CHALLENGE: Unpivot financial data (reverse pivot)
I have a challenge for this awesome community.... has anyone successfully found a way to unpivot data? I need to take columnar data ($ per month with each month in a column) to become row data (each project and month on a row).
I need to do this in order to mesh user-entered horizontal forecasts, with Oracle-sourced vertical actuals. I do realize I could pivot the Oracle vertical data and then run some comparisons, but I feel like there's a more elegant way to do this that wouldn't rely on hard-coding months or other pieces. I can think of other use cases for this, like a timecard entry for example.
