Hi there

I need to change my data in row 3 to look like it does in row 4. Please see my sample.

How can I do that in Alteryx?

 

Thanks

Here's another way but @Emil_Kos 's solution is cleaner, IMHO.

Thanks both for those, very helpful

 

I forgot to mention that I need the titles of the columns to also be combined, like in my updated sample, would that also be possible?

 

thanks again

I'm sure @Emil_Kos will come up with something better, in the meantime...
Split out the Names and concatenate them, then Union the rest to it.

Same thing, but concatenate both field and value in the Summarize, then peel off the field names and data from each other and stack them with the Union tool set to Autoconfig by Position.

Hi @David-Carnes,

 

I don't think there is a better solution than the second one that you have proposed. Hope you don't mind as I have used your find to add additional functionality that might be useful for @BillyL14

In case you want the header to still be a header you need to use the dynamic rename tool to achieve that.

@Emil_Kos @David-Carnes 

thanks both, what you gave me worked perfectly fr what I provided, however I should have mentioned that I would multiple lines of data, when I tried it took everything and put it in one line, it is possible to summarize as I have done on below example?

 

thanks again
