Creating a Matrix with a static column

Hello,

 

I have data that I am displaying in a Matrix.

The first column is a name, and then the rest of the columns are the month in which the data is collected. I would like to insert a column that is just a more detailed description of the first column. The end result would be a matrix with two static columns and then fluctuating date columns, but I can't find out how to insert the 'description' row into the matrix.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • The addional information belongs to the name? Than create a new column in the table where the name column is. Insert in this column your description and than add this column to "row" to the matrix. 

     

    Turn off under Format -> row header the +/- icon

    And make a drilldown and also turn off "stepped layout":

      Do you know how to add a total in bold to this?

  • Hello team! The user interface has updated a lot since this solution was posted, and I can no longer find where I can turn off "stepped layout". Does anyone have updates on how to achieve this in the new layout (in April 2025)? @andhiii079845
