Hi everyne,

 

Suppose that I have a data like this:

(It shows company A made 4 times transaction to company B, company C made 1 time transaction to company D etc..)

 

A B 4

C D 1

A E 3

 

I need to transform this data like this:

 

 

ID Target

1 A

1 B

2 A

2 B

3 A

3 B

4 A

4 B

---------4 (A,B)

5 C

5 D

---------1 (C,D)

6 A

6 E

7 A

7 E

8 A

8 E

----------3 (A, E)

 

How can I do that?

 

Thank you very much!
