Trying to create a column per year

[Anonymous]

Hi Guys!

I do haven issue, I've been told to make a column based on another column call month_id.

Basically it's the combine of year and month.

And I need to make a table like this one below.  Adding a column per mes_id.

Segment	202001	202002
S1	.00001	.2300
S2	.002341	.009134

I tried by pivot but not sure yet how it works.

Does anybody have  an idea how can I reach this result?

Thanks for the help!

You can by using the Pivot Column feature in the Transpose tab of Power Query but I recommend against it. It will make your life miserable when trying to create visuals and measures in DAX. Plus, if you have thousands or millions of rows, it won't pivot. It will just throw an error.

Pull your data in as is. Then add a Matrix visual, and add the mes_id column to the Columns setting, Segments to the rows, and your data to the values. It will just work.

If that doesn't help, please share a PBIX file with some sample data so we can see the entire picture. Your sample image for example doesn't have the data you want in your expected result, so it is kinda hard to ensure a proposed solution will work.
