Data can be messy! In other words, it is not always clean and neat. Data comes from various sources like text files, Excel spreadsheets, databases, report files, etc. This is where most data analysis projects fail - the inability to get the correct data.
This class focuses on using Power Query (Get and Transform in Excel 2016) to clean, shape and transform your messy data while still allowing you one click refresh. We will review various data issues including appending files, combining multiple files from a folder, adding custom columns, unpivoting data, creating a lookup table, and much more.
This event may be a rebroadcast of a live event and the instructor will be available to answer your questions during the event. Highlights
