How to achieve this output

Hello everyone! I am very new to Alteryx and am looking for some help to transform my data set.

 

I am working with a dataset that looks like this 

City Name New York   
Branch Name Green   
Year 2021   
     
 CategoryTarget 1 Target 2 Target 3 
 A123
 B456
 C789
 D101112
 E131415
 F161718

 

I want to take the information and create a new table where for each number I pull the Column Name, the category as well as the misc. information on the top left so that the resulting table looks sort of like this.

Hi @Ralphlahens 

 

 

Here's one way. Isolate the data and the header using sample tools. The header info needs to be cross-tabbed and appended to the dataset. Then the dataset just needs to be transposed to get the target #s how you need them.
