Pivoting Two Columns, Is it Possible?

[wherdzik]

I want to Pivot Item Types but for ItemFTE and ProratedSalaryAllocation.  I can only do one of those columns but not both.

Is that even possible?

This is the only way I am able to do it, It wont let me bring in the ProratedSalaryAllocation colum.  

I want the end result to look something like this.

Thanks for your help.

Hi @wherdzik ,

Consider grouping and then unpivot column before transposing.

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45Wcs7JzMtMTsxR0lEyBGJjA1NDS6VYHQwJQwMzQ3NzdBkDPTMgaWRsaIlDysLc2MwAhy5MCZBFpiYWZqZYXWBpZmxhhmmWOcgsS3NDiGn+JRmpRQq6Cp55JalFeVAlBqYgNYZGRriVgGwwMTIxAasISi1OTSxKzgAqcq3AaQ4uVQijYgE=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [ItemType = _t, ItemFTE = _t, ProratedSalaryAllocation = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"ItemType", type text}, {"ItemFTE", type number}, {"ProratedSalaryAllocation", Int64.Type}}),
    #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"ItemType"}, {{"ItemFTE", each List.Sum([ItemFTE]), type nullable number}, {"ProratedSalaryAllocation", each List.Sum([ProratedSalaryAllocation]), type nullable number}}),
    #"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Grouped Rows", {"ItemType"}, "Attribute", "Value"),
    #"Transposed Table" = Table.Transpose(#"Unpivoted Columns")
in
    #"Transposed Table"

And the output:

Merge the Columns by delimiter and then Pivot the Merged Column and Do Not Aggregate.  Split by Delimiter after the Pivot.
