Transform text lines into date columns

What I think the reason could be is, that your data does not seem to have strictly two rows for a particular project number and month i.e. The Budget and The Spent. Apart from these two, there are certain rows for a particular project number and month which are null as well that get picked up while expanding when just "Column1" and "Column2" are asked to be picked up by the code. I'll leave the changed code where I have tried remove any null values from the list after grouping ( List.RemoveNulls(_[Value]) ) which eventually expand just the rows with numbers. Thanks!let
Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name = "Table1"]}[Content],
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Project", Int64.Type}}),
#"Unpivoted Other Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Changed Type", {"Project"}, "Attribute", "Value"),
Custom1 = Table.TransformColumns(#"Unpivoted Other Columns", {"Attribute", each Text.End(_,3)}),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(Custom1, {"Project", "Attribute"}, {{"All", each _[Value]}}),
Custom2 = Table.TransformColumns(#"Grouped Rows",{"All", each List.RemoveNulls(_)}),
#"Extracted Values" = Table.TransformColumns(Custom2, {"All", each Text.Combine(List.Transform(_, Text.From), ";"), type text}),
#"Split Column by Delimiter" = Table.SplitColumn(#"Extracted Values", "All", Splitter.SplitTextByDelimiter(";", QuoteStyle.Csv), {"All.1", "All.2"}),
#"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Split Column by Delimiter",{{"All.1", type text}, {"All.2", type text}})

#"Changed Type1"
When you grouped the column and recieved the table in the column "Todos". The column that I extracted "Value", is the amount column name "Value" as well? If not, then change the _[ColumnName] that is _[Valor]. Post this, you can simply follow the next steps in the code. Let me know if this works. Thanks
It did not. And this time I tried to make eve the column names as similar to your instructions as possible:
The columns were created, but with values null (here I'm displaying the last rows, but al of them are null😞
