Hi @QZ ,
Please try below M Code:

let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjIwMtY31DdU0lFyS0wuyS+qVACxfROTMzLzUkFMQz0IaQQmjZVidQjpAqk0Ausy0oOwidFlDGQag3UZg3UZo+oywudCEzBpCibNiNAFcZUJmDQFk8TogrjQBEyagkmgrlgA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Process Date" = _t, Area = _t, Machine = _t, EOP1 = _t, EOP2 = _t, EOP3 = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Process Date", type date}, {"Area", type text}, {"Machine", type text}, {"EOP1", type number}, {"EOP2", type number}, {"EOP3", type number}}),
#"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Changed Type", {"Process Date", "Area", "Machine"}, "Attribute", "Value"),
#"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Unpivoted Columns", List.Distinct(#"Unpivoted Columns"[Machine]), "Machine", "Value"),
#"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Pivoted Column",{{"Attribute", "Period"}})
in
#"Renamed Columns"

If this helps then mark it as a solution.
Thank you.

Hi @QZ ,
You can do this with Unpivot option in Power Query.

Try this and let me know if you have any queries.
