Conditionally Summing the same Column multiple times in a single select statement?

I have a single table that shows employee deployments, for various types of deployment, in a given location for each month:

ID | Location_ID | Date | NumEmployees | DeploymentType_ID

As an example, a few records might be:

 1 | L1 | 12/2010 | 7 | 1 (=Permanent)
 2 | L1 | 12/2010 | 2 | 2 (=Temp)
 3 | L1 | 12/2010 | 1 | 3 (=Support)
 4 | L1 | 01/2011 | 4 | 1
 5 | L1 | 01/2011 | 2 | 2
 6 | L1 | 01/2011 | 1 | 3
 7 | L2 | 12/2010 | 6 | 1
 8 | L2 | 01/2011 | 6 | 1
 9 | L2 | 12/2010 | 3 | 2

What I need to do is sum the various types of people by date, such that the results look something like this:

Date    | Total Perm | Total Temp | Total Supp
12/2010 |     13     |     5      |      1
01/2011 |     10     |     2      |      1

Currently, I've created a separate 开发者_如何学JAVAquery for each deployment type that looks like this:

SELECT Date, SUM(NumEmployees) AS "Total Permanent"
FROM tblDeployment
WHERE DeploymentType_ID=1
GROUP BY Date;

We'll call that query qSumPermDeployments. Then, I'm using a couple of joins to combine the queries:

SELECT qSumPermDeployments.Date, qSumPermDeployments.["Total Permanent"] AS "Permanent"
    qSumTempDeployments.["Total Temp"] AS "Temp"
    qSumSupportDeployments.["Total Support"] AS Support
FROM (qSumPermDeployments LEFT JOIN qSumTempDeployments 
    ON qSumPermDeployments.Date = qSumTempDeployments.Date) 
LEFT JOIN qSumSupportDeployments 
    ON qSumPermDeployments.Date = qSumSupportDeployments.Date;

Note that I'm currently constructing that final query under the assumption that a location will only have temp or support employees if they also have permanent employees. Thus, I can create the joins using the permanent employee results as the base table. Given all of the data I currently have, that assumption holds up, but ideally I'd like to move away from that assumption.

So finally, my question. Is there a way to simplify this down to a single query or is it best to separate it out into multiple queries - if for no other reason that readability.

SELECT Date, 
    SUM(case when DeploymentType_ID = 1 then NumEmployees else null end) AS "Total Permanent", 
    SUM(case when DeploymentType_ID = 2 then NumEmployees else null end) AS "Total Temp", 
    SUM(case when DeploymentType_ID = 3 then NumEmployees else null end) AS "Total Supp"
FROM tblDeployment
GROUP BY Date

Try this:

SELECT
    Date,
    SUM(CASE WHEN DeploymentType_ID=1 THEN NumEmployees ELSE 0 END) AS "Total Permanent",
    SUM(CASE WHEN DeploymentType_ID=2 THEN NumEmployees ELSE 0 END) AS "Total Temporary",
    SUM(CASE WHEN DeploymentType_ID=3 THEN NumEmployees ELSE 0 END) AS "Total Support"
FROM tblDeployment
GROUP BY Date;
