Transform table to additional rows

[Anonymous]

Hi There,

I have a table that I need to transform into a proper table. I'm developing a timesheet table based on MS Forms output. User can input up to 5 projects. Each project is housed in 1 column, the same with the hours columns. So I ended up with 3 Project columns and 3 Hours column

My Final table should only have 1 Column for Project and Hours, each. Illustration below for reference:

Once table is done, it'll be linked to PowerBI report.

Thanks in advance for the help.

yeah, right. Do the project columns have random names or are the always called Project1-5?

It's OK. I manage to solve it, but in a round about way:

1. Merge Column Project & Hour with delimiter, resulting in 3 new columns

2. Unpivot, then you'll only have 1 value of Attribute, which is the Column from #1

3. Split the Value column with delimiter

With this I have the columns that I want. 🙂

Hi,

use the Unpivot function in PowerQuery:

Hi,

I try to unpivot, but it gaves a half solution. How should I transpose the attribute & value, but only to 2 columns while retaining to the Name & Date column?
