I think a Batch Macro should do it.

I think the problem is that you have two sets of dates... Ideally you'd have one set of dates across the top and empty fields where no information exists - then a simple transpose with key columns of Hours, Maker/Checker, and Process would give you what you want (and you can filter out the blank entries.).

 

With data like this - what I'd do is still transpose with those three key columns then transfer over to the name column where the values are the new dates. Then use a multi-row to change out the old dates and finally a filter to take out the row with dates in the value fields...

 

I've attached a workflow that shows how to do that.
