I LAB OVERVIEW<br />

Scenario and Summary<br />

You are working as a data analyst for a large manufacturing firm. You have been asked to develop a series of pivot<br />

table queries, which will present aggregated views of corporate data that can be used for decision support and trend<br />

analysis by decision-makers.<br />

Using SQL, you can create aggregated views of your data. Pivot tables are especially useful if you are analyzing large<br />

volumes of data. For example, if you wanted to determine the average value of sales for each sales person in your<br />

database, you could use a pivot table to aggregate thousands or millions of sales records. This is much faster than<br />

attempting to scroll through all of the available records.<br />

You will log into our Citrix Server, access SQL Server, and the <strong>BIS</strong><strong>445</strong>_AdventureWorks database, and then develop<br />

five pivot tables.<br />
