How to retrieve value from a single column into multiple columns

Hello,

 I have a query output where I am getting columns such as enrollment count, CRS_SUBJ_CD (course subject code),CRS_NBR (course subject number), TERM_CD etc. 

The output has all the CRS_SUBJ_CD,CRS_NBR in 2 columns.

 

Below is the snippet I am trying to recreate in PBI but struggling to get the enrollment numbers for Cross listed course. PS- Crosslisted course are same as CRS_SUBJ_CD,CRS_NBR.

 

I really appreciate if someone provides any lead.

    Hi Data_enthu ,

     

    Do you want to count by CRS_SUBJ and CRS_NBR grouping?

    Here's an example.

    You can use group by feature in Power Query. Select the both columns and click "Group By...".

    In addition to adding a column with a count, add a column that retains the original rows.

    Expand it.

       

                                                                                                                                                             

    Best Regards,
