Unpivot means to create rows from columns. For example if you have a sales report and the months Jan - Dec are each reported in its own column. By Unpivoting we "shrink" this report with 12 columns for the months into a tabular format where all months are consolidated in one column and the data is shown in the rows. This way your data is properly structured for further analysis.
