Column alias instead of technical names
Multi tool use
I am wondering if it is somehow possible to assign aliases/nicknames/common names to columns which have technical names rather than "easy to read"-names.
Say I have a table, where the columnnames are something like "CD12xxx" and I want to translate that into something readable:
Can this only be achieved by creating a view and "renaming" all columns with something like [CD12001] AS Customer_ID - or is there a nice way of doing this?
In Teradata I have seen something similar at some point, just wondering if it is possible in SQL-Server?
I believe it is SQL-Server 2016 my company is running.
Thanks.
