MySQL Pivot Procedure

This repository contains a MySQL/MariaDB stored procedure to create a pivot table dynamically. The procedure allows you to summarize data from a table by converting unique values from one column into multiple columns in the output.

Procedure Overview

The procedure pivot_procedure takes various parameters to dynamically create a pivot table. Here is the complete SQL code for the procedure:

Parameters

• P_Column_Field: The column to be pivoted.
• P_Value: The column to aggregate.
• P_From: The source table.
• P_Where: The WHERE clause for filtering data.
• P_Collimit: The maximum number of columns to pivot.
• P_Row_Field: The column for grouping rows.
• P_Rowsumname: The name of the column for row sums.
• P_Orderby: The column to order the results.
• P_Savetable: The name of the table to save the results.

Usage

To use this procedure, you need to call it with the appropriate parameters. Here's an example:

CALL pivot_procedure(
    'Shop',      -- P_Column_Field
    'Amount',    -- P_Value
    'sales',     -- P_From
    '1=1',       -- P_Where
    10,          -- P_Collimit
    'Date',      -- P_Row_Field
    'Total',     -- P_Rowsumname
    'Date',      -- P_Orderby
    ''           -- P_Savetable
);

This will pivot the sales table, grouping by Date and pivoting on the Shop column with the sum of Amount.
