I have table like below in DB2 where all these 3 columns are VARCHAR data type
DATE_F FILE_NM ROW_ID COLUMN_NM COLUMN_VAL
20200131 ABC.TXT 1 ABC_COL1 123
20200131 ABC.TXT 1 ABC_COL2 XYZ
20201231 ABC.TXT 2 ABC_COL1 456
20201231 ABC.TXT 2 ABC_COL2 XY1
20200630 XYZ.TXT 1 XYZ_COL1 PQR
20200630 XYZ.TXT 1 XYZ_COL2 567
20200630 XYZ.TXT 1 XYZ_COL3 MNO
I need a dynamic PIVOT query which should select values for ABC_COL1 and ABC_COL2 in row format when FILE_NM filter is used as ABC.TXT
The same query should select the values for XYZ_COL1, XYZ_COL2 and XYZ_COL3 in row format when FILE_NM filter is used as XYZ.TXT
output should be like below when FILE_NM=ABC.TXT
DATE_F ROW_ID ABC_COL1 ABC_COL2
20200131 1 123 XYZ
20201231 2 456 XY1
output should be like below when FILE_NM=XYZ.TXT
DATE_F ROW_ID XYZ_COL1 XYZ_COL2 XYZ_COL3
20200630 1 PQR 567 MNO
So, one one query will be able to extract the data. Can any function or equivalent can do the task in this case ?
You may try the following generic Stored Procedure doing pivoting.

Parameter description:
PARM | DESC |
---|---|
sel_stmt | Any valid SELECT statement for source data generation |
row_cols | Comma separated list of column names used in the GROUP BY of final statement |
col_col | A column name to pivot |
agg_col | A column name to aggregate |
agg_fn | Any valid Db2 aggregation function for the column name in "agg_col" parameter |
tmp_tbl | DGTT name for intermediate result |
null_ind | Null indicator |
rc | Return code (OUT) |
msg | Message text (OUT) |
stmt | The final SELECT generated (OUT) |
Brief description:
DGTT passed in tmp_tbl
is created and populated with the result of a SELECT statement passed in sel_stmt
. All the column names specified in row_cols
, col_col
, agg_col
must be in the SELECT list of this statement.
The final SELECT statement on this DGTT is dynamically generated using the following rules:
Vx
in the column name passed in col_col
an additional column expression is generated like: , <agg_fn> (case when <col_col> = Vx then <agg_col> end) as "Vx"
(, <agg_fn> (case when <col_col> IS NULL then <agg_col> end) as "<null_ind>"
is used for Vx
IS NULL), where <parameter>
means string value passed with this parameter.row_cols
column list is used in the GROUP BY
, if it's not NULL.Use for your case:
