In our contract management system, each contract has over 100 reference fields attached to it. These are all stored in single table with contract ID, reference GUID and value as the columns.
So you will have multiple rows for each contract....one for each of the reference fields and then the value attached to that reference.
I want to return the data so there is one row per contract with the reference fields as columns and the reference field values as the column data.
Can this be done using PIVOT as I have tried but not had any success?
I have below DB structure in MSSQL for a small application which follow relational approach. Data retrieval (for Hostels) will need several Join, may be Key-Value approach where data retrieval will be fast.
I am trying to pivot data based on columns value in year column... but results are not showing up correctly. I want to see all columns after pivot.I want to Pivot based on year shown in the data but it can be dynamic as year can go for last 3 years
I am also using an inner join as i have two amount columns in my code and i want to show both amount columns for all displayed year.I am able to pivot but I need in output all the columns like this Id,MainDate, Year1,Year2,Year3(if any), AMT1 for YR1, AMT2 for Yr1, , AMT1 for YR2, AMT2 for Yr2, AMT1 for YR3, AMT2 for Yr3,
Here is some data:
-- CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TEMP]( --[FileType] [varchar](19) NOT NULL, --[dType] [char](2) NOT NULL, --[dVersion] [char](2) NOT NULL, --[Id] [char](25) NOT NULL, --[MainDate] [char](40) NULL,
SELECT Gruppo_Assegnatario, [100] as stato1, [101] as stato2, [102] as stato3 FROM ( select
[Code] ...
That extracts only zeros (columns "stato1", "stato2", "stato3"):
Gruppo_Assegnatariostato1stato2stato3 SDB_BE Vita Antiriciclaggio0 00 SDB_BE Vita Assistenza clienti000 SDB_BE Vita Emissione000 SDB_BE Vita Gestione Rendite000 SDB_BE Vita Liquidazioni000
[Code] ....
Unlike the "SourceTable":
select CASE_ID_, Stato, Gruppo_Assegnatario FROM TicketInevasiPerGruppoEStato extracts
CASE_ID_ Stato Gruppo_Assegnatario HD0000003736734 AssegnatoSDB_GBS Variazione HD0000003736739 AssegnatoSDB_GBS Variazione HD0000003736743 AssegnatoSDB_GBS Variazione HD0000003736783 AssegnatoSDB_GBS Variazione HD0000003736806 SospesoSDB_BE Vita Selezione
[Code] ....
How can I get the right count in the first data mining replacing the zeros (columns "stato1", "stato2", "stato3")?
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:
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:
1) Production data with column headers: Key, Facility, Line, Time, Output 2) Costs data with column headers: Key, Site, Cost Center, Time, Cost
The tables have a common key named obviously as Key. The data looks like this:
Key Facility Line Time Output Alpha
I would like to have two pivot tables which I can filter with ONE slicer based on the column Key. The first pivot table shows row labels Facility, Line and column labels Time. Value field is Output. The second pivot table shows row labels Site, Cost Center, and column lables Time. Value field is Cost.How can I do this with Power Pivot? I tried by linking both tables above to a table with unique Keys in PowerPivot and then creating a PivotTable where I would have used the Key from the Keys table.
Can I force the following measure to be visible for all rows in a pivot table?
Sales Special Visibility:=IF( Â Â HASONEVALUE(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany]) Â Â ;IF( Â Â Â Â VALUES(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany]) = "Sales" Â Â Â Â ;CALCULATE([Sales];ALL(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany])) Â Â Â Â ;[Sales] Â Â ) Â Â ;BLANK() )
FYI, I also have other measures as well in the pivot table that I don't want to affect.
Can we use case in pivot like below? I am getting an error. I want to do Pivot on condition basis.
select ( Column1 ,Column2 ,Column3 ,Column4 ,coloumn5 from Mytable ) x pivot ( case when Column1 = 6 then sum(Column3) else max(Column4) End for coloumn5 in (' + @COLS + ') )p
Hi,I have the following SQL procedure I am running to clean up a filegroupand move all data to a single .MDF file:use <db_name>print 'Move <db_name> db contents to MDF file'DBCC SHRINKFILE ('<db_name>_1_Data', EMPTYFILE)DBCC SHRINKFILE ('<db_name>_Log', EMPTYFILE)DBCC SHRINKFILE ('<db_name>_2_Data', EMPTYFILE)DBCC SHRINKFILE ('<db_name>_log2', EMPTYFILE)goTrouble is that I get the following error:Server: Msg 1105, Level 17, State 2, Line 3Could not allocate space for object '<company_name>. Inv. Line' indatabase '<db_name>' because the 'Data Filegroup 1' filegroup is full.There are five files:- a .MDF file (which is already set as the primary filegroup, 43MB insize);- <db_name>_1_data.ndf (this file is 11GB in size);- <db_name>_2_data.ndf (this file is 4GB in size, empty & cannot beshrunk);- 2 .LDF filesI have been able to remove the "<db_name>_2_data.ndf" filesuccessfully, but moving the objects from filegroup 1 to the primaryfilegroup has yielded the same error message every time. Any ideas onwhat I can do to resolve this?
I have a table which uses multiple joins to create another table but it turns out that the effective_date which is used in the join to match row together does not work all the time since some of the dates for the effective date column are out of sync meaning records that show data as missing even when the other table contains the data. I try the SQL script below but it returning 6 rows instead of 3–
I am trying to figure out how to pivot a temporary table. I have a table which starts with a date but the number of columns and columns names will vary but will be type INT (Data, col2,col3,col4………….n)
So it could look like
Date , TS-Sales, Budget , Toms sales 01-Jan-14,100,120,300 02-Jan-14,80,150,300 03-Jan-14,100,20,180
What I want is to be able to sum al the columns but without knowing the name and the amount columns to start with this is a manually processes. How could I automate this?
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?
Is it possible to generate automatic refresh of excel 2013 table which displays some table of a power pivot model on file open?? I dont want to use pivottable (which supports this ...)
I have a pivot table that connects to our data warehouse via a PowerPivot connection. Â The data contains a bunch of comment fields that are each between 250 and 500 characters. Â 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. Â 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. Â 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?
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),
Hi there, Any tips on my problem would be most welcome...
right, the scenario.
A web Blog
blogger1 posts a blog_entry, e.g I love the simpsons blogger2 comments on that blog_entry, e.g No, I hate the simpsons Blogger3 comments on that comment, ie, How can you hate the simpsons.
so you can comment on a comment on a comment etc.. lool.
right, i have got two tables... Blog_entry & comment. i need to be able to search for a blog_entry + all the comments on that blog_entry..
at the moment i can search for the comments on the blog_entry using the FK in the comment table.
blog_entry INSERT INTO Blog_Entry VALUES(0001,'I love the Simpsons');
comments INSERT INTO Comment VALUES(0001,' No I hate the simpsons, cID 1000);
but i need to be able to search for the comments on comments
INSERT INTO Comment VALUES(0001,' How can you hate the simpsons, cID1000);
hopefully you can see the problem here, with only one comments table how can i get the search for the comment on the comment.. there’s nothing linking them... I could make a sub comments table, and use a FK (as with the blog_entry & first comment)
but then I would have to make another sub sub table to be able to get those comments on the first sub table... this would go on and on for each comment on comment.
you can see the cID1000 (comment PK) I can't use this to get the comment because its duplicating the PK...
So, I need to be able to search for the comments on comments… eg. I need to be able to search for blogger2, and any comments that were made on his comments.
Someone I know mention using recursion to get the comment on comment info, is this right ?
Hehe, I hope you understand what im asking here… the is my first exploration of SQL, so any tips, hints, would be most welcome….
Thanks loads…
PS: if there anything you don’t understand about what I have written, or what im asking… please say so…
I am trying to build the value off hierarchy that will be later inserted in the linage and Depth column. I am trying to do so using recursion . the rulles for recording the linages as as follows Lineage = parent.Lineage + Ltrim(Str(ParentID,6,0)) + '/'
here is my code below
with BuildHierarchy as ( SELECT AN.AccessID,AN.ChildID,AN.Child,AN.ParentID,AN.CGI D, 1 as Depth,AN.Lineage,AN.node,AN.PercentOwnership, AN.Notes FROM chart_hiera2 as AN WHERE AN.Depth Is Null and AN.AccessID = @accID union all SELECT AN.AccessID,AN.ChildID,AN.Child,AN.ParentID,AN.CGI D,Cast(AN.Depth as smallint) +1 ,Cast(BH.Lineage+ Ltrim(Str(AN.ParentID,6,0)) + '/' as varchar(255)),AN.node,AN.PercentOwnership, AN.Notes FROM chart_hiera2 as AN inner join BuildHierarchy BH on AN.ParentID=BH.ChildID WHERE AN.Depth>=0 AND AN.Lineage Is Not Null AND AN.Depth Is Null and AN.AccessID = @accID)--@accID --and T.AccessID = @accID) select * from BuildHierarchy
but it does not increment Depth or builds Lineage .What am I doing wrong?
Guys, I desperately need your help. what i need to do is call a function getdate to return dates recursively
like so classdate=getdate(class#, repeat, sportcategory,date) while (classdate <yearend) begin classdate=getdate(class#, repeat, sportcategory, classdate) end
I want to use the date returned and keep calling that function till the yearend is reached, to get a bunch of dates declare @startDate datetime
with cteStartDate as ( select x= classdate, repeat, class#, sportcategory, yearend from sports union all select x=getdate( classdate, repeat, yearend), repeat, class#, sportcategory, yearend
from cteStartDate where x < cteStartDate .yearend
)
I tried using cte for this, it only returns one date for everything, as opposed to an array of dates, how do i solve this problem.Any insight will be greatly apprecaited.
Hi there! I have an application that uses stored procedures wuth CTE statements to populate trees from database. Every second I need to populate 100-300 trees each one of them has 15-20 nodes. I checked those procedures with profiler and payed attention that populate procedure with CTE is slower that others (without CTE) per 1000 times! Would procedures with recursion faster than same ones with CTE? I am asking because I read somewhere that CTE is becomes slower while populating little chunks of data. Is that right and I should use recursions?
And second question: here the code -
Code Snippet
;WITH dt (Id, NodeText, PId, State, RowNumber) AS ( SELECT Id, NodeText, PId, State, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY Id) AS RowNumber FROM DataTable WHERE Id = 1
UNION ALL
SELECT d.Id, d.NodeText, d.PId, d.State, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY d.Id) AS RowNumber FROM DataTable AS d INNER JOIN dt ON dt.Id = d.PId )
SELECT * FROM dt
This is how I populate a tree with CTE. Could you give me some example how to do exactly same but with recursion?(without CTE). Thank you!
Hi Y'all,I receive an error while using recursion:The maximum recursion 100 has been exhausted before statement completion. Can someone tell me where i can alter the default value?Thanks in advance
I have a multi-level folders table, named folders with attributes of folder_id, parent_id and user_id, and have another table, users, contains all the user_id. I need to list all the users for each folder which has parent_id = 0 and its all sub-folders' users into one table. I have created a function to return a table with folder_id and user_id for one single folder. However, I don't know how to use this function to get the sub-folder's users and merge them together as one single table. Here is my function: CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[FolderUsers] (@fid int) RETURNS Table AS Return (select folder_id, f.user_id from folders f, users u where f.user_id = u.user_id and folder_id = @fid)Go where @fid is the top folder with parent_id = 0 at here, the next level sub-folder's parent_id would be = @fid. I am thinking to have recursive call from the parent_id = @fid that returns another table and have to concatenate to the called table. I have been thinking of store procedure, "insert into" and so on, but don't know how to implement it. Do you have any good inspiration for me? Thank you in advance!

I am not sure if select recursion is possible and thought I would throw this challenge to the dba community. The preference would be to create a view that does the work on the backend instead of writing frontend VB code.

I've question about how to handle structural datamodel changes in a datasource of PowerPivot. Suppose I'm developing a starmodel in SQL Server and sometimes a datatype changes or a name of a field changes in a table. It seems to me that PowerPivot handle this not gracefully as Analysis MD does (mostly). I received an error because of a wrong fieldname or even no error when a dattype changes in PowerPivot. Is this common or do I something wrong here. Does this mean that every time the datamodel changes the PowerPivot should be recreated? Or am I missing the clue here?
