The PIVOT syntax converts row data into columnar data. A dynamic PIVOT is needed when there are an unknown number of row values that need to be converted to columns.

Not all databases support a PIVOT operation but it can be replicated using decision logic (CASE statements) and aggregate functions.
Dynamic SQL is an enhanced form of SQL (Structured Query Language) whose main difference from traditional SQL is that Dynamic SQL allows to build the PIVOT statement dynamically at runtime, which eases the automatic generation and execution of program statements.
