Hi all!
I'm creating a report on powerBI Desktop and the output might be the one following:
| Actual | Actual | Actual | Budget | Budget | Budget | ||||
| Business Unit | SQM | Revenue | Unit | SQM | Revenue | Unit | Delta SQM | Delta Revenue | Delta Unit |
| BU1 | 10 | 101 | 10,10 | 15 | 56 | 3,73 | - 5 | 45 | 6,37 |
| BU2 | 20 | 102 | 5,10 | 30 | 356 | 11,87 | - 10 | - 254 | - 6,77 |
| BU3 | 30 | 103 | 3,43 | 45 | 4.658 | 103,51 | - 15 | - 4.555 | - 100,08 |
| Total | 60 | 306 | 5,10 | 90 | 5.070 | 56,33 | - 30 | - 4.764 | - 51,23 |
I managed to do a matrix where i display Actual and Budget (the name of the column for scenery is merged above the 3 metrics sqm, revenue and unit) as you can see above but i can't figure out how to put those other measures outside the column - they have to be indipendent and not redundant.
Thank you for your kind help.
Have a nice day,
Filippo

Hi @Filippomonti ,
As far as I know, if you add separate measures like [Delta SQM]/[Delta Revenue]/[Delta Unit] in to matrix value field, matrix will expand based on Actual/Budget.
I suggest you to try to show them in Total field in matrix.
Measure should look like as below.
UnitSQM =
IF (
HASONEVALUE ( 'TableName'[Column in Matrix Column] ),
[UnitSQM],
[Delta SQM]
)
Then rename the subtotal name in visual format.

Then they need to move to the left, into the Row area of your Matrix visual.
