Hi all,
I have a survey from survey monkey that I have loaded into Power Bi. Its a column (the question) with the response below it as the value.
In addition to this, I created a table that outlines how many points each value is worth below:
What I'm trying to do is either create a new table that replaces the responses with point values (it would look like the top picture except with points as values)
OR
Come up with a way to replaces the words within the table with point values.
Can anyone share with me how I would best go about this?
Thank you in advance!
Hi @Anonymous, Usually for Survey questions, it is easier if you pivot your table.
1.) Pivot your Question table as below.
ID | Question | Answer |
1 | Question1 | Answer1 |
2 | Question2 | Answer2 |
3 | Question3 | Answer3 |
2.)Points table,
Answer | Points |
Answer1 | 3 |
Answer2 | 1 |
Answer3 | 0 |
Create 1-1 or 1-* relationship between Points[Answer] and Question[Answer] columns,
And then create a new table visual, with columns Question[Question] and Points[Points].
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Thanks @snokku. I would do that but how do I not pivot the ID portion of the row. The respondant's ID is on the same row as the responses. Is there a way to pivot just the responses while keeping ID as a column?\
Thanks in advance.
@Anonymous , You can replace option in Power Query editor /Data Transformation

Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.
@amitchandak My forum status won't let me share pbix documents for some reason. But I'll create tables in here if that helps.
How often are employees equipped? | Are observational routines utilized? | Do these take into consideration safety guidelines? |
Sometimes | Yes | No |
Sometimes | 2 |
Yes | 1 |
No | 0 |
I want these to turn into this:
How often are employees equipped? | Are observational routines utilized? | Do these take into consideration safety guidelines? |
2 | 1 | 0 |
Does this help?
