Hi Friends,
I want to transform the below table in POWER Query :
| Date | ABC | DEF | GHI | JKL | MNO |
| Jun-1981 | 2608351 | 1958717 | 1178447 | 653940 | 657249 |
| Sep-1981 | 2616060 | 1964139 | 1189946 | 655136 | 663047 |
| Dec-1981 | 2624579 | 1969349 | 1200504 | 657014 | 667381 |
| Mar-1982 | 2634534 | 1975617 | 1210128 | 658840 | 672273 |
into :
| SID | Date | Volume |
| ABC | Jun-1981 | 2608351 |
| DEF | Jun-1981 | 1958717 |
| GHI | Jun-1981 | 1178447 |
| JKL | Jun-1981 | 653940 |
| MNO | Jun-1981 | 657249 |
| ABC | Sep-1981 | 2616060 |
| DEF | Sep-1981 | 1964139 |
| GHI | Sep-1981 | 1189946 |
| JKL | Sep-1981 | 655136 |
| MNO | Sep-1981 | 663047 |
| ABC | Dec-1981 | 2624579 |
| DEF | Dec-1981 | 1969349 |
| GHI | Dec-1981 | 1200504 |
| JKL | Dec-1981 | 657014 |
| MNO | Dec-1981 | 667381 |
| ABC | Mar-1982 | 2634534 |
| DEF | Mar-1982 | 1975617 |
| GHI | Mar-1982 | 1210128 |
| JKL | Mar-1982 | 658840 |
| MNO | Mar-1982 | 672273 |
The idea is to make the data struture leaner i.e. less number of columns in the data tables.
Please suggest the exact steps that need to be performed to optimally achieve the above using power query.
