SQL Pivot??

Question

I am not sure I want yto do pivot so looking for some other option to change rows to column. So I have ,
R(M)           Measure           Metrc       MEtrcDesc
2                 $                        04         
APS
3                 Units                   05        
CAN
3                 Units                   06         
PRS
2                 Units                   07          
APL
I have more than million rows in my database where I need to change these to:
MetrcDesc                    04$    04Units        
05$    05Units         06$           06Units       07$ 07Units
APS                               2        
NULL        NULL      NULL     NULL     NULL  
NULL            NULL           
CAN                               NULL   
NULL           NULL         3                 NULL      ULL         
NULL
PRS                              NULL      
NULL           NULL       NULL            NULL         3    ULL          NULL

Try
-- code #1 - static
;with
T2 as (
SELECT MetrcDesc, Metrc + Measure as MetrcMeasure, [R(M)]
from table
--where ...
SELECT MetrcDesc, [04$], [04Units], [05$], [05Units], [06$], [06Units], [07$], [07Units]
from T2
pivot (sum([R(M)]) for MetrcMeasure in ([04$], [04Units], [05$], [05Units], [06$], [06Units], [07$], [07Units])) as P;
and
-- code #2 v3 - dynamic
declare @SQLcode varchar(1200), @MetrcMeasureV varchar(500);
set @MetrcMeasureV=
STUFF((SELECT ',' + quotename(T.Metrc + M.Measure) as MetrcMeasure
from (SELECT distinct Metrc from table) as T
cross join (values ('$'),('Units')) as M(Measure)
order by MetrcMeasure
for XML PATH(''), TYPE
).value('.', 'NVARCHAR(MAX)')
,1,1,'');
set @SQLcode= ';with ' +
'T2 as ( ' +
'SELECT MetrcDesc, Metrc + Measure as MetrcMeasure, [R(M)] ' +
' from table ' +
--' where ... ' +
') '+
'SELECT MetrcDesc, ' + @MetrcMeasureV +
' from T2 ' +
' pivot (sum([R(M)]) for MetrcMeasure in (' + @MetrcMeasureV + ')) as P;';
--print @SQLcode;
exec(@SQLcode);
