Display text values in a Matrix visual

Hi,

 

I am trying to create a Matrix visual to show 'Status' of solutions. The status field contains text values and when pulled into values section of a matrix it either takes First or Last values in that field as expected. For this, I have created a measure like below and added that to the values section, this does give me values but ignoring 2 records that are corresponding to blank quarters. Is there a way to fix this or a different approach to show text values in a matrix without any summarization.

 

Measure = SELECTEDVALUE(SOLUTIONS_PROJECT[STATUS])

 

Output from MeasureOutput from MeasureExpected OutputExpected Output

Thanks in advance

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

You may need to enable the "Show items with no data" option for the rows of Matrix visual.

Hi @v-xicai ,

 

Thanks for the response. I did enable the "Show items with no data" but didn't get the output that I wanted. Feel like SELECTEDVALUE function is not working in this case, Is there any other way to display text values in a matrix visual.

 

In the below image we can see that the SELECTEDVALUE function is returning Blank when there is more than one Launch Quarter.
