change row values to column names
Hi , I want to change row values to column names. In the Power BI query there is Pivot column option, but since I have two columns as value, that solution did not work for me.
Thanks in advance!

You need to use a combination of Unpivot Columns and Pivot Columns.
Please see attached pbix file for detailed Power Query Transformation steps. Trust you can follow along.
In the future, please paste sample data as text, not as a picture. This will make it easier for folks to assist.
