Hi,

 

you can actually do this with pivot option in the power query. please see below. Code also attached!qa.JPG

 

let
    Source = Excel.Workbook(File.Contents("C:\Users\Dilumd\OneDrive - \help file.xlsx"), null, true),
    Sheet1_Sheet = Source{[Item="Sheet1",Kind="Sheet"]}[Data],
    #"Promoted Headers" = Table.PromoteHeaders(Sheet1_Sheet, [PromoteAllScalars=true]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Promoted Headers",{{"Date", type date}, {"Time", type time}, {"Price", Int64.Type}, {"Description", type text}}),
    #"Reordered Columns" = Table.ReorderColumns(#"Changed Type",{"Date", "Time", "Description", "Price"}),
    #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Reordered Columns", List.Distinct(#"Reordered Columns"[Description]), "Description", "Price")
in
    #"Pivoted Column"
