Unpivot for item and date

I need to take a query that looks like tab 1, and make it look like tab 2.  I have tried to unpivot,  but am still not getting exactly what is needed.

 
 

 

 

1 ACCEPTED SOLUTION

Select the Supplier Name, UOM, and Item Number columns, then on the Transform ribbon of Power Query, select the little dropdown next to "Unpivot Columns" and then select "Unpivot Other Columns."

Then rename the Attribute column to Date, and the Values column to whatever that is, Sales, Cost, Units, whatever.

TABLE 2

Select the Supplier Name, UOM, and Item Number columns, then on the Transform ribbon of Power Query, select the little dropdown next to "Unpivot Columns" and then select "Unpivot Other Columns."

Then rename the Attribute column to Date, and the Values column to whatever that is, Sales, Cost, Units, whatever.
