Adding Custom Row to Matrix Table

Hi,

I'm looking to add some custom rows to a matrix table.

Currently I have been able to produce my data in the following format;

However I would like to add a custom calculated row which is ratio of the category subtotals.

However I would like to add a custom calculated row which is ratio of the category subtotals.

 

Data Model

I have a sales table and a returns table which are both connected to a lookup and calendar table.

Hi @Peppearson ,

 

The data in row field in matrix should be loaded in data model, so "Components/Bikes"/"Accessories/Clothing" should be in a column. Here I suggest you to add a Flag column like [Compare Part] column in your table.

Compare Part = 
IF('Table'[Category] in {"Bikes","Components"},"Components/Bikes","Accessories/Clothing")

Measure:

M_Sales = 
IF (
    ISINSCOPE ( 'Table'[Subcategory] ),
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ) ),
    IF (
        ISINSCOPE ( 'Table'[Category] ),
        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ) ),
        IF (
            ISINSCOPE ( 'Table'[Compare Part] ),
            SWITCH (
                SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Compare Part] ),
                "Components/Bikes",
                    DIVIDE (
                        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ), 'Table'[Category] = "Components" ),
                        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ), 'Table'[Category] = "Bikes" )
                    ),
                "Accessories/Clothing",
                    DIVIDE (
                        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ), 'Table'[Category] = "Accessories" ),
                        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ), 'Table'[Category] = "Clothing" )
                    )
            )
        )
    )
)

Result is as below.

M_Sales = 
IF (
    ISINSCOPE ( 'Table'[Subcategory] ),
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ) ),
    IF (
        ISINSCOPE ( 'Table'[Category] ),
        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ) ),
        IF (
            ISINSCOPE ( 'Table'[Compare Part] ),
            SWITCH (
                SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Compare Part] ),
                "Components/Bikes",
                    DIVIDE (
                        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ), 'Table'[Category] = "Components" ),
                        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ), 'Table'[Category] = "Bikes" )
                    ),
                "Accessories/Clothing",
                    DIVIDE (
                        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ), 'Table'[Category] = "Accessories" ),
                        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ), 'Table'[Category] = "Clothing" )
                    )
            )
        )
    )
)
