Help with Cyclic Groups and Pie Chart visualization

Hello, how are you? I'd like some help with a dynamic visualization of my date. I have a table like this in the photo and i'm trying to create Cyclic Groups to show this data as a pie chart. I want the user to be able to select a category, say "REASONS 1 TO 2", and he'll be able to se the percentage of "REASON 1"  of the total "REASON 1" + "REASON 2". The same thing goes to the other reasons. How do I do that in Qlik Sense with a table like this one?

1 transpose your data into the following structure from a pivot view

Category, Reason, Count

using https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense/November2022/Subsystems/Hub/Content/Sense_Hub/Scripting/ScriptPref...

2. bucket you data into Reason Groups.

example If(Match(Reason, 'Reason 1','Reason 2')>0, 'REASON 1 TO 2', 'REASON 3 TO 5') as "Reason Groups"

In the visuals you could either

1. create a drill down Master Dimension using Reason Group > Reason for your pie chart

2. create a Alternate Dimension using Reason Group and Reason for your pie chart to flip between

3. create a Reason pie chart and use a trellis container dimension set to Reason Group.

I'm sorry but i'm new to Qlik Sense and i'm  finding it very difficult to understand. How do I do the item 2?

do you have a sample of your data you can share?

you need to do it in the load script.

I'm currently using a excel spreadsheet to test the visualization. First I need to understand the second part of your advice since I can easy do the first in excel. So here's a samples of an already pivoted table. I'm trying to use it in Qlik to do the visualization.

LOAD
*,
If(Match(Reason, 'REASON 1','REASON 2')>0, 'REASON 1 TO 2', 'REASON 3 TO 5') as "Reason Groups"
;
LOAD
A AS Category,
"REASON 1" as Reason,
"28" AS "Count"
FROM [lib://Community:DataFiles/Pasta2.xlsx]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Planilha1);

will do your step 2.

you can then produce visuals like.

Got It! Thanks! 

I used only the following part and worked fine:

LOAD
*,
If(Match(Reason, 'REASON 1','REASON 2')>0, 'REASON 1 TO 2', 'REASON 3 TO 5') as "Reason Groups"
;

Now I'll study more about pivoting my table
