Hi Tom,

I have the following situation. Please see the SQL's and DDL statements.

The question is: instead of 2 "INSERT INTO...SELECT" statements, is there any way I can do it in one shot?


SQL> CREATE TABLE x (
2 country VARCHAR2(30),
3 state VARCHAR2(10)
4 );

Table created.

SQL>
SQL> INSERT INTO x VALUES ('US', 'CA');

1 row created.

SQL> INSERT INTO x VALUES ('US', 'MA');

1 row created.

SQL> INSERT INTO x VALUES ('US', 'HI');

1 row created.

SQL> INSERT INTO x VALUES ('US', 'TX');

1 row created.

SQL>
SQL> commit;

Commit complete.

SQL>
SQL> CREATE TABLE y (
2 attribute VARCHAR2(30),
3 attribute_value VARCHAR2(30)
4 );

Table created.

SQL> INSERT INTO y
2 SELECT DISTINCT country
3 FROM x;
INSERT INTO y
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00947: not enough values


SQL> INSERT INTO y
2 SELECT DISTINCT 'Country', country
3 FROM x;

1 row created.

If state is not UNIQUE, then:

ops$tkyte@ORA9IR2> insert
2 when (rn1=1) then into y (attribute,attribute_value) values( 'Country', country )
3 when (rn2=1) then into y (attribute,attribute_value) values( 'State', state )
4 select country, state,
5 row_number() over (partition by country order by state) rn1,
6 row_number() over (partition by state order by state) rn2
7 from x
8 /

5 rows created.

ops$tkyte@ORA9IR2>
ops$tkyte@ORA9IR2> select * from y;

ATTRIBUTE ATTRIBUTE_VALUE
------------------------------ ------------------------------
Country US
State CA
State HI
State MA
State TX

ops$tkyte@ORA9IR2>
ops$tkyte@ORA9IR2> rollback;

Rollback complete.


but if state is in fact unique -- the following would be more efficient


ops$tkyte@ORA9IR2> insert
2 when (rn=1) then into y (attribute,attribute_value) values( 'Country', country )
3 when (rn>0) then into y (attribute,attribute_value) values( 'State', state )
4 select country, state,
5 row_number() over (partition by country order by state) rn
6 from x
7 /

5 rows created.

ops$tkyte@ORA9IR2> select * from y;

Country US
State CA
State HI

Turning Rows Into Columns

A reader, February 05, 2005 - 9:05 pm UTC

Here's what I have:

CREATE TABLE x (
company VARCHAR2(20),
attribute VARCHAR2(20),
attribute_val VARCHAR2(20)
);

INSERT INTO x VALUES ('IBM', 'Country', 'US');
INSERT INTO x VALUES ('IBM', 'State', 'NY');
INSERT INTO x VALUES ('IBM', 'City', 'New York');

INSERT INTO x VALUES ('HP', 'Country', 'US');
INSERT INTO x VALUES ('HP', 'State', 'CA');
INSERT INTO x VALUES ('HP', 'City', 'Palo Alto');

INSERT INTO x VALUES ('Google', 'Country', 'US');
INSERT INTO x VALUES ('Google', 'State', 'CA');
INSERT INTO x VALUES ('Google', 'City', 'Mountain View');

commit;

SELECT * FROM x;

COMPANY ATTRIBUTE ATTRIBUTE_VAL
-------------------- -------------------- -------------
IBM Country US
IBM State NY
IBM City New York
HP Country US
HP State CA
HP City Palo Alto
Google Country US
Google State CA
Google City Mountain View


How do I write a SQL so the above output turned into the following?

IBM US NY New York
HP US CA Palo Alto
Google US CA Mountain View

if you have my book "Effective Oracle by Design", you'll know exactly why

a) i despise this model
b) how to query it (and why it is so hard to query)


select company,
max(decode(attribute, 'Country', attribute_val)),
.... same for other two ATTRIBUTES THAT SHOULD BE ATTRIBUTES, not hidden
.... mystifying data that you cannot query without doing silly thinks like
.... this....
from table
group by company;



Su Baba, March 29, 2005 - 2:14 pm UTC

In reference to the above example, we have a similar situation. In our application, we have the design which captures all customer attributes/attribute value pairs in a table. Let's call this table customer_attributes. A simplified version of the table has the following columns:

CREATE TABLE customer_attributes (
customer_id NUMBER,
attribute_id NUMBER,
attr_text VARCHAR2(500),
attr_value NUMBER
);

An attribute, based on the definition stored in a master table, can be defined to be one of the following data types: string, number, or date. Attributes are stored in customer_attributes in the following way:

data type column
--------- ------------- ----------------------------------------------
string attr_text
date attr_text Stored as a VARCHAR in this format
'yyyymmdd hh24:mi:ss'
number attr_value


Because anyone who uses our application can add any numbers of new attributes to the system, our application cannot make any assumptions regarding the number and the types of attributes that the application will eventually have. As such, it has to be kind of flexible in handling attributes and user queries.

One of the PL/SQL codes that we have is to build a dynamic SQL to handle the question:

Return me all the customers that satisfy the following attribute/value pairs:

e.g.
attribute_id operator value data type
-------------- ----------- --------------------- ----------------------
4 = 'US', 'GB' string
11 = 'ABC Corp%', 'XYZ Inc%' string
21 BETWEEN 1000, 20000000 number
708 > '20020819000000' date

Based on the above input, the PL/SQL code generates the following dynamic SQL. Note that when there are mulitple attribute values within an attribute, it's considered an "OR" condition (e.g. 'US' or 'GB').

select
distinct t.customer_id, c.customer_name, t.rank
from (select party_id, sum(rank) rank
from (select distinct t.customer_id,1 rank
from customer_attributes t
where t.attribute_id = 4 and
attr_text like 'US'
union all
select distinct t.customer_id,1 rank
from customer_attributes t
where t.attribute_id = 4 and
attr_text like 'GB'
union all
select distinct t.customer_id,1 rank
from customer_attributes t
where t.attribute_id = 11 and
attr_text like 'ABC Corp%'
union all
select distinct t.customer_id,1 rank
from customer_attributes t
where t.attribute_id = 11 and
attr_text like 'XYZ Inc%'
union all
select distinct t.customer_id,1 rank
from customer_attributes t
where t.attribute_id = 21 and
attr_value BETWEEN 1000 AND 20000000
union all
select distinct t.customer_id,1 rank
from customer_attributes t
where t.attribute_id = 708 and
attr_text > '20020819000000'
)
group by party_id
) t,
customers c
WHERE t.customer_id = c.customer_id
order by 2 desc;


We're not using bind variables in this SQL. The question I have for this design is: is there any points in rewriting the dynamic SQL so that it will use bind variables? There will be so many different combinations of the SQL that having bind variables probably won't be useful at all?

Can you please advise on the design as well as using the bind variables in this kind of situation? Thanks.



Su Baba, March 29, 2005 - 4:20 pm UTC

We sell our application to customers. Every customer that buys our application will have their own implementation. This means that we need to accomodate for different customer requirements, which entail creation of custom attributes. Because of this, we need to have the flexibility in our application.

I have two separate questions:

(1) What is the proper way to design this kind of application in which attribute sets will be different across customer implmentations?

(2) We always have a common set of attributes which we can define a database column per attribute. How do we deal with the other set of attributes that are not common? Aren't we back to the dynamic SQL option? SHould we be using bind variables in that case?

Tom Kyte
March 29, 2005 - 5:06 pm UTC

1) i'm not fond of any of them, but the use of say "20 varchar2" columns and "20 date" columns and "20 number" columns (20 is number drawn from thin air) to be used is common, allows for indexing and can easily let you create views to facilitate ad-hoc queries

you use vc1..vc20, dt1..dt20, num1..num20 as your "flex fields"

2) dynamic sql is one option, yes and you can certainly (must certainly) bind dynamic sql.

declare
cursor cur1 is select col1, col2 from t1;
var1 cur1%rowtype;
begin
open cur1;
loop
fetch cur1 into var1;
execute immediate('insert into t2 values(var1)');
end loop;

Tom Kyte

why are you using dynamic sql??????????


why is this code actually???


insert into t2 (c1,c2) select col1, col2 from t;


that is all this should be, nothing more.

This is just an simple example to try a concept of a
more complex situation with tables with many, many columns.
too many to enumerate in the paranthesis.

is there a way to map the values of columns from a
%rowtype variable into a table without listing them in
the paranthesis, may by use of dbms_sql or something

Tom Kyte
September 07, 2005 - 7:32 am UTC

plsql record types - NO

they are known only to plsql. Using STATIC sql, absolutely, 100%.

You cannot dynamically access a record even in PLSQL, let alone SQL.

This works. Suppose t2 has one additional column type date
as the first column compared to t1.
t1 is (col1,col2)
t2 is (col0, col1,col2)
is there a way to
insert into t2
<var_date> and the remaining as the record type from t1

Tom Kyte
September 07, 2005 - 1:55 pm UTC

did you read the referenced article?

reader

A reader, September 07, 2005 - 2:18 pm UTC

Yes. Good article on peformance tuning too.

I can create a record type for t1
another record type for t2
assign value of each column from t1.record
to t2.record. It works

I was trying to know if there is a simpler way
to assign values from one record type to another

Tom Kyte
September 07, 2005 - 2:46 pm UTC

why are you creating a new record?? not sure what you are doing there (the reference to the article was to show how to insert using a record that doesn't match the table

insert into ( select c1, c2 from t2 ) values VAR1;

reader

A reader, September 07, 2005 - 3:50 pm UTC

t1 has 2 columns
t2 has 3 columns
I am trying to insert into t2 values of 2 columns from t1
and a addition value sysdate in the third column

I create var1 record type t1 . Get values from t1 into var1
I create var2 record type t2.
Transfer var1 to var2 column by columns <=== is there a simpler way
assign var2.3rd column = sysdate
insert var2 to t2

Tom Kyte
September 07, 2005 - 7:33 pm UTC

so, select sysdate in the query on t1 - t1 now has three columns.


use one thing.

Data Model and Design Questions

A reader, October 18, 2005 - 7:46 pm UTC

I have a few questions in response to your anwser to Su Baba's question
posted on March 29, 2005 regarding custom attributes. You said:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
"1) i'm not fond of any of them, but the use of say "20 varchar2" columns and "20
date" columns and "20 number" columns (20 is number drawn from thin air) to be
used is common, allows for indexing and can easily let you create views to
facilitate ad-hoc queries

you use vc1..vc20, dt1..dt20, num1..num20 as your 'flex fields'"
------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. How does this data model handle attributes with multiple values?
2. Let's say if every attribute is a searchable field. For example,
I may want to ask a question like

"Give me all the customers that are based in US and in California
(that's two separate attributes) and have an annual revenue greater
than $2 million?"

To run a search like this efficiently, I may have to index every
attribute in the table. If I have 100 attributes, I will need to
have at least 100 indexes. Would there be any problem for a table
to have 100 indexes. Is it even advisable to index the table like
that?

3. Let's say some of the attribute sources come from an external
application (within the same database) which my application can
only query but not doing anything else (i.e. no triggers, no
materialized views created on the tables in the external
application). In other words, this portion of my attribute
table is no more than a denormalized table.

In order to populate my attribute table, I'll need to have a
background process that updates my attribute value columns on
a regular basis. Can this update be done in a single UPDATE
statement given that an attribute can possibly have multiple
values (as mentioned in #1 above)?



Tom Kyte
October 19, 2005 - 6:50 am UTC

1) don't know what you mean. This allows an "entity" to have "some flexible attributes". If the entity has a 1:M relationship to something, you need another table (no, not fond of varrays and a nested table is - another table)

2) time to get a data model together in my opinion. "generic" is really "cool". generic is also slow, hard to maintain, inefficient, .........


You would actually need many many many more than 100 indexes - you would not be using bitmap indexes (assuming OLTP here - if not, then maybe you could use bitmaps). So, you would need lots of combinations of concatenated indexes.

this goes back to understanding the data and what questions you shall be asking of the data.

3) I would not call it denormalized necessarily - you are not necessarily repeating the data. Why would you copy it over if you just need to read it? databases were born to join.

see "Insert and Update from a Record"

--------------------------------------------------------

Tom your article does not show how to handlce dup val on index exception when using "Insert and Update from a Record" .

Secondly is this kind of insert and update faster then a regular insert and update using column instead of a record.

Thanks


Tom Kyte
October 20, 2005 - 8:08 am UTC

why would an article on insert/update from a record pick out "dup_val_on_index" in particular??

handling dup_val_on_index is not special or different for this.

This feature of plsql is purely to let you save keystrokes, under the covers, everything is converted into individual column references again.

columns into rows using sql*loader

Thirumaran, October 25, 2005 - 11:17 am UTC

Tom,

I am using Oracle 10g R2. I am working on a prototype.

example:
-----------
Table: codes_t
Type_code varchar2(8) not null,
Code_code varchar2(8) not null,
short_description varchar2(50) not null,
Description varchar2(2000) not null,
Description2 varchar2(2000) ,
Description3 varchar2(2000),
Description4 varchar2(2000),
Description5 varchar2(2000))

Type_code Code_code Short_description Description
--------- --------- ----------------- -----------
COLOR BLUE BLUE COLOR THIS IS .....
COLOR RED RED COLOR SOME TEXT ....
-----------------------------------------------------------
simillarly for Description2 to Description5 the description text is entered.

i am using sql*loader to load data into a normalized table
the table is split into 2 tables (COLUMN based to ROW_based design)

A) codes_t & B) Code_desc_t

Codes_t
-------
PK_code_id number primary key,
Type_code varchar2(8) not null,
Code_code varchar2(8) not null,
short_desc varchar2(50) not null,
Desc varchar2(2000) not null
------------------------------------------------------------
sample data
PK_code_id Type_code Code_code short_desc Desc
---------- --------- --------- ---------- -----
1 COLOR BLUE BLUE_COLOR sometext..
2 COLOR RED RED_COLOR sometext..
------------------------------------------------------------
Code_Desc_T
-----------
PK_desc_id number primary key,
FK_code_id number not null, --(foreign key ref codes_t)
Desc_column varchar2(50) ,
Desc_text varchar2(2000))

sample example Data for this table "code_desc_t" after loading
------------------------------------------------------------
PK_desc_id FK_code_id Desc_column Desc_text
---------- ---------- ------------- ---------
101 1 DESCRIPTION2 Description2 text..
102 1 DESCRIPTION3 Description3 text..
103 1 DESCRIPTION4 Description4 text..
....
------------------------------------------------------------

1) Is it a good design practice to follow column based design ? pro's and cons will be helpfull
2) using sql*loader how can i load data into code_desc_t table as mentioned inthe sample example.
if not possible with sql*loader is ther any other alternate solution
3)How to maintain the foreign key relationship in code_desc_t (fk_code_id)

Thanks In adv
Thirumaran

1) nope, don't like it at all - you should have a table "colors" with red, blue, green. Not a single lookup table for EVERYTHING, but a single lookup table PER THING.

You need to have foreign keys - you won't be able to have foreign keys using a lookup table like this. Very bad practice.

It'll be a mess.

2) simple delimited data - look at ulcase1.ctl in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/demo for example.

3) now you understand #1 :) you need a table per lookup, not a single lookup table for everything.




columns into rows using sql*loader

Thirumaran, October 26, 2005 - 11:03 am UTC

Tom,

A) I agree with you on your Design comments
"you should have a table "colors" with red, blue,
green. Not a single lookup table for EVERYTHING, but a single lookup table PER THING."

1) I need to create NEW LOOKUP's dynamically during runtime, so this design was considered. With the splitted table approach "single lookup table PER TABLE" i believe i will not be able to achieve this. Seeking your valuable advice in this regards.

B)As suggested by you
#1) "You need to have foreign keys - you won't be able to have foreign keys using a lookup table like this."
#3)"now you understand #1 :)you need a table per lookup, not a single lookup table for everything."

B1) I am bit confused how to prototype/achive this scenario explained in point (#1)&(#3) above. A Pointer in the right direction with examples will be appreciated.

B2) ref: </code> http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:::::P11_QUESTION_ID:491314814449 <code>
Quotes from this link "If transactional integrity is meaningful to you across these records, you'll NOT
be using SQLLDR."

please through more light with examples on points B1 & B2 i believe it is contradictory, whether transactional integrity can be achieved using SQLLDR.

Thanks
Thirumaran








Tom Kyte
October 27, 2005 - 3:14 am UTC

a1) why? you do not know your design at development time?

My advice would be to ask "why" and understand if this is really needed.


b) you need to have foreign keys from your tables that reference these lookups. If you have all lookups in a single table - then enforcing RI is very hard, your foreign key would have to be "two" columns - the "name" column AND the id - but the name column would always be constant:

create table t
( ....,
lookup_name varchar2(10) default 'COLOR' check (lookup_name='COLOR'),
lookup_id number,
constraint lookup_fk foreign key(lookup_name,lookup_id) references lookups
)
/


else, you could have a color pointing to a type of banana or something -- it would be "a waste".



I don't know what you mean by with that referenced link? The poster in that link wanted "these N records loaded as a transaction", sqlldr loads records - not "groups of records as a transaction"


Changing columsn to rows

Robin, November 03, 2006 - 3:37 pm UTC

I understand what you're doing here, but can't seem to adapt it to my need. I have a table with two columns, basically listing an school ID (varchar2) and then holiday(date). A school can have as many holidays as it wants (for example, one might take off Columbus day and others won't.

What I'm trying to do is create a view that includes the org's profile data in a record with the org's holiday. For example:

ORGID, ORGNAME, PRINCIPAL, SY_BEGINDATE, HOL, HOL, HOL, HOL, SY_ENDDATE

One school might have 1 holiday while another has 20 so the school with 1 holiday would have NULL underneath the other 19 columns.

Is there any clean, semi-easy way to do this? I've tried using DECODE (which is not pretty because there's not a fixed number of holidays) and UNION ALL. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Tom Kyte
November 04, 2006 - 12:15 pm UTC

you would have to

a) run a query to get the distinct set of all holiday dates.

b) so you can use those values to create another query


select orgid,
orgname,
principal,
max( decode( datecol, to_date( 'xx-yyy-zzzz' ), 1 ) ) "XX-YYY-ZZZZ",
....
from t
group by orgid, orgname, principal


where xx-yyy-zzzz are your date values retrieved from a)

Not quite sure how...

Robin, November 06, 2006 - 5:35 pm UTC

to get the date values retrieved from a) into query b) without making a join of some sort (which isn't in your query)

Here's a quick example of what I did:

select t.orgid,
max( decode(t.datecol, to_date(a.datecol), 1 ) ) as "XX-YYY-ZZZZ"
t, a
where t.orgid = a.orgid
group by t.orgid

THe results are:

ORGID 'XX-YYY-ZZZZ'
T0001 1
T0002 1
T0003 1




Tom Kyte
November 07, 2006 - 4:27 pm UTC

i do not understand what you are saying.

but really - in order to generate a query with N columns - you need N columns, that is why I suggest a "two step"

one will discover the number of columns
which can be used to build query #2

I'll try to make it clearer

I don't believe there's a way to turn columns into rows

??? it is very straight forward. 

I think I get the problem here, but clueless on the solution too.

Tom,

I work with Robin, so I understand the problem she is having. She is kind of puzzled by the responses all through this thread, so she asked me to take a stab at it. Robin has been struggling with this one for a week now, and I haven't been able to give her any help on this one - I just can't get my head around how to make this flat.
The example she gave above is a pretty good representation of the situation, where we have a holiday table that can have anywhere from one to lots of rows per org (two column table, org is varchar2 and holiday is date). Additionally, we have a profile table that contains information pertaining to each org (this is a single row per org). We need to get the org profile information combined with all the holidays for that org into a single outputted row through a query or a view, so that it is flat.
An example would be if org T001 (which has profile information such as street address, city, state, zip, principal (fname, mname, lname, postname), etc) has 3 rows in the holiday table (09/05/2006, 10/11/2006, 11/10/2006) we need to get the profile information and flatten the 3 holiday rows out to combine in a single outputted row (T001, 1 Main Street, Anytown, Yourstate, 05495, John, Q, Principal, , 09/05/2006, 10/11/2006,11/10/2006). This will obviously not output the same length for each org as some orgs will have more holidays than others. It is possible (not likely but possible) that an org may have no holidays.
Not sure if that helps any, but I told her I'd take a stab at explaining it and see if that shook anything loose for you.
Thanks a lot for your time - I know you're busy travelling right now, and we appreciate your taking the time out to help us. If I missed the solution in this thread (or another, we've read so many :-D) I apologize, I'm just not seeing it.

but it is exactly what I said

you need to run a query to figure out the columns you will ultimately have.

then you can write the max(decode()) based on that output.

Hope this helps:

Pivot Query
A pivot query is when you want to take some data such as:

C1        C2      C3 
-----     -----   ------  
a1        b1      x1      
a1        b1      x2      
a1        b1      x3      
…

and you would like to display it as:

C1        C2      C3(1)   C3(2)  C3(3)
-----     -----   ------  -----  ----
a1        b1      x1      x2     x3
…


Basically – turning rows into columns. For example taking the distinct jobs within a department and making them be columns so the output would look like:

DEPTNO     JOB_1     JOB_2     JOB_3
---------- --------- --------- ---------
        10 CLERK     MANAGER   PRESIDENT
        20 ANALYST   ANALYST   CLERK
        30 CLERK     MANAGER   SALESMAN

instead of

DEPTNO     JOB
---------- ---------
        10 CLERK
        10 MANAGER
        10 PRESIDENT
        20 ANALYST
        20 CLERK
        20 MANAGER
        30 CLERK
        30 MANAGER
        30 SALESMAN

I’m going to show two examples for pivots. The first will be another implementation of the preceding question. The second shows how to pivot any result set in a generic fashion and gives you a template for doing so.

In the first case let’s say you wanted to show the top 3 salary earners in each department as COLUMNS. That is – the query would return exactly 1 row per department and the row would have 4 columns – the DEPTNO, the name of the highest paid employee in the department, the name of the next highest paid and so on. Using this new functionality – this is almost easy (before these functions – this was virtually impossible):

ops$tkyte@DEV816> select deptno,
  2             max(decode(seq,1,ename,null)) highest_paid,
  3             max(decode(seq,2,ename,null)) second_highest,
  4             max(decode(seq,3,ename,null)) third_highest
  5    from ( SELECT deptno, ename,
  6                  row_number() OVER
  7                     (PARTITION BY deptno
  8                          ORDER BY sal desc NULLS LAST ) seq
  9             FROM emp )
 10  where seq <= 3
 11  group by deptno
 12  /

    DEPTNO HIGHEST_PA SECOND_HIG THIRD_HIGH
---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
        10 KING       CLARK      MILLER
        20 SCOTT      FORD       JONES
        30 BLAKE      ALLEN      TURNER

That simply created an inner result set that had a sequence assigned to employees BY DEPTNO in order of SAL. The decode in the outer query keeps only rows with sequences 1, 2, or 3 and assigns them to the correct "column". The group by gets rid of the redundant rows and we are left with our collapsed result.  It may be easier to understand what I mean by that if you see the result set without the group by and max:

scott@TKYTE816> select deptno,
  2             (decode(seq,1,ename,null)) highest_paid,
  3             (decode(seq,2,ename,null)) second_highest,
  4             (decode(seq,3,ename,null)) third_highest
  5    from ( SELECT deptno, ename,
  6                  row_number() OVER
  7                     (PARTITION BY deptno
  8                          ORDER BY sal desc NULLS LAST ) seq
  9             FROM emp )
 10  where seq <= 3
 11  /

    DEPTNO HIGHEST_PA SECOND_HIG THIRD_HIGH
---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
        10 KING
        10            CLARK
        10                       MILLER
        20 SCOTT
        20            FORD
        20                       JONES
        30 ALLEN
        30            BLAKE
        30                       MARTIN

9 rows selected.

The MAX aggregate function will be applied by the GROUP BY column DEPTNO.  In any given DEPTNO above only one row will have a non null value for HIGHTEST_PAID, the remaining rows in that group will always be NULL.  The MAX function will pick out the non-null row and keep that for us.  Hence the group by and MAX will “collapse” our result set, removing the NULL values from it and giving us what we want.

In general, if you have a table T with columns C1, C2 and you would like to get a result like:

C1     C2(1)   C2(2)  ….  C2(N)

Where column C1 is to stay "cross record" and column C2 will be pivoted to be "in record" – the values of C2 are to become columns instead of rows – you will generate a query of the form:

Select c1
       max(decode(rn,1,c2,null)) c2_1,
       max(decode(rn,2,c2,null)) c2_2,
       …
       max(decode(rn,N,c2,null)) c2_N
  from ( select c1, c2 
                row_number() over ( partition by C1
                                    order by <something> ) rn
           from T
          <some predicate>
       )
 group by C1 

. In the above example, C1 was simply DEPTNO and C2 was ENAME.  Since we ordered by SAL DESC, the first three columns we retrieved where the top three paid employees in that department (bearing in mind that if four people made the top three, we would of course lose one).

The second example is a more generic "I want to pivot my result set".  Here, instead of having a single column C1 to anchor on and a single column C2 to pivot – we’ll look at the more general case where C1 is a set of columns as is C2.  As it turns out, this is very similar to the above.  Suppose you want to report by JOB and DEPTNO the employees in that job and their salary.  The report needs to have the employees going ACROSS the page as columns however, not down the page – the same with their salaries.  Additionally, the employees need to appear from left to right in order of their salary.  The steps would be:

scott@TKYTE816> select max(count(*)) from emp group by deptno, job;

MAX(COUNT(*))
-------------
            4

That tells us the number of columns, now we can generate the query:

scott@TKYTE816> select deptno, job,
  2         max( decode( rn, 1, ename, null )) ename_1,
  3         max( decode( rn, 1, sal, null )) sal_1,
  4         max( decode( rn, 2, ename, null )) ename_2,
  5         max( decode( rn, 2, sal, null )) sal_2,
  6         max( decode( rn, 3, ename, null )) ename_3,
  7         max( decode( rn, 3, sal, null )) sal_3,
  8         max( decode( rn, 4, ename, null )) ename_4,
  9         max( decode( rn, 4, sal, null )) sal_4
 10    from (  select deptno, job, ename, sal,
 11                   row_number() over ( partition by deptno, job
 12                                           order by sal, ename ) rn
 13              from emp
 14             )
 15  group by deptno, job
 16  /

DEPTNO JOB       ENAME_1 SAL_1 ENAME_2   SAL_2 ENAME_3    SAL_3 ENAME_ SAL_4
------ --------- ------  ----- --------- ----- ---------- ----- ------ -----
    10 CLERK     MILLER   1300

9 rows selected.

In general, to pivot a result set, we can generalize further.  If you have a set of columns C1, C2, C3, … CN and you want to keep columns C1 .. Cx “cross record” (going down the page) and Cx+1 … CN “in record” (across the page), you can:

Select C1, C2, … CX,
       max(decode(rn,1,C{X+1},null)) cx+1_1,…max(decode(rn,1,CN,null)) CN_1
       max(decode(rn,2,C{X+1},null)) cx+1_2,…max(decode(rn,1,CN,null)) CN_2
       …
       max(decode(rn,N,c{X+1},null)) cx+1_N,…max(decode(rn,1,CN,null)) CN_N
  from ( select C1, C2, … CN
                row_number() over ( partition by C1, C2, … CX
                                    order by <something> ) rn
           from T
          <some predicate>
       )
 group by C1, C2, … CX

In the example, we used C1, C2 = DEPTNO, JOB and C3, C4 = ENAME, SAL

One other thing we must know is the MAXIMUM number of rows per partition we anticipate. This will dictate the number of columns we will be generating. Without it – we cannot pivot. SQL needs to know the number of columns and there is no way around that fact. That leads us into the next more generic  example of pivoting. If we do not know the number of total columns until runtime, we’ll have to use dynamic SQL to deal with the fact that the SELECT list is variable. We can use PL/SQL to demonstrate how to do this – and end up with a generic routine that can be reused whenever you need a pivot. This routine will have the following specification:

scott@TKYTE816> create or replace package my_pkg
  2  as
  3      type refcursor is ref cursor;
  4      type array is table of varchar2(30);
  5
  6      procedure pivot( p_max_cols       in number   default NULL,
  7                       p_max_cols_query in varchar2 default NULL,
  8                       p_query          in varchar2,
  9                       p_anchor         in array,
 10                       p_pivot          in array,
 11                       p_cursor in out refcursor );
 12  end;
 13  /

Package created.

Here, you must send in either P_MAX_COLS or P_MAX_COLS_QUERY.  SQL needs to know the number of columns in a query and this parameter will allow us to build a query with the proper number of columns.  The value you should send in here will be the output of a query similar to:

scott@TKYTE816> select max(count(*)) from emp group by deptno, job;

That is – it is the count of the discrete values that are currently in ROWS that we will put into COLUMNS.  You can either send in the query to get this number, or the number if you already know it.

The P_QUERY parameter is simply the query that gathers your data together.  Using the last example from above the query would be:

 10    from (  select deptno, job, ename, sal,
 11                   row_number() over ( partition by deptno, job
 12                                           order by sal, ename ) rn
 13              from emp
 14             )

The next two inputs are arrays of column names.  The P_ANCHOR tells us what columns will stay CROSS RECORD (down the page) and P_PIVOT states the columns that will go IN RECORD (across the page).  In our example from above, P_ANCHOR = ( ‘DEPTNO’, ‘JOB’ ) and P_PIVOT = (‘ENAME’,’SAL’).  Skipping over the implementation for a moment, the entire call put together might look like this:

scott@TKYTE816> variable x refcursor
scott@TKYTE816> set autoprint on

scott@TKYTE816> begin
  2      my_pkg.pivot
  3      ( p_max_cols_query => 'select max(count(*)) from emp 
                                 group by deptno,job',
  4        p_query => 'select deptno, job, ename, sal,
  5                           row_number() over ( partition by deptno, job
  6                                               order by sal, ename ) rn
  7                      from emp a',
  8        p_anchor => my_pkg.array( 'DEPTNO','JOB' ),
  9        p_pivot  => my_pkg.array( 'ENAME', 'SAL' ),
 10        p_cursor => :x );
 11  end;
 12  /

As you can see – that dynamically rewrote our query using the generalized template we developed.  The implementation of the package body is straightforward:

Package body created.

It only does a little string manipulation to rewrite the query and open a REF CURSOR dynamically.  In the likely event the query had a predicate with constants and such in it, we set cursor sharing on and then back off for the parse of this query to facilitate bind variables (see the section on tuning for more information on that).  Now we have a fully parsed query that is ready to be fetched from.

I think this query gives Robin the results she wants - just extend the "max(decode ..." columns out to 40, rather than 6 and change the seq <= 6 to <= 40.

SELECT orgid, orgname, sybeg, syend_proj,
max(DECODE(seq,1,hol,null)) hol_1,
max(DECODE(seq,2,hol,null)) hol_2,
max(DECODE(seq,3,hol,null)) hol_3,
max(DECODE(seq,4,hol,null)) hol_4,
max(DECODE(seq,5,hol,null)) hol_5,
max(DECODE(seq,6,hol,null)) hol_6
FROM (SELECT orgid, orgname, sybeg, syend_proj, hol,
row_number()
OVER (PARTITION BY orgid
ORDER BY hol desc NULLS LAST) seq
FROM (select sp.orgid, orgname, sybeg, syend_proj, hol from school_profile sp, school_holiday sh where sp.orgid = sh.orgid ))
WHERE seq <= 6
group by orgid, orgname, sybeg, syend_proj;

oops

Keith, November 14, 2006 - 3:23 pm UTC

Sorry, probably shouldn't have the "desc" in the "OVER(PARTTITION" clause, should be:


OVER (PARTITION BY orgid
ORDER BY hol NULLS LAST) seq


Thank you very much Tom and Keith!

Bill S., November 15, 2006 - 12:06 pm UTC

I think that was just what the doctor ordered (the additional explanation, Tom, and the code example from Keith). We seem to be on the right track now, and Robin and I appreciate the time you guys put in.

This kind of collaboration and information is why I not only come here daily, but also recommend this site to anyone I know of who works with Oracle.

transpose over 200 rows into columns

Nat, December 19, 2006 - 9:00 pm UTC

TOM,
Is it possible to transpose over 200 rows into columns. I have tried with Pivot query, but the data is not coming correctly.

Here is the test data that I am having in a table and trying the data transposed to the dates.
Tried pivot but did not work as the data was not consistent with rundate may or maynot have ertread for some premise.

The data I am looking for should be transposed based on PREMISE and RUNDATE.

PREMISE ROUTEID 20040614 20040615 20040616 20040617 20040618 .......................
180604 03M03T00 5383 5403 - 5495 5526 .........
180609 03M03T00 9640 9722 - 9761 9905 ....
180614 03M03T00 11217 11256 - 11328 11350 ....
.....
....
....

Here is what I have, but while executing I found that after 18 iterations building up to 18 rundate columns
(while checking in debug mode), the l_stmt fails saying 'undeclared identifier "l_stmt"'.
Is there any other way to generate if I have more number of columns to generate.



CREATE OR REPLACE package pivot
as
type rc is ref cursor;
procedure data ( p_cursor in out rc );
end;
/



create or replace package body pivot as
procedure data(p_cursor in out rc )
is
l_stmt long;
begin


l_stmt := 'select routeid,premise ';
for x in ( select distinct rundate from testread order by 1 )
loop
l_stmt := l_stmt ||
', max(decode(rundate,' || x.rundate ||
', ertread )) ' || x.rundate;
end loop;
l_stmt := l_stmt || ' from testread group by routeid,premise order by premise';


open p_cursor for l_stmt;
end;

end;
/


Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

why don't you

a) provide a create table
b) A COUPLE (FEW) inserts into it
c) a static SQL query that you think should work

and we'll debug it from there.

just saying "it doesn't work" is not very useful

More turning COLUMNS into ROWS...

Robert, December 20, 2006 - 5:58 pm UTC

Tom,

I have a tricky turning "columns into rows" predicament...

Here are the steps to set up my problem...

----------------------------
-- TARGET table to store list of account_ids
----------------------------
create table demo_account_list
(
account_id number
)
/

----------------------------
-- SOURCE table of account_ids
----------------------------
create table demo_account_sources
(
acct_1 number
, acct_2 number
, acct_3 number
, acct_4 number
)
/

----------------------------
-- Populate the account_id SOURCE table
----------------------------
insert into demo_account_sources values (1,2,3,4);
insert into demo_account_sources values (13,22,433,44261);
insert into demo_account_sources values (10,342,32342,33443);
insert into demo_account_sources values (15,26,737,48);

commit;

------------------------------
-- Want to capture only the EVEN account_ids
-- This doesn't work!
------------------------------
insert into demo_account_list
(
select acct_1, acct_2, acct_3, acct_4
from demo_account_sources
-----------------------------
-- Want to load only EVEN account_ids
-----------------------------
where mod(acct_1,2) = 0
or mod(acct_2,2) = 0
or mod(acct_3,2) = 0
or mod(acct_4,2) = 0
)
/

----------------------------
Of course, the above query returns this error...
----------------------------
insert into demo_account_list
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00913: too many values
----------------------------

My question is, how can I write this query in such a way that I can select >1 rows yet insert into a single column?

Thanks,

Robert

does that help you get started... 

That's it!!!!

Tom,

That is exactly what I was looking for!
(I just now saw your post from 'November 13, 2006' in this same thread where you describe the same solution).

For the record, my purpose for this is that I have to scan a very large table which contains several 'account_id' columns and I only want to make a single pass through it instead of one pass for each 'account_id' column.

Thanks!

Robert.

Tom,
Here is the test scenario that you have asked for. I compiled and ran in debug mode.
After generating about 15 days of rundate in the l_stmt in the loop,
it gave an undeclared identifier 'l_stmt' error.

create table testdata (rundate varchar2(8),
routeid varchar2(8),
premise varchar2(8),
ertread number);




select routeid,premise,max(decode(rundate,'20040614',ertread)) "20040614",
max(decode(rundate,'20040615',ertread)) "20040615",max(decode(rundate,'20040616',ertread)) "20040616",
max(decode(rundate,'20040617',ertread)) "20040617",max(decode(rundate,'20040618',ertread)) "20040618",
max(decode(rundate,'20040619',ertread)) "20040619",max(decode(rundate,'20040620',ertread)) "20040620"
from testdata where premise between 180600 and 180660 and rundate between '20040614' and '20040620'
group by routeid,premise;


The results are piped

ROUTEID|PREMISE|20040614|20040615|20040616|20040617|20040618|20040619|20040620

Since the dates are more than the above, the below procedure should generated the number of days,
but unfortunately it gives an error and does not execute. Please let me know what is wrong with this package. Thanks.

i'm not going to sit here and create a sqlldr control file to load your data.

but it seems to work OK with more than 15

test cases are short
concise
yet 100% complete


I fail to see how the error could be "l_stmt undefined" - that would be a COMPILE time error (meaning you have no need for any data at all, procedure never compiled)

Transpose over 200 rows into columns

Tom,
Thanks for your help. I was able to execute the package as it took some time executing the procedure. The compilation was successful but when executing the package in debug mode, it gave me the error. But when executing without debug mode, I was able to get the desired results. Thanks once again for all your help.

Hi Tom,

I have a table with the following data:
create table t1(column_1 varchar2(30),

Sorry about posting twice for the same stuff and not giving informaiton on what db this query to be run...

The query that you suggested run on Oracle 11g.

that was NOT Ann's example

Ann had a proper well formed schema, with columns

You have "a bad idea", the storing of a comma separated string as an attribute. That clearly should be THREE attributes.

please tell me you really have three columns in real life.

sunshine, April 29, 2008 - 5:09 am UTC

Hi Tom,
I have created a query which converts Columns to Rows.

mytable(CPR, UNIQUE_ID, HEAD01, AMOUNT01, HEAD02, AMOUNT02)

Select
0 as CPR,
UNIQUE_ID ,
HEAD01 as Name_Code ,
AMOUNT01 as Amount_Paid,

From mytable
Where HEAD01 is not NULL
and UNIQUE_ID in('FE20070820','FE20070821')
union all

Select
0 as CPR,
UNIQUE_ID ,
HEAD02 as Name_Code ,
AMOUNT02 as Amount_Paid,

From mytable
Where HEAD01 is not NULL
and UNIQUE_ID in('FE20070820','FE20070821')

Result is
CPR UNIQUE_ID NAME_CODE AMOUNT_PAID
0 FE20070820 'HEAD01' 300
0 FE20070820 'HEAD02' 300
0 FE20070821 'HEAD01' 100
0 FE20070821 'HEAD02' 300

Now i want the CPR to be 1 with MAX(Amount_Paid) when grouping by Unique_ID and if there amount are same then the on CPR to be 1
as

CPR UNIQUE_ID NAME_CODE AMOUNT_PAID
1 FE20070820 'HEAD01' 300
0 FE20070820 'HEAD02' 300
0 FE20070821 'HEAD01' 100
1 FE20070821 'HEAD02' 300

How to transform the Column to Row resultant dataset to show CPR 1 with MAX(Amount_Paid) other wise 0

by the way i have Head01 -- Head10 and Amout01-- Amount10 but for clearity and simplicity i have writen two only

Storing Data Vertically

Butun, May 05, 2008 - 12:18 am UTC

Hi Tom,

If there are huge number of data elements for a file, say 8000, what is the better way of storing the data? Option 1 is keeping the columns as Rows (Vertical) or creating 8 tables of 1000 columns each?

The proper way should be to normalize the data and store it in proper normalized set of tables. But what to do if it is not possible to normalize the data?


Tom Kyte
May 05, 2008 - 2:51 am UTC

EAV models stink (entity - attribute - value). store data like that and it'll be the most secure data ever since

a) no one will be able to query it
b) even if they do, they will not have the patience to wait for the answer

It is always - repeat - it is ALWAYS possible to do the right thing. Statements like this:

... But what to do if it is not possible to ....


are always false. It is a choice you are purposely making - nothing more, nothing less.



Pivoting two tables

Prabhu, May 07, 2008 - 9:04 am UTC

Relating to this thread, I have this question. I have User_ID & Dept_id in Curr_dept. When table is refreshed a snapshot will be stored in prev_dept (something like Mar08 & Apr08). I need to now compare these two tables and produce a report like this. One user can belong to more than one dept! Dept could be deleted, added or changed for an user.
User Curr Prev Status
1 524 524
1 529 New
2 530 530
2 542 Deleted
3 413 818 Changed

CREATE TABLE curr_dept (user_id NUMBER, dept_id NUMBER);
CREATE TABLE prev_dept (user_id NUMBER, dept_id NUMBER);
INSERT INTO curr_dept VALUES (1, 524);
INSERT INTO curr_dept VALUES (1, 529);
INSERT INTO curr_dept VALUES (2, 530);
INSERT INTO curr_dept VALUES (3, 413);
INSERT INTO prev_dept VALUES (1, 524);
INSERT INTO prev_dept VALUES (2, 530);
INSERT INTO prev_dept VALUES (2, 542);
INSERT INTO prev_dept VALUES (3, 818);
COMMIT;

Please advise. Thanks.
Tom Kyte
May 08, 2008 - 2:38 am UTC

to pivot "two" tables is no different than one, or one hundred.

You have a "query" Q

select * from (Q);


Your way of recording data is, well, I'd have to say "not really good"


Your user=3, there is going to be no way really to get that one "changed". You have NO WAY to tie those two records together.

What if the data were:

INSERT INTO curr_dept VALUES (3, 413);

INSERT INTO prev_dept VALUES (3, 818);
INSERT INTO prev_dept VALUES (3, 111);

so, what now, is 111 change and 818 deleted, is 818 change and 111 deleted. Heck, why could it not be that 818 and 111 are deleted and 413 is new?????

This structure is not correct, you'll need to rethink your strategy from the ground up I'm afraid.

Prabhu, May 08, 2008 - 3:38 am UTC

Thanks Tom. Unfortunately, I am Not involved in table design and I can not do anything about it. Infact I was only trying to give a surprise report to the user; they didnt ask for :) But for my knowledge, how would you design in this scenario, if it is possible to report in this way at all?
Tom Kyte
May 12, 2008 - 8:20 am UTC

I think you missed my point.

You cannot get the report you want, your data does NOT support it.

Unless and until you can deterministically answer this question from me:

What if the data were:

INSERT INTO curr_dept VALUES (3, 413);

INSERT INTO prev_dept VALUES (3, 818);
INSERT INTO prev_dept VALUES (3, 111);

so, what now, is 111 change and 818 deleted, is 818 change and 111 deleted. Heck, why could it not be that 818 and 111 are deleted and 413 is new?????


you quite simply cannot generate your report.

These tables were not "designed".

Tom,

those are very usefull tips for pivoting and turing columns into rows, going through the above i got confused if lets say a businness has any requirments to be able to fetch data in the below fashion would it be possible.

Table A has below columns and data

Group A Group A.1 Group A.1.1 Group A.1.2
-----------------------------------------------
New Car Jaguar 01-Jan-2011 Sold
New Car Hyundai 02-Jan-2011 Not Sold
Old Car Jaguar 05-Jan-2011 Sold
Old Car Jaguar 10-Jan-2011 Not Sold
Old Car Hyundai 15-Jan-2011 Sold
Old Car Hyundai 17-Jan-2011 Sold
New Car Hyundai 18-Jan-2011 Sold

Can the above data from a table be fetched in the below fashion using a SQL query.

Group Date Status
-------------------------------
New Car
Jaguar
01-Jan-2011 Sold
Hyundai
02-Jan-2011 Not Sold

Column to Rows???

Jerry, April 19, 2011 - 9:43 am UTC

I have reviewed the comments/solutions here and have not found one suitable to my challenge. The closet one was from Sandeep (Transform values in the same colum into rows).

I have three fields per row with the 3rd field containing multiple values (not my design, but I have to live with it) :

Field1 Field2 Field3
1 2 A100,A200,A300,A400,A500....

How do I split this out into multiple rows with only one Field3 value per row? I am using 10g.

Result should be:
Field1 Field2 Field3
1 2 A100
1 2 A200
1 2 A300
1 2 A400
1 2 A500

Any assistance you can give me is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Jerry

Columns to rows--unpivot without UNPIVOT: excluding target rows when transposed values are all NULL

Greg, July 18, 2011 - 10:45 pm UTC

Hi Tom,

I was reading the transposition question and example (a pre- 11g "unpivot") that Ann posted on April 1, 2008 and your response the following day. While I found both the problem and your solution to be very understandable, concise, and extremely helpful, there appears to be one small part of Ann's question that I think you did not address.

Ann had a two-part question, ...

If all B C and D columns is = N/A then select one row.
If any B C and D columns is not= N/A select show all columns in rows that is not=N/A


Your solution answered the second part, but not the first part. Your solution resulted in the transposition of all the original cells (i.e., three rows, each for original columns B, C, and D), including the case where A="D1000" and all B, C, and D values were "N/A." If you had appended an...
order by a, col
...clause to the end of the SQL statement, then it would have been clearer to see that all three original columns of "N/A" resulted in three rows instead of a single row that Ann was looking for. While I found this very helpful, insofar as learning how to transpose the full "grid" of data, if you will, I am interested to know how you would modify the SQL statement to answer the first part of Ann's question, which was to display a single row if B, C, and D were all "N/A."

Now, I realize you included the additional "COL" column in your result in order to clearly show how the decoded row values relate to the originally-named columns before the transpose, and why it is important to specify exactly how many rows should appear in the result (hence, the use of "connect by level..."). But suppose you omitted the "decode( r, 1, 'B', 2, 'C', 3, 'D' ) col" portion of the statement. Then would you simply add a WHERE clause to get the resultant single row of A="D1000", VAL="N/A"? Perhaps the following?...
where B<>'N/A' or C<>'N/A' or D<>'N/A'
Or is there a better way to handle this?

Finally, supposing Ann's example had NULL values instead of "N/A" text values. How would you modify the SQL statement so that no row would appear in the result if the transposed VAL column contained a NULL value? In other words, how to display only those rows that contain actual response values?

Thanks!

it would be a where clause - yes. And if it were NULL instead of 'N/A', we would just replace

Columns to rows--unpivot without UNPIVOT: follow-up questions

Greg, July 19, 2011 - 10:00 pm UTC

Hi Tom,

Thank you very much for your helpful and prompt reply... I wasn't expecting that so soon. You really are fantastic! Anyway, having answered my previous "unpivot" question that related to Ann's original question, I'm hoping you might indulge me with another follow-up question that more closely resembles the actual "real-life" scenario I currently have.

Extending the example, let's say we have a second table, T2, containing the same key column, A, as in the first table, T1, plus additional response value columns, D, and E. Granted, this is already not a very good model, even with as few as just these two tables. But suppose we would like to combine these two tables, transpose the response value columns, B, C, D, E, and F, into rows, and exclude the resultant rows with NULL response values. In the code, below, in an inner subquery, I use a UNION ALL to combine the two tables and "unpivot" each, and then in an outer subquery I subset the resultant table to exclude the rows with NULL responses...

/* Table T1 */
create table t2 (
    a  varchar2(30),
    b  varchar2(30),
    c  varchar2(30),
    d  varchar2(30)
);

insert into t1 values( 'A1000', '27.68%',  '2.78%', '69.55%' );
insert into t1 values( 'B1000', '25.00%',  '5.00%',  '5.00%' );
insert into t1 values( 'C1000',     NULL, '75.00%', '25.00%' );
insert into t1 values( 'D1000',     NULL,     NULL,     NULL );
insert into t1 values( 'E1000', '25.00%',     NULL, '75.00%' );

select a, b, c, d
from t1;
/* T1: results in...
A      B       C       D
=====  ======  ======  ======
A1000  27.68%  2.78%   69.55%
B1000  25.00%  5.00%   70.00%
C1000          75.00%  25.00%
D1000                   
E1000  25.00%          75.00%
*/

/* Table T2 */
create table t2 (
    a  varchar2(30),
    e  varchar2(30),
    f  varchar2(30)
);

insert into t2 values( 'A1000',     NULL,     NULL );
insert into t2 values( 'B1000',     NULL, '15.50%' );
insert into t2 values( 'C1000', '52.25%', '65.00%' );
insert into t2 values( 'D1000', '66.67%',  '8.00%' );
insert into t2 values( 'E1000', '25.00%',     NULL );

select a, e, f
from t2;
/* T2: results in...
A      E       F

I deliberately structured table T2 to have 2 response value columns, E and F, instead of 3, as the original T1 table had, in order to see what happens if you specify "too many" expected rows (i.e., "connect by level <= 6"). A sixth response value column would be able to "fit" into the resultant sixth "placeholder" row. But without specifying a sixth column in the DECODE function, the result table still gets created when joined with the unspecified sixth column resulting in a NULL value for the sixth row. In this example, the value of COL in the sixth row is NULL. If the goal is to transpose the data and also exclude resultant rows with NULL reponse values, then it becomes convenient to simply subset where "COL is not null and VAL is not null." And this subsetting condition would hold even with additional specified rows, or, "levels."

This works just fine for me. But is subsetting in this fashion--via an outer subquery--a good way to achieve the desired results? Are subqueries even needed here? It certainly seems to make it convenient to subset and exclude the resultant rows with NULL responses, since they now fall under a single transposed column that can be referenced in a WHERE clause. But in a "real-life" scenario where there are many more rows and columns to deal with, is it an efficient method?

Say we have many columns to transpose across more than one table that have to be combined. Would a generic subsetting condition in an outer subquery such as in the example above suffice to cover any future number of additional columns that may be needed to transpose? Specifying the number of "levels" to some number greater than the total number of columns to be transposed across all the tables to be combined, the DECODE() values in each of the tables to be transposed and UNION'ed would have to be specified in the inner subquery, but the subsetting WHERE clause in the outer subquery would not have to be changed. Again, I agree the model is not a very good one, but if faced with such a scenario, does the approach I describe make sense? It returns the results I expect, but do you see any alternative methods, or improvements that I might make to this code, or problems that you think I should be aware of and possibly address?

Thank you very much, Tom, for your remarkable work, sharing your knowledge, your time, and your humor. As a programmer of nearly 20 years (primarily in SAS), I consider this website an education unto itself. Primarily for learning more about Oracle, but also, in no small way either, for seeing how a desire to teach and the positive feedback one can achieve from helping others, even just a few, can overcome what must often seem like never-ending frustration trying to communicate. Keep up the great work!

you would use a with subquery with as few rows as possible - perform the cartesian join and use decode to "pivot" if you don't have 11gR2's 'pivot' syntax.

And you'd "where" to keep the resulting rows you wanted to keep.

It is the way to accomplish the pivot, yes.

Pivot and Join with Two tables

Brian, July 24, 2011 - 7:40 pm UTC

Hi Tom,

I want to pivot a table and then join it with another table though the two tables do not have a column that relates them to each other.

I have an input file like this..
Products columns represent company products
Columns Q1 to Q12 represent specific quarters
Values in the columns equal sales (or whatever)

SALES TABLE (represents input file)

PRODUCT Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q5 Q6 Q7 Q8 Q9 Q10 Q11 Q12
A 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
B 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
C 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
D 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
E 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

Period look up table:

Q1 = 100
Q2 = 200
Q3 = 300
and so on...

PERIOD TABLE

PERIOD_PK PERIOD_NAME
100 2010 Q1
200 2010 Q2
300 2010 Q3
400 2010 Q4
500 2011 Q1
600 2011 Q2
700 2011 Q3
800 2011 Q4
900 2012 Q1
1000 2012 Q2
1100 2012 Q3
1200 2012 Q4

I need to take the columns from the Sales table and transform each cell into a row while joining it with the Product table so it looks like this...

PRODUCT PERIOD_NAME PERIOD_PK VALUE_NUM
A 2010 Q1 100 1
A 2010 Q2 200 2
A 2010 Q3 300 3
A 2010 Q4 400 4
A 2011 Q1 500 5
A 2011 Q2 600 6
A 2011 Q3 700 7
A 2011 Q4 800 8
A 2012 Q1 900 9
A 2012 Q2 1000 10
A 2012 Q3 1100 11
A 2012 Q4 1200 12
B 2010 Q1 100 1
B 2010 Q2 200 2
B 2010 Q3 300 3
B 2010 Q4 400 4
B 2011 Q1 500 5
B 2011 Q2 600 6
B 2011 Q3 700 7
B 2011 Q4 800 8
B 2012 Q1 900 9
B 2012 Q2 1000 10
B 2012 Q3 1100 11
B 2012 Q4 1200 12

and so on for Products C, D, and E.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks Tom,

I want to pivot a table and then join it with another table though the two tables do not have a column that relates them to each other.


well, that is a rather *strange* request you know. "I want to join two tables that have no join conditions..."

but in short

no create
no inserts
never going to look

if you want a sql statement as output - you need to provide create tables, inserts into them, an explanation of the output and some sample output to clarify with that.

dividing column value into rows

Praveen Ray, August 11, 2011 - 11:21 am UTC

Hi Tom,

Suppose a table having row like:
col1=a, col2=100^200^300 col3=10^20^30

Now, I am asked to write a query so that the result set should be:

a 100 10
a 200 10
a 300 10
a 100 20
a 200 20
...

where col2 and col3 can have N numeric values separated by (say ^)
