Create table with different formats
Hello:
I think this is something very simple but I haven't been able to solve it, I need to create this table in Power Bi, but I haven't been able to because it has two different types of formats in the same column.
Format 1: Percentage
Format 2: Integer.
How should the structure of the table be in excel to be able to import it or how is it created directly from PowerBi to be able to visualize it like this????
Thank you
Julian P.

Convert he year columns to rows (2021, 2022, 2023, 2034, 2025, etc)
Then convert the CAPEX, NNS, CAPEX/NNS into columns
Then change the data type of each column.
If you are new to Power BI then learn about “Date Modelling” and don’t be afraid to change the structure of data from a source system to good BI data model.

I did as you indicated but I still don't get the expected result, I share the base file with you if you can do the tests in that document.
Pdta: I didn't find how to upload the file I share it through wetransfer
