Hi VivianaTudora,

 

As far as I know, SAP uses the relational database that means it wouldn't store data like it in the Excel. I would suggest you connect to the SAP directly and retrieve data into Power BI. Then edit it in the Query Editor, which has many data manipulating functions.

 

Best Regards,

Dale
