Transforming Vertical Data to Horizontal Format in Excel

Masond3
8 - Asteroid

Hi Team,

I have an Excel file that contains the following columns:

  • Id (Column A)
  • BMW (Column B)
  • Porsche (Column C)

In Columns B and C, the business has populated each cell with either a value of (A) or (R). (There are also Records which have no value populated)

Example Data 

IDBMWPorsche
11111A 
22222 A
33333AA
44444R 
55555 R
66666RR
77777  


I would like to transform this data from a vertical to a horizontal format.

Desired output 


Id Outcome
11111BMW - A
22222Porsche - A
33333BMW - A
33333Porsche - A
44444BMW - R
55555Porsche - R
66666BMW - R
66666Porsche - R

 

Looking forward to your assistance 

Regards
