So, @Anonymous  

you can, for example create a new calculated dimension table like

 

dimDropDown = 
UNION(
    SELECTCOLUMNS(DISTINCT('Table'[Analyses Stage]);"dropDown";[Analyses Stage]);
    SELECTCOLUMNS(DISTINCT('Table'[BS Stage]);"dropDown";[BS Stage]);
    SELECTCOLUMNS(DISTINCT('Table'[Development Stage]);"dropDown";[Development Stage]);
    SELECTCOLUMNS(DISTINCT('Table'[RD Stage]);"dropDown";[RD Stage])
)

 

 

then add to this new tables your 6 columns:

 

AnalysesStageCount = calculate(countrows('Table');'Table'[Analyses Stage]=EARLIER(dimDropDown[dropDown]))
BSStageCount = calculate(countrows('Table');'Table'[BS Stage]=EARLIER(dimDropDown[dropDown]))

 

and so on..

then just add it to the visual Matrix

Hi @Anonymous 

Unfortunately it is impossible to give you a correct advice without example of your data model.

But I will try. If you have a simple table like

ProductStageDrop-Down
AStage 1not started
AStage 1on progress
AStage 2completed
BStage 2not started
BStage 2on progress
CStage 3completed

 

so, there is no some more easy way then to create a Matrix visual,

add Stage field as Columns,

Drop-Down field as Rows,

Product field add as Value, then pres narrow near product and choose count

 

then go to the Format sectin and disable row subtotals:

Thanks alot @az38  for quick reply  ,,, 

let mak it more clear, i will present the same table : 

 

 

Product TypeProduct NamBS StageRD StageAnalyses StageDevelopment StageQuarter
Pmoonin progressin progresscompletedin progressQ1
SCarcompletedcompletedcompletedcompletedQ2
EABwatingin progresscompletedin progressQ3
PDCHoldcompletedin progressHoldQ4
SLMcompletedHoldin progressin progressQ5

 

 

As you see the stages is clumns "BC Stage, RD stage ,,,,," , and every stage there is 3 status " inprogross, Complated, Hold, Waiting".

 

So we do start by product tyep " As oyu see we do have 3 P,S,E". And product name then stages for every product

It’s just a new column name.
So, there could be 2 problems: first replace double quotas “ to ordinary ‘
Second, replace all ; to commas ,
Third, try both solutions 🙂 it is a system locale question
