    Check your column "OrderID"

    Replace null by Amount

    Pivot on this column

You're nearly there :-)

 

Now check the column "Attribute.2" and pivot on it.

Choose "Value" for the Value and no aggregates in the advanced options.

Thanks for the help, the Pivot/Unpivot feature looks like it could be very useful.
