Hi, our client currently has an Excel sheet wherein they count customers using a specific category by date (see screenshot below).
I'm new to Power BI so I'm wondering if it's possible to recreate this layout. Thank you.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous,
You can the 'week end date' as column, 'category' as row, 'name' field with aggregate mode 'count' on value to create a matrix visual to achieve your requirement.

@Anonymous , Select the first column and use unpivot other columns in Power query -> Transform Tab

Hi @amitchandak , I believe it's not a pivot column, they just manually added the numbers and just want me to replicate it in Power BI. The source looks like this.
