Calling help from Pivoting Column Experts!

Hi guys, 

I've been wrapping my head around trying to pivot the table below (Current state). 
So far i have tried Grouping the field_name >> Adding Index >> Pivoting. However the id_user still contains multiple rows. Ideally it should only have one row.

Hi @Anonymous , Please use below M script to transform your data as mentioned above:

 

let
Source = Excel.Workbook(File.Contents("Your File Path"), null, true),
Sheet1_Sheet = Source{[Item="Sheet1",Kind="Sheet"]}[Data],
#"Promoted Headers" = Table.PromoteHeaders(Sheet1_Sheet, [PromoteAllScalars=true]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Promoted Headers",{{"ID_User", Int64.Type}, {"Field_Name", type text}, {"Field_Values", type text}}),
#"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Changed Type", List.Distinct(#"Changed Type"[Field_Name]), "Field_Name", "Field_Values")
in
#"Pivoted Column"
