Hi @mazeem 

 

You can use the multi-row formula tool to help with this:

 

  1. I used multi-row formula tools to find the rows that started with 'Group' or 'Subgroup'. Then was able to repeat those values in a new column until it came across the next group/subgroup
  2. I filtered to just the rows with account numbers
  3. Renamed the fields.
