Building matrix/table using measures
- 2 years ago
Hi thomma
You can acheive it, but it will take some modelling and creating measures.
- In the ribbon, click on Enter Data and create a Column with all the Values in column A of your screenshot
- Add a second column, we want to be able to sort the columns correctly, so give column A a numerical value so in your case for each row 1- 7
- Load the table and go to table view
- Highlight column A and go to the ribbon and go to Column tools > Sort by column and choose the numercial column
- You will then need to create sperate measures for each Row
Contracted Projects = CALCULATE( DISTINCTCOUNT('Project'[ID]), KEEPFILTERS ('Project'[Type] = "Contracted")Repeat the measures for each row then create this measure
Matrix View = SWITCH ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Project Matrix'[LineItem Desc] ), "Contracted projects", [Contracted Projects], "Already invoiced", [Already Invoiced], "To Invoice", [To Invoice], "Prospects (100%)", [Prospects - 100%), "Prospects (75%)", [Prospects - 100%), "Total prospects", [Total Prospects], "Estimated Revenue", [Estimated Revenue])This will show everything in one row, to acheive what you have in the Screenshot, you will need to create two further measures in the same format, but remove To invoice, total prospects and estimated revenue from the first emasure. In the second measure, just add To invoice, total prospects and in the thrird measure just add Estimated Revenue
Make sure that the Text in the measure matches that of your generated table

Hello thomma ,
You can use ROW function to combine multiple measure and make a single table using UNION overall syntax looks as below:
Firstly Go to modelling in Power BI Desktop and click on New Table
Then give some name for table and its DAX calculation should look as below:
Table_Name =
Union(
ROW(.........................................................),
ROW(.........................................................),
)
You can use this in a Matrix visual.
