Convert MS Access TRANSFORM/PIVOT query to SQL Server

I need to transform an access query to sql server query but I am getting an error, can someone point me to the error cause?

Here is the MS Access query:

TRANSFORM Avg([X Avg Sub Group]) AS [AvgOfX Avg Sub Group]
SELECT Day, Process, 
       PARTNO_VAL0, CTQNO_VAL0, 
       ctq_description, MACHINE_VAL0, 
       usl, lsl, 
       Avg([X Avg Sub Group]) AS [Total Of X Avg Sub Group]
FROM [Capability Data with Shift]
WHERE (((Process)="BBB WELDING"))
GROUP BY Day, Process, PARTNO_VAL0, CTQNO_VAL0, ctq_description, MACHINE_VAL0, usl, lsl
PIVOT SHIFT_VAL0;

Here is what I have done:

DECLARE @cols AS NVARCHAR(MAX);
DECLARE @query AS NVARCHAR(MAX);

SELECT @cols = STUFF((SELECT distinct ',' + QUOTENAME(avg([X Avg Sub Group]))
FROM [Capability Data with Shift]
WHERE (((Process)='BBB WELDING'))
GROUP BY Day, Process, PARTNO_VAL0, CTQNO_VAL0, ctq_description, MACHINE_VAL0, usl, lsl, SHIFT_VAL0
FOR XML PATH(''), TYPE
).value('.', 'NVARCHAR(MAX)') 
,1,1,'');

SET @query =  ' SELECT Day, Process, PARTNO_VAL0, CTQNO_VAL0, ctq_description, MACHINE_VAL0, usl, lsl, [Total Of X Avg Sub Group], ' + @cols + '
FROM 
(
SELECT Day, Process, PARTNO_VAL0, CTQNO_VAL0, ctq_description, MACHINE_VAL0, 
usl, lsl, SHIFT_VAL0, Avg([X Avg Sub Group]) AS [Total Of X Avg Sub Group]
FROM [Capability Data with Shift]
WHERE (((Process)=''BBB WELDING''))
GROUP BY Day, Process, PARTNO_VAL0, CTQNO_VAL0, ctq_description, MACHINE_VAL0, usl, lsl, SHIFT_VAL0
) t
PIVOT
(
  avg([Total Of X Avg Sub Group])
  FOR SHIFT_VAL0 IN( ' + @cols + ') 
) p ';
Execute(@query);

This is the result I am getting when I execute the query in SQL Server:

(1 row(s) affected)

Msg 8114, Level 16, State 1, Line 17 Error converting data type nvarchar to int.

Msg 473, Level 16, State 1, Line 17 The incorrect value "0.000642857" is supplied in the PIVOT operator.

Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Invalid column name 'Total Of X Avg Sub Group'.

A multi-user version without cursor:

CREATE OR ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].msrTransformAsAccessDo
    @TRANSFORM_Function nvarchar(MAX),
    @TRANSFORM_Field nvarchar(MAX),
    @SQL_SELECT nvarchar(MAX),
    @SQL_FROM_WHERE nvarchar(MAX),
    @SQL_GROUPBY_HAVING_ORDERBY nvarchar(MAX),
    @PIVOTBY nvarchar(MAX)
AS
BEGIN
    SET NOCOUNT ON
    DECLARE @Values nvarchar(MAX) = N''
    DECLARE @tmpStr nvarchar(MAX)
    DECLARE @RowCnt INT
    DECLARE @id int = 1
    DECLARE @DynSQL nvarchar(MAX) = N'INSERT INTO #pivoting SELECT DISTINCT ' + @PIVOTBY + ' as key_value ' + @SQL_FROM_WHERE + ' ORDER BY ' + @PIVOTBY
    EXEC (@DynSQL)
    SELECT @RowCnt = COUNT(*) FROM #pivoting;
    --replace cursor
    WHILE @id <= @RowCnt
    BEGIN
        SELECT @tmpStr = key_value from #pivoting where id = @id
        SET @Values
                    = @Values + ', ' + @TRANSFORM_Function + '(Case When convert(nvarchar,' + @PIVOTBY
                    + ')=convert(nvarchar,''' + @tmpStr + ''') Then ' + @TRANSFORM_Field + ' Else Null End) AS [' + @tmpStr
                    + '] '
        SET @id += 1
    END
    SET @DynSQL = @SQL_SELECT + ' ' + @Values + ' ' + @SQL_FROM_WHERE + ' ' + @SQL_GROUPBY_HAVING_ORDERBY
    EXEC (@DynSQL)
END

Also need to create temp table before you call the procedure (global temp is not session specific):

BEGIN
    --create temp table to ensure each user session has their own version of the pivot
    CREATE TABLE #pivoting (id INT IDENTITY NOT NULL, key_value NVARCHAR(max))
    EXECUTE [dbo].msrTransformAsAccessDo
   'Avg', 
   '[X Avg Sub Group]', 
   'SELECT Day, Process, PARTNO_VAL0, CTQNO_VAL0, ctq_description, MACHINE_VAL0, usl, lsl, Avg([X Avg Sub Group]) AS [Total Of X Avg Sub Group] ', 
   'FROM [Capability Data with Shift] WHERE (((Process)=''BBB WELDING'')) ', 
   'GROUP BY Day, Process, PARTNO_VAL0, CTQNO_VAL0, ctq_description, MACHINE_VAL0, usl, lsl ', 
   'SHIFT_VAL0'
    DROP TABLE #pivoting
END;

I have such universal stored procedure for pivoting 

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[msrTransformAsAccessDo]
    @TRANSFORM_Function nvarchar(max),
    @TRANSFORM_Field nvarchar(max),
    @SQL_SELECT nvarchar(max),
    @SQL_FROM_WHERE nvarchar(max),
    @SQL_GROUPBY_HAVING_ORDERBY nvarchar(max),
    @PIVOTBY nvarchar(max) 
AS
BEGIN
    SET NOCOUNT ON

    DECLARE @DynSQL nvarchar(max)

    SET @DynSQL = N' SELECT DISTINCT ' + @PIVOTBY + ' as key_value into ##pivoting ' + @SQL_FROM_WHERE + ' ORDER BY ' + @PIVOTBY

    DROP TABLE IF EXISTS ##pivoting
    EXEC (@DynSQL)

    DECLARE @Values nvarchar(max) = N''
    DECLARE @tmpStr nvarchar(max)
    DECLARE @rsk CURSOR         

    SET @rsk = CURSOR SCROLL
        FOR 
            select key_value from ##pivoting
    OPEN @rsk         
        FETCH NEXT FROM @rsk INTO @tmpStr
        WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
            BEGIN
                SET @Values = @Values + ', ' + @TRANSFORM_Function + '(Case When convert(nvarchar,' + @PIVOTBY + ')=convert(nvarchar,''' + @tmpStr + ''') Then ' + @TRANSFORM_Field + ' Else Null End) AS [' + @tmpStr + '] '
                FETCH NEXT FROM @rsk INTO @tmpStr
            END
    CLOSE @rsk

    DROP TABLE IF EXISTS ##pivoting

    SET @DynSQL = @SQL_SELECT + ' ' + @Values + ' ' + @SQL_FROM_WHERE + ' ' + @SQL_GROUPBY_HAVING_ORDERBY

    EXEC (@DynSQL)
END
GO

And call for your case:

EXECUTE msrTransformAsAccessDo 
   'Avg', 
   '[X Avg Sub Group]', 
   'SELECT Day, Process, PARTNO_VAL0, CTQNO_VAL0, ctq_description, MACHINE_VAL0, usl, lsl, Avg([X Avg Sub Group]) AS [Total Of X Avg Sub Group] ', 
   'FROM [Capability Data with Shift] WHERE (((Process)=''BBB WELDING'')) ', 
   'GROUP BY Day, Process, PARTNO_VAL0, CTQNO_VAL0, ctq_description, MACHINE_VAL0, usl, lsl ', 
   'SHIFT_VAL0'
