I'm learning about PIVOT function and I want to try it in my DB, in the table DDOT
I have events (rows) made by users during X month Y year in the YYYYMM format.
id_ev iddate id_user ...
------------------------
1 201901 321
2 201902 654
3 201903 987
4 201901 321
5 201903 987
I'm basing my query on the MS Documentation and I'm not getting errors but I'm not able to fill it with the SUM of those unique events (users). In simple words I want to know how many users (unique) checked up each month (x axis) in the year (y axis). However, I'm getting NULL as result
YYYY jan feb mar
----------------------------
2019 NULL NULL NULL
I'm expecting a full table with what I mentionted before.
YYYY jan feb mar
----------------------------
2019 2 1 1
In the code I've tried with different aggregate functions but this block is the closest to a result from SQL.
CREATE TABLE ddot
(
id_ev int NOT NULL ,
iddate int NOT NULL ,
id_user int NOT NULL
);
INSERT INTO DDOT
(
[id_ev], [iddate], [id_user]
)
VALUES
(
1, 201901, 321
),
(
2, 201902, 654
),
(
3, 201903, 987
),
(
4, 201901, 321
),
(
5, 201903, 987
)
GO
SELECT *
FROM (
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT id_user) [TOT],
DATENAME(YEAR, CAST(iddate+'01' AS DATETIME)) [YYYY], --concat iddate 01 to get full date
DATENAME(MONTH, CAST(iddate+'01' AS DATETIME)) [MMM]
FROM DDOT
GROUP BY DATENAME(YEAR, CAST(iddate+'01' AS DATETIME)),
DATENAME(MONTH, CAST(iddate+'01' AS DATETIME))
) AS DOT_COUNT
PIVOT(
SUM([TOT])
FOR MMM IN (jan, feb, mar)
) AS PVT
Ideally you should be using an actual date in the iddate
column, and not a string (number?). We can workaround this using the string functions:
SELECT
CONVERT(varchar(4), LEFT(iddate, 4)) AS YYYY,
COUNT(CASE WHEN CONVERT(varchar(2), RIGHT(iddate, 2)) = '01' THEN 1 END) AS jan,
COUNT(CASE WHEN CONVERT(varchar(2), RIGHT(iddate, 2)) = '02' THEN 1 END) AS feb,
COUNT(CASE WHEN CONVERT(varchar(2), RIGHT(iddate, 2)) = '03' THEN 1 END) AS mar,
...
FROM DDOT
GROUP BY
CONVERT(varchar(4), LEFT(iddate, 4));
Note that if the iddate
column already be text, then we can remove all the ugly calls to CONVERT
above:
SELECT
LEFT(iddate, 4) AS YYYY,
COUNT(CASE WHEN RIGHT(iddate, 2) = '01' THEN 1 END) AS jan,
COUNT(CASE WHEN RIGHT(iddate, 2) = '02' THEN 1 END) AS feb,
COUNT(CASE WHEN RIGHT(iddate, 2) = '03' THEN 1 END) AS mar,
...
FROM DDOT
GROUP BY
LEFT(iddate, 4);
