I have an expenses table with arrears columns by period: ARREARS_0-3_HT, ARREARS_0-3_TVA, ARREARS_3-6_HT, etc.
In Power BI, I’ve unpivoted these columns to create two new columns:
Period (0-3, 3-6, 6-9, 9+)
Type (HT or TVA)
My goal is to create a matrix where:
Columns represent the hierarchy Period → Type.
Rows are my dimensions (e.g., RAISON, property, etc.).
I want to add the TTC column as a row-level total, outside of the Period → Type hierarchy.
The problem: when I add TTC directly to the matrix values, Power BI tries to split it according to the column hierarchy, so I don’t see it as a total per row. I want TTC to appear outside the Period → Type blocks.
I tried creating a simple measure SUM(TTC), but it still gets split. I think I need a measure that ignores the column hierarchy, but I’m not sure about the exact syntax or the best way to place it in the matrix.
Here is a screen :
So I want to add the TTC side of the hierarchy bloc.
thank you all 🙂

To show TTC as a separate column outside the Period → Type hierarchy in your Power BI matrix:
- Create a disconnected table with one value: "TTC".
- Build a measure like TTC_Display = IF(SELECTEDVALUE(DisplayColumns[Display]) = "TTC", SUM(Expenses[TTC])).
- Use this table as your column header in the matrix, alongside your existing hierarchy.
Hello Shahed Shaikh,
I tried the technique of creating a disconnected table “DisplayColumns” with a single value “TTC” and the measure, I obtain this
in my matrix where I already have the Period → Type hierarchy.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t work as expected: TTC appears for every Period → Type block, so next to Montant, instead of being a single column outside the hierarchy.
I’m still looking for a way to make TTC appear as a row-level total, independent of the Period/Type columns.
