SQL Query
Hello,
I have a table with many columns. I need to query three of the fields siteid, roleid and userid. For each siteid, there may be multiple userids. If there is a userid there is one roleid. For two users, I am trying to compare the siteid there have access to and their role. I want one row for each site. On each row I want to know if the each of the users has access and their role. If they do not have access to either siteid, I do not want that siteid to appear in the results.
Thank you,
John

You may try following query:
DECLARE @User1 int
SET @User1 = <User1IDvalue>
DECLARE @User2 int
SET @User2 = <User2IDvalue>
SELECT SiteID,
@User1 User1, MAX(CASE WHEN UserID = @User1 THEN RoleID ELSE NULL END) Role1,
@User2 User2, MAX(CASE WHEN UserID = @User2 THEN RoleID ELSE NULL END) Role2
FROM YourTable
GROUP BY SiteID, User1, User2
ORDER BY SiteID
I am getting:
Why to repeat users A and B number because the column names RoleA and RoleB identifies them clearly.
Testing for users 1 and 3 for five column output With:
Declare @userA int = 1;
Declare @userB int = 3;
I am getting:

Using the sample table provided in the previous comment, the following select statement will give you the desired output -
Replace the table name #t with your table name.
DECLARE @User1 int
SET @User1 = 1
DECLARE @User2 int
SET @User2 = 2
SELECT *
FROM
(
SELECT SiteID,
@User1 User1, MAX(CASE WHEN UserID = @User1 THEN RoleID ELSE NULL END) Role1,
@User2 User2, MAX(CASE WHEN UserID = @User2 THEN RoleID ELSE NULL END) Role2
FROM #t
GROUP BY SiteID
) TempTab
WHERE NOT ( Role1 IS NULL AND Role2 IS NULL )
ORDER BY SiteID
Replace the table name #t with your table name.

Hi Anoo,
I clicked on Good Comment for your comment because it is so simple without using CTE, etc.
Is there a way to have variables replace the alias names?
For example:
I suppose we have to store it in @sql first and then execute it. It will be nice to make work that way because then we don't have to revise tsql for different users.
----
@pcelba,
When I tested your solution, it didn't work. Now I see User1, User2 in the below line had to be removed.
GROUP BY SiteID --, User1, User2

Thank you for all the feedback. I will try in the morning. Questions.
Is there a way to do this without variables?
I do not have much experience with variables in SQL. How would I have known variables would have been needed for this?
I understand the max function, but not completely sure why it is needed here. Please explain.
Thanks again.

Using the solution from Anoo, to compare 1 and 2:
or to compare 1 and 3:
SELECT *
FROM
(
SELECT SiteID,
1 User1, MAX(CASE WHEN UserID = 1 THEN RoleID ELSE NULL END) Role1,
2 User2, MAX(CASE WHEN UserID = 2 THEN RoleID ELSE NULL END) Role2
FROM #t
GROUP BY SiteID
) TempTab
WHERE NOT ( Role1 IS NULL AND Role2 IS NULL )
ORDER BY SiteID
or to compare 1 and 3:
SELECT *
FROM
(
SELECT SiteID,
1 User1, MAX(CASE WHEN UserID = 1 THEN RoleID ELSE NULL END) Role1,
3 User3, MAX(CASE WHEN UserID = 3 THEN RoleID ELSE NULL END) Role3
FROM #t
GROUP BY SiteID
) TempTab
WHERE NOT ( Role1 IS NULL AND Role3 IS NULL )
ORDER BY SiteID;
select * from #t
order by userid;
