Creating matrix with data outside column

Hi all!

I'm creating a report on powerBI Desktop and the output might be the one following:

 ActualActualActualBudgetBudgetBudget   
Business UnitSQMRevenueUnitSQMRevenueUnitDelta SQMDelta RevenueDelta 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.

     

    Best Regards,

  • they have to be indipendent and not redundant

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