I want to create a nice overview of responsibilities in a system, and I have received an output of responsibilities entries in the system in the format of rows of username, responsibility description and responsibility ID.

I want to transform this list into a matrix such as the following:

Select columns A:C
Under the insert tab select pivot table,
Drag the field UserName to the rows section
Drag Responsibility field to the columns section
Drag Responsibility_ID to the values section, and choose the value count.



Thank you, you are a beautiful human being. This worked perfectly in the first attempt.
