UnPivot contro le query di unione in T-SQL 2008

Question

Il database che sto recupero dei dati da ha la struttura della tabella come questo

Tabella: ClientSales

ClientSalesId                 int identity (1, 1) (PK)
ClientId                      int (FK)
TermId                        int (FK)
StudentType1Population        int
StudentType1Adjustment        int
StudentType1Sales             int
StudentType1SalesAdjustment   int
StudentType2Population        int
StudentType2Adjustment        int
StudentType2Sales             int
StudentType2SalesAdjustment   int
StudentType3Population        int
StudentType3Adjustment        int
StudentType3Sales             int
StudentType3SalesAdjustment   int
StudentType4Population        int
StudentType4Adjustment        int
StudentType4Sales             int
StudentType4SalesAdjustment   int
StudentType5Population        int
StudentType5Adjustment        int
StudentType5Sales             int
StudentType5SalesAdjustment   int

Devo visualizzarlo senza pivot in un report come segue

Per ClientId = 1 e termine Id = 1

                Population   PopulationAdjustment  Sales  SalesAdjustment
StudentType1    313          18                    123    22
StudentType2    233          14                    156    33
StudentType3    234          12                    112    41
StudentType4    233          13                    198    29
StudentType5    343          10                    134    36

posso fare questo in due modi

SELECT
       'StudentType1'              as DemographicType
       StudentType1Population      as Population,
       StudentType1Adjustment      as PopulationAdjustment,
       StudentType1Sales           as Sales,
       StudentType1SalesAdjustment as SalesAdjustment,
FROM ClientSales
WHERE 1=1
       AND ClientId = 1
       AND TermId = 1

UNION

SELECT
       'StudentType2'              as DemographicType
       StudentType2Population      as Population,
       StudentType2Adjustment      as PopulationAdjustment,
       StudentType2Sales           as Sales,
       StudentType2SalesAdjustment as SalesAdjustment,
FROM ClientSales
WHERE 1=1
       AND ClientId = 1
       AND TermId = 1

-- yada yada yada for the rest of the types...........

o

SELECT

       Population

       ON UnPvtPopulationAdjustment.ClientSalesId = UnPvtPopulation.ClientSalesId
       AND REPLACE (UnPvtPopulationAdjustment.StudentType, 'PopulationAdjustment', '') = REPLACE (UnPvtPopulation.StudentType, 'Population', '')

INNER JOIN

       SELECT
              ClientId,

              StudentType3Sales,
              StudentType4Sales,
              StudentType5Sales
       FROM ClientSales
) PVTSales
UNPIVOT
(
       Sales for StudentType IN
       (
              StudentType1Sales,
              StudentType2Sales,
              StudentType3Sales,
              StudentType4Sales,
              StudentType5Sales
       )
) as UnPvtSales

       ON UnPvtSales.ClientSalesId = UnPvtPopulation.ClientSalesId
       AND REPLACE (UnPvtSales.StudentType, 'Sales', '') = REPLACE (UnPvtPopulation.StudentType, 'Population', '')

Quindi, ecco le domande:

• Per una protezione ottimale, devo usare UNPIVOT o UNION
• C'è un modo migliore per scrivere questo UNPIVOT?

Answer 1

ho scoperto che un UNPIVOT è proprio come una clausola WHERE .. si può usare come molti come è necessario

SELECT Col1, Col2, Unp1, Unp2, Unp3
FROM TBL
UNPIVOT (XX For Unp1 (ColXX1, ColXX2))
UNPIVOT (YY For Unp2 (ColYY1, ColYY2))
UNPIVOT (ZZ For Unp2 (ColZZ1, ColZZ2))
