Sql pivot - but dont sum the values

Question

I have a table schema that looks like this

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Discounts](
      [Id] [int] NOT NULL,
      [ProductId] [varchar(50)] NOT NULL,
      [LowerBound         


        

Answer 1

Since you are using SQL Server, there are several ways that you can convert the rows of data into columns.

You can use an aggregate function with a CASE expression to get the result:

select productid,
  max(case when lower = 0 and upper = 10 then discount end) [0-10],
  max(case when lower = 10 and upper = 30 then discount end) [10-30],
  max(case when lower = 30 and upper = 60 then discount end) [30-60],
  max(case when lower = 60 and upper = 90 then discount end) [60-90],
  max(case when lower = 90 and upper = 120 then discount end) [90-120]
from CorporateSpread
group by productid;

See SQL Fiddle with Demo.

If you are using SQL Server 2005+, then you can use the PIVOT function:

select productid, [0-10], [10-30], [30-60], [60-90],[90-120]
from 
(
  select productid,
    discount,
    cast(lower as varchar(10)) + '-' + cast(upper as varchar(10)) rng
  from CorporateSpread
) d
pivot
(
  max(discount)
  for rng in ([0-10], [10-30], [30-60], [60-90],[90-120])
) piv;

See SQL Fiddle with Demo.

The above two version work great if you have a known number of values, but if you have an unknown number of ranges, then you will need to to use dynamic SQL:

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

select @cols = STUFF((SELECT distinct ',' + QUOTENAME(cast(lower as varchar(10)) + '-' + cast(upper as varchar(10))) 
                    from CorporateSpread
            FOR XML PATH(''), TYPE
            ).value('.', 'NVARCHAR(MAX)') 
        ,1,1,'')

set @query = 'SELECT productid, ' + @cols + ' 
            from 
            (
                select productid,
                  discount,
                  cast(lower as varchar(10)) + ''-'' + cast(upper as varchar(10)) rng
                from CorporateSpread
            ) x
            pivot 
            (
                max(discount)
                for rng in (' + @cols + ')
            ) p '

execute sp_executesql @query;

See SQL Fiddle with Demo. All versions will give a result:

| PRODUCTID | 0-10 | 10-30 | 30-60 | 60-90 | 90-120 |
-----------------------------------------------------
|  product1 |    0 |     1 |     2 |     3 |      4 |
|  product2 |    0 |     1 |     2 |     3 |      4 |
