Matrix Visual - Attributes on Different Rows

Hi

 

I have a table of transactions that includes a Start Date along with two attributes, Transaction Type and Fulfilled.

 

Transaction Type is simply a three letter code and Fulfilled is just a 1 or 0.

 

Start DateTransaction Type     Fulfilled
31/03/2025     ARY0
31/03/2025     ARY1
31/03/2025     QXN1
31/03/2025     TRP0
07/04/2025     QXN0
07/04/2025     QXN1
07/04/2025     TRP1
07/04/2025     TRP1
07/04/2025     TRP0
07/04/2025     QXN1
07/04/2025     TRP0

 

I want to create a matrix visual with the Start Date as columns, and both the Transaction Type and Fulfilled as rows. The values would then just be the count of each Transaction Type and the count of 1s for Fulfilled:

 31/03/2025     07/04/2025
ARY     20
QXN     13
TRP     14
Fulfilled     24

 

The solution would also need to take into account that new Transaction Types can be added as time goes by, and these would need to be added to the matrix. Therefore, I ideally would like to avoid a situation where I had to update DAX with a new Transaction Type.

 

Totally at a loss as to how to acheive what I thought would be quite simple!

  • Hi Ormy28 

    The following dax measure should help you

    Total =
    VAR CountValue = CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[Transaction Type]))+0
    RETURN
    IF(
            ISINSCOPE('Table'[Transaction Type]),
                CountValue,
                CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[Fulfilled]),'Table'[Fulfilled] = 1)
    )

      Thanks for your reply.

       

      How would you then use this measure? I was of the understanding that measures could not be used as rows in a matrix visual?

  • This is how I set up the matrix:

     

     

    The measure is a values if I add a new Transaction type, it will be added automatically
