Creating Matrix displaying values and percent change

I have a table created that looks like the below 

PerDiem_1-1681499368844.png

 

I want to use this to create a matrix displaying the currency as the columns and using the values in Each of the T-1, t-2, and delta as the rows but I cannot get this to work. Below is an example in Excel of how I would like this to look.

Please see below for example data;

CurrencyT-1T-2Delta
AUD0.670550.67885-0.01238
CAD0.74810.7494-0.00174
CHF1.11821.1263-0.00724
EUR1.099551.1047-0.00468
GBP1.24161.25215-0.0085
JPY0.0074740.007534-0.00803
SGD0.75110.7567-0.00746

 

And here for an example of my ideal finished product in the form of a table;

Bonsoir,

Je vois deux solutions à votre problème : soit agir en amont dans Power Query en dépivotant les colonnes ou soit directement dans Power BI au niveau du visuel « tableau », aller dans « valeurs » puis « options » et activer « changer les valeurs dans les groupes de lignes plutôt que dans les colonnes ».

Good Morning J-B, 

 

The Pivoting/un-pivoting was my first thought as well, but the formatting was always off based on the sample data. I can step back the data and put it into a format that will pivot nicely, but that is before the Delta column was calculated and so the data is incomplete in a way;

After adding it to a table or matrix in power bi, is there a way to change the total row to show a % change between the rows as opposed to a simple total?

 

Thanks.

Hi, a quick follow up. When trying to reformate dynamically so only the total row is a percentage, I cannot select Dynamic in the format dropdown. How do I access that option so I can copy your formatting, as that is the ideal solution?

you need to enable that in the preview feature section of the settings.

It would seem that that feature would interest me. Thank you!
