, Year_2approach.I got the month name ok...Acct_Month = DATENAME(month, Convert(Varchar(2), Month) + '/01/'+Convert(Char(4),Year))Is it possible to do this easely, without the use of cursors?Any help would be much appreciated.Luis Pinto
I pulled some examples of using a subquery pivot to build a temp table, but cannot get it to work.
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#Pyr') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #Pyr GO SELECT vst_int_id, [4981] AS Primary_Ins, [4978] AS Secondary_Ins,
[code]....
The problems I am having are with the integer data being used to create temp table fields. The bracketed numbers on line 7-10 give me an invalid column name error each. In the 'FOR', I get another error "Incorrect syntax near 'FOR'. Expecting '(', or '.'.". Â The first integer in the "IN" gives me an "Incorrect syntax near '[4981]'. Expecting '(' or SELECT". Â I will post the definitions from another effort below.
I have some data which is vertical...I want to create a pivot query in SQL that will give me a result that is horizontal like this. I cannot find a way of doing it without lots of IF or CASE statements?
DECLARE @ServerCIName varchar(5000) SELECT * FROMÂ dbo.INC WHERE Status in ('Assigned','In Progress','Pending') and Description like '%' + (Select * from SplitDelimiterString(@ServerName,',')) + '%' and (select DATEADD(dd, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, (Submit_Date)), 0)) = (select DATEADD(dd, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, getdate()), 0)) In place of "and Description like '%' + (Select * from SplitDelimiterString(@ServerName,',')) + '%' ", if I use "and Description like '%' + @ServerName + '%' " and pass a single value, it works.
But @ServerName contains multiple values and it is dynamic (not constant).
I have tried building an Inline TVF, as I assume this is how it would be used on the DB; however, I am receiving the following error on my code, I must be missing a step somewhere, as I've never done this before. I'm lost on how to implement this clr function on my db?
Error: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure clrDynamicPivot, Line 18 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'external'. CREATE FUNCTION clrDynamicPivot ( -- Add the parameters for the function here @query nvarchar(4000), @pivotColumn nvarchar(4000),
I have to build a dynamic query to go over to Oracle and get some data and bring it back via a SQL Server Stored Procedure. How I can create an IN clause passing values and ","s from a SQL Server Temp Table that I have already built.
SET @SQLQuery = @SQLQuery + 'WHERE MEMBER.MEMBER_ID IN (''''' + SELECT MEMBER.MEMBER_ID + ',' FROM #TempTable + '''''Â '
I don't know why this is so difficult. What I want to do is take a table name as a parameter to build a query and get an integer value from the result of the query. But from all of the research I have been doing, Dynamic SQL is bad in SQL server because of SQL Injections. But my users are not going to be supplying the table names.
Things I have learned:
 - SQL Functions cannot use Exec to execute query strings.  - SQL Functions can return a concatenated string that could be used by a stored procedure to Exec the query string.
So how can I write a stored procedure that will  1. take a parameter 2. Pass the parameter to a function that will return a string 3. Execute that string as SQL 4. Get a return value from that SQL statement 5. Then finally, from a View, how can I pass a parameter to the stored procedure and get the returned value from the stored procedure to be used as a field in the View?
Numbers 3, 4, and 5 are where I am really stuck. I guess I don't know the proper syntax and limitations of SQL Server.
I have a multi-column report with a page header that spans the width of the report. Whenever I close the report and reopen it, the header is changed to the width of the column. This isn't a real big deal because I deploy it with the header across the whole page; but once in a blue moon I accidentally hit the F5 key (which I am used to using for refresh in other environments I work in) and the report gets redeployed with the messed up header. Is there anyway to stop RS from automatically adjusting the page header?
And is there anyway to disable the F5 key from deploying the reports. I do use it to build and run windows apps, and don't want to change that, but I don't want to deploy 80+ reports when I accidentially hit it.
I have two tables - one with dates at the end of each month (10/31, 11/30, 12/31, et al) that's linked to a data table containing client signups. While I can get the count per month in a pivot table, I'm trying to calculate the beginning count of each month.
How do I use calculate or something similar to sum the count of records created minus count of records closed prior to the beginning of the period?
The pivot looks like this right now and works by month:
beginning active records ????? count of records created 100 count of records deleted 50 net records created 50 running balance in net records created 100 (theoretically the next month's beginning balance, but can't figure out how to reference or calculate)
convert my table(like picture) to hierarchical structure in SQL. actually i want to make a table from my data in SQL for a TreeList control datasource in VB.net application directly.
ProjectID is 1st Parent Type_1 is 2nd Parent Type_2 is 3rd Parent Type_3 is 4ed Parent
As you can see, the above table has cumulative data. 1. It calculates the number of Products submitted till a particular date- weekly 2. The date columns should increase dynamically(if the dates in base table increases) each time the query is executed For ex: the next date would be 11/28/2007 I tried something like, it gives me count of €˜b€™ level and €˜p€™ level products by week declare @date1 as datetime select @date1 = '6/30/2007' while (@date1 != (select max(SDate) from dbo.TrendTable)) begin set @date1 = @date1 + 7 select Level, count(Products) from dbo.TrendTable where SDate < @date1 group by Level end what I think is required is a pivot that dynamically adds the columns for increase in date range. /Pls suggest if any other way of achieving it. Pls help!!!
Hi, I am currently trying to create a report the dynamicaly groups from parameters. The grouping part works fine but I need to show the parameter label name or the field referenced by a parameter.
This is the expression I have written to do this. The problem seems to be is with the true part of the iif statement. The false displays fine in the group header. The Parameters!Param2.Label also displays if used on its own.
This is the error that is fires back when I run the report.
The Value expression for the textbox €˜textbox4€™ contains an error: The expression referenced a non-existing field in the fields collection.
I am running into an issue while trying to export data to a spreadsheet. I actually don't know how to do it... Considering I only know the column names by the time I execute my procedure, I can't use the Excel Destination to export data.
With DTSs I would create an ActiveX script to execute the procedure which loads the results into a temp table. After that I would select everything from this temp table and load the results into a record set, looping through this record set to create the destination spreadsheet with the dynamic column names.
When it comes to SSIS we are advised to write vb.net scripts instead of ActiveX... These ones do not have records set's but dataset's, which at first glance are only applicable to xml and not xls files (when I try to define a variable as a dataset in my vb.net code, I face a message saying: Missing reference required to assembly System.Xml...).
How I would create this spreadsheet using a vb.net code in SSIS packages? Please, help...
Is there a way to write Crosstab query in SQL 7.0.
I have a Table which has partner, usernames and the city they are from, apart from other fields. I have another table which tracks the user activity on a day by number of visits to the web site. What i want is like this :-
Date Total Visits Atlanta Connecticut .... .... ....
I.E. I wan't the city names to appear as columns. The main catch here is that this data is for a given partner. So the city names could be different for different users from different partners. i.e. city names have to be generated on the fly by looking at the partner table and then by getting all its users and seeing what all are the cities involved.
