I took your data and created an IDEA file.
I then created a pivot table.
In the pivot table I used the name as the row, grant name as the column and amount as the data.
In the icons at the top I selected the last one and clicked on the drop-down arrow and selected Send to IDEA Database, this will only be there if you one have one row for each item.
I then click on the Send to IDEA Database
And it created the following database:
