Hi Anonymous,

 

You mean you have table like this? And many more columns?

 

 

 

If so, how about unpivoting them?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then we can group them. Open the Drill mode. If we click the column, it expand all members of the group.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Best Regards!

    Hi Anonymous,

     

    How about unpivoting them into rows? For example, one column is "Date". All the rows will be dates. If we want to sum up by month, we only need to add a condition "month([Date]) = 1". While if the dates are in columns, we have to do it like this: [column1] + [column2] + ... ... + [column31].

     

    Best Regards!
