Dear all,

I would like to merge/combine different rows with same ID into a single row with multiple columns? The number of columns can be different (depends on how many corresponding accounts there are). I have attached Excel sheet also, hoping it helps to understand the matter.

Regards,

Urmas

Hi Urmas,

The correct layout for your data is your 'current table'. From there you can use a PivotTable to group the rows with the same ID into a single row. See attached.

If that's not the layout you want, then create a mockup manually so we can see how the data gets from your current table to your desired table.

Hello,

Thank you for the question.

In its current form, the table does not show, for example, the aggregate turnover of the counter accounts of account 11030. Observation by individual rows is not reasonable in case of 100 thousand rows (or even more). In the desired format, on the other hand, the table allows you to select a specific account (for example, 11030) and see what the total turnover of the counter accounts (determined via respective ID) is.

Hopefully it clarifies the matter.

 

Regards,

Urmas

Hi Urmas,

Please upload an example file that illustrates your desired result. Your explanation is difficult to follow, especially since I don't know what you mean by 'the counter accounts'.

Thanks,

Mynda

Hello,

Seems that the Pivot Tabel matter complicated the case.

The ultimate goal is to convert data from "2 or more rows" format to one row format:

ID Account no Description Date Deebet Kreedit Type
2548 11000 Kassa 09.01.2018 0,00 9 500,00 Laekumised (va arved)
2548 11021 Kassa 09.01.2018 9 500,00 0,00 Laekumised (va arved)
ID Account no Description Date Deebet Kreedit Type Account no1 Description1 Date1 Deebet1 Kreedit1 Type1
2548 11000 Kassa 43109 0 9500 Laekumised (va arved) 11021 Kassa 43109 9500 0 Laekumised (va arved)

I assume it should be a matter of grouping by ID (all rows) and the nested tables should be somehow converted into rows (this keeps on row for each ID and adds columns for different rows). 

 

Regards,

Hi Urmas,

Thanks for clarifying. You can use Power Query to number rows grouped by ID, then Unpivot and append the number, before pivoting back. See file attached.
