when you import the excel file use the transformation step and use Cross table
Should work

		u can simply load ur data first,
then use the pivot table and manually u can move rows as column or columns as rows on pivot table
else in ur edit script,u can use crosstable() for this see this thread

		Hi,
CrossTable is your friend in this case
 Gysbert_Wassena
		
			Gysbert_WassenaYou can use the crosstable function to transform the data.
CrossTable(Type, Value, 3)
LOAD
Facility,
Date,
Categories,
Doctors,
Nurses,
Paramedics,
[Admin & Support]
FROM ...excel_file....
Then create a pivot table object with Facility, Date, Type and Categories as dimensions. Drag the Categories dimension to the right above the expressions to pivot it to horizontal layout.
