Hur konverterar man rader till kolumner i Oracle?

Om du använder Oracle 10g kan du använda DECODE funktion för att svänga raderna till kolumner:

CREATE TABLE doc_tab (
  loan_number VARCHAR2(20),
  document_type VARCHAR2(20),
  document_id VARCHAR2(20)
);

INSERT INTO doc_tab VALUES('992452533663', 'Voters ID', 'XPD0355636');
INSERT INTO doc_tab VALUES('992452533663', 'Pan card', 'CHXPS5522D');
INSERT INTO doc_tab VALUES('992452533663', 'Drivers licence', 'DL-0420110141769');

COMMIT;

SELECT
    loan_number,
    MAX(DECODE(document_type, 'Voters ID', document_id)) AS voters_id,
    MAX(DECODE(document_type, 'Pan card', document_id)) AS pan_card,
    MAX(DECODE(document_type, 'Drivers licence', document_id)) AS drivers_licence
  FROM
    doc_tab
GROUP BY loan_number
ORDER BY loan_number;

Utdata:

LOAN_NUMBER   VOTERS_ID            PAN_CARD             DRIVERS_LICENCE    
------------- -------------------- -------------------- --------------------
992452533663  XPD0355636           CHXPS5522D           DL-0420110141769     

Du kan uppnå samma sak med Oracle PIVOT klausul, införd i 11g:

SELECT *
  FROM doc_tab
PIVOT (
  MAX(document_id) FOR document_type IN ('Voters ID','Pan card','Drivers licence')
);
