Hi guys,
I have the below table where I have columns going across for each day (hours worked).
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjBU0lEyAGIjIDaDsk2UYnWilQwNoFxTuDBcyghJGIFjYwE=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [EmployeeID = _t, #"Monday Hours" = _t, #"Tuesday Hours" = _t, #"Wednesday Hours" = _t, #"Thursday Hours" = _t, #"Friday Hours" = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"EmployeeID", Int64.Type}, {"Monday Hours", Int64.Type}, {"Tuesday Hours", Int64.Type}, {"Wednesday Hours", Int64.Type}, {"Thursday Hours", Int64.Type}, {"Friday Hours", Int64.Type}})
in
#"Changed Type"
I would like to change this table to the below. Employee ID is repeated going down based on each day and the no. of hours. Can you please advise?
EmployeeID | Day | Hours |
1 | Monday Hours | 0 |
1 | Tuesday Hours | 2 |
1 | Wednesday Hours | 6 |
1 | Thursday Hours | 0 |
1 | Friday Hours | 4 |
10 | Monday Hours | 0 |
10 | Tuesday Hours | 5 |
10 | Wednesday Hours | 0 |
10 | Thursday Hours | 4 |
10 | Friday Hours | 4 |
12 | Monday Hours | 5 |
12 | Tuesday Hours | 0 |
12 | Wednesday Hours | 0 |
12 | Thursday Hours | 0 |
12 | Friday Hours | 0 |
Thanks
