Help Pivoting Data
I have a file where I want to have each row show me the charges based on either the charge code or charge name. In this example, I used the name.
I have looked at the data online, and in the ELT. The problem with I’m seeing in the ELT is I would have list the name of every code we have in the number 3 position (shown in Yellow below). That would be almost impossible to do, as the charges or code could change each time I run it. Having more or less each time.
Is there a code or statement you an place in number 3 that will name the column the same as the code ( what I have in number 1) ?
There is an excel data table as well. I can send it to whoever ends up helping with this

You can't do a dynamic pivot with Magic ETL however you can leverage prepared statements and SQL in a MySQL dataflow to do dynamic pivoting. You can follow the SQL with something like

@user14170 I don't know of a shortcut for naming the columns off hand. Do the pivoted columns need to be coded into the dataflow or are you able to use a pivot table card? If you have a large amount of charge codes you need to pivot, then having them listed as individual rows may give you more flexibility downstream.

Agreed, I've done dynamic column renaming using a Stored Proc in a MySQL dataflow - you can query the system tables to get the schema.
