Hi francomaestri ,
Please follow ValtteriN 's suggest to use unpivot,below is the whole M syntax that you can paste in Advanced Editor:
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45W8k0sSs5QMDIwMlDSUVIxNgGRRkYg0tRAKVYnWsmxoCgzB67AxAysAEyamoMV+CZWwqVNwTqNwWwzQ6XYWAA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Date = _t, #"Category A" = _t, #"Category B " = _t, #"Category C" = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Date", type date}, {"Category A", Currency.Type}, {"Category B ", Currency.Type}, {"Category C", Currency.Type}}), #"Unpivoted Other Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Changed Type", {"Date"}, "Attribute", "Value"), #"Extracted Text Range" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Unpivoted Other Columns", {{"Attribute", each Text.Middle(_, 9, 1), type text}}), #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Extracted Text Range",{{"Attribute", "Category"}, {"Value", "Price"}}) in #"Renamed Columns"If you want to do it using DAX, since It is not allowed to use DAX to change the table structure, you could use UNION() to create a new table :
NewTable = UNION( SELECTCOLUMNS('Table', "Date",[Date], "Category", "A", "Price", [Category A]), SELECTCOLUMNS('Table', "Date",[Date], "Category", "B", "Price", [Category B]), SELECTCOLUMNS('Table', "Date",[Date], "Category", "C", "Price", [Category C]))Best Regards,
