    Hello Anonymous 

     

    if I got you right you need the pivot-function. Check out this solution

    let
    	Source = #table
    	(
    		{"Company","Week","Value"},
    		{
    			{"A","Week 1","1"},	{"A","Week 2","2"},	{"A","Week 3","3"},	{"A","Week 4","4"},	{"B","Week 1","5"},	{"B","Week 2","6"},	{"B","Week 3","7"},	{"B","Week 4","8"},	
    			{"B","Week 5","9"},	{"C","Week 1","10"},	{"C","Week 2","11"},	{"C","Week 3","12"},	{"C","Week 4","13"}
    		}
    	),
        ChangedType = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Value", Int64.Type}}),
        Pivot = Table.Pivot(ChangedType, List.Distinct(ChangedType[Week]), "Week", "Value", List.Sum)
    in
        Pivot

     

    Copy paste this code to the advanced editor in a new blank query to see how the solution works. If this solution fits your need, copy and past a part of it and implement it in your query or just select the week-column and select Transform -> Pivot column. In my solution i selected SUM for the aggregation. Change this if another calculation is needed (in case of multiple rows on Company/week-level.
