Flatten data in Tableau (not exactly pivot)












1















I am looking for flattening the data in Tableau as shown below:



Following is the input format I have:



ID CUST_ID GROUP Code



1234 25 HAN1 MD



1234 25 RO HN



1234 25 WL C



1234 25 M NAPP



2345 8 HAN2 MR



2345 8 RO HN



2345 8 WR SW



Following is the output format:



ID CUST_ID GROUP Code Group Code Group Code Group Code



1234 25 HAN1 MD RO HN WL C M NAPP



2345 8 HAN2 MR RO HN WR SW



I know I can achieve that using a programming language but I am not able to get in Tableau. Can anyone please help with that?
