I have a data table in PowerBi and full of fines.
All the records have a category, # of individuals involved, and fine amount field.
I want to plot every category on a risk matrix (frequency vs severity) where the x-axis is frequency (sum of individuals involved of each category) and where the y-axis is severity (sum of fine amount of each category). And then the plots are labeled by category.
What would be the best way to accomplish this? I'm new to PowerBi so apologies if this is a silly question. Thanks

Hi @gojets1721 ,
I created some data:
You can choose "Get more visuals" - Risk Matrix by Profitbase
Create calculated column:
frequency =
COUNTX(
FILTER(ALL('Table'),
'Table'[category]=EARLIER('Table'[category])),[ of individuals involved])severity =
SUMX(
FILTER(ALL('Table'),
'Table'[category]=EARLIER('Table'[category])),[ of individuals involved])
