Calculate the difference between two columns in a matrix when each row is a measure.
Hello,
I'm working on a matrix in Power BI that compares transaction types ACTUAL vs FORECAST. Each row is it's own calculated measure. Is there any possible way to create a difference column?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I am not sure if that is possible. I depends upon the data layout. If you could share your PBI file, i can take a look.

Besides, for more advice, please post some dummy data of source dataset table.

Due to the fact that the measures used different figures in their calculations (volumes, revenue, etc.), I determined that it was not possible to achieve what I needed to via a matrix. I had to resort using cards with visual level filters for each field. It worked, but it took a long time to construct.
