I'm currently trying to create a T-SQL, which runs through a list of deliveries in a table, and groups them by the Customer and the Depot - so each row will be
Customer, Depot, Total Value (sum of a column called Rate)
However, the customer would like the 'total value' split into the last 9 weeks - so rather than total value, we'll have columns like this:
22/01/2012 29/01/2012 05/02/2012 12/02/2012 19/02/2012 26/02/2012 04/03/2012 11/03/2012 18/03/2012
The dates would of course change for when they run the query - it'll just be the last 9 weeks. They also want a column for the Average of all these.
I understand pivot may help me but I'm a bit stumped on how to do this. Here's my current query:
SELECT d.Name AS 'Depot, s.Name AS 'Customer', SUM(c.Rates) AS 'Total Value'
FROM Deliveries AS c INNER JOIN Account AS s ON c.Customer = s.ID
INNER JOIN Depots AS d ON c.CollectionDepot = d.Letter
GROUP BY d.Name, s.Name
Many thanks!
EDIT: Here's a screenshot of the data currently - we won't need the 'total' column on the end, just there to show you. The 'Date' column is present in the Deliveries table and is called TripDate
You would have to make use of the PIVOT Keyword which is available in your version of SQL Server. I have outlined how your query should look, of course some tweaking will be required since it is difficult to test without having a copy of your data.
SELECT Depots.Name AS 'Depot', Account.Name, '22/01/2012', '29/01/2012', '05/02/2012', '12/02/2012',
FROM
(SELECT Name,
FROM Deliveries
INNER JOIN Account ON Deliveries.Customer = Account.ID
INNER JOIN Depots ON Account.CollectionDepot) AS Source
PIVOT
(
SUM(Deliveries.Rates)
FOR Date IN ('22/01/2012', '29/01/2012', '05/02/2012', '12/02/2012')
) AS 'Pivot Table'
For reference you could use this as a guide:

Without knowing your exact data. It hard to predict what you are getting. But I can give you a suggestion of a solution.
Table structure
CREATE TABLE Deliveries
(
Customer INT,
CollectionDepot INT,
Rates FLOAT,
TripDate DATETIME
)
CREATE TABLE Account
(
Name VARCHAR(100),
ID INT
)
CREATE TABLE Depots
(
Name VARCHAR(100),
Letter INT
)
Test data
INSERT INTO Deliveries
VALUES
(1,1,452,GETDATE()-10),
(1,1,800,GETDATE()-30),
(1,1,7895,GETDATE()-2),
(1,1,451,GETDATE()-2),
(1,1,478,GETDATE()-89),
(1,1,4512,GETDATE()-31),
(1,1,782,GETDATE()-20),
(1,1,652,GETDATE()-5),
(1,1,752,GETDATE()-452)
INSERT INTO Account
VALUES
('Customer 1',1)
INSERT INTO Depots
VALUES
('Depot 1',1)
Table that contains the ranges and the formated date
CREATE TABLE #tmp
(
StartDate DATETIME,
EndDate DATETIME,
FomatedDate VARCHAR(20)
)
Calculate the date ranges
;WITH Nbrs ( n ) AS (
SELECT 0 UNION ALL
SELECT 1+n FROM Nbrs WHERE n < 8 )
INSERT INTO #tmp
SELECT
DATEADD(WEEK,-n-1,GETDATE()),
DATEADD(WEEK,-n,GETDATE()),
convert(varchar, DATEADD(WEEK,-n,GETDATE()), 112)
FROM
Nbrs
ORDER BY
-n
The date columns for the pivot
DECLARE @cols VARCHAR(MAX)
SELECT @cols = COALESCE(@cols + ','+QUOTENAME(FomatedDate),
QUOTENAME(FomatedDate))
FROM
#tmp
Declaring some dynamic sql and executing it
DECLARE @query NVARCHAR(4000)=
N'SELECT
*
FROM
(
SELECT
Depots.Name AS Depot,
Account.Name AS Customer,
Deliveries.Rates,
tmp.FomatedDate,
AVG(Deliveries.Rates) OVER(PARTITION BY 1) AS Average,
SUM(Deliveries.Rates) OVER(PARTITION BY 1) AS Total
FROM
Deliveries
JOIN Account
ON Deliveries.Customer = Account.ID
JOIN Depots
ON Deliveries.CollectionDepot = Depots.Letter
JOIN #tmp AS tmp
ON Deliveries.TripDate BETWEEN tmp.StartDate AND tmp.EndDate
) AS p
PIVOT
(
AVG(rates)
FOR FomatedDate IN ('+@cols+')
) AS pvt'
EXECUTE(@query)
And then cleaning up after myself.
DROP TABLE Deliveries
DROP TABLE Account
DROP TABLE Depots
DROP TABLE #tmp
