If you unpivot columns 'Q1', 'Q2', and 'Q3' in a sales table, what will the new columns be named by default?
A'Q' and 'Amount'
B'Quarter' and 'Sales'
C'Attribute' and 'Value'
D'Category' and 'Total'
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Recall default column names after unpivot

    Power Query names the new columns 'Attribute' for original column names and 'Value' for their data.
  2. Step 2: Check other options

    Other names like 'Quarter' or 'Sales' are not default; they require manual renaming.
  3. Final Answer:

    'Attribute' and 'Value' -> Option C
  4. Quick Check:

    Default unpivot columns = Attribute and Value [OK]
Quick Trick: Default unpivot columns are 'Attribute' and 'Value' [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Assuming custom names appear automatically
  • Confusing unpivot with rename step
  • Expecting original column names to stay
