'What is the best way to divide a numeric column into two different columns based on a binary column?
I have a table in SQL Server that keeps track of hours and if they are billable or not.
SELECT
Billable,
HoursBooked
FROM
Time
Result:
Billable HoursBooked
--------------------
0 8.0
1 4.0
1 6.0
I want to divide the hours into new columns based on whether it is billable or not. The new columns should be BillableHours and NonBillableHours.
Billable HoursBooked BillableHours NonBillableHours
----------------------------------------------------
0 8.0 0.0 8.0
1 4.0 4.0 0.0
1 6.0 6.0 0.0
I figured out how to get billable hours by multiplying the two columns together, but this doesn't work where billable = 0.
SELECT
Billable,
HoursBooked
Billable * HoursBooked AS BillableHours
FROM
Time
Output:
Billable HoursBooked BillableHours
----------------------------------
0 8.0 0.0
1 4.0 4.0
1 6.0 6.0
What would be the best way to create the non-billable hours column?
