Hi there,
I've been given a task of creating a Power BI from a rather unorganised Excel unfortunately. Therefore it looks like it needs some work using Power Query. The main issues I have are the following:
- Excel sheet contains hidden columns
- Column names change as week progresses (e.g. WK46 - 14/11/2022 will be deleted once passed meaning Power Query references will not know what to do if I 'clean' the data e.g. delete Column as this no longer exists as the data shifts/user deleted)
- Lots of data on one sheet
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
| ID | Name | Stock | Dlivery | Dlivery | Dlivery | Column | Demand | Demand | Demand |
| WK46 | WK47 | WK48 | WK46 | WK47 | WK48 | ||||
| 2214 | Apple | 321 | 53 | 54 | 24 | 432 | 432 | ||
| 4213 | Apple | 231 | 2 | ||||||
| 6345 | Carrot | 2313 | 43 | 342 | 5 | ||||
| 6477 | Pear | 234 | 24 | 32 | 1 | 5 | 5 |
it all depends on what your are required to do with it. Please provide examples of your expected results.
