Need some help with a transpose

Hey folks, 

 

I am having a bit of trouble figuring out a transpose/pivot of data from a report I am receiving. 

 

Currently the report I get is like the following sample table:

 

NameVolumeMiles
John  
2021-03-01

200

40
Lisa  
2021-03-0115025
Pam  
2021-03-0131018
John  
2021-03-0225050

Lisa

  
2021-03-0220045
Pam  
2021-03-0229030

 

And I would like to have the following output: 

 

DateNameVolumeMiles
2021-03-01John20040
2021-03-01Lisa15025
2021-03-01Pam31018
2021-03-02John25050
2021-03-02Lisa20045
2021-03-02Pam29030

 

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated as I have been noodling on this for the past couple of days.

Hi @ej3225,

 

A combination of filter tool + join tool will do a trick:

Just remember that in the join tool you need to join the records by position:

Output:
