I have data as following

SQL> select col1, col2,col3, col4, col5 from R1 ;

COL1      COL2  COL3  COL4       COL5
--------- ----- ----- ----- ---------
31-DEC-08 A                       100
31-DEC-08       B     C            50
31-DEC-08 A     B                 200
31-DEC-08 A     B     C           500


I want to Pivot/transform the data as following

SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf

line 6 truncated.
  1  select col1, col2 COL_123, sum(col5) from R1 Where col2 = 'A' group by col1, col2
  2  UNION
  3  select col1, col3 COL_123, sum(col5) from R1 Where col3 = 'B' group by col1, col3
  4  UNION
  5* select col1, col4 COL_123, sum(col5) from R1 Where col4 = 'C' group by col1, col4
  6  /

COL1      COL_1 SUM(COL5)
--------- ----- ---------
31-DEC-08 A           800
31-DEC-08 B           750
31-DEC-08 C           550

SQL> 


Using Pivot, I could not get data in single column as mentioned above. Using above query I need to select table multiple times.

Is there a better way (Using single select)

Post a Test case: create table and insert statements along with the result you want with these data.

create table R1 (col1 Date, col2 char(1),col3 char(1),col4 char(1),col5 number(5));

Insert into R1 values('31-Dec-2008','A',null,null,100);
Insert into R1 values('31-Dec-2008',null,'B','C',50);
Insert into R1 values('31-Dec-2008','A','B',null,200);
Insert into R1 values('31-Dec-2008','A','B','C',500);

SQL> select col1, col2,col3, col4, col5 from R1 ;

COL1      COL2  COL3  COL4       COL5
--------- ----- ----- ----- ---------
31-DEC-08 A                       100
31-DEC-08       B     C            50
31-DEC-08 A     B                 200
31-DEC-08 A     B     C           500


I'm expecting following result using single query
  1  select col1, col2 COL_123, sum(col5) from R1 Where col2 = 'A' group by col1, col2
  2  UNION
  3  select col1, col3 COL_123, sum(col5) from R1 Where col3 = 'B' group by col1, col3
  4  UNION
  5* select col1, col4 COL_123, sum(col5) from R1 Where col4 = 'C' group by col1, col4
  6  /

COL1      COL_1 SUM(COL5)
--------- ----- ---------
31-DEC-08 A           800
31-DEC-08 B           750
31-DEC-08 C           550

31-Dec-2008          C        550

3 rows selected.

But if you have to do this then your design is wrong.

Thanks Michel,

It is not a design issue, basically for while reporting one record qualifies for one or multiple categories(in my case A/B/C). So I could give as columns , but i didnt know how to represent the way mentioned above.

Anyway thanks very much and try to implement the same.

I disagree with you. If you have to do this, then you should have a "type" column (1, 2 or 3) and a "value in the type" one ('A','B' or 'C').
This is what my "data" subquery simulates.
