Data Layout Query

Hi there,

 

I've gone with the approach to my data of having it vertically as an example below in a) so that I can filter through that value to display in the dashboard slicer , instead of b), so that the slicers can run a lot smoother through my report like in c) instead of too many bookmarks.

 

a)

b)

c)

My question is, after displaying my data in the format of a), is there a way that I can then display it as b) in a drillthrough table, even though its in the same column? 

 

I hope that makes sense

 

Thanks

@lherbert501 , You can create measures and use field parameters or calculation groups

Hi @amitchandak 

 

If I have two views of a stacked chart (profit and sales)  . As there is two measures in each, is it possible to do this in a way that allows me to use the profit and sales button above to select whether I view the profit view or the sales view?

 

I almost need to be able to group both measures for the one option in the field parameter
