hpatel123_1-1683591841892.png

 

Hi, 

i have a table like above. How can i transform this to something like below so all start and end dates are consolidated to two columns? This will help me build my xviz gantt chart.

disregard my last question. i was able to figure it out. i created another custom column to T&C, SPC1-2, and SPC3-7, then pivoted the columns, which worked!

Thank you amitchandak. Your steps helped me a little to get closer to where i want to be, but not there yet. Below screenshot shows Start and End dates date showing 'null' and additional unnessary rows.

Hi,

Share raw data in a format that can be pasted in an MS Excel file.

@hpatel123 , step one unpivot all date columns.

Step  2- Split by a delimiter, use option first delimiter in power query (There will 2 columns)

Create a New Column in power query

= if Text.Contains([Part 2 of split], "Start)  then "Start Date" else "End Date")

 

 

Delete the part 2 column now 

select the new column with Start and end date and Date and pivot that
