Al fin luego de mucho luchar ya hallamos el resultado de esta inconveniente que muchos los usuarios de nuestro sitio presentan. Si tienes algo más que compartir no dudes en aportar tu conocimiento.
Solución:
Hay varias formas de transformar datos de varias filas en columnas.
Utilizando PIVOT
En SQL Server puede utilizar el PIVOT
función para transformar los datos de filas a columnas:
select Firstname, Amount, PostalCode, LastName, AccountNumber
from
(
select value, columnname
from yourtable
) d
pivot
(
max(value)
for columnname in (Firstname, Amount, PostalCode, LastName, AccountNumber)
) piv;
Ver demostración.
Pivote con número desconocido de columnnames
Si tiene un número desconocido de columnnames
que desea transponer, entonces puede usar SQL dinámico:
DECLARE @cols AS NVARCHAR(MAX),
@query AS NVARCHAR(MAX)
select @cols = STUFF((SELECT ',' + QUOTENAME(ColumnName)
from yourtable
group by ColumnName, id
order by id
FOR XML PATH(''), TYPE
).value('.', 'NVARCHAR(MAX)')
,1,1,'')
set @query = N'SELECT ' + @cols + N' from
(
select value, ColumnName
from yourtable
) x
pivot
(
max(value)
for ColumnName in (' + @cols + N')
) p '
exec sp_executesql @query;
Ver demostración.
Usando una función agregada
Si no desea utilizar el PIVOT
función, entonces puede utilizar una función agregada con un CASE
expresión:
select
max(case when columnname = 'FirstName' then value end) Firstname,
max(case when columnname = 'Amount' then value end) Amount,
max(case when columnname = 'PostalCode' then value end) PostalCode,
max(case when columnname = 'LastName' then value end) LastName,
max(case when columnname = 'AccountNumber' then value end) AccountNumber
from yourtable
Ver demostración.
Usando múltiples combinaciones
Esto también podría completarse usando múltiples combinaciones, pero necesitará alguna columna para asociar cada una de las filas que no tiene en sus datos de muestra. Pero la sintaxis básica sería:
select fn.value as FirstName,
a.value as Amount,
pc.value as PostalCode,
ln.value as LastName,
an.value as AccountNumber
from yourtable fn
left join yourtable a
on fn.somecol = a.somecol
and a.columnname = 'Amount'
left join yourtable pc
on fn.somecol = pc.somecol
and pc.columnname = 'PostalCode'
left join yourtable ln
on fn.somecol = ln.somecol
and ln.columnname = 'LastName'
left join yourtable an
on fn.somecol = an.somecol
and an.columnname = 'AccountNumber'
where fn.columnname = 'Firstname'
Este es más un método que un solo script, pero le brinda mucha más flexibilidad.
En primer lugar, hay 3 objetos:
- Tipo de TABLA definido por el usuario [
ColumnActionList
] -> contiene datos como parámetro - SP [
proc_PivotPrepare
] -> prepara nuestros datos - SP [
proc_PivotExecute
] -> ejecutar el script
CREAR TIPO [dbo].[ColumnActionList] COMO TABLA (

Al ejecutar la primera consulta (pasando la base de datos de origen y el nombre de la tabla) obtendrá una consulta de ejecución creada previamente para el segundo SP, todo lo que tiene que hacer es definir la columna de su fuente: + Estable + Valor (se usará para concentrar valores basados en eso) + Dim (columna que desea usar para pivotar)
¡Los nombres y tipos de datos se definirán automáticamente!
No puedo recomendarlo para ningún entorno de producción, pero funciona para solicitudes de BI ad hoc.
