Hi everybody,
I have a script that runs every night and produces a list of a few error
conditions and the number.
My manager would like it in a form where he can produce some charts in a
spreadsheet (that's probably why he's a manager ";-).
So the table I store the errormessages in has a format like this:
CREATE TABLE repport_history
(
rundate date,
errordescription character varying(255),
number bigint
)
And I would like an output with something like:
06/22 06/23 06/24 06/25
ERROR1 10 10 9 8
ERROR2 250 300 220 200
ERROR3 4 2 0 0
(probably in csv or something like that but that is the easy part ";-)
The problems are:
- how to create a dynamic result type? (is that possible in a stored
procedure?)
- how to make sure that missing records are reported as 0
(some errors might not have entries on some dates)
Has somebody ever made a generic solution for something like this? (or do
I need a reporting tool?)
Thanks in advance,
Reinoud
