Ranking Columns
Hi
I would like to create a top 5 defect list with the data you see below. I am trying to combine all the columns named defect in a way, that I do not lose the identity of the rows (there is more data to the left).
I thought I had it by unpivoting the defect columns then use grouping. What I found out was that the rows that didn’t have a defect were gone after I did that. Is there a way around this?
Thanks
John

Hi Anonymous ,
Sorry for that we don’t understand your issue clearly.
What conversion operations did you do in Power Query? Do you want to merge the three defect columns into one like the following screenshot and calculate the Top 5 based on points?
If it doesn’t meet your requirement, could you please provide a mockup sample based on fake data or describe the fields of each tables and the relations between tables simply?
It will be helpful if you can show us the exact expected result based on the tables.

You can duplicate the all the defects column and then unpivot them.
You will not lose the data with null defects.
