This is a follow up question to Solved: Re: table append - Microsoft Power BI Community.
As a summery I have to rearrange a table puting 4 columns in wide form into two columns long form. I've done this by duplicating the query with the 4 columns two times selecting the columns needed and then append the queries. After this procedure the helper queries are in the model and I cannot remove them, because the queries depending on another. This makes my model extrem ugly I will have dozens of unneeded queries in my model in future. This I want to avoid.
Does this explenation help?
