Hello All,
So I have tried pivot and having an index column in the main table and few other approaches but I cannot achieve the following. My main table is like below:
ID | Name | Name 2 | Date | Detail | Rank 1 | Rank 2 | Rank 3 | Category | Movement |
4050 | Newark | New Jersey | 12.31.2019 | East Coast -XYZ Street | 245 | 289 | 300 | State | NE |
4051 | Newark | New Jersey | 12.31.2020 | East Coast -XYZ Street | 245 | 289 | 300 | State | NE
|
And I want to display the above as is, but also show a transposed version on the bottom (transpose in M did not help):
ID | 4050 | 4051 |
Name | Newark | Newark |
Name 2 | New Jersey | New Jersey |
Date | 12.31.2019 | 12.31.2020 |
Detail | East Coast -XYZ Street | East Coast -XYZ Street |
Rank 1 | 245 | 245 |
Rank 2 | 289 | 289 |
Rank 3 | 300 | 300 |
Category | State | State |
Movement | NE | NE |
In the end, I want the above to only display the transposed value of one selected row, so if someone clicks on row one it basically should show the transpose of that (Column Name's as rows and corresponding values and as the next value column).
Thank You

Hi,
This M code works
let Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content], #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"ID", Int64.Type}, {"Name", type text}, {"Name 2", type text}, {"Date", type text}, {"Detail", type text}, {"Rank 1 ", Int64.Type}, {"Rank 2", Int64.Type}, {"Rank 3", Int64.Type}, {"Category", type text}, {"Movement", type text}}), #"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Changed Type", "Index", 1, 1), #"Unpivoted Other Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Added Index", {"Index"}, "Attribute", "Value"), Partition = Table.Group(#"Unpivoted Other Columns", {"Index"}, {{"Partition", each Table.AddIndexColumn(_, "Index1",1,1), type table}}), #"Expanded Partition" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(Partition, "Partition", {"Attribute", "Value", "Index1"}, {"Attribute", "Value", "Index1"}), #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Expanded Partition", {{"Index", type text}}, "en-IN"), List.Distinct(Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Expanded Partition", {{"Index", type text}}, "en-IN")[Index]), "Index", "Value"), #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Pivoted Column",{"Index1"}) in #"Removed Columns"
The only thing i cannot get to work here is the order of the items in the attribute column to match your order.
Hope this helps.

@nirvana_moksh hope attached will do the job.

@parry2k - Thanks a lot for taking a stab at this! I did the same initially, and instead of joining to the ID column, in the main table I defined an Index Column which I utilized instead to connect to the other table wherein I did the unpivoting, but this is not working as expected on my end with my entire data set. Also worth mentioning my ID is not a distinct column and each ID might have multiple rows which is the reason I defined the index column. Any other suggestions if you may have?
@nirvana_moksh using index column make sense to bring unique id. So what exactly is not working on your dataset?

@parry2k - Using the index column for the relationship for some reason does not filter the secondary table correctly (clicking on a row on the main table shows up the "first value" of some other row). Just for the sake of it, I used the ID column and that worked, which I think is odd. In your opinion is the usage of an

index column as a unique identifier a good approach? Because I do use the same logic for other solutions for dynamic axis change. When I check the index column id for one row on the main table and the same for the second it matches, but the value output is not correct for some reason
Thank You
@nirvana_moksh i used index it worked as expected. Not sure why in your case it wouldn't work. Does it not work for any of the header level record or works for few and not for others. Just trying to narrow down the issue here although there is no logical explanation.

@parry2k - Sadly, doesn't work for anything at all. Like for row 1 see the index is 1 and after that when I see what is the output from the second table and the index for 1 shows up a value for say index 2987. Still trying to figure what can wrong in this process.
@nirvana_moksh here is updated version with index, see if it helps you to find the issue at your end.
