Hello,

I have the data as below :

I would like to create the table/Matrix as below:

category	Sub Category	Number of Model	Nb VM	VM Windows	VM Linux	VM other	Nb Host	Model 1	Nb Host	Model 2	Nb Host	Model 3	Nb Host	Model 4	Nb Host
APTTYV1V	CL_MU_FGT	3	720	0	710	10	20	C4580_Ec7502_1_32	10	D4000_c7502_1_32	5	R2000_c7502_1_32	5
APTTYV1N	CL_MU_F30	2	200	20	170	10	4	C4580_Ec7502_1_32	1	A2000_c7502_1_32	3
APTTYV1BV	CL_RG_AZE	4	200	20	170	10	10	C4580_Ec7502_1_32	2	A2000_c7502_1_32	3	R2000_c7502_1_32	4	E2030_c7502_1_32	1

1. The columns "Model 1, 2, 3 ,4 " is the list of avalaible models of each "Sub-category"

2. "Nb Host" is total of Host of each Model

Could you please advise?

Thank you in advance.

Hi @vnqt ,

Please create below measure, and add it to table visual.

Thank you for your solution, it works well until I filter by Catagory. This slicer uses Catagory column in another table which has the relation with this table.

When I apply the filter, the Model is empty but all other columns have value:

How could I replace the column Category of other table in all the measures that we've just created?

MAny thanks in advance.

Could you please advise how to add the total of HOST of each model ?

I have another column name CPO as below, could you help to calculate the sum of CPO of each Model ?

Hi @Greg_Deckler

I guess I wasn't clear enough.

The columns I would like to add is in blue and orange .

- The available model listed in the columns Model 1, Model 2, Model 3, Model 4 . Normally a Sub-category has max 4 model

- The number of host of each Sub-category by Model

Greg_Deckler · ‎09-12-2022

@vnqt Try:

Number of Models Measure = 
  COUNTROWS(DISTINCT(SELECTCOLUMNS('Table',"category",[category],"subcategory",[Sub Category],"model",[Model])))


Nb VM Measure = COUNTROWS(DISTINCT('Table'))
