How can I reorder this table so the column B data represents the month prior?

I have the following table:

Month                 Value
September             12
October               78
November              88
December              132

I want to display the value of October in September, November in October and so on. The final output should look like this:

Month                 Value
September             78
October               88
November              132
December              Value of January

How can this be achieved? Please help. Thanks in advance.

try adding this to the end (assuming Value keeps growing):

...|sort 0 Value|streamstats window=1 current=f values(Month) as prevMonth|rename prevMonth as Month|where isnotnull(Month)

if Value doesn't keep growing and it is already sorted how you need it, just remove the sort command.

Rather than values(), I'd generally use last() -- or even better, latest(), if there is a _time field --but they are functionally equivalent in this case.
