Hello,
I wish to transform this current table into grouped table. Is it possible do this in Power Query?
Thanks in advance,
Current table:
2022 | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 |
66 | 56 | 55 | 0 |
43 | 58 | 86 | 1 |
65 | 67 | 80 | 1 |
28 | 55 | 54 | 0 |
16 | 23 | 30 | 18 |
58 | 49 | 52 | 0 |
58 | 55 | 79 | 93 |
2 | 2 | 3 | 0 |
Wished result (grouped)
2022 | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 | |
0-24 | 2 | 1 | 1 | 7 |
25-49 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
50-74 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 0 |
75-100 | 0 | 0 | 3 | 1 |
Solved! Go to Solution.
let
Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
Custom1 = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(Source,{},"Year","Value"),
Custom2 = Table.AddColumn(Custom1,"Category",each List.Skip({{75,"75-100"},{50,"50-74"},{25,"25-49"},{0,"0-24"}},(x)=>x{0}>[Value]){0}?{1}?),
Custom3 = Table.Pivot(Custom2,List.Distinct(Custom2[Year]),"Year","Value",List.Count)
in
Custom3
let
Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],

Custom2 = Table.AddColumn(Custom1,"Category",each List.Skip({{75,"75-100"},{50,"50-74"},{25,"25-49"},{0,"0-24"}},(x)=>x{0}>[Value]){0}?{1}?),
Custom3 = Table.Pivot(Custom2,List.Distinct(Custom2[Year]),"Year","Value",List.Count)

@wdx223_Daniel two can play this game...
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("PYzLDQAhCER74exBQRBrIfbfxjqY5TLJfN5EkBk10hS90um0oCnwfsXRjAwNvS2EvUL2n9RZ+ADE+JBceqb5NzemXFMtfqHZ8l7BA3+78wE=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"2022" = _t, #" 2023" = _t, #" 2024" = _t, #" 2025" = _t]),
#"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(Source, {}, "Year", "Value"),
#"Trimmed Text" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Unpivoted Columns",{{"Year", Text.Trim, type text}, {"Value", Text.Trim, type text}}),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Trimmed Text",{{"Value", Int64.Type}}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Group", each {"0-24","25-49","50-74","75-100"}{Number.RoundDown([Value]/25)}),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Added Custom", {"Year", "Group"}, {{"Count", each Table.RowCount(_), Int64.Type}}),
#"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Grouped Rows", List.Distinct(#"Grouped Rows"[Year]), "Year", "Count")
in
#"Pivoted Column"
Please check your math.
NOTE: While this can be done in Power Query it should NOT be done in Power Query. Instead, bring your data into a usable format and then let Power BI do the pivoting.
