How to Change the Layout of a Table to Have the Date as the Header

Hello everyone!

 

I am wanting to changed my table so that the date is the header row, and then the rest of the columns are beneath is with their headers on the far left like it's shown in this image below:

I've read you can unpivot columns, but would I unpivot every single column or is there a better way?

 

Much appreciated,

Hi @Anonymous ,

Here I suggest you to select [Date] column in Power Query Editor and then unpivot other columns.

@Anonymous , Use option in Matrix - Switch Values on row or show values on rows

 

do not take anything on row, take month year on the column

 

or refer if calculation group can help for more complex display

Calculation Groups- Measure Slicer, Measure Header Grouping, Measure to dimension conversion. Complex Table display : https://youtu.be/qMNv67P8Go0
