Thanks for wanting to help! It should be a simple one....
I currently have a table that looks like this:
| Audio | Video | Audio Poor | Video Poor |
May | 10 | 8 | 4 | 2 |
June | 12 | 7 | 2 | 1 |
And I'm looking for Power Query to give me this:
| Type | Count | Poor Count |
May | Audio | 10 | 4 |
May | Video | 8 | 2 |
June | Audio | 12 | 2 |
June | Video | 7 | 1 |
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi,
This M code works
let
Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Data"]}[Content],
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Month", type text}, {"Audio", Int64.Type}, {"Video", Int64.Type}, {"Audio Poor", Int64.Type}, {"Video Poor", Int64.Type}}),
#"Unpivoted Other Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Changed Type", {"Month"}, "Attribute", "Value"),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Unpivoted Other Columns", "Custom", each if Text.Contains([Attribute],"Poor") = true then "Poor count" else "Count"),
#"Replaced Value" = Table.ReplaceValue(#"Added Custom"," Poor","",Replacer.ReplaceText,{"Attribute"}),
#"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Replaced Value", List.Distinct(#"Replaced Value"[Custom]), "Custom", "Value"),
#"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort(#"Pivoted Column",{{"Month", Order.Descending}})
in
#"Sorted Rows"
Hope this helps.
