I am using SQL server 2008 and I am trying to unpivot the data. Here is the SQL code that I am using,
CREATE TABLE #pvt1 (VendorID int, Sa int, Emp1 int,Sa1 int,Emp2 int)
GO
INSERT INTO #pvt1 VALUES (1,2,4,3,9);
GO
--Unpivot the table.
SELECT distinct VendorID,Orders,Orders1
FROM
(SELECT VendorID, Emp1, Sa,Emp2,Sa1
FROM #pvt1 ) p
UNPIVOT
(Orders FOR Emp IN
(Emp1,Emp2)
)AS unpvt
UNPIVOT
(Orders1 FOR Emp1 IN
(Sa,Sa1)
)AS unpvt1;
GO
And Here is the result of the above code.
VendorID Orders Orders1
1 4 2
1 4 3
1 9 2
1 9 3
But I want my Output to be the way indicated below
VendorID Orders Orders1
1 4 2
1 9 3
The relationship from the above code is 2 is related to 4, and 3 is related to 9.
How can I achieve this?
An easier way to unpivot the data would be to use a CROSS APPLY to unpivot the columns in pairs:
select vendorid, orders, orders1
from pvt1
cross apply
(
select emp1, sa union all
select emp2, sa1
) c (orders, orders1);
See SQL Fiddle with Demo. Or you can use CROSS APPLY with the VALUES clause if you don't want to use the UNION ALL:
select vendorid, orders, orders1
from pvt1
cross apply
(
values
(emp1, sa),
(emp2, sa1)
) c (orders, orders1);
