Select the first 2 columns, unpivot other columns.

Adjust the generated code with regard to the names of the new columns.

Split the Estat column with custom delimiter " any ".
Adjust both lines of the generated code with regard to the names of the new columns.

 

 

let
    Source = Table3,
    #"Unpivoted Other Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(Source, {"Contracte", "Tipus contracte"}, "Estat", "Import"),
    #"Split Column by Delimiter" = Table.SplitColumn(#"Unpivoted Other Columns", "Estat", Splitter.SplitTextByDelimiter(" any ", QuoteStyle.Csv), {"Estat", "Any"}),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Split Column by Delimiter",{{"Estat", type text}, {"Any", Int64.Type}})
in
    #"Changed Type"
