Transform Data

Hi All,

 

Having a hard time trying to transform this Excel data....

 

Trying to get it into the best possible layout to import. Thoughts?

 

Geography is cell A1

 

Here is a snippet of the data....so there are more geographies than just what is listed and also more time frames for measures across columns.
