I am new to Power Bi. If anyone is familair with Primavera it would help with the question I have. I am trying to load a csv file with the timescale from Primavera. Of course the dates that run horizontal are text based and the number values in the columns are general. I tried to unpivot all the timescale columns. It did not recognize the headers. I then cleaned up my headers, which I don't want to do, and it changed the dates to an attribute. I really need this to be dynamic since date ranges change depending on the project. My end goal is to be able to have all the hours in a histogram budgeted hours daily. Is this possible with Power Bi without being really complex ?

@benntw72 , check if unpivot other columns can help
select only those which you want to be the same. in that case I will work even if date column increase

I kept all the other columns I didn't want to unpivot. I only wanted the timescale dates to unpivot. I wanted to keep cloumns A thru T the same. I removed column U and then did the unpivot on the rest to the right.

I am still stuck at the same point. I tried doing replace, change data type, and then unpivot. I was hoping that I could use Power Bi to clean the data and arrange it the way excel can. I was wrong about it from what I can try and figure out. I think I will stick with trusty old excel to perform my reports. I am starting to see that Power Bi is a lot like MS Access with horizontal data with date headers and number values in columns. Primavera is a unique program that produces excellent CSV files, but outside of excel they do not line up easily.
