Anonymous try the last approach I sent. Reason I asked what is your data source, not for you to send it to me but to see if it is a SQL Server or something like that and we can send this pivoting to the backend.

 

Since it is CSV, so data prep has to happen in PQ. Anyhow, go with my most recent approach, splitting vendor and result into two different tables and then use the relationship to visualize the data. Try that first and we can go from there.
