Activate/deactivate column sum automatically?

To optimize the table I am looking for a way to show column total only if mininum 2 columns (=periods) are available.

 

Status Quo:

  • Not per se, in a matrix visual either you show all the totals/subtotals or you don't. How I usually handle these cases is through bookmarks.

    1. Duplicate the same visual you have but leave all totals turned off. Then hide it with the Selection pane.

    2. Then create a bookmark showing the one that does have the totals and hides the other one.

    3. Create another bookmark to do the opposite (show no totals/hide totals)

    4. Use a bookmark navigator button to enable the switch to the user.
