Converting table with Dual Headers into standard table and pivot table

ppatane

I have a poorly setup table that I need to get to a standard table and a pivot table.  The 1st header row contains the year and quarter combined; the 2nd is the month and the 1st column header. It covers 3 years.

These are what the output needs to be.  I have done this with power query in Excel but need to now accomplish this in Alteryx.  Getting the pivot table is not as critical as getting the standard table.

Hi @ppatane ,

 

Here's one way of doing this.

Standard Table

I needed "Month2" to sort the "Totals" table. You may remove with Select tool.

A workflow example without hardcode
year and quarter fields need to be created separately

 

The other suggestion is excellent @Yoshiro_Fujimori
