Need help separating and transposing this data please!

[djung]

Hello,

I have over 8,000 of these continuous information. Looking at the screenshot you will see the 'Day' column. 1 is Monday, 2 is Tuesday, 3 is Wednesday, and so on. I need to get the times to transpose into one row for each store ID. Instead of having seven store ID's, I need one store ID per a row. There would be 14 Columns total per a Store ID because there are seven days and Open and Close for each day. Is there a way to quickly do this?

Thank you so much!

A pivot table works great for this purpose.

What you gonna do with the transposted data?

You get better help if you post an excel example, without confidentional information.

It also helps if you add the desired (expected) data in the same sheet.

Like so, list the storeIDs in column G, then the one formula is in H3, copy that down and across as far as needed.

It's not confidential, it's public info. Just to be safe though I replaced the info so nothing to be worried about. I like the pivot table idea, but wasn't able to get mine like yours. I tried replicating it down to the format of H:MM AM/PM but I just have the average of open and closed leading to all the data to be #DIC/0!

Ok I just copied JBeaucaire's formula, but I wanted to teach myself on perfecting the pivot table and that formula. I guess I can do it some other time. Thanks JBeaucaire and Melvinobb!

Right Click the Pivot Table - Select "PivotTable Options" - under "Format" set "for error values show:" to Closed.

Hey Jbeaucaire,

I can't close it yet because I did your formula and it looked great, but as I went down the list I noticed that it stopped working and put a false and identical time for the rest of the rows. I can't figure out why. When I redo it, the row number where it stops working changes. It's very odd. Any ideas?

Thank you!

can you see the above post please?

djung - When oeldere posted, he was recommending you post a sample excel workbook, rather than an image file. It probably would be beneficial here.
It is very difficult to tell why the formula is not working without seeing your workbook.

I can only guess that you need to change the range in the formula provided:
=INDEX($C$2:$D$22, MATCH($G3&"-"&H$1, INDEX($A$2:$A$22&"-"&$B$2:$B$22, 0), 0), MATCH(H$2, $C$1:$D$1, 0))

The formula works if your data is in rows 2-22. change the "22" to the row your data ends in.

I'd love to see these "false times". The formula is using Exact-matching so it should give errors when a match isn't found, not a false match.

Looking forward to see your implementation of my solution. Perhaps you should just drop all your data into my workbook?

I wasn't able to upload it. May be too big. I had to cut out the complete formula input and also had to cut out almost half of the data.

Thanks

Uploading a sample workbook helped clarify why the pivot table option was not working for you.
The reason the pivot table wasn't working is because your Open and Close times are not recognized as times.
To accomplish this, put this formula in columns E & F:

You can then make your pivot table based on those columns.

My formula approach would work if you adjusted the range of the references from 21 rows to however many rows you have in your data. But it will kill your computer in calculations. I wouldn't recommend it.
