Automaticly generate missing rows

Hi,

 

I'm facing an issue at work.

I've got a table with monthCode, city, action as columns, like so :

MonthCodeCityActions
1Dijon5
1Nevers2
1Autun8
2Dijon8
2Autun5
3Dijon11
3Nevers1
3Autun14

 

As you can see, Nevers onlys has records for the 1st & 3rd month but not the second.
I'd like to automaticly generate a row like this :

2Nevers0

 

Do you guys've got any idea if this is possible and give me a lead on this ?

I've tried something with powerquery & the ADDMISSINGITEM thingy with SUMMARIZECOLUMNS but it didn't work, as expected.

  • If you want to view records that are no available for months you can do following

     

    - Create a separate table for City

    - Create a separate table for MonthCode

    - Join Both table with this main table

    - Use City & MonthCode from those new tables in Table Visual

    - Use Actions from main table

    - in Table Visual fields right click on city and check "Show Items with no data"

    - you will get following results  as show in Table 2

      Thanks a lot for your answer Ahmed !

      I've managed to join my city and monthCode tables like this


      But, this might seems dumb, how do i join my main table with this one ?

        you need to create seperate table for each of Month Code & City and joined them in Data Model as shown below

         

         

        I have created those tables using simple approach of summarize on Main table

         

        City = SUMMARIZE(Table,Table[City])
