Hello Community,
I worked with powerBI 3 years ago. Now I have to switch back to powerBI from tableau. I am trying to create a table/matrix with multiple columns and rows which i have easily acheived in tableau. However, I am trying to do something similar to that and I couldn't acheive it powerBI due to the limited matrix/table visulazations.
I am trying to acheive something like the below image in powerBI. I have multiple columns & multiple rows where I am trying to pivot a table & add some calculations to it. How can i acheive this?
I really appreciate if anybody can direct me to acheive this.
Hi Isha_Learner ,
You seem to be drilling down into the columns, try 'Rows' instead.
Best Regards
Hello @Tahreem24
When I add my columns and rows they are going into compact form like the below screenshot.
To avoid this collapsed sheet. I tried to drill down and use tabular layout. I am still having issues. I have to expand every row to show in the data.
I have huge data and expanding each and every row is not something i can think of.
I really appreciate your help for reposnding to this issue.
@Isha_Learner In order to drill down all the levels so use the below icon:
Hi @Tahreem24
If you see the second image. I have used the drill down and only columns expanded. But My rows did not expanded.
@Isha_Learner I tried at my end and I can make the switch between columns and rows. If not in your case, I suggest you to close and re-open your pbix file and then check.
@Isha_Learner Could you exlain what issue are you facing in Power BI? In matrix visual, you can also add fields in Row and Column options
