    Stop wasting time creating complex formulas to transpose data in columns with multiple headers to get proper tabular data. With Excel's Power Query you can easily create a dynamic solution to transform your report-style data into a dataset you can use to run Pivot Tables on or do further analysis on with formulas.
    ⬇️ DOWNLOAD the workbook here: pages.xelplus.com/unpivot-adv...
    Unpivot means to create rows from columns. For example if you have a sales report and the months Jan - Dec are each reported in its own column. By Unpivoting we "shrink" this report with 12 columns for the months into a tabular format where all months are consolidated in one column and the data is shown in the rows. This way your data is properly structured for further analysis.
    📝 Video Overview:
    - Tackle the challenge of converting complex reports into tabular datasets.
    - Learn to handle datasets with multiple headers and totals embedded within.
    - Discover the dynamic solution to ensure automatic updates with new data additions.
    - Get detailed guidance on using Power Query to unpivot and clean your data.
    💡 Key Points:
    - Simplify complex data for easy analysis and pivot table creation.
    - Learn dynamic techniques to keep your data analysis up-to-date.
    - Transform your approach to data manipulation in Excel with expert tips.

    Leila, Thank you for posting these awesome videos. Your impressive teaching style is so easy to follow. I love Excel, but I'm mostly self taught, which can make it difficult to understand the lingo, etc., in certain tutorials as I troubleshoot. Your videos are so clear that I find myself watching them just for fun. Thank you for rekindling my love for Excel. Be well!

    I had totally different Financial Ledger data in multiple row headers. Was breaking my head to manually change to tabular format, then came across your video. Followed your steps and yo!!...structured it beautifully in a simple tabular format. Thank you so much for so clear and concise instructions.

    I've watched hundreds of Excel videos over the years, and this is probably the best I've ever seen; the perfect balance of context, explanation, insight and detail (and exactly what I needed help with today). Thank you, Leila.

    After two days of googling for tips you gave me exactly what i needed! And I love your style of presentation the best. I needed to sum up data for each cultivar of plant across all the days of the year. This makes it easy to make rows of each data point because of all the blanks for most plants on most days and because further analysis do better without blanks taking up space and memory. Eventually i want to move it to an access table and it is setup this way and keep the informative columns to the left of the actual data. Other databases like GRIN-Global are this way also but original data gathering is still best with excel condensed worksheets. THANK YOU SO MUCH! I will look to subscribe.
