Aggregation of dynamic columns in a table through slicer selection.

[Keerthika]

Hi all,
I am having a dataset like as shown below,
Customer      Order Item     Order Number    revenue
A                    Pen                 500                       10
A                    Pencil              501                       15
B                    Pen                  502                       10
C                    Book                503                       100
B                    Pen                   504                        20

I want to select dynamic columns through slicer selection

Customer,order item, order number,revenue are my slicer values.

I used unpivot columns in query editor and it is working fine, but the problem is aggregation of revenue doesnt happen when attributes are selected.
My final result should be like below,
1)When Customer and revenue are selected

Customer   revenue
A                 25
B                 30
C                 100
2) when customer,order item and revenue are selected,my table is as
Customer    order item   revenue

A                   Pen            10
A                   Pencil         15
B                   Pen             30
C                   Book          100

If anyone can find solution, it would be helpful.
Thanks

Hi @Keerthika 

It could not be aggregated because all the data types are different in the values column after unpivot all the columns.If you only unpivot Order Number and revenue columns as attachment,it could work well.For your requirement,you may try to use bookmark and buttons to achieve that.

Hi @v-cherch-msft ,

Using Bookmarks and Buttons aren't the effective solution. I can't use bookmarks and buttons for every columns(I am having nearly 100 columns).

And Why a question is automatically accepted as a solution eventhough I didnt mark as.
