Create table with nested columns

I am not sure what the proper terminology is for this so I have attached captures below to better illustrate my goal.

I am trying to make a data set that looks like this:

And format it to look like this:

I have tried untable/xyseries but it does not seems to work because I have more than 1 "y" field. I basically want to recreate an excel pivot table in Splunk to automate a daily task.

This is not currently possible with native visualizations. However, you can create and extend the SplunkJS stack such that you can create the table as shown. Would take some skills with Javascript and HTML.

This seems like an oversight by Splunk if they really want to be competitive...
