Values in matrix based on wild characters in the categories and sub categories

I am working on data which has the details of tickets received in a particular duration and I have created visualisations to reflect some menaingfule data.

My requirement is to categorise the tickets according to category and sub category in order to create a matrix and a line chart to reflect the trend of tickets received in a time series based on the matrix column and further create a time series graph for the selected value in slicer.

 

For example: I have categories such as Orange, red, green and sub categories as Orange pen,Orange ink, Red pen and Green pen.

The matrix should show the valuesin such a way that corressponding to sub categories there should be number of occurences accordingly.

                                       --------Time Labels---

Orange                              2

    Orange pen                 1

    Orange ink                   1

Red                                       1

    Red pen                         1

Green                                 1

    Green pen                    1

 

Something like this.

Can someone guide me how can this be achieved?

@PC2790 ,The information you have provided is not making the problem clear to me. Can you please explain with an example.
Can you share sample data and sample output in table format?

Thankyou for the informative link that provides informatin about matrix.

Let me clarify my problem for you.

I have a table - Incidnet data containing all the details of the incidents received and in what category(Service Offering).

I want to create a matrix that would show me these service offerings according to years/months/weeks(I'll provide a slicer for the user to choose).

The requirement was to show a matrix with service offering field as sub category along with a high level classification on the basis of service which I want to use as a category.

 

To achieve this, I created another table - Service Offering mapping that contains the mapping of a Service(category) along with Service offering(sub category).

Now using these two tables, I want to show the matrix something like below:

                                        2018                2019              2020

Category1

    Subcategory 1

Category2

    Subcategory 2

    Subcategory 3

Category3

    Subcategory 4

 

I hope I made the requirement clear.

@PC2790 

You can create a measure to count the number of tickets and add it to the matrix in the 2nd page. Let me know if this is not what is you are looking for.

Ticket Count = COUNTROWS(IncidentData)

Thankyou for coming back...However there are two set of data that I have.

1) Incident data - containing field service offering

2) Service Offering Mapping - containing mapping of service and service offering.

 

That is the reason I can't simple user countrows as the logic should contain referring Service Offerin Mapping data to get the values from Incident data
