Hi,
I am relevatively new to Power BI and have looked through a few of the previous posts regarding pivtoing data but I dont seem to find what I need. Below is an example data set, where the numer of sales of each car in each month is represented in the Mar-18/Apr-18 columns.
Car | Price | Mar-18 | Apr-18 |
Nissan | $500 | 1 | 2 |
Toyota | $700 | 3 | 4 |
What I need to do is pivot the data from the Mar-18 column, creating two new columns, Month and Sales and adding extra rows.
Car | Price | Month | Sales |
Nissan | $500 | Mar-18 | 1 |
Nissan | $500 | Apr-18 | 2 |
Toyota | $700 | Mar-18 | 3 |
Toyota | $700 | Apr-18 | 4 |
This can be done in tableau, but I am having trouble with Power BI. Maybe I am missing something, any ideas?
Many Thanks,
JBPowerBI

@Anonymous The best place to do this in PowerBI is in the Query Editor. Highliht the columns you want to unpivot and then chose unpivot from the Transorm menu.
