Hello,
We have a requirement where business feeds Engineer availability data into excel on a daily basis in a calendar format as shown below. We are to convert it into the denormalised format as stated below which can then be used for analytics using Power BI.
Any lead on how we can achieve this format change which is not static & is maintained in different sheets of excel for different months would be of great help!
Thanks!

Hi @Anonymous ,
You can refer to the following link to process your unstructured data in Power Query.
Best way to structure Excel survey data for leveraging in Power BI?
Power BI - Transferring less structured data
Data Inconsistency excel files different structure - build a model
If possible, try to process it on the data source side first. For example, like the example in your screenshot, you can combine the data of December, day and weekday into one row as a date column just as below screenshot.
Then do the data transformation in Power Query to get the desired result. I have created a sample file(see attachment), please check if it is the result you want.
Best Regards
