I have a query
DECLARE @DynamicPivotQuery AS NVARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @ColumnName AS NVARCHAR(MAX)
--Get distinct values of the PIVOT Column
SELECT @ColumnName= ISNULL(@ColumnName + ',','')
+ QUOTENAME(name)
[Code] ....
and so on.
I've tried putting my group by everywhere but it's not working. I'm missing something but what?
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).
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!!
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?
I have written a script to pivot a table into multiple columns.
The script works when run on its own but gives an error when i try to create a view or aprocedure from the same script. The temporary table #.... does not work so i have converted it to a cte.
Here is a copy of the script below
-- Dynamic PIVOT
IF OBJECT_ID('#External_Referrals') IS NULL
DROP TABLE #External_Referrals;
GO
DECLARE @T AS TABLE(y INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY);
[Code] ....
Can we pass dynamic values while pivoting?
Here is example
Declare @a date, @b date
set @a='2015-09-08 22:19:29.330'
set @b='2015-09-17 22:19:29.330'
create table #DateTemp(Full_Date_Text_YYYY_MM_DD datetime,Full_Date date)
insert into #DateTemp(Full_Date_Text_YYYY_MM_DD,Full_Date)
select '2015-09-09 00:00:00.000','2015-09-09'
[Code] ......
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] .....
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 have a lookup table, as below. Each triggercode can have several service codes.
TriggerCodeServiceCode
BBRONZH BBRZFET
BBRONZH RDYNIP1
BBRONZP BBRZFET

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

11571901BBRZFET 5
11571901RBNDLOC 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,'')

Hi all.
I moved my OLAP DB to SQL Server 2005, installed Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Analysis Services 9.0 on the client and keep creating Pivot Tables in Excel until...
Grouping - when I try to group couple of members (or even 1 for that matter) I'm getting :
"Intrnal error: An unexpected error occurred (file"mdinfo.cpp", line 3335 function "MDInfo::Init")."
The only reference to mdinfo error I found in OLAP newsgroup where a guy was getting it trying to process the cube. My cube is processed (obviuosly). So, anybody knows what has changed with respect to grouping in PTS?

I have 2 tables (#raw1 & #raw2). Each has a year (yr) and month (mnth) and a count (cnt1 / cnt2) field. I need a table created as follows:
2013 2014 2015
cnt1 cnt2 cnt1 cnt2 cnt1 cnt2
jan 5 77 77 8 88
etc....
Normally, I would ask about a pivot but since it is months down one side and year and columns on the top, I don't know if a pivot will work.

This returns a dataset, that I need to convert into a PIVOT table that should look like the attached spreadsheet.
Having trouble writing the PIVOT table query. I feel like I am missing something conceptually as I am not doing any summing or aggregation. I don't know if dynamics SQL is the solution here or which route to take. I don't know if there is such things as PIVOTING without aggregation. CROSS TAB came to my mind as well.
Reformatting data in a PIVOT Table or find a better way to display.

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.
I need Dynamic Partition of SQL Table.
1. What is the best practice for partitioning (on date column)
2. The project on which i am working correctly have a case where in i get the update of my status flag after few days (Say 15 - 30) in that case if my data got into partition table how to update and how to search which partition has my data
3. Is creating partition occupies more disk space?
4. Is every partition would need index?
I am trying to select data from table that have YYMM as table names, they are formatted table1410,table1411, table1412. I am trying to format it like this

But this is hard coding the YYMM, and I would like to have it pull 30,60,90 days fromthe first of the current month. I am having a bit of trouble formatting, how to accomplish this.
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.

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 have query which is used to dynamically insert value but not working. We are trying to get all table names and insert dynamically to all tables by looping through table names.

I have started working with dynamic queries recently. I am using a table variable and need to add a join in query dynamically.
For Eg- @TableVariable
SET @query_from = @query_from + CHAR(10) + ' JOIN @TableVariable on ABC.ID = @TableVariable.ID '
BUt it gives an error that @TableVariable must be declared
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?

The result I want, is a "pivot like" table.

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.
Thank you.

I wan to print out the dynamic query result so that i can use as a script for some tasks.This is the scenario wher i got stuck, i am not able to print out the result as it return only the last value because of OUTPUT param limitation
Is there any way to print all the 3 INSERT stmt.
IF OBJECT_ID ('tempdb.dbo.#temp') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE #temp
CREATE TABLE #temp (Command varchar(8000))
INSERT INTO #temp
SELECT 'INSERT INTO Test1(column1,column2)values(1,2)'
UNION ALL
SELECT 'INSERT INTO Test2(column1,column2)values(1,2)'
[code]....
Within a trigger, I'm trying to create a unique table name (using the NEWID()) which I can store the data that is found in the inserted and deleted tables.
Declare @NewID varchar(50) = Replace(convert(Varchar(50),NEWID()),'-','')
Declare @SQLStr varchar(8000)
Set @SQLStr= 'Select * into [TMPIns' + @newID + '] from inserted'
Exec (@SQLStr)
I get the following error: Invalid object name 'inserted'
I know I can do:
Select * into #inserted from inserted
Set @SQLStr= 'Select * into [TMPIns' + @newID + '] from #inserted'
Exec (@SQLStr)
But I don't want to use TempDB as these tables can become big and I also feel that it is redundant. Is there a way to avoid the creation of #inserted?
I am using
SSAS: version 2008
Excel: version 2013
I am connecting to SSAS cube from Excel and I have date dimension with 4 fields (I have others but I don't use it for this case). I created 4 fields in order to test all possible scenarios that I could think of:
DateKey:
  - Type: System.Integer
  - Value: yyyyMMdd
Date:
  - Type: System.DateTime
DateStr0:
  - Type: System.String
  - Value: dd/MM/yyyy (note: I am not using US culture)
  - Example: 01/11/2015 Â
DateStr1:
  - Type: System.String
  - Value: %d/%M/yyyy (note: I am not using US culture)Â
  - Example: 1/11/2015 Â
Filtering on date is working fine:
Initially, in excel, filtering on date was not working. But after changing dimensional type to time, and setting  DataType to Date, as mentioned in [URL] filter is working fine as you can see in the picture.Grouping on date is not working:
I have hierarchy in my Date dimension and I can group based on hierarchy, no problem. But user is used to pre-build grouping function of excel, and he wants to use that. Pre-build functions of Excel, Group and ungroup seems to be available as you can see in following picture:
But when user clicks 'Group', excel groups it as if it is a string, and that is the problem. User wants to group using pre-build grouping function available in Pivot table. I also find out that Power Pivot Table does not support this excel grouping functionality. And if I understood well, this pre-build grouping functionality of excel, needs to do calculation at run time, and that is not viable solution if you have millions of rows. So Power pivot table does not support pre-build grouping functionality of excel and hence we need to use dimension hierarchy to do the grouping. But I am not using Power Pivot table, I am using simple Pivot Table. So I expect grouping functionality to be working fine. Then I tried to do simple test. I created a simple data source in excel itself. And use it as source of my Pivot table. Then grouping is working fine. The only difference that I can see is (When double click the Measure value in Excel),For date values of my simple test, excel consider them as 'Date'.
For date values of my data coming from cube, excel consider them as 'General'
  2.1. But value here is same as it was in simple test.
  2.2. 'Date Filter' works just fine.
  2.3. If I just select this cell and unselect it, then excel change type to 'Date' though for that cell.Â
  2.4. I have created 4 different types of fields in my date dimension thinking that values of attribute of my dimension might be the problem, but excel consider 'General' for all of them.
  2.5 This value (that can be seen when double clicking on measure) comes from 'Name Column' of the attribute. And the DataType defined is WChar. And I thought that might be the reason of issue. And I changed it to 'Date'. But SSAS does not allow it to change to 'Date' giving error : The 'Date' data type is not allowed for the 'NameColumn' property; 'WChar' should be used.
So, I don't know, what is the puzzle piece that I am missing.
1. Date filter works, group does not work
2. Excel consider it as 'General' string.
3. SSAS does not allow to change 'NameColumn' to Date.
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
(

@query nvarchar(4000),
@pivotColumn nvarchar(4000),
[code]....
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.......
select *
into #temp
from #source
pivot ( avg(value) for drive in ([C], [D], [E], [F], [G], [H], [T], [U], [V] )) as value
select * from #temp order by .........
versus
select *
into #temp
from #source
pivot ( avg(value) for drive in (select distinct(column) from #source)) as value
select * from #temp order by .....
I have attached SQL File which Gives me the below resultset Excel.xlsx
But the problem is i am not able to round off the dynamic columns in side my PIVOT, how to rewrite the dynamic query.
