Hi H_insight ,
this can be done with a bit of Power Query Magic:// Result let Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content], #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Client Key", type text}, {"Client", type text}, {"Type", type text}, {"Score", Int64.Type}, {"Status", type text}, {"ref Key", type text}}), #"Duplicated Column" = Table.DuplicateColumn(#"Changed Type", "Type", "Type - Copy"), #"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Duplicated Column", "Index", 0, 1, Int64.Type), #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Added Index", List.Distinct(#"Added Index"[Type]), "Type", "Type - Copy"), #"Reordered Columns" = Table.ReorderColumns(#"Pivoted Column",{"Client Key", "Client"} & SortOrder & {"Score", "Status", "ref Key"}), #"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort(#"Reordered Columns",{{"Client Key", Order.Ascending}} & List.Transform(SortOrder, each {_, Order.Descending})), #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Sorted Rows",{"Index"}) in #"Removed Columns" // SortOrder let Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table2"]}[Content], #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Column1", type text}}), Custom1 = #"Changed Type"[Column1] in Custom1Please check the file enclosed.
Please not that I've used a "helper table" for the sort order that you have had in your file already.
If there will be more actions or projects in your data, you can adjust that table and the result query will consider these values accordingly.

#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Client Key", type text}, {"Client", type text}, {"Type", type text}, {"Score", Int64.Type}, {"Status", type text}, {"ref Key", type text}}),
#"Duplicated Column" = Table.DuplicateColumn(#"Changed Type", "Type", "Type - Copy"),
#"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Duplicated Column", "Index", 0, 1, Int64.Type),
#"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Added Index", List.Distinct(#"Added Index"[Type]), "Type", "Type - Copy"),
#"Reordered Columns" = Table.ReorderColumns(#"Pivoted Column",{"Client Key", "Client"} & SortOrder & {"Score", "Status", "ref Key"}),
#"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort(#"Reordered Columns",{{"Client Key", Order.Ascending}} & List.Transform(SortOrder, each {_, Order.Descending})),
#"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Sorted Rows",{"Index"})
in
#"Removed Columns"
// SortOrder
let
Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table2"]}[Content],
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Column1", type text}}),
Custom1 = #"Changed Type"[Column1]
in
Custom1
