Hi nerdlump ,
You need to use the Unpivot / Pivot options:
- Select the 3 Purchase columns
- Unpivot
- Select the Brand Column
- Pivot - By Value
Check the M code below:
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WcipKzEtRMFTSUTI0MACSlqZAwsxUKVYHJmcEErUEEhYgKRNkKWOQqAVEA9AAoFQsAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Brand = _t, #"Purchase Intent 1" = _t, #"Purchase Intent 2" = _t, #"Purchase Intent 3" = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Brand", type text}, {"Purchase Intent 1", Int64.Type}, {"Purchase Intent 2", Int64.Type}, {"Purchase Intent 3", Int64.Type}}), #"Unpivoted Only Selected Columns" = Table.Unpivot(#"Changed Type", {"Purchase Intent 1", "Purchase Intent 2", "Purchase Intent 3"}, "Attribute", "Value"), #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Unpivoted Only Selected Columns", List.Distinct(#"Unpivoted Only Selected Columns"[Brand]), "Brand", "Value", List.Sum) in #"Pivoted Column"Regards,
