Expected Out:

 

I can get my expected out using crosstab, but in my original data, I have 10 columns and 1 million rows ,

I'm looking for my expected output in Batch or iterative macro

Hi @BRRLL99 - If the number of columns is fixed, you can simply have multiple Joins and Unions in your workflow to achieve a desired outcome. No need to overcomplicate.

my number of columns changes based on the my previous iteration Macro

that's why im looking for any macro, which can map dynamically

It isn't a macro, but I think this does what you need
