How to reshape this data?

Hi,

 

It's probably because it's Friday, but I don't know how to reshape the data for me to work with.

 

I have an export which is currently the first line. In this example it's limited to 2 weeks, but it goes all the way to week 52.

 

My guess is that I have to unpivot columns to have it look like line 7, but how do I do that the fastest way possible?

 

The figures in column F of line 1 (week) are the number of items sold in that week of that item.

Hi @lekkerbek,

 

Yes, you need to reshape your data. Currently, you have 3 columns for each weekly, your source table will change as time goes by.

 

You could refer to the link below to see how to pivot and unpivot data in Power BI.

Thanks will try that. Sorry for the late reply, I didn't receive a notification that someone replied.
