Change rows to colums

[Anonymous]

Hello everyone,

i have a table with 3 colums:

A   B   C

A - serial number
B - number 1 or 2
C - serial number

Well my task is:

A   B(1)  B(2)
     C       C

Thank you

TY!!! - Wünsche Dir auch

Hello @Anonymous 

the Text.Combine has to be used as pivot-function of your third column. Here an example

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WcjRU0lFyAhHOhkqxOjABI5CAEUTACF2FEbKKWAA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [A = _t, B = _t, C = _t]),
    #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(Source, List.Distinct(Source[B]), "B", "C", each Text.Combine(_,",")
)
in
    #"Pivoted Column"

Copy paste this code to the advanced editor in a new blank query to see how the solution works.

Hello @Anonymous 

your specification doesn't tell to much. However you can get the result by applying a pivoting-function on your 1or2 column using then SN1 as value column. But as I don't know to treat your value column, I simply applied a sum-function. This might not work in your scenario. Here the code

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WUtJRMgTjWB0wxwiMY2MB", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [SN = _t, #"1or2" = _t, SN1 = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"SN", Int64.Type}, {"1or2", Int64.Type}, {"SN1", Int64.Type}}),
    #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Changed Type", {{"1or2", type text}}, "de-DE"), List.Distinct(Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Changed Type", {{"1or2", type text}}, "de-DE")[#"1or2"]), "1or2", "SN1", List.Sum),
    #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Pivoted Column",{{"1", "1or2 - 1"}, {"2", "1or2 - 2"}})
in
    #"Renamed Columns"

Copy paste this code to the advanced editor in a new blank query to see how the solution works.
