Is there ant methods to perform it efficiently in SAS DI?

As I have tried using transpose transformation and it just allows me to transpose one column to one output column each time, i.e, I need to perform the transformation 2 times to achieve the above results.

Post test data in the form of a datastep in a code window (its the {i} above post area).  At a guess:

data have;
  x1="a"; x2="b"; x3="c"; x4="d";
run;
data want (keep=want:);
  set have;
  array vals{4} x:;
  do i=1 to 4 by 2;
    want1=vals{i};
    want2=vals{i+1};
    output;
  end;
run;

I would try SAS/IML.
Would you like IML code ?
