Change Data Format

[jamelmessaoud]

Hi guys,

I have some data imported that looks like this..

Type	01/01/2018	02/01/2018
In	10	60
Out	20	70
Total Balance	30	130

Within my load script I want to transform the output to this

Date	In	Out	Total Balance
01/01/2018	10	20	30
02/01/2018	60	70	130

Is this possible at all?

Thanks

Hi jamel,

Yes, it is possible go through with cross table.

it will convert columns to rows like as you requested.

Hi Manoj,

I tried a crosstable but couldn't figure it out.  Would you happen to know what to put within the load script?

Thanks very much

Hi,

I would CrossTable that table and then make a Pivot Table.

Temp_Table:

CrossTable(Date, Values)

LOAD Type,

     [43101],

     [43102]

FROM

(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);

Facts:

NoConcatenate

LOAD

Type,

Date(Num#(Date)) AS Date,

Values

Resident Temp_Table;

Drop Table Temp_Table;

Then you can do a Sum(Values) and create a Pivot Table. On the rows you add date and on columns you add Type.

If above is what you want then that could be one way

Best,

Hi Jamel,

While loading the excel go to the transformation step and select transpose.

it will creates the below code, no need to write the code manually. please find the below code for your reference.

LOAD Type,
In,
Out,
[Total Balance]
FROM

(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1, filters(
Rotate(right),
Rotate(right),
Rotate(right),
Rotate(right),
Transpose(),
Transpose(),
Transpose()
));
