How can I combine multiple fields results in to single column with common name for example Test1, Test2, Test3 and so on up to Test 20  with a common word as "Test" in all the fields (either using foreach or any other solution)?

Test1 Test2  Test3 Test4 Test5 Test6 Test7 Test8
               
1 6 11 16 21 26 31 36
2 7 12 17 22 27 32 37
3 8 13 18 23 28 33 38
4 9 14 19 24 29 34 39
5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40

 

Result: 

Test21

1

2

3

4

5

6

7

8

9

so on 

 

Any help would be appreciated.

You could do this

| foreach Test* [ eval Data=mvappend(Data, '<<FIELD>>') ]
| stats values(Data) as Data
| mvexpand Data
| sort Data

which will create a new field Data with all the values of the Test* fields and then it depends on what you want to do.

stats will collect all values of fields present into a single row with all values, then mvexpand/sort will expand them all to separate rows. 

If you have duplicate numbers anywhere, they will be removed, so it depends on your output requirements
