Hi @ShrikantAlteryx ,

 

I'm sure we can help, but can you please post the data rather than a picture of the data?

 

Thanks.

Thank you for your willingness to help, I appreciate it. I have attached the file to this post. Please not you may see some blank rows which are left intentionally blank to add future month records.

 

One thought I am having is create Named ranges in Excel and then import them one at a time and append the data to output file. Please let me know if you have other solutions in mind.

 

Thanks,

Shrikant

@ShrikantAlteryx ,

My solution is attached. I hope it may help.

In summary;

1. Break the sheet to three tables with the same format.

2. Union them

3. Remove null rows 

    * The second column was a little tricky at a first glance, as it contained unusual character (non-break space).

4. Set MIS and Location using Multi-Row Formula tool.

5. Rename the columns with Dynamic Rename tool.
