Creating a payroll

I have a problem with creating my payroll
At the end I want to get the following table:

My data has been imported into the program in this format:

The problem has always been that I do not have my own table in which the desired terms (Sales Turnover, Surcharge C, etc.) are associated with the values.


How do I get it now that I choose the column header as a row heading without first changing it in the Power Query Editor? I can not find a visual that offers me this feature.


Another possibility would be to create my own table in which I create a list (Sales Turnover, Surcharge C, etc.) and then link them to values from another table.

Hi @Anonymous ,

My original data table is like this:

Then, calculate :

GS = P3[ST] + P3[+SC]
GS-b = P3[GS] - P3[-BC]
KF1 = P3[GS-b] -P3[-M-C] 
KF2 = P3[KF1] - [-F-C] - [-C-C] - [-D-C] - [-C-C_1] - [-P-C] - [-Pr-C] - [-S-C] 
KF3 = P3[KF2] -[-Fix-C] 

 

Then, export the data and transpose in excel ( As you know, because of the calculated column, you can’t transpose in ‘Edit Query’ ):

Then, import the data and calculate the ‘sum’ and sort each row:

(My data’s sort is wrong, just for reference)
