Chage data from query browser from columns to rows and col.

Hi, I read a similar topic, but it does not seem to be the same issue and I am very new at Xcelsius dashboards, actually this is my first one.
Using the query browser my data is coming in in the format like A2 - C10 (columns). I used MATCH,INDEX with arrays to change it to the format in H2 - M10. Which is what I would like. When I go to do my preview no data is showing up, just blanks. I believe I read on another source that arrays do not work once you got to preview because it is a flash viewer.

The number of business groups is fixed, but each group may not have any entries for a particular month. This needs to be a 12 month rolling chart, so the dates can not be fixed.

Originally I was using SAP Netweaver BW connections which worked fine, but since we are going to be using this through BOE, I had to change to the Query Browser connections.

So how can a rookie get data from the layout in A2 - C10 into a layout like H2 - M10 that will show up on the dashboard? Thanks much.

Hi

Yes, it’s possible, but why do this in Excel? If you are planning on getting your data via BOE when use a WebI Crosstab to do this for you.

Months across the columns

Business Groups down the rows
