I cannot seem to figure out where this error is. I am getting "Incorrect syntax near '('." It seems to be something in the pivot clause, but I can't figure it out. Thanks
Here is the code...
CREATE TABLE #T1 (
Territory_NM VARCHAR(100),
Product_Type VARCHAR(100),
ReportCount INT
)
--reports by region
INSERT INTO #t1
selectTerritory_NM, Product_Type, COUNT(Order_Product_ID) AS ReportCount
From[dbo].[DeliveredReportsSummary]
WHEREdeliveredDate >= '01/01/2014' AND deliveredDate < '11/01/2014'
Group BY Territory_NM, Product_Type
order by Territory_NM, Product_Type
select Territory_NM
,isnull([Litigation Premier],0) as [Litigation Premier]
,isnull([Litigation Gold],0) as [Litigation Gold]
,isnull([Patent Gold],0) as [Patent Gold]
,isnull([Patent Silver],0) as [Patent Silver]
,isnull([Expert Publications],0) as [Expert Publications]
,isnull([Expert News and Internet Activity],0) as [Expert News and Internet Activity]
from #T1
pivot (sum(ReportCount)
for Product_Type IN ([Litigation Premier],[Litigation Gold],[Patent Gold],[Patent Silver],[Expert Publications],[Expert News and Internet Activity]))
as productsByRegion

Your pivot statement is correct, your syntax error might be elsewhere.

Thanks Luis. I can't figure out where the syntax might be. Any further assistance?

Do you have something else in your code? Are you missing an end?

only line I left out was "drop table #t1" at the end. Thanks

Do you have a BEGIN with no END?
