Crosstab

Hi,

 

I have data in the below format where I have 4 columns for each set(contact name, title, email  and phone). I want to organize and split it horizontally as indicated in 2nd snapshot. I'm confused if I can directly use crosstab tool or should I do like a record id or something to group each set? Need some help on this. Thank you in advance!

@binuacsNice solution!  definitely only 1 Tile tool needed; I overcomplicated that 😁.

@BS_THE_ANALYST @binuacs  Thank you so much:) Both solutions worked, one with record id and the other one using one tile. This tile concept was new to me and happy that I learnt something new today.
