How to condense column data in excel at a change in the row data - excel

Question

I'm not sure exactly how to explain this, but I want to combine rows in Excel while condensing the column data. I'm looking to take a spreadsheet like this:
Name
Coffee
Bananas
Chocolate Ice Cream
Tom
4
Tom
2
Tom
2
Jerry
1
Jerry
4
Amanda
3
Amanda
2
and turn it into this:
Name
Coffee
Bananas
Chocolate Ice Cream
Tom
4
2
2
Jerry
1
4
Amanda
3
2
Any tips would be super helpful.

Answer 1

You can setup a pivot table for this.
Select your table > Insert Pivot Table, then follow this screenshot:
Drag Name colum in Rows
Drag Coffee, Bananas, Chocolate ice creams in Values and you're set!

Answer 2

If you want the data transformed and cleansed, you can always use PowerQuery.
Go to Data -> Get Data -> From File -> whatever source your data is in.
In there, use the Group By function to suppress the rows.
From there, you'll have a new set of data which can then be loaded into the destination worksheet.
If the usage of PowerQuery is new to you, a quick Google search will help you through this.
Naturally, this assumes you have a version of Excel that has PQ built in.

Answer 3

Here/screenshot(s) refer:
Condensed table comprises 3 sections (colour coded respectively):
Row labels (names, blue) - assuming these are unique at source
Column labels (food product, green) - ditto
Values (sum per row / col label, yellow)
note: included an extra '1' for Tom + Chocolate IC in 1st row for testing...
1] Row labels
=UNIQUE(D7:D13)
(array function - requires Office 365 compatible version of Excel)
2] Col labels
=E6:G6
(array function - enter in single cell if using Office 365 compatible version of Excel, otherwise highlight relevant area and enter function with shift + alt + enter)
3] Values
=SUMIFS(INDEX($E$7:$G$13,0,MATCH(J$6,$E$6:$G$6,0)),$D$7:$D$13,$I7)
(can drag this function across values / yellow section)
