How to Pivot multiple two column with values to a Flat format

Hi,

 

I am trying to use Power-Query to Pivot Data of multiple columns, but only able to get 1 column pivoitzed.

 

I have a table, where each 'Proj#' has 3 milestones, and each milestone has 2 columns with properties I want to flat - 'Value' and 'Date'.

 

This is the format of the original table:

And this is the desired result, where each 'Proj#' has 1 row, and 6 columns:

Required Table.PNG

 

Any help would be great.

 

Thanks,

Shai

let
    Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
    #"Unpivoted Other Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(Source, {"Proj#", "Milestones"}, "Attribute", "Value.1"),
    #"Merged Columns" = Table.CombineColumns(#"Unpivoted Other Columns",{"Milestones", "Attribute"},Combiner.CombineTextByDelimiter(" - ", QuoteStyle.None),"Merged"),
    #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Merged Columns", List.Distinct(#"Merged Columns"[Merged]), "Merged", "Value.1")
in
    #"Pivoted Column"
