Is there a way for using the PIVOT synatx with a dyamic/unknown list of columns? In most PIVOT examples ther columns are "hard" coded but if for example, you are pivoting a sales order table where u don't know which Fiscal Years the orders cover, how could you do this?
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 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 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.
I need to have a dynamic pivot since i import the table from a csv that could have different amount of columns each time. I can't even get a static pivot to work.
I am having trouble making this DAX formula work. This is my test data including the column "rank" which is a row_number with partition by generated using T-SQL. (The nature of the data is that the "Measure" will always increase cumulatively per month and I want the maximum "measure" to equal a rank of 1).What I need is a second RANK column which updates dynamically so that if I select just some of the Months, they will rank from 1 +. E.g:
hi need help how to add to pivot table the day name dynamic for all the month(but i need a short name) like instead Sunday =sun, monday=mon 1-sun 2-mon 3-Tue
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 )
I have the following SQL which i want to convert to a stored procedure having dynamic SQL to generate column numbers (1 to 52) for Sale_Week.Also, I want to call this stored procedure from Excel using VBA, passing 2 parameters to stored procedure in SQL Server e.g,
DECLARE @KPI nvarchar(MAX) = 'Sales Value with Innovation' DECLARE @Country nvarchar(MAX) = 'UK'
I want to grab the resultant pivoted table back into excel. how to do it?
USE [Database_ABC] GO DECLARE @KPI nvarchar(MAX) = 'Sales Value with Innovation' DECLARE @Country nvarchar(MAX) = 'UK'
I know that this is an Excel question, but I guess it is much more likely that an SQL person using dynamic pivot tables had stepped on this, rather than any advanced Excel user.
I am exporting a dynamic pivot table to Excel through a Stored Procedure. If the Stored Procedure that executes the dynamic pivot table returns 7 columns in one run, and 4 columns in the following update, then I have 3 orphaned columns that are still displayed in the spreadsheet. There isn't any content related to them, but the empty columns with their headers are bothering enough.
I've been trying to play with the data connection properties, but nothing deletes unused columns from former data executions.
WITH TEST AS ( SELECT TL.TERMINAL_ID,T.IP_ADDRESS, T.LOGICAL_CONNECT_STATUS, SI.SCHEDULER_ID, SI.INSTRUCTION, SI.GROUP_ID, SI.MAX_READ_RETRIES, SI.DATA_CHAR, SI.SCHEDULE_TYPE,SI.FILEPATH_FLAG, T.STATION_NAME,T.BANK_ID FROM SCHEDULERINFO SI Â INNER JOIN TERMINALGROUP TGÂ ON SI.GROUP_ID = TG.GROUP_ID INNER JOIN TERMINALGROUPLINK TLÂ ON TG.GROUP_ID = TL.GROUP_ID

I need to pass dynamic values in FOR SCHEDULER_ID COLUMN. Because I have huge data.
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.
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.
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.
So, after my last post where the issue came down to my model, I have redone my data sources as a v.2 model and split out into traditional dim/fact tables. I have 2 fact tables a few dims that are shared between the two facts and some dims that are only on one fact.
In my old model I was doing most of this de-normalisation in my sql queries to produce the fact tables (and the two fact tables were related together).
In v1Â I used to get a much better context-aware set of slicers as they were directly connected to the fact that the visualisations on the page were relating to. As I selected a slicer, any other slicers items that were no longer possible would disappear.
This is no longer happening with this star-schema method. The old way was better from a user perspective. I had to remove some "both" cross filter directions from the relationship model due on the dims that were shared between both facts, so they are only now Single. I wonder if that has any bearing on this but even if it does, I don't see a solution from this angle.
I guess the only idea I have would be to create calculated measures/columns (probably columns) to materialise the interesting dim values into the fact table but this seems a bit of a time consuming process and as I don't necessarily know in advance which slicers the users may want to use, so it feels like I almost need to add all possible dimension attributes in each fact table... ?
Here is my relationship diagram. In my testing the slicer updates work ok if they are on a 2 way relationship but not on a Single way relationship.
In my case my 2 fact tables are really related (SchemeParticipantResult is a parent of ParticipantMeasureResult) but this then breaks the traditional Star schema that I was advised to follow before.

The problem is that I do not know the names of the columns before I run the query. I retrieve them based on a a list of Item Numbers: SELECT DISTINCT Name FROM TableName WHERE ItemNumber IN (...)
What I was trying to do is the following, but I am not exactly sure what is wrong:
WITH ProductLines (ItemNumber, ItemName, ItemValue) AS ( SELECT ItemNumber, Name, Value FROM ProductItems WHERE ItemNumber IN (...) )
SELECT * FROM ProductLines -- Don't know the column names PIVOT (
... -- Not sure what should come here FOR ItemNumber IN (...) )
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?
I am having trouble figuring out why the following code throws an error:
declare @cols nvarchar(50), @stmt nvarchar(max) select @cols = ('[' + W.FKStoreID + ']') from (select distinct FKStoreID from VW_PC_T) as W select @stmt = ' select *
[Code] ...
The issue that I am having is:
Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 4 Conversion failed when converting the varchar value '[' to data type int.
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).
The first select is running fine but due to extra values added to the table the list of manual difined columns must be added manualy each time new values occur.
Is it possible to make the PIVOT's IN clause dynamicly as stated in the second script (it is based on the same table #source) when running it prompts the next error;
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 315 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'select'. Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 315 Incorrect syntax near ')'.
adding or moving ')' or '(' are not working.......

I would like to use a dynamic pivot table in my data source view. It seems that a named query can be only one sql statement. So, I cannot use my multi-statement procedure that creates a dynamic pivot table output.
What is the best course of action here? I could hard-code my pivot table query. I could maintain a redundant table in the pivot format. Do I have any good options?
I have this pivot table (I only post the static version as the problem only regards the single quotes)
SELECT * from( select DATEPART(year,DeliverydatePackingSlip) as Year, CASE WHEN DiffPromiseDateFirst < 0 Then '1 - too early' WHEN DiffPromiseDateFirst = 0 Then '2 - on time' ELSE '3 - too late' END as Delivery from iq4bisprocess.FactOTDCustomer WHERE OTD_Exclusion = 0)a PIVOT ( COUNT(Year) For Year
in ([2012],[2013],[2014],[2015])) as pvtNow, packing everything in a string parameter I always stumble over the single quotes. I tried to replace them with CHAR(39), I tried to define a parameter for each occurrence, but always get a syntax error. What am I doing wrong?declare @sql nvarchar(max)
declare @title1 nvarchar(20) declare @title2 nvarchar(20) declare @title3 nvarchar(20) set @title1 = '1 - too early' set @title2 = '2 - on time' set @title3 = '3 - too late'

I've seem some good posts similair to this, but I haven't been able to find my exact issue.
I have the following table:
ID Name Location Start End
1 Joe NY 2000 2001
1 Joe CA 2002 2004
1 Joe MA 2005 2008
2 Sue NJ 2003 2004
2 Sue FL 2004 2008
3 Bob CA 1999 2000
3 Bob WA 2001 2004
3 Bob OR 2005 2006
3 Bob MI 2007 2008
As you can see, the Location, Start and End dates can vary for each person and I don't know how many rows a single person might have.
The result I want, is a "pivot like" table.
ID Name Location1 Start1 End1 Location2 Start2 End2 Location3 Start3 End3 Location4 Start4 End4
1 Joe NY 2000 2001 CA 2002 2004 MA 2005 2008
2 Sue NJ 2003 2004 FL 2004 2008
3 Bob CA 1999 2000 WA 2001 2004 OR 2005 2006 MI 2007 2008
I assume I can first do a count of the maximum rows for an individual and that is greatest number of columns I would need. But doing that and trying to figure out the rest has really stumped me.
Any thoughts, ideas and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
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

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!!
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,'')

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?
