How To PIVOT Over Up To 49 Fields?

I have a table that contains procedure data. There can be up to 49 entries for a given encounter. I want to output one row for each account and include the procedure, date and pr

Solution 1:

Your first query is the closest one, except that you did not enclosed every case into aggreagate function. Also it seems that you do not need some columns in group by clause:

select
    [Encounter Number], 
    Proc1 = max(CASE When [Encounter Proc Sequence] = '1' Then [Procedure Code (Enctr)] END),
    SvcDate1 = max(Case When [Encounter Proc Sequence] = '1' Then [Date of Service] END),
    Surgeon1 = max(CASE When [Encounter Proc Sequence] = '1' Then [Surgeon] END),
    Proc2 = max(CASE When [Encounter Proc Sequence] = '2' Then [Procedure Code (Enctr)] END),
    SvcDate2 = max(Case When [Encounter Proc Sequence] = '2' Then [Date of Service] END),
    Surgeon2 = max(CASE When [Encounter Proc Sequence] = '2' Then [Surgeon] END),
    Proc3 = max(CASE When [Encounter Proc Sequence] = '3' Then [Procedure Code (Enctr)] END),
    SvcDate3 = max(Case When [Encounter Proc Sequence] = '3' Then [Date of Service] END),
    Surgeon3 = max(CASE When [Encounter Proc Sequence] = '3' Then [Surgeon] END)
    --- etc.
from EncounterProc
where [Date of Service] between '20090101' and '20091231'
    and [Procedure Code (ENCTR)] is not null
group by [Encounter Number], [Encounter Proc Sequence]
