Conditional Count On A Field

Answer :

I think you may be after

select 
    jobID, JobName,
    sum(case when Priority = 1 then 1 else 0 end) as priority1,
    sum(case when Priority = 2 then 1 else 0 end) as priority2,
    sum(case when Priority = 3 then 1 else 0 end) as priority3,
    sum(case when Priority = 4 then 1 else 0 end) as priority4,
    sum(case when Priority = 5 then 1 else 0 end) as priority5
from
    Jobs
group by 
    jobID, JobName

However I am uncertain if you need to the jobID and JobName in your results if so remove them and remove the group by,

Using COUNT instead of SUM removes the requirement for an ELSE statement:

SELECT jobId, jobName,
    COUNT(CASE WHEN Priority=1 THEN 1 END) AS Priority1,
    COUNT(CASE WHEN Priority=2 THEN 1 END) AS Priority2,
    COUNT(CASE WHEN Priority=3 THEN 1 END) AS Priority3,
    COUNT(CASE WHEN Priority=4 THEN 1 END) AS Priority4,
    COUNT(CASE WHEN Priority=5 THEN 1 END) AS Priority5
FROM TableName
GROUP BY jobId, jobName

IIF is not a standard SQL construct, but if it's supported by your database, you can achieve a more elegant statement producing the same result:

SELECT JobId, JobName,

COUNT(IIF (Priority=1, 1, NULL)) AS Priority1,
COUNT(IIF (Priority=2, 1, NULL)) AS Priority2,
COUNT(IIF (Priority=3, 1, NULL)) AS Priority3,
COUNT(IIF (Priority=4, 1, NULL)) AS Priority4,
COUNT(IIF (Priority=5, 1, NULL)) AS Priority5

FROM TableName
GROUP BY JobId, JobName
