Transform Data in Power Query

[D3K]

Hello everyone!

Looking for a help here, cause I'm stuck 🙂
I have a table with a pretty complicated structure and need to transform it in a correct database type

In a single column we have Phone ID, Date, Order Number and SKU ID one under another.

Please the image below

 How is it possible to transform original table to the target view?

Any help will be highly appreciated

Thanks a lot!

Hi @D3K 

Try this

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("rZNNboNADEavgtg2sfw7trlEDxBl13ZXVcr9F2XIEBiVLCqFFfLj8+BnuFzGN3EbyAc2Pxc5p46nkRwBsd5gMVAar6fL+H77+LwNWC8SKhTD1+3neyAFDGBkGogn44lyDnK0BoXAc8kvSQyPegI37JC4o2lOG2UG3VESw9hoyS7LaGG13DoLqG5UhFRqmRpWkF1YCnoN6yNspad1qDWLwPlHiVGINSUCmE2JTaiTljkmLc4zC32NEsxQ31HqsmTOtSx3KgyzoY7KUyqci85t5rQDnbKuuTtY1FM2nSoQ+E+driredBrUZxadMnGZhOv7rrsq8/Av+sJWncdDkwbyRrOHzfWTaHN9vCc2vru2O45+E/NPqLvO1G/icE/XXw==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Status = _t, Quantity = _t, Price = _t]),
    #"Reordered Columns" = Table.ReorderColumns(Source,{"Status", "Quantity", "Price"}),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Reordered Columns", "Phone ID", each if Text.StartsWith([Status],"+") then [Status] else null),
    #"Added Conditional Column" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "ORDER Number", each if Text.StartsWith([Status], "Order") then Text.Middle([Status],6,11) else null),
    #"Added Conditional Column1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Conditional Column", "Date", each if Text.StartsWith([Status], "Order") then Text.Middle([Status],23,10) else null),
    #"Added Conditional Column2" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Conditional Column1", "SKU ID", each if not Text.StartsWith([Status],"+") and not Text.StartsWith([Status], "Order") then [Status] else null),
    #"Reordered Columns1" = Table.ReorderColumns(#"Added Conditional Column2",{"Status", "Date", "Phone ID", "ORDER Number", "SKU ID", "Quantity", "Price"}),
    #"Filled Down" = Table.FillDown(#"Reordered Columns1",{"Date", "Phone ID", "ORDER Number"}),
    #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Filled Down", each ([SKU ID] <> null)),
    #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Filtered Rows",{"Status"})
in
    #"Removed Columns"
