Create table with dates and categories

Hi!

I have a single column table containing dates as below:

Each day is on a separate line - no duplicates. Now I would like to add a new column with categories. I would like to create rows so that each contains a date + category combination. The end result would look like this:

datecategorie
01.01.2019Categorie A
01.01.2019Categorie B
02.01.2019Categorie A
02.01.2019Categorie B
03.01.2019Categorie A
03.01.2019

Categorie B

 

And so on...

Do you have an idea how to automate this process so that I don't have to manually enter each combination one by one?

  • You start with 2 tables (dates and categories).  In the dates table, add a custom column.

    In the dialog that pops up just write CategoryTable[the Column]  <-- Your names here

    Then Expand the Column 'To Rows'
