Hi Anonymous ,
You may try the following formula to create a table:
New table for slicer = var _t1=CROSSJOIN(SELECTCOLUMNS({"Quantity"},"Name",[Value]), SELECTCOLUMNS('Table',"Value",[Quantity])) var _t2=CROSSJOIN(SELECTCOLUMNS({"Value"},"Name",[Value]),SELECTCOLUMNS('Table',"Value",[Value])) return UNION(_t1,_t2)Best Regards,

Anonymous Yes, you can unpivot your table in the Power Query and that will make your columns into rows and, you can use it for slicer.

Value is actually a calculated column and Quantity is a natural column. so i could not see Value column in the Power Query
