Hi Guys,

I have data in the below format 

ProductOrder DateShip Date
P101-Jan-2004-Jan-20
P202-Jan-2005-Jan-20
P306-Jan-2006-Jan-20

 

and want to produce an excel output shown as below, 

 

 OrderedShipped
Product01-Jan-2002-Jan-2006-Jan-2004-Jan-2005-Jan-2006-Jan-20
P11  1  
P2 1  1 
P3  1  1

This looks simple, but I am not sure how to create the top sub header (ordered and shipped). Any help would be appreciated!

@DavidP  - Not really 😞 but thanks for your efforts , I managed to fix it myself using a report text and summarize tool! (Attached the workflow)

@ramesh_neel, every day is a school day! I wouldn't have thought of using the summarize tool to combine reporting objects.

 

I'm definitely banking that idea!

@DavidP  - Me neither! I think that feature is a life saver!
