Hello All,

I have a dashboard that I need to extract data from to turn into a vertical style report to be able to run pivots and other things with the data.

From the dashboard, I need to grab the headers from Cells (A13:I13) and then get the details starting at row 15. For any Series value that has a Series Validation that equals "Good" then get the numeric values that are in columns J:End of Report (Sample data ends at Column V) and get the corresponding date where the value was pasted from row 12. I do not need the Series name that is at the end of the dates, this was more of a visual thing, so I just need the Numeric Values and the corresponding dates in the table from columns J:V (V is the current end of the sample, actual data is much longer)

Data Dump


Here is what the desired result would look like. The series value repeated with every iteration of Numeric value and Corresponding date. If the Series Validation for that row = "Invalid Dates" then skip the entire row.
Highlighting was to make it easier for anyone helping to see where one values starts and ends.

Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks!

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
Ok, I was able to get to this point from using a macro from another project but now I am hitting a 2 roadblocks. Any suggestions are appreciated.

#1 For some reason my LastCol Declaration for last column goes out to 139 Columns which is correct, but when the array code finishes it is stopping at column 26? Not sure why?
#2 When the code gets the row data from my dashboard any value that has a dash like "1-3" gets converted to a date when the output gets populated on my Data Dump Sheet, my knowledge is limited on how to fix this issue.
