Answer 1

Your current query is pivoting product names and grouping the dates. But you need to pivot the dates and group the product names

Try this way

DECLARE @cols  AS NVARCHAR(max),
        @query AS NVARCHAR(max)

Find the distinct list of dates instead of product names

SELECT @cols = Stuff((SELECT ','
                             + Quotename(CONVERT(char(11), Service_Date, 106))
                      FROM   dbo.Store
                      WHERE  CatID = '2'
                      GROUP  BY CONVERT(char(11), Service_Date, 106)
                      ORDER  BY CONVERT(date, Service_Date)
                      FOR xml PATH (''), TYPE) .value('.', 'NVARCHAR(MAX)'), 1, 1, '')

In pivot for list use the Service_date column instead of Product_Name

SET @query = 'SELECT Product_Name,'
             + @cols
             + ' from ( select Service.Service_Date, Store.Product_Name, Servicelist.ProductQty FROM   dbo.Service INNER JOIN dbo.Servicelist ON dbo.Service.Service_ID = dbo.Servicelist.Service_ID INNER JOIN dbo.Store ON dbo.Servicelist.Pro_ID = dbo.Store.Pro_ID) x pivot ( SUM(ProductQty) for CONVERT(char(11), Service_Date, 106) in ('
             + @cols + ') ) p '

EXECUTE (@query);
