Auto create tables based on variables

Posted on by carlblunck 17

Hi community,

 

I have a set of data in a SharePoint list that is in this format:

 

Cost CentreYearSalaryYearSalaryYearSalary
T4511202410000202510000202610000
T45272023450020245000  
O10582025500020264500202710000

 

I need to transform this into a table that then looks like this:

 

Cost CentreYearSalary
T4511202410000
T4511202510000
T4511202610000
T452720234500
T452720245000
O105820255000
O105820264500
O1058202710000

 

I'm currently doing this by:

  1. Duplicating the base table
  2. Removing the columns from the other year and salary columns that I don't need to pivot
  3. Pivoting the year and salary columns
  4. Repeat for each year
  5. Appending all the tables back together at the end

Curious to know if there is a way automate this rather than having to create each table?

 

Cheers

Carl
