I'm trying to make a scheduling spreadsheet to keep track of tasks at work. I have access to a file with our finished products and the components that are required, which I am using to populate the required tasks to be done. Basically, it is formatted as:
Finished Good | Component | Cut Cable | Cut Wire | Cut Shrink1 | Cut Shrink2 |
1111 | Cable | x | |||
1111 | Wire | x | |||
1111 | Heat Shrink1 | x | |||
1111 | Heat Shrink2 | x | |||
2222 | Wire | x | |||
3333 | Wire | x | |||
3333 | Heat Shrink2 | x |
My desired output is:
Finished Good | Cut Cable | Cut Wire | Cut Shrink1 | Cut Shrink2 |
1111 | x | x | x | x |
2222 | x | |||
3333 | x | x |
What is the best way to achieve this? I have simplified this a lot, and not all components have a required task associated. The file I am using has around 250K rows.
Thanks

@DylanG Although, I've never tried a pivot table on a 250K rows data set, such a table could handle the task. But since you already are using Power Query, it takes only three steps to achieve the same.
Both are demonstrated in the attached workbook.
