Transpose Columns to Rows

LuneLune

Hello,

1) I changed my dataset in Excel from this:

LuneLune_0-1609760842488.png

 


2) to this(good result):

LuneLune_1-1609760866046.png

 



3)I tried the same thing in Alteryx but Transpose function gives the different result(all rows converted into two columns).

How I can get the same result as in the excel picture number(2).

Thanks for your help,
LuneLune

Hi @LuneLune 

 

You might have to use crosstab after this. Can you provide me the sample input as excel file i can help you out.

Hi @LuneLune,

 

After transposing your columns to rows using the transpose tool, you can use the cross-tab tool to pivot the toy names to columns as can be seen in the sample workflow attached.

And Yup @FlorianC has the perfect solution workflow for it.

 

Hi @FlorianC 

 

Just curious, is there is a specific reason why you have chosen to share a packaged workflow instead of normal workflow. Just curious 🙂

Thanks Florian,

Can you just share a normal workflow instead of the packaged one?

Here is my original file.

Hi @atcodedog05,

 

Good question. I guess it is out of habit to ensure all dependencies are included. 😁
