Power Pivot not Appending - again

Hello there

Last time I posted a query, I had the dates in the actual and budget sheets with different dates (01/07/2021 v 21/07/2021) so Power Pivot would not append budget and actuals.  This time I have checked the formatting up, down, and inside out for both sheets and on this one allocation line (1007 - achieve rate) it will not append.  All other allocation lines work in exactly the same file, but not this one.

Is anyone able to have a look and assist, please?

Many thanks and have a great evening!

Is this the type of presentation you are looking for?  If so, it is a merge (join) in PQ and not an append

 

File attached

Hello Alan

I can't download the file you attached - would you mind uploading again?

I tried merging, and excel won't allow me to complete the steps required, as the final 'OK' button is greyed out.  I am possibly doing something wrong, but it seems pretty intuitive...

I have followed a tutorial from Mynda called 'Combine Excel Worksheets with Power Query, and she definitely appends and then groups the data.  The process has worked just fine with all my other data - just not this one allocation code.

Many thanks
