Repivoting Data for a Table Visual

Hi,

 

I have the following data:

 

Name01/01/2201/02/2201/03/22 
John10.50.5 
Jill0.50.20.3 

 

Because I wanted to use a Date calendar table as a slicer for my visuals, I unpivoted the table above. It now looks as follows, and this works quite well with most of my visuals:

 

NameDateFTE
John01/01/221
John01/02/220.5
John01/03/220.5
Jill01/01/220.5
Jill01/02/220.2
Jill01/03/220.3

 

 

However, I would like one of my visiuals to like my table before I unpivoted (i.e. a regular table visual with the column headers as dates). What would be the best way to do this? Currently, I have a Pivoted and Unpivoted version of data to be used for different visuals, but this seems a like a clunky solution and is causing havoc with my slicers! Any help would be much appreciated.

@Anonymous , You can use matrix visual. Date as column
